The swarming beast tide and the monsters in the sky suddenly stopped when they were about 100 meters away from the Blood Moon Killer Ship.
Under the illumination of the blood moon, those beasts and monsters were as crazy as they were now in front of the Blood Moon Killer Ship.
As if a pair of invisible hands pressed the mute button in this world at this moment, all the beasts' roars disappeared.
The beasts, which would definitely kill each other when they met in the wilderness, suddenly stopped 100 meters away. Even the most territorial beasts did not attack each other. Instead, they all raised their heads and looked at the Moon Ship.
The monsters in the sky were the same. They were densely packed like moths, covering the void. However, they didn't approach, flying silently.
"They … seem to be afraid of this ship?"
A villager said in a trembling voice.
"They dare not come up. Huff, huff … we are safe." Another villager gasped.
Li Mu felt the same.
"They are afraid of this ship, but they seem to be waiting for something." Li Mu said, "It seems that we don't have to worry about these beasts and monsters for the time being, but …"
Speaking of this, Li Mu looked back in other directions on the ship.
Of course, the beasts and monsters were not afraid of the ship, but something inside the ship.
In other words, the ship might be more dangerous than the ship.
But Li Mu thought for a while and did not say it.
He was afraid of scaring Second Brother Feng and the others.
He stood on the high bow deck and looked around.
Under the illumination of the blood moon, wherever his eyes could see, there were already wild beasts. Some of them were monsters that he had never seen before. Some of them were huge and over a hundred meters tall. Their auras were extremely ferocious, and they squeezed to the front of the herd.
There were all sorts of devil monsters. It was rumored that devil monsters were formed from the resentment of living beings after they died, so there were both humanoid and beast-like creatures. When some devil monsters landed in a beast herd, all the beasts within a few meters immediately retreated.
In the west, Li Mu saw a female ghost-like monster dressed in white with long hair. She was the size of a normal person, but the gloomy aura fluctuating from her body was terrifying to the extreme. Standing at the forefront, she was obviously a Demon King-level monster and also the strongest among all the monsters and beasts in the west.
In the south, firmly occupying the foremost position, there was a large white snake that seemed to be made of silver. It was as thick as the mouth of a bowl and about ten meters long. Compared to some of the other giant beasts, it was neither large nor tall, but under the illumination of the blood moon, it was shining with a white light. Its eyes were azure blue, and there were two large scales seven inches below its neck, like a pair of wings. It was unknown what kind of snake it was, but it was emitting a dangerous aura.
In the east, there was a pitch-black steed. Its body was almost the same as a normal adult steed, but the muscles all over its body were bright. The fur on its hooves was white as if it was treading on snow, and its teeth were as white as knives. It was incomparably handsome. There was a spiral horn on its forehead, which looked like a unicorn. Standing at the front of the beast tide, the pressure it emitted was no weaker than that of the black-haired ghost-like monster and the silver snake.
In the north, there was a huge dark red scorpion. It was more than 20 meters tall, and its tail was more than 100 meters long. Its dark red shell shone with a metallic luster.
The claws and tail of the scorpion were hooked, which made people feel a chill at first sight.
One monster, three beasts.
This should be the strongest wild creature in the surrounding hundreds of miles.
"Ah, I heard the legend of that horse. It is a black dragon, the overlord of the wilderness. It is said that a general of the Marquis Army once wanted to subdue it, but he failed …" Second Brother Feng pointed at the black single-horned steed in the east and exclaimed.
East Xincun was a small village, so it did not know much about the outside world, but there were some vague legends. Second Brother Feng, who had joined the army, had heard some.
Black Dragon Horse?
Li Mu could not help but look at the horse a few more times.
Generally speaking, creatures like horses were not particularly aggressive, and it was even more difficult to become a beast king. But this horse was so famous, so there was definitely something special about it. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a natural god.
Under the illumination of the blood moon, the wind whistled.
The surrounding beasts and monsters were silently waiting for something.
Those few beast kings and demon kings occasionally glanced at Li Mu and the others standing on the bow of the ship, but they did not stop at all, as if they were looking at dead things.
Li Mu felt the amplitude of the rusted sword and gradually found some pattern.
"You guys stay here, don't wander around. I will go inside the ship to take a look," Li Mu said to Second Brother Feng and the others.
"What?" Second Brother Feng said in surprise, "Brother Mu, you want to go into the cabin? There may be danger inside, and these beasts and monsters do not dare to come close. Maybe there is something strange about this ship, and you can't go alone. How about this, we all go with you, and we can take care of each other. "
The others also agreed.
Li Mu shook his head and said, "If there is any danger, I can't take care of you."
