Chapter 379： Ghost Ship, Kraken, Materials

"Colonel Fred, look, there are two boats over there."

"It's really Captain Barrett! Great, they're still alive!"

"Hey, that ship seems to be a pirate ship? Why is the captain on someone else's ship..."

"That's the people from the 'Dawn Regiment'! God, it's really them!"

"The dawn regiment is...?"

"That is the most sincere friend and savior of our adjudication panel!"

"..."

After half a day, Su Lun and the others found a boatload of "Holy Judgment" drifting at sea.

As soon as the two groups converged, the Dawn Group became lively in an instant.

This time, Barrett and the others took the risk to save people in the city-state of Moros, and rescued more than 300 people from slave traders. Together with the previous team members, there were a total of 500 or 600 people.

This is also the last lineage of the "Holy Judgment Legion", the trump card legion of the Luying Empire that has been outstanding for hundreds of years.

These are the real Luying royal elite knights with extraordinary combat power.

However, now there is no jury, only the "Dawn Pirates".

Now the "Dawn Regiment" has instantly become a large group of nearly 1,000 people.

The three battleships are almost full of three squadrons.

Chijo's first team, Dr. Banks' second team, and now Barrett's third team.

This combat power is also the highest among all the pirate groups in the North Sea.

Even if it was rescued without equipment, it doesn't matter, there are a lot of equipment and supplies in the warehouse of the Dawn Regiment. Those were the spoils of war that annihilated several squadrons of the North Sea Fleet, and it was more than enough to equip these hundreds of people.

Sullen and the crew held a grand welcome banquet for the newly joined partners. They brought out the best wine and meat, and the most sincere enthusiasm...

This also brought tears to the eyes of the former royal knights of the adjudication panel.

They once lost their relatives, lost their honor, lost their organization, and lost everything.

Once the whole world had abandoned them, now, the Dawn regiment gave them new hope.

......

Suren and the others wanted to catch up with the Bald Eagle.

I had received information before that the ship was carrying a national gift exchanged by the King of the North Sea to the Marfa Empire.

Now that I know that this "Alcatraz Treasure" incident is 80% a conspiracy, that ship is even more special.

Dr. Banks accurately determined the location of the ship, and found that the ship did not go back to the Marfa Empire, but actually went to the direction of Alcatraz.

This is obviously abnormal.

The three ships of the Dawn Mission also chased after them all the way, wanting to intercept each other before approaching Alcatraz Island.

On the three battleships, everyone is preparing for battle.

Repair ships, maintain artillery, familiarize with equipment, train new members...

Barrett is worthy of being a professional senior general, he has very rich experience in commanding large-scale wars and military training. He completed the manning of three battleships in a short period of time. Everyone has determined a unified code word, command authority, emergency plan, reward and punishment system...

Su Lun looked at it and thought it was very good. The addition of professional soldiers like Barrett can be regarded as a shortcoming of the Dawn regiment.

Although it is not necessarily the same as that of the Royal Knights of Luying, it can save the trial and error of the future development of the Dawn Regiment.

But in a large team, scientific management will make the team more cohesive and have the combat effectiveness of a sharp knife!

Although the Dawn Group is a group that advocates freedom, it will become bigger and bigger in the future, and these must be the way to go.

......

The three warships rode the wind and waves on the sea with extremely fast speed.

"Mr. Hunk, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Oh, no, Miss Karma, the work of pulling the ropes is up to us giants."

"Mr. Tam, can I do something? I'll be..."

"No, Miss Karma. Washing the deck is a dirty job, just let us rough men come."

"..."

Karma's first day on board.

She felt as if it was impolite to stay in the cabin on the first day.

On the deck, she was helping face recognition everywhere, and wanted to integrate and familiarize herself with this new team as soon as possible.

After getting along, she also found that everyone on the boat looked fierce, but they all got along well.

Karma was trying hard to get involved in some of the ship's work, but everyone seemed to have their own thing to do, and she couldn't help anything.

However, people don't know much about them. The domineering sister Qianjo, the mysterious Miss Pandora, the faceless Dr. Banks, the three Hulk brothers of the giant family, and the captain of Yu Hei.

, Captain Somezaki...

After a round of greetings, she found that everyone on the boat was very warm and kind to her, and their attitude was as gentle as family.

Kama naturally knew that this was because he was a disciple of Su Lun.

My teacher's position in the Dawn regiment is very special.

At this time, she saw Lolota practicing swordsmanship on the bow.

Kama remembered that this was a disciple of Sister Qianjo.

Probably because she was about the same age, Karma felt that she seemed to get along better.

They are all orphans now, but they used to be small nobles, and they have a lot of empathy experience.

The two chatted for a while and soon became acquainted.

They sat on the side of the boat, swaying their legs, and their faces showed the charming smiles that are characteristic of girls.

