Suddenly, the sound of waves hitting the ship's hull came, not very heavy, and it seemed unusual on the sea.
Mu Heng frowned slightly and looked out the porthole.
In the distance is suffocating darkness, and the pitch-black sea water is swaying against the fog, like thick ink, completely unable to be penetrated by the line of sight.
Mu Heng turned his head, raised his hand and rubbed the soft top of the young man's hair, and said:
"wait for me."
Shi An blinked and gave an obedient "Oh".
After the opponent's figure left the hatch, he looked down at his fingertips wrapped in band-aids.
The movement of the joints is somewhat limited, although there is still a dull pain, but it is much better.
But I don't know why, the burning touch left by the other party's lips and tongue seems to stay there, unable to dissipate for a long time.
He frowned slowly, with a look of confusion on his face.
Mu Heng left the cabin and came to the pilot room.
The members of the bureau responsible for sailing the ship were all surprised when they saw Mu Heng. Obviously, they didn't think why the chief came here suddenly.
One of them asked cautiously: "Sir, what instructions do you have?"
Mu Heng shook his head and looked out the window of the pilot room.
The view here is much clearer than the porthole, but it is not much stronger.
This sea area is covered by dense fog, especially in the middle of the night, it is almost impossible to see the distant channel, and can only use radar to guide the way.
The radar was also dark, only the green indicator in the center representing the ship flashed regularly.
There is nothing unusual.
However, Mu Heng's brow furrowed tighter.
He turned to look at the crew on the side, and asked, "Are there any weapons on board?"
The crew was startled and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes."
Although it is a speedboat known for its speed, it was built for combat after all, and basic attack devices are still available.
"How much area can it cover at most?" Mu Heng asked.
Crew: "With the ship as the center, about three or three nautical miles?"
Mu Heng: "Enough."
He squinted his eyes, tapped the metal tabletop with his fingertips, and said slowly: "Launch."
The crew was startled: "Send, launch?"
He lowered his head and glanced at the radar disk. The image above hadn't changed at all compared with just now. There were no other ships in the entire sea area except them.
The crew murmured, "Which...Which way is it going?"
Mu Heng: "Just ahead."
He thought for a while and added: "Use your most dynamic weapon."
Although puzzled, the superior’s instructions cannot be violated.
The crew was skillfully maneuvering on the screen. Soon, the hull shook slightly with the rapid energy filling, making a harsh roar. Then, only a sharp scream cut through the darkness and silence, powerful The wave of magic power struck straight ahead!
"Team, Captain, the other side attacked us!"
On the pitch-black mercenary ship, the mercenary in charge of steering turned his head in panic and looked at the mercenary captain in the pilot room.
The mercenary captain was also taken aback: "Fuck, how is it possible?"
This prop for masking the breath is one of the dragon's treasures, how could it be seen through
He hurriedly stepped forward and looked out.
The strong magical fluctuations caused the air to roll, the waves roared, and a small part of the sky was illuminated, but through the thick and hazy fog, they could not see where the opponent's attack came from.
The mercenary captain gritted his teeth and seemed a little uncertain.
He turned his head and roared into the communicator: "So have you finished yet?"
There was an electric current in the voice opposite: "Report to the captain! Not yet... Zizi... Yes, it will take some time for these abyss stones to activate."
The stones on the ship are simply bombs. If they were hit, they might be wiped out.
The mercenary captain finally made up his mind and ordered viciously:
"His grandma, avoid it, avoid it!"
As soon as his voice fell, several ships immediately changed directions at the fastest speed.
The magic power covering the ship's body caused waves of waves due to such an urgent action.
Mu Heng lowered his eyes, his gaze fell on the radar pan.
Several icons appeared, flickered, and disappeared in the dark sea just ahead.
The crew took a breath: "This, this is..."
Mu Heng was not surprised.
He put his hand on the hilt of the sword and calmly ordered: "Ready to fight."
far away.
The captain of the mercenary looked out of the porthole, the wave of dangerous red light was deeply submerged in the dark picture, and the position was far from where they were just now.
His expression became gloomy, raised his hand, angrily grabbed his beard, and forcefully pulled off a few.
Damn it, fooled.
Fog is a perfect tool for them to cover their whereabouts, but the same is true on the opposite side.
At this moment, a voice came from the microphone again.
This time, the noise of the previous current interference has been reduced a lot: "Report to the captain, the arrangement is over!"
The mercenary captain took a deep breath, as if he was relieved.
There was a cold smile on his face: "Since the dark can't get through, let's be clear."
