Chapter 738: Chapter 738: Deep in the Ocean

“I may have found a way out of here…”

As Han Dong uttered these words.

Imdiately, Captain Diz turned his head, his pupils filled with suspicion… After all, the information he had gathered thus far was still insufficient to determine a thod of escape, he hadn’t even found a hint of an exit yet.

“We need to go out to sea.”

“The reason?”

Lucius, having cooperated with Han Dong several tis, might not question anything.

...

But it was different for the ‘Silver Edge’ squad that was collaborating with him for the first ti… Captain Diz could not entrust the lives of his squad mbers to an apprentice knight without asking any questions.

“While you were investigating the town, I disguised myself as a crew mber and followed a salvage ship out to sea, where I discovered a secret about the town… There is an escape route out there.”

Just as Captain Diz was about to probe deeper into the matter.

The vice captain of the Silver Edge, Fighting Nun Vino, stood up and actively proposed.

“Captain, Nicholas has a different perception of the ‘outside world’ than the rest of us, let’s trust him this ti.

“Besides, he has been out to sea before, which ans the dangers on the sea are within an acceptable range.

“Let’s all go out to sea together and conduct a comprehensive investigation of the nearby sea area.

“If it’s really as Nicholas claims, and we find an exit, we can all leave together… if we don’t, we can collect so information about the sea.”

“Alright, let’s do as you suggest and go out to sea together.

“However, before we act, Nicholas you need to report in detail on your encounters at sea, so that everyone can be prepared in advance.”

First, Han Dong cast a glance at ‘Sister Vino’ in gratitude, and said with a smile, “Actually, there’s only one thing you need to beware of… everyone must be prepared to defend your mind and never fall asleep during this period.”

Han Dong deliberately used the word ‘fall into’ to emphasize the seriousness of the consequences that sleep would bring.

Just like that.

Thanks to Vino’s suggestion, everyone agreed unanimously.

Taking into consideration that the overall performance of ‘The Galantis’ was not bad, Han Dong chose this ship again.

As for the captain, considering so hidden risks (this man had been at sea for a long ti and used a large amount of inferior conchs, which resulted in a lot of ‘instability factors’ accumulated in his body).

Han Dong didn’t use illusion techniques or direct execution to eliminate the captain, but chose safer and legal ans to remove the danger.

Brother Dumps, during his investigation of the town on the previous day, had considered the need for money and had obtained quite a few mid- and high-grade conchs from the ladies living in the mansions.

He bought ‘The Galantis’ directly from the captain, eliminating all risks.

At the sa ti, Dumps was still holding onto a few almost perfect conchs.

This was also the key information that Han Dong had privately communicated and confird with Dumps… otherwise, Han Dong would not have proposed to go out to sea so soon.

No crew mbers were recruited.

After confirming that the steam power device in the cabin was functioning normally, they set off to sea.

As the mist on the sea spread to the deck area, the mbers of the three squads, more or less, felt the assault of sleepiness.

Not long after setting sail, strange cries ca from the mist.

It was like a group of fishern who had lost their way in the sea and were in despair.

Gradually, the silhouettes of creatures resembling seagulls erged from the mist.

As these flying creatures gradually ca into view, the squad mbers on the deck were more or less surprised.

The individual flying in the mist was not a seagull at all.

It was a peculiar bird species, with an adult head, a child’s body, and seagull wings…

From their mouths they spat out sharp, spike-like tentacles that could pierce collectively the heads of crew mbers and suck out the nutrients inside.

Unfortunately, the ‘crewmbers’ they had found this ti were a bit different.

Just as everyone was about to take action, a sacred fla that could burn evil rose from the deck.

Knight Vino Silist suddenly brandished the flail in her hand.

Gold flas sparkled on the flail, illuminating the surroundings.

The wide-field Holy Fla imdiately burnt all the Oddities hovering above the ship to ashes.

The remaining ‘Head Seagulls’, scared off, retreated imdiately.

Han Dong couldn’t help but glance at Knight Vino.

Compared to the original Vino, who was more focused on support and defense, her offensive capabilities had undergone a qualitative upgrade… Especially the “Holy Fla,” a feature specifically enhanced against Demons, had climbed more than one level.

Clearly, it was the result of the ‘Fighting Nun’ training.

As Vino retracted her flail, she imdiately casted a high-level Church “Blessing” on the squad mbers.

A praying nun image, with wings folded, appeared above everyone’s head, indicating that the blessing had taken effect.

‘Nun’s Blessing’ – increases physical, magic, and ntal resistance, lasts for 30min. As long as you are within 100 ters from Knight Vino, the effect’s duration will be constantly refreshed.

During the voyage, they were attacked by various ‘little’ sea creatures.

Whether it’s the intensity of the attack or the level of pollution, it was only at the Apprentice Knight level… For the three elite squads, it was essentially like a warm-up exercise prior to their investigation.

“Be careful, everyone, in five minutes we will reach the area where the conch is, which will also be a crucial point for our ‘departure’.

The effect of ntal assault will reach its peak.”

Once again, they returned to the “Salvage Area”.

Hum hum hum~??

The sa strange tune ca from the bottom of the sea, guiding the visitors here to self-sacrifice.

You can tell, because this kind of tune could cause Han Dong’s Talent Tree to tremble slightly.

Among the knights of the three squads, even with ample preparation, so still found their ntal defenses were weak and were affected.

Including Winry, Jane, and Sura the Ice Maker.

They would occasionally fall into a state of ‘intermittent’ confusion. Every ti they regains consciousness, they would find themselves several ters closer to the ship’s edge…scaring them enough to retreat back into the cabin.

Even trying to tie themselves up, they still could not avoid the behavior of ‘jumping into the sea’.

“We have to keep going…”

Han Dong’s goal was crystal clear.

Continue to advance in the “Salvage Area”.

Whether it’s the onslaught of sleepiness,

Or the bewitchnt of the singing, both were continually increasing,

So much so that Abe in the status of an owl, Mia, who cursed herself, Lenze, appearing as a dead spirit and the pharmacist Lilinxia, who had taken anti-spiritual drugs, all fell into an intermittent state of confusion one after another.

The crew were also yawning incessantly.

Ha ha ha…

Suddenly a mad laugh spread over the steamboat. The laughter stimulated everyone’s nerves, dramatically improving their ntal defenses in a short ti.

“We’re here, this is the place!”

As the laughter ended, the steamboat gradually ca to a stop.

The thick fog that enveloped the ship dissipated, and the singing and sleepiness were all reduced to [zero]… But in contrast, they beca a more direct sense of fear and danger.

If there are individuals with strong visuals, looking down at the seabed at this ti, they will see a ‘spectacle’.

In the shallow seas hundreds of ters deep, thousands of billions of conches are arranged in a regulated manner… covering an area of more than a hundred kiloters.

The tightly and orderly arranged conches ford a giant array.

The steamboat Han Dong and his companions were on was right at the eye of the Array.

At this mont, Han Dong was holding the perfect conch gotten from Dumps, “Next, we need to select the ‘Drears’ and the ‘Dream Keepers”…