After chatting and chatting, it came to Su Lun.

Karma felt that meeting Su Lun was the luckiest thing in her life.

But since last night, her shock has not stopped. In today's battle, she also saw how terrifying her teacher's strength was.

This is the puppet master in her mind.

But after getting on the boat, Su Lun couldn't see the figure, which made Karma feel a little uncomfortable.

She asked Lolota, "Miss Lolotta, does the teacher usually do this?"

Lolota smiled and said, "Yeah. Mr. Su Lun works very hard. As long as he is on the ship, he will hardly be seen. But if you go to the laboratory to find him, you will definitely find it."

Having said this, she pouted and said, "Mr. Su Lun is the kind of person who is already super powerful and works very hard. I always get beaten on the head by the teacher, saying that I am stupid and don't work hard..."

Hearing this, Karma couldn't hold back a smirk, suddenly thought of something, and asked a question: "Are the teacher and Sister Qianjo lovers?"

Lolota rolled her eyes, "Well...it's hard to say."

Kama was surprised: "Is it hard to say?"

Lolota didn't know how to explain it, and a strange smile appeared on his face: "The relationship between the teacher and Mr. Suren is quite special, and I can't explain it in a few words. Er... You will know later."

Karma: "Oh..."

At this time, on the mast watchtower, Tani suddenly slid down from the cable hanging upside down, "Hey, Miss Karma, my name is Tani, nice to meet you!"

Kama was startled, "Ah... my name is Kama. The teacher introduced you just now, remember your name."

Lolota is obviously very familiar, rolled his eyes, and laughed: "This is Mr. Voyager who loves to cry!"

Hearing this, Tani's face showed a hint of shame, "Lolotta, can you forget about the past..."

Lolota covered her mouth and chuckled, "No."

Karma also smiled without saying a word.

Three teenagers of the same age laughed and communicated on the deck.

The crew looked at them with kind smiles on their faces.

The "dawn" of their dawn regiment will soon grow up and shine.

......

After the welcome banquet, Su Lun stayed in the laboratory transformed from the captain's cabin.

Previously, he intercepted the seventh division, stripped the soul of the "thousand-machine puppet" Vasily Tilmidor, and gained a lot of puppet knowledge.

Although this guy is a vicious, murdered master. But I have to say that his talent in puppet art is really not bad.

Otherwise, as a named disciple, he would secretly learn the secret technique inheritance of the Boyle family, and he also developed a lot of his own puppet stunts, and became a "puppet master".

Su Lun also had to admit that harvesting this wave of experience saved him decades of hard work to hone his skills.

It also made up for his many shortcomings in puppet production, manipulation, and techniques, and even opened up some new ideas.

Although the lineage of organ puppet art also comes from the lineage of puppet masters, it is more excellent in the precision and functionality of puppets.

Just like the stripped [Profound Truth: Thousand Hands] skill, this technique allows people to manipulate puppets to the level of "subtlety", which is more precise and precise!

Su Lun directly stripped this skill with decades of proficiency, and directly brought his puppet manipulation to a great level.

Coupled with the [Puppet Theater], the two mysterious spells complement each other, and the combat power of the puppet army will be very terrifying.

It's not just these gains.

In Surun Vasily's storage ring, he found a large number of inheritance books of the "organism and puppet master lineage", mechanism study, puppet study, secret art...

In addition to the classics, there are also some inherited treasures of the Boyle family, and even two precious [substitute dolls].

Those classics had to be digested by Su Lun himself, which would probably take many years.

But Vasily has been working **** these books before, and the amount of knowledge in his memory is very rich, which is also convenient for Su Lun. [Reaper] The talent is directly stripped, and the knowledge is directly digested in the mind.

This also directly makes the progress of another thing much ahead of schedule.

That is to repair the [Heart of the Organ Puppet] and release his other disciple, Albuquerque.

Originally, Su Lun didn't know much about institutions, and he was not at all sure that he wanted to repair such a top-level alchemy item.

Now I think it's very possible.

Su Lun has gained too much, and he needs a lot of time to digest and integrate knowledge into his "knowledge tree".

So he was in the cabin the whole time, and he didn't go out.

......

The speed of the "Pulau Weng" was a bit bizarre. The three ships of the Dawn Regiment used the Alchemy Array to sail at full speed, and this managed to narrow the distance to dozens of nautical miles.

However, that was two days later.

Su Lun was studying his puppet in the captain's room, and suddenly the observer's warning sound came from the deck: "Everyone, pay attention, there is a suspicious ship ahead!"

As soon as these words came out, the commander on duty also sent an order from the communicator: "Everyone, prepare for battle!"

Su Lun glanced at the thick fog outside the window, instead of staying in the cabin, he also quickly came to the deck.

At this moment, the deck was already full of people.

