Chapter 39: Horror Cruise This brat is adamant! ...
Isaac gave an impassioned speech, and as soon as he finished, the kid in front of him yawned.
Isaac: “…”
Isaac snorted, very unhappy with Gu Rong's lack of support.
This was a bit unfair to Gu Rong. Although Gu Rong yawned, he was listening to Isaac's speech very seriously.
But he is small and only sleeps about 13 to 14 hours a day. These days, he not only has to run around the ship to complete tasks, but also has to ferry the furry cubs back and forth, which is really tiring.
His image can be described as a "working man".
Gu Rong was drowsy, but she still remembered the mission. She said in a tender voice, "Since you don't have a captain, can I be the captain?"
Isaac: “…”
This kid just won't listen to anything!
Could it be that he just said a bunch of nonsense, completely jokingly talking to the kid?
All the crew members were silenced by Gu Rong. This kid actually wanted to be their captain!
Considering Sophia's last words before her death, all the crew members fell into deep thought.
Sophia once said that the key to lifting the curse of immortality lies in the Nicholas family, so she asked them to find the second prince.
Now there are only two cubs left in the Nicholas family, one is the little prince of the Star Sea Continent, and the other is the little cub in front of him.
If this cub can help them break the curse of undeath, it seems reasonable for him to become the captain...
The crew members were still analyzing the pros and cons and were hesitant.
But the little kid in front of him was yawning repeatedly, so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyelids. His little head was nodding, and he was about to fall asleep on the chair.
Gu Rong: zzz
Crew members: “…”
What on earth is this little cub doing here?!
*
In the captain's room of the Pharaoh, the king, the captain and Jameson all looked solemn.
Lin Xuezhuo and Xiao Lin were also there. They looked at the sea shrouded in black fog in silence.
The atmosphere was dull and no one spoke for a while.
"General Alpha, Mr. Mori, what do you think about the cub falling into the ghost ship?"
Louis XIII spoke first, his expression gloomy and his tone unclear whether he was happy or angry.
Alpha was once a famous general, and the king was used to calling him general instead of captain.
Captain Alpha's beard was gray, and he looked really old. If he were young, he would not have hesitated, but now he was full of worries and could not make up his mind.
He has a favorability of 50%+ towards Zizi and Rongrong respectively. After several contacts, his favorability has increased a lot.
He couldn't help but worry about his baby.
Jameson sat in a wheelchair, his trouser legs empty from where he had lost his legs, and in his mind was the ghost version of the "Pharaoh" covered with flowers.
When he designed the "Black Goat of the Forest", he designed two exactly the same ships. Because General Nicholas had twins, the "Black Goat of the Forest" was the gift he gave to General Nicholas's children to celebrate their one-month anniversary.
Later, the royal family wanted to explore the deep sea ghost cave, and the "Black Goat of the Forest" was one of the only two cruise ships that could enter the deep sea ghost cave.
Not only the Devil Shark, but any fish monsters in the deep sea den cannot attack the "Black Goat of the Forest".
Because the materials used for the "Black Goat of the Forest" come from ores in deep-sea dens.
The deepest part of the deep sea ghost den is buried with rich minerals, which is why the Star Sea Continent spared no manpower and resources to explore the deep sea ghost den.
At the beginning, the Deep Sea Ghost Den was not called the Deep Sea Ghost Den, and there were no devil sharks and various fish monsters in the ghost den. It was just a sea area where it was very easy to get into danger.
Jameson was the mining leader at that time. He was lucky enough to collect a huge amount of ore from the seabed. Not only that, the Soul Ring and Soul Sword were also found in the center of the ore.
In addition to the Soul Ring, the Star Sea Continent's national treasure also includes a Soul Sword, both of which originated from the deep sea ghost den.
Jameson presented the Soul Ring and Soul Sword to the royal family, and used the steel mined from the ore to forge two ships, which he presented to General Nicholas.
However, after the Soul Ring and Soul Sword were taken away, the Deep Sea Ghost Den was completely turned upside down. Not only did devil sharks appear, but black fog also filled the previously normal sea area, and the Deep Sea Ghost Den was completely plunged into eternal night...
Jameson's legs were bitten by a devil shark during the evacuation. There were 2,000 people on the cruise ship, but only 23 survived, and he was one of them.
The ghost ship was once also known as the "Black Goat of the Forest".