In the dark and thick fog, the shadows of several hulls gradually appeared, like ghosts floating on the sea, from all directions, quietly approaching the only speedboat not far away, revealing the hideous fangs.
Inside the cabin.
The vibrations and the sound of waves from outside mixed together, and they came through the metal wall.
Although I don't know what happened, I can still feel the strong magical fluctuations from the outside.
At this moment, Shi An seemed to feel something and turned to look in a certain direction.
Unlike the bustle in front of the ship, there was silence there.
However, just now, Shi An could clearly feel that a brand-new abyss crack was spreading on the right rear side of the ship.
Perhaps because of the previous experience, Shi An was not confused by the temptation whisper this time.
He paused, and shook three monsters out of the magic expansion bag.
They were originally in a dormant state, but at this moment, Shi An was ruthlessly tossed them up.
The eyeball rubbed his own eyes: "My lord, what's the matter?"
Shi An pondered for a few seconds, and asked: "Last time you said, how many more Eyes of the Abyss will I absorb to restore the state of prosperity?"
The eyeballs froze, hesitatingly said: "Three?"
It thought for a while and added: "If it is a well-developed abyss crack, maybe two are enough."
Shi An's eyes shimmered slightly.
He turned his head to look at the black smoke on the side:
"The magic circle that can transform the magic in the eyes of the abyss into the dragon's body, is there in that book?"
Hei Yanzi recalled it carefully, then hesitated and said:
"It seems that there is one that is very similar, but that group of humans should have modified it, so that the magic in it can be introduced into your body, and if you follow the original version, I am afraid it will..."
Just like last time, let the untreated magic power flow into the body.
Shi'an interrupted it:
"You don't need to worry about this. I will ask you, if you give you enough materials, can you reproduce it?"
Black Smoke nodded affirmatively: "No problem!"
That book has been read thousands of times, and there is absolutely no problem in drawing it.
Shi Anji stood up: "Okay! Go!"
The devil was a little stunned: "...Huh? Your lord, where are we going?"
I saw the boy in front of me squinting his eyes and showing a smile:
"robbery."
The night and fog were stirred by strong magical fluctuations, like a dark vortex. The howling of the waves engulfed the sound of fighting and screams of Jin Ge's fighting. The ships in front were fighting, and in the rear where no one cared, count The small boat was hiding quietly in the darkness.
In front of the boat, a dark gap suddenly cracked on the surface of the sea, but no sea water dripped into it.
A deep breath of darkness was released from it.
On the ship, the mercenaries stared at the crack in the abyss not far away, and they were a little stunned:
"Unexpectedly, it can actually be made."
"Don't underestimate the group of neuroses. They have been active for a long time. The ghost knows how many things we don't know are in the hands of those old immortals."
"But speaking of it, why did they create the abyss here?"
"The ghost knows, anyway, we do what we should do, and then we can get paid and leave..."
Before the words fell, there was a soft thud from the deck not far away.
Everyone stopped immediately.
The mercenaries looked at each other and saw the same alert in each other's eyes.
Although there are their people towing and the bureau's boat in the distance, they must not be taken lightly.
After all, this is the sea, in case something really happens, they don't even have a place to run.
The mercenaries drew their weapons and approached cautiously in the direction of the sound.
All around, there was a thick, liquid-like mist covering the bow of the ship in darkness.
The teenager stood alone on the deck, looking out of tune with the surroundings.
He frowned and was using his slender, white fingers to firmly twist the corners of his clothes soaked in sea water.
As if noticing the sight from all directions, the boy raised his eyelashes, revealing a pair of wet dark eyes.
Facing the mercenaries who surrounded him with fierceness and wickedness in front of him, he just greeted him friendly:
"good evening."
The mercenaries looked at each other.
They hesitated for a while, but they didn't know whether to attack or wait.
"that… "
The young man raised his hand to make gestures at them: "The black stones you brought over should have leftovers, right?"
He smiled shyly:
"If you don't mind, can you hand it over?"
Mu Heng stood on the half-tilted deck, with sea water and blood splashed on the surface of the jet-black boots, holding a magical long sword in his palm.
The sword light cut through the darkness.
The enemy on the opposite side had no time to scream, they were already in a different place.
He was not going to use the long sword hanging from his waist. The blood of these humans was not worthy to dye its blade red.
As time went by, Mu Heng's brows slowly frowned.
This attack was obviously different from usual.
These mercenaries in front of them obviously have other ideas, and they often avoid themselves, but this time they completely ignore the large power gap, as if moths are as extreme and crazy as moths are fighting fire, and they are straight towards him. Pounced in the direction.
