butterfly effect.
Because of the appearance of Caroso, Merlin and Blank are not so familiar.
Especially Bai, who had been running around with Caroso before.
Under this situation, Kong Guangguang was only thinking about the matter between Bai and Caroso, and did not discuss the cooperation with Merlin in depth.
Sophia did not go berserk in Free City, and Sora and Shiro were not particularly interested in Sophia.
Moreover, in the dream space, Bai went to help Caroso, not Sophia.
Bai is a relatively emotional person. When he sees Sophia's past, even if he forgets it after waking up from the dream, he will plant a seed in his heart and want to help Sophia.
However, all this did not happen. Sophia did not lose his best friend and did not go berserk. As a result, Blank did not come to the ship at this time.
Caroso originally thought Isli had done something. After all, it was a coincidence that something happened to him just after he left.
But judging from what Netizens said, this incident was not caused by Isli.
Click, click, click...
Many people rushed onto the deck and looked around.
Caroso's eyes were focused on the sea.
I saw broken wooden boards appearing around the ship, and there were some corpses on some boards.
Wooden ships have not been completely eliminated yet, but there should be no other ships on this route!
Moreover, why does the surrounding environment look weird?
"What's going on?" Saya ran to Caroso decisively and looked at the sea. "The color of the sea water is a little wrong..."
"Well, it doesn't look like the color of the normal sea." Caroso nodded solemnly.
[Boss Caro, be careful, this is not your sea area, new information has come out, this is the edge of Sea of Taboo]
[Yes, everyone's Mana will be suppressed here, and the other side is coming for Sophia]
[The protagonists of this incident are Elizabeth and Russell. They will work with Merlin Celica to solve the problem]
[Don't count on others]
[I don't know the specifics, the event has just started, it will take at least a few hours to get through, so hold on!]
[In CG, Blank used the materials here to print the card for Merlin on the spot. It was so cool]
[Nima, Blank is not here at this time!]
[That card should be the key to clearing the level. Where can Blank and Merlin not fight with new cards?]
[Isn't this equivalent to cutting off one of old woman's hands?]
"Sea of Taboo?" Caroso's eyes widened. "Is this Sea of Taboo?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Our route has nothing to do with Sea of Taboo." Saya's pupils narrowed.
If it were in Sea of Taboo, that would be a big deal!
I've never heard of anyone getting out of Sea of Taboo alive, never!
Sea of Taboo, this is Land of Fallen Gods. Countless divine battles started at Sea of Taboo.
If Caroso had the memory of communicating with Surtur, he would really know a lot of things. He had witnessed the fall of the gods.
"Sea of Taboo Edge..." Caroso swallowed. "I'm not sure, I just saw it in the records."
"If it were really there, anything could happen now."
"Second brother, no matter what kind of conflicts the two of us have, I suggest that we call a truce now."
"Okay." Saya saw Caroso so solemn and understood the importance of the matter.
Whether it is to kill Caroso or to make Caroso feel despair, there is a prerequisite: he himself has to survive.
Soon, many people came to the deck and looked outside.
"What happened?"
"It's such a heavy fog..."
"There are corpses at sea, and any ships have been attacked?"
"Who did it!"
"We won't be attacked too, right?"
"Isn't this route cleaned regularly? This is the safest route!"
"Damn it, why is my magic so close?"
"It can't exert its power at all."
"Communications have been cut off. There is no way to communicate with the outside world, or even with the people in this ship!"
"It's completely cut off. What kind of magic circle is this?"
"Where's the captain, captain!"
"Could we be being plotted?"
"Damn it, the ship departed from the port of Free City. Are they the remnants of Church of the Lord of Eternal Life who want to use us for rituals?"
"It's very possible!"
"Damn it, so many masters are still afraid of this? Let's fight out!"
The crowd present was furious and felt that they had been tricked.
Free City has just had an accident and is now more sensitive.
Just like where a fire breaks out, if more people know about it, they will automatically increase their awareness of prevention.
