The pale and sticky water ghost had already moved in front of him.
Shen Yu's eyes sank, and his fingers pressed the black book beside him.
If the water ghost pounces on him in the next second, he can immediately activate his skills, bind the opponent with blood threads, and buy himself time to escape.
Or use the chainsaw skill to face the enemy head-on with the water ghost.
Whether it is fighting or fleeing, he always has some leeway.
But the water ghost, with its nostrils panting heavily, searched back and forth around him, and looked at him with its pale and swollen face, but did not respond at all.
It was as if he didn't exist at all.
Almost instantly, Shen Yu seemed to understand something, his eyes turned, and he looked at his feet.
He was standing at the bottom of the ship's lights at this moment, and under the illumination of the surrounding bright lights, his own shadow was shrunk under his feet, almost invisible.
And under the feet of the water ghost, there is also no shadow that should exist.
There was a strange light in Shen Yu's eyes, and he recalled the second half of the song when Chris hummed again.
"Come hide and seek with me! Be careful not to let me catch you."
"Stay with me! From now on."
"Don't move, don't breathe, hide your shadow."
"Hush! I'm coming for you..."
Don't move, don't breathe, hide your shadow...
The water ghost in front of him can not only smell the breath of living people, but also feel the shadow of living people!
And the first mate Jack turned on all the lights of the ship just now, under the light of the lights, as long as Shen Yu remains still, he can hide his shadow.
He held his breath for an instant, his whole body's nerves were tense, his fingers were clenched white on the black book, and he stared at the monster in front of him, almost like a gambler, motionless.
If he bet wrong, he would lose his life.
"Why doesn't this kid run away? Was he scared stupid? He really is a waste!"
Aolong, who was hiding in the barrier, couldn't help muttering softly when he saw the scene in front of him.
Goodnight glared at him fiercely.
He glanced at the other party, full of disgust, and under constant thinking, Good Night turned his heart and quietly withdrew his barrier skills.
As for Aolong, he still didn't realize it at this time.
The water ghost stopped in front of Shen Yu, and his heavy, foul breath almost fell on his face.
After a brief pause, the water ghost moved its heavy body around Shen Yu.
It raised its head, twitched the tip of its nose, and moved straight to the corner where Wanan and Aolong were hiding.
Goodnight hurriedly held her breath, imitating Shen Yu's appearance, and pressed her body tightly against the cabin, motionless.
Only then did Aolong discover that the opponent had already removed the hidden barrier.
"Damn it! You bastard..."
Aolong was furious instantly, trying to force the opponent to use his skills again.
But at this time, the water ghost suddenly quickened his pace, and was very close to the two of them.
Even if he didn't turn his head, Aolong could clearly smell the unpleasant smell of the sea on the water ghost.
His expression changed suddenly, he didn't care about teaching the young man, he suddenly jumped out of the hiding place and fled in the opposite direction.
He used his own life-saving skills, his legs were like rabbits, and his speed of escape far exceeded that of ordinary people.
But just after he started running, under the bright lights of the ship, the shadow behind him was like a tail, closely following him.
The shadow moved.
The water ghost knew that he was a living person, not the same kind.
As if receiving a clear signal, the water ghost, which was originally clumsy and slow, suddenly raised its head high, fluttered its frail limbs, and chased after him at a speed that no one could have imagined.
He walked around Good Night who was also motionless, just staring at the running Aolong, and he had chased after him in a blink of an eye.
Unexpectedly, the speed of the opponent's pursuit was so fast, Aolong suddenly panicked, used his skills again, took out a translucent shield from the book, and threw it back hard behind him.
The shield hit the slippery skin with no effect. The water ghost raised its sharp claws and easily tore apart the opponent's last defense.
Aolong, who was invincible before, has no life-saving skills at this time, and his mind suddenly goes blank, and he instinctively wants to scream.
The moment he opened his mouth, the water ghost suddenly thrust its claws into his mouth, and slowly tore open his scalp.
Under the shocked eyes of the other three, the water ghost forcefully squeezed his own head in from Aolong's torn mouth.
Immediately afterwards, the swollen and festered flesh squirmed, and the huge water ghost seemed to turn into a worm, devouring Aolong's flesh and blood, and burrowed into his skin.
The dangling human skin shook a few times, and slowly stood up.
Immediately afterwards, under the bright light, an intact "Aolong" stood in front of everyone again.
A water ghost in human skin!
After "Aolong" stood up again, he narrowed his eyes uncomfortably, and smiled sinisterly at the others, showing his pale teeth, and his torn mouth was still twisted.
However, it didn't do much, it just staggered forward with two legs and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
After the swaying figure of the other party disappeared, the remaining few people breathed a sigh of relief.
Starscream, who had just escaped in advance, landed back on the cabin again, and said to Shen Yu in an appreciative tone: "Fortunately, you didn't just run away directly."
"If you run away, I'm afraid the one being chased by the water ghost will be you!"
But Shen Yu had a complex expression on his face, and asked, "Among the crowd dancing in the past two days, how many are still real living people?"
How many people, like Aolong, have been quietly put on human skin by water ghosts
He finally understood why the dance partners were always asking: Do you want to stay? Want to join us
This is the truth about "Join"!
