When he first boarded the Yunluo, Angel noticed the prow. However, he didn't look at it carefully at the time, and he stayed in the house for more than half a month. Speaking of which, this was the first time he was so close to the statue.
Compared with the peace and tranquility of the praying girl on the Bauhinia, the head statue of the Yunluo is more evil and flamboyant.
The beautiful siren with snake hair looks like the head portrait that pirate ships like to use.
When Angel was paying attention to the statue of the ship's head, Helen was still inquiring about Nausicaa: "I dare to ask your lord, is Your Excellency Asberu in the Fan Continent now?"
Helen's tone was full of reverence and yearning.
Angel also paid attention to the statue of the head of the boat, and said casually: "She has some things to deal with, maybe she is still in the mainland, or she just finds a country and becomes a cat."
Hearing Angel's words, Helen wondered whether she should continue to ask about Nausicaa. She turned her head hesitantly, but found that Angel was looking at the statue of the ship curiously.
"My lord is interested in Medusa?"
"Medosa?"
"It's the name of this snake-haired siren. According to legend, she lives in the Devil's Sea and likes to feed on human brains, and anyone who looks directly at her will turn into stone." Helen said: "Because of her Fierce, so many ships like to set her image as a bow statue to deter sea beasts."
"However, I think it's useless, the sea beast should come or come." Helen shook her head: "Also, the story of Medusa, the Gorgon Kraken, is just an unfounded legend. Anyway, our colleagues in Baibei Shipping Company, including me I've never seen her before."
"According to what you said, if Medusa is so cruel, everyone who sees her will turn to stone, so the news will naturally not get out." Angel answered casually, "However, I am not interested in this siren. I'm not interested, I'm interested in…”
"Huh?" Helen looked over curiously.
Angel did not continue talking, but quietly looked at the palm of the Medusa statue. She was holding a conch with a light purple gem at the top of the conch.
At the first glance when boarding the ship, Angel faintly felt that the surrounding of the conch was filled with a faint nightmare atmosphere. He thought that the gem was the same as the gem between the eyebrows of the praying girl on the Bauhinia, and it was a nightmare stone.
Roman also confirmed this later.
But now when Angel looked at it again, he found that the nightmarish aura surrounding the conch had actually faded, and it was so thin that it was almost non-existent.
Is the nightmare gas restrained? Although Angel himself does not have a Nightmare Stone, he is no stranger to the Nightmare Stone's characteristics. Once the Nightmare Stone is used, it is impossible for him to restrain his breath.
Maybe the nightmare power of the nightmare stone is not enough
No matter what kind of guess it is, the Nightmare Stone has changed, but it is a clear fact.
Angel closed his eyes quietly. About a minute later, he opened his eyes, and a faint radiance flowed out from his pupils.
At the same time, in the vision that others can't see, countless information symbols are scattered from the statue of Medusa, the snake-haired siren not far away. These information symbols quickly gathered, and finally fell into the "server" of the structure in Angel's thinking space.
After a long while, Angel's brows gradually frowned.
"Sir, what are you looking at, is it the nightmare stone above the conch?" Helen's voice suddenly entered Angel's ears.
"You also know Nightmare Stone?"
"Yes, when encountering a powerful and invincible sea beast, the Nightmare Stone will be opened. However, the sea is very vast, and we have been at sea for so many years, the probability of opening this Nightmare Stone is very low. As far as I know, the Yunluo seems to have ten Opened it once a year ago, to avoid a giant emperor squid."
"It was started once ten years ago, and it has never been started again?"
"That's right."
Angel suddenly laughed: "Maybe, it won't start in the future."
Helen didn't know what Angel meant, and looked confused.
"Has anyone moved this nightmare stone recently?" Angel asked.
Helen hesitated for a moment: "No one should have moved."
"In one month, will there be other extraordinary people other than me and Roman, who have boarded the Yunluo?"
Helen still shook her head, "No."
"Oh." Angel nodded clearly, squinting at the phantom air that was blown away by the wind: "Go back, the sea breeze is too cold, it's not good to be sick."
After all, Angel turned his head and walked towards the cabin first.
Helen glanced at the bow of the boat in confusion. She didn't know the meaning of Angel's words, but she also knew that she was not qualified to ask Angel's questions. She simply shook her head and walked into the room.
After separating from Helen, Angel returned to his room expressionlessly.
As soon as he returned to the room, he heard the sound of the cloth shaking when a strong wind blew his robes from the window.
When Angel came to the balcony, he saw a figure falling on the bow of the boat. At the same time, the man turned his head to look at Angel, and it was Roman.
Roman's eyes were obscure, but the middle-aged man that Angel had transformed into, with his signature dejected and lazy expression, waved to Roman lazily.
Roman's mental power tentacle touched the nightmare stone of the statue of the ship's head, making sure that no one had touched it, and the big stone in his heart fell slightly.
