Crying Wind's movements were almost faster than the little prince's cry for help.
He grabbed Cang Xu's collar and dragged him back.
Cang Xu was awakened.
He was horrified to find that he was lying on the side of the ship without knowing it, with his upper body stretched out, about to fall into the River Styx.
"Newcomer, you dare to stare at the River Styx. You are so ignorant and fearless." The little prince slapped his ribs with his small palm and exclaimed.
"Don't stare at the River Styx, it will absorb your soul." Crying Wind explained.
"Thank you." Cangxu felt chills all over his body and felt frightened for a while.
Compared with senior undead beings like the Little Prince and Crying Wind, his knowledge reserve seems much shallower.
In fact, taboos about the River Styx are never recorded in conventional books.
Any knowledge about the undead is strictly controlled by the major forces. And as the activities of necromancers increase, control becomes stronger and stronger.
The little prince sighed: "It's a pity that the gold-level man in black didn't catch up. Since he can travel through the shadow plane, he should also be able to use the shadow plane to break into the underworld."
"If he came here and there was no ghost ship to carry him, he would definitely be sucked away by the River Styx."
The Styx River is very dangerous, and a living person like Qing Xin is also on the ghost ship. Otherwise, she would probably be sucked to death by the Styx River before she could react in time.
Cang Xu calmed down his mind and looked at the surface of the Styx River again, but this time he only used the peripheral vision of his eyes, and his eyes kept wandering.
He sighed sincerely: "The River Styx is such a mysterious and wonderful existence. In the process of your soul being absorbed, you feel limited peace, as if a tired traveler has returned to another home."
"You also saw a shadow in the River Styx, and you know what it is."
When Crying Wind heard that, his color suddenly changed.
The eldest prince exclaimed: "What, newcomer, what did he just see?"
Cang Xu suddenly felt relaxed: "Did you see it vaguely? It looked like a vague figure, vaguely a human figure."
The last moment, there was a whimpering sound, and a ghost flew out of the Styx River and blocked the sky below the ghost ship.
Gold level water ghost!
Cang Xu's heart was shocked, and then he relaxed slightly: "It's okay, it's just gold level."
But the eldest prince and Crying Wind were both frightened.
The eldest prince spoke so slowly that his voice changed: "What a fart! Almost all the gold-level people outside the River Styx can survive as a group."
As soon as he finished speaking, ghost cries started.
More than a dozen gold-level water ghosts took off one after another to stop the ghost ship.
Cang Xu and Qing Xin were shocked.
"Little Ship Ghost, help, help!" the eldest prince screamed.
In fact, the eldest prince needed to shout, and the ship ghost had already been alerted by the enemy's situation.
"Get out of the cabin, you're going to return to the main world!" the ship ghost shouted.
Cang Xu and others quickly got into the cabin.
Fortunately, the water ghosts did not have intelligence. They were completely eroded by negative energy, and even their original memories were eroded away.
The water ghosts only have hatred for living things.
From under the ghost ship, they vaguely felt the breath of life, but they were confused.
Just as they surrounded the ghost ship, the space fluctuated violently, and the ghost ship dissipated like fog.
"Back!" When Cang Xu and others returned to the deck again, they saw blue sky, white clouds, and a deserted island nearby.
"Where is that?" Qingxin asked.
Cang Xu took out the compass from his palm and started to determine the direction.
The voice of the ship ghost came: "That is one of your strongholds. You don't have any resource reserves outside the stronghold. Of course, the most important thing is a tragic tombstone. Relying on the spatial coordinates it provides, you can quickly return to the outside of the main world."
"Wait a minute." Ma Bin felt right. I looked at the rising sun in the east. "The time is right. It will be morning when you leave Songfeng Island."
The eldest prince laughed out loud: "Newcomer, you are so stupid."
"Does he think that sailing on the River Styx only involves changes in space?"
"The flow rate of time in the two planes is the same. If I were wrong, it would have been seven days before the Matsukaze Battle."
Ma Bin stared slightly: "So that's what it is!"
The voice of the ship ghost came: "You have to heal your wounds. Just take a rest outside. The time is too long. Since the Fin Spirit has become a traitor, it will be more dangerous outside."
When the fin spirit was mentioned, the eldest prince snorted angrily, and his anger quickly rose.
Just as I was about to curse, a fleet came out from the side of the desert island.
Under the ghost ship, everyone's expressions changed.
"Yes, it's Sea Snake Man's Petal Snake Pirates!"
As soon as they retreated into the sea of ice sculptures, everyone in the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group had the same feeling——
The temperature is rising.
As we approached the ice sculpture island, the temperature became higher and higher.
When the Necromancers encountered the Sea Snake Man's fleet, a fleet also appeared behind the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group.
"Out there is the Ice Sculpture Sea, the territorial waters of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom. You are the Kingdom's 17th patrol fleet. If you want to land on the Ice Sculpture Island, please stop the ship for inspection and registration." The patrol captain is a Silver-level fighter. Retreat and shout through the loudspeaker.
"Two Silver-level, eight Bronze-level magic ships." The dragon man looked at them from a distance for many years and immediately sensed the other party's aura.
Bai Ya stood on the side of the ship. It was my turn to clean the deck today. When she heard the patrol fleet shouting, she exclaimed: "Oh my God, we are only patrol fleet No. 17. That means there are not at most 16 fleets of the same size." Right? The strength of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom is so amazing!"
