Chapter 65 Ghost Fleet
Chapter 65: Ghost Fleet
"What? It's sunk?"
The King of Chuang nodded with certainty and said, "I'm sure I hit it at that time, and it shouldn't have appeared here. There must be something wrong with this!"
"Let's get closer and take a look."
The speedboat slowly penetrated into the building. This was a huge water area, larger than the port of Aisinger. Unlike the outside, there were roofs here. In the water area, one by one, one by one, was filled with various warships. Not only were there a large number, but also had a variety of models.
"This ship seems to be my Goddess!" Hongyue suddenly discovered a warship he knew.
I quickly controlled the speedboat and leaned over. "Are you sure it's this?"
Hongyue pointed at the ship's side: "The name is still on it!"
Sure enough, I also saw the name of the ship located on the side of the bow. "Is this ship used before the Goddess League was merged?"
Hongyue nodded. "Yes, this is my previous flagship. But it has been sunk by the Japanese. Why did it come here?"
I turned around and asked the fog sitting behind me. "Why are the power you are talking about our own ship?"
"These are no longer your ships. This is a fleet of confusing fleets, a fleet of ghost ships evolved from sunken ships. All the warships here are ships that once truly existed and were sunk. Each ship has its original name and belonging, but now they are all ghost ships."
Lin Yue, who came with us, asked: "If all the sunken ships come here, then aren't there many ships here?"
Wu corrected: "Not all wrecks will come here. First of all, these ships must be large enough. You see, there are no search ships here that are very small. Secondly, the ships here must be warships, and merchant ships generally do not appear here. But if they are armed merchant ships, it is not certain. Any ship that meets the above conditions may appear here, but it is not certain. This thing is very random. Every warship may appear here and become a ghost ship when it sinks, but it may not necessarily become a ghost ship. After all, this is only so big, and even the wrecks become ghost ships and cannot be installed here."
It seems that this is a place where the sunken warships are randomly transformed into ghost ships, and the function is similar to the Skeleton Conversion Field, a unique building in the dark city. That skeleton conversion field can turn any creature into an undead creature in the form of skeletons. Aisinger originally planned to build one, but there were no drawings! This thing here should be the Ghost Ship Conversion Field. Judging from the number of warships here, it has nearly 500. Based on this number, we roughly estimate the number of large warships produced around the world so far, and the actual conversion probability here may be less than 3%. There are not many warships that can meet the conversion standards here, and with such a low conversion rate, it may be difficult to supplement them in the future.
"This... isn't this the Biling?" The King of Chuang suddenly discovered the new continent.
When I heard Biling's name, Hongyue and I quickly leaned over. Although Biling had crashed, it was once the flagship of our fleet and had always performed outstandingly. The naval personnel of our guild still miss this warship very much, and it actually appeared here and turned into a ghost ship. This news is indeed a bit explosive.
When we gathered next to the warship, I was sure that it was the Biling. After all, it was the warship I commanded for the longest time, so how could I not recognize it? I resisted the excitement in my heart and drove a two-person speedboat slowly approaching the Biling.
I looked at the entire battleship carefully up and down. The Biling, which turned into a ghost ship, looked quite broken, and the wood on the deck and the side of the ship seemed to rot seriously. The one behind the three main masts on the ship was actually poured out, and it was leaning against the mast in the middle. The sea snakeskin sail that was originally used has now turned into several strips of cloth, and the same ragged piece of cloth was now hung at the position where the flag was originally hung. Because there was no wind in the building, the rag flags were tied together and could not see the flags.
"How did the bow image change?" Hongyue suddenly noticed that the bow was a little different.
I immediately looked at the position of the bow image. Originally, the Biling used the Chinese totem dragon statue, but now it was a very strange creature. "What is this?" I couldn't recognize this thing.
Hongyue said in confusion: "It looks like a kirin." King Chuang and Sun Yan also supported this statement.
Lin Yue said: "It seems that it is not a kirin. The Chinese kirin is auspicious. Although its shape is majestic, it does not have much hideous feeling. No matter how you look at this thing, it feels uncomfortable, and it gives people the feeling that it looks very similar to the evil creatures in Europe."
These players lack knowledge and could not tell what it was after working on it for a long time. Even Ling and Phantom said they didn't know it, but Phantom said that this thing was indeed a Chinese creature. In the end, I had to call Xiaolongnu out. If this thing is really something in Chinese mythology, then Xiaolongnu must know what it is.
Xiaolongnu's reaction was exaggerated when she saw that thing. She seemed to dislike this thing very much.
"Do you know this thing?" I asked Xiaolongnu.
