Chapter 47 Water Ghost

"Selastin Leo." In the eyes of the alchemist, the other party doesn't seem to have much joy. I didn't expect to meet you here. I almost doubt whether we have returned to Ainblo.

The narrow cabin is stacked with barrels and boxes, and broken debris is piled up in the corner. An oil lamp hung on the board above the boat, emitting a dim light. In the low room, everyone was crowded together. They were soaked with sea or stuffy sweat, their clothes were wet on their bodies, and their faces were pale and looked like dead ashes. They were exhausted, and most of them lay on the ground as if they had completely slept to death, making a uncomfortable moan or two from time to time, unconsciously twitching.

The alchemist withdrew his gaze, "I didn't expect it to be someone else." He took a few steps closer to the other party, "But I didn't expect that I would not only meet you, but also you."

"The world is so small. You are also haunted."

The alchemist frowned. He didn't understand where the other party's malice against him came from, and always said bad words to each other. The hostility on Brand's face was obvious, with disgust and countless ridicule, sentence after sentence.

Even the captain beside him couldn't help asking, "Is he your enemy, White Devil?" The captain sneered and said, "If so, you should leave and leave him to us. Don't let your kindness overflow and cause us trouble."

"He doesn't speak well." The alchemist said.

"I can't see it." Mr. Captain reminded him, "Don't forget the agreement between us. Don't use your jingling words to discuss how to escape. I will keep an eye on you, White Devil.

"If I do this, you can come to the castle to find me, sir."

The captain snorted in shame and did not answer.

"Ha, what did you say, Celstin Leo?" Brand looked at him sideways, with bloodshot eyes, with jokes and sarcasm, "What are you going to do with us? Thrown into the dungeon, executed on the spot, or put down the stake? I really can't see that you can be a guest anywhere.

Is he mocking or jealous? Maybe there are both, Li Ou thought. You should be more friendly. Less murderous delusions. The alchemist told him.

"But other than that, what are you here for?" Brandra pulled the robe under her, her back close to the bulkhead, and rubbed hard to make herself sit more comfortable. Is it to laugh at us, or to show and show your highness? I really can't think of anything else."

Is my brain sick? Or do you come here to listen to his cynicism when you are full and have nothing to do? Put away your hostility, Brand!" The alchemist roared angrily, "I should fucking let them tie you up and stuff a pair of stinky socks in your mouth. I don't think there is a shortage of anything here."

"Then come on, get out of here when you're done." Brand snorted coldly.

Liou can no longer control his anger. He took a step forward, grabbed his collar, and shouted at him face to face, "Don't be self-righteous. Do you really think everyone is trying to kill you? If I want to hurt you, I won't talk nonsense with you at all." He threw Brand on the ground. "Listen, I'm fucking affectionate to save you."

Brand fell to the ground, and the pain prompted him to grit his teeth but resist without saying a word. He stubbornly raised his head and stared at Leo and said with a sneer, "Really? I won't be grateful to you either."

"I didn't expect it--"

"Brand..." Next to the black-haired alchemist, his companion groaned and said weakly, "Where are you?"

"I'm right here. I'm right here." Brand moved to the wall in pain and picked up his companion. "You finally woke up. Do you feel better?"

Li Ou suddenly felt as if he had become a villain, the villain in the novel. Only then did he notice that the guy who buried his head in the shadow and could hardly see his face seemed to be called Dikka - if I remember correctly, he should be the name. From the beginning, he followed Brand's side, the slightly fattened alchemy apprentice. But now, Leo can't see what he looked like before. He is thin, his eyes are deep, and there are only skin and bones left all over his body, looking like a skeleton.

"I'm cold." He said.

"I'm here." Brand held Decca and suddenly choked. Hold on, hold on a little longer, and I will find a doctor."

Li Ou glanced at the captain next to him, thinking that no one would cure us white devils. Take them out." The alchemist said to the captain, "They can't stay here anymore."

"You mean--" The captain suddenly panicked.

The light was so dim that Li Ou noticed that there were shallow puzzles in the shadow of the cabin, and the tentacles of the water plants were stretching and stretching, everything was exactly the same as what he had experienced. Those people seemed to be dead, leaving only a weak breath to survive. Their faces were pale and swollen, as if they had met a drowned water ghost in the Qianhu city-state. The narrow room was filled with the fishy smell of the ocean.

"Maybe I'm worried too much," the alchemist was not 100% sure, "but be prepared."

The captain swallowed his saliva, and he trembled and grabbed the hilt of the sword and shouted "Guardian". However, this caused a misunderstanding, and Brand immediately became alert, as if Leo would kill him the next second. The rest of the conscious people also struggled to sit up. They have all been eaten by monsters. Don't you even understand that he is trying to save them?

"Serastin Leo, are you going to kill us?" Brand leaned against the bulkhead and stared at him angrily. His weapons had been taken away by the soldiers. At this time, he was unarmed, thirsty, weak and powerless to resist. Is this the help you said?