She has the same design as the Pharaoh, like a "twin", but now she has become a ghost ship. The skeleton of the ship is still there, but the flesh and blood have decayed away.
Jameson pondered and said, "If we want to take back the Second Prince and the Soul Ring, I'm afraid we can only rely on the Soul Sword."
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere became even more tense.
After a while, King Louis XIII ordered someone to bring the Soul Sword.
The Soul Sword was placed in a carefully crafted sword box. When the box was opened, a pitch-black sword lay quietly inside, with a dense black mist lingering on the sword.

Ghost ship, Gu Rong stretched out his body on the sofa and fell into an immersive sleep.
The crew members gathered around the sofa, watching the little cub sleeping as if no one was around, and they all felt complicated.
Crew member Hall said, "Are we really going to let this little cub be the captain of the little boat?"
Another crew member asked sincerely, "If we make him the captain, can we lift the curse of undeath?"
Hall shrugged: "Who knows."
“But it’s worth a try.”
Isaac said.
He was sitting by the fireplace, drinking a bottle of rum. The bottle was dirty, and his skin and clothes were dirty too, perfectly blending in with the ghost ship.
The outside of the ghost ship was covered with rose branches, and the skeletons in the cabin were also made up of skulls. Those skulls originally had their eyes closed, like dead ornaments, but at this moment, one after another, they slowly opened their eyes, and their eyeballs rolled around.
The skeletons woke up and looked at the little cubs sleeping in a "big" shape on the sofa.
"Ohhhh, isn't this General Nicholas's child?"
"What a cute little baby! We are a gift to General Nicholas's child. Ultimately, we want to pass it on to General Nicholas' twins. The other Black Goat is still in the Star Sea Continent. It was given to the little prince, so naturally we have to pass it on to the second prince!"
"Hahahaha, that's right, we have to pass it on to the second prince!"
"The Second Prince wants to be the captain, let him be. The Second Prince is our captain!!"
"Little Captain, Little Captain!"
The skulls can actually talk.
What's even more bizarre is that they actually still remember their origins and remember that they were created as gifts for General Nicholas' children.
When they saw Gu Rong, they were like they had found their little master, and they quacked and asked Gu Rong to be their little captain.
Hearing the chattering of the skeletons, the crew members scratched their ears, feeling annoyed by the noise.
But the crew members are becoming increasingly hesitant. If Gu Rong can really help them break the curse of immortality, then why not let him be their captain?
Gu Rong finally woke up to the chirping sound of the skull.
The little cub woke up, stretched lazily, slurred his breath, raised his little hands and rubbed his eyes.
As soon as they saw Gu Rong wake up, all the skulls shut up instantly and fell silent, but their eyes were bigger than copper bells, staring at the little captain.
As soon as Gu Rong woke up, he met the crew's gaze, and then saw a skull with staring eyes.
Gu Rong blinked his big eyes, and after a while, he tilted his little head, seeming to be very surprised. These skulls had closed their eyes before, but now they are all open.
Gu Rong sat down from the sofa, walked to a string of skulls, patted the skulls' heads with his little hands, and wanted to touch their eyeballs.
The skull closed its eyes in time and escaped the disaster, shouting: "Oh, my eyes are going to be blinded!"
Gu Rong screamed, opened his mouth into an O shape, and then started patting the skulls all over the cabin. He patted this one, and the skull rolled its eyes. He patted that one, and the skull grinned.
The crew members just watched Gu Rong playing with the skull.
This kid... is so brave!
I'm not afraid of a moving and talking skull at all!
[These skulls are so lucky to be patted on the top of their heads by little kids!]
[Hahaha, send my head over and let the kid use it as a paddle!]
[Then send my head over and let the kid kick it around like a ball!]
…
Gu Rong was a child at heart. He took pictures of the skull for a while and then stopped.
After a good sleep, his little belly was so hungry that Gu Rong asked 006 to buy him a bottle of milk, which he drank with his short little hands.
The crew members' attention was always on Gu Rong.
Everyone was stunned when they saw him take out a bottle of milk from somewhere.
This kid seems to be unusual, at least not an ordinary child.
Being the captain of a ghost ship... doesn't seem out of place.
What Gu Rong didn't know was that by the time he woke up from a nap and drank a bottle of milk, the crew members had basically finished conquering themselves.
Isaac looked at the little boy in front of him and said, "Little boy, why do you want to be our little captain?"
Gu Rong thought about his mission and clenched his fists: "Kid, you have to lead the Pharaoh into the ghost cave!"
