Qin Zhibo stared carefully at the identity information floating above Cheng Shi's head.
Although Chengshi had always dressed as a woman in the past, in Qin Zhibo's eyes, the gender column was all male.
But this time...
Just as he was thinking, ripples appeared on the water again.
Qin Zhibo's ears trembled and he quickly turned his head to look.
Under the water, countless huge black rolling pieces of meat emerged like black clouds, wrapping the body of the black goat cub.
Bathed in chunks of meat, the gap in the body of the black goat cub that was punctured by the ray gun is healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
What's this?
Qin Zhibo's eyes widened. A large number of black cloud-like pieces of meat suddenly appeared in the narrow corridor. There were a large number of tentacles on the meat pieces and a huge mouth protruding outward.
I even felt something moving under my feet...
Only then did Qin Zhibo realize that he had stepped into some kind of monster-making field from the beginning.
The entire part of the ship that was submerged in the sea has been parasitized by monsters!
This new monster has very similar physical characteristics to the black goat cub, including tentacles and mouths.
It's just that this monster has no fixed shape. The huge lump of flesh rolling like a black cloud is his body.
His name is, the Supreme Mother Goddess—Shubh Nicholas!
Qin Zhibo's expression was completely stunned, his eyes widened as he stared at the pieces of meat that were constantly flooding in the corridor, and his willpower level was also rapidly declining.
When was the summoning successful?
Yashiro Yoshito and the others should have no chance to summon Shub Nicholas...
The young black goat is the human agent of the Supreme Mother Goddess and the most important medium for summoning the Supreme Mother Goddess.
But I should have stopped the summoning ritual in time...
Has anyone else completed the ritual?
At this moment, the hull suddenly trembled violently, and the tilting speed of the entire ship suddenly accelerated.
This shows that the amount of water in the ship has reached a critical point, and the "Aphrodite" will completely sink into the sea within a minute!
Qin Zhibo reacted immediately, put Chengshi on his shoulders, and moved towards the infirmary.
And this action also alarmed the pieces of meat that were spreading in the corridor.
As if they had found an attack target, they stretched out countless tentacles and chased in Qin Zhibo's direction.
Behind, there are a large number of black clouds and pieces of meat wrapped around a large amount of sea water, rolling like a tsunami.
Qin Zhibo carried Cheng Shi on his shoulders and rushed into the infirmary, closing the door behind him.
This monster is not afraid of sea water at all, and even if it jumps into the sea, it cannot ensure its escape.
So Qin Zhibo took out the briefcase again and took out two plastic bombs.
These two plastic bombs were dismantled in the power distribution room and installed by Hiroshi Kusaka to carry out the murder plan.
He adjusted the bomb's countdown timer to 30 seconds and stuck it on the infirmary door.
As soon as the bomb was attached, the reinforced door of the infirmary made a loud bang and was knocked out of shape.
Bang!
There was another loud noise, and a 10cm hole was opened in the door frame of the reinforced door.
Terrifying black tentacles penetrated from the opening and extended in the direction of Qin Zhibo like earthworms.
Qin Zhibo here had already taken off his windbreaker, tied himself and Cheng Shi's waist together with a [Shroud], then jumped out of the window and jumped into the sea.
The tentacle seemed to have eyes, and quickly followed it out of the window, chasing the two people who fell towards the sea.
The speed of the tentacles was even faster than the speed of falling, and it was about to catch up from behind. The countdown of the bomb happened to reach zero at this moment.
boom!
The bomb exploded instantly, releasing a huge amount of light and heat, engulfing the tentacles in the corridor together with black clouds of flesh.
On the sea, Conan and others were nervously looking at the "Aphrodite" that was leaning 45° on the water on the life raft.
The entire ship has reached the critical point, but still no one can escape.
Just as everyone was waiting anxiously, there was an explosion from the high-rise bow of the ship, and the sudden burst of fire attracted everyone's attention.
"What is that?"
"explode?"
Conan stared blankly at the location of the explosion, because in the fierce firelight, he vaguely saw something unexplainable.
What is that?
Wires?
No, the wires can't move like that...
However, this strange scene did not last long.
