On the bridge of this airship.
People in imperial costumes are busy coming and going... The image projected by the unknown crystal presents a dangerous crimson red.
"what happened?"
Standing on the seat in the center of the bridge, there was a captain with white hair and a thick beard who did not look old at all, the captain of the "Farewell to the Tempest", he stood up, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked out the window at the clouds that were as dark as night.
The few lightning flashes from time to time are particularly penetrating.
"Commander, didn't you say that it is absolutely impossible for this route to encounter stormy weather?"
"This... Captain... the weather in the sky should not be as changeable as at sea"
"Should?" The captain glared angrily at the middle-aged men sitting on the console in front.
"However, the weather in this area seems a little strange. The clouds of thunder and lightning gather almost instantly." One of them wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Heh, is it possible that who can do something to this sky?"
As the captain, he spent almost all his life on this airship, from a young and ignorant handyman in the sky port to the current position of captain.
The experience of sailing in the sky is definitely no worse than anyone present.
"Raise the height above the thunder and lightning clouds! Don't let the guests be frightened! Your Royal Highness can be among them... If there is something wrong, you and your family will be compensated, but you can't forgive this crime!"
"Yes Yes…"
The operators below responded again and again.
That's probably why they're so nervous.
Originally a girl who was known to the world because of the title of princess, but now she is a hero. Once again, her real name was remembered by the world, not an unknown person who was called the emperor.
The real heir, during the Battle of Buried Jincheng, the power of Her Royal Highness has long been rumored to be miraculous
After all, one sword cut a monster close to the city wall into two.
What saved Miss Priest at the hands of the notorious organization Undertaker, who is almost the shadow of everyone in the world
Originally, people in the world thought that the princess was just a lucky daughter of common people... But after the Battle of Jincheng, there were gradually some people who supported the queen to inherit the throne.
The captain didn't have anything to say about this, but the other party was a high-ranking princess, second only to His Highness the Emperor, if he didn't treat her well, he would never want to continue in this life.
"Boss... Captain! The power furnace of the airship seems... seems to be broken?"
"What?" The captain was startled.
Sure enough, the moment the voice fell. The airship suddenly stopped in mid-air. The resulting inertia almost made the captain fall to the ground.
Damn it! Why did all the bad luck happen to me today!
The captain glanced at the worsening weather outside the window and made a decisive decision.
"What does the maintenance department do? Give them ten minutes to repair the power furnace!"
captain roar
"No response!" The correspondent replied weakly: "The maintenance department cannot be reached! They have not responded"
The area of this airship is very large, and the personnel responsible for maintaining the airship usually live on the bottom floor of the airship. The way of communication is also through which special crystal to talk. And give orders.
"No response? Damn it" The captain's inner anxiety became more and more intense. What a coincidence, everything is a coincidence!
When it hit the thunder cloud, the power furnace of the airship broke down!
Intuition made the captain continue to speak out the order loudly.
"Turn the monitoring crystal screen to the rest room of the maintenance department! Now"
Is it air robbers? The savages who took over the sky
The captain remained calm. The voice is so sonorous and powerful.
"Ming...Understood!"
But when the correspondent adjusted the screen to the maintenance room, the bridge fell into a strange atmosphere of silence.
Blood... every corner of the screen is covered with blood, where a few jet-black creatures are wriggling, and human limbs have fallen to the ground
They are eating human flesh and blood!
Finally a monster finally realized that something was watching them, and it pounced...
The final picture ends with the scene of a ferocious face stained with blood rushing forward.
The dead silence was finally broken by the captain's order.
"Everyone is ready to fight! Arm the guards! Protect the passengers... The airship is invaded by unknown creatures! Alert level one! Run! Quick!"
"Ship...Captain...something seems to be swaying over the glass!"
A timid driver pointed to the glass that was hit by rain and lightning, and the gloomy color of the sky made people breathless.
"Boy! I don't have time to listen to your nonsense now! If you are afraid, get off this airship!"
The captain wanted to continue to order, but the cold breath representing death hit his whole body!
His body froze, not daring to move, a dagger was pressed against his neck
Trembling, eyes slowly looked aside
A pair of scarlet pupils shone brightly in the darkness.
"Ship...Captain! Behind you is...there is...a ghost!"
The captain didn't answer his men anymore, because his head had already fallen to the ground with the bloom of blood.
A figure in a gray robe stood in front of everyone.
"Time to gift death"
Rough to piercing sounds echoed in the bridge.
Lightning pierced the sky, illuminating the interior of the bridge, reflecting the metal skull mask and the scarlet pupils with deep sarcasm into everyone's eyes
This was the last scene they saw in their lives.
The dagger is raised slightly...
The bodies of more than 20 people inside the bridge were severed and torn... Blood gushed out and splashed on the ground made of steel.
None of them survived, they didn't even have the right to escape, and they died
Lu Qiu stood on the bridge, smelling the bloody smell that wafted wantonly in the air. The gloomy sky was the best support for Lu Qiu.
Picking up the blood-stained dagger, Lu Qiu walked towards the console step by step, the gray windbreaker fluttered, and the tattered corner was stained with the color of blood.
Lu Qiu picked up a small and exquisite crystal according to the memories in the brains of those humans who had just been killed.
This crystal can transmit any information to any corner of the airship.
What should I say
You have been kidnapped! Everyone dies or something
No…
Lu Qiu did not forget the identity he played.
A member of the Undertaker, the most feared assassin organization in this world, a mortician who gives the dead the final dignity...
assassin, assassin, killer
These are all Lu Qiu's identities.
And not a butcher! robber! Executioner!
Only kill one person, and after giving death to the target, walk away! This is what assassins should do.
Now, the target of this assassin is the life of His Royal Highness, Naye Dodran.
So let's talk about the massacre at that time.
Lu Qiu spoke, and his voice became very soft.
"Good evening, citizens of the empire, please don't panic about this storm. The airship will survive this storm safely. The central capital is not far from here... Tonight is a wonderful night, so please enjoy it, this... wonderful night!"
After saying everything, the crystal in Lu Qiu's hand fell to the ground...broken
In this room with only corpses, it should have been very quiet.
But a discordant voice sounded.
The scarlet pupils turned sideways, looking at a surviving human on the ground who was about to escape.
"Send... Undertaker No... Don't kill me!"
He didn't feel fear because of the corpses all over the ground, but because of the existence standing in front of him!
the ghost everyone fears
It's just that fear can't make him cling to his own life.
The dagger pierced through the silent night, once again adding a touch of scarlet to the darkness.
A dagger pierced the surviving human's brain, nailing his body to the wall behind him!
Blood flowed down the wall, only the expression of fear was permanently frozen on his face.
"What a...beautiful...night."
There was an inexplicable [excitement] in the rough voice. (To be continued..)