"Everyone, calm down! I am the owner of this ship and the owner of Deep Sea Industry, Russell·Heikmedia!"
At this moment, a lazy male voice sounded from high on the ship.
Caroso turned around suddenly.
I saw Russell sitting on the top of the boat, with his strange-looking crutch in his hand, and a sword that belonged to him hidden inside.
"This guy..."
Caroso covered his forehead.
Being set up...
I just communicated with Russell, which gave Caroso the illusion that Russell was walking this way from another place.
The problem is, Russell is a daughter slave, and his own daughter appeared on this ship. It is indeed possible for him to follow him.
He was just afraid of scaring his daughter away, so he never showed up and hid instead.
"Who is that?"
"Captain?"
"The Mana wave is so strong... it's still so strong even though it's restricted. Is it Tier 8?"
"That is Russell, the owner of this ship, and also the owner of Deep Sea Industry, the most powerful arms dealer."
"Russell, what do you mean, what's going on?"
When a group of people saw Russell appear, they all stepped on the hull to the top of the ship, and even Caroso and Saya rushed up.
"We got on the ship because we believed Deep Sea Industry. We must give us an explanation for this matter." A middle-aged man stood up and said, "If something happens to my master, you Deep Sea Industry can't afford it!"
"That's right, you have to give us an explanation as to what the heavy fog and the Mana factor are."
"Tie him up and force him to tell him."
"Tell me, are you contaminated by Church of the Lord of Eternal Life?"
"Everyone, I don't know what is going on. What exactly happened needs to be investigated." Russell looked around and said calmly, "Please go back to the cabin to rest first. We at Deep Sea Industry will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to this matter."
"No matter what happens, I am here myself. If something happens, it won't be too late for you to kill me, right?"
"I know, I'm not the only one present Tier 8. But if you are so excited and insist on having a fight with me... then I don't care, but this will give an advantage to the unknown enemy!"
"I also contributed a lot to the battle against Church of the Lord of Eternal Life before. I believe that as long as you see Free City's newspaper, you will know my position Russell."
"I suspect that maybe I took action against Church of the Lord of Eternal Life before, causing Church of the Lord of Eternal Life to retaliate against me."
"Our enemy is probably on this ship, hiding among us, and wants to take advantage of the conflict between you and me to achieve his goals."
"Do you have any basis for saying this?" an old man frowned.
"There is no basis, so I need to investigate, and I ask you all to give me some time. Moreover, the more chaotic it is, the easier it is for things to happen." Russell looked around. "The people on the ship, especially those in the first class, are all big shots, either rich or noble, and they are all existences that I, Russell, need to look up to. However, the relationship between you may not be so harmonious. Some families have long-standing grudges, right?"
"There are also conflicts between some countries and other countries, right?"
"With so many masters surrounding you, are you really not afraid that something will happen to your master?"
"Do something while the chaos is happening. Now is the best time."
The expressions of many people present changed. It was obvious that Russell had hit the point.
Russell has been dividing the people in front of him from the beginning, making it impossible for them to unite as one.
Otherwise, if they team up to deal with Russell, it will really be a headache for Russell.
He expressed his position, elaborated his reasoning, demonstrated his strength, and differentiated himself, just to make these people obedient and not cause any trouble for him.
"Humph, you'd better give us a satisfactory answer."
"Yes, if we don't find out the truth, or if we find something, don't blame us for being rude."
Everyone said some harsh words and really left here temporarily.
The only ones left are Caroso and Saya.
"Kid, don't you want an explanation?" Russell stood in front of Caroso and raised his eyebrows.
"No, I'm here to help. I've seen this sea area in records, and it's very similar to the Sea of Taboo edge in the records." Caroso said.
Russell stared hard, picked up Caroso's collar, and said fiercely, "Kid, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Look at the wooden boards and corpses floating on the sea, and the clothes on those corpses, are they from this era?" Caroso pointed to the sea.