The mercenary beside me suddenly laughed: "Young man, he has too much knowledge. Ice Sculpture Island is comparable to Snake and Rat Island and Double Eye Island."
"Its land is very vast, with at most a dozen cities and as few as eight small ports."
"The patrol fleet is still the main undersea force of the Ice Sculpture Kingdom. The kingdom has eight main fleets, among which the flagship of the royal fleet is as low as the sanctuary level!"
Bai Ya was dumbfounded.
Sufficient undersea military power allows Ice Sculpture Island to ensure the danger of the sea.
In fact, the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group encountered a patrol fleet not even a long way from the island.
Based on that distance estimate, the patrol range of the fleet is at most a hundred times smaller than the patrol team of Double Eye Island!
The dragon people have been giving orders for many years to stop the ship and undergo inspection.
It is easier to stop a boat under the sea, and it is difficult for the boat to sink to the bottom without an anchor.
However, patrolling the fleet does not require the ships to stop and move. The inspection team we sent out were all extraordinary people, and they jumped over directly from a distance of seven to eight meters.
Snow elf!
The few mercenaries all stared at those people in surprise.
Wrongly speaking, those are all humans, but elves.
The elves include many categories, such as wood elves, white and dark elves (drow), sea elves, etc. And we are one of the snow elves.
Snow elves have the characteristics of the elves, they are both male and female, handsome in appearance and short and thin in stature.
We do not have the unique long ears of the elves, and the white hair and eyebrows are the blood characteristics that distinguish the snow elves from other elves.
The members of the Snow Elf Investigation Team all wore leather armor and carried scimitars at their waists.
We usually have alchemy tools in our hands to detect hidden things.
Zong Ge observed quietly and found that there were only 7 people in the investigation team, including at most one mage.
The ratio of the number of mages and fighters reached 1:6.
That number is quite astonishing!
That is also the advantage of the elven bloodline - the magic talent is very weak, much weaker than that of the human race.
The two investigation teams jointly inspected the Bajiao Love.
That's what we focus on.
"Stay away, human race." The snow elf had an arrogant attitude, holding a long-handled alchemy item and scanning it back and forth.
At the end of the object is an iron ring, which emits blue light.
The investigators who retreated from the ship ladder to the upper floor stood behind a hatch and left.
The long-handled iron ring in my hand glowed red.
"What's outside?" the Snow Elf investigator asked with a weak attitude, "Please open that outside so you can continue to check."
The Dragon Man has been giving orders for many years to open the hatch.
A cabin filled with weapons and armor was revealed in front of the snow elf.
The snow elf's eyelids twitched as he looked at the alchemy crossbows and muskets hanging all over the wall.
Those long-range weapons come from the warehouses of war dealers and are naturally well-made.
Snow elf investigators also see situations like this a lot.
"That's the weapons warehouse outside. In case of abnormal situations, the equipment will be kept centrally. Only when there is no war, will it be released in a hurry." Lan Zao introduced as a companion.
The Snow Elf investigator nodded: "It's a very wrong system."
"Look what you found!" Another Snow Elf investigator whistled.
The long-handled iron ring in my hand is also glowing red.
And behind me is an artillery piece.
Gold level artillery.
Chi Lai stood by the cannon and said warmly to the Snow Elf investigator: "It is your treasure. As he sees it, it needs repairing."
The Snow Elf investigator nodded, took out a pen and paper and took notes while saying: "Your country has a lot of outstanding alchemists, and Bingbingliang Alchemy Studio is one of the best in the world. He will fix it. Of course, later By the way, he has to prepare enough money for repairs."
Chi Lai nodded and said nothing.
The snow elf inspector in charge of the Iron Patch stared at the Feathered Serpent sail, with a rebuke in his tone: "It's unimaginable that they installed such an ugly sail under that stupid guy. Oh my God, it's only temporary. Do they know that the mana dredging pipeline they built is stable? Using the feathered serpent sail like that is shortening its service life? It is simply a waste of resources!"
The investigation team inspected for a long time and almost even found out the bottom of the ship.
Zong Ge had a hard face.
As a general, having the details of my team investigated so thoroughly made me extremely satisfied, and I didn't even feel a sense of humiliation.
The results of the inspection were reported to the captain of the patrol fleet.
"Eight magic ships, the white iron-class Octagonal Love, the bronze-class White Bandage and the Iron Pimple."
"The Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group...the team battle dragon uniforms are silver-level, and the deputy leader Shiqi is also silver-level. Apart from these, there are no other silver-level fighters."
"A gold-level cannon, a feathered serpent sail of the same level..."
"As a large mercenary group, there is no gold-level equipment! There are also very few silver-level equipment. It can be said that it has a profound foundation and is full of talents."
"But..." The patrol captain looked at the outside and showed a strange look, "What's going on with that team? There are none of all races."
"Dwarves, water pigs, Shiba Inu people, humans, half giants, dragons...are you going to start a circus?"
“Too cluttered!”
The patrol captains have been worried about the dragon people for many years. Such a team with few racial mixtures must have few beliefs. How can such a team be led?
If I knew that the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group did not have orcs, goblins or even necromancers, what would I think?
