Chapter 325 Death Sentence and Hell's Curse
Onboard the Siren.
There were flames everywhere, black smoke filled the air, as if it was about to sink, and despair filled the ship.
Sarah and Raven, Miss Fortune, braved the danger and crossed the thick black fog, preparing to head to the stern rudder.
Along the way, they saw severely damaged ship sides and cabins, as well as traces of fallen shells from the Terror.
On the deck and ground, disemboweled corpses of companions could be seen everywhere.
Each corpse seemed to silently accuse the cruelty of this battle, and it also made Sarah and Raven feel heartbroken.
Looking at the once familiar partners, now turned into cold corpses, Sarah’s face showed a trace of sadness.
If they die in the black mist, their souls will become undead ghosts, trapped inside forever and unable to leave.
Sarah suddenly regretted her decision. The horror of Soul Eating Night was completely beyond her imagination.
But she understands that in the current dangerous situation, she must remain calm and vigilant.
She can't just give up, she must find a way out for these living companions.
Poof!
The sharp sword cut through the fog, and Sarah killed the fear knight in front of her with a cold expression.
Her target is very clear, those fear knights who have just been resurrected after experiencing [Cannon Curtain].
The gorgeous long sword in his hand turned into deadly cold light, harvesting the lives of the Dread Knights and reducing the pressure on the crew as much as possible.
Leaven followed closely behind, piercing the green heads of those ghost horses with the sharp sword in his hand, strangling them into a ball of black mist.
With the combined efforts of the two, they finally reached the stern of the ship safely.
As soon as they entered the stern helm of the ship, they saw Feder leading the remaining crew members in a fierce fight with a Dread Knight.
The surging black mist blessed the Dread Knight, and every attack turned into a real sound of metal clashing.
The surroundings were still surrounded by the ghosts of former companions, wrapped in the biting cold wind.
These ghosts were pale, with green flames in their eyes. They surrounded the Fedel people and made terrifying whistling sounds, intending to take away their souls.
Bang!
【Kill two birds with one stone】!
Sarah, Miss Fortune, saw Federer and others in danger and immediately raised her pistol.
She calmly aimed at the Dread Knight who was charging through the black mist, and a blazing light bloomed at the muzzle.
The specially made silver bullet hit the Dread Knight's head, shattering the swaying will-o'-the-wisp inside.
At the same time, the silver bullet seemed to have special power and did not stop after hitting the first target.
Instead, he continued to jump forward and penetrated a ghost with a shocked expression.
The ghost suddenly let out a shrill scream as the silver bullet penetrated it, turning into a black mist and dispersing in the air.
Whether it was the Siren's cannonballs or Sarah's own bullets, she was preparing for the Soul-eating Night according to the skills her mother had taught her.
Immediately afterwards, Sarah and Raven rushed over and began to strangle the nearby ghosts until all threats were cleared.
"Captain!"
Feder walked over with a pale expression, followed by Sock and the crew.
Having just recovered, he had to endure such a brutal battle.
"Everyone follow me and prepare to leave the Siren."
Sarah's eyes fell on Feder and Thok behind him.
Recognizing Thok's identity, he was Feder's son.
When Fedel returned, he joined the Siren together and had good hunting skills.
Sarah turned and walked out of the stern rudder, and Raven followed with the Federles.
Although the surrounding black fog is getting thicker and thicker.
But the Siren has been blessed by Lady Beard after all, and the black mist cannot directly affect the bodies of the crew.
While they were killing, they were preparing to disembark.
Suddenly, biting cold wind blew over, dispersing some of the nearby black mist.
Out of the corner of her eye, Sarah noticed Hecarim in the distance, originally staying quietly in the black mist.
But at this moment, he stepped forward gently, raising the hooked broad-bladed halberd in his hand.
Da da! Ta-ta!
【Destructive Charge】!
The sound of horse hooves sounded like the music of death, echoing in everyone's ears.
Everyone who was getting off the boat seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, their bodies almost stagnant in place, unable to move.
They felt a strong sense of oppression coming over them, and there was something terrifying approaching behind them.
Chi!
Hecarim moved his four hooves, crushed the black mist, and rushed straight towards Sarah like black lightning.
Sarah looked at Hecarim, who had arrived in front of her in an instant, and the dark sky in the middle of the night reflected a pair of cold eyes.
