Compared with the number of passengers on board when arriving at Skeleton Bay, when the Queen of Ice left Skull Bay, the number of people on board increased a lot, and finally filled most of the vacant cabins on board.
These new passengers did not exist in advance, but joined temporarily, and the reason was that the miracle star sank.
As a representative of the highest technology in the shipbuilding industry, the miracle star, a steel giant ship, has carried the expectations of countless people, and today the collapse of expectations has also caused an avalanche-like decline in people's confidence in steel ships.
Now, many visitors to Skeleton Bay have distrusted the steel steam ship. Even if the majority of Skull Bay steam ships are still mixed with wood and steel, it is impossible to bring any trust to these tourists. Instead, it is the Ice Queen. This fully sail-powered vessel has been favored by them.
For this reason, they did not hesitate to change the itinerary, spent high prices, bought ferry tickets, and also had to take the Ice Queen to leave Skeleton Bay.
Because most of these newly joined people are temporarily changing their itinerary, all the money they originally planned to spend in Skull Bay is retained, so that some of the recreation rooms that were idle before the ship began to come in handy, and almost the vast majority of passengers left I came to this entertainment room after my cabin. After all, there are not many places on the ship where they can consume.
Leo didn’t want to come here. He preferred to stay in the cabin to study the note, but old Belen found him after sailing, pulled him out of the room, and took him to the entertainment room because he found several The treasure hunter who planted seeds on Big Nose Island that day also boarded the Snow Queen.
Although the matter of Big Nose Island has passed, Leo has no plans to intervene in life learning, but even then he is still curious about the process of the change of the body of the person who planted the seed, without adversely affecting him It is helpful for him to understand the evolution of life by secretly observing the changes in these people.
Therefore, Leo did not refuse, temporarily put down the study of that note, and the old Belem came to the entertainment room.
The entertainment room is a bit noisy, most of the people are talking about the Miracle Star, only a small part of the game is focused on the game, which treasure hunters are looking at the chips on the table at the moment, They seem to have good luck and have won a lot.
Leo and Elder Belen did not gather at the gaming table, but stayed at the bar not far from the gaming table. While drinking, they watched the ongoing game on the table there.
"Which guys have a problem." After watching a few games on the table, the old Belem suddenly said.
Leo did not respond to the discovery of Old Belem, nor did he intend to ask. Since he came in here, he knew there was a problem since the first game on the table.
It's just that he didn't see it from the card, but from the assimilated seed of these people.
On the seeds in the brains of those people, Leo sensed a very weak psionic energy, and the psionic energy of several people fluctuated almost uniformly, and at the beginning of the hand, the psionic energy in the seeds of several people was just like Like some kind of signal communication device, it continuously emits psionic energy with obvious signatures, and then the few people cooperate with each other on the hand, and a little bit of the opponent’s good cards are eliminated, and the final hand is obtained. victory.
Because several people are always looking at the cards in their hands, and have not made any actions that are suspected of secret code, so the dealer on board who holds the game can only think that they are lucky, and they can always get what they want. Of cards.
But this is only temporary. Now these people have drawn the attention of the director in charge of the entertainment room on board, and there is already a preliminary guess that several people can continue to win the game.
Although the games are organized by passengers spontaneously, they only provide dealers and venues, and winning or losing will not cause them any loss of profits. However, if these people are allowed to continue to win in this way, they will definitely cause some of them to be uncommon. To trouble.
So just now the supervisor sent people to the computer room to turn on the interference device there.
Sure enough, when the jamming device was turned on, the connection between the few people through the seed energy was immediately cut off, and the momentum of the three people's winning money was immediately contained. It's just that they didn't lose immediately, their own skills and some tacit cooperation made them barely able to maintain a winning rate without losing.
Although these people did not know how their moves failed, they also knew what to do when they were good. After waiting for a few more people to go to the table, they withdrew them one after another, and pretended not to know. Each found a pile of people and inserted into the conversation.
For treasure hunters, connections are very important. This is not only related to their sources, but also whether the goods they get can be sold smoothly, and how to sell directly to customers is more than selling to middlemen. Cost-effective.
The people who can afford the Ice Queen are non-rich and expensive. They are potential customers of these treasure hunters. They spend a lot of money and buy ferry tickets. Maybe they want to take this long sea trip and make a few friends. Powerful people who can afford big prices.
"They must be weird!" At this time, the old Belen suddenly pointed his at one of the treasure hunters and said: "Did you see the old man? He is the steel tycoon Catley of the Kingdom of Marais. Bobli, his steel group was previously the largest steel manufacturer in the Kingdom of Marais. Although his steel group was forcibly spun off due to some changes, he was no longer allowed to operate the steel industry, but he was in Marais. The steel industry in the Kingdom of Sri Lanka, and even the entire steel industry of Vinylon, has a right to speak. There must be a problem with that guy approaching him."
Because of the suspicion in his heart, the old Belem was full of suspicion about the actions, words and deeds of these treasure hunters who were planted with seeds, and kept thinking about the bad things.
Leo did not defend the treasure hunters. He could tell from the details of the secret exchanges of those people. They must have a purpose to get close to those people, but this purpose is obviously very much the purpose of the old Belem. difference.
Leo is more concerned about the changes in the bodies of these people at this moment. Just after they stopped using the power contained in the seeds, the power emitted by the seeds did not subside, but slowly changed their bodies. Only two days have passed However, some parts of their bodies have grown a little extra peripheral nerves, and they will grow an extra nervous system just like the residents of Big Nose Island.
