Magus Tech

Late at night continues.

On the deck of a giant wheel like a coffin, the missing Shirley, Parker, Darnell, and the third-level apprentice Gas, who should have been on the deck, four people stood with their backs facing the exit of the stairs, facing the sea, standing straight, Like four stone statues.

Potter looked at his eyes wide, took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his emotions, and shouted, "Sherry?!"

The sound that came out was like a cup of sand, and was blown away by the night wind as soon as I spoke, and then... there was no response.

"Parker! Darnell! Gas!" Potter yelled the names of the other three, still not answering.Four people stood motionless.

Potter stepped, the clasp of the bloody jewel in his hand clattered, his knuckles turned blue, the sound of mana running in the body echoed deep in his ears, and he approached the four standing people a little bit.

One step, two steps, three steps...

In the end, Potter walked in front of the four people, and saw the four people standing on the deck, without any expression on their faces, and collectively staring at the distant sea as if there was something important.

Potter stepped forward, approached Shirley, and touched Shirley's body: "How are you, Shirley?"

There was still no response, but at the moment of the touch, Shirley's eyes seemed to turn slightly, and then a series of blood flowed from the corners of the eyes.Blood flowed down her cheeks like tears, onto her clothes along her neck, soaked the clothes, and then "ticked" to the deck.

Potter turned his head to look at the other three, and he saw the same tears in the other three, causing blood to continually gather on the deck.Under the action of some mysterious force, the blood slowly draws a pattern similar to the pentacle array.

With a bang, Shirley bleeds blood, swayed and fell on the deck, and the remaining three followed him on the deck.

Potter looked at the bodies of the four people and opened his lips several times, trying to say something, but said nothing.

Before, he wanted to say “be careful” with Shirley, but now there is no chance — never a chance.

Potter's whole body was trembling slightly, not knowing whether it was because of fear or anger. Suddenly he heard a strange noise behind him, and suddenly turned around to look at it without attack.

"Go to hell!"

"brush!"

A blood-red ray emanated from the gem held by Potter and hit a seabird who wanted to rest on the deck.The seabird screamed, his body exploded directly, and flesh and blood spattered.

A few drops of blood splattered on Potter's lips. Potter felt the bloody smell and disgusting, his body swayed, his face pale and pale, as if his soul had been hit hard.

"Bang," as if his bones had been pulled away, Potter leaned forward and leaned forward, kneeling on the deck.With his head down, his fists clenched, his eyes blinked, his mouth opened, no tears, no crying, just silence.

At this moment Potter didn't know what he was thinking. It took a long time before he stood up, stumbled towards the cabin where the wizard was in the distance, and knocked on the door in the night.

...

At about the same time.

On the third deck, the cabin where Richard lives.

With a "squeak", Richard closed the cabin door.

He was still a little surprised that Potter knocked on the door just now, but he should be even more surprised to see what the other person looked like, or he was already in a panic.

The speculation he had made before is now correct: the murders on the giant ship are not simply murders, but a complete plan.

Starting from the sailors, to ordinary students, and now to wizard apprentices, this gradual escalation is deliberately made to continuously strengthen the terror atmosphere on board.The ultimate goal is to stimulate the wizard a little bit, so that the wizard can’t sit still and wants to shoot-the murderer’s target is the wizard, and the wizard is always from beginning to end.

Now it seems that the plan has reached the end, the real big show will be on stage, and the real result will be announced.

Although there are four full-scale wizards on the giant wheel, he is not optimistic about the prospects of the four wizards.The murderer is clearly prepared. The other party has been able to implement the plan on the giant wheel for so long. The four wizards still can't find the other party. There is no clue, but it has explained many things.

The result of that time is likely to be the fiasco of the four wizards, which may be slaughtered.

In other words, should he think about the future?

I have to say that if he really knew this would happen, he should probably choose the rest of the way to the mainland instead of riding the giant ship of the White Rock Tower.

But now it's already at sea and it's too late to regret it.

What's the danger? Diving with Pandora to escape is no problem, but the question is where can I escape?

The sea is very large and dangerous. The giant ship sails in it, both as an oasis in the desert and as a prison, so that the people in it cannot really escape.

In fact, precisely because of this, the dead people on board keep the atmosphere of terror increasing.

Relatively closed environment, isolated from the world, unable to communicate normally, everyone can’t leave, strange things happen, continuous dead people...

All these situations are completely an interpretation of the "storm mode" in typical crime novels. Of course, it is now more appropriate to call it the "island mode".

In other words, wouldn’t the murderer really want to kill everyone on this giant wheel?

According to common sense, after the other party has dealt with the wizard, it should be over.Looking at the other party's appearance, it doesn't seem to be the kind of existence that really likes to kill people, but only to deliberately retaliate against the Shiraishi Tower.

But we must also make some preparations to prevent unintended needs.

Richard thought about this in his heart, groping in the dark cabin to the side, lit the oil lamp, and illuminated the cabin.

Looking to the side, you see the bed... Pandora fell asleep with her eyes closed. Just now the other person turned over and fell off the bed, only to draw Potter.Fortunately, he concealed the past perfectly, without causing any doubt.

With a sigh, Richard walked over and picked up the fleshy Pandora and put it on the bed.Then he thought of something and turned his head to look at the corner of the cabin.

On the ground in the corner, a pile of black powder remained quietly.

Not much surprised, Richard stepped over, took out the glass bottle, and carefully collected the black powder.

Put away the powder, walk to the table and sit down, Li Cha narrowed his eyes and said to himself: "Every visit, you have to leave something to clean, it is a little trouble. But the most troublesome thing is, What does the other party mean? It seems that they don't want to explain the words at all. In this case, you must make some preparations. Otherwise, who knows whether they will turn their faces at the end..."