At this moment, unspeakable fear emerged in her heart, her body was stiff, her soul was trembling, and she was completely unable to move.
In the end, Sarah could only watch as Hecarim raised his front hooves high and slashed down the broad-bladed halberd in his hand.
"Embrace, death!"
Hecarim's action seemed very quick and simple, just harvesting Sarah's head, but it was within the attack range of the broad-bladed halberd in his hand.
Raven, Fedel and others were all shrouded in the shadow of the broad-bladed spurge.
The broad-bladed halberd fell, like the top of Mount Tai, with a terrifying aura that destroyed the world.
The surrounding black mist was instantly wiped out under the impact of this force.
Wherever the halberd passed, the air seemed to burst, making a harsh scream.
The green flames on the halberd blade suppressed the remaining light on the Siren.
Everyone looked up at the fallen broad-bladed halberd, looking desperately waiting for death to come.
Click!
The broad-bladed halberd was slashed down, and the green flames exploded, burning the air.
At the critical moment, a blue-green light shield appeared out of thin air, firmly resisting Hecarim's fatal blow.
The blue-green light shield is not only extremely tough, but also has tentacles extending out from it, protecting Sarah and others as if it is alive.
“This tentacle”
Miss Fortune Sarah’s eyes widened, her white chest heaved violently, and her breathing was extremely clear in the dark night.
Her eyes fell on those tentacles, as if she saw something familiar.
Then she seemed to react and looked down at the pink coral hanging around her neck.
This is the pendant given by Illaoi.
The talisman of Naga Kapoulos!
In the field of vision, this coral pendant is flashing with light, dispelling the surrounding black fog and bringing a pure land.
In the area covered by this light shield, the air becomes fresher, making people no longer despair.
"Did I fail the trial?" Sarah Miss Fortune whispered softly, thinking of Illaoi's earlier words.
"Captain, what should we do now?"
Raven's voice came from behind, calling Sarah's thoughts back.
Sarah immediately looked towards the black mist and saw Hecarim not far away.
Outside the blue-green light shield, Hecarim had already stopped his offensive and was looking down at Sarah and the others below.
He was a little surprised. He did not expect that a Nagakapoulos talisman would appear at the critical moment.
However, Hecarim did not go far. His eyes filled with will-o'-the-wisps were staring at the light shield in front of Sarah, and the broad-bladed halberd in his hand was eager to try.
There was a tense atmosphere in the air, and everyone held their breath, waiting for Sarah's order.
“Do you know where there is a secret escape?” Sarah asked.
Hecarim's terrifying strength was fully demonstrated in the attack just now.
If it weren’t for Nagakapoulos’ talisman, everyone would have died in the charge just now.
"I know that there is a road that leads to the Temple of Nagakapoulos."
Sock leaned out from behind Feder and spoke in a deep voice.
Sarah tried it, and the blue-green light shield formed by Nagakapoulos' talisman would move with her own pace. After hearing Sok's words, she made an immediate decision.
"Then we are ready to leave."
Under the leadership of Sok, Sarah and others left the Siren and prepared to walk towards the Butcher's Bridge to the west.
Boom!
Before they left the pier, they heard the roar of waves.
Looking back, I saw the Terror crashing into the dock as if out of control, its sails raised like a fully-stretched bowstring.
“It’s Planck.”
In the icy sea in the distance, the sea breeze slapped the hull with a biting chill.
Plank stood on the deck, his eyes piercing through the thick black fog, his expression solemn.
He vaguely felt that something was wrong with the situation, and the uneasiness in his heart was like a wave of waves surging in his heart.
Gangplank lowered his eyes and saw the Terror's hull being gradually damaged by the erosion of the black fog.
Although his crew members are protected by the statue of the Bearded Lady, there have been no casualties yet.
But he understood that this did not mean they could leave safely.
The nearby Dread Knights and ghosts frequently rush towards the Terror, making everyone frightened.
It is true that this is my own city.
He also participated in the trial of Soul Eating Night, but the timing he chose to take action was not so good.
Plank looked at the Siren on the dock in the distance. This once majestic ship had fallen into a sea of fire.
The firelight illuminated the night sky, announcing that their goal of this attack had been successfully achieved.
