Just like the soldiers on the ghost ship who appeared out of nowhere, their enemies rushed out of the rolling waves, were scattered by the black cannonballs, and turned into a puddle of water before returning to the embrace of the sea.
"Lin Qing said we failed." Su Yinchen said angrily on the other side of the communication paper crane, "I don't think we failed."
"This war came suddenly and went away even more suddenly." Su Yunle frowned, "I have never seen such a confusing plot line. And when those phantoms came, all I could think about was the war. .”
"Sharks can cause hallucinations." A pale and handsome face flashed in Mu Chen's mind. After experiencing the severe pain in his heart, the veil covering his mind seemed to have been suddenly torn off. Memories that had been intentionally blurred gradually became clearer.
"How to say it?"
"I got a notebook." Mu Chen took out a notebook from his arms, "While you were dealing with the enemy, I touched the captain's cabin. Fortunately, I wasn't caught."
"So this is surrender? Fortunately, I can still come back alive after deviating from the plot." Su Yinchen joked, "It seems that you have figured it out?"
It doesn't sound like she's bothered by him sneaking away during the fight.
"Give way." A familiar female voice sounded from the communication paper crane and the wall at the same time. There seemed to be a hole in the rusty wall, and Su Yinchen actually walked out of the wall.
"You..." Ning Yu shrank back subconsciously.
"Don't be nervous, it's just some props." Su Yinchen sat down next to Su Yunle. "It's more convenient to communicate face to face like this. No, let me take a look." She reached out and took the note.

June 1, 19x9, sunny northeast wind with small waves of level 4
It was a nice day today, but something strange happened. A young comrade found multiple scratches on the stern of our ship thirty centimeters above the water. They did not look like those left by any kind of marine life, but more like bear scratches. The first mate told me that he had a very restless sleep last night. He dreamed of a huge fish being brutally killed, which was not a good sign.
June 2, 19x9, sunny with northeasterly wind and small waves of level 3
There are actually sharks in this world, I really can't believe my eyes. During today's routine exercise, there was a harsh and abnormal sound on the right side of our ship. At first, we thought it was scratching on the rocks, but unexpectedly, a young lady was rescued. This is not accurate, because the lower body of that lady was a fish tail. She had many wounds on her body and her belly was huge. I had no time to think about it, so I arranged for a military doctor to operate on her.
On June 3, 19x9, it was cloudy with northeasterly wind and light waves of level 7
Unfortunately, the shark lady was seriously injured. Military doctors were unable to save her life. Anesthesia and drugs did not work on her. Fortunately, the child in her belly was fine, but how should a shark baby be raised? I don’t know if the little sharks eat fish meat.
……
July 11, 19x9, sunny south wind with level 2 light waves
The little shark is one month old and can already eat whole small fish. The good news is that he is very healthy, the bad news is that he is very dependent on me and will cry non-stop when I leave him. When it cries, we all have different auditory hallucinations and hallucinations. It turns out that the story is actually true. The shark's voice can induce hallucinations, but it's a pity that its tears cannot turn into pearls. I didn’t expect that I also have children.
By the way, I decided to name it Lan Ming, but the first mate said I was too good at it, but I understand what it means.
……
Heavy rain and southeasterly winds with level 11 huge waves on November 1, 19x2
Lan Ming is very healthy, but he is too lively. The weather is very bad today, so the little comrades have suspended training. Lan Ming sneaked out and was probably being chased by Lightning now. When it comes back, I'm going to give it a thumbs up.
Am I wrong? There seemed to be a figure passing by on the deck just now.
November 4, 19x2, sunny southeast wind with level 3 small waves
There were about four or five of Lan Ming's kindred spirits outside. They were a little wary of us, but very friendly to Lan Ming.
I hope this isn't a bad thing, but I feel a little sour in my heart.
The neighboring countries have not been very honest recently, always sending people to wander around the boundaries, so Lan Mingshao has to be allowed to go out and wander around.
……
The following diary began to become incomplete and a large number of pages were missing. Su Yinchen frowned and read it carefully before he could barely deduce a development line.
"After Lan Ming met his kind, the sharks gradually relaxed their vigilance towards humans. Then... well, the war started. The battle situation seemed to be unfavorable. The warships were retreating steadily, but the reinforcements were delayed." Su Yinchen caressed her. He murmured in vague handwriting, "Lan Ming was taken away by the same kind of people..."
July 12, 19x7, sunny southeast wind with level 5 moderate waves
We failed... There was a traitor in the warship, and we had no face to face the motherland. ...I don’t know how my child is doing now...I am Lan Chengchuan, the captain of Nan No. 1. My vision has been blurred and I may die at any time, but...I seem to have seen Lan Ming...It’s me. An illusion...
The diary stopped abruptly, and the crooked handwriting almost covered the entire page.