"Huh?" Just when Leo checked these people's bodies through the spiritual network, his heart or soul suddenly had a little inexplicable panic, and he felt a trace of mysterious pressure on his body.
After a closer inspection, he found that the mysterious pressure that made him strange didn't come from anyone in the entertainment room, nor from anyone on the ship, but from the ocean outside the ship.
After discovering this, Leo immediately stood up, walked out of the recreation room, came to the deck, and looked over at the ocean outside, because it was daytime, and the weather was good, Leo could see far away, Just on the endless sea level, I can't see any ships, and naturally I can't see any existence that can cause him to feel this abnormal feeling.
"Are you in the sea?" Leo did not find any clues on the surface of the sea and set his eyes on the sea level, but within the coverage of his spiritual net, he did not find any abnormalities, and ordinary sight could not Barrier to penetrate sea water.
So he turned on his vision and looked towards the ocean.
However, when he looked at the ocean with his spiritual vision, the previous day was still under the scorching sun and the cloudless sky, but now it became dark in the blink of an eye, and the people around him disappeared at the moment, leaving only He had to stand alone on the deck of the ship and watch the ocean ahead.
In the depths of the ocean in his eyes, it is no longer some ordinary marine creatures, but a huge black shadow, a black shadow that is covered by the surrounding area of the Snow Queen, and this black shadow is Leo’s body. The source of mysterious pressure.
"The corpse collector." Leo quickly recognized who the black shadow in the water was, and also felt a little puzzled. The corpse collector, a demigod close to Omega-class higher living bodies, has been following since the town of Lake Town in the dream world. He even followed the special subspace of Yam Island between the past, the present and the future, and now he seems to have followed the Velon world again. Leo is really curious about what is so attractive to him, maybe this is also what he will The reason for being imprinted by various gods.
Although the corpse recipient looks in the ocean under the boat, it seems that if he can exert a little force, he can overturn the boat, let Leo fall into the water, and then catch Leo, but Leo is actually very clear, he is actually It is in a subspace, separated from the Velon world by a spatial dimension, but now it is just a special method to project the body into the Velon world.
When Leo discovered this, the awe in his heart disappeared, and he leaned on the ship's side like a provocation, and then took out some of the food he put in the storage space to prepare for the occasional need, like a funny fish. The same was crushed and thrown into the sea, and his provocative emotion was deliberately released into the sea.
The projection of the corpse recipient instantly understood Leo's provocative behavior, and immediately became extremely angry. The huge black shadow in the sea was shaking rapidly, changing its shape, and even some tentacle-like body edges forcibly penetrated from the sea water. Attempt to attack Leo, but the result is that these tentacles just broke out of the sea, they were immediately broken by an invisible force, and were assimilated by the surrounding world.
Seeing this scene, Leo somehow came up with a bold idea in his mind. He saw that while continuing to provoke the corpse taker, he also mobilized the power of the Poseidon's imprint in his body and instantly integrated his spirit into the ocean.
Although Leo can’t control any oceanic power through this seal of Poseidon, he can integrate into the ocean and use the power of the ocean to perceive all the details of the power within the influence of the seal, which naturally includes the corpse that was scattered by the power of the world. The projection of the remaining breath of power.
Just when Leo sensed that there is an unknown power breath in the ocean that is different from the various forces of the Velon world, this breath of power, like receiving some kind of call, instantly entered Leo in the spirit of Leo. In the body, condensed into a spiritual imprint, a spiritual imprint belonging to the corpse collector.
This change was completely beyond Leo's expectations. He just wanted to sense the details of the power of this corpse collector so that he could be prepared for it when faced with it again in the future, so as not to be in a hurry. If he is lucky, he will be able to find out the weakness of the corpse collector from this breath of strength, and he may be able to fight it back in the future.
But he could not have imagined that the residual power of the assassin, who should have been dispelled by the power of the world and assimilated, would enter his body and condense into a spiritual imprint.
Although the accident happened suddenly, Leo was caught off guard, but he instinctively responded with the fastest speed, according to the method groped by previous research to control the imprint of the corpse condensed in the body.
Perhaps it is because the imprint of the gods is rootless duckweed and there is no follow-up support, or it may be the joint suppression of other imprints of the spirits in his body. In short, he is completely in control of the immortal imprint of the corpse collector.
The complete control mentioned here is not casually talked about, it is really completely mastered, because the secret about this mark is fully revealed to him at the moment he controls, and the corpse collector has no secrets in front of him. .
At the moment when Leo mastered the sign of the corpse taker, the image of the corpse taker in the ocean sensed something, no longer just a tentative attempt to rush into the world of Velon~EbookFREE.me~ Full impact Trying to cross the barrier of the world.
Although it is just a shadow that changes shape drastically, anyone who can see this scene can feel the anxiety and panic of the shadow.
It is a pity that he is not a deity in the Velon world, nor a real deity. Even if he is a real deity in the face of the power of a world, he cannot make any resistance. The crazy action just accelerated the demise of the projection.
While the power of the world disperses the projection, assimilating the power of the corpse collector, there are also some scattered forces scattered in the surrounding ocean, and because of the seal of the sea god, it flows to Leo and to the corpse collector in Leo's body. Imprint.
With the influx of more and more power, the imprint of the corpse collector became more and more solid, no longer the vague state at the beginning, and began to move closer to the imprint of the gods such as the net weaver.
And this is not the final change. As the imprint of the corpse collector becomes more and more staring, the secrets contained in the corpse collector become more and more clear, but also because of the confusion generated by these secrets, more and more Leo was somewhat disappointed that he did not find out why he attracted the attention of those gods, and injected a mark into his body.