“It’s time to leave!”
Plank took a deep breath and suppressed his inner uneasiness.
He can now leave here with his head held high and wait for dawn to liquidate Sarah and others.
It’s just that Planck just wanted to leave.
But I saw that the black fog surrounding the Terror was getting thicker and thicker, and countless ghosts were attacking the ship under the influence of the Dread Knight.
The black fog went deeper, as if something terrifying was coming from afar.
At the same time, Frost also brought bad news.
"We may not be able to safely return to the Baru Temple along the same route."
Frost looked around at the fearful knights holding long swords and spears, feeling horrified in his heart.
"If you are halfway."
He did not finish his words.
But Planck already understood Frost's concerns.
Once the Terror stops midway or sinks to the bottom of the sea, death is the only thing waiting for them.
And the soul after death cannot be freed and will sink into the black mist forever.
Plank looked at the moving blue light shield on the dock, with a cruel look on his face, and made an immediate decision.
“Raise the sails and set sail!”
Planck shouted loudly, his firm voice echoing in the sea breeze.
"Everyone looks for bunkers, we rush directly to the coast!"
As his words fell, his crew members and pirates looked for their own bunkers one after another, clutching the weapons in their hands.
Boom!
The Terror was at full power, its roar resounded throughout the sky, and it rushed unstoppably towards the shore of the dock where the Siren was located.
From a distance, the Terror looks like a black sword cutting through the black mist and breaking up the formation of the Dread Knights.
The sea surface stirred up huge waves under the impact of the Terror, as if the sea was cheering for it.
The hull shook violently, and the crew relied on bunkers, waiting for the impact.
Click! Click! Click!
When the Terror rushed to the coast, it crushed the hard-built pier and many buildings.
For a while, dust was everywhere, wood was flying, and the sound of collapse echoed in the night sky.
Until the dust fell to the ground, revealing the severely damaged Terror.
Most of the bow of the ship was sunken, and the two originally mighty main guns hung helplessly on the dock, like the eyes of a giant beast that had lost its life.
The deck was even more littered with debris and a mess.
The wine flowing out of the broken barrels burned quickly after being contaminated by the flames. The firelight reflected the frightened faces of the crew members.
“Ahem!”
In the surging black mist, Gangplank's cough could be heard. He held a scimitar in his right hand and staggered out of the Terror.
Behind him, crew members came out one by one, supporting each other, with horror on their faces.
“Follow me!”
Plank’s eyes fell on Miss Fortune Sarah not far away, and he immediately spoke.
“Okay.”
Frost smiled as if he had survived the disaster, and just as he agreed, a cold breath suddenly came from behind.
Woo! Woohoo!
“Ahhhhh!”
Under the cold sea wind, a shrill wail came.
Glank and Frost immediately turned around and saw a familiar crew member hanging on a pair of hooks with chains.
As the hook was pulled back, a shadow slowly emerged in the black mist.
His body is covered with the purest malice in the world, and his horned head is surrounded by emerald green flames.
"Soullock Warden Thresh!"
Ganglank looked bitter, and the courage he mustered up in his heart dissipated directly under the corpse-inducing lantern in Thresh's hand.
Thrust retracted the hook and lifted the crew member hanging above, the emerald green flames in his eyes swaying.
He opened the small door on the lantern, gently swung the hook, and pulled out a transparent soul.
“An ordinary soul!”
Thrust spoke softly, the sound was like gravel rubbing against a tombstone, bringing inexplicable fear.
“Who will be next?”
He swung the hook with the chain, and the crisp sound rippled in the black mist.
"Run!"
Ganglank roared, turned around and ran towards the blue-green light shield formed by the Naga Kapoulos talisman.
Frost followed closely behind, his fat body extremely agile.
“It’s you!”
Thrust looked around, his emerald green eyes falling on the running figure.
Wow!
【Death verdict】!
The hook with the chain was thrown out, piercing the black mist, and the lingering emerald green flame left clear traces.
The next moment!
The hook passed through Frost's body, and bright red blood sprayed out and fell on the dark gray ground.
"No, I...don't want to"
Frost fell to the ground, stretched out his hands to scratch the ground, and wanted to leave.
But the huge force coming from behind pulled him back directly, and the flames emerging from his body burned, making him wail.
"Please let me go."
