Compared to the last voyage, this one was simply too comfortable.
Irin enjoyed the treatment of the governor's wife with a clear conscience. Exquisite breakfast, rich lunch, stylish dinner, afternoon tea, and midnight snacks were all indispensable.
Although these ingredients were not necessarily fresh, after the cooking techniques were improved, there was a different taste.
The surrounding temperature was getting colder and colder.
Tiramisu also thoughtfully brought a fur coat for Irin.
After all, Irin pointed in the right direction and allowed the Navy to discover the location of the ship's grave, which made Tiramisu pay more attention to Irin.
What if something went wrong with Elizabeth Ling Swan, and the next time she pointed, she was not so careful, what should he do?
Three days later.
With the lucky one No. 2 sailing in front and the other eight warships far behind, the Navy once again found the second ship's grave.
This experience was exactly the same as the original Queen.
Irin did not even go out of the room. She just opened the window in the room, tasted the black tea at the right temperature, and observed the traces on the wreckage.
The fourth day.
Another ship's grave.
The fifth day.
Again.
The sixth day.
Again.
There was no surprise.
Tiramisu excitedly rubbed his palms on the deck every time, as if he was not about to face the legendary demon king, but a good husband who was naked and lying on the bed.
Irin counted the time with her fingers.
What made him very helpless was that in this trial, the only thing that could communicate with each other was a dog. The language barrier was really a pain in the ass.
It seemed that when the apostle level was higher, the relevant functions would be unlocked. He had to find a way to get a skill similar to [Dog Language Proficiency Level 10] to be able to communicate with this creature smoothly.
Strangely, since the Navy fleet encountered the first ship's grave, the nine warships did not encounter any excessive marine disasters.
It was very likely that the direction that the nine warships were sailing in meant the biggest "bad luck", so there was no need to add seasoning.
During this period, Tiramisu seemed to feel that it was not safe. He took out the nautical chart many times and let Irin, who had the tragic fate of the Swan family, repeatedly point out the course. Although Irin did not know how to read the nautical chart, he could only memorize it. At certain landmarks, it was heavily imprinted in his mind.
On the ninth day.
After Irin pointed out the course a few more times, Tiramisu felt that something was wrong, so he asked Gu Tianqing to do another divination.
Previously, he didn't know if it was because Gu Tianqing had rejected it, or if his ability needed some kind of consumption or cooldown time, but he always used excuses like "I'm not sincere, and repeated divinations will affect the accuracy".
This time, perhaps because the direction that Irin casually pointed out was too different from the original route, Tiramisu's face darkened and his tone was firm. He insisted that Gu Tianqing perform the divination, or else he would be punished for violating military orders.
Irin stood at the side and observed Gu Tianqing's reaction with a smile.
Last time, Irin's action of reaching for the tarot cards had exposed her intentions. Therefore, this time, Gu Tianqing did not let Irin touch the tarot cards at all. She personally drew the cards and divined the fate of the warship.
"If it's really that accurate, it'll be a troublesome ability."
Although Gu Tianqing stayed far away from everyone and set up the table, Irin quietly sent out invisible tentacles and quietly moved forward from more than 20 meters away.
Gu Tianqing pretended to perform the divination.
Irin speculated that if this set of divination really came from some kind of ability of the Tower, Gu Tianqing might not need to do so many complicated rituals at all. The reason why Gu Tianqing did this was most likely to confuse others.
More importantly … to confuse himself.
Draw cards!
After a round of skillful shuffling, cutting, and repeated operations, Gu Tianqing finally drew three cards from the pile of cards.
In broad daylight, Irin could not release his spirit to observe, so Irin could not see the results of the divination clearly.
Of course, even if he could see it clearly, Irin could not decipher Gu Tianqing's ability.
Before Gu Tianqing could put away the tarot cards, Irin's tentacles instantly touched it.
A cold and smooth touch was fed back from his psychokinesis perception. The texture on the card was as if it was carefully engraved with a knife, delicate but with a pure handmade taste.
Irin's eyes suddenly focused.
This time.
After he stealthily touched the card with his psychokinesis perception, a chill came along with Irin's psychokinesis perception.
At that moment, Irin seemed to feel that there was a pair of blood-red eyes behind Gu Tianqing, invisible and colorless, watching him.
Irin's expression did not change, and he quickly withdrew his psychokinesis.
"As expected?"
After a thought flashed through Irin's mind, he decisively dismissed the idea of forcibly taking a card.
After Irin withdrew his tentacles, suddenly, Gu Tianqing frowned slightly, raised her head, and looked at Irin.
It was an elegant and beautiful lady, with a faint smile on her face, staring at the sea, ah, as if she was looking at the beautiful scenery.
Gu Tianqing: "…"
The divination was completed.
Gu Tianqing quickly put away all the tarot cards, lowered her head and thought for a moment, then hid with Tiramisu, as if they were discussing some small secrets that could not be known by Irin.
Irin laughed and sent a private message to Gu Tianqing.
Irin: What happened to being an ally? You are not kind.
Gu Tianqing: Role playing, I am also helpless.
…
The conversation ended.
Yi Lin didn't expect Gu Tianqing to really spit out any useful information. It was just ridicule.
The two secretly discussed for a while, and sure enough, all the warships, under Tiramisu's command, slightly changed their course, and there was a certain angle deviation from what Irin had pointed out at the beginning.
Nothing happened for a day.
Until … night.
Woo woo woo —
The nine warships once again activated the turbine to accelerate, valiantly forcing their way through the graveyard of ships.
Ka ka ka —
The mottled wreckage hit the wall of the ship, making a series of ear-piercing sounds.