Although Mu Heng did hit this group of mercenaries severely, but...
revenge
It doesn't seem to be the same.
The ice-cold sword's edge was like a frozen moonlight, and it easily cut off the palm of a mercenary, and the blood red splashed out covered the darkness.
A few drops of scarlet blood fell on the hilt.
Mu Heng paused, looking down at Long Sword.
Could it be...
At this moment, the sword body seemed to sense something, and suddenly began to hum and vibrate, and that sword chant brought a familiar wave of magical power.
Mu Heng was slightly startled, and recovered from the concentration state brought about by the killing.
Around him, this fight is still going on.
The air was filled with the fishy smell of sea water and the rusty smell of blood. The fierce magical fluctuations stirred the surrounding night and made it thick and dense, covering almost everything else.
And in this chaotic breath, there is a little bit of distant, strange fluctuations that don't belong here.
Mu Heng raised his eyes and looked into the distance.
The dark sea surface and the chaotic fog blend together, like turbid, insoluble ink.
However, if you look carefully into the night fog, you can see a faint red color.
It's like firelight.
It was burning and beating on the dark sea, releasing light and heat outward.
-fire
Mu Heng's eyebrows wrinkled tightly.
In the night fog, several ships were burning on the sea, the blazing fire light penetrated the night, and the crackling burning sound was mixed with the smell of burnt flesh and fat.
The raging fire and screams were left behind by the young man, and the scarlet flames of blood were reflected in the depths of the pitch-black eyes.
He jumped easily from the edge of the abyss.
This abyss has just appeared. The gap is narrow and the edges are fuzzy. The sea is turbulent at the boundary of the two, but it seems to be blocked by an invisible wall, which looks faint and fantasy.
Since the appearance time is too short, there is no abyss species to crawl out of it for the time being.
Shi'an is not worried about it being discovered.
It didn't take him much effort to find the position of the Eye of the Abyss.
It was just born, only the size of a thumb, with black and red eyes slowly turning, releasing a very clear and sweet breath from it.
Shi An subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and the golden-red light flashed across his eyes.
The black smoke flew out of the bag, and the other two monsters helped it, using the abyss stone that Shi'an had snatched from the mercenary ship to start arranging the magic circle.
Soon, they were finally completed.
The boy walked into the center of the circle.
The blood-red light lit up, and the Eye of the Abyss struggled and wriggled, but the magic contained in it was still continuously drawn out.
Indeed, as Black Smoke said, these magical powers were directly incorporated into Shi'an's body without any treatment or transformation.
Shi An's eyes were quickly engulfed by the golden flames.
The pupils shrank into a narrow gap, and silver-white scales emerged from under the skin, covering the white and soft skin, reflecting the red light of the magic circle, appearing weird and evil.
However, he did not directly return to the form of a dragon this time.
Shi An could feel that after the last time, he has become stronger now.
It is strong enough to control the energy flowing into one's own body without being swallowed and controlled by it.
He unskilledly touched the gray-black magic power in his body, manipulating them to gather together instead of raging around.
Although these magical powers cannot be used for the time being, but... as long as you master the method, they can be absorbed.
Thinking of the so-called "method"—
Shi An coughed unnaturally, and the tip of his ears became a little blush.
As time passed by little by little, the color of the Eye of the Abyss gradually became dimmed. In the end, only hearing a "bang" sound, the Eye of the Abyss burst open and turned into silent ashes.
The lines of the magic circle on the ground dimmed.
Shi An staggered, half-kneeling on the ground.
He is half dragon now
The silver-white wings tore the clothes, the wings densely covered with delicate scales spread out behind the back, and the long dragon tail also appeared, flicking left and right restlessly.
The gold-red vertical pupils narrowed slightly, and the fire gleamed in the bottom of his eyes.
The powerful pressure that belonged to the dragon escaped from him, pressing down like a huge invisible rock.
On board.
A close encounter has ended.
Because of losing the advantage of sneak attack, the mercenary side quickly exposed the lack of strength.
Several of their ships were wrecked, and the remaining wreckage sank slowly and silently into the cold water, and was completely swallowed in a few seconds.
Although Mu Heng's boat was not so bad, it also left a lot of wounds on its body. Some of the engines were unable to operate due to the flooding. The crew on board were rushing around, repairing them at the fastest speed. The breach in the cabin tried to save the current slump.
Mu Heng walked on the remnants of the mercenary ship, and the dark soles of his boots stepped on the hard deck, leaving blood-stained footprints one after another.
Although Wen Yao was injured in his left arm, there was nothing serious about it.
She came over and reported the battle to Mu Heng.