At the same time, the two looked at each other for more than ten seconds.
Roman said a few words softly with his lips, then flew back to the fourth floor and disappeared.
Angel remembered the lip language and simulated it funny: "Mind your own business?"
It seems that Roman himself is not only suspicious, but also quite cautious... He and Helen stood on the side of the ship chatting for a while, at least ten meters away from the bow statue, the other party will immediately come down to confirm.
Said to be cautious, in fact, more of a guilty conscience.
Because Angel did not forget that the result he identified with the Eye of Nalda just now was not a nightmare stone at all, but a "psychedelic gem" that Medosa held in his palm.
A Psychedelic Gem is an introductory material with some phantom properties.
Compared to something as precious as the Nightmare Stone, it is simply incomparable.
Since Helen once said that the Nightmare Stone was activated ten years ago on the Yunluo, it meant that at least the Nightmare Stone was in Medusa's palm. Moreover, according to Angel's own judgment, the faint remnants of nightmare aura are enough to show that within a month, the nightmare stones were replaced with psychedelic gems.
Angel didn't dare to confirm who changed it at first. Even though Helen said that he and Roman were the only ones who had boarded the ship, there was always a margin of error. Maybe when the Yunluo was parked in the port, some extraordinary people secretly visited at night. So, he just had some doubts if Roman did it.
But now, seeing Roman nervously ran to check, plus an inexplicable warning.
There is no doubt that Roman made the act of self-stealing.
Angel, as a guest, didn't want to expose Roman in the past. On the sea where there is no front of the village and no shop behind, Roman, as the supreme commander of the Yunluo, even if he is exposed, it is useless.
Angel was suddenly curious. Since Roman dared to do this, has he thought about how to deal with the aftermath
It doesn't matter to mere mortals. If the people from the Mechanic City check it out, how should he deal with it
Suddenly, Angel was a little worried about the prospects of the Yunluo.
…
In the next few days, the Yunluo still sailed forward steadily. Although there were occasional waves, but under the calm command of the two captains, they all passed through calmly and smoothly.
However, what is more puzzling is that Angel has noticed in the past few days that Yunluo has never encountered sea beasts.
Only the weather is bad, and the sea beasts seem to have disappeared.
But Angel's confusion didn't take long, and there was a burst of shouts from outside: "There are sea beasts!"
Angel was originally immersing his spiritual power in the bracelet, discussing the tailoring and shape of clothes with Nami Ayato. Although Nano's color and aesthetics are problematic, the basic hard power of a tailor is still very solid.
As soon as he heard the shouting outside, Angel immediately withdrew his mental power, stood up and looked out.
At the end of the ocean, there was a huge sea beast that looked like a python. Its body was looming on the sea surface, and it was speeding towards the direction of Yunluo.
Angel is not very clear about the name of this sea snake, but the energy fluctuations it emits indicate its level: the peak of the apprentice.
Angel stood on the balcony, watching the python swim over from a distance.
But he didn't do it. Since Roman wanted the resources of these sea beasts so much, he might as well let him deal with them.
But when the python was less than a kilometer away from the Yunluo, Roman still didn't move.
The mortals on the deck have looked back frequently, with doubts and panic in their eyes.
Deputy Captain Helen was also commanding the dispatching staff on the deck, and at the same time, she glanced up from the corner of the eye. She saw Roman on the balcony on the fourth floor, and Pat on the third floor.
But she knows some tricks, so the main thing is to look at Roman, wondering why Roman has not moved.
But Roman was expressionless, looking into the distance indifferently, and at the same time, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Looking at that smile, Helen suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
Her eyes immediately turned to Angel, with pleading and prayers in her eyes.
Angel naturally noticed Helen's eyes, but he still didn't make a move until he was sure about Roman's attitude. I just have some doubts in my heart. Could Helen just let it go now because of her grudge against the sea beasts last time
Seeing that the sea snake was getting closer and closer, the bloody mouth of the ferocious fangs had opened... The sailors on the boat had already screamed in fear.
"Mr. Roman, why didn't you do it?" Angel asked.
After a while, Roman's voice entered the ears of everyone present: "The last time I dealt with that sea beast, my body was slightly ill, and it has not yet recovered. This sea snake may be difficult to deal with. The captain might as well change the route and deviate from its path. track."
After listening to Helen's words, Angel said in his heart: That's true.
Is his injury not healed? The surging energy fluctuations can deceive ordinary people, but how can it be deceived by extraordinary people.
And how could it be too late to deviate from the course now? His attitude is completely disregarding the lives of mortals in a boat, and the boat may even be destroyed. Is this guy crazy? Or, after stealing the Nightmare Stone, did he plan to give up this group of mortals
"Oh, it seems that it's too late to change the route. It's okay, it doesn't matter if I'm injured, isn't there an adult on board?"
Roman's eyes squinted, looking at Angel on the terrace below.
