Outside the cabin door, others are still waiting anxiously.
They only saw the light of the lantern penetrate deep into the corridor, and soon lost the trace. It was unclear what the situation of Victor and the agent was now.
But not long after, the lantern appeared in people's sight again, like a firefly swaying in the darkness.
The sound of running footsteps was rapid, and Josh and others immediately realized that the two people inside were running for their lives.
"Guys! Go and respond quickly!"
The agents of the Inspection Bureau drew their guns one after another.
They only saw the outlines of the two people gradually becoming clearer in the deep passage, and with it, the inexplicable thick fog gradually rising behind them.
The mist stirs, and some kind of weird limb hides in it, chasing the runners ahead.
"Shoot!!" Victor looked at the moonlight on the cabin door and shouted at the top of his lungs.
Then there was a series of gunshots, fired at the things chasing behind them.
A strange whine appeared with the explosion of gunpowder, and was clearly transmitted to everyone's eardrums. It was like thunder, shocking everyone at the hatch.
"What the hell is that?!" Thomas was so frightened by this scene that he took two steps back.
Victor ran away frantically. Although he had a gun in his hand, he knew that it was useless against the monsters behind him.
But the agent with the lantern had the idea of counterattack at an untimely moment. He used a small revolver to shoot at the strange tentacles that appeared in the thick fog behind him.
Bang bang!
The gunshot was powerless, but just because of this delay, the tentacle pierced his stomach and dragged him into the thick fog.
Victor had no chance to save him, so he could only ignore it and rushed out of the hatch, knocking over several people.
Seeing that the thick fog was about to pour out, Chief Inspector Josh ordered everyone to retreat. It was not until they retreated to the deck that they discovered that the thick fog was filling the cabin door and had not spread out.
"Can't get out?"
Victor gasped, recalling the situation he encountered in the forest.
The two strange creatures couldn't get out of the foggy forest, as if they were restricted by something.
"Secret..." Chief Inspector Josh's knowledge is obviously better than that of Victor and others. In his position, he must have learned a lot of relevant information.
"That thing didn't crawl out...it scared me to death..." Thomas got up from the ground and fell when he retreated to the deck. "Why is there such a ghost thing on my boat?"
"Don't get close to the engine room. We are not in danger for the time being..." Chief Inspector Josh's face was quite solemn, "Father Sang is not here at the critical moment. Damn it."
"Chief Inspector, what is that?" Weeden put his gun in his holster and asked breathlessly.
"It should be a secret creature. Someone has tampered with the engine room. I think the chief engineer and first engineer are all dead, or the strange thing is what they look like after being obsessed." Josh told everyone seriously.
People.
"What do you mean? That monster is the chief engineer?" Thomas obviously didn't understand.
Josh was just explaining to his subordinates: "The white mist actually restrained it. The mist couldn't disperse, so the strange thing was trapped below. I guess the guy with hands and feet marked the range."<
/p>
"It's a pity that Father Sang is not here. Their seers in the Bright Light Realm are best at dealing with this kind of thing..."
The chief inspector looked ugly, and he was probably complaining about that damn old pervert.
People are more afraid of the unknown than specific monsters. His explanation really made everyone less frightened.
"Now the boat is floating on the lake with no power. This may be the other party's plan. He hopes that we will either be killed by monsters or burn ourselves one by one." Victor handed the gun to an agent of the Intelligence Bureau and gasped.
He said angrily, "We should find a way to leave the Kaleidoscope."
Speaking of this, Thomas suddenly remembered that he had just sent someone to find his son, but the man had not come back after such a long time.
Could it be that... he died in the previous self-immolation?
Thomas looked panicked, and he hurriedly said to Josh: "Chief Inspector, I have to go back to find Kandy."
Kandi is his son's name.
No matter what Josh arranged, Thomas walked towards the casino on his own.
The others followed for the time being. When they arrived at the casino, they found that there was no one staying inside. The gamblers had already ran to the deck and verandah, and some were fighting for lifeboats, fighting with Thomas' subordinates.
There are agents from the Inspection Bureau confronting you.
The card table was tilted here and there, a bunch of chairs were smashed, and card chips and cash plates were scattered everywhere.
Thomas couldn't find anyone for a while, and when he was in a hurry, the door on the other side opened, and Henry and the pony-tailed waiter suddenly appeared at the door.
"Henry? Are you still alive?" Other agents from the Intelligence Bureau quickly waved to him.
Just now, Henry witnessed the self-immolation of two passers-by. He already knew what was happening on the ship, and his face was very pale.
"You're here just in time! Come here!" Thomas called the waiter over, "Go to my room to find Kandi. He should be still there. You must find him for me!"
"Maybe he has been burned to death, Mr. Thomas..." The waiter expressed his guess normally, but was punched in the face by Thomas.
"I say it again! You must bring Kandy to me!"
Faced with the angry boss's roar, the waiter left the casino feeling aggrieved.
"Mr. Chief Inspector, do you understand the current situation?" Henry asked Josh worriedly.
Josh informed him of the previous accident outside the engine room, and then speculated: "This ship is a trap, and someone wants to catch us all."
"Then why didn't he choose to attack directly?" Henry raised his doubts, "Why did he self-immolate? Is it some kind of invisible technique? Wouldn't it be better to burn us all in one go?"
"There is a pattern..." Seeing Henry coming, Victor started talking more. "It happens about every ten minutes. There were a lot of people at the beginning. In the first wave, dozens of people self-immolated. After that, the number in each wave was around
Gradually less and less. If a seer is performing invisible magic, is he enjoying the despair we feel before we die?"
"Victor! Where is my Jennifer?!" Thomas yelled next to him.
Victor was startled by this sudden shout.
"What? Mrs. Jennifer? Sorry, haven't I been with you all the time? Why did you ask me where Mrs. Jennifer is?"
"She invited you to come over after the dinner, you should know..."
Hearing this, Victor's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Good guy...when did he find out?
And even if you don’t point it out after you find it, what kind of bad water is hidden in the gourd?
Could it be that you are planning to keep it and use it as a handle to deceive me in the future?
After winking, Victor glanced at Henry's face.
The latter leaned into his ear and whispered about the situation in room 404.
"Mrs. Jennifer is missing?" Victor asked Henry in a low voice with a confused face, "When did it happen? Did she also set herself on fire?"
Henry shook his head: "Probably not, there was no ashes in the room, and before I saw her, I heard the voices of other men in her room."
