As Minos' six wings emitted an intense glow, burning the translucent creature's body extrely bright and white, most of the skeletons not so affected by Abby's powers lost so of their strength and will.
Seizing the mont, Tiolos and the level 115 man attacked with their divine abilities, destroying the strongest opponents as they landed on the enemy vessel.
anwhile, Abby felt her powers affecting her enemies more strongly. She controlled a few creatures, focusing on fewer individuals while making these few act against their own undead companions.
With one swift movent, so of the many skeletons turned on their own allies, launching themselves at them with sudden attacks.
This, however, didn't happen as quickly as everyone would have liked. Amid the creatures being paralyzed and weakened by the attacks of the strongest and Minos' action against the glowing being, so of the undead reached the tal vessel, or even launched attacks.
Arrows and spears flew from the wooden vessel towards the tal ship, just monts before semi-transparent blue barriers ford in the air between the ship and the enemy attacks.
The arrows with the power to injure even level 114 Sovereigns stopped at the ship's defenses, while the few remaining n with consciousness there breathed more calmly at the sight of their defenses standing.
"Attack!" shouted Diret as he approved the use of the ship's laser cannons.
Then, as quickly as the navigator's voice, colored rays of energy shot out from the tal ship, illuminating the surroundings as they passed through everything in their path.
So corpses inside the wooden ship were instantly disintegrated, while others fell disoriented to the ground, even more susceptible to the attacks of Minos' group.
"Forward!" said Tiolos as the two giants saw the mont to leave the side of their vessel.
They looked at each other and smiled, flying to count the opposing craft as they brought their hands closer together.
The mont their joint attack happened, Minos saw a gap, a crack in the shining body in front of him, and made his last move before his level dropped.
With a swift movent of his dragon forelegs, a black hole ford, crossing the space and reaching the weak point of the enemy paralyzed by the golden light of the seraphim wings.
The creature stopped screaming for a mont before disappearing completely.
As soon as it was gone, Minos' black hole grew 10 tis in size, while each of the skeletons still standing fell, their senses and signs of power disappearing completely.
In an instant, all the noise and spiritual disturbance in the area stopped and finally, both ships started moving again.
"Stop the ship!" Diret gave the orders, as Minos landed on the enemy ship, where Tiolos and another of his n were already standing.
He looked at the bodies that a mont ago had seed full of life, but now seed to be just skeletons dressed in armor and with weapons nearby.
The level 115 General bent down next to one of these bodies and said in shock, "These are weapons and armor that only guild inner mbers would have... But they all seem to wear them!"
Tiolos agreed as he returned to his humanoid form, feeling that the danger had passed. "Whoever was behind that ship, that was an extrely powerful crew, superior to ours in almost every way."
"Maybe that's why they were sailing such an ordinary ship on such a dangerous sea," Minos said in a low voice.
As they spoke, observing the surroundings from the first level of the ship, Izan arrived on that ship, having been one of the few to withstand the ntal attack of the creature destroyed by Minos.
Looking at the nacing sphere of energy in Minos' hands—a Black Hole Bomb—this old sailor sighed. "I didn't think we'd find a ghost pirate ship so close to the mainland."
"Ghost ship? Pirate?" Tiolos asked.
"Yes, pirates do exist in the Violent Sea. In fact, so of the groups with the most knowledge of the sea that we're challenging are pirates. Individuals repudiated by the forces of the two continents, ambitious for what lies in this fantastic region, they sail the great Violent Sea and dominate secret islands.
I wouldn't think it strange if, at the end of our journey, we ca across three or four groups of pirates. But a ghost ship is not common. However, this one certainly was one." Izan said on what little of the seafaring stories he knew.
"That being you destroyed, boss, was probably a fearso ghost!" This fellow said as he looked into Minos' eyes.
Minos had never seen any ghosts in the Spiritual World, The Adamant Land or any other planet he had been to. But he had heard about this kind of fantastic creature before.
"Ghosts, incarnations of dead beings, born of chaos and hatred, devoid of rationality and on an eternal hunt to find what they lack in order to ascend to reincarnation... What could be behind the ghost of a pirate crew?" Minos asked.
"You'll never know... These are hard mysteries to decipher. But we have to be careful and leave as soon as possible, boss. Ghosts are not welcod by the world. They bring negative karma. We'd better leave and forget what happened as soon as possible." Izan looked around, as if he was looking for soone watching them.
"Their fantastic origin is not only related to the particularities of the dead who give rise to them. Ghosts only form in special, dark, and awful places."
Minos looked at his other companions and said, "Search this place. Take everything of value. Let's leave as soon as possible!"
Tiolos and the General of Armhands moved off, while he himself made his way to the lower levels of the ship, with Abby at his side.
"I feel like that being's death didn't take everything bad that was here with it," she said to him as he made his way to what looked like an old office, probably the ho of the ship's forr captain.
In this dusty place, full of cracks, broken items, a few bodies and a hole in the ceiling, a tal box next to a large painting covered in dust caught Abby's eye.
She approached the item, but didn't pick it up imdiately. "I sense sothing strange about this item. I think we should take it." She indicated, as he looked at the item that had a keyhole.
