Chapter 463 Search
Yang Yi chose this coordinate to stop the ship for a reason.
He had roughly guessed the location of the other party's offshore base in the Bobo Fluorescent Seaweed area before.
So this time, he deliberately chose a location far away from the other party's base to stop the ship.
This way, the risk of exposure will be minimized.
Even if the Death Birthday Society enters this area to explore, it is highly likely that they will not wander around the Nightmare Star, after all, the other party's primary target is the disappeared Crystal Island.
But for safety reasons, Yang Yi still suspended all activities on the deck, let the Nightmare Star remain silent, and told Suna the information in time.
In the captain's room.
Tricia sat on the crystal ball and helped Yang Yi stare at the sea chart and pay attention to the activities of the Death Birthday Society's ships.
As expected, these ships appeared from the lower left corner of the sea chart and are currently wandering in the archipelago area.
Such a huge island disappeared out of thin air, and the Death Birthday Society could not fail to notice it, but the timing of their arrival was later than Yang Yi expected, almost 4 days later.
Yang Yi took this opportunity to ask Tricia about the Holy Knight again.
"You really don't know that the Paladin is an artificial life form, and has a deformed organ in its body?"
"I don't know, and this is impossible!"
Tricia denied.
"The Paladins are all trained from selected children, and only the best among them can eventually become Paladins, they can't be artificial life forms.
And since they were young, they will be equipped with an excellent high-level light fairy to guide their growth, and there is no way any polluters will be mixed in..."
She explained, and it seemed that she really didn't know that the Paladin had a deformed organ in his body.
Even if Yang Yi sent her pictures and information about the Giant Knight as evidence, she would only think it was absurd, thinking that the Giant Knight was too irrational and was polluted by the abyss, so he had a deformed organ.
Yang Yi frowned, feeling that she didn't lie, after all, she even changed her beliefs, there was no need to lie.
So it is likely that both are true.
The Paladin is indeed not an artificial life form, but it may be that during the birth or growth process, they passively accepted transformation surgery or similar rituals. In short, they have been transplanted with deformed organs.
Moreover, this matter seemed to be a secret within the Holy Church of Glory, and Tricia's level was not accessible.
She didn't even know that the light fairy accompanying the paladin had a hidden duty besides the duty of supervision and guidance - as a last resort, it was used to reduce the depth of the paladin's pollution and stabilize his sanity.
"By the way, what exactly is the Holy Communion you mentioned?"
Yang Yi suddenly remembered that Tricia had mentioned this thing, so he asked.
"It is a blessing from the Goddess of Glory. Generally, only paladins are eligible to obtain it. I don't know the details."
Tricia is worthy of the name of "erudition". She knows nothing when asked. It seems that she knows a little bit about everything, but when asked specifically, she doesn't know.
Yang Yi guessed that there must be something fishy about this Holy Communion, but he had to contact the Holy Church of Glory to confirm it.
Then he asked how the Holy Church of Glory dealt with those children who failed to become paladins. After all, Tricia said that only the best among them could graduate.
But Tricia still said she didn't know.
".......Maybe they will be exiled." She used herself as an example.
But this is impossible.
Even if they failed to become holy warriors, the strength of those children should not be weak. It is unlikely that they would be exiled. This is unreasonable.
Even the exile of Tricia is strange.
Yang Yi thinks that she may have been sold at a high price by the Holy Church of Light, so she was caught soon after exile and flowed into the market.
..........
More than a hundred miles away.
More than a dozen ships belonging to the Death Birthday Society stopped in the area of the original Crystal Island, patrolling and salvaging.
They are the advance team.
If it is confirmed that there is no abnormality, other ships will come later to do more detailed inspections.
"......Captain, Crystal Island has really disappeared, and there is no sign of crystal disease in the surrounding waters, including the archipelago.
But some bodies salvaged from the archipelago and underwater... How to say, otherwise you should take a look yourself."
A member of the Death Birthday Society wearing a protective suit reported to the captain not far away using a device similar to a mobile phone.
Farther away, there are more than 40 ships here, and the leader is a giant base ship.
If Yang Yi was at the scene, he would recognize at a glance that this ship was almost identical to the triple base ship he had explored outside Crystal Island before, but this one was a quadruple structure and was larger.
There were many Black Crow Guards on the deck standing guard, and there were even special individuals, almost twice the height and size of the Black Crow Guards, with some cables extending from the joints and body surface, like a semi-mechanical body, and equipped with large-caliber thermal weapons.
At this moment, inside the base ship.
The captain was listening to his subordinates report the situation.
"The crystal disease disappeared... That powerful paladin died?"
He said in disbelief, feeling very unreal, just like a dream.
When he detected climate changes in the direction of Crystal Island before, he didn't care too much until his subordinates reported the disappearance of Crystal Island during routine patrols, and he hurriedly gathered a fleet and asked them to explore.
Judging from the feedback, the crystal disease is very likely to have disappeared.
This is a big deal, meaning that a difficult A-level death plague incident has been resolved.
Even if the incident was resolved and had nothing to do with him, he would be promoted two levels, and he would not even need to do this dangerous garrison work in the future.
After all, it is not fun to be infected with the Death Plague. Not many people in his line of work can successfully work until retirement, and the attrition rate has been high.
He will have to work for more than 400 years before he can retire.
The captain's mind floated to the crystal skeleton ship he met not long ago.
If there is a possibility of eliminating the crystal disease, the only one left is that ship.
The other party is likely to be still in this sea area and has not left, otherwise the Bobo fluorescent seaweed would have reacted long ago.
But there is another possibility that the ship was caught in the bad weather caused by the disappearance of the Crystal Island and was buried in the sea with the island.
"Anyway, let's look for it first.
The guys who can eliminate the Crystal Disease will definitely be liked by the higher-ups.
It would be even better if he could eliminate several more Death Plagues by the way."
The captain said to himself, and then issued instructions to his subordinates.
"Search the surrounding area. If you find any suspicious ships, contact me immediately, but don't get into a fight."
He sent an order to the advance team, and finally began to check the photos sent by his men. Their mobile phones have the function of transferring pictures, and can even synchronize to the printer.
"What's wrong with this body?"
The captain barely recognized the remains of a human in the picture. It was slightly decayed, but without limbs. There were no organs or bones in the opened chest cavity, and the eye sockets were empty.
And except for the wound on the chest cavity caused by the knife, there were no other external injuries, as if this person was born like this.
The captain had never seen this strange body before, and even suspected that a new type of death plague had broken out here.
