Li Wen and Moria did not delay at all. After leaving Sycamore Inn, they went straight to the port area. During the day, the streets of Port Belen were filled with the salty sea breeze, the shouts of sailors and the collision of cargo. At this moment, the changes in the shipyard made it even more restless. They walked through the slightly chaotic crowd, their steps swift and silent.

However, as they approached a remote alley outside the dock that was filled with discarded cables and barrels, a sudden change occurred.

"Seize them! They are enemies of the Church!"

Along with a hoarse cry, seven or eight figures in gray robes suddenly jumped out from the shadows on both sides. Their faces were full of enthusiasm and terminal ferocity. They had various weapons in their hands, including rusty harpoons, crude scimitars and even broken wooden sticks. They all greeted Li Wen and Moria.

"I don't know whether to live or die." Li Wen's eyes were cold and his movements were as fast as a ghost.

No need for verbal communication, while she sideways avoided a sweeping blow, Moria was already like a calm wind, bullying the attacker at the front. His movements were extremely concise. He raised his hand and pressed, and the person felt as if he was hit by an invisible heavy hammer in the chest. He flew backwards with a muffled groan and hit the slippery wall without making a sound.

Li Wen's Crow Feather Dagger flipped between his fingers, drawing a cold arc, accurately cutting off the wooden handles of the two harpoons, and kicked the other person's knee. Amidst the crisp sound of bone cracking, the person screamed and fell to his knees. She didn't even look back, and threw the dagger with her backhand. In a flash of cold light, a believer who rushed from the blind corner behind Moria was nailed through the shoulder and nailed to the wooden box with a scream.

Moria's movements were also smooth and smooth. He avoided a scimitar and tapped the opponent's wrist with his fingers. The person's wrist dropped limply and the weapon was released. Then he turned around and struck with an elbow, and another believer who tried to sneak attack was severely knocked away.

The battle was over in a few breaths, and the remnants of Cult of Eternal Life, who were unable to move, were lying on the ground, groaning and crying out in pain. Li Wen pulled out the dagger and shook off the blood without even looking at the person on the ground.

"Let's go." After saying this, she looked back at these fanatic believers, thinking that these guys must be the believers who saw her fly away from the church last night, otherwise there would be no reason to recognize her.

Moria nodded slightly, and the two of them crossed the obstacle without stopping and continued running towards the berth where the Adventurer was parked.

When they arrived, the Adventurer was lying quietly on the dock like a resting beast. On the deck, Fu Qingyan and her companions were talking to Captain Remington, with excitement and a little nervousness about the upcoming departure on their faces.

"Captain Remington." Moria's voice sounded at the right time, interrupting their conversation.

Everyone followed the sound and saw Li Wen and Moria walking quickly. The captain raised his eyebrows. Of course, he couldn't forget these two unusual passengers on the Adventurer.

"Miss Mephisto? Pastor Moria? What a rare visitor." A smile appeared on Remington's rough face, and his eyes swept over the dust on their robes and the undried blood on Li Wen's daggers. "It seems that the sea breeze in Port Belen is not very gentle. What, have you finished your work?"

"It's over for now." Li Wen walked closer and got straight to the point, "Captain, we want to take your boat to Black Reef Bay."

As soon as these words came out, Fu Qingyan and her classmates were stunned for a moment. The smile on Remington's face also faded a bit. He crossed his arms and examined Li Wen: "Oh? Miss Mephisto is also interested in that cursed sea area? I remember that your previous purpose was to find a fortune teller in Port Belen."

"The plan cannot keep up with the changes." Li Wen's voice was calm. "The people of Eternal Life Blessing Cult have already taken the boat out to sea first, and their goal is also Sunken Horn. We need to keep up with them."

"Cult of Eternal Life?" Remington's eyes narrowed. As an experienced captain, he has naturally heard of this very intimidating church in Port Belen. "Where are those madmen also targeting?"

"Yes." Moria answered with a calm tone, "The situation is urgent. We believe that only your Adventurer can track them in the shortest time and safely cross the dangerous waters of Black Reef Bay."

Remington was silent for a moment, his fingers unconsciously touching the saber on his waist. Moria was introduced by Selwyn, who also saved his life from Joseph. He had no reason to refuse. His eyes swept between teams Li Wen, Moria and Fu Qingyan, and finally landed on Fu Qingyan.

"Little girl, what do you say? You may not know that Eternal Life Blessing Cult is a notorious local sect. Their methods are cruel and evil. If you have a conflict with them, there will probably be no good ending." Remington asked.

Fu Qingyan said without any hesitation, "We want to go with Mr. Miss Mephisto and Moria!"

The friends around her also nodded. Li Wen's performance on the Adventurer impressed them deeply, especially the fact that she saved them, and Moria made these inexperienced players shout invincible.

Remington grinned, showing his white teeth. "Okay! Since you don't have any objections, then I have no reason to be afraid."

"But..." His expression became serious, and he glanced at everyone sharply, "When you get on my ship, you must follow my rules. Black Reef Bay is not a place for fun. Storms, reefs, Sea Monster, and those crazy people who don't know what they say... Every step may be fatal. During the voyage, all actions are under my command, and no one is allowed to act without authorization. Otherwise, don't blame me for throwing him into the sea to feed the fish! Do you understand?"

"Understood!" Team Fu Qingyan responded in unison, with the excitement of young people.

Li Wen nodded slightly. "Naturally."

Moria also said in a deep voice, "I will follow your arrangements, Captain."

"Very good!" Remington patted the side of the ship with satisfaction, "Are the supplies almost ready? Girl, are you all here?"

Fu Qingyan nodded and glanced at his teammates. "Everyone is here, except..."

After she hesitated for a moment, she saw Yang Yi running hurriedly in the distance.

The other party ran to the bridge panting, with a trace of panic and imperceptible paleness on his face. He lowered his head, avoiding everyone's eyes, and explained in a low voice, "Huh, sorry, I ran into some trouble on the way and was delayed."

Fu Qingyan blinked, said nothing more, and waved. "Come up quickly, I'm waiting for you."

Yang Yi climbed onto the deck and huddled behind the crowd.

Li Wen glanced at the other party for a moment, and his eyes under the hood moved slightly.

Remington waved his hand and held up Sea Chart: "Now that everyone is here, prepare to lift anchor. Target Black Reef Bay and intercept them before those madmen! Brothers, get to work!"

The sailors responded loudly and acted quickly. The thick cables were untied, and the brand new sail slowly rose on the mainmast, making a dull sound.

Under the command of Remington, the Adventurer split open the blue water, and with a ship full of people with different thoughts but the same goal, sailed towards the dangerous sea area called "Black Reef Bay" and "Sunken Horn", directly following the track of Eternal Life Blessing Cult.
