Shut up! I'm not a destroyer!

There are so many big trees full of history standing one after another, and it might just be cool during the day.

At night it is not just cool, but eerie.

Besides, it gets dark faster in the woods than outside. The big trees block the view. Maybe it’s just getting dark outside, but it’s already dark in the woods.

It was completely dark outside and you couldn't see your hand in front of you in the woods.

At this time, the trees on the roadside were moving closer to a direction where it was pitch dark.

Fortunately, there were still dim street lights, but they only illuminated part of the forest path and could not reach the depths of the woods.

According to Veneto's memory, there was a long way from the cafeteria to the teaching building, and there were trees on both sides of the road, which was almost like a primeval forest.

At this moment, she couldn't tell whether she had taken the wrong road or not. Anyway, the road on both sides looked scary and shadowy.

There were only five of them under the dim street lights on the entire street.

Wang Yuan also turned off the music because he felt something was wrong.

At this moment, everything was really silent, as if a ghost would jump out from somewhere at the next moment.

"Woooooooo..."

Suddenly, a discontinuous sound came from somewhere.

"Did you hear that?"

At this moment, Zhang Ning, who had heard the legend of the Admiral Academy, turned pale.

My mind is full of the ghost stories my grandparents told me when I was a child.

No. 82 Ghost? Shoot it

"What did you hear?"

Wang Yuan gritted his teeth and asked Zhang Ning back.

"It's a sobbing sound."

Zhang Ning's body shook honestly.

Children who grew up in the countryside have heard a lot of weird and supernatural things.

And most of them are passed down by word of mouth, which adds to the mystery.

No one has ever seen a ghost, but the old people in the village all tell the stories with confidence.

Out of recognition of the prestige of their elders, children will remember some things more or less.

Perhaps Zhang Ning himself is more inclined not to believe this.

However, if you stay in that kind of environment for a long time, when you encounter something that cannot be explained, some fictitious things will inevitably emerge in your head.

"No, you are thinking too much!"

Wang Yuan denied it immediately, but because of his urgency, Zhang Ning could tell that he was just strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

"Woooooooo..."

And that strange voice came out again, just the next second after Wang Yuan denied it.

Veneto imagined the scene of Wang Yuan being slapped on the face, making a loud 'slap' sound.

She was actually quite puzzled by her own thoughts at the moment.

Theoretically, she should be worried and scared at this time, but she didn't feel nervous at all.

I even felt like laughing because of my random thoughts.

Veneto thought about it and thought that it might be due to her confidence in her own abilities?

She is now someone who can take out a 381mm artillery.

Thinking about it this way, it seems understandable that I am not nervous when encountering such supernatural events.

All the monsters and demons are nothing but trash under 381.

I remember hearing a legend about their army before.

It is said that a general led his troops through a mass grave, and local residents said the grave was haunted.

At the general's command, artillery fire covered the entire mass grave.

Later on, there was no longer any ghost story, and all that was left of the mass grave was a big pit.

It’s a pity that Veneto can’t take out its own big treasure to suppress the enemy with artillery fire or something like that now.

"Damn it, this isn't going to happen for real!"

Zhang Ning jumped high on the spot and wanted to run back.

"Hey, what are you afraid of!"

Wang Yuan grabbed Zhang Ning.

Even she herself was shivering a little.

Just kidding, there are only 'four of them' in total, plus a ship girl.

One less person running away means one less person, and one less fright means one more point.

Besides, if Zhang Ning ran back alone, it would be equivalent to being left alone.

This is not the time for those plots in novels that forcibly lower one's intelligence, so of course it is more important to stick together.

Besides, there is no need to forcibly lower the intelligence to continue the plot.

"I don't think it's necessarily what you think. It could just be the wind blowing through the treetops."

Ouyang Lin is obviously the kind of person who prefers to use known common sense to understand strange things when encountering them.

Of course this does not mean that he is a staunch atheist.

This only shows that he has a strong Ah Q mentality and actively avoids some things by self-comfort.

It can also be said to be a way of thinking that will not shed tears until you see the coffin of your loved ones.