The staff on board will give you an irresistible temptation. People in the bottom cabin can only endure insult, hunger and danger, but people in the upper cabin can enjoy a safe, luxurious and noble life.
Under this kind of instigation, I am afraid that many "upper class people" will not be able to resist the temptation, and have already agreed to "join" them.
And the water ghosts who successfully replaced the living people lived among the crowd in a grandiose manner.
At this moment, Starscream suddenly raised a question: "But what happened to Jack, the first officer on this ship?"
"It stands to reason that the master copy should be of the same mind as the captain. But just now, he quietly turned on all the lights of the ship by himself."
It was also because of the boat lights that Shen Yu discovered the secret of the shadow.
"The upper-class people, the lower-class people, the captain, the first mate, the water ghost... the interpersonal relationship on this ship is really complicated!"
Shen Yu couldn't help rubbing the center of his brows, and said with a headache.
"Let's continue to search for those lighted ship lights, maybe we can find the first mate Jack." Starscream suggested.
Goodnight also jumped out in a hurry: "Take me, Brother Tang! I want to follow you."
After what happened just now, he seemed to be more convinced of Shen Yu.
Shen Yu, on the other hand, turned his attention to the bottom of the cruise ship: "The lights on the bottom are also gradually turning on."
"Mate Jack should be in the lower cabin."
…
"Head, did you find anything?"
At the same time, Yue Ze and Zhang Cuihua had sneaked out of the bottom cabin, successfully opened the closed hatch, and slipped into the cab.
The cab, which was supposed to be the most important, was quiet inside, and there was no one guarding it, only darkness.
With the faint starlight, Zhang Cuihua groped for a bunch of tools in the cab.
"Uninflated buoys, folded lifeboats... why are these things piled up in the cockpit?" she asked, frowning.
But Yue Ze found a thick book on the console of the cab.
The captain's diary.
Ignoring the darkness around him, he turned the pages of the book and started reading in the dark.
[May 3rd, overcast.]
[Shipworms, disgusting shipworms everywhere!]
[These dirty, filthy inferiors, they will dirty the eyes of noble passengers.][It's disgusting to have to stay on the same boat as these shipworms!][May 6th, sunny.]
[After three days of hard work, all those bad species were finally driven to the bottom cabin.][I'm in a good mood!]
[Let them take on the job of catching shipworms! Anyway, these inferior species are no different from shipworms.][June 2nd, sunny.]
[Sailors reported that some shipworms died while working.]
[What is there to report on such a trivial matter?]
[Just throw the body into the water.]
[June 5th, overcast.]
[We deviated from the sailing route inexplicably, which makes people feel a little irritable.][June 6th, overcast.]
[Is there something in the water?]
[June 10th, overcast.]
[We're lost, damn it!]
[June 15th, sunny.]
[Don't be discouraged, after all, we are on the "White Angel"!][White is always pure and always great!]
[Just like our race.]
[June 20th, overcast.]
[The food on board is getting less and less, and some noble gentlemen and ladies have begun to express their dissatisfaction.][Are those bottom shipworms dead? Are they still wasting food?][The current situation is somewhat difficult, but fortunately, my sincere and capable deputy has been firmly supporting me.][June 22nd, overcast.]
[Recently, my deputy Jack seems to be a little absent-minded, and seems to always run to the bottom cabin?][He is the first mate of this ship, and my favorite subordinate.]
[I should trust him.]
[June 25th, overcast.]
[Sailors report that Jack is quietly delivering food to the lower cabin.][What is he doing?]
[In this difficult time, why waste food for those shipworms?][I should keep an eye on him myself.]
[June 30th, sunny.]
[I caught him!]
[Unbelievable, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have imagined it—a male! An inferior male!][When I caught Jack with my own hands, he was staying with that scumbag!][The relationship between them is very close.]
[July 1st, overcast.]
[I figured out why Jack was abnormal during this time.]
[nausea! Disgusting! A relationship spurned by the Lord and cursed by the devil! ][The upper class and the lower class, noble whites and inferiors, males and males...][I'm about to throw up!]
[July 2nd, overcast.]
[Jack is my most promising deputy. During this difficult time, I cannot do without his help for the time being.][But I can't let him go astray.]
[So I dealt with that inferior shipworm.]
[July 3rd, sunny.]
[Jack was a little silent, but he didn't express any objection.]
[Haha, I knew he was just going astray for a while, but he will eventually return to the embrace of the Lord.][He just became a little quiet.]
[July 5th, overcast.]
[What's going on, the bottom cabin is leaking?]
[Didn't those inferior slackers salvage the shipworms that gnawed on the ship planks?][July 6th, overcast.]
[The water leakage problem is getting worse and worse, and those inferior species have also begun to rebel.][Where is my first mate?]
[July 7th, overcast.]
[Shipworms are everywhere, disgusting shipworms are everywhere!]
[The end of "White Angel" is coming.]
[The life-saving tools are all locked in the cab by me, and those inferior species can't be saved.]Until the end of the voyage diary, Captain Hans still wrote the last sentence viciously on the drenched pages with trembling handwriting: [These disgusting shipworms...]
Koshizawa closed the diary, and silently looked at the entrance of the cab in the dark.
There was a person standing at the door, watching them quietly.
Yue Ze greeted him lightly:
"Good evening, Mate Jack!"
