Li Wen followed Fu Qingyan and others through the maze-like room. She found that Fu Qingyan was leading the way in several specific directions without thinking or hesitating, as if she had already drawn a road map in her mind, and she could reach her destination by just following the map step by step.
Noticing her gaze, Fu Qingyan smiled softly and raised the silver pendant in his hand.
"This magic item can anchor a person's aura, and then accurately pinpoint that person's location within a range of no more than 300 meters, and guide me to find the person."
Fu Qingyan is not worried that this will arouse Li Wen's interest. After all, the guide pendant is just an ordinary magic item. It has no other effect except for tracking, and the effective distance is too short. Even if it is hung on the game market and exchanged for real money, it will only sell for two to three hundred at most.
With Li Wen's ability to wipe out the Drowned Corpse group in an instant, he wouldn't be interested in such a gadget even if he thought about it. If you really like him, that would be even better, it can be used as a favor.
Of course, Li Wen was not able to pick off her classmates. She was just puzzled that Fu Qingyan was obviously not even a transcendent, but he could get such a thing. But soon she figured it out. Fu Qingyan probably bought it from another player. In her impression, the other player's real family background seemed to be very well-off.
"Almost there."
Fu Qingyan said suddenly.
They walked into the last door, only to find that they had already arrived outside the cabin.
Sky Dome is still so dim, but the difference is that the sea is no longer calm, the storm is roaring with thunder, the wind is howling, and the waves are turbulent, as if the whole world has become manic and restless at this moment.
With the flash of light brought by lightning, Li Wen was finally able to see clearly this lightless sea.
The surrounding sea is like a dead cemetery, with countless broken ships scattered everywhere, being beaten mercilessly by the turbulent waves, making a dull and desperate sound. In this sea area and the center of the storm, a tall and ferocious statue of Two-tailed Mermaid stands on the rocks. Its cold gaze seems to penetrate everything and pierce people's hearts.
A fragile and helpless wooden boat rode on the wind and waves towards the location of the mermaid statue. It struggled forward in the storm, and every wave hit it as if it was going to be torn into pieces. However, the crazy old sailor on the boat seemed unaware of it. His naked upper body muscles were knotted and intertwined with scars, which were witnesses of his struggle with the sea and fate. He held a huge whale-hunting harpoon tightly in his hand, and the fire of hatred burned in his pupils, which was the endless resentment and desire for revenge against Two-tailed Mermaid.
"Two-tailed Mermaid! I'm back to take revenge on you!" Old Joey's roar echoed in the sea breeze, and the voice was full of determination and madness. His ship was like a small boat, swaying in the huge waves, but still moving unswervingly in the direction of the statue.
As Old Joey roared, a dazzling lightning suddenly flashed across the sky. Immediately afterwards, countless human-like but terrifying mermaids Demonic Beast emerged from the sea. Their bodies shone with an icy sheen, and their sharp claws looked particularly terrifying in the sunlight. These Demonic Beast made a piercing scream and surged towards Old Joey's wooden boat, seeming to tear him into pieces.
Old Joey didn't flinch at all. He waved the long fork in his hand, and every swing was precise and powerful. The long fork pierced the air, bringing up strings of blood flowers, and each Two-tailed Mermaid wailed and fell into the sea under his attack. However, there are too many mermaids, and they come one after another, seemingly endless. Old Joey's body was soon covered with scars, and the light blue blood mixed with the sea water, dyeing the entire wooden boat an ink color.
Hatred and madness drive Old Joey, he seems to be tireless, and every swing contains the determination to die. After all, the mermaids are Demonic Beast in a swarm. They have sharp claws, solid muscles and scales. Although Old Joey is brave, they are ultimately unable to defeat four hands with one fist. As the battle continued, his physical strength was gradually exhausted. Whenever Old Joey killed a mermaid Demonic Beast, a deep or shallow wound would be left on his body, and the number of wounds on his body would increase.
Li Wen's gaze crossed the group of Old Joey and Demonic Beast and was firmly locked on the tall, cold statue. However, the statue that was supposed to be a dead thing also stiffly turned its pupils to look at her.
"You stay here."
Li Wen said to Fu Qingyan and others behind him, and then activated the dormant dusk power in his body, entering Witch State. She stepped lightly on the edge of the boat and flew into the air amidst everyone's exclamations.
Two-tailed Mermaid would not let her get close so easily. He raised his hand to stir up a huge wave and wanted to swat the nasty flying insect down, but Li Wen dodged it nimbly.
With the advantage of flying, Li Wen was extremely close to the statue. Two-tailed Mermaid was both angry and frightened. It made the storm more violent, forcing Li Wen to fly close to the sea surface, and then commanded all the mermaids Demonic Beast to surround it and attack it.
Li Wen quickly chanted the spell and summoned Candle of Darkness. The invisible power spread, Ignite surrounded all the besieging mermaids Demonic Beast.
But there were too many mermaids, and it was too slow for Candle of Darkness to get injured. Li Wen had to take out Crow Feather Dagger to cut off the claws extending towards her, making it difficult to move even half a step forward.
On the other side, Two-tailed Mermaid obviously did not intend to let Fu Qingyan and others go. Before they could watch the show for a long time, countless Drowned Corpse and dead bodies climbed out of the deep sea, boarded the ship, or swarmed out of the cabin.
"Get back on the deck!"
Fu Qingyan gave orders decisively, trying to deal with these monsters as much as possible.
All the mermaids Demonic Beast ran to stop Li Wen, but Old Joey was free of obstruction. His wooden boat sailed through the storm and reached the reef where the Two-tailed Mermaid statue was located.
Old Joey used the whale hunting spear to climb up the reef with difficulty. He was breathing heavily and his eyes were bloodshot.
Only ten steps away from him, the statue of Two-tailed Mermaid stood there, almost within reach. But at this time, Old Joey calmed down. All the sounds in his ears, including the roar of the wind and rain, the sweep of the Tide, and the sounds of fighting, gradually left him.
Unprecedented tranquility quietly fell around him. Old Joey stared blankly at the statue and murmured softly, "Ah, finally... I finally get you again."
In his eyes, the statue looked like a ferocious and terrifying Demonic Beast at one moment, and a beautiful and pitiful girl at the other. I don't know when the gentle and intimate songs began to ring in my ears, which reminded Old Joey of his childhood, when his mother held him in her arms and sang soft lullabies. It was a time that made people particularly nostalgic and attached, just like now.
The statue's appearance ultimately remained that of a beautiful girl.
The next moment, the dream was shattered, and the cold rain brought him back to reality.
What's wrong with me?
Severe pain began to spread from his chest to his whole body, and warm liquid flowed everywhere, dyeing the rocks under his feet red. It wasn't until this moment that Old Joey realized that he was pierced through the chest by his own long fork and nailed to the rock. The person who did all this happened to be himself, or in other words, he was influenced by Two-tailed Mermaid.
In a trance, Old Joey seemed to be back on the ship. He killed his companions one by one amid their roars and wails of confusion, anger and begging for mercy, and dedicated their flesh and blood to the statue of Two-tailed Mermaid.
And the statue was looking at him now, with that cold, sticky, malicious and teasing gaze, as if it were looking at an insect that didn't know how to live or die, or a toy?
No, it's not over yet...
Old Joey tremblingly reached into his arms. From this distance, as long as he could recite the incantation, everything would be over. As long as he took out the most important thing in his life.
But what about the logbook? He obviously carries it with him.
He looked at Two-tailed Mermaid's terrifying face with almost despair, and suddenly understood that everything was under its control.
