Conan Rick's Investigator

Countless gray skeletons surged like goldfish surrounded by bait in a pond.

At this moment, a sharp cold light flashed among the group of skeletons.

Whoosh!

Along with this sharp sound of breaking through the air, the bodies of several skeleton monsters were cut into two pieces with one knife.

Then, six rays of cold light flashed almost simultaneously.

The heads of more than a dozen skeleton monsters flew outward in a parabola shape, blooming like flowers among the skeleton monsters.

In the middle of the flower's stamen is Qin Zhibo.

And what he is holding in his hand is the only item that can be used in the dreamland - [Oath Keeping Sword]

"roar--!"

Qin Zhibo roared loudly, and with the roar, his arms burst out with their upper limit muscles.

Meat power.

The next second, he waved the sword in his hand and spun among the skeleton monsters.

The easiest way to deal with this kind of small spinning top that has no intelligence, slow movements, and relatively fragile body is mindless spinning.

The moment the sharp sword blade touched the skeleton monster, it encountered almost no resistance and chopped the extremely decayed bones into pieces.

A large amount of bone fragments fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

Qin Zhibo seemed to have entered the invincible mode, frantically "mowing the grass" among the skeleton monsters.

After cutting for almost 20 seconds, Qin Zhibo felt dizzy and couldn't bear it anymore, so he stopped.

He inserted the Oath Keeper Sword on the floor, holding the hilt and grid of the sword with his hands, and bent down to lower his center of gravity, thus maintaining his body's balance.

Is it almost done now?

Qin Zhibo squinted his eyes slightly, panting heavily while observing his surroundings in a shaky field of vision.

Now, most of the skeleton monsters have been killed.

But there are still a small number of skeleton monsters standing a little further away, stepping on the bones and debris of their companions without fear of death, and walking towards them.

"hateful……"

"Let's just chop them all off..."

Resisting the dizziness, Qin Zhibo stood up again.

Although these power sources are cut off, passengers need to paddle the remaining distance by themselves, but fortunately, it is less than a day's journey from land.

Qin Zhibo took frivolous steps and was about to approach the last remaining skeleton monsters in the cabin when a strange noise suddenly came from the ground.

Looking down, I saw that the bodies of the chopped-up skeleton monsters were actually moving!

These bones seemed to be electrocuted, shaking wildly on the floor, and gathered into small piles of bones.

After a while, the bones were put back together into a skeleton monster.

It's just that the reassembled skeleton monster looks very deformed. The arms are leg bones, and the belly is the head... It's a completely messy piece.

But even so, it does not prevent these skeleton monsters from attacking again.

The skeleton monster closest to Qin Zhibo suddenly took action, grabbing the blade of the Oath Keeper Sword with five long and thin fingers.

Since it is bone, the blade itself cannot cut through the bone without a certain amount of strength.

But Qin Zhibo turned the sword with both hands and broke the five fingers of the skeleton monster.

The palm that was finally put together was broken up again.

But the skeleton monster is not discouraged, or this thing doesn't know what it means to be discouraged by failure.

He stretched his arm toward the floor, and the five twisted fingers were tremblingly reattached to his palm.

Can't be killed?

Qin Zhibo frowned slightly, a little surprised that these skeleton monsters, which looked like evil creatures at first glance, could not be killed by the Oath Keeper Sword.

In this case, these skeleton monsters are most likely controlled by some kind of existence.

If the controller is still alive, the Skeleton Monster can naturally "regenerate" infinitely.

But who is the controller?

where is it?

While Qin Zhibo was thinking, several skeleton monsters that had reassembled their bodies pounced on him again.

Qin Zhibo quickly retreated, avoiding the slow movements of the skeleton monster.

After staring at these skeleton monsters for a second, he decided not to get entangled with these monsters, which would only waste his energy in vain.

The only way now is to kill the being that controls the skeleton monster.

This controller is most likely hiding in this floor...

Qin Zhibo ignored the skeleton monster behind him and ran directly towards the end of the cabin.

Since the skeleton monsters were all attracted to the middle, there are no living creatures at either end of the cabin, only the oars extending from the hole to the outside of the hull.

With the moonlight seeping in from the entrance of the cave, Qin Zhibo ran while observing the surroundings and the ceiling, paying attention to whether there was anything different.

If there is a being controlling these skeletons

If it is something that looks like a skull monster, then it is most likely not a human.

There is magic in this world, and humans can also learn magic.

But if it were a human magician, he probably wouldn't do something so unclear.

If it's not a human being, it's probably some kind of intelligent being...

Qin Zhibo was running, but his path was blocked by a straight wall in front of him.

Judging from the disappearing oars and holes on both sides, it seemed that this was the end of the cabin, and there was no road ahead.

But in Qin Zhibo's perception, there should be some space there.

