The singing gradually faded away.
Outside the banquet hall, Gao Yi watched the last crew member disappear, and then calmly came outside the compartment.
In the bright room, there were about a hundred crew members seated. Simple wooden tableware had been placed on the table in front of everyone. Gao Yi saw a chef walking along the aisle, placing the food in an orderly manner. Make allocations.
In ancient times, even for the most high-end banquets, the standard of "gourmet food" was no better than the most common three meals a day in modern times.
However, for the crew who have been wandering at sea for a long time, there is no doubt that this is a delicious feast.
The soft boiled beans were left with the soup on the wooden spoon, and there were faint traces of minced meat inside. These luxuries, which were preserved through air-drying, finally found the right time to be presented to the table.
On the other side, there were steaming potatoes and corn, and the long-reserved wine was poured into the cups one by one. The crew members surrounded themselves among the pickles and preserved fruits, enjoying themselves to their heart's content.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was getting better, but Gao Yi's brows frowned slightly.
"Why isn't the captain here?"
The commanders of this type of fleet should have clothing that is completely different from ordinary sailors. However, after searching for a long time, I did not find any candidate with matching characteristics.
"Is it possible that he hasn't arrived yet?" Gao Yi thought to himself.
If this person didn't come to the banquet, then the most likely thing left is the captain's cabin on the upper floor and the captain's lounge on the same floor...
Rather than talking nonsense at the banquet, Gao Yi was more willing to start with the captain directly.
As an integral part of the Sun Fleet and a mainstay commander, he must understand the reason for the entire voyage.
If you can use [Translation Bulb] to capture the conversation that the other party happens to be having, then maybe you can get some key information.
After taking a look at the ordinary banquet, Gao Yi thought that it would end in vain, but something happened in vain!
boom!
There was a muffled sound of collision, and Gao Yi saw a crew member who seemed to be too drunk. His whole face suddenly leaned forward and fell, hitting the dinner plate. In an instant, the food flew everywhere.
On his right side, half a glass of unfinished wine poured down, making the entire ground wet.
boom!
boom!
Then more sailors fell.
They were like a set of dominoes whose mechanism was affected. They were unable to even perform the most basic resistance. Their eyes went dark and they fell unconscious.
"Drugs?"
Off the court, Gao Yi finally paid attention.
The reason why he said this was because there were still more than ten people in the banquet hall who had not fallen down.
On the faces of these ten or so people, the original smiles had disappeared, and turned into indifference and contempt, as if they were just joking.
Then, they took out sharp daggers from their arms and walked straight towards their unconscious colleagues.
The dagger lights up.
Poof!
Easily slit his throat.
There was no struggle and no pain.
These comatose crew members would never have thought that the end of their life on the ocean would not be a shipwreck, but an ordinary banquet.
by colleagues...
Poof!
Kill.
boom!
The corpses were abandoned like worn-out shoes.
Blood flowed, soaking the dark deck.
Time seems to jump.
The blood quickly coagulated and turned black, and countless algae grew wantonly around the walls and floors. The executioners disappeared like bubbles, leaving only corpses on the ground piled in the banquet hall.
Gao Yi came back to his senses and found that he had returned to reality.
What stands in front of you is the mist-shrouded banquet hall, but it is no longer the glory of yesterday. The food is rotten, the wine is condensed, and hundreds of corpses are piled on the ground.
Benedict...
Suddenly, a body moved.
It's a slight tremor.
"Are you going to fake the corpse?"
Gao Yi looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw a large amount of mist surging, and then like a whale sucking water, it continued to pour in from the mouths and noses of the corpses.
Tuk-tuk-tuk!
The waists of these corpses were sharply raised like bows, as if they had souls. They stood upright from the ground, looked at Gao Yi, and roared with a dry voice: "s——ailors!"
It means "sailor".
...It's calling for its companions!
More corpses opened their eyes and responded in unison - "obeytheordersofthekingdom."
The barcarolle is sung again!
Only this time, the people who sang it have become dead. The once heroic and unrestrained spirit is no longer there, replaced by indelible resentment and murderous intent.
The mist poured into the corpses, causing them to stand up from the ground, staring at Gao Yi with a pair of empty eyes, full of hatred, as if they had seen the executioner who killed them.
"These fog-like things turn out to be ghost spirits!"
Gao Yi stepped back, but the corpses obviously didn't want to give him a chance. They found the weapons they had used in life from their waists and surrounded him from all directions.
…
Upper deck.
After some thought, Ma Tian still issued the order to continue exploring.
He came to fight, and no matter the situation or identity, he could not be allowed to turn back halfway because of some speculations. Even if there was real danger, he had to find out how many noses and eyes he had.
"Horse group!"
In the channel, a captain's voice suddenly came: "The situation in the cabin has changed, and the fog has suddenly begun to shrink!"
On the stairs, the captain ordered the team members to retreat upwards with a vigilant look. Looking at the mist shrinking downwards like an ebbing tide, he said in a deep voice: "There are still sounds coming from inside. There seem to be dozens of people... They are singing!"
"Team leader!"
At this time, a team member under the direct leadership of Ma Tian quickly stepped forward and said anxiously: "The psychic detection instrument that had been motionless before suddenly had a violent reaction!"
"Perhaps our intrusion woke up those things in the cabin!"
"Back up, back to the upper deck!"
Ma Tian was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, spoke into the channel, and kept repeating: "All teams, return to the upper deck! Temporarily guard the passages of all stairs, and be ready to retreat at any time!"
boom!
--boom!
Outside the captain's room, the sentry team member turned his head and looked at the door that was tied up with iron chains, and his expression changed drastically.
The door was hit repeatedly by a strong force from inside, almost crumbling.
"Woo——"
The gasp that erupted from the chest instantly spread throughout the ship.
"traitor!"
Then the roar was followed by an explosion, as loud as thunder: "Treacherous jackal!"
"All of you must pay the price for this!"
boom!
The entire captain's room collapsed, and the figure with a dagger stuck in his back staggered out of the smoke and pulled out the command sword from his waist.
"All sailors blessed by the glory of the sun, wake up!"