Su Lun walked to the bow and asked Qianjian, "What's the situation?"

Qianjo pointed to the front and said: "At eleven o'clock, there is a floating ship. We have raised the flag, but they did not respond. It seems that ... there is no living person on the ship."

When Su Lun heard this, a hint of doubt appeared on his face. He took out the monocular and looked in that direction.

At this moment, there is a thick fog floating on the sea.

This is already a dangerous area.

His eyesight was better than others, so he could clearly see where the ship on the opposite side was floating like a ghost.

The flag of the sea ship was hung with the "Skull Flag with Three Musketeers", and the relevant information was reflected in Su Lun's mind at once.

This seems to be a large-scale pirate group called "Silver Gun Pirates", and its strength is not weak. The head of the regiment is a fifth-order professional, with a reward of 110 million "shark sniper" Friedrich, and there are hundreds of people under him.

Su Lun seemed to have discovered something and jumped up the mast. When he looked again, he immediately saw that there was no one on the plywood of the sea-going ship, but when he looked closely, he could find bloodstains and some biological limbs on the side of the ship. shredded. There are also traces that appear to be dragging the corpse.

But strangely, there were no traces of fighting on the ship.

Su Lun's pupils shrank slightly, and immediately said: "Tani, pay attention to the movement in the sea!"

"Yes, Mr. Suren!"

Tari did not dare to be careless, and listened to the movement in the sea.

"Mr. Suren, what should we do now?"

"The 'Steam Ship' and the 'Judgment Ship' stay where they are, let's lean over!"

"it is good!"

Now that you have encountered it, avoiding it is obviously unavoidable.

Su Lun and the others approached cautiously.

With Tani's ability and mechanical octopus swimming quickly under the boat, even if there is any sea monster approaching, they can find it immediately.

......

Suren and their ship approached the Musketeer.

After a dozen meters, the stormtroopers jumped first.

"Captain, no living people were found! No monsters..."

"There is no sign of battle in the cabin either."

"..."

Perception professionals quickly confirmed that there were no signs of life on the ship. As they saw, it was an empty ship.

Su Lun and Chijo also jumped over.

They observed it during overtime, and then walked into the cabin again.

The supplies in the cabin are still there, and the guns are not loaded with ammunition... All indications are that there is no fighting here.

However, the cabin where the crew members rested was a mess, the quilts were lifted everywhere, and there were scattered personal belongings. It was like the sleeping crew members were dragged out of the quilts, and there was no resistance at all.

No one spoke in the cabin, and there was an eerie atmosphere in the air.

Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone felt chills down their spines, as if they were secretly staring at some devil.

At this moment, someone at the bottom of the cabin suddenly shouted: "Boss, a body was found in the bottom warehouse!"

Su Lun and Chijo looked at each other and walked off immediately.

The bottom warehouse is a storage room, where a lot of tobacco, bacon and smoked fish are stored, and the air is mixed with a strong strange smell.

Probably because of these strong smells, the monster ignored the corpse.

Suren glanced at the pirate "sleeping" in the cargo pile, clearly a sentinel.

The deceased was about twenty years old, dressed as a pirate, without any trauma...

Su Lun looked at it, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the abdomen of the corpse, and there was no obvious damage to the internal organs.

He was proficient in forensic anatomy himself, but this strange method of death made him frown and bewildered.

Seeing this, Chijo put one hand on the hilt of the sword and asked, "What do you think?"

Su Lun thought for a while, and said: "The deceased did not have any trauma. It should have been directly killed by means similar to a mental attack, and then the body was transported away. Obviously, it was not a human being, but a monster. They only The corpses were interested, but they didn't move any money or materials. This is the 'Musket Pirates', the strength is not weak, they can kill them quietly, and the monsters who do it are very strong."

After speaking, he added another sentence: "Tell everyone to be careful."

Chijo nodded as well.

The captains behind him also passed on the order.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps resounded in the cabin again, "I heard that a body was found?"

When he turned his head, he saw that it was indeed Dr. Banks walking over.

Su Lun said: "The doctor came just in time. Can you see the specific cause of this person's death?"

Professional things, or leave it to professional people to do.

Dr. Banks nodded and said nothing.

He walked straight to the corpse, observed it first, and then put his hand on the corpse.

At this moment, everyone watched his dark arm as if it had melted, turning into a stream of asphalt-like liquid, which penetrated into the corpse's nose and mouth.

Although Suren knew that Dr. Banks's methods were a bit special, he also twitched his eyelids when he saw this.

However, this effect was excellent. Dr. Banks felt it for a while, as if he had found something, and said, "The time of death was about ten hours ago, probably late at night last night. The internal organs of the corpse and the There were ruptures in the blood vessels, especially in the brain tissue. That's how he died."

Hearing this, Su Lun said in surprise: "Isn't it the result of a mental attack?"

