Chapter 180

The method, of course, may also be the method to lift the curse, but in short it is not much different. However, to use the spell, you must be close to the statue, otherwise it will be meaningless. Perhaps this is why Old Joey arranged "Sea Calling Curse" everywhere on the ship. He was sure that the statue of Two-tailed Mermaid still existed on the ship, and wanted to use a spell to stop the curse of Two-tailed Mermaid, but due to some kind of instinct to seek good luck and avoid evil, the statue always avoided him. Under such circumstances, Old Joey can only beg for the power of "Sea Calling Curse" to help him get the statue back. But what he doesn't seem to know is that the activated Two-tailed Mermaid statue can use this power to guide some people it is happy to see to its side, and then swallows those people in one bite as a ration to maintain its will. Yes, dead things are just dead things after all. The Two-tailed Mermaid statue can maintain its own state for thirty years without being driven by anyone. I'm afraid it can eat people. And how can mortal flesh and blood compare to the extraordinary? Therefore, Two-tailed Mermaid would pull her and Victoria into that lightless sea even at the risk of being discovered. But when Li Wen entered Witch State and showed strength far beyond her own stage, the statue released her in time. Victoria was able to return to the ship probably because of this. "In the final analysis... it's just a dead thing that bullies the weak and fears the strong." Li Wen put the diary in his pocket and opened the door. She avoided the patrolling sailors and quietly came to the deck. The salty sea breeze carried a biting chill, the Tide slammed against the hull. The originally blue sky had been swallowed up by lead-gray clouds, and the wind and rain dropped. "Hey! What are you doing there!" Finally a sailor found the girl. He shouted, trying to attract attention, "The storm is coming soon, you should listen to the advice and stay in the room!" Stay in the room? Li Wen shook his head, walked under the mast, and took out Crow Feather Dagger. If she stayed in the room, who would solve this farce? The next moment, she stabbed the dagger into the mast, followed by huge waves carrying wind and rain, swallowing her up. Chapter 190 Encounter with Li Wen was completely enveloped by this sudden feeling of suffocation and coldness, as if the whole world had turned into cold sea water, trying to swallow her completely. The fear of the unknown began to take root uncontrollably, until it grew stronger. Just when her consciousness was about to dissipate, those desperate feelings receded like a tide at a certain moment. When she opened her eyes again, she found that she was miraculously standing on the deck, soaked to the skin, and her breath was salty and cold, but she could no longer leave any fear on her body. The surroundings were shrouded in a deep darkness, and the ocean seemed to have lost its life. It was so silent that even the smallest sound of waves could not be heard. Li Wen looked down and saw that the ship under his feet was no longer the sturdy Adventurer, but a dilapidated and abandoned ship that was half submerged in the water. The mast is crumbling, and if you examine it carefully, you will find that there is a damaged black flag hanging on it, fluttering feebly in the wind. The pattern is blurry and weird, and there is an indescribable gloominess. Li Wen was unmoved, and she took out a candle from her pocket. This thing could be used as a material for casting spells, and could also be used for part of Radiance's rituals, so she was always well prepared. The moment the candle Ignite was lit, the soft and warm light bloomed in the darkness, dispelling the coldness around it, but it seemed unable to dispel the weirdness and uncertainty in the depths of the sea. She looked around, trying to find any trace of Two-tailed Mermaid. The interior of the ship was in a mess, with various broken items scattered around, some of which had the salty smell of sea water, as if they had just been salvaged from the bottom of the sea. After thinking for a moment, Li Wen stepped into the cabin. The moment she stepped into the cabin, a smell of decay and moisture hit her face, as if she had entered another time and space for a moment. This half-sunken broken ship may seem small on the outside, but there is a cave inside. The space is extremely large due to the distortion of unknown forces. Looking at it, you can see countless rooms densely packed together, spliced together to form an intricate three-dimensional structure like a maze. Li Wen was secretly wary. This was undoubtedly the work of Two-tailed Mermaid. It didn't seem to want to confront her head-on, but was trying to consume her patience and physical strength in this way. "Like playing hide and seek?" Li Wen tilted his head, a coldness flashing in his eyes. She has always hated this kind of time-wasting method, but after all, this is the space controlled by Two-tailed Mermaid, and it is not up to her to decide what to do. So, holding the candle, she began to search each room one by one. This is not only looking for the Two-tailed Mermaid statue, but also trying to find those missing people - if they have not become Two-tailed Mermaid's food rations. Most of these rooms are empty, or are scattered with some moldy and worn-out furniture, ship supplies and sundries. Not to mention living things, there are not even corpses. The room is connected to other rooms, seemingly endless. It is undoubtedly a waste of time to continue searching like this. There are too many rooms here and the structure is too complicated. Finding something valuable is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Li Wen's heart moved. She closed her eyes and prayed. When the last byte came out of her mouth, a dark candle that had been Ignite but had no flames floated in front of the girl. After that, deep darkness descended again, and all light sources were eaten away by the dark and dim candle. But in this almost absolute darkness, Li Wen can actually see things in the darkness clearly. Although not as clear as during the day, it is enough for fighting. Level 1 Candle of Darkness can only last for 1 minute. During the duration, it will cause damage to enemies within a radius of 15 meters every three seconds, which means it can cause a total of 20 damage. A full spherical range of fifteen meters with a radius of 20 times is enough for Li Wen to detect whether there is anyone in the entire maze - as long as she regards all moving things as enemies, then when the opponent is burned by Candle of Darkness, there will always be movement, right? Although in the skill description, Candle of Darkness causes damage to enemies within the "candlelight" range, the candlelight of Candle of Darkness brings darkness instead of light. Darkness cannot be blocked by anything, except light. An invisible ripple spread outward from the candle. After confirming that there was no feedback, Li Wen turned on Witch State and immediately flew to another place about thirty meters away. With this method, it won't be long before she can explore the entire maze, as long as these rooms are not endless. Luck seemed to be on her side. Before Li Wen tried a few times, she felt the feedback of Candle of Darkness hitting the target. Li Wen Cancel Witch State, reverse direction and walk towards the room with feedback. Li Wen Pushed open the door, and the cold breath mixed with putrid smell hit his face, bringing a biting chill. She glanced around and saw a group of wet creatures with distorted faces not far away, besieging several young people. Those creatures were bloated, their skin was an unnatural bluish-white color, and their eyes were hollow and lifeless, but they revealed a heart-stopping madness - this was Drowned Corpse, the product of Demonic Beast being influenced by some kind of Demonic Beast on the corpse after a person drowned. Drowned Corpse Although not as strong and durable as living zombies, their attacks are more crazy and unorganized. For ordinary people, they are simply a nightmare. Those young men were obviously not extraordinary people. Faced with the siege of Drowned Corpse, although they resisted desperately, they soon showed signs of being unable to do what they wanted. It was only a matter of time before they retreated. Li Wen frowned slightly. She did not hesitate, and immediately raised the dark candle in her hand. Candle of Darkness's light bloomed quietly in the darkness. It was not a warm and bright light, but a deep and dark darkness that seemed to be able to swallow up all light. She set her Candle of Darkness targets firmly on those Drowned Corpse. Three seconds later, an invisible ripple spread rapidly with the candle as the center. Wherever it passed, the Drowned Corpses let out harsh and terrifying roars, and their bodies seemed to be invisible.
