If the leader is killed or controlled, the rest will become intimidated. That's what happens to a rabble.
Not to mention, most of the passengers on the ship were not disturbed. They just wanted an answer and inner peace, and did not want to continue to be trapped in fear.
The wounded were sent to the infirmary, the ship's doctor began to be busy, and the situation gradually calmed down. During this process, Victor still did not look back.
The situation underwater is quite complicated. Even though Xiao Hei had sharp claws, it took him a long time to get in.
When Victor saw the barnacles covering the dark wooden hull, he seemed to smell an unusually unpleasant smell of decay.
Wrapped in tangled roots, there is a wooden sailboat of unknown age inside. The hull is so large that it can fit tightly under the Northern Faith cruise ship and drag it along.
Perhaps, there was such a large ship in history, but it disappeared during the voyage for unknown reasons.
However, Victor was not here for archeology. He found a hole in the hull of the ship and let Xiao Hei swim inside wrapped in the secret magic crystal.
This old wooden ship is very large, and a fire spell is far from enough to destroy it.
Fortunately, the seawater is already filled with green flammable substances. As long as they are ignited, everything around the deep diver can be set ablaze.
If something is controlling this ship, it will definitely find a way to escape from the Northern Faith, and then the cruise ship will be able to leave safely.
"I hope the hull of the Northern Faith is hard enough..."
Victor muttered to himself, and he didn't even notice that there was a fierce gun battle behind him.
Xiao Hei turned into a squid covered in scales and shuttled around the deep diver's hull, looking for the best place to detonate.
Its eight legs swayed, bringing in the green flammable material.
Victor looked carefully and suddenly noticed something swimming in front of him.
Like a school of fish, very long and thin, one by one, in groups.
But the way they swim is different from that of schools of fish.
Blackie immediately became alert, and Victor knew it must have sensed something.
Suddenly, the squid's eight legs sprouted sharp knives and stirred forward.
The devil could hear some strange noises, and then flesh and blood flew in front of him, and some severed sea cucumber-like things squirmed in the water.
There was one crawling on Xiao Hei's body. It immediately retreated nervously, and then quickly swam upward.
Under the dark cabin, there were swarms of "sea cucumbers" as big as a thumb everywhere.
Even if Victor's real body wasn't underneath, he was still so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Those things can't be the painted skins of the abyss, right? Even the wriggling protoplasm has been scared away..."
The demon puppet, which had been motionless, raised its palm, followed Victor's hand, and traced a water spell on Xiao Hei's body.
Suddenly, the little black figure disappeared for ten seconds. The painted bugs lost their target and retreated into the darkness one after another.
Xiao Hei swam up, and when he reached the upper level, Victor gave up the idea of placing a fire spell at the bottom of the Deep Diver.
However, the situation on the upper level was even weirder. He saw floating corpses floating in the cabin. None of the floating corpses had eyeballs, only dark holes.
Moreover, judging from their costumes, they seem to be the same group of thieves who jumped into the sea to escape...
Under the dim light, Victor seemed to find something crawling inside, so he immediately guided Xiao Hei to continue swimming upward.
They finally reached the deck of the Deep Diver, but now the deck was wrapped in rhizomes, and Xiao Hei could only continue to clean and cut it.
Through the golem's sight, Victor could see the part where the Deep Diver was connected to the Northern Faith. Those roots were adsorbed under the hull, almost crawling all over the bottom of the ship.
Victor began to consider detonating the fire spell at the densest connection, so that it might be able to escape immediately.
The densest connection is at the deep diver's cabin. According to the design of sailboats in the past, it should be the captain's cabin.
Xiao Hei grew tentacles, broke the door of the captain's cabin, and squeezed in.
There was a corpse sitting in the corner, which made Victor very concerned.
He waited for a while, and after seeing that the body was motionless, he swam out of Xiao Hei's body.
Victor began to control the secret magic crystal, such as controlling his second body.
After entering the water, the golem didn't move much. Victor only used the ability of vision sharing, which did not consume much of his energy. But now that the golem needs to move, Victor feels great pressure.
He had to get things done quickly, otherwise he would lose the connection with the Mystic Crystal Golem.
So next, the devil took out the talisman hidden in his body.
Because the paper became very fragile in the water, it could not be applied with too much force, so the puppet quickly affixed the charm somewhere in the captain's cabin.
Above is the ship building. The ship building is surrounded by roots connected to the Northern Faith. As long as this place can be blown up and combined with the green combustibles around it, Victor believes there is a chance for the ghost ship to escape.
However, at this time, a terrifying scene happened.
The corpse, which was originally confirmed to have no paintworms in its body, actually moved at this important moment!
He was unkempt, wearing a tattered pirate captain's coat, and his face was covered in pimples, which was disgusting.
Xiao Hei was immediately alert. After Victor realized something was wrong, he immediately entered its body and was wrapped up.
The corpse was different from the floating corpse downstairs. Although his body was full of ulcers and his skin was covered with barnacles, his eyes were moving and very focused, staring straight at Xiao Hei.
"Akkad..."
He opened his mouth, and even though he was in the sea, he still made this sound.
The sea water trembled, as if someone was beating a drum underwater, and then something crawled out from under the deck. It was the floating corpses we saw before!
They seemed to have heard the call and were surrounding the ship building.
Victor knew he had to leave quickly, so he guided Xiao Hei to swim out of the captain's cabin quickly.
The floating corpse parasitized by the painting bug looked at the wandering black shadow and struggled to follow it.
But their swimming speed was too slow, and they couldn't keep up with Xiao Hei, who could change his form at will.
There was no time to think about what was in the cabin. After Xiao Hei swam out to a safe distance, Victor detonated the fire spell in the captain's cabin.
There was vibration under the water again, but it was not as violent as the previous explosive. After all, the power of the fire spell was not as powerful as that kind of explosive.
However, because Xiao Hei destroyed many roots in advance, the flammable green substance was ignited in the sea, and bright fire appeared underwater, which became a rare spectacle in people's lives.
Many people gathered on the deck to watch the underwater burning, and in the flames they seemed to see the shadow hidden under the ship.
There were exclamations one after another, and Xiao Hei transformed into a four-legged creature from the other side and climbed onto the cruise ship, then transformed into a snake and crawled back to Victor's feet secretly.
Victor picked up the golem and then cut off the connection, feeling extremely tired.
"What happened? What on earth did you do?" First Officer Clark asked him hurriedly.
Victor stood up and looked down at the railing. He could see that the shadow was moving away from the Northern Faith. He succeeded...
"Prepare to refuel the cruise ship. First mate, you have to be responsible for commanding us to return to the correct route."
"Wait a minute..." Mate Clark said in surprise, "Where's Captain Morgan? He is the top person in charge of this ship."
"I'll deal with him..." Victor's face turned cold, and he turned and walked towards the ship building.
