Chapter 71 Devil Sea
"What's going on?" Enzo frowned slightly. There was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the cabin. It seemed that the passengers in the ghost ship felt the shaking and rushed to the deck.
"Let's go take a look too." Rowling suggested.
The four people then left the cabin and came to the deck of the giant ship.
At this time, many passengers had gathered on the deck. They stood together in small groups and pointed at the direction where the giant ship was about to sail.
Following the direction of the passengers' fingers, Enzo looked towards the direction where the giant ship was traveling. The dark sky was covered with dark clouds, and the fog like thick smoke rolled away on the sea. The sea in the distance was dead and silent, and it was impossible to see. to any breath of life.
"That's the Devil's Sea!" Luo Lin's face turned slightly pale.
"Devil Sea?" Enzo frowned slightly, a look of memories appeared on his face.
According to rumors, it is a cursed sea area. The sea has been filled with fog for many years. Any ship entering it will lose its way and eventually die. It has been regarded as a forbidden area by the coastal kingdom for many years.
Some scholars even believe that the Devil's Sea is the destination of human souls after death, and call it the 'end of the world'.
Other scholars believe that the Devil's Sea is the only way to the Wizarding Continent. The ghost ship that appears every ten years can reach the real Wizarding Continent after passing through that sea.
The two views have been debated for many years, but there has been no conclusion.
Before setting foot on the giant ship, Enzo had learned about the ghost ship's route, so it was clear that according to the information currently known to the world, the ghost ship would eventually enter the Devil's Sea after leaving the waters of the Silver Moon Kingdom.
Where it will go from here, no one is sure.
"Are you finally entering this sea area?" Enzo took a deep breath, with a strange luster in his eyes.
This journey with an unknown destination has only officially begun now. No one knows what is in the Devil's Sea, and no one knows whether they can really reach the legendary Wizarding Continent after passing through this sea.
The giant ship drove slowly like this, entering layers of fog without moving forward.
The surrounding environment gradually became dark. Although it was night, it seemed that even the moonlight was blocked by the fog drifting from the Devil's Sea. The passengers on the deck lit torches, but they still could not dispel the darkness.
After a while, the giant ship continued to move forward, and nothing unusual happened on the sea.
The passengers on the deck began to gradually disperse, and everyone was anxious and looking forward to the journey ahead.
"Let's go back too." Seeing that there were fewer and fewer passengers around, Enzo said.
"It's so boring. I thought what would happen after entering the Devil's Sea." Jorah shrugged, with an expression on his face that he was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.
The four of them then returned to the cabin and continued to enjoy barbecue and wine.
The little episode did not affect Jorah's mood. After returning to the dining table, he continued to talk, using humorous words to make Winnie and Rowling excited, and soon brought them closer together. .
Before long, the wine bottles on the table were empty.
After Winnie drank several glasses of red wine, her face suddenly turned red and she looked dazed. Although Rowling drank more wine, she still remained sober. After rejecting Jorah's suggestion to continue, she decisively pulled the Follow Winnie out of the cabin.
"What a pity." Looking at the backs of the two noble ladies leaving, Jorah smacked his lips in regret.
That expression was like that of a toad that has not eaten the swan.
Enzo shrugged helplessly, drank the last sip of red wine in the glass, and then left the cabin and returned to his room.
In the dim fog, the giant wheel moved forward slowly.
The surrounding sea area was deathly silent. There were no seabirds in the sky, and even no fish could be seen under the sea. In this Devil's Sea, which was regarded as a 'forbidden zone' by the coastal kingdoms, it seemed that there was no breath of life.
It was approaching late at night, and the passengers on the giant ship had already fallen asleep.
At the entrance connecting the deck and the cabin, a short and thin figure suddenly walked out. He staggered to the edge of the deck. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, then unbuttoned his pants and turned his body towards the sea.
"It's so cold. If I had known, I should have drank less water." The sea breeze blew by, and the short and thin man shrank his shoulders and muttered.
Crash.
With the sound of brisk running water, a look of relief appeared on the face of the short and thin man. After solving the physical problem, he hummed a little tune and pulled up his trousers, and then prepared to return to the cabin.
"Hey, what is that?" Just as the short and thin man was about to turn around, he suddenly saw something.
In the deep sea, a black shadow loomed, and the originally calm sea surface suddenly became turbulent. Among the surging waves, the outline of the black shadow became clearer, and the short and thin man's expression suddenly changed drastically.
The next moment, a dry and slippery arm suddenly broke out of the sea!
The short and thin man was startled, couldn't help but retreat, and fell to the deck.
brush!
The black shadow in the deep sea jumped out of the water, and its sharp claws nimbly climbed onto the giant ship. It climbed onto the deck extremely quickly, and appeared in front of the short and thin man in only a few seconds.
Seeing the appearance of the black shadow in the sea, the short and thin man seemed to be strangled by the throat, his lips were pale and open, and his eyes were filled with fear.
Black and gray scales cover the whole body, and the length of the limbs is almost human, but it lies on the ground like a beast, with messy seaweed wrapped around its waist. A pair of scarlet eyes are filled with bloodlust, and water drops are constantly dripping from its wet body.
It looked like a water ghost in the deep sea.
"Ah!!!" The short and thin man's lips trembled and he finally couldn't help but let out a scream.
