Chapter 3256: The Shadow of Faraines (Twenty-Seven)
Chapter 3230 The Haze of Faraines (Twenty-seven)
Schiller used the Cthulhu Mythos skill on this bottle of wine.
"...Looking at this bottle of wine, you gradually recalled some knowledge..."
Some information was sent to Schiller's mind.
"Golden honey wine: After use, it can restore 30% of the maximum mental health value, and at the same time fall into a "stagnant" state. During this period, you cannot move or think, cannot feel any information from the outside world, and will not be affected by any external factors. It is immune to all mental health value deduction effects, but it will still be damaged by external forces. Please use it with caution."
That's right, Schiller thought, finally got the key props. This thing not only has the most valuable effect of restoring mental health value, but also can be immune to mental health value deduction effects for a period of time, that is, completely immune to mental pollution, which is simply a magical skill.
But this thing also has disadvantages, that is, you can't move after drinking it, and it is completely immune to physical damage. Although it will not be mentally polluted, it will definitely die if it is cut.
So this thing is only suitable for immunity to mental pollution in a safe environment, and is not suitable for use in battle.
But at the same time, this is also a magical weapon for fighting a bad battle. They can just wait until the Old Day comes, find a secret room to drink a sip of wine, and wait until all the other behind-the-scenes culprits go crazy before coming out to deal with them.
Schiller probably had some plans in his mind. He told Batman the information about this bottle of wine. Although it did not indicate the number of times and the amount of use, there was still more than half a bottle left, which should be enough for the two of them.
They searched the captain's room again and found a collectible revolver and a dagger inlaid with gems, both of which seemed to have some mystical properties. Batman took the pistol, and Schiller chose the dagger.
"I think we have to leave here quickly." Batman said, "The Great Prophet's people should be here soon. Now is the window period for the Deep Ones' defense. It's easy for them to sneak into the ship. It will be difficult to leave later." "Are you going to leave just like that?" Schiller narrowed his eyes and said, "The Deep Ones have rested for so long, it's time to come out and move around." "What are you going to do?" "Of course, let them do their duty." The two returned to the second floor of the cabin together. This is in the middle of the cabin, but it is still submerged in water. Schiller glanced at the old seal on his hand. The light was slightly dim, but it could still be used. He walked to the outermost wall of the cabin, turned to Batman and said, "This ship can float on the sea, obviously it is affected by the mysterious power, and this mark on my hand can drive away the mysterious power. What do you think will happen if I touch the hull with my hand?"
Batman paused, and he immediately realized what Schiller was going to do. He said, "I found out when I was hiding under the pier before. The deep diver was hiding under these three ships to recover his strength."
"It seems that we are lucky." Schiller said with a smile.
Batman walked to the stairs, as if ready to run out at any time. Schiller stretched out his hand and gently pressed on the wall of the hull.
He did not touch the wooden board directly, but a layer of something like a seawater barrier, which was soft and moist to the touch.
Schiller felt a hot palm, and then his hand broke through the limit of the seawater barrier and directly touched the rotten hull.
The hull, which had long been corroded, collapsed into pieces in an instant after losing the protection of the mysterious power.
Seawater instantly poured in through the hole.
After breaking the hull, Schiller turned and ran out, and together with Batman, he found the door they had entered before as quickly as possible. Without even looking at the deep divers who reappeared at the door, they ran out of the ship in a flash.
They ran to the lighthouse in one breath and came to the top floor of the lighthouse. Standing in front of the window, they saw that the foggy coast in the distance had long lost its initial dullness and depression, but had a huge riot.
The hull of the middle one of the three warships gradually tilted, and then slowly sank. The huge mast hit the pier on the shore, not only killing many deep divers, but also breaking the deepest pier at the dock.
But the disaster has just begun.
The base where the deep divers restored oxygen was right below the three ships. They probably didn't expect someone to sink the ship, so they didn't build a house for the base, but directly laid the foundation in the open air.
Thanks to Bruce's previous operation of pulling monsters, most of the deep divers were recovering oxygen in the base. When the ship fell, they had no time to run. At least one-third of the deep divers were crushed under the hull.
The remaining deep divers rushed to the shore screaming. The patrol companions on the shore didn't know what happened and ran back in a panic. The whole dock was in chaos.
"I guess the Great Prophet must be confused now." Schiller had already made no effort to hide the gloating in his tone. He said: "Before he had time to find the treasure, the ship sank. He must be wondering what happened."
"This is a good thing for him." Batman said: "I don't think he has mastered the correct way to open the door. If he really got on the ship, he might have fallen into the trap long ago."
Schiller agreed with Batman's point of view. The Great Prophet may know more than others, but it is definitely not all. If there is a mistake in the link of opening the door, there will definitely be serious consequences.
