He Comes From the Void

Kahn's bedtime story was late, and none of them woke up when Sarah went to wake them up for dinner.

When she opened the door and went in, she saw the two of them hugging each other tightly and sleeping soundly. There was only a blanket on their bodies, and the parts outside the blanket were all naked. Moreover, the blanket is so thin that one can look at the outline and imagine what a tightly fitting position is inside.

Sarah hesitated to speak, her heart beat faster, and finally she closed the door and exited.

Anyway, the two-week long voyage has just begun, so there is no need to disturb their work and rest, there will be plenty of time adjustments later.

It's just a fish soup made from the fresh fish just caught this morning.

Sarah came to the captain's cabin, where the table was full of maps and charts of all the boundaries around the Warden's Sea. The drawings show water depths, tides, and seabed characteristics.

But there is no relevant information about Shadow Island. Although Kahn promised, this trip is still full of unknowns.

But speaking of which, the voyage was not as far as her trip to Noxus, which took her three weeks to get to Dragon's Gate.

The Shadow Isles are located to the southeast of Bilgewater, and the straight-line distance between the two is only half the distance between the Immortal Fortress and Bilgewater.

But from a geographical point of view, Port Piraeus is indeed the closest human settlement to the Shadow Isles, so every year it will bear the brunt of the night of Soul Eclipse.

And Sarah stayed in Bilgewater almost every year during the night of the soul eclipse, but she basically hid in a strong house every time, obeyed the old man's teachings, and never went out that night.

Ashamed to say, the result of this is that she doesn't know when the undead will arrive, nor when the undead will leave. The impression of the night of the soul eclipse is only the viscous and suffocating roar of the undead that night, the devastated city and the corpse shipwreck floating in the bay the next morning.

This time she was going to the Shadow Island, and she suddenly wanted to figure out what the undead she was about to face was.

The door opened quietly, and she knew who it was without looking up.

Only those few people dared to enter the house without knocking on the door, and she had just seen two of them, and they were hugging each other tightly to sleep.

"Captain, what can I do for you?" Raven pushed the door open and came in with a little fish soup hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Sarah doesn't pay much attention to details, so she just ignored this flaw.

"Brother Lei Wen, you should have gone through Soul Eclipse Night."

"Of course, I have experienced it several times." Lei Wen patted the skull on the hilt of his sword, showing no modesty at all.

"I'm talking about facing the undead."

"Uh, that's not true." Lei Wen scratched his head: "Each year, a group of idiots will be taken away on the night of the soul eclipse, and those who survive are the smart ones."

"What charades are you playing again?"

"Smart people know not to run around on the night of soul eclipse, and those who are not smart will die."

"Brother, you are so humorous." Sara smiled.

Raven understood Sarah's sarcasm: "Let's talk about the business. The night of the soul eclipse, the thing you want to ask is actually not recorded in history, because it only spread to Bilgewater in the last few decades." , Bilgewater has never suffered a night of soul eclipse before this. It is the misfortune of our generation."

"diffusion?"

"Yes, it's spreading." Raven replied: "At first, the black mist just spread over the sea, capturing the lives of those lost at sea. It grew very slowly, and it took a thousand years to reach the periphery of Bilgewater. ...but in recent years it has spread its tentacles into the Bilgewater port, taking the lives of many fishermen and accelerating its growth as a result."

"So evil?"

Lei Wen replied solemnly: "I heard that people who died on the night of eating souls will be cursed, and their souls will be taken away when the black mist fades, leaving only the corpses. And every time the black mist gets a new soul , it will spread to farther places. By now, when Soul Eater Night falls, the entire Bilgewater will be in danger. In a few years, the Python Islands will also suffer. "

"Is that so..." Sarah nodded thoughtfully: "Raven, speaking of which, what do you think of our operation?"

"You're talking about brother Kahn's plan, right?" Raven took out a toothpick from his clothes and began to pick his teeth, while also considering his words.

But thinking that there was nothing he couldn't say to Sarah, he directly expressed his thoughts.

"To be honest, I think it's outrageous. People who have no water in their minds will never come up with such a bad idea."

As soon as Raven spoke, Sarah's willow-leaf eyebrows frowned immediately.

Just when she was thinking about whether Lei Wen's words were inappropriate, Lei Wen immediately changed her words, and her expression changed as quickly as she changed her face.

"However, this is what I told the people under my command—my little brother's plans usually sound crazy, but didn't they all come true in the end? Think about it, sea monsters and deep sea titans, before you see the real thing, do you believe Do these things exist? And he not only made them appear, but he used them to kill the enemy, which is amazing."

Finally, Raven bit his toothpick and shook it up and down: "Shadow Island will definitely not be safe, but if someone comes back in the end and uses Soul Eclipse to bring Plankla into the water, then I can blow it up for the rest of my life."

"He knows a lot more about these gods and ghosts than we do. It's impossible not to admire them." Sarah's expression finally froze into a smile.

This is why she needs Lei Wen. Lei Wen's emotional intelligence is quite high, and he can help deal with many things without her saying anything.

"Is there anything else, Captain?"

"No more, go get busy."

After the door closed, Sarah lay back on her chair.

From the conversation just now, she learned that the black mist can suck people's souls away, so she must stay away.

But this information is still too little. After all, Raven is not a professional, so I have to ask Kahn later.

...

Regarding billiards, Kaisha played very vigorously at the beginning, but it became more and more boring as the game progressed.

Because they had been sailing on the open sea for more than ten days, and they were almost approaching the legendary Shadow Isle, and some things happened during this period, which made her unable to rest in peace.

It was her partner who made the decision to send a boat of people to the Shadow Isle, and she was one of the few people on the boat who could resist the undead. She had to be vigilant and take responsibility to protect the people on the boat.

"It's been two full days, and there's no wind in our sails, and the boat can't feel any movement. When will we be able to see land if we go on like this?"

Kaisa heard the crew complaining to Raven on the deck, and she looked towards the sea.

Only sea water can be seen all around.

The surface of the sea was as calm and dark as a mirror, and the air seemed to be frozen, and there was no whisper of the breeze.

Even if she doesn't know how to sail, she knows that such calm waters portend disaster.

She couldn't help looking at Kahn on the forward deck, who was scanning the distant ocean with binoculars, looking for any clues that might be used to identify the direction.
