Chapter 246 Ghost Ship Blocks the Road

Anyone who is mature enough can see that Mark's [Neutrality] is very subtle.

He made his fortune by killing evil spirits. He can kill evil spirits for profit, but he will not chase evil spirits around in the streets mindlessly. He does not belong to the typical good and lawful camp.

Judging from the way he works in Bolivar, he obviously has his own moral bottom line and will not casually sacrifice civilians to achieve his goals.

Sometimes, he has a flexible moral bottom line.

Although everyone once doubted whether this thing was evil and lawful, after looking at it for a long time, they silently classified it into the category of lawful neutral.

From the fact that he chose to recruit the four goddesses of art who were obviously of no use in the battle between gods, it can be seen that he is a typical person who must avenge his enemies and repay his favors.

Don't take Sese's word for it. In the God War, the goddess of art is a typical negative asset. A truly strong man can use violent means to achieve his goals, and there is no need to serve these useless goddesses.

Mark just did this, not only protecting the goddesses of art, but also protecting their believers.

In the eyes of the major forces, Mark is a complex of contradictions.

His emphasis on friendship was well grasped by Knight.

Since the music and dance goddesses who supported Mark’s money and a small amount of divine items can be accepted, why not the twin goddesses?

With blood and family ties as the bond, the relationship between the twin goddesses and Mark is quite deep.

Knight and Rodriguez decided to buy insurance for their goddess.

After completing Vivian's work, Albert led this so-called private group, which was almost equivalent to an ordinary protective knights, and took a boat to the port of San Marino.

Vivian complained: "Can't we take the land route? Isn't the sea route more unsafe?"

Albert rubbed his eyebrows: "No, it's just the opposite now. The land route is even less safe."

"What's wrong?"

"The entire Wright Empire is in chaos, and only two-thirds of the cities can confirm the situation by sending and receiving telegrams. The last reports coming from the towns that have been cut off from news are not good. Whether it is the official officials of the empire or our church, they are all here Shrink the front.”

Abner frowned: "By sea route, can the Storm Lord ensure our safety?"

The Lord Bishop shook his head: "The recent developments of the Church of Storms are also interesting. They have also reduced the number of ports they control. Except for a few major Leyte ports, they announced the withdrawal of other Storm Church troops. But we have not received any reports that they have suffered major losses. Report."

Along the way, you may encounter a large number of demons.

Taking the sea route is also not necessarily safe.

Especially when Mr. Knight helped Vivian and the others get an armed merchant ship, it felt very suspenseful.

【The Lady Lexington】!

Don't laugh, the captain gave this name to this large cargo ship with a displacement of 2,000 tons.

What's even more amazing is that carrying people is secondary, and cargo is the key.

"Hahaha! Not only did Mark Destiny buy food on a large scale, he also announced that he would protect the cargo ships that joined his fleet. Am I not on the way?" Captain Leeuwenhoek laughed heartily: "Since you are his His family's private soldier, maybe I can get a job as an official in his logistics team. As long as I don't run into any large sea monsters, my boat can hold up."

The so-called "armed" means that there are two old-fashioned 100mm naval guns at the bow and stern of the ship. This is quite luxurious equipment for a merchant ship.

There are five large funnel-shaped warehouses on the hull, three of which are filled with wheat packed in cloth bags, and the remaining two are stuffed with people.

Even the so-called private soldiers plus their families were said to be a thousand people, but in fact there were more than 1,300 people, and only 900 of them could actually fight.

The mix of people here is quite subtle.

Many of them are middle-aged knights in their thirties with their wives and two or three sons who are nearly 20 years old and serve as knights' retinues.

It is not true that this combination does not have immediate combat power. It can be maintained for one or two years at most, and the combat power can be sustained.

Obviously, this is a test to see if Mark will take over.

Just as this group of people was sailing a little worriedly, as the saying goes, what you are afraid of will come.

Early that morning, Leeuwenhoek called Vivian and the others.

"My lords, I have a question!" He handed the telescope to Abner.

Following the direction pointed by the captain, at about 11 o'clock, we saw an unmanned cargo ship that seemed to be floating.

There were no lights or traces of human activity on the silent ship. The gray fog condensed above gave people an ominous atmosphere.

"Can't you avoid it?" Abner asked.

Leeuwenhoek shook his head: "We tried to adjust the course twice. At first, we avoided it, and then in less than an hour, it 'floated' into our channel again. And the distance was getting closer and closer."

Vivian spat: "Since the other party is coming for us, let our Night Squadron board the ship!"

Two Inquisitors, twelve Punishers, and three squads of Night Watchmen. In the past, this configuration was at least that of a provincial capital.

Leeuwenhoek hesitated to speak, and finally nodded: "Be sure to be careful."

A dinghy was lowered onto the cargo ship.

Vivian and the others began to approach the boat that seemed to be drifting.

The closer I got, the more I felt that even the sky on that strange ship was gray, with no clouds or blue sky to be seen.

Even in the daytime, when you look at the peeling paint on the side of the ship, you can vaguely see the thin black mist floating away.

"Humph!" Vivian snorted coldly.

With the utmost vigilance, she used the protruding rivets on the side of the ship to jump onto the side of the ship ten meters above the water in three steps and climbed onto the deck.

She waved her lantern, and the others quickly followed.

The punishers, like phantoms, jumped up lightly, and at the same time lowered a rope ladder for Dida, who was not very mobile, to follow.

"What happened here?" Dida stepped on the deck for the first time and found that the deck was covered with thick plasma-like substance.

The purification troops with rich experience can tell at a glance that this is the residue left after the human flesh and blood has been drained of vitality and soul power.

It's hard to imagine how much blood it would take to make the ground so sticky.

More disgusting question: Why isn't this thing dry?

Abner put on his gloves. After the totem of Lady Night appeared on the back of his hand, he bent down, lightly dipped some of the plasma, and observed: "Some kind of evil-calling ritual! But nothing was summoned, just a simple The earth transforms human life into evil spiritual energy.”

Vivian spat in her heart. Compared with a guy who recruited a random demon general but succeeded in making a comeback, the guy here was a loser.

She gestured, and the Punishers dispersed in groups of three and began rummaging around the ship.

Soon there were reports of finding large quantities of well-preserved flour.

These flours that have been stored for generations have not even been contaminated. Relatively speaking, they seem to have been stored for a long time.

No enemies, no survivors.

"What's going on?" Vivian frowned.