"This should be the evil beast Black Qilin guarding the 18th level of hell."
"Black Qilin?" Lin Yue asked, "Is there any Qilin black?"
Xiaolongnu looked at the bow and said, "Usually, the Qilin is colorful, with basically white, gold, green and red as the main colors. Among them, white and gold are more common. Generally, these two colors symbolize auspiciousness and happiness. The red Qilin symbolizes prosperity and harvest. As for green, the four main colors, the Qilin generally does not have solid colors. They are all made of some two as the main colors, and are mixed with some other colors. Monochrome Qilin is rare, and most Qilins have at least 6 to 13 colors on them. In contrast to our divine dragon, the more uniform the color on the Qilin, the stronger the power. The three-color Qilin has basically the strength that gods are very troublesome, and the two-color Qilin is even more powerful. As far as I know, one of the monochrome Qilin has appeared."
Hongyue pointed to the bow of the ship and said, "Is that black one?"
"Yes." Xiaolongnu affirmed everyone's guess. "It should be a good thing to appear monochrome kirins. After all, the kirins are very kind and get along well with most creatures. And they are very sympathetic and often brings many benefits to everyone. Basically, no creatures hate kirins. But." Xiaolongnu emphasized his tone. "Black is an unlucky color, which generally symbolizes death, disease, and decline. So this little kirin was criticized as soon as he was born. Many forces believed that he should be killed before he was young. There had never been monochrome kirins before, and no one knew how powerful his power would be. If it was only golden or red, it would be black."
"He was killed and exiled to the eighteenth level of hell because of his bad color?" Lin Yue guessed.
Xiaolongnu said: "The color alone won't do anything to him, because one third of the three-color unicorns in black have appeared, and the result is very kind and there is no misfortune. So simply black is at most to make others uncomfortable, and no one will really treat him."
"Then how did he go to the eighteenth level of hell?"
"It's because of his horns and teeth. As I just said, Qilin is a kind animal. Although it has teeth, it is all flat and has no canine teeth at all."
"In other words, Qilin doesn't eat meat?" I asked.
Xiaolongnu nodded: "Not only are the teeth flat, but his horns are also similar. Although the horns of the kirin are very large, they are wrapped in a thick layer of flesh like deer antlers. The entire horns are dull and have no edges and have no lethality at all."
Lin Yue whispered: "It's indeed a kind creature."
Xiaolongnu continued: "The problem lies here. Everyone thinks that the horns wrapped in meat pads and the flat teeth are the signs of Kirin's kindness. And so far, the thicker the mat, the kinder the Kirin. But the teeth of this black Kirin are like our dragon, all with barbs and are particularly large. What's worse is that his horns are not only not a little bit of meat pads, but are as sharp as swords. These characteristics were revealed one month after he was born, which scared everyone at that time. No one had seen such a powerful horn. And when he was six months old, everyone discovered that his claws grew outside the flesh. The claws of other Kirins could be retracted like cat claws, but his claws were sharp and long but could not be retracted."
"That is to say, a freak emerged from the Qilin."
"Absolutely." Xiaolongnu nodded again. "Everyone was panicked and thought it was a sign of the heavenly tribulation. Later, some gods proposed to kill the Black Kirin, but some gods opposed it. The two sides were in a stalemate. Finally, they decided to keep him to guard the eighteenth floor hell. He actually only had seventeenth floors, and the eighteenth floors were not connected. The eighteenth floors were a one-way space, and they could only enter but not exit. No matter who entered, they would not come out. Therefore, there was a saying that they would never be promoted to the eighteenth floor hell forever. The black Kirin said that he was sent to guard the eighteenth floor hell, which was actually equivalent to being permanently exiled."
I concluded: "That is to say, this black unicorn is the most evil and unlucky thing?"
Xiaolongnu said: "Usually, that's what I think."
"Then what does it mean to equip this thing on this ship?" Sun Yan asked a very stupid question.
I said, "This means that these ships are the most unlucky things like the Black Kirin. Whoever touches them will be unlucky."
Hongyue smiled and said, "That's right, it's quite suitable for you."
"What are you silly?"
"You guess." Hongyue smiled and controlled her speedboat to lean up towards the Biling, and we followed.
Lin Yue wanted to go up the battleship to take a look, so she leaned against the anchor chain and wanted to climb up along the anchor chain. When the speedboat arrived next to the anchor chain, Lin Yue jumped up, and the fog sitting behind my speedboat quickly shouted: "Don't...!" Unfortunately, it was too late! Lin Yue had already jumped out, and just when she was about to catch the anchor chain, she suddenly found that the anchor chain could not be caught. With a puff, Lin Yue fell into the water in a mess, splashing our heads and faces were covered with water.