As the tail of the cruise ship was completely inserted into the sea, the balance of the entire cruise ship was completely broken.
A huge whirlpool with a diameter of over a hundred meters formed in the dark sea, completely engulfing the "Aphrodite".
The goddess "Aphrodite" was born from the foam and eventually died in the sea.
…
In the Pacific Ocean, the warning lights on the lifeboats are like solitary lamps, lighting up the dark sea.
The luxury cruise ship that had been singing and dancing just two hours ago sank in front of our eyes, and everyone felt an indescribable heaviness in their hearts.
Mouri Kogoro stood on the edge of the life raft, staring blankly at the gradually calming sea, with an extremely solemn expression on his face.
It is impossible to survive being swept into the sea by such a whirlpool...
But Conan was still scanning the sea area with the telescope function of his black-tech glasses, gritting his teeth and still refusing to give up.
Impossible!
That man can definitely create miracles!
It is absolutely impossible for him to die!
However, there was no trace of any living thing on the calm sea. Everything about the "Aphrodite" seemed to have been completely wiped out by the hand of God, leaving no trace.
Even those things that might have floated up were swept by the huge vortex and sank to the bottom of the sea forever.
In other lifeboats, some passengers, in addition to feeling a little heavy and shocked by the sight of the cruise ship sinking, felt more grateful to have survived the disaster.
Most passengers had no other losses besides losing their luggage.
However, everyone's ticket includes a high-cost insurance, which can compensate for accidents, so there is no loss of property.
Especially the children, under the comfort of their parents, did not realize that this was a terrible disaster and thought it was all just a game.
A little girl with twin ponytails leaned half of her body out of the lifeboat, holding the edge of the lifeboat with her hands, staring curiously at the dark water.
In the originally calm sea water, a black shadow emerged from the depths and became increasingly clear.
The little girl's expression was startled and she became even more curious.
The black shadow poked out from the sea water, a slender black tentacle.
Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Seeing this unknown and novel creature, the little girl's eyes became more curious and she actively leaned her head towards the tentacles.
Those innocent pupils were less than 10cm away from the black tentacles.
"Kyoko! What are you doing?"
The mother sitting next to her noticed something strange about her child and shouted quickly.
"Mom, there is something in the water..."
The girl with twin tails named Jingzi pointed to the sea, turned to her mother and said.
The mother frowned, leaned over, and looked in the direction her daughter was pointing.
But there was nothing there, but there were circles of ripples on the water, as if something in the water had just been disturbed.
"Maybe it's a sea fish or something... Jingzi, don't get so close to the water, I'm worried."
"Yes, Mom."
The little girl sat back down beside her mother and continued to wait for rescue.
But at the rear of the lifeboat, a black tentacle has quietly climbed onto the orange rubber surface...
From a higher bird's-eye view, on the sea where all the lifeboats are staying, an extremely huge black shadow is gradually rising from the bottom of the sea, becoming more and more real.
…
On the giant ship, the blond woman continued to look at the sea in front of her indifferently.
Although the "Aphrodite" sank, the plan was not affected.
These hundreds of human lives will eventually become sacrifices to the Supreme Mother Goddess.
At this moment, she seemed to feel something in her heart, and her eyes suddenly froze.
She hesitated for a few seconds, and then hurriedly shouted to the man in black standing by.
"Give me the telescope!"
The man in black was stunned for a moment and handed the binoculars to the woman's hand.
The woman is holding a high-tech telescope. There is no need to manually adjust the focus. The chip inside automatically sharpens the location she wants to see.
I saw a girl with brown hair sticking her head out of a lifeboat floating on the sea, shouting at the top of her lungs at the sea.
The woman frowned, recognizing the girl's identity.
Then she quickly turned to face the ceremony behind her and ordered: "Stop the ceremony immediately!"
The six men in black robes around the magic circle were startled and turned to look at her in confusion.
The man in black also stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Ms. Shirley, the ceremony has already begun. If it ends now, I'm afraid..."
"It doesn't matter. Our goal has been achieved. Even if we don't complete the entire sacrifice, it will be enough."