"no."

Dr. Banks said in a very positive tone, "It can cause such a large-scale visceral resonance damage, and some special frequency sound waves can do it."

Hearing this, Su Lun immediately understood something, "You mean, the murderer is the Siren Siren?!"

This is a type of Kraken that usually only appears in legends and is rarely seen.

Because of what they saw, they all died.

Legend has it that it is a sea monster with a human face and a bird body. It has a voice like the sound of nature. It likes to eat people.

The "Song of the Siren" that people pass on by word of mouth usually refers to this.

Humans will die in that wonderful song.

In fact, the legend is very magical, but in essence, that kind of singing is actually a kind of "infrasound wave" that humans cannot hear.

This kind of infrasound has strong penetrating power, can penetrate the atmosphere, seawater, soil, and can penetrate obstacles.

Wooden ships, even steel ships, cannot completely block the propagation of sound waves. It is not easy to decay, and it is not easy to be absorbed by water and air.

Infrasound waves of certain frequencies are similar to or even the same as the vibration frequencies of human organs, and are prone to resonate with the human brain and organs.

Just like the way this corpse died!

The most important thing is... this kind of infrasound wave, the ordinary human auditory system can't hear it at all!

Dr. Banks nodded. "Yes."

Su Lun frowned, but he was relieved.

At least figure out the cause of death, then it will be much easier.

Ordinary humans cannot hear such secondary sound waves, so they are silently killed.

But some people who have awakened the gift of hearing can hear it.

It just so happened that there were people on board who had awakened the talent of [D-032-Hearing Enhancement].

Moreover, even if the ability of the awakened person is not developed enough, and the singing of some high-level sirens cannot be heard, animals can hear it!

Tani can communicate with animals in the sea, and common whales and jellyfish can hear various infrasound waves!

In other words, the "Siren Siren" is not a big threat to the Dawn Mission!

Since there was no threat, a thought popped into Su Lun's mind: puppet material!

Although the "Siren Kraken" has a terrifying singing voice, its actual combat power is very weak.

But their vocal organs are very precious,

No matter how skillful the puppets are, the artificially made things are far less perfect than the natural ones.

This [Siren Siren's Voice] is one of the most ideal materials for making [Wailing Puppets] recorded in the classics of the puppet masters!

......

Dr. Banks analyzed the cause of death of the corpse, and suddenly it changed from a terrorist incident to a normal Kraken attack.

Everyone in the Dawn group breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone is ready, beware of the Kraken attack.

Those with the ability of [Hearing Enhancement] are always on alert, and Tani also pays full attention to the sounds of the sea.

Just in case, all the sentries were replaced with double posts, one with ears sealed with red wax, and the other standing guard normally.

This is the only way to stop the "Song of the Siren" from being heard in the legend.

Su Lun returned to their own ship, the expression on his face still brooding.

Qianjo looked at his expression and asked, "What's the matter, is there any problem?"

Su Lun pondered for a moment, then said his starter, and said: "We came after the 'Bald Eagle'. But in fact, this is not the closest route to 'Alcatraz'. Why is this 'Silver'? The Pirates will be destroyed here?"

Qianjo just didn't like to speculate, and when she heard this, she was keenly aware of something and said, "You mean to say that this 'Silver Spear Regiment' is also for the 'Bald Eagle'?"

"Well. That's the problem."

Sullen nodded.

His information came from Van Gogh's side It is very likely that it came from the Lu Ying royal family, or some major force.

Now on the "Bald Eagle", well-informed people know that Oleg returned the treasures of the Marfa Empire.

There must be a group of people who will come to pay attention to this batch of goods.

He expressed his doubts: "If we guessed correctly, the 'Silver Spears' really came for Marfa's shipment, then...why did they meet dead and the 'Bald Eagle' was still there Continue sailing?"

Qiantiao also thought about it along the way, and said, "If it's not a coincidence, then Mafa and those people may have mastered a way to avoid the Kraken, or prevent the Kraken from attacking? Even... they This is the next?"

The people of the Marfa Empire are not fools.

It is impossible not to take into account the information leakage link.

And their intelligence system is not weaker than the Lu Ying Empire, not to mention that this is the site of the King of the North Sea.

Su Lun's eyes gradually deepened, and all the logic has been roughly linked together in his mind.

He murmured: "I think about it now, it may be that those guys deliberately spread the news, and then used this sea monster to catch everyone in one go."

Qianjo was also amazed and sighed, "It's a good way."

At this time, Su Lun said again: "But for us, it's not entirely bad news."

Chijo looked over with a puzzled look, "Oh?"

Su Lun stared at the sea in the distance and said meaningfully, "After all, real bait is also used for fishing."

After a pause, his pupils twitched suddenly: "There must be a treasure on the 'Pulstine'!" !
