Chapter 42 42. Fishing Net

Roy was startled by the scaly arm.

He moved closer quietly, trying to push away the celery leaves in the frame to see what they were.

But at the moment when he was stirring the celery leaves, Roy's hand suddenly stopped and forced himself to turn around.

Because under the illumination of the divine gleam, he had clearly seen what was behind the shelves... That was the person he least wanted to see. Maybe he couldn't be called a human.

The Naga killer we saw in the morning was actually hiding in the deepest part of the two rows of shelves.

Roy was really worried that he would suddenly jump out and stab himself in the back.

However, he didn't seem to make any movements, not even moving his eyes. If it weren't for the slight undulation of the gills on the back of his cheeks, Roy just felt like he wasn't breathing at all.

He's like a... salted fish leaning on the shelf.

Could it be that he is disguising himself as a salted fish?

He is like the stupid emperor in The Emperor's New Clothes, who has been exposed to the light but has no idea.

And I firmly believe that others will not be able to see it...

Roy calmly moved the glimmer of light away. He tried to make himself look normal. When he looked over, it was as if he was seeing shelves full of vegetables...

As the glimmer of light in Roy's hand slowly moved away, the shelves and Janna Killer merged into the darkness again.

Without the sacred gleam illuminating that place, it is really impossible to see the Naga Killer...

Roy turned around and realized that this Naga killer still had some concealment methods.

But under the low-light lighting technique, he had nowhere to hide, but he didn't know it, and Roy pretended not to see it...

At this moment, Roy felt that his heart was beating so hard that it was about to be squeezed out of his throat.

He didn't want to eliminate potential threats for the sailors on the ship, so he walked back calmly.

Jasper was still standing there, thinking about what kind of reason he had to find to move the storage room to the oar room on the lower level. When he saw Roy walking over with a ball of light, he immediately opened his eyes wide and shouted

A voice:

"Oh, Roy, it's right here, don't let him get away..."

Roy felt that Jasper would become a very good actor if he went to the opera house.

When he yelled into the air, the emotion he showed was very full.

When he turned around, Jasper had already rushed out from his side, and he followed closely behind Jasper, carrying that sacred glimmer of light...

…

The door to the storage room was opened, making a dull sound.

Naga Killer quickly hid his body in the shadow of the corner of the shelf.

Then two people walked in outside the door, and then he realized that he had made a mistake. They should be an elf and a human.

Moreover, he had seen that young human being in the morning, the young man who accidentally escaped.

It seemed that there was nothing wrong with catching him. The Naga killer stared at Roy. He was indeed a member of the ship, and he was also the weakest one.

I have long guessed that he is not a good person. When I took action this morning, I should have been more ruthless...

Seeing Roy and his companions muttering, the Naga Killer considered that it was not convenient for him to take action against the two of them.

Once discovered, his infiltration plan will be in vain...

In addition, there were two sailors guarding the door. He could clearly feel the smell of blood on the bodies of the two sailors outside the door, which made him hide in the storage room and not dare to act rashly.

Then he saw Roy walking towards him holding a lamp, but when he was almost in front of him, he suddenly turned around and passed by.

As long as Roy takes another step closer, even if the Naga Killer is hiding in a dark corner, his feet will inevitably step on the Naga Killer's coiled tail fin.

When the time came, he couldn't hide even if he wanted to, so the Janna killer was ready to stab the dagger directly into his chest.

For him, at this time...kill one and earn one!

Unfortunately, just one step away from Naga Killer, Roy suddenly turned around and walked back...

His elf companion was also a little confused and looked like a fool when he first came in.

At this moment, he actually started running in the narrow storage room and yelled inexplicably.

Naga Killer thought he had been discovered by those two people, but then he discovered that this was not the case at all...

…

In the storage room, Roy and Jasper ran out one after another. When they were about to reach the door, Jasper suddenly stopped, holding a magic book and reciting a short prayer.

Suddenly, a ray of holy light fell from the roof, like a cone-shaped light beam shining on the wooden floor.

The second officer who was guarding the door of the storage room turned around and looked inside. He saw a beam of light exuding a sacred aura, but he did not see the ghost covered by the beam.

At this time, Jasper knelt on one knee, put one hand on the floor, and asked Roy:

"How did it get downstairs?"

Roy also took back the glimmer of light, walked to Jasper's side, and asked casually: "What should we do?"

"Follow me, are there stairs here?" Jasper asked decisively.

The second mate's burly body almost blocked the door of the storage room. He bent down and poked his bald head in...

"What trouble are you in?"

Jasper pointed to the beam of light that had not completely dissipated and said to the second officer:

"We just saw a resentful spirit, but it has already developed intelligence. When it saw us, it ran away quickly and escaped below the deck..."

The second mate glanced at the two men suspiciously before saying:

"Come with me!"

He opened the door to the storage room and stood in the narrow corridor.

The crew member who was following the second officer stood in front of the two men, sandwiching them again...

Roy guessed that he didn't want to beat the vegetables in the storage room to pieces during the fight, so he agreed to Jasper's proposal and agreed that the two of them would chase the wraith down below.

…

Just when a group of people passed by the kitchen, the head chef, who was directing his men to work in the kitchen, ran out, blocked the corridor, and asked the second officer unceremoniously.

Roy couldn't understand what they were saying, but he felt that the second mate was so tall and strong, and he was very polite in front of the chef.

Probably the head chef was in a good mood when he heard that the evil spirit had escaped, and he praised the second mate very much...

The stairs leading below the deck are in the center of the first floor of the ship.

It extends diagonally from here and does not take up much space in the kitchen.

The stairs here are relatively worn. In addition to some scratches, there are traces of corrosion on the walls, the paint is also tattered, and there is even some mold.

The walls on both sides are also mottled, and you can't tell what kind of paint they were painted on. They are just dark, and there is even a layer of black mud stains in areas that are often touched.

Walking down the stairs, here are the crew cabins, one next to the other, very dense.

The light in this corridor is a bit dark, and there are no lights on the walls.

Roy walked in with a dim light, and saw that in addition to some chores, there were also a few smelly shoes lying in the corridor, making it almost impossible to stay.

The second officer turned a blind eye and stepped on the debris. After walking along the corridor for a while, a corner appeared in front of him.

Push this door open and you will arrive at the oar room on the left side of the crew living area.

The oar room on the right is opposite the crew cabin, which is close to the pier. If he can go to that room, Roy plans to jump directly from the window to the pier. Anyway, the height of more than four meters is not too high, so jump

At most, the leg will be broken.

But the two men were led by the second mate into the oar room on the left side, which side of the ship faces the sea...

If you jump off the ship, you have to jump into the sea. Although it is safer, you need to swim back to the port. If you are caught by them during this period...

Roy didn't dare to think about it.

The room is long and narrow, like a big shop. The wooden paddles, which are more than ten meters long, are hung on the side of the roof with paddling positions. Each paddle has about eight seats. It looks like eight.

The crew member has an oar, and there are actually some luggage placed here. It seems that there are crew members living here as well.

But now the room is empty...

Under the shimmering sacred light in Roy's hand, there were actually more than a dozen resentful spirits floating in the room.

Almost all the resentful spirits here have been completely lost, just floating motionless in the room.

The soul fire on their bodies may be strong or weak. When Roy passed by these resentful spirits, just a glimmer of the power of the holy light completely extinguished the soul fire on a lost soul.

Then it disappeared into the air like a wisp of smoke without any struggle, and the blue soul was freed from the shackles of resentment and took shape under the sacred gleam.

This soul that had lost all memory flew towards the sky without any nostalgia, and disappeared on the ceiling of the cabin in the blink of an eye.