After listening quietly, Mu Heng asked, "Have you left alive?"
Wen Yao: "Yes."
Mu Heng nodded.
This night attack by the mercenary was actually a good thing for him.
When Mu Heng came to the Ross District this time, the first thing he did was to track down and eliminate the location of the mercenary base.
Because if they want to attract the dragon, they must get the dragon's treasure, but they are in the hands of mercenaries.
This time, this group of mercenaries took the initiative to send them to the door, which can be said to be very timely.
but…
Mu Heng's mind at the moment is not here.
He raised his head and looked in a certain direction where the fire had just lit up.
Now, the flame was extinguished, and only a dark night fog remained, as if the light spots that had previously lit up were nothing more than Mu Heng's illusion.
Mu Heng frowned, turned his head and said to Wen Yao:
"Is there a magic detector?"
Wen Yao was startled, obviously he didn't expect Mu Heng to ask for this thing.
After all, the battle is over now, isn't it
She quickly came to a sense of relief, did not ask much, but removed the detector from her waist and handed it over.
Mu Heng took it.
He walked to the side of the deck and turned on the detector.
After a few seconds, he walked back and threw the detector back to Wen Yao.
Mu Heng's voice was cold and indifferent: "I'll leave it to you here."
After speaking, he turned around and hurriedly walked towards the direction of the ship, his slender figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Wen Yao subconsciously lowered his head and looked at the detector.
She was startled slightly.
Although the amount is small, but... the detector seems to have captured a little magic from the abyss.
Strange, here is clearly on the sea, how can there be fluctuations in the magic of the abyss
The three monsters shrank in the corner tremblingly, watching nervously at the half-man, half-dragon young man not far away, for fear that he would lose his mind like the last time and start to attack and slaughter indiscriminately.
The devil asked cautiously: "Big... Your lord, how are you doing?"
After an extremely long few seconds.
Shi An slowly closed his eyes and exhaled tremblingly.
The silver-white scales slowly faded from his cheeks.
When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had returned to the pitch black of a human, and the wings and tail behind him were controlled and retracted little by little.
Shi An stood up slowly and said in a slightly dumb voice: "... It's okay."
He raised his head and glanced towards the sky.
As the Eye of the Abyss disappeared, the crack in the abyss was also dissipating, the invisible wall that had been blocked before was gone, and the turbulent sea was rushing inward quickly, and he passed his ankle in an instant.
The sea was so cold that Shi'an shuddered uncontrollably.
I don't know when it started, the sound of fighting outside has ceased, leaving only the sound of the roaring sea breeze and the rolling waves.
Shi An calculated the time in his mind, then reached out to the three monsters and said quickly:
"Let's go, we should leave now."
The blood stains on the ground were being washed, the crew and members of the bureau hurried past, and everyone seemed very busy.
Mu Heng moved quickly across the deck.
The man's eyebrows were indifferent, his thin lips pressed tightly, and his body was still carrying the heavy blood after the killing. The coat was picked up by the sea breeze, and the corners of his clothes rolled and stirred, like a dark cloud that was torn off.
Seeing Mu Heng approaching, the members of the bureau subconsciously avoided them far, for fear of touching the other side's mold.
He came to the cabin unobstructed all the way, never stopping.
Mu Heng stood still at the hatch.
He paused, raised his hand, and tapped the metal hatch with his knuckles: "... Shi'an?"
No one answered.
Mu Heng slightly raised his silver-white eyelashes, and a pair of azure blue eyes settled on the metal hatch in front of him, his expression deep and unpredictable.
He pressed his palm on the hatch, applying a little force.
The door slowly slid open before his eyes.
Mu Heng looked around calmly.
-There is no one in the room.
Empty and icy, like a huge cave.
At this moment, there was a "click" sound of the door lock being pushed in the room, which suddenly broke the silence.
Mu Heng's eyes were dark, and he walked into the room.
I saw the bathroom door was slightly pushed open a gap, and the warm and steaming white water vapor escaped from it.
The boy's dark, wet eyes looked through the crack of the door, and his white face was flushed:
"… you are back?"
Mu Heng looked at him and nodded.
"That..." There was a little hesitation on the boy's face. After struggling for two seconds, he finally said in a very low volume as if he had made up his mind: "I, I forgot to bring my bathrobe in."
The boy’s voice is even smaller:
"Can you pass it for me?"
He stuck a naked arm from the crack in the door.
The slender fingertips showed a pale pink, and the extremely fair skin was reddish after being scalded. Transparent water droplets slipped from the soft finger pads and dripped onto the carpet, dizzying a small, circular wet mark.
