The vast expanse of sea is calm and calm, shrouded in darkness. There is a huge silver moon above the night, casting moonlight like a gauze, rippling with the waves.
In the passenger ship, Zhao Xuan and Hermione lived in the same room. Of course, there were two beds. The two of them were lying on their own beds, their eyes slightly closed, but they secretly communicated with each other using their mental power.
It was already late at night, but the boat was too quiet. Even the noisy casino was silent at the moment. This was too unusual.
Zhao Xuan's consciousness covered the vast sea area around him. He could feel the ship moving at an accelerated speed, but the route the ship took was a bit strange. It did not sail according to the established route, but instead headed towards the vast open sea.
"What do you think they are planning to do? Kill and steal goods or kidnap and extort?"
In the spiritual network built by Zhao Xuan, the two whispered quietly, and Hermione guessed it through the information fed back by Zhao Xuan's spiritual consciousness.
"Who knows, just play with them, otherwise the journey would be too boring."
Zhao Xuan was not in a hurry, but had some small expectations.
Suddenly there was a sound of light footsteps outside the corridor. The footsteps were very light and slow, as if they were afraid of disturbing the sleeping people.
The footsteps suddenly stopped outside their door. Through Zhao Xuan's consciousness, they could see a figure listening outside their door.
The visitor was very patient and listened for a full quarter of an hour before taking his ears away from the door panel. Then there was a sound of keys, and only a "click" was heard, and the entire door opened.
Zhao Xuan and Hermione pretended to be asleep without making any movement. The visitor took a look and then slowly closed the door. A soft murmur came from outside the door: "Really, this is not about being knocked out."
Well, I don’t know what the second master is worried about.”
As the footsteps gradually faded away, calm returned to the outside.
Inside the room, Zhao Xuan opened his eyes, then silently stood up and looked at each other.
"Zhao Xuan, you said we won't really meet pirates, right?"
Hermione said with some surprise. She also heard the man's murmur just now. He was called "Second Master". This was obviously not a normal title on a sea ship.
"I don't know, but I don't think such a group of soul masters will become pirates."
Zhao Xuan rubbed his chin and thought, then said immediately: "Let's take a look."
…
The control room of the cruise ship is brightly lit compared to other parts of the cruise ship that have fallen into darkness.
A somewhat frail man walked in, attracting the attention of everyone in the room.
"Monkey, do you have any questions?" someone asked immediately.
"Don't worry, Second Boss, it'll be fine!"
The weak man waved his hand towards a man with a beard, and this man was the first mate of the ship.
"I just said it would be okay, dick!"
"In addition to water and food, I have placed sleeping powder in every hidden corner of the ship. These people will definitely fall into a deep sleep after taking it for so long."
At this time, a stout man reached out and patted the first mate on the shoulder. This man was very tall, probably over two and a half meters tall, and his figure was unusually strong. Compared with others, he was like a little giant.
And this man is the captain of this cruise ship.
The first mate was still hesitant. He shook his head and said, "Brother, you have never seen that look. That young man glanced at me casually. I felt like a gleam on my back and chills all over my body!"
The captain laughed loudly, with a loud voice that echoed in the cabin like thunder: "Boy, you are getting more and more timid. Even if a young boy is a soul master, how strong is he?"
After a pause, he patted the first mate on the shoulder and sighed: "Second brother, you may be mentally stressed, but people will be destroyed for their own sake, so it is their honor to be sacrifices to enhance our strength!
"
The captain's eyes were filled with sharp light and cruel murderous intent. He gave up comforting the first mate and turned to a crew member beside him: "How far are we from the Ghost Island?"
The crew member quickly replied: "Master, there is still a distance of 600 miles."
"Then go ahead at full speed and activate the soul guidance propulsion system for me. I must reach the Ghost Island before noon tomorrow. I believe you can't wait. There are more than two hundred people this time. I believe the person on the island will be satisfied.
Yes, your benefits are indispensable!"
"yes!"
I don't know what I thought of, but the eyes of the crew members in the cabin showed excitement, and they started fucking enthusiastically.
The first mate still had some doubts and wanted to take a look, but when he thought about what the captain said, he felt there was no need to go to the trouble.
"Forget it, no matter what they are like, it will be in vain no matter what they do on the island."
…
The next day.
At noon, the cruise ship was still plowing through the waves on the sea, but the ship was still quiet, and there were only a few vigilant sailors on the originally crowded deck.
Zhao Xuan and Hermione were already bored at this time. If he didn't want to see what these people wanted to do, Zhao Xuan would have killed those people long ago.
"Oh no, a group of thousand-year-old dark octopuses are surrounding us!"
"Damn it, hurry up and kill them. We'll be at Ghost Island soon. If something happens, you won't be able to eat me and walk around!"
Immediately, waves of soul power were transmitted from the deck of the cruise ship.
Zhao Xuan and Hermione looked at each other, and then quickly walked to the window of the room. They saw that the calm sea suddenly became rough, and huge black octopuses were approaching the cruise ship.
"This is..." Hermione looked surprised.
"Sea monsters! Monsters that live in the sea! Their soul power fluctuations are a bit strange, but my consciousness didn't detect them!"
Zhao Xuan looked at the octopus that was only more than ten meters in size with some surprise, and there was also curiosity in his heart.
There were several flying soul masters in the sky. Zhao Xuan was afraid of being discovered, so he pulled Hermione back, and then used the spiritual network for the two of them to observe.
It turned out that everyone on this ship was a soul master, and the lowest ones all had the cultivation level of Soul Lord. A giant-like figure on the deck even had the strength of Soul Emperor level.
Although there were a lot of octopuses, as many as ten or twenty, they were quickly suppressed under the leadership of a soul emperor and several soul kings. The dark green blood infected the entire sea, and the faint purple color
The soul ring is floating on the surface of the sea but no one cares about it.
"Captain! There are several holes in the bottom and they can't be repaired!" an anxious voice echoed.
"Let me run the propulsion system at full power, and the rest of the people will help me get the sea water out."
People outside were busy working, but inside the cabin, Zhao Xuan and Hermione watched with interest, looking extremely relaxed.
The cruise ship was bumping forward, and although the speed had slowed down, it was still moving forward hard towards the destination.
Until dusk, a somewhat excited voice suddenly came from the ship: "Captain! The Ghost Island has arrived!"
