Mystery: The Undead Don't Die from Linking the Fire

Chapter 95 is silence, I added silence!

"puff!"

"Found it!"

A portly sailor, yet as agile as a mermaid, swam to the surface and excitedly shouted towards the nearby Golden Dream, "Captain, I've found it!"

"Well done!"

"Whoosh! Take off! Daniels, you'll get a treat tonight!"

"Get lost! Do you think I'm your dog?"

"Isn't that right?"

"Even if it's a dog, it's the captain's dog!"

"Hahaha!"

Amidst the crew's laughter and chatter, they began to skillfully carry out various preparations.

Boatswain Daniels has confirmed that the shipwreck is in the vicinity; all that remains is the salvage operation.

This is not difficult.

Especially given that they have already done similar work dozens or even hundreds of times.

"If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to return to base tonight."

Edwina appeared beside Yu Jin at some point, her voice clear and calm.

"How long will it take?"

"Ember asked."

They are now significantly behind schedule.

The original plan was for three days.

But in reality, it took them five days to get to this area, and another two days to search for the shipwreck.

Of course, this is only if they already have accurate intelligence confirming that the shipwreck is nearby; otherwise, it would take even longer.

"It will take about six days."

Edwina said softly, "I'm sorry, it took a few days longer than we agreed."

"I see."

Yu Jin nodded thoughtfully.

Based on this calculation, Mr. Hanged Man will probably have to wait for him on Toscart Island for another two days.

Meanwhile, many sailors on deck were already preparing to go into the water.

They are all extraordinary individuals in the "Sailor" class, which is also the largest number of extraordinary individuals at sea.

Even if they are only Sequence 9, they have the ability to move flexibly in water.

In terms of salvaging shipwrecks, they have a far greater advantage than other extraordinary beings.

"Thump!"

As the sailors went out to sea one after another, they began to frequently go in and out of the sea.

"You seem to know what's on this ship?"

Yu Jin looked at Edwina beside him and, seeing the hint of expectation in her eyes, asked curiously.

"Just a guess."

Edwina shook her head slightly, pointed to a spot on the sea to the right of the ship, and asked, "Do you know what that place is?"

"Ruins of the War of Gods".

Ember gazed at the sea horizon and answered.

He certainly didn't know about this sea before he came, but the embers of the conversations of the other sailors gave him the answer.

"right."

Edwina nodded slightly and said softly, "Legend has it that it wasn't a real ocean, but rather the ruins of the War of the Gods. Whether this rumor is true or not, it's certain that the sea was extremely dangerous. Most pirates who went there never returned."

"The shipwreck we're trying to salvage seems to have brought out some important item from the ruins of the War of Gods. But it sank in these waters for unknown reasons shortly after leaving the ruins."

"puff!"

"captain!"

Boatswain Daniels, with his barrel-shaped waist, surfaced again, shouting excitedly, "I've found something great!"

Daniels raised his hands high; it was a huge black iron key!

The other sailors quickly pulled him onto the ship, and along the way, some sailors tried to take advantage of the situation and steal the key.

But in the end, he glared back fiercely at them all.

Finally, Daniels, like a victorious rooster, excitedly raised the key and went to Edwina.

"captain."

"Well done."

Edwina took the huge black iron key and said softly.

"Of course!"

Daniels nodded hurriedly, and when he heard Edwina's praise, he couldn't help but show his delight. He also looked at the other sailors with a hint of pride in his eyes.

"Is there anything else on the ship?"

Edwina studied it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so she frowned and asked.

"Nothing much."

Daniels shook his head. "There was a chest of treasure, though; I had the other sailors carry it. As for the rest, it would have rotted in the sea long ago. Only this key..."

Daniels clicked his tongue in amazement and said, "Captain, you saw it too. It's been at sea for so long and there's not even a trace of rust. And this size is obviously not for an ordinary person."

"giant."

The image of a race immediately came to Edwina's mind, which seemed to remind her of something.

Before long, the other sailors also surfaced and returned to the ship.

As Daniels stated, there are no other valuable treasures on the seabed.

Edwina seemed unwilling to linger there and ordered the sailors to raise the sails and set sail.

however.

Just as they were about to leave, a loud and clear whale roar suddenly rang in their ears.

The sailors on the ship changed their expressions slightly, and quite a few even took out their weapons.

As they gazed at the seemingly calm, azure sea in the distance.

With a whoosh, an enormous and terrifying monster suddenly burst out of the sea!

"Bang!"