"What do we do next?"
Schiller asked this, but Batman heard his hint and said, "It sounds like you have something to do?"
"Yes, I'm going to find something deep in the cave." Schiller planned to fulfill his agreement with Naya as soon as possible to prevent any more trouble.
"I plan to find the tools for the Joker to modify the electric shock device here and modify a gun for you."
Schiller didn't hesitate to hand him the screws and the pass to the Siltek laboratory, and then said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the church's large forces will come soon. You should guard the lighthouse as much as possible. If you can't, retreat to the tunnel and wait for me in the laboratory."
Schiller followed the entrance of the lighthouse into the underground cave, and while heading deep into the cave, he thought about the known clues.
At present, most of the clues are connected, and the guns that appeared in the first few scenes have also been fired.
Schiller walked to the underground river and saw the fish running in the river. The origin of these fish was not clear, but it was known that they should be in the background story of the Joker.
However, combined with the fish in the stomachs of the previous dead and the arrival of the Deep Ones, Schiller could roughly guess that this should be a ritual to summon the Deep Ones.
Although Schiller had not seen similar rituals in any of the Cthulhu Mythos books, there are many ways to summon this thing, using spells, magic circles or sacrifices. Sometimes they even come uninvited and randomly choose a hapless city to wreak havoc.
Those who ate the fish were not the experimental subjects of the Siltek Biological Company, but the sacrifices in the ritual to summon the Deep Ones. After all, they all died tragically in the end, which was in line with the process of blood sacrifice.
In the plot, it should be that the old Siltek who used the disaster to improve his status sacrificed them to summon the Deep Ones. After all, the old Siltek came to this village for this matter and has been operating here for a long time. It is not a problem to fool a few people.

The ghost ship that came with the Deep Diver should have been summoned by the Great Prophet in the church. He may have learned the identity of the captain through some channels and knew that he had a prop that could be immune to mental pollution, so he wanted to summon the ship to get the prop.
The original disaster wanderer may be the Pope, who is a cultist, who made a trick to change the day and turned the monster that was supposed to be released from the room into the real clone of the Old One to trick the Great Prophet.
In general, this accident is the result of a three-way struggle. Although all the others have their own malicious intentions, they can barely be regarded as victims.
Schiller has come to the cave full of forks at this time. He asked in his heart: "Which way to go?"
"Use your inspiration." Naya replied.
Schiller sighed and passed the inspiration test. After success, he instinctively walked towards a road. The next step is to throw dice all the way and pass the test all the way.
Schiller thought that Naya must have played tricks on the dice, and he had never failed to throw them all the way.
Finally, he followed a narrow path and came to a small space. Although the cave was not big, there was a faint light above, which showed that there was an exit. The ground was actually grass, and the walls were covered with vines, just like an underground forest.
Schiller saw the box being illuminated by the light above. He walked over and saw a diamond-shaped glass inlaid in the center of the box.
He walked over and picked up the box. The moment he opened the box, his breathing stagnated.
What came into view was a red polyhedron with an irregular number of faces, which was supported by seven irregular metal supports in a box. At this time, the interior of the crystal emitted a faint red light.
Schiller threw the box out directly.
"...What are you afraid of?" Naya's voice seemed to be a little resentful.
Schiller also felt that his reaction was a bit too much. After all, he owed Naya a debt and didn't pay it back. Seeing a summoned creature of his clone, it should be afraid of this thing.
But this thing is really famous, it is a veritable engine for the group's annihilation, and its name is "Shining Trioctahedron".
The main function of this thing is to summon Naya's clone Night Demon.
Basically, any veteran who has participated in a few group games will know that when you encounter this thing, there is only one word, run.
Run as fast as you can, run as far as you can, and run slower and the group will be wiped out.
Naya's clones are independent of each other and have different personalities, but the most brutal one is Night Demon, because he attacks all living things indiscriminately, and no one can escape.
He must move in a completely dark environment, and he will be re-sealed as long as there is a trace of light. This is why this box is placed under dim light.
After picking up the box again, fortunately it was not broken. Schiller took out the shining trioctahedron and turned on the flashlight for safety reasons. This thing does not have to be sealed with sunlight, and the light of the flashlight is also fine, which greatly reduces Schiller's pressure to carry it.
But after taking it out, Schiller found that there was something else underneath. Schiller carefully took out the things at the bottom of the box.
It was a book with a pure black cover and a line of gold-plated cursive text on it, which read "The Haze of Faraines".
And at the bottom there was a line of small words, which read the author's name - "John V. Constantine".
Yasuko has no middle name, and V is the first letter of his first personal magazine.
