Chapter 556 Blood Beast
In the afternoon, the huge ship continued to sail on the sea. At this time, Dorothy was sitting in her cabin, using a small corpse doll to monitor the scene in another cabin in the distance. After a series of reasoning and searching, Dorothy finally found her target, the other cult extraordinary people hiding on the ship, who showed obvious concern about the abnormal behavior of the crew at sea.
"Are you sure all traces have been dealt with? If that's the case, then what did those beasts find? There are rumors among other beasts that someone died on the ship!" In the cabin, the middle-aged man asked the young man in front of him, and the young man simply spread his hands and did not answer.
"Who knows? There's more than just Nicodo's room on that corridor. What if some mortal in another room was killed? I've already cleaned up Nicodo's remains. There's no way anyone would find his body."
Facing the questioning of his companions, the young man spoke quite innocently. Listening to the young man's words, the middle-aged man paused slightly, and then continued to speak in a deep voice.
"No matter what... our operation must be kept strictly confidential. We cannot let Mon Carlo find out anything. No matter why those mortals blocked the corridor, we must confirm it clearly."
"Okay... then without further ado, let's get started and confirm the situation."
The young man responded to the middle-aged man. After that, they secretly discussed some details in the cabin and then left the room, going to other places on the ship in various directions.
Seeing this scene, Dorothy took out a special small corpse doll to follow the two of them, and at the same time, she began to think in her heart.
"It seems... that's them, the other extraordinary people hiding on this ship, Nicodo's companions... No, judging from their attitude, Nicodo doesn't seem to be treated as a companion, but as a blood animal..."
Dorothy thought to herself that after being immersed in the secret world for quite some time, she still had some knowledge of what blood animals were. In some files of the Holy Communion, the so-called blood animals and meat animals referred to living people secretly raised by the "Cup" knots for consumption. Unlike prey that were eaten immediately after being killed, these animals were usually raised by the "Cup" knots in various special ways, so that the meat on their bodies had special features that ordinary people did not have, or was more delicious, or had a higher spiritual conversion rate. Just like some people took great pains to breed special beef cattle for better-tasting steaks, the existence of blood animals and meat animals was the animals carefully raised by the "Cup" knots.
"So... what do these 'Cup' followers want to do by secretly bringing blood animals to Mon Carlo? It seems that we need to continue to uncover the secret... whether it is directly or indirectly..."
Dorothy thought so, and then she continued to monitor the actions of the two "Cup" believers while beginning to prepare a plan to deal with them.

Time flies, and soon the sun in the sky once again approaches the sea level in the west. The dim light of the setting sun shines on the broad sea level, making it sparkle.
After leaving the cabin, the two "Cup" cultists lurking on the ship immediately began to move around, inquiring and searching for information about the blocked corridor in room 417. Since the crew members were all mortals, the two of them used some covert methods and quickly got the information they wanted.
After getting the intelligence, the two gathered at the stern, in a deserted corner, and began to exchange information. After confirming that the room where the accident occurred was indeed 417, both of them showed obvious surprise on their faces.
"It's Nicodo's room. There's a problem with Nicodo's room! You said you had taken care of all the traces! Now even the body was found. You call that a cleanup?!"
Standing by the railing on the side of the ship, the middle-aged man looked at the young man in front of him and whispered in a tone of obvious reproach. Listening to the middle-aged man's words, the young man looked distressed, with obvious confusion in his eyes.
"That's not right. There's no reason... I clearly dissolved Nicodo's body and brought all the bones here. There's no reason why there would be a body found..."
Looking at the surging waves on the sea in front of him, the young man murmured in disbelief, and the middle-aged man on the other side spoke again.
"No reason, no reason... Now is not the time to think of any reason or no reason! Someone died on this ship and we will be strictly investigated by the people over there when we arrive in Mon Carlo. Mon Carlo is a place where law enforcement agencies are integrated with the public. If they come to investigate, they might find us! Let's think about how to deal with them now!"
The middle-aged man said this in a stern voice. After hearing this, the young man's expression froze for a moment. Then he glanced at the setting sun in the distance and continued to speak.
"I must have dealt with Nicodo's body cleanly at the beginning. Now he suddenly appears again. There must be some extraordinary person behind this. Let's find him and find a way to make him take the blame for us..."
"Other extraordinary people...how to find them?" The middle-aged man frowned and said as he listened to the young man's words, while the young man had already thought of something and continued to speak.
"Didn't those mortals say that there's a guy claiming to be a detective investigating this case? The fake corpse just showed up, and a detective came to investigate. Isn't this a bit too coincidental?"
"You mean... that detective is the extraordinary person behind this?"
"It's possible! As soon as his body appeared, he immediately asked the sailors to help him investigate. The appearance of the fake body could help him get help, so he might be the extraordinary person who did it. Now we should go find trouble for him and see if we can use him to stop Mon Carlo's investigation. If not, we have to kill him and make him pay the price."
The young man spoke with a confident look on his face. After listening to his words, the middle-aged man beside him couldn't help but think for a while and nodded, seeming to agree with the young man's opinion.
Afterwards, the two of them finalized a plan against the detective who suddenly appeared. Then they left the stern and went below deck, preparing to go back to their own cabin to further finalize the details of their plan.
In this way, the two of them walked along the corridor while talking. Just when they came to a deserted corridor, a figure appeared in front of them.
She was a seemingly ordinary Beiwu woman wearing a plain Beiwu robe, a headscarf and a face scarf, and was tightly covered. She walked out from the corner of the corridor in front of the two men, and then walked towards the two men at a normal pace. Since there were many Beiwu passengers on the ship, the two men did not pay any special attention to the scene before them.
Just like that, the Beiwu woman and the two people from the “Cup” sect walked towards each other on this empty corridor, getting closer and closer. Finally, after they walked side by side in a line, they each walked away with their backs to each other.
However, just when the figures passed each other for a moment, the eyes of the usually quiet Beiwu woman under her headscarf suddenly condensed, and her body suddenly exploded forward. She turned around in an instant and pulled out a dagger from her pocket. Holding the dagger, the woman stabbed quickly at the middle-aged man who had his back to her.
At this moment, the middle-aged man also felt the violent disturbance of the water vapor spreading around his body. Sensing the danger, he frowned and immediately turned around. When he turned around, he saw the dagger rushing towards him.
Seeing this scene, the middle-aged man's eyes widened, and then he quickly stretched out his hand towards the attacker, and caught the attacker in just a moment. However, when his hand touched the skin of the Beiwu woman's wrist, a tingling and numbness immediately spread from his hand to his whole body. He couldn't help but shiver, and he had grasped the woman's hand tightly, but he couldn't hold it tightly due to a spasm. The woman's powerful strength instantly broke free from the middle-aged man's grasp.
"Varied……"
