Chapter 73 Suppression
Although the sharp-clawed sea monster was repelled, the passengers on the ship also suffered heavy losses.
After several hours of fighting, many passengers were killed by the sharp-clawed sea monster, and the blood almost dyed the deck red. Some injured passengers leaned against the wall of the ship, uttering low wails, and the whole ship was shrouded in a sad atmosphere.
Bourne was commanding his knights to do the aftermath.
In this horrible sea monster attack, the Sky Knight Bourne showed strong combat power and excellent leadership. He was almost always the one who maintained order on the deck and commanded everyone to repel the sea monster.
"Bourne." Enzo silently remembered the name, and then looked away.
In addition to this Sky Knight, many people showed their strength in this sea monster attack. Among them, the most impressive one was the princess of the Red Castle Kingdom, Myrcella, known as the 'Burning Ruby'!
Although she is not a Sky Knight, she has the ability to release magic!
When the sea monster attacked the ship at night, Myrcella burned and killed more than 30 sharp-clawed sea monsters by herself. That powerful force is really unforgettable.
"Wizard inheritance? Or some kind of magic item?" Enzo stroked his chin, his eyes flashing with thoughtfulness.
The previous battle was fierce and chaotic, but Enzo always paid attention to the movements around him. He saw clearly that when Myrcella killed the sharp-clawed sea monster, she used a tornado-type fire witchcraft, but Enzo could not feel too much magic fluctuations on the opponent.
This means that the magic released by Myrcella is likely to come from a magic item!
The sky was slightly white, and the sun shone through the layers of fog and projected on the deck, bringing a faint light to the ship.
"It's dawn." Jorah raised his hand, looked at the sunlight on his fingertips, and muttered to himself.
Bourne commanded his knights to drag the bodies of the sharp-clawed sea monsters to a corner of the ship, and the bodies of the dead passengers were piled on the edge of the deck.
"Bury all these bodies in the sea." Bourne looked solemn and said in a deep voice, "May their souls rest in peace."
The order on the ship gradually recovered, but an oppressive atmosphere began to spread among the passengers. After resolving everything on the deck, Bourne took his knights back to the cabin, and the passengers injured in the battle were taken away by their companions.
"What should we do now?" Jorah turned his head and looked at Enzo.
"Go back to the cabin first." Enzo said.
The two then returned to the cabin and found that there seemed to be a fight here. The ground and walls were covered with blood. Following the corridor to the innermost room, Jorah just opened the door and saw two shivering and frail figures curled up in the corner of the room.
"Winnie? Rowling?" Jorah was stunned.
Hidden in the corner of the room were Winnie and Rowling. Seeing Enzo and Jorah push the door in, Rowling let out a long breath, and a trace of blood returned to her pale face. She quickly pulled Winnie up.
"You are finally back." Rowling's lips turned pale, and she covered her chest and said, "Everything that happened last night was so terrible."
"Wow, so terrible." Winnie's eyes turned red, and she couldn't help crying, her voice trembling, "Why is this happening? Shouldn't the ghost ship sail to the wizard continent? How could it be attacked by those monsters!"
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Seeing this, Jorah hurried forward and hugged Winnie into his arms, and whispered to comfort her, "Those sea monsters have been driven away. We are safe now, and nothing will happen."
While Jorah was comforting Winnie, Enzo asked Rowling about what happened last night.
It turned out that after the two had dinner in Jorah's room, they fell asleep in the room, but they were awakened by a scream not long after, and then followed the crowd to the deck, and then saw the scene of the sharp-clawed sea monster attacking the giant ship.
Stimulated by the bloody scene, the two suddenly woke up, and because they were very close to the cabin entrance, they fled back to the cabin as soon as possible.
After the two returned to the cabin, they wanted to seek help from Jorah, but they couldn't find anyone. At that time, a sharp-clawed sea monster also broke into the cabin. The two were so scared that they had to hide in the room and tremble until everything was over.
"All those monsters rushed into the cabin?" Enzo frowned slightly.
"Well! Before the gate at the entrance of the cabin was closed, a monster squeezed in." Recalling everything that happened at night, Rowling's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and said with lingering fear: "The situation was very chaotic at the time. The monster rushed into the cabin and started to kill people crazily. I saw with my own eyes that a girl was caught by it and her body was torn in half."
At this time, footsteps came from the corridor outside the cabin.
Enzo leaned out and saw that at the staircase connecting the first and second floors of the cabin, several teenagers were struggling to drag the body of a monster out. It seemed to be the sharp-clawed sea monster that rushed into the cabin.
This sharp-clawed sea monster was dead as hell. There was a long narrow wound on its abdomen, which seemed to be caused by a sharp axe.
"Yes! It's that monster." Following the gap in the cabin door, Rowling also saw the body of the sharp-clawed sea monster. She couldn't help but take a half step back, her eyes full of fear.
At this time, several teenagers had dragged the body of the sharp-clawed sea monster out of the cabin.
Enzo's eyes flickered, and he took a deep look at the stairs on the second floor of the cabin.
"Wow, when can we reach the wizard continent?" After being comforted by Jorah for a while, Winnie's mood has stabilized a little, but she still can't help sobbing softly, "There won't be any more monsters attacking the ghost ship."
Enzo and Jorah looked at each other, and a trace of solemnity appeared on their faces.
The journey ahead is full of unknowns. Although the sharp-clawed sea monster has been repelled by everyone, when night falls again, no one knows whether the giant ship will be attacked by monsters again.
