As Gami could see the scene in the darkness, he immediately controlled the rock-shaking cannon below and aimed.
However, before he could fire, the monster seemed to have discovered the danger, and its huge body sank directly into the water.
Seeing this, Gami couldn't help but curse loudly: "He sank to the bottom of the sea! Damn monster, it's really cunning."
However, other people couldn't see the scene in the darkness at all, and couldn't help much.
It should be night outside at this time, even if the dark clouds above suddenly became thinner, the sunlight could not be projected in.
At this time, Alka suddenly reacted, and hurriedly disassembled the lanterns around him, took out the lighting stones inside, and took out a few stored lighting stones from his ring.
Pile them together.
Four cards immediately appeared in his hand, and he threw them on the deck, and the cards emitted a transparent light.
Four tall mirrors emerged.
The shape of the mirrors changed under Alka's control. The mirrors were combined, refracted, and piled around the lighting stone.
The light was gathered and refracted to form a searchlight beam, which shone on the sea surface.
In an instant, a bright light appeared in the dark night, illuminating everyone.
The searchlight beam locked onto the tentacles that protruded from the sea surface.
With the addition of this beam, everyone was finally able to play their respective roles.
Two more slender tentacles were thrown up.
Several silk threads condensed and shot over to tightly entangle the two tentacles.
Andre jumped up suddenly, with a blue light condensed on his right fist, and then he slammed it hard on one of the tentacles.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and the position that was hit was directly broken, and the whole tentacle fell down.
Sofia also used a whip kick to sweep on another tentacle.
The fluorescent light on the whip leg cut through like a blade, cutting off the tentacles.
The turbid red blood spurted out.
The two tentacles used for attack were directly broken when they met, and the broken tentacles were dragged onto the deck by Vanessa with silk threads.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah!"
The monster was in pain, and the intense pain made it scream with part of its body exposed.
Seizing this opportunity, Gami immediately fired, and several shells were fired fiercely, smashing into the sea.
The splashing water enveloped the monster, and when the splash fell, the sea surface appeared bloody.
Sofia immediately reached out and pressed the side of the boat, and a faint wave of magic swept down.
Turning around and shaking his head.
The monster was not dead, but had already sunk to the bottom of the sea and fled away.
All that was left were two thin tentacles that fell on the deck, still twitching slowly.
"Is this a sea monster?" Alka couldn't help but say as he looked at the two tentacles.
Andre nodded, looked at the two tentacles and said, "This should be a baby of a sea monster."
"Is this still a baby?"
Alka couldn't help but say in surprise.
This tentacle was not a whole one, but was just split in the middle. Then this tentacle was at least as thick as half of Alka's body, and its length reached an astonishing four or five meters.
This was just the part that came up to attack.
The total length of the tentacles was at least 10 meters. Such a huge squid sea monster was actually just a baby.
How exaggerated would an adult one be? It wouldn't be able to smash the sailboat into pieces with just two casual blows.
"There's nothing we can do. It's actually very rare to encounter sea monsters attacking ships in the open sea, but in the Dark Realm, due to the large number of sea monsters, it's not surprising to encounter such things."
While the two were talking, Jamie drove his machine to the twitching tentacles.
A steel tentacle stretched out, as if testing the broken tentacle.
"Unlike the sea monsters in the outer sea, these sea monsters cannot be eaten and can only be used as materials related to various spells."
Andre knew a lot and continued to talk beside him.
After a while, Jamie also nodded.
"These two tentacles are almost full of the power of darkness. They will be very good when used in conjunction with spells related to darkness."
The darkness here generally refers to spells related to the night and shadows, darkness in a real sense, not a negative meaning.
"Okay, okay, let's clean the deck. His blood is mixed with magic and is very corrosive. It's hard for the ship's automatic cleaning to clean this stuff."
Andre said, and walked directly into the small storage room next to him and took out a bunch of brushes and buckets for cleaning the deck.
To be honest, this is the first time Alka has seen this kind of tool that can often be seen on other ships in the few months since he came on board.
Everyone was given a set of tools, and the fourth-level members in the cabin also fetched a few buckets of clean water from below.
Start to clean the blood where the battle on the deck took place.
At this time, Uncle Hamomart and other secondary members can only help on the side.
In Andre's words, this blood stained with darkness is highly corrosive and has certain harm to humans.
Ordinary people who have not become touchers and have no protection are prone to illness if they are contaminated.
Although it may be just some minor illnesses, it is better to reduce trouble as much as possible on such a sea surface.
After doing this, everyone cleaned up the dirt on their bodies and returned to the cabin to rest. They were not in the mood to continue playing cards.
However, this not-so-powerful sea monster cub did smooth out their boredom.
…
September 10, 456th year of the Blood Alliance calendar.