Li Ou didn't get angry. Why can't this guy even distinguish between good and bad? Is it that his brain was burned by the sun at sea, or was he betrayed so much that he refused even the simplest trust? Damn, I won't hurt you." He roared at him angrily, "Brand, follow us out of this damn cabin. You should go and bask in the sun."

"Bask in the sun?" Brand erected his hair like an angry cat. Do you think we are salted fish in the cabin, or dragged out and executed in public?

"Don't talk nonsense with them." The captain urged, and he shouted for reinforcements from his men. The sound of boots stepping on the boat board echoed in my ears, and a group of soldiers poured into the cabin and filled the aisle. However, Leo stopped him.

"Let them out, do you want to trap yourself in it?"

"But--"

"Look, the knife flashes and his face is ferocious. I can't wait to kill me with a knife." Brand stared at the soldier standing at the door and sneered, "Do you dare to say it's to help us? Do you want to help us see death?"

This idiot! The alchemist really wants him to meet the damn gods now!" Shut your mouth and think about it with your dog's brain!" Li Ou shouted angrily, and he almost couldn't resist the impulse to draw his sword. You are also an alchemist. Feel the surroundings. Is your head full of seaweed? You didn't find out..."

"What...what..." Before he finished his words, his face suddenly changed. I, I..."

"Let's go." The alchemist's sarcery expression was rare. He motioned to the captain, "Drag them out. Don't touch him for the time being."

The soldiers came in hesitantly under the order of the captain. They hesitated for a moment, and finally held their weapons in one hand and set up the paralyzed crew in the other, dragging them out of the cabin. Several guys tried to struggle, but the soldiers did not know how to control their emotions. They kicked and threatened with blades, as if the crew were prisoners about to set foot on the execution ground.

One crew after another was dragged out of the cabin, and the soldiers' resistant curses came through the bulkhead. The two soldiers stepped forward and tried to pull Decca, who kept talking, from Brand's arms. Don't let you touch him. I'll do it myself." He struggled to stand up and staggered out. He suddenly stopped, "What about them?" He looked at the soldiers deliberately avoiding, unconscious, as if they were dead crew members, "Where are they!"

"Let's go out first," Leo said, "then it's their turn."

"You can't lie to me!" Brand stared at Leo angrily and shouted at him with all his strength, "I won't leave anyone behind!" Never!"

Li Ou frowned. Hasn't this guy realized the danger? Get out first!" He ordered. The water vapor in the cabin is heavier, and the fishy smell of the sea is like a rotten salted fish, which makes people sick. Take him out!"

Brand tried to struggle, but Mr. Captain had had enough. I don't want to stay here anymore." He roared loudly, "Soldiers, drag them out, damn it! We have to get out, right now! I'm going crazy!"

As a result, the soldiers were even more ruthless. One of them went to capture Dikka and the other used a halberd to oppress Brand. But a soldier next to him suddenly fell to the ground, causing a violent noise. The barrels and boxes beside him all fell to the ground and hit the soldier, almost drowning him. Fortunately, he looks fine.

However, for a short moment, the soldier screamed in horror. His voice is far sharper than the woman's cry. Who is it? Who is it? He shouted, "Help, captain, help!" He couldn't help kicking his legs and clasping the boat board tightly, but he couldn't stop sliding back. His nails made clear marks on the floor, and blood remained on them. Help!" He screamed.

The captain was almost stunned. He simply forgot to give orders.

Leo was the first to rush up. He grabbed the soldier's hand and pulled him out. Behind the tall stacked wooden boxes, there seemed to be something dragging in the darkness that blocked the light. He found it almost difficult to resist the strange force, and the vague and twisted figure hidden in the darkness seemed to be a monster.

"What are you looking at? Come and help!" He shouted at the soldiers who stayed at the door.

A soldier ran over, grabbed his companion's other hand, and struggled to drag him out with the alchemist. They pulled it, and Li Ou found that the strength of the other twisted shadow was beyond imagination.

"Damn it! Don't be stupid!" Another soldier took the position of alchemist. Remove all these things."

No one listened to his orders. The soldier's frightened shout seemed to be a spell of immobilization, which made most guys dare not move at all. Damn it!" He cursed and had to move the empty boxes in person, and the wound on his left hand was faintly painful. Finally, a soldier ran over, but in a blink of an eye, the soldier buried under the wooden box made a sad cry. His eyes widened, his eyes turned white, and his sweat suddenly crawled all over his body, as if he had suffered great pain.

The soldier was stunned. Leo pushed him away and said, "Get out of here! Don't get in the way!"

The wooden box fell to the side like a landslide, and then Li Ou saw what was hidden behind it. In the shadow are several pale faces, round faces that have become swollen after being soaked in water, with a fishy smell all over their bodies, and their eyes are shining in the dark, showing hatred for the living and bloodthirsty thirst.