The huge waves created when the sea monster emerged from the sea crashed against the ship's hull, even causing the Golden Dream to shake violently.

Despite the extraordinary abilities of the sailors, some were caught off guard and fell on the deck.

"Obniz".

Edwina gazed at the sea monster in the distance and murmured softly.

Ember also looked at the sea monster.

It was a giant tentacle with countless tentacles that seemed thicker than the ship's hull. Its black body was covered with strange patterns, and it had three heads, each with a dozen or so eyes that glowed with an oily green light!

Its appearance alone gives off a feeling that makes people's sanity drop wildly and their scalp tingle.

Its enormous size leaves no doubt that it could swallow an entire sailboat whole!

Just as the sailors were nervously preparing to deal with the attack, a sailboat silently appeared behind the sea monster.

The terrifying monster, which looked extremely intimidating, did not attack the ship.

This caused Edwina's expression to change slightly, as if she had thought of something.

"It's a Vice Admiral!"

First Mate Bruce said in a deep voice.

The corresponding information immediately flashed through Yu Jin's mind—

Vice Admiral Hal Constantine, one of the Seven Pirate Generals.

Rumor has it that he has some sea monster blood and can control sea monsters to a certain extent to accompany him.

This pirate general himself possesses the strength of Sequence 5, and the giant sea monster he encountered is also comparable to Sequence 5. Based on these two factors alone, he is among the best of the pirate generals.

but.

They're not necessarily afraid of him!

"This is troublesome."

Jodson, wearing a bow tie, narrowed his eyes slightly, saying it was troublesome but showing no fear on his face.

Orpheus, dressed in the Sun Knight suit, said in a deep voice, "Captain, I suggest we fire the cannons immediately and strike first! Even a sea monster couldn't withstand a single shot from the Purification Cannon!"

"The Purification Cannon?"

Ember's gaze followed Orpheus's line of sight to the bow of the ship, where a main cannon was positioned along the centerline.

The symbols and patterns on the cannon barrel overlapped, shimmering with a faint but pure light.

That's the Purifying Cannon Orpheus mentioned; it can only be used ten times.

To replenish one's spirituality, a ritual must be performed by six Sequence 5 Light Priests to pray to the gods!

Although the process was quite complicated, it also proved its immense power.

Even a Sequence 5 would be certain to die if hit by a single shot.

However, given the agility of a Sequence 5 Extraordinary, the accuracy of the cannon is highly questionable.

But if it's about dealing with a sea monster that has the strength of a Sequence 5 but is also enormous, then it's definitely the best choice!

This cannon is undoubtedly the most powerful offensive weapon of the Golden Dream, bar none!

"Wait a little longer."

Edwina gazed at the sea monster and sailboat in the distance and said softly.

She wasn't very familiar with Vice Admiral Deep Sea, and their relationship wasn't particularly good.

But the other side should be well aware of just how powerful the Golden Dream's firepower is.

Unless the other party is stupid, they won't take the initiative to attack them.

really.

Just as Edwina expected.

As soon as the two sides made eye contact, the sailboat suddenly began to turn around.

The sea monster seemed to have received some kind of command, and its three enormous heads began to sink.

In the end, only a few dozen green eyes remained, staring at them eerily.

"It looks like a fight is unlikely."

"Flower Bow Tie" clicked his tongue, seemingly a little disappointed.

"We're all pirate generals, he probably doesn't want to clash with us."

"That's right. Although rumors say that the captain is the weakest of the seven pirate generals, the pirate generals themselves know the truth. If the captain were even slightly weaker, he wouldn't be qualified to be a pirate general. Since everyone's strength is similar, a real fight would only result in mutual destruction."

"Vice Admiral of the Deep Sea? That's it? That's it?!"

"Hahaha!"

Something's not right!

The sailors breathed a sigh of relief and began to tease each other again, but Edwina's expression suddenly changed slightly.

Because she noticed that the sailboat in the distance had suddenly started to accelerate!

They weren't accelerating towards them, but rather accelerating away!

Even the sea monster has vanished completely, disappearing beneath the sea surface.

As fellow pirate generals, even if they wouldn't easily fight each other, they certainly wouldn't fear him like he feared a venomous snake.

What is he afraid of?!

"What's wrong?"

The first mate and the others exchanged glances, all somewhat puzzled, and were about to ask for clarification.

A cold voice suddenly rang in their ears.

"Did you kill the Mad Captain?"

"Demigod!"