Perhaps because of his previous business experience, Ouyang Lin developed the habit of not jumping to conclusions about many things until the last minute.

At this time, he only heard some strange noises, but he didn't really see anything incredible, so he tried hard to interpret this incident in an understandable way.

"Yes, yes, it's just rumors, nothing wrong with it."

When Zhang Ning heard Ouyang Lin's words, he immediately agreed.

This child is also trying to find a way to escape.

"Woooooooo..."

However, the strange and very embarrassing sound suddenly became clear.

It felt like the source of the sound, which was originally far away from them, suddenly approached.

"Oh my god! Let's run!"

Zhang Ning was ready to run away again.

"Didn't you see that little Veneto didn't run away? How can you, a grown man, not even have a little courage?"

Wang Yuan put his arm around Veneto's shoulders and confronted Zhang Ning.

But Veneto could clearly feel that Wang Yuan's body was shaking.

This girl's mentality is similar to that of someone watching a horror movie.

Although I was scared, I wanted to continue watching.

But as the sound got closer, Veneto became a little frightened.

This has nothing to do with the self-confidence in my heart.

Even if there is no ripple in my heart, I feel that nothing will happen to me from the bottom of my heart.

But her inherent thinking told her that supernatural things were scary.

The conflict between her thoughts and intuition made her brain a little confused.

"That...that over there!"

Zhang Ning suddenly pointed to the depths of the dark woods beside the road.

Hearing his exclamation, everyone else's attention shifted in that direction.

All of a sudden, a cluster of dark blue appeared.

"Will-o'-the-wisp... cluck cluck."

Zhang Ning's teeth started to chatter in a very useless way, and the sound they made seemed even more creepy than that weird "woohoo" sound.

"Don't be afraid. Will-o'-the-wisp is phosphorus fire. It is phosphine produced by the decay of animal corpses. It has a very low ignition point and can spontaneously combust..."

Ouyang Lin quickly began to use science to explain the phenomenon before him.

Of course, given the current situation, it seemed more like he was explaining it to himself.

"Oh, it's something about chemistry. It scared me."

Wang Yuan patted his chest, looking frightened.

The next second, Wang Yuan's action of patting his chest froze.

The so-called will-o'-the-wisp seemed to have found its target and slowly floated towards the direction of the few people.

"Woooooooo..."

The strange sound did come from the direction of the ghost fire, and it became clearer and louder as it got closer.

"I'm so annoyed, it will just whine! Reputation, give it a shot and make it quiet down!"

A vein popped out on Veneto's forehead.

Her heart was just getting a little excited, and she was still wondering if something magical would happen to excite her.

Who would have thought that the 'monster' would show up now, and it was still making a 'woohoo' sound.

The little bit of excitement I felt suddenly disappeared.

Well, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust.

Veneto put his left hand on his waist, pointed in the direction of the will-o'-the-wisp with his right hand, and gave an order to Reputation.

"Yes! Admiral!"

Reputation smiled and saluted.

The ship's equipment slowly emerged behind her, and the barrel of the main gun rotated into place and locked with a click.

"Admiral, please come here."

Prestige beckoned Veneto.

"Hey? What's wrong?"

Veneto approached the reputation in a daze.

"It will be a bit noisy later."

Renown spun Veneto around so she could see the direction of the will-o'-the-wisp.

Then he took off his gloves and put them into his ship suit, and covered Veneto's ears with his bare hands.

Veneto only felt that his ears were covered by something warm, which was very comfortable.

He raised his short hands and touched them, only to realize that they were the hands of Reputation.

"Cover your ears!"

Wang Yuan kicked Zhang Ning and raised his eyebrows towards Ouyang Lin, who had covered his ears in confusion, signaling Zhang Ning to move faster.

Complete novice Zhang Ning quickly followed suit and covered his ears, just like when he watched Old Wang in the village set off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year.

"boom!!!"

Zhang Ning had just covered his ears when a huge fire broke out beside him, accompanied by a vibration that could make his heart and lungs stop.

He felt as if all his internal organs had shifted.
