Chapter 221 Survivors
His eyes quickly glanced around the cabin corridor.
There was actually light in the sunken ship. Looking up, the top of the cabin was covered with glowing seaweed, and the green fluorescence illuminated the empty cabin.
There was no one in the corridor, and all the deep divers on the entire ship seemed to have gone out to fight. The cabin was silent, but such a quiet environment made Lin Qi feel uneasy.
I can't take care of my nervousness anymore, I must find the target as soon as possible.
Lin Qi’s brain was spinning rapidly.
From the dying resonance of the silenced Mark, it can be seen that the Deep Diver was preparing to leave Rhine after Princess Chloe handed the gem to the Deep Diver, which means that this Deep Diver tribe is very likely to come here for this purpose. Yes, other actions are just following the trend.
If this guess is true, then there is a high probability that such an important thing will be personally controlled by the tribal leader. As a tribal leader, it should be normal to choose the most comfortable room in the sunken ship to live in.
So...the captain's cabin?
As soon as his heart moved, his body started to move. Lin Qi turned around and ran towards the captain's cabin.
When he visited the ship of the Church of the Night and the cargo ship of the Federation of Commerce, Lynch had a general understanding of the structure of ships of this era, so he found the thick captain's cabin door without much effort.
There were large areas of dried blood outside the gate, as well as signs of being forcibly broken open. It seemed that there had been a fierce struggle when the ship sank. However, the good thing was that the damaged gate could not be locked. Lynch leaned sideways against it. Next to the door, he took a few deep breaths to calm down, and then lightly pressed his pistol. The heavy wooden door creaked and slowly opened a crack.
A strong fishy smell hit my face. This was the typical smell of deep divers, and it became so strong in a closed environment.
There must be people living in this cabin.
Ding.
Lynch flicked out a penny coin and made a crashing sound when it hit the floor. At the same time, he held his breath and listened. There was still silence in the cabin, only the sound of coins rolling on the ground.
Hiding his figure, Lynch silently rolled forward and slipped in through the crack in the door. While rolling, he looked around to confirm that there was no one in the captain's cabin.
Safety.
But shocking.
There were patches of dried mucus all over the ground, exuding a fishy smell. They should be bodily fluids dripping from the residents.
Things in the room were turned over in a mess, torn and torn uniforms and navigation equipment were piled in the corner of the room, the glass cabinet door against the wall was smashed, and all the wine bottles and collections inside were swept away. Only a bit of wreckage remains.
In the middle of the room, there were several daggers inserted into the long table covered with a huge chart. The chart was also in tatters. There were several pale skulls scattered on the table, each with their mouths wide open and their dark eyes staring straight into the sky. He stared at the intruding Lin Qi.
What kind of hobby is this? Put this thing on the table.
But in fact, skulls are not the only weird things. There are many weird things in the room, such as shriveled dead fish, huge scales, dried aquatic plants, sharp fish bones, and many unknown things. Bits and pieces of items were scattered left and right in the captain's cabin.
In the middle of the table is a large copper basin. The basin is filled with a strange green liquid. There is no flame underneath, but the liquid is bubbling and bubbling. From time to time, a few small fish bones turn up inside, exuding a strange smell. breath.
Lynch felt as if he had entered a medieval wizard's room. He felt that everything was so strange. But what was even more strange was that he even found a blond and blue-eyed doll beside the bed. The doll was very delicate. But as soon as he saw it, he immediately thought of the scene of a strong fish-headed man holding a doll.
It was so eye-catching that Lynch quickly shook his head to control his imagination.
No, no, still no.
Lynch quickly searched the entire room but found nothing.
Such a strange room should be the residence of tribal religious people. Lynch immediately thought of the white-haired old deep diver who just took the lead in rushing out, or the enemy who took the lead in reciting the declaration. This room must be It's occupied by them.
In other words, there may be other tribal leaders or commanders who let wizards or priests occupy the best environment just out of respect?
Then go and see the first mate's room, which is also a room in good condition on the ship.
Boom.
The entire sunken ship shook again, causing Lynch to shake for a while, but he barely managed to stand still. It seemed that the battle outside was getting more intense. I don’t know how long the apostles in yellow can last, but they must be prepared for the worst.