"But..." the man in black looked troubled, "'that adult's request is not to leave a single person alive..."
The woman turned her head, revealing a fierce look under her shiny spectacles.
"I am the person in charge of this ship. I don't need you to remind me what to do."
"Do as I say, and if 'that lord' wants to pursue it, I will bear the responsibility."
The man in black's eyes moved slightly, and under the woman's more powerful and compelling eyes, his straight shoulders relaxed slightly.
He turned around and motioned to the men in black robes behind him, and everyone lowered their hands.
As the input of magic power stopped, the light of the magic circle immediately went out, and the stone altar returned to calm.
However, the blood that has poured out of the stone altar cannot be taken back, because this is real blood.
Seeing that the magic ceremony had ended, the woman turned her head and continued to look at the sea.
…
"ah--!"
On the lifeboat, Hui Yuan Ai screamed at the sea.
It's a pity that the ruthless sea water will not respond to her prayers. Only the people on the boat feel uncomfortable hearing this sound.
Mao Lilan shed tears and hugged Hui Yuan Ai's young body from behind, wanting to give this painful child as much comfort as possible.
Yuanzi and Sanxiaozhi also had tears streaming from the corners of their eyes, and they looked at Haiyuan Ai silently.
They all knew what it meant when the "Aphrodite" sank completely.
It means that the life that once existed is gone forever.
Unexpectedly, the scene on the lifeboat would be the final farewell to Chengshi.
On the life raft, Conan heard the roar from behind, and also heard the desperate voice of Haiyuan Ai.
hateful!
Conan gritted his teeth and continued to search the sea.
He hasn't given up yet.
He didn't believe that the man could die so easily.
Although this situation is absolutely impossible for ordinary people to survive, he is Qin Zhibo who has created miracles again and again!
Please!
Let’s create a miracle again!
Conan glanced at the sea nervously, and suddenly, Mouri Kogoro next to him spoke.
"What seems to be over there?"
"Uncle! Where!"
"there……"
Conan looked in the direction pointed by Kogoro Mouri and saw a bulge floating on the sea.
Although I can't see exactly what it is, it was just caught in the whirlpool. If there's anything still floating there, it must have just risen from the water.
"Hurry over there, maybe it's Uncle Qin!"
When Mouri Kogoro heard this, he immediately picked up the oar, and Kaito Wataru took control of one side respectively, and rowed quickly in that direction.
When the boat slowly approached, I picked up a flashlight and looked at it, and found that it was indeed Qin Zhibo.
Qin Zhibo was seen with Cheng Shi tied in front of his body, his hands gently swaying on the water, floating on the water with minimal effort.
"Qin Zhibo!"
Mouri Kogoro and Kaito Wataru worked together to pull the two people from the water to the life raft.
At this time, Qin Zhibo had completely lost his strength. He had only been on the boat for two seconds when he was so tired that he closed his eyes.
Conan looked at Qin Zhibo and finally breathed a sigh of relief, with a knowing smile on his lips.
As expected of you!
…
The storm at sea gradually subsided until about 3 o'clock in the morning.
At 4 o'clock in the morning, three Coast Guard ships arrived belatedly.
The rescue operation lasted for about two hours, and finally all the victims were rescued on board.
After a preliminary head count, it was confirmed that the number of people missing in the shipwreck was 9, all of whom were staff on the ship, including deputy captain Ize.
Including Yashiro Takae, Yashiro Takae, who died before the shipwreck occurred, there are 11 people.
This number is far less than the 800 people on the entire ship.
Qin Zhibo was wrapped in a blanket, leaning on the guardrail with his back and a weak smile on his lips.
Although the reward for this main mission is average, only 10,000 general proficiency points, it is no less dangerous than those 30,000 missions.
If I didn't have an [Underwater Breathing Valve] in my inventory, it would really be impossible to swim up.
However, although the mission was completed, the truth of the matter was not completely clear.
"What? There were no ships around that sea area at that time?"
"Yes……"
On the deck, a Coast Guard crewman was briefing Captain Kaito Wataru on the situation, "We had contacted all ships at that time, but it was confirmed that no ships were near that area of water, and no ships passed through there."