It is getting darker and darker. Now it is difficult to see the sun shining through the dark clouds even during the day.
If it were not for these possible encounters, the light through the clouds would remind us, and there would definitely be a complete confusion in the perception of day and night.
And the Dark Realm is much more dangerous than I thought. Everything here is extremely deadly to ordinary humans.
But judging from the liveliness of the southeast corner, there are countless ordinary people sailing in the Dark Realm hoping to make huge profits.
Wealth can really make people unable to see the reality.
As they get closer to the dark outbreak point, the surroundings become more and more dangerous.
———
Arka stopped writing on the diary and closed it.
"Are you writing the diary these days?"
Lucilia sat on the edge of the bed and asked with her whole body tilted on the bed.
Arka nodded.
"Then will you continue to learn the ancient language of Fogan today?"
"I have studied it all morning. Let's stop here today. I'll go out for some fresh air."
Arka stood up and heard that Arka was going out. Lusilia got into the necklace without hesitation.
As they got closer to the dark outbreak point, they went deeper and deeper into the dark realm.
Now Lusilia was unwilling to come out anywhere except in the room.
Because there are protective spells in the room, and it is airtight.
The dark elements in the air that blow in with the sea breeze will make her feel uncomfortable.
In Lucilia's words, it is as if she is walking through the desert, with the scorching sun burning her skin madly.
Although the damage is definitely not fatal, it will definitely make people feel irritable, and it will become more and more uncomfortable as time goes by.
As Alka came to the deck, even though there were several lighting stones hanging on the deck, it was still extremely dark.
Their destination is in the middle of the entire dark area, and it is still a long way from the core area of the dark outbreak point.
Judging from the speed of navigation, they are basically in the middle now.
The darkness here has made it difficult for the lighting stones to dispel.
A card appeared in his hand.
As the card emitted light, a mirror appeared on the card. Under Alka's control, it became a ring and had different refraction surfaces.
Alka lit the lighting stone and placed it in the middle, and the simple flashlight was ready.
The light refraction of the mirror is quite useful in such a dark area.
"Alka, you are here."
Looking at the formation of such a beam of light, Jason, who was on a simple alert on the watchtower, said.
"Come down, I will take over your alert."
A lantern appeared in the watchtower on the main mast, and then the light source quickly slid down along the zipline.
The light source moved over, and Alka also saw Jason at this time.
Jason now looked a little weak, his hair was a little messy, and even his beard had grown long, but he didn't take care of it.
He looked a bit sloppy. After all, he had been sailing in the dark for such a long time, and he began to pay less and less attention to his image.
He came over and patted Alka on the shoulder: "Okay, you go up, I'll go take a rest."
"Have a good rest."
Alka said, and climbed up along the rope ladder.
The observation tower on the main mast has a relatively spacious space, and it is not crowded to move here.
There is a copper, head-sized small bell on the top.
Once you find something wrong, you can ring this small bell to pass on the sound of the warning.
Usually they rarely come to the alert.
But not now.
The secondary members can't even go up to the deck now, and the spreading darkness will damage their bodies.
So the main members began to take turns to be on alert.
Although nothing can be seen in the darkness, the watchtower can sense the strangeness of the ship, and there is such a spell setting here.
Especially, it can sense the danger within the range of the ship.
"Darkness is really exhausting." Alka couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"It's okay, just like in the mirror."
Lucilia's voice came.
In order to kill the boring time, the two began to chat slowly.
Darkness and loneliness, if no one chats, will make people crazy.
While the two were chatting casually, a beeping sound suddenly sounded below.
A flurry of footsteps appeared on the deck.
Alka's mirror flashlight, which he had been maintaining, immediately shone downwards.
Matt and Lipoka were trying their best to carry Hammer to the infirmary.
Vanessa heard the noise and came out. Seeing the two people's actions, she immediately ran over, hugged Hammer and walked into the infirmary.
Hamer, who was hugged, was still struggling frantically.
He was saying something with his mouth open. Because Alka was some distance away from the deck at this time, coupled with the howling of the wind in the dark, it was not very clear.
"He is saying don't sing, don't sing."
Lucilia's voice, whose hearing would not be affected by the wind, came from the mirror.
"Don't sing?"
Alka was a little confused. What does this mean?
"Didn't your captain say before that darkness would make people's minds abnormal? Maybe he is in this situation now."
Hearing Lusilia's reminder, Alka remembered and nodded.
Yes, it seems that he did say that.
But didn't they say that the ship is safe? This problem may only arise when we have to leave the island.
But on second thought, this warning itself is for those who touch it.
Ordinary people with weaker constitutions and no active magic to protect themselves may also be affected in this way on the ship.
But now Alka is on guard, so he can only calm his curiosity and wait for someone to take over.