It was as if they were trying to draw out some existence through such a violent method.
In the cabin.
Suddenly.
The hidden "Brand of Death" trembled slightly.
After Irin read the message, he lowered his head and smiled.
At the same time.
In another place of Lucky One No. 2.
In a dark cabin.
The windows were closed, and the door was locked.
Gu Tianqing sat quietly in the narrow and damp cabin, hidden in the darkness.
In the darkness, Gu Tianqing silently stroked the tarot cards one by one, as if she was stroking her lover. She touched the texture on the back of the tarot cards, and her breathing quickened a little.
This posture was as if she was enjoying the texture of the tarot cards on her fingertips.
"Ah, Freya …"
Gu Tianqing whispered, as if it was a woman's name.
Because in this world, in a rare "Scandinavian language", "Freya" meant "noble woman", and the name contained a beautiful meaning.
As an "adventurer from Japan", wasn't it normal for him to learn many languages?
Gu Tianqing stroked the tarot cards over and over again.
One card after another.
She closed her eyes and recalled the delicate touch on the tarot cards.
A moment later.
In the darkness, Gu Tianqing smiled faintly and said calmly, "Freya, your skin is so beautiful that I'll never get tired of it … The human body is just a form of restraint to you. To be able to see the truth of this world in such a manner is the true 'nobility' to you, right? What do you think? Freya … "
Gu Tianqing slowly raised her head.
In the darkness.
In the void.
A scarlet, translucent body, bathed in blood, silently floated in front of Gu Tianqing.
Gu Tianqing looked at the pair of crazy eyes calmly in the dark with a rare gentleness in her eyes.
— "Freya."
Suddenly.
At this moment.
Boom —
Above the deck, there was a sudden violent vibration.
The vibration was even more violent than the sirens of the nine warships when the coal boilers were turned on at the same time and accelerated at the same time.
Gu Tianqing's expression did not change, but she put away the tarot cards in her hand.
With a flip of her palm, the stack of tarot cards turned into cards and disappeared into the darkness.
Gu Tianqing suddenly got up from the bed.
But after a moment, Gu Tianqing seemed to have remembered something and slowly sat down again.
On the deck.
It was chaos.
The terrible explosion seemed to have appeared out of thin air without any warning.
It exploded just like that.
Tiramisu stood in front of the flames in a daze, dumbfounded.
That was the captain's cabin where the governor was.
The power of the explosion was extremely terrible, as if there was a deep hatred. With enough material, the ceiling of the captain's cabin was directly blown up into the sea. The deck was a mess.
"Oh no! Governor! "
Tiramisu's eyes flashed. The other navy had already reacted. In order to put out the fire as soon as possible, they did not hesitate to use precious water, bucket after bucket to extinguish the smoke in front of them.
"Damn pirates!"
"Quick! Search the whole ship! It must be the damn skeleton gentleman who sneaked onto the ship! "
"Also, send a signal to the other warships to seal off this area. The explosion just happened not long ago. Even if the damn pirates left here, they would not have gone far. Pay close attention to whether there are any suspicious figures on the sea. Once you see a lifeboat or a strange ship … Don't ask for permission, just fire!!"
One by one, the orders were issued.
The fire in front of them was quickly extinguished.
Tiramisu's expression froze, as if he had thought of something. He ordered everyone to seal off the deck. Except for himself, no one was allowed to approach the captain's cabin.
In the ruins, a charred figure pushed aside the debris that had been blown up around him and stood up abruptly.
Tiramisu quickly walked forward.
From the charred body, there was a strange voice, "No, nothing … Zizizi … Damn, that guy is most likely … Zizizi …"
Tiramisu saw that the "connection" was not broken and quietly sighed in relief.
Fortunately, it was at night. If it was during the day, the governor's appearance would not be easy to explain.
Ten minutes later.
Macchiato, who always had a flirtatious smile, had a rare nervous expression on his face. Cappuccino also had a taut face. The two admirals went through the lifeboat and boarded Lucky Person 2's deck.
What was strange was that the two admirals were carrying a heavy box in their hands. No one knew what was inside.
"Is he okay?"
Tiramisu nodded, "He's okay, he can still communicate with the 'main body'."
The two of them spoke softly.
The tense atmosphere finally relaxed a little.
At this moment.
A navy soldier hurriedly climbed up from below the deck with a panicked expression.
As the explosion site was far away from the cordon, other than the three admirals, no one was allowed to enter. He could only report to the three admirals from afar, "Not good, not good! Elizabeth, Lady Elizabeth is missing! She is missing! "
When the three admirals heard this, they were stunned.
Why did it have to be at this time?
Tiramisu was most familiar with Elizabeth Ling. She gave the other two admirals a look and immediately went to deal with Elizabeth Ling's disappearance.
How could such a thing happen at such a crucial time?
Damn pirates!
The navy soldier who reported the news, with trembling hands, took out a crumpled sheepskin from his pocket, "Lady Elizabeth is missing! The room is a mess! The window is also broken! There is only a sheepskin on the table, on the sheepskin, on the sheepskin … "
In the end, the navy soldier did not know what scruples he had, but his tone was stuttering.
"Give it to me!"
Tiramisu was impatient and directly snatched the crumpled sheepskin from the stuttering navy soldier's hand.
Instantly.
Tiramisu was dumbfounded.
On the sheepskin, there was a line of words written in blood.
— — "Kusanagi Shiro, I hate you!"
The sheepskin, the words written in blood, the handwriting was hideous and miserable, shocking to the eye, as if hiding the resentment of a sad girl.
“???”
"…"
