Chapter 1916 The Curse of the Evil Eye

How is this going?

Qiao An thought for a while, and realized that the maximum range of the Sea Hag's "Evil Eye Curse" was only 60 feet, and she was at the bottom of the well at the moment. Even with her height of about 6 feet, the straight-line distance between her eyes and the mouth of the well was beyond the range of the staring attack. range.

Qiao An adjusted the "pit-making technique" and reduced the depth of the pit to 60 feet. Now the sea hag's "curse of evil eyes" finally reached him, but the magic power contained in his sight was blocked by the mirror shield in his eyes. It has no effect on him.

In this way, Joan completed the first phase of the test, proving that "Reflex Gaze" has a perfect defensive effect on "Evil Eye Curse".

Next, Joan chanted the incantation again, exhausting the magic power of the mirror shield in his eyes, rebounding the sea hag's evil sight, and then testing the second function of "reflective gaze".

Normally, the sea hag is immune to her own gaze attack, but the rays bounced back through the "reflected gaze" are strengthened, penetrate her own immunity, and implant the evil curse deeply into her mind, instantly breaking through the defense of will , so that she tasted the taste of asking for trouble.

The sea hag seemed to be in a deep nightmare. Seeing an extremely terrifying scene, she clasped her head in her hands and wailed in terror. She curled up in a ball at the bottom of the well, and was so frightened that she passed out.

Joan canceled the magic trap, the deck returned to level, and pushed the unconscious sea hag up.

Out of prudence, Joan didn't rush to get close to the sea hag. First, she activated the "Advanced Internal Vision Technique" to check her physical condition. After confirming that the two negative states of "curse" and "coma" appeared in the "health" column, she was relieved. A tube of blood was drawn from the sea hag in the past with a large syringe.

The comatose state caused by the "curse of the evil eye" cannot be awakened by external factors such as pain. Only by removing the curse can the sea hag wake up.

Qiao An put away the blood collection bottle, and didn't want to kill the sea hag for the time being, so she cast a spell to lift her curse, and before the sea hag woke up, he sucked her into the "demon collection bottle" and imprisoned her, maybe it would be useful in the future use.

Putting away the "demon collection bottle", Joan turned and walked into the cabin.

Hyrule, Audrey, and Holden had arrived first, and joined the fat cook who was guarding the cabin. The three of them jointly performed "remove the curse" to wake up Captain Odysseus who was overwhelmed by the sea hag, and his companions. Seven crew members under his command.

Captain Odysseus thanked Joan and the others on behalf of the entire crew with great gratitude, and then, under the urging of Hailar, the employer, everyone took their positions and restarted the magic steam engine.

After experiencing a storm, the expedition team finally got on the right track. The motor sailing ship "Coral" blew its whistle and slowly sailed out of the anchorage, bathed in starlight, braved the wind and waves, and sailed northward along the coastline, leaving "Banana Island" far behind.

At the same time when Captain Odysseus commanded the sailors to pull anchor and set sail, Sinbad returned to his post in the galley, confidently showing off his cooking skills, and whistling to prepare breakfast for the passengers.

Audrey dragged the captured Sahua pirate into the cabin, and woke him up with two slaps.

After some interrogation, the Shahua pirates truthfully explained the ins and outs of the incident.

Things have to start from last week. At that time, Ms. Kate approached Captain Odysseus to discuss hiring his motor sailing ship and crew to go north for an expedition.

Mark Price, the boatswain on board, overheard the conversation between the two and learned that Ms. Kate was just an agent, and the real employer of the "Coral" was the daughter of the speaker of Freeport.

Mark didn't take this news seriously at first. When he went to the tavern to get drunk in the afternoon, he casually told the news, but he didn't know that there were Francis Messinger's subordinates in the same tavern, who secretly wrote down the information , Report to your boss quickly.

At that time, Messinger was preparing to go to sea, thinking that this was a good opportunity to deal with Hailar, but he had no time to do it himself, so he ordered his cronies Mustafa to assassinate Mark Price, and pretended to be him on the Coral ", looking for an opportunity to get rid of Hailar and his companions.

Mustafa was well disguised after boarding the ship, and no one realized that the real Mark Price had been dropped.

It was not until the "Coral" sailed out of the port this morning that Mustafa sent a letter to his party, summoning a group of pirates and a sea hag loyal to Messinger, and jointly hijacked the "Coral" and moored the ship into the "Banana Island" anchorage, set a trap, and lured Hailar and his party to take the bait.

The Shahua pirates also explained that Messinger's armed merchant ship "Narwhal" sailed north a week ago, and its destination was New Avalon, the capital of the Jotunheim colony in Fizhen. It is said that this trip was not only for business, Messinger also stopped by to visit an old friend who opened a magic crystal processing factory in New Avalon.

The Shahua Pirates didn't know who Messinger's old friend was, but it was not difficult for Hailar to guess the identity of this person.

"It must be Amn Frodie, navigator on board the Herringhorn expedition ship eighteen years ago!"

When the "Herlinghorn" was shipwrecked, almost all of the nearly 100 sailors on board died, and only two survived. One was Francis Messinger, the first mate at the time, and the other was the halfling navigator Amn Flo. di.

Eighteen years later, when the news of the reappearance of the "Herlinghorn" came out, Messinger immediately hurried to the sea and headed north to New Avalon to find his old partner whom he hadn't contacted for many years. This abnormal behavior This gave Joan reason to suspect that the main purpose of Messinger and Frody's meeting this time was to jointly pursue the "Herlinghorn" that was said to have turned into a "ghost ship".

After the interrogation, Hailaer pierced the sahuayu's heart with a sword, picked up the corpse, and threw it into the sea.

Seeing her ferocious demeanor, the Zion siblings couldn't help but change their expressions slightly.

Joan couldn't help but frowned when he saw it, but considering that the sahuagin are definitely not kind, instead of letting him survive and causing more innocent people to be killed by him in the future, it is better to kill him with a sword like Hailar , Never future trouble.

Everyone enjoyed a sumptuous breakfast in the dining room. The delicious fish soup and soft garlic butter toasted rolls cooked by Sinbad were highly praised by everyone. After filling their stomachs, they went back to their cabins to catch up on sleep.

Holding the "bull's-eye magic lamp", Joan opened the door and walked into his cabin. The room was as small as expected, but fortunately it was cleaned very clean.

He put the lantern on the low table beside the bed, took out his pocket watch by the light, and glanced at it. The hour hand on the dial had just crossed five o'clock in the morning.

Joan didn't feel sleepy for the time being, so he opened the portable desk by the bed, and used this quiet time before going to bed to analyze the blood samples of the sea hag and the black spirit Mustafa.
