Chapter 379 Malice Under the Deep Sea
Mo Cheng did not sense any creature within his perception range that could pose a sufficiently dangerous threat, or it might be that the other party's distance was beyond his perception range.
This is not surprising. It is not difficult to hide in the vast ocean.
Under the sea is always the best hiding place. Even Mo Cheng has no way to sense something without hindrance through the obstruction of heavy sea water.
"It seems that the sinking of this ship was not caused by hitting an iceberg, but by being targeted by a powerful sea monster."
This guess did not exceed Mo Cheng's own expectations. The size and weight of the steel cruise ship were there. Apart from the bombardment of huge waves over a hundred meters high, the only event that could cause it to sink was an attack by a giant monster in the deep sea.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s a dark area in the deep sea, so people can’t see each other, so their appearances are rather casual. Deep-sea species generally don’t conform to the aesthetic standards of land creatures.
And being able to grow to a huge size under the heavy pressure of the deep sea means that such deep-sea creatures must have powerful strength.
Apart from that, no matter how strong the wind or how heavy the rain is, there is no possibility of shaking the steel cruise ship.
Not to mention that the magic patterns and magic arrays on this steel cruise ship are almost arranged according to the standards of the Mage Tower. When the ocean map was opened in [Foreign Land], this kind of steel ship had an alias called sea fortress.
As the perceived threat disappeared, Mo Cheng knew that the thing might have sensed that the steel cruise ship was not easy to deal with, so it chose to leave.
Shaking his head helplessly, Mo Cheng had no intention of telling this to anyone else, or rather, it would be useless even if he told them.
Before the ship sank, no one would have believed that this unsinkable steel cruise ship would be buried in the sea.
Even if it was Mo Cheng, without knowing future intelligence, he would not think that the steel cruise ship would sink after seeing its configuration.
The sense of danger had completely destroyed his sleepiness, and Mo Cheng couldn't go back to his room to sleep. Since there was nothing else to do, he went to find Lilia and the others.
It didn't take long before he found Lilia and her group of four in a salon.
Because Helena was targeted by a killer, everyone in the group traveled together. Since they were all women and Seranis was one of the leading business families, Helena was also very experienced in socializing.
Along the way, when communicating with Lilia and the half-elf sisters, I was always able to bring up topics that interested them, and even become the leader of the conversation without realizing it.
When Mo Cheng came over, Helena was talking to Lilia and the others about the customs and practices .
"In the Dwarven Kingdom, strong liquor is the best product. But there are certain rules for what kind of strong liquor sells the best."
"For dwarves, strong liquor and forging are equally important. They often like to forge iron when they are hot from drinking, so they don't like strong liquor with a strong aftereffect. The ones that really sell well are those that have a strong impact for a moment but not so strong aftereffect. These are their favorites."
"Halflings are gourmets, and they are extremely picky about the food they make. But if a halfling can share food with you, it means that he regards you as a friend."
"But you have to be careful with halflings' food. After eating too much, you will find that you can hardly eat ordinary food. But halflings only make food as a hobby, and few are willing to be full-time chefs. They are happy to live where they were born, but occasionally they will have the desire to explore the outside world."
Several girls were sitting on the sofa and talking about interesting things from different places, but unfortunately when Mo Cheng arrived, he interrupted the girls' little gathering.
"My Lord, what happened?"
Helena was the first to notice that something was wrong with Mo Cheng's expression. Mo Cheng nodded and did not hide what was about to happen from these people.
"Don't travel alone recently, whether it's Helena or Lilia, when you go out, ask Isabella and Theresa to go with you."
Isabella and Theresa have reached the seventh step. Because they are dragonborn, their basic attributes are much higher than those of humans and half-elves. If they really encounter something, they can at least delay time until Mo Cheng rescues them.
"Big brother, what happened?"
Lilia seldom saw Mo Cheng so serious. In fact, this de facto guardian in front of her was often sloppy and absent every day, and even threw all the work at hand to Loni.
But she seldom saw any serious expression on Mo Cheng's face. He always behaved more like a reliable man who could handle anything with a smile.
"I doubt the ship will come under attack."
There was no intention to hide the fact that Isabella and Theresa were his followers and were naturally in the same camp.
Lilia is the person who has followed him for the longest time since he appeared in this world, and she has absolute trust in him.
As for Helena, on this steel cruise ship far away from the land, Mo Cheng is the only person she can trust.
So when faced with Mo Cheng's alarmist remarks, they at least did not think it was a joke like others did.
Helena did not ask how the information came from, but directly asked: "What do we need to do?"
Mo Cheng pressed the bridge of his nose and said, "Don't be so nervous. This is just my guess. There is a high probability that it will happen, but there is always a small probability that it will not happen."
"I'm just reminding you. There's no need to tell anyone else. This kind of thing has no other meaning except to make people laugh. "
"But don't go out alone, and be careful. You should know these things, so I won't remind you."
…
Just when Mo Cheng was reminding Lilia and others.
Deep below the sea...
In this place that is constantly under the pressure of tens of thousands of tons of water, a pair of cloudy eyes slowly opened.
He looked in the direction of the steel cruise ship and could feel something attracting him.
Through the barrier of endless sea water, his eyes directly observed the monster-like steel cruise ship.
A very powerful creation, but it cannot stop the messenger of the abyss...
With this thought in mind, the figure lightly tapped the scepter in his hand, and the ground under the deep sea suddenly began to tremble and tear apart.
Countless shipwrecks were shattered, and more deep-sea creatures fled into the distance like .
And where countless shipwrecks are piled up, a huge shadow is slowly rising from the deep sea.
"Go ahead."
The figure spoke a language that land creatures could not understand, and the trident-like scepter in his hand pointed at the steel cruise ship.
"Sink that ship and find what's inside."