Russell looked around and quickly noticed something was wrong.
Those people looked like they had just died, and their clothes seemed to be from this era, but some subtle differences could still be seen.
With Russell's strength, he couldn't hide it from his eyes even from such a distance.
He let go of Caroso, his face turned a little pale.
"Kid, it seems that your knowledge is very profound... even I have never seen such records."
Russell makes a living at sea, and he has never seen it, so this knowledge is too unpopular.
However, each major family has its own unique collection of books, and Russell did not question Caroso.
Caroso would not joke about such a big thing.
"Why is our ship here?" Saya asked.
"Is this... your friend or follower?" Russell pointed at Saya.
"I am his second brother, Saya·Kolia!" Saya became popular when he heard Russell say this.
Damn it, do you think I look like a follower?
"Look at the clothes you're wearing." Russell curled his lips.
Saya looked down and his face turned pale.
I saw that his clothes had changed into a somewhat shabby butler's outfit, and his long black clothes gave people a depressing feeling.
Caroso turned his head and glanced, his eyes focused.
Saya's clothes... when did they change?
[Hey, it's a bit weird!]
[Just a moment]
[Yes, Boss Luo just finished speaking, his clothes changed instantly]
[Damn, if I didn't know that Boss Luo is a good person, I would have thought that Boss Luo was the BOSS]
[Where is the plot party? Hurry up!]
[Oops, the plot is already running at 16x speed, why is this rubbish activity so difficult?]
[The difficulty level is okay, I just rely on training to get an A]
[The entire Tier 9 luxury lineup, as long as it's not the BOSS, it can't stop me]
[I have to watch the plot slowly, and I can't reveal the details. At 16x speed, are you sure it's useful to speed through the plot?]
[Didn't you read the post on the forum? The story team and the strategy team have joined forces. The story team is using the strategy team's account and play style, and then watches the story in groups]
[For example, if you are in one group, then you should watch the first level plot carefully. If you are in the second group, go through the first level plot sixteen times faster and mainly watch the second level plot]
[Fuck, can it still be like this?]
[It's really organized and disciplined]
Even if the game company cheats, or Caroso has bad luck, it can't stop the players' enthusiasm.
When players want to do something, they can overcome any difficulties.
Activity card drawing? It is no longer important to people watching Caroso.
[Boss Caro, it is recommended to turn on the simplified barrage mode, and the story team who will speak later will help you analyze it]
Caroso pressed it smoothly, and then looked at Russell.
"Boss Luo... No, Russell." Russell accidentally shouted like Netizens: "When did you see his clothes become like this?"
"In my eyes, it was like this from the beginning." Russell also realized something was wrong.
"In my eyes, his clothes changed just now. I had been paying attention to him out of the corner of my eye before." Caroso said.
"Didn't you fucking say a truce? Are you so defensive about me?" Saya was stunned for a moment and said with a speechless expression.
"What's the card in your hand?" Caroso's eyes were on the card in Saya's hand.
Saya silently put away the Frost Arrow: "What about your hand?"
Caroso silently put away his five-star gold card weapon...
Well, even if the two of them make a truce, their defense against each other will not drop.
"Huh... his clothes have changed, and maybe other people's clothes have also changed. As for why they have changed, I don't know." Russell said with a solemn look on his face, "I found out before you, maybe that's why I'm better than you."
Caroso nodded, this was the only explanation.
"I once read a report, which has always been regarded as a myth." Russell looked into the distance. "A ship suddenly disappeared while traveling and reappeared a hundred years later."
"When the ship reappeared, the people from a hundred years ago were alive and well, and their age had not changed. It was as if they had traveled through time. For them, only a few hours had passed."
"That route is also a normal route, not Sea of Taboo."
"Damn, it would be so much fun if that were the case."
Caroso looked solemn.
Although I don't know what happened, the problem that requires so many experts to solve is definitely not a small one.
"Little one, go back to the cabin and leave the rest to the adults."