Isaac: “…”
Everyone: “…”
Oh shit!
This kid actually knows about ghosts and goblins?
Not only did he know about the ghosts and the den, but he also knew their battle plans?!
That's right, the crew's battle plan was to lure the Pharaoh into the ghost den beneath the deep sea, then capture the enemy in one fell swoop and take the Pharaoh away.
The Pharaoh was originally General Nicholas's cruise ship and did not belong to the Star Sea Continent. It was time to return it to its original owner.
The two Black Goats of the Forest will eventually belong to the Deep Sea Demon Cave.
They originally came from the deep sea ghost den, and beneath the deep sea ghost den, the souls of Nicholas's clan were buried.
The more the crew members looked at Gu Rong, the more they felt that he was unusual.
After several ideological struggles, the crew finally compromised.
Isaac smiled and said, "It's not impossible for you to be our captain, but the Ghost Ship is different from the Pharaoh. It has its own thoughts now. If you can command this ship, we will let you be the captain."
In fact, he was completely letting the game go.
The ghost ship is made up of countless skulls, and just now when Gu Rong was sleeping, the skulls were already chirping and wanting to surround Gu Rong and be their captain. Now letting Gu Rong command the ghost ship is equivalent to letting him command these skulls.
Whenever Gu Rong said a word, these skulls would rush over to follow.
Gu Rong was young and didn't quite understand: "How do I do it?"
Thor interrupted, "It's very simple. You can make the ghost ship change its appearance according to your wishes. If it can obey your orders, it means that this ship has accepted you. We will naturally accept you as our captain."
Gu Rong understood, stomped her feet and let out a "Hey".
Crew members: “???”
What does it mean?
This is actually just a meaningless fake action of the child. Gu Rong is a lively kid, so naturally he moves more.
Thor said, "Let's go to the deck first."
If you want to see the changes in the ship's appearance, you can't see it from inside the cabin.
Gu Rong walked with his short legs and followed everyone to the deck.
At this time, the Pharaoh and the ghost ship were still a hundred meters apart, facing each other quietly.
Everyone on the Pharaoh was also holding telescopes, observing everything about the ghost ship. When they saw Gu Rong walking out of the cabin, the king and the captain's expressions changed immediately.
The crew members of the ghost ship have become dead. They don't need any telescopes at all. They can see everything about the Pharaoh clearly.
They sneered, their dark faces filled with ridicule and disdain.
Gu Rong finished his milk and was eating a lollipop. Thinking of the name of the ship, "Big Black Sheep," he said in a tender voice, "Turn the ship into Big Black Sheep!"
Crew members: “…”
Oh, it's the Black Goat, thank you.
As soon as he finished speaking, the skulls chirped and rearranged themselves, changing from the shape of the Pharaoh to the shape of a black goat. The ship was still covered with rose branches. A black goat, the size of a giant ship, with flowers blooming on its body, stood quietly on the sea shrouded in black fog. It looked shocking, mysterious and weird.
The black goat's eyes even moved, dark and deep, looking quietly at the Pharaoh not far away.
Everyone on the ghost ship: “!!!”
Everyone on the Pharaoh: “…?!”
Everyone on the Pharaoh was shocked by this scene, and at the same time, they were being watched by the Black Goat Cruise, and a dense sense of terror welled up in their hearts.
Gu Rong exclaimed, started playing, and said, "Turn into a giant octopus!"
The "Black Goat" disintegrated and reorganized again, turning into an octopus with eight giant tentacles, its size equal to that of the Pharaoh. Those giant tentacles were still wriggling and floating on the sea, which was several times more terrifying than the Black Goat just now.
This is literally a living giant octopus.
Not only were everyone on the Pharaoh stunned, but the crew members of the ghost ship were also stunned.
They only knew that the ghost ship could change its shape at will and that it was a truly terrifying cruise ship, but they had never seen it with their own eyes.
As for why they knew it, it was naturally the skeletons themselves who chattered about it. The crew members were despised by the skeletons on a daily basis. There were 3,000 people on the ghost ship, but no one could find the second prince who could drive the ghost ship.
snort!
Gu Rong clapped his hands and pointed at the big octopus. The little guy loved cool things the most, and from this moment on, he was the captain of the ghost ship.
Gu Rong: "Giant squid!"
The skulls: "..."
No, don't we look like squids? Is this a mistake?
