Chapter 1976: Ghost Ship Appears

A week after the encounter with the giant plesiosaur, the voyage of the Narwhal went smoothly, and the Coral followed and tracked without any accident.
Until the last day of November, when the sea was stained by the setting sun, at a fiery red twilight, Qiao An monitored the Narwhal through the
remote mirror
as usual, and accidentally noticed a strange mist floating in the southwest. .
The visibility on the sea is not bad, and the weather is good. According to common sense, fog is unlikely to appear, and even if there is fog, it should be blown away by the sea breeze immediately.
However, what is puzzling is that the mist that floats on the surface of the sea does not disperse under the invasion of wind and waves, and has a tendency to gradually expand.
Qiao An felt strange as he watched, and quickly opened the "Mist Horizon" attached to the "Prosthetic Eye". Through the thick fog, he saw the shadow of a big ship looming in the depths of the fog.
Judging from the silhouette of the ship's shadow, it should be an old three-masted sailing ship, which is about two hundred feet long from head to tail, which is smaller than the Narwhal, but much larger than the Coral on which Joan and the others ride. .
Why does this sailing ship sail under the cover of dense fog, as if in a dream?
With confusion, Qiao An adjusted the viewing angle of the "remote mirror" and zoomed in to look at the mysterious sailing ship, only to find that the deck was empty, and no one was visible in the bridge. The whole ship had no breath of life, but diffused. With strong negative energy, like a ghost ship sailing on the Styx.
Qiao An couldn't help but burst into a cold sweat, and quickly greeted Hailar and Zion.
The three hurried over and watched the picture presented in the "picture mirror".
"It's the Herringhorn!" Herrard's voice trembled with excitement when she first saw the misty sailboat. "There is a model ship of Herringhorn in her mother's bedroom, zoom in. From now on, it will look exactly like the sailing boat in the mirror! Also, on the jib hanging from the rear mast, there is a big red letter'G' painted on it, which is the initials of our Green family's last name! This is definitely me Father’s boat!"
Qiao An took the girl's trembling hand and tried to calm her down.
At this time, the crew on the Narwhal also noticed the strange thick fog in front of the channel and hurriedly sounded the siren.
After hearing the news, Francis Messinger boarded the balcony of the bridge, observed the dense fog with a telescope, and then hurried back to the room. When he returned to the balcony, he followed Am Frody.
The halfling warlock held high the "weather staff" and created a gale out of thin air, blowing away the mist slightly, and the silhouette of the sailboat hidden in the thick fog.
"Hellinghorn!"
Both Mesinger and Frody changed their faces in an instant, and called out the name of the sailing boat in unison.
However, in the next moment, the sailing ship that they sank to the bottom of the sea 18 years ago seemed to be frightened, the outline quickly became blurred, and disappeared into the depths of thick fog in an instant.
"Quickly chase! Chase me!" Mesinger snarled and snarled against the balcony guardrail, "Never let go of that ‘ghost ship’!"
The "Narwhal" was fully powered, and accompanied by the roar of the Mojo steam turbine, the armored battleship rushed into the dense fog with its head up, as if to crush the looming sailing ship to pieces.
However, the "ghost ship" is the "ghost ship". Despite the rampage of the armored battleship, Frody kept waving his staff and calling for the wind to blow away the dense fog, but the "Heringhorn" was never seen.
Such a huge sailboat disappeared from everyone's eyes, like a mirage.
Qiao An, Hailar, Audrey, and Holden surrounded the "remote mirror", staring at the empty mirror with four pairs of eyes, they couldn't help but stare at each other.
Unless the companions around him are all witnesses, they can testify to what they have just seen. They simply suspect that the so-called "Heringhorn" is just an illusion that only exists in their minds.
The Messinger and others on the Narwhal could not believe that what they had just experienced was just an illusion, and they carefully searched the sea where the Herlinghorn had just disappeared.
At the same time, Frody performed "exploration" on the ship, trying to track down the ghost ship that had a glimpse of it.
Through Fania’s eyes, Joan saw the halfling warlock playing with the crystal ball in the cabin through the crack of the door. At first, he was a little worried that he could successfully detect the whereabouts of the ghost ship. However, Frody tossed for almost an hour, and the crystal ball was full of hair. It didn't show up, so I had to give up casting the spell.
This result made Qiao An feel quite confused while gloating over misfortune, so he simply tried it himself.
Facts proved that Am Frodi’s failure was not accidental, and Joan was also unable to use prophecy spells such as
exploration
or
item location
to pinpoint the specific location of the
Helinhorn
.
There are only two possibilities for this result.
Either the "Herlinhorn" does not exist at all, from the "Narwhal" to the "Polar", everyone on the two ships sees an illusion, and things that do not exist are of course impossible to detect; or "Herlin "Horn" is actually a "magic ship", the entire hull is under the cover of "evasion detection" or "mage's room" and other protective spells, blocking investigation attempts from outside.
The former possibility is too unimaginable, and Qiao An is more inclined to think that it is the latter.
However, this creates a new problem.
Hylar does not remember her mother talking about the "Hellinghorn" enchanted with the spell to evade detection. The real "Hellinghorn" does not have the magical ability to emit thick fog and disappear out of thin air, which can not help but produce her. One question: Although the sailboat I am tracking looks exactly the same as the Hullinghorn, is it really the ship that sank into the sea 18 years ago?
If the answer is yes, the "Hellinghorn", which has been immersed in sea water for 18 years, is too tidy, and there is no trace of the passage of time and sea erosion.
Qiao An felt that Hailar's suspicion was reasonable, but there was too little information about the fleeting ghost ship, and under the cover of many doubts, it was impossible to draw any reliable conclusions.
After encountering the ghost ship, the voyage of the Narwhal was temporarily put on hold.
Mezinger ordered his men to drive a small boat to search around, and he also sent people to dive into the bottom of the sea, assuming that he would find the "Heringhorn" at the expense of digging three feet.
The Narwhal was stuck, and the Coral did not dare to chase too close. Joan and the others discussed it, and finally decided to accept Captain Odysseus’s suggestion, turn the helm to the west and head 30 nautical miles away. The Sierra Island stopped for a while and went ashore to add fresh water.
