Fishing Net

  Roy was startled by the scaly arm.

  He moved closer quietly, trying to push away the celery leaves in the frame to see what they were.

  But at the moment when he was stirring the celery leaves, Roy's hand suddenly stopped and he forced himself to turn around.

  Because under the illumination of the divine light, he had already seen clearly what was behind the shelves... That was the person he least wanted to see. Maybe he couldn't be called a human.

  The Naga killer I saw in the morning was actually hidden in the deepest part of the two rows of shelves.

  Roy was really worried that he would suddenly jump out and stab himself in the back.

  But he didn't seem to make any movements, not even moving his eyes. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of the gills on the back of his cheeks, Roy would have felt like he wasn't breathing at all just now.

  He was like a... salted fish leaning on the shelf.

  Could it be that he was disguising himself as a salted fish?

  He was like the stupid emperor in The Emperor's New Clothes, who had been exposed to the light but had no idea.

  And I firmly believe that others will not be able to see it...

  Roy calmly moved the glimmer of light away, trying to look normal. When he looked over, it was as if he was seeing shelves full of vegetables...

  As the glimmer of light in Roy's hand slowly moved away, the shelves and Janna Killer merged into the darkness again.

  Without the divine gleam illuminating that place, it is really impossible to see the Naga Killer...

  Roy turned around and realized that this Naga killer still had some concealment methods.

  But under the low-light Illumination Spell, he had nowhere to hide, but he didn't know it, and Roy pretended not to see it...

  At this moment, Roy felt that his heartbeat was very difficult to deal with and was about to be squeezed out of his throat.

  He didn't want to eliminate potential threats for the sailors on the ship, so he walked back calmly.

  Jasper was still standing there, thinking about what kind of reason he had to find to move the storage room to the oar room on the lower level. When he saw Roy coming over holding a ball of light, he immediately opened his eyes wide and shouted A voice:

  "Aiya, Roy, right here, don't let him escape..."

  Roy felt that Jasper would become a great actor if he went to the opera house.

  When he yelled into the air, the emotion he showed was very full.

  When he turned around, Jasper had already rushed out from his side, and he followed closely behind Jasper, carrying that sacred glimmer of light...

  …

  The door to the storage room was opened with a dull sound.

  The Naga Killer quickly hid his body in the shadow of the corner of the shelf.

  Then two people walked in outside the door, and then he realized that he had seen it wrong. It should be an elf and a human.

  Moreover, he had seen that youngster type in the morning, the youngster who escaped accidentally.

  It seemed that there was nothing wrong with catching him. The Naga killer stared at Roy. He was indeed a member of the ship, and he was also the weakest one.

  I have long guessed that he is not a good person. When I took action this morning, I should have been more ruthless...

  Seeing Roy and his companions whispering, the Naga Killer considered the two of them...it was not convenient for him to do it.

  Once discovered, his infiltration plan will be ruined...

  There were two sailors guarding the outer sect. He could clearly feel the smell of blood on the two sailors outside the door, which made him hide in the storage room and not dare to act rashly.

  Then he saw Roy walking towards him holding a lamp, but when he was almost in front of him, he suddenly turned around and passed by.

  As long as Roy takes another step closer, even if the Naga Killer is hiding in a dark corner, his feet will inevitably step on the Naga Killer's coiled tail fin.

  When the time comes, unable to hide even if he wants to, Janna Killer is ready to stab the dagger directly into his chest.

  For him, at a time like this... kill one and earn another!

  Unfortunately, just one step away from Naga Killer, Roy suddenly turned around and walked back...

  His elf companion is also a bit of an unfathomable mystery, and looked like an idiot when he first came in.

  At this moment, he actually started running in the narrow storage room and yelled unfathomable mystery.

  Naga Killer thought that he was discovered by those two people, but then he discovered that this was not the case at all...

  …

  In the storage room, Roy and Jasper one after the other ran outside, and when they were about to reach the door, Jasper suddenly stopped, holding a magic book and reciting a short prayer.

  Suddenly a holy light fell from the roof, like a cone-shaped light beam shining on the wooden floor.

  The second officer who was guarding the door of the storage room turned around and looked inside twice. He saw a beam of light emitting divine aura, but he did not see the ghost covered by the beam.

  At this time, Jasper one-knee knees was on the ground, pressing one hand on the floor, and asked Roy:

  "Why did it get down there?"

  Roy also took back the glimmer of light, walked to Jasper's side, and asked casually: "What should we do?"

  "Follow me, are there stairs here?" Jasper asked decisively.

  The second mate's burly body almost blocked the door of the storage room. He bent down and poked his bald head in...

  "What trouble are you in?"