Lin Qi did not dare to delay, and finally checked the captain's room again, and immediately left the captain's room decisively.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to pick up his one penny coin.
I am avoiding leaving traces, but I am not reluctant to leave.
There was still no sound in the corridor, which made Lynch feel relieved. It seemed that the deep divers were really out in force, and one would not suddenly pop up and attack him.
Maintaining his lurking state and running at full speed in the corridor, Lynch changed his approach this time and relied directly on the silencer, kicked open the door to the first officer's room, and rolled in.
There is no sound as a warning, and even enemies inside will be caught off guard.
However, the situation inside made Lynch know what it meant to be caught off guard.
Because the first mate's cabin had been completely emptied, a large hole was dug in the middle of the cabin, and Lynch almost fell straight into it.
Reluctantly standing firm by the hole, he broke into a cold sweat. This place was weirder than the captain's room.
A glowing green five-pointed star is drawn around the large hole with green liquid. The liquid flows along a fixed trajectory on the flat ground, and strange bubbles are constantly appearing on the surface, which made Lynch first Time reminds me of the cauldron in the captain's cabin.
There is a human head placed on each of the five corners of the five-pointed star. There is a cluster of green flames burning on the top of the head. The flames twist and jump from time to time, emitting a strange shimmer.
The human heads have begun to rot, but it can still be seen that a round hole has been opened at the back of each head, and the brain tissue and flesh and blood inside have disappeared, as if they have been sucked away. , leaving only an empty skull.
However, even after Lin Qi rushed in, these people's heads were still moving with their eyes and eyebrows moving, looking like they were wailing in despair. Lin Qi's ears even faintly heard painful moans and low moans. It hit his soul directly, causing a cold despair to rise in his heart for no reason.
However, this was just the beginning. Standing at the entrance of the cave, Lin Qi saw the scene inside the cave for the first time.
The lower decks were dug through and opened all the way through the bottom of the ship. Seawater filled the bottom cabin, and inside were floating the bodies of more than twenty sailors with their heads punctured. A large mass of gray gel-like substance was wrapping these corpses. The corpses had been severely decomposed, and some even had only white bones left.
It was like opening the door to kill. The scene of eating like this made Lynch almost vomit on the spot. He covered his mouth and stumbled back a few steps before barely restraining the feeling of vomiting.
Heck, this is probably where the deep divers fed the big monster just now, so hurry up, hurry up, otherwise... huh?
Dang-dang-dang...
In the silent corridor behind him, there was a sudden sound of slight footsteps, which was unusually obvious in the silent environment.
Damn it.
Lin Qi, who was used to watching horror movies, felt like his hair was about to explode. He turned invisible and rolled out of the cabin with his gun raised. The corridor was still as dark as before, but around the corner at the end, a figure disappeared in a flash.
Looking at the body shape and features, it’s not a deep diver, it’s definitely a human being, and it doesn’t smell fishy, so it shouldn’t be wrong.
More importantly, this figure is obviously a child of about ten years old, and a little girl.
Thinking of the doll in the captain's cabin, Lynch suddenly realized that she was a passenger on the cargo ship, so her toys were in the captain's cabin. After the shipwreck, she hid because of her small size, and now she came out while the Deep Diver went out to meet the enemy?
No, catch up and have a look. If this is true, she might know the position of the leader of these deep divers.
Gritting his teeth, Lynch held up his cane and raised his gun, and chased down the corridor. At the end of the corridor was the sailor's entertainment room, and the ajar door was still shaking slightly.
There was no glowing algae inside, and it was pitch black. Lynch pondered for a moment, and then pushed the door open with his cane.
The fishy smell inside is very light. It seems that no deep divers occupy this room. Has the child been hiding here for the past few days?
After hesitating for a while, Lynch took off his top hat, hung it on his cane, and handed it in through the crack of the door. The next moment, a sound of wind fell from the sky, a clay pot hit the hat, and at the same time, there was a childish cry of a girl.
Lin Qi pushed open the door, pinched the other person's arm, pushed the other person to the ground, and then let out a long breath.
It’s really a human being, a little girl who looks about twelve or thirteen years old, with fair skin and looks incredibly beautiful.