He bit the tip of his finger, and the blood containing the golden talisman power dripped on the deck, and then swam by itself, like a brush, and drew on the bow of the ship.
Talisman patterns were drawn by the pale golden blood, and a small tactical deployment protected Second Brother Feng and the others. As the tactical deployment was completed, Li Mu injected the golden talisman power, leading the flow of the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth to converge. The golden light of the pattern shone brightly, forming a large golden bell, upside down, and trapping everyone inside.
Taoist magic, Golden Bell Shield!
This world was extremely rich in the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth, so the power of all kinds of Taoist magic was dozens or hundreds of times greater than on Earth.
"You guys stay inside, no matter what happens, don't go out of the range of this golden bell, and wait for me to come back."
Li Mu turned and left.
A part of the deck from the bow to the command cabin had been hit, and there was a big hole that collapsed. The deep darkness swallowed the light, and they could not see what was below. Li Mu thought about it, and did not enter the inner cabin from this big hole, but directly crossed it, came to the tower in the middle of the giant ship, and pushed the door to go in.
Creak!
It was the sound of the rotten wooden axle turning.
The Moon Ship was badly decayed, but strangely, there was not a speck of dust anywhere.
The room in the tower was dim, and with Li Mu's eyesight, he could roughly see that there was a rudder, a large map sand table, a weapon rack, and tables and chairs, all of which had decayed to different degrees. However, on the innermost wall hung a map, which depicted the geographical patterns of some unknown place. This map was made of some very mysterious material, and it was not damaged at all. Different lines in red, yellow, green, blue, and silver outlined different geographical environments. Right on the top of the map, there were two big characters with great momentum and thick strokes, but Li Mu did not know these two characters.
Some other marks on the map were also in a language that Li Mu did not know.
The tower had a total of three floors. The first floor should be the command cabin, the second floor was the weapon room, and the third floor was the observation deck. Li Mu had searched all of them, but except for the map on the first floor, there was nothing else complete, and he did not find any clues about Wang Shiyu's soul.
In the end, Li Mu took down this strange map and put it away.
Li Mu did not know why, but he always had a feeling that this map was of great significance.
After searching the tower, Li Mu searched the aft part behind the tower, but still found nothing. The frequency of the rusted sword's vibration was high and low, guiding Li Mu to constantly adjust the direction of the search.
This ship seemed to have gone through a cruel battle, so there were traces of damage everywhere, as if it had been blasted by a giant cannon, and some of the ship's sides and decks were covered with knife and sword marks … The only strange thing was that there was no corpse, not even a piece of bone.
Finally, along the stairs down, Li Mu entered the cabin under the deck.
The inner cabin under the deck of a general battleship was divided into living areas, storage areas, gun posts, elixir storage areas, and operation areas. But the interior of this huge ship was like a luxurious five-star hotel building, divided into ten floors, each of which was extremely spacious, connected by fixed Teleportation Formations and stairs. Of course, this was the scale that Li Mu inferred when it was in its heyday and intact according to the dilapidated scene he saw. At this time, the inner cabin had been destroyed, like a ghost town, dark and silent. The broken stairs, the collapsed inner deck, the prison-like rooms, and the outer walls seemed to have been bombed … Chaos, ruins, darkness, horror, and gloom. This was the impression that the inner cabin gave Li Mu now.
Li Mu knew that he did not have much time.
So, under the guidance of the rusted sword, he ran directly to the deepest part of the inner cabin.
"Soon, soon, I'll find it soon …"
The closer he got to the bottom of the inner cabin, the more the rusted sword's vibration reached its peak, and a wisp of warm breath came from the sword hilt, as if it was urging Li Mu.
Li Mu jumped down.
Clatter.
He fell to the bottom.
This was a relatively spacious space.
Wooden boxes were placed around him, all of which were covered with talismans and seals. Li Mu had no idea what was inside, but a ghastly Ghost Qi was swirling around the place. Right in front of Li Mu was a locked room, from which a kind of faint energy fluctuation came and went, sometimes not.
Swoosh!
The rusted sword directly flew up and smashed the lock at once.
Li Mu was shocked and flashed to open the door.
Silver light flashed in the room and flowed out. Li Mu saw a bluestone table, on which there were three fist-sized beads. The silver light came from the bead on the left.
Night-luminescent pearl?
Li Mu was stunned.
When he looked again, the bead on the right was transparent, like a glass ball, and there was a white shadow swaying inside. When he looked carefully, Li Mu was shocked.
That white shadow was Wang Shiyu, wasn't it?
Like a ghost imprisoned in the bead, this figure had a slim figure and a clear face, wandering alone inside. Its shape and appearance were exactly the same as Wang Shiyu's … This must be Wang Shiyu's soul.