We all found something wrong. Sun Yan drove the speedboat over to pick Lin Yue up, while King Chuang stopped the boat next to the anchor chain. He reached out and tentatively fished it, but his hand easily passed through the anchor chain. "This is an illusion!" King Chuang said to us.
I opened the ability of Xingtong to break the illusion, but I saw a warship floating there in black gas. The fact that I could see the entity was not an illusion, but I really couldn't touch it!
Wu explained: "The ghost ship has no entity, so it cannot be touched."
"Then can't this ship be loaded with people?"
"You can't pretend anything except ghosts. Because there is no entity and you can't bear the load."
"No wonder it's called the ghost ship!" Lin Yue climbed up from the water like a chicken falling from the water.
I suddenly thought of a question. "Mist, aren't these warships not afraid of shells without entities?"
"That depends on what kind of cannons. Cannons, crossbows, catapults, and collision angles that use physical damage cannot damage the ghost ship. There is no entity anyway, so physical attacks are completely immune. However, magic weapons such as magic crystal cannons and spell cannons can damage the ghost ship."
"What about the weapon? What about the power? What about the crew? What about the supplies? This thing is not physical and many things cannot be realized, right?" The question of King Chuang is much more professional.
Wu replied: "The crew of the ghost ship must use ghosts all, as long as they are undead creatures without entities. For example, ghosts, advanced lichs, spirit bodies, spiritual bodies, etc., as long as there is no entity. In terms of power, they are actually all in shape. Sails and thrusters are all decorations, and the movement of the ship depends on the undead's thoughts rather than thrusters. The ghost ship is very fast, and when you come, you also see the speed of the Treasure."
"That's right."
"Supplying is easier. Ghost ships do not need supplies at all and can continue to sail. And are they weapons? We use undead cannons, which are quite powerful. They can generate magical impacts on targets, which is equivalent to the principle of magic crystal cannons, but they are much less powerful."
I held my finger and said, "That means that the ghost ship uses ghost driving, ignores physical damage, has a very high speed. The firepower and range of ordinary warships do not require supplies or power. Am I right?"
"That's right. In addition, there is another thing that we have the fog of confusion to protect us."
"Is that treasure considered a ghost ship?"
"The Treasure is a ghost ship, not a ghost ship, and its attributes are roughly the same. However, the ghost ship has an entity, while the ghost ship has no entity. This is the main difference."
Although these ghost ships are not particularly powerful, their attributes are very special and are very suitable for some special tasks. For example, what we need to do immediately - intercept the transactions between the Japanese and the Great White Sharks. I think the Japanese should not have much suitable things to deal with ghost ships. At that time, just use heavy fog to disrupt their fleet, and then we lean up and evacuate their ships one by one, and finally set fire to it... Hehehehehe...
Look at the time, it's almost 4 o'clock, and it's still 4 hours away from the trading time for the Japanese. I immediately said, "Are there any ghosts here now? I want these warships to join the battle right away."
Wu was a little embarrassed: "There are many ghosts here at present, but...!"
“But what?”
"But they were all suppressed under the seal, and their consciousness was already in chaos. It may take a long time to restore these ghosts to combat power."
"Take us to have a look first."
"Oh well!"
Following the fog, I found a clearing ground with an obelisk erected by a ruin. The fog stopped. "This is a mass pit below. The companions who were not captured at that time were slaughtered here. The Temple of Light knew that these people were unwilling to die and would definitely become unjust souls, so this magic array was built here to suppress the undead. This array will gradually eliminate the willpower of the unjust souls below, so even if they are released, they will be confused and must slowly absorb the power to return to normal."
Ling walked over and said, "Are you sure there are the undead we need below?"
Wu said with certainty: "I'm sure."
Ling said: "Then dig it out! I have a way to quickly restore the undead's state. As a former Dark Goddess, this small problem cannot defeat me."
What a blessing. We actually forgot that big man Ling, who is a goddess, should be able to deal with this little thing. The next thing is to destroy the seal. This is simple, I am the best at destroying it. I used eternal ease to knock down the obelisk and made more than a dozen large and small holes on the ground in a few seconds. As long as the magic circle is destroyed, it will not be able to operate. I made the ruins here and successfully stopped the operation of the seal.
The next job is to dig. The ghosts were sealed underground by a large amount of blessing silver and magic wax. They would not get out of them without getting some of these things. The work of digging holes still requires large creatures to come quickly. A few dragons except for luck were summoned to help dig holes.