The hull structure of this black sailboat is relatively slender and shuttle-shaped from a bird's eye view.

If the front and rear ends of the interior cabin have straight walls, then there must be a triangular area of ​​hidden space.

It's just like the secret room in the real world, except that Qin Zhibo in this world can't see the investigation point.

What's in the wall in front?

Qin Zhibo stood there, not daring to move forward rashly, and unable to retreat.

Behind them is a group of unbeatable skeleton monsters. If you retreat, you will only be consumed.

The wall in front is an unknown risk. If there is something behind the wall, it is likely that it has noticed you by now and is waiting for you to take the initiative to approach.

That thing could attack him at any time.

But even if you stand here and do nothing, the skeleton monster will catch up later.

At this moment, the wall in front of Qin Zhibo suddenly moved.

There were suddenly three cracks in the middle of that huge straight wall.

Immediately afterwards, there was another crack in the middle of the rectangle formed by the three cracks, and the door made of the wall slowly opened from the middle.

As the door gradually opened, a huge shadow emerged from the darkness.

This is not human.

Definitely not human.

Through the meager moonlight in the cabin, Qin Zhibo could vaguely see the image of this monster.

This is a fat and huge individual, looking somewhat like a distant relative of a toad.

The surface of its skin is gray-white, with a liquid sheen, and it makes a sticky, disgusting sound every time it moves.

But that's not the most incredible thing.

When Qin Zhibo looked up, he noticed that this monster was almost as tall as the cabin ceiling and it had no head.

Without a head, there are no facial features to refer to.

Where the head used to be was the front end of a vaguely blunt snout, with a cluster of short, constantly trembling pink tentacles.

This is……

Qin Zhibo's eyes widened and he couldn't believe the scene in front of him.

In this cabin that seems to be run by human civilization, there is actually such a terrifying monster!

The ugliness of this thing is definitely not much better than that of Mi Go.

Qin Zhibo's eyes were looking at the monster's body, and he suddenly remembered that on the way from Usa to Dilas-Lingang, he had heard a merchant from Usa say that he should be careful about a certain race.

There is a race in the Dreamland called Moon Beasts.

As the name suggests, this race lives on the moon.

Unlike some other races that live in seclusion or far away from the human world, the moon beast race likes to interact with humans even though they live on the moon.

But if you think that the moon beasts are a very friendly race, you are totally wrong.

Their real purpose in dealing with humans is to take humans as slaves and bring them to the moon.

It is the Moon Beast's evil taste to enslave other races, and humans are the most favored slaves.

They will use various methods to bring slaves back to the moon for a lot of torture and torture as a pastime, seeking spiritual entertainment in the painful wails of other races.

Usa merchant told Qin Zhibo and Heiyu Kaidou to stay away as much as possible whenever they encounter gray-white, toad-like creatures.

只

However, it is now difficult to see moon beasts openly moving around in human towns.

Because after people gradually discovered the despicable and despicable hobbies of the moon beasts, they moved to underground work.

They began to hire human agents, disguised as ships leading to various places, and quietly carried out slave trading business.

They reached an agreement with some tribes in the northern continent, using rubies in exchange for cheap and reliable black slaves to board the ship.

Be careful of moon beasts and pray that you don't encounter one.

Otherwise, it will be worse than death.

Only then did Qin Zhibo realize that he had boarded the Moon Beast's pirate ship from the beginning.

I knocked out a drunk man at Dilas-Lin's dock and took the pass from his hand.

The slave that the moon beast was originally targeting was the drunkard.

And the three people wearing black turbans that I asked about in the bar later should be the human agents of the Moon Beast.

It turns out that from that time on, he had accidentally been involved in the situation arranged by the Moon Beast...

Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo's body couldn't help but shudder.

This is really bad luck.

Unexpectedly, he boarded this pirate ship in the place of a drunkard who drank to his death.

But the good news is that the moon beast's conspiracy has been discovered now, and as long as it doesn't reach the moon, it's not too late.

On the contrary, this moon beast has some bad luck, because it just needs the blood of a spiritual creature to complete the spiritual ascension of the illusory world.

As long as we defeat this one in front of us...

Qin Zhibo's eyes quickly calmed down, he held the sword in both hands in a defensive posture, and at the same time carefully observed the behemoth in front of him.

Although in terms of size, moon beasts have an absolute advantage over humans.

But the good thing is that the cabin is relatively narrow, and the larger size is not convenient. The advantage of the moon beast becomes a disadvantage.

In addition, with such a fat body, it is easy to hit him with his Oath Keeper Sword.

As for the means of the moon beast's attack...

While Qin Zhibo was making plans for the next attack, the shape of the moon beast blocking the center of the cabin suddenly changed.

The gray-white body that was originally like a hill suddenly began to shrink, and even the wrinkles on the skin shrank along with it.