Edwina's fair face immediately tensed up, and a few beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

She finally understood what the Vice Admiral was afraid of, but it was clearly too late!

"I'll ask again."

The demigod, standing silently on the deck, coldly asked, "Did you kill the Mad Captain?"

"The Mad Captain?"

Edwina instinctively looked to her side, but there was no one there.

The embers, who should have been standing there, have vanished without a trace.

His reaction seemed to be faster than anyone else's.

They had already taken the opportunity to leave while they were still wondering why the creature was trying to escape into the deep sea.

Edwina's eyes flickered slightly as she forcibly shifted her gaze to the man in front of her.

He was a middle-aged man with a buzz cut, wearing a black suit, and sporting a large beard that extended outwards from his mouth and thick eyebrows.

A pair of deep blue, almost black eyes were staring intently at the people on the ship, their expression utterly cold.

"no."

Edwina gritted her teeth and said, "Sir, I don't know who you are, but Captain Mad's death has nothing to do with us."

"None of your business?"

The demigod chuckled coldly. "Then how do you explain your presence at the scene?"

"He performed divination."

Edwina's expression darkened, and she said in a low voice, "We just happened to be passing by."

"You're lying!"

The demigod's gaze was sharp and intense, causing Edwina a slight sting.

"captain!"

The first mate and his men were immediately anxious, their faces filled with anger even as they faced a demigod.

However, the demigod remained oblivious, his expression still indifferent.

In his eyes, all the people on the ship were already dead.

He doesn't need to care about the anger of the dead.

As for why he has this confidence?

Because he is a demigod!

A genuine demigod.

He wasn't afraid even when facing pirate kings, let alone a mere pirate general.

I'm giving you one last chance.

The demigod stared at the female captain's beautiful face and said calmly, "Who killed the mad captain?"

"You're looking for me."

Inside the cabin, Yu Jin heard the sounds outside and his expression revealed his understanding.

The moment the other party appeared, he released his invisible body and quietly entered the cabin.

Once he realized that the other party was a demigod and had come to find him, he knew what he had to do.

"Ring ring~"

Ember pulled out the Holy Bell of Yorshka; this was the first time he had faced a demigod in this world.

Although the strength of the so-called demigod is still unclear, we must still make full preparations.

and so--

When in doubt, apply a buff first.

"A vow as firm as gold and stone!"

Ember half-squatted on the deck, and a warm light appeared above his head as the bells swayed.

A golden magic circle was reflected at his feet.

"Great Magic Protection!"

A milky white light instantly enveloped Ember's body.

"Iron Body!"

"Inner potential!"

finally--

Yu Jin pulled out a military flag.

"when!"

A pale golden magic circle appeared.

Preparations for battle are complete.

……

"Your Mightiness."

Edwina gritted her teeth and said, "We are members of the Church of Knowledge!"

"I know."

The demigod said calmly, "But so what? I've sealed off this space. No one will know you died here, and no one will know it was me. However..."

The demigod suddenly chuckled, "It's fine if you don't want to talk, I'll make you talk."

The demigod licked his lips, a greedy glint in his eyes. "In bed."

"You bastard! What do you think you're doing to the captain?!"

The sailors glared angrily and charged at the demigod.

But as one can imagine.

His efforts were in vain.

The demigod merely waved at them with a disdainful expression.

The sailors who had been angrily charging at the demigod suddenly retreated rapidly in a manner contrary to common sense.

Their ankles suddenly turned 180 degrees, and their bones were instantly broken by their own hands.

Even so, they did not stop; their legs, which should have been unable to move, continued to move backward.

Finally, it crashed into the ship's side and fell into the deep sea.

Even under these circumstances, they continued to retreat towards the deep sea!

Before long, they will drown themselves!

However, there are always exceptions.

"Die!"

The man with the bow tie somehow evaded the demigod's power, and with a roar, he raised his dagger and stabbed at the demigod.

But the next second, his palm suddenly turned downwards at an impossible 180 degrees. With a painful scream, his hand bones broke, and the dagger pierced his chest.

"puff!"

As blood gushed forth, the figure in the bow tie flew backward at an even greater speed.

"Jodson!"

Edwina's expression changed drastically, and a hint of anger appeared on her usually calm and aloof face.

No matter how bad her crew members were in the past, they were still his subordinates!

"madness."

The demigod's lips curled into a disdainful sneer.

But he didn't notice that an invisible figure was quietly passing through the cabin walls.

Appearing behind him, she raised the amulet in her hand.

"A ban on silence!"