"He, they--" Brand's face was mixed with incredible and panicked fear.

"Damn it, that's what you said not to give up anyone." Li Ou replied quickly. He kicked the dull soldiers, "pull him out and get out," he finally saw that the soldiers had no will to fight, and they were looking for their own death to stay here. The guy who was unconscious because of the pain was pulled out. His legs are gone, and the broken bones seem to have been bitten off by his teeth.

"Get out! Get all out!" The alchemist shouted to the soldiers, "Fuck, can't you even escape?"

Those drowning ghosts no longer hide. They pushed open the wooden boxes in the way and approached them. The captain held the sword and stood beside Li Ou. White devil, this is... this is... Are you sure we can kill them?

"Cut off their heads." Li Ou said, "It's quite simple, isn't it?"

One, two, three... five in total. Less than the alchemist expected. A short-haired ghost rushed up first, and Leo didn't have time to choose his opponent. He stepped forward and cut it with his sword. The rune sword scratched the sleeves, skin and bones, but somehow the sound was very wrong. The breath around him was strange and cold, which almost choked him. He saw the broken arm on the ground, and his black fingers were squirming under the light.

Another water ghost raised his pale round face, and Li Ou did not hesitate to raise his sword and cut it. The sword split his nose in half and cut a deep visible bone through his cheek, just under the eyes like a burning red fire. Brand should recognize this face. He shouted out a man's name and staggered back.

The alchemist felt that something was ripped his ankle. Looking down, he saw his dark fingers tightly clamping his calf, and the broken arm was climbing up his thigh while tearing wool and muscles. Leo felt a violent nausea. He quickly pried open the finger on his foot with the tip of his sword and threw it away. The broken arm squirmed on the ground, and his fingers kept opening and opening and opening.

Other drowning ghosts staggered towards him. Although the guy with a broken arm lost a hand, he didn't shed a drop of blood and seemed to be unconscious. Leo raised the long sword to his chest and quickly read the three-syllable spell. The long sword immediately shone, like the bright moonlight at night, surpassing the dim oil lamp, making the drowning ghosts even more horrible.

The captain hesitated, but the water ghost found him. He had to fight in horror. But he still remembers Leo's advice. He dodged the water ghost's claws, and the sword front fell deeply into the water ghost's soft and fat neck as if it were full of fat.

The body of a crew member rushed over and knocked the captain to the ground. He fell into a pile of wooden boxes and his weapon came out.

"Get up," Li Ou shouted at him, "Get out!" However, the captain struggled a few times and failed to get up. At this time, a brave soldier did not retreat and rushed into the cabin. Take him out!" Before he could recognize who the other party was, he shouted.

The space in the cabin is small, and the alchemist has to stand and retreat alone in front of the four dead bodies. He cut through the belly of a water ghost with one sword, and his dark intestines sprinkled on the ground with blood and seawater, but the other party was still alive. He retreated to the door, intending to trap them in the cabin. However, his back hit a guy who was in the way.

Brand's bastard hasn't left yet. Damn, why are you standing here!" He attacked and cursed at the same time.

"I don't need you to save me." Brand held a halberd left by the soldier in his hand and stabbed forward softly, but with little effect. The sharp sharp blade couldn't pierce the smooth skin at all.

Li Ou cut off the arm of another body with a sword and kicked the broken hand that crawled towards him far away. Who knew that he was almost stabbed by the halberd. He shouted angrily, "Damn, get out of the way. Do you want to kill me? Get out with Dika first!"

"Don't fucking be self-righteous!" Brand repeated stubbornly, "I don't need you to save me!"

Damn, he is more annoying than Lu Yuewu. You will fucking kill us." Li Ou outlined the French seal, shook the two water ghosts that rushed at him, and fell into the corner of the cabin, splashing large pieces of wood chips. He took a step forward, pierced the throat of the body that lost its arm with a sword, and kicked the other party away. Run!"

However, Brand remained motionless. The alchemist turned his head and found that Brand was turning his back to him. Following his sight, Leo saw that Dika's face was abnormally blue and purple, and his mouth spit out crab-like foam. His eyes opened dullly, and the muscles on his face were entangled, as if they were suffering great pain.

"Dika--" Brand trembled all over and was almost speechless.

"Don't look at him," Li Ou said sadly, holding his arm, "Let's go."

Brand shook off his arm, "No! I won't leave him!" He actually walked towards the other party.

Li Ou tried his best to drag him back. "Open your eyes and have a good look. He has become the same thing as those guys!" He is dead!"

"He was fine before--"

"He's dying before!" Leo shouted angrily, but Brand seemed to have taken root and couldn't hold it. Are you going to stay here and die? He is dead, he is dead! Damn it, come with me!"

Brand was motionless, and Dika had already got up, opened his mouth, and walked towards them with saliva. His eyes were greedy and hatred, and he couldn't wait to swallow them. A low roar also occurred in the cabin behind them.

"Blessings, let's not go."