"Lan Ming must have done something, huh? What is this?" Su Yinchen shook the note, and a delicate card fell from the hard shell of the notebook.
"This is..." Mu Chen picked up the card. He was sure that when he got the note, there was absolutely no such card.
This is a card with gilding patterns. It looks very new. There is a line of words written in cursive script on it: When the storm comes, the priest will break free from the ice coffin, hold the crown, and crown the king. The age of God will eventually come.
"Sacrifice, ice coffin..." Su Yunle came over and smacked his lips, "Is this sacrifice trapped in the coffin? Isn't this a serious branch plot?"
"Creak..."
Suddenly there was a small sound outside the door.
"What's the sound?" Su Yunle raised his head keenly.
"Creak, creak, creak..."
"This...this sound" Ning Yu shuddered subconsciously. The faint sound outside the door reminded him of the sound of bones scratching the wall in the crystal factory. "Looks like tonight is not Christmas Eve~" Su Yinchen stood up, flipped her hands gracefully, and a long whip appeared out of thin air in her palm.
Mu Chen carefully put away his notes and stood in front of Ning Yu.
Several players stared at the rusty door frame, and the room was so silent that only a few rapid breathing could be heard.
"Well." An Xu's forehead was dripping with cold sweat. He could clearly feel his extreme fear, but that fear was mixed with some emotions that were not his. 'Excitement...' He pressed his chest, heart Beating violently, no one noticed that black silk threads slowly flowed down the pockmarked young man's trouser legs and into the floor.
The strange noise outside the door was getting closer and closer, as if surrounding everyone's ears.
Just when the player thought the monster was about to break through the door, the scratching sound suddenly stopped.
"Kunkou" There were several knocks on the door.
"Are you asleep?" Lin Qing's clear voice came from behind the door. "I just heard a sound outside the door. Did you hear it?"
No one in the room made a sound, and everyone knew that it was not necessarily Lin Qing who was outside the door at this time.
"Forget it, maybe I heard it wrong." Lin Qing's voice outside the door muttered and gradually faded away.
‘According to past routines, that thing should still be guarding behind the door. ’ Su Yinchen made a sign language to her brother stubbornly.
‘Something’s wrong. ’ Mu Chen felt something strange in his heart for no reason, and his keen sixth sense told him that something seemed to be watching them.
Tick
A drop of water fell on his cheek.
There was no need for any thought, his body had already reacted automatically. Mu Chen pushed Ning Yu away with his left hand and picked up a low stool in the dormitory with his right hand.
Touch
A sharp bone spur carried green liquid and penetrated deeply into the stool.
The sharp tip of the bone spur exuded a sinister aura, hovering just a punch away from the tip of Mu Chen's nose.
Look up
A mermaid skeleton made of bones was clinging to the small ceiling of the dormitory. Its huge body almost filled the roof, so that its skull turned back weirdly, and a strange light flashed in the black eye sockets. light.
Tick-tick transparent liquid flowed out of its mouth and fell to the ground along its sharp protruding teeth.
This was far scarier than the half-rotten skeleton of the shark he saw in the sea before.
Ignoring its human-like upper body skeleton, under this skeletal mermaid's pelvic bone is a nearly two-meter-long tailbone, with countless ferocious bone spurs springing out from that thick and long bone.
It lay quietly on the ceiling, its dark eye sockets staring at the players, like a dark gecko, and it stayed there for an unknown length of time.
……
Gecko shit
The skeleton mermaid suddenly rose up, swinging its huge tailbone, and countless sharp bone spurs pierced everyone.
"Holy shit, when did it come in!" Su Yinchen cursed. She swung the whip to swipe away an incoming bone spur, but the whip was too thin and could not resist the bone spurs.
"Sister, be careful." Su Yunle held up the energy shield and barely resisted part of the attack, but after only holding on for a short while, fine lines began to crack on the surface of the energy shield.
The Su siblings could barely resist due to their strength, but Mu Chen and Ning Yu, who had only played two dungeons and had just left the ranks of novice players, found it much more difficult.
Mu Chen was waving a low stool that was tied into a hedgehog while protecting the novice Ning Yu. After a while, blood marks appeared on his body.
But he soon realized something was wrong. Although the bone spurs came with a fierce force, they didn't seem to be aimed at his appearance.
Instead, it’s more like...
Mu Chen adjusted his angle for a moment.
Sure enough, each of those bone spurs were pointing at Ning Yu's facade.
Take a gamble
Mu Chen took advantage of the wave of bone spurs to kick Ning Yu under the bed.
Swish brush
Dozens of sharp bone spurs chased Ning Yu, leaving a row of vertical spikes on the ground.
The skeleton mermaid did not attack him.
What's going on? Mu Chen's brain is working rapidly. Apart from an extra notebook, he only has...
Mu Chen reached into his clothes, crossed the rough notebook with his palm and grasped a ball of warm plastic.
That was his secret "breakfast."
