Chapter 172

Some people were surprised and said that maybe Sea Monster was responsible, while some people sneered and said nothing, believing that this was another boring rumor fabricated by the sailors. The protagonist of the story, Old Joey, had already boarded the deck, roaring and roaring under the attack of waves and rain, until two sailors dragged him away. Two-tailed Mermaid? Li Wen withdrew his gaze and walked back to the room nonchalantly. Chapter 181 Late at night, after consuming a lot of materials, Li Wen was finally able to stably refine a high-quality healing potion without making any mistakes. According to the definition of the Roland United Kingdom Alchemist Association, this is already the standard that a qualified Potion Master should meet. The quality of potions will vary greatly depending on the materials, processing methods, refining techniques, etc. The upper and lower limits will vary greatly. Broken down is the gap between perfect, high-quality and ordinary potions. Among the same kind of potions, perfect quality potions are always 30% to 50% more effective than ordinary potions. For some types of potions, this number is even higher. Li Wen's requirement for himself is to be able to refine the perfect quality Blue Potion, or to be able to barely refine the rare level potion, which is Purple Grade. As of now, she is still far from this goal. Just when Li Wen was about to continue, she suddenly tilted her head and seemed to be listening. When did it get so quiet outside? The endless rainstorm, the roaring wind and thunder and lightning, the raging waves and the Tide, they all seemed to disappear quietly at an inexplicable moment, leaving behind a dead silence. Li Wen can't even feel the shaking and ups and downs of the ship when it sails on the sea. It is as if it has floated to a completely peaceful water surface and then stopped without any movement. This atmosphere is enough to make people shudder. No, if you listen carefully, there is still some slight movement. It made a subtle sound like a snake squirming, and the scaly, smooth body rubbed against the damp and rough deck, leaving a trail of cold and sticky paths. Li Wen has imagined this scene. Is that old sailor's experience true? Somewhat unexpected, Li Wen thought carefully. Judging from the situation she is encountering now, it seems to be very consistent with the development of that story, except... there is no such beautiful and melodious singing. Two-tailed Mermaid is a kind of aquatic Demonic Beast. They are humanoid but not human. Their body shape is similar to humans. They have webbed palms or claws that look like human hands. Their whole body is covered with fine and smooth scales, and their lower body resembles a split fish tail, so they are called "Two-tailed Mermaid". Some people say that they look scary but are weak in strength, so they will emit beautiful but illogical songs to attract and confuse prey, and will eventually eat the prey that falls asleep due to the song. But the actual situation is that Two-tailed Mermaid is Demonic Beast that moves in groups - this is extremely common in the ocean - their sharp and hard claws can cut through metal, and their layered teeth can chew clams and rocks like beans. If they move in groups, their power is enough to overturn the ship at the bottom, turning all living creatures on the ship into food. If Two-tailed Mermaid is really causing trouble, then even if you stay on the ship, you won't feel at ease. From the moment you are targeted by them, even extraordinary people will have a hard time surviving. Li Wen then shook his head. If there really were Two-tailed Mermaid, they would have already started hunting. Moreover, they did not possess overly powerful magical abilities. Things like changing the sky and calming the raging ocean were simply impossible. Could it be that the extraordinary person is pretending to be a ghost? Thinking like this, Li Wen pushed open the door. There was no light outside the door. The candles that were supposed to be always on had been extinguished. The corridor was as quiet as a cemetery. You could only feel your own heartbeat and breathing. Li Wen took out the candle that was usually used as a magic material and Ignite it. Directly opposite her room was Moria's residence, so she went up and knocked on the door. With such an abnormal situation, it was impossible for Firstborn of the Holy Temple not to notice what happened. However, the strange thing is that there is no reaction in the room, as if there is no one in it at all. The girl raised her brows and tried to push the door open, but she did it easily and the door was not locked. The room was just as she expected, empty and without anyone present. The air was filled with a cold atmosphere similar to the corridor. Li Wen observed the room carefully and noticed that the ventilation window was opened with a very small gap. The quilt on the bed was folded neatly. She stepped forward to touch it, but she felt a coldness. This meant that Moria had never slept here, and he might not even have stayed in this room for long. Li Wen walked to the window sill again. There was a thick layer of dust on it, but the bottom of the open gap was particularly clean, just a little damp. The window had been opened recently, she judged. Since Moria himself is not in his room, where should he be? Thinking like this, Li Wen left the room, but saw the blond girl who was as beautiful as a doll and as unpredictable as a doll in the corridor outside. Princess Victoria blinked, and a subtle smile appeared on her delicate face. She whispered softly, "If I remember correctly, this should be Mr. Moria's room?" "Are you looking for him?" The girl's expression did not change at all. "No, I'm looking for you." Princess explained with a smile. She was wearing a white nightdress and a gray coat. She looked soft and pitiful, so she also said in a soft and pitiful tone, "Miss Mephisto must have noticed the weirdness tonight. If it is true, The unknown Demonic Beast sneaked into the ship. A person like me who has no resistance can only rely on you two. After all, the only people I can trust on this ship are you." Li Wen didn't believe a word of what His Highness Princess said. She walked silently towards the top of the cabin, and when she was halfway there, she said, "Then you'd better follow closely, so as not to die inexplicably." The blond Princess smiled cheerfully and followed with light steps. During this period, Li Wen knocked on several doors in succession, but no sound was heard. I don't know if there is no one living in it, or if everyone is not in the room like Moria. When the two walked to the upper cabin, they saw collapsed barrels, tables and chairs, broken bottles, broken sticks, and all kinds of messy debris on the floor. There seems to have been a conflict here. Li Wen leaned down and picked up a fragment of glass. It was stained with coagulated blood. Judging from the degree of drying, it was at least three or four hours ago. That was the time when the storm was at its most violent. If a fierce fight had occurred, it would have been covered up by the sounds of waves, wind and rain. Really picked a good time. Li Wen said nothing, straightened his cloak and walked out of the cabin. I didn't meet anyone along the way. Either everyone on the boat suddenly disappeared at a certain moment, or... she, and Victoria were all involved in some kind of illusion or magic field. Chapter 182 Kingdom Navy The night outside the cabin was as thick as ink, and the deck was empty and silent. There was no sign of any living creatures. Although the patched canvas was spread all over the mast, it was drooping in the windless silence. Such a weird atmosphere did not affect Li Wen. She walked onto the deck, came to the side of the ship, and looked out at the deep, ink-like ocean. The sea is as calm as a dark mirror, and just staring at it feels like your soul will be swallowed up. The girl thought for a while, took out an acorn from Fairy Pocket, and then threw it into the sea. In some stories, the fruits and leaves of the oak tree have the power to bring luck, clear away fog, and provide guidance.