  Jasper pointed to the beam of light that had not completely dissipated and said to the second officer:

  "We just saw a wraith, but it has already developed spiritual wisdom. When it saw us, it ran away quickly and escaped below the deck..."

  The second mate glanced at the two men suspiciously before saying:

  "Come with me!"

  He opened the door to the storage room and stood in the narrow corridor.

  The crew member who was following the second officer stood in front of the two men, sandwiching them again...

  Roy guessed that he didn't want to beat the vegetables in the storage room to pieces during the fight, so he agreed to Jasper's proposal and agreed that the two of them would chase the wraith down there.

  …

  Just when the entire group passed by the kitchen, the head chef, who was directing his men to work in the kitchen, ran out, blocked the corridor, and asked the second officer unceremoniously.

  Roy couldn't understand what they were saying, but he felt that the second mate was so tall and strong, and he was very polite in front of the chef.

  Probably the head chef was in a good mood when he heard that the wraith had escaped, and he praised the second mate very much...

  The stairs leading below deck are located in the center of the first floor of the ship.

  It extends diagonally from here and does not take up much space in the kitchen.

  The stairs here are relatively worn. In addition to some scratches, there are traces of corrosion on the walls, the paint is also tattered, and there is even some mold.

  The walls on both sides were also mottled, and it was hard to see what kind of paint they were painted on. They were just pitch black, and there was even a layer of black mud stains where they were often touched.

  Walking down the stairs, here are the crew cabins, one next to another, very dense.

  The lighting in this corridor is a little dark, and there are no lights on the walls.

  Roy walked in holding a small light, and saw that in addition to some chores, there were also several smelly shoes lying in the corridor, which was almost impossible to stay in.

  The second officer turned a blind eye and stepped on the debris, walking along the corridor for a section of the road, when a corner appeared in front of him.

  Push this door open and you will reach the oar room on the left side of the crew quarters.

  The oar room on the right is opposite the crew cabin, which is close to the pier. If he can go to that room, Roy plans to jump directly from the window to the pier. Anyway, the height of more than four meters is not too high, and the maximum jump is That means breaking your leg.

  But the two men were led by the second mate into the oar room on the left side, which side of the ship faces the sea...

  If you jump off the ship, you have to jump into the sea. Although it is safer, you need to swim back to the port. If you are caught by them during this period...

  Roy was a little afraid to think about it.

  The room is long and narrow, like a big shop. The wooden paddles, which are more than ten meters long, are hung on the side of the roof with paddling positions. Each paddle has about eight seats. It looks like eight. The crew member has an oar, and there are actually some luggage placed here. It seems that there are crew members living here as well.

  But now the room is empty...

  Under the shimmering sacred light in Roy's hand, there were actually more than a dozen wraith floating in the room.

  The wraith here are almost completely lost, just floating motionless in the room.

  The Soul Fire on them may be strong or weak. When Roy passed by these wraiths, just a shimmering Holy Light Power completely extinguished the Soul Fire on a lost undead.

  Then it disappeared into the air without a struggle like a wisp of smoke, and dim-blue's soul was freed from the bonds of resentment and took form in the divine gleam.

  This soul that had lost all memory moved towards the sky without any nostalgia, and disappeared on the ceiling of the cabin in the blink of an eye.

  There were many dead souls wandering in the room. Roy and Jasper carefully distinguished them. Some were dead crew members, as well as Janna, Sea Clan and elf...

  Jasper's face turned a little pale when he saw so many wraiths.

  With his Holy Light Power, there is no way he can purify so many dead souls.

  His panicked look wasn't entirely because he was frightened by these ghosts.

  Seeing that this ship looked like a cemetery, this was what frightened him so much.

  Roy's biggest worry is that the ship has been in port for three or four days. Obviously, they will never stay in Castletown Port for too long.

  The high tide tonight is around three o'clock in the morning. This ship can leave the port just in time for the fishing boats to enter the port.

  All the oars in the oar room are ready, and the storage room is filled with food. It is obvious that all preparations have been made before the trip...

  They asked Jasper to come tonight, probably because they wanted him to purify some of the dead souls on the ship, and then... they never thought of letting him go.

  Roy's arrival was a buy-one-get-one-free deal, and the two exchanged glances again, both seeing fear in each other's eyes.

  The two started running almost at the same time. They were less than three meters away from the oar window.

  Before the second mate and the seaman could react at all, they rushed out without looking back. They were so thin that they could just slide out through the window of the oar.

  The next second after Roy slid out of the window, his mood completely hit rock bottom.

  A huge trawl net lay in front of the two of them, and Jasper and Roy fell into the net one after another.
