There are no guards here because no one except the captain dares to step into this area.
The last time someone dared to break in here alone was Xi Wenjun. This time, in addition to Xi Wenjun, there were three more people.
Although Lin Mo can now restrain the captain's "Eye of Fear", he is still cautious for the sake of safety. After all, no one knows whether there are other nightmares hiding in the captain's area.
It is better to be safe than sorry.
Lin Mo is the typical example of a person who is bold but careful.
But along the way, I didn't find any danger.
But the captain was not found either.
"He must be hiding." Lin Mo made an immediate judgment.
If this had been said in the past, no one would have believed that the terrifying Captain of the Glutton would actually hide from an ordinary person. It was totally impossible, but now, this is the fact.
Nie Hong and the others saw with their own eyes how Lin Mo beat up the captain. He was beaten to a bloody mess. It was only because the captain was tough that someone else would have been beaten to death.
At this moment, Lin Mo was already wearing the Ouroboros ring on his right index finger.
He didn't know the details of the ring, but Nie Hong knew.
"This is the Ring of Greed, which comes with the Greed Curse. This curse does more harm than good to ordinary people or ordinary nightmares, because when they put on the ring, it will immediately affect their mind and turn them into a greedy monster. But for you or me, the effect of the Greed Curse is minimal, so the benefits are greater."
"For example, you can no longer be afraid of being tainted by the two curses of 'jealousy' and 'lust', which have serious negative effects. For another example, you can withstand more curses."
Lin Mo's eyes lit up when he heard this.
This is a good stuff.
I didn’t know it before, but now that I know, of course I have to wear it.
What a pity, I can only wear one.
If there were no restrictions, Lin Mo planned to wear both Rings of Greed.
Since there was one extra, Lin Mo asked Nie Hong and the others who wanted it.
Xi Wenjun didn't like it, and the butcher didn't say anything, so Nie Hong snatched it away and put it on her own ring finger.
Lin Mo didn't notice this detail because the first thing he did after putting on the ring was to take out his yellow paper and check it.
He found that the yellow paper was indeed several centimeters longer than before.
It has become bigger.
In other words, the yellow paper that originally could only carry sixteen curses can now add some more curses, probably two or three.
This is indeed good news.
The Ring of Greed is indeed greedy enough.
Carrying more curses, if used properly, the strength will naturally be stronger, and the 'Curse of Greed' that comes with the Ring of Greed is equivalent to an additional addition.
nice one.
No wonder the Countess and the Captain both have such rings.
But where did they get it from? Ask Nie Hong, who says there is a special nightmare on the Glutton, the Ringsmith.
It should have been made by this ring craftsman.
As for the location of the ring craftsman, Nie Hong was not sure.
The next step was to look for the captain, but after searching for a while I couldn't find him.
"Are you trying to play hide-and-seek with me?" Lin Mo laughed.
As he took out the pencil, he shouted, "Don't hide, I can see you, come out."
This is the trick to playing hide and seek.
If you didn't find it, you might pretend to have found it to undermine the other person's confidence and maybe trick him out.
Of course, this possibility is extremely small. Lin Mo just shouted out out of habit. If he really wants to find the captain's hiding place, he still has to rely on Xiaoyu.
Ever since Xiaoyu came into being, Lin Mo has never lost when playing hide-and-seek.
Before Lin Mo could call Xiaoyu out, there was a creaking sound on the wall, and a secret compartment opened. The captain walked out by himself, covered in dust.
Everyone was silent.
Did he really trick it out?
Lin Mo felt that there was something wrong with this captain's brain.
But that's normal. Many nightmares cannot be viewed from an ordinary person's perspective. Sometimes, the things they do are indeed incredible.
"Close your eyes!" Nie Hong shouted immediately.
Just because Lin Mo is not afraid of the captain doesn’t mean they are not afraid. Except for Lin Mo, the captain is still the most terrifying existence in the eyes of everyone else.
At that moment, Nie Hong, the butcher and Xi Wenjun all closed their eyes.
Anyway, with Lin Mo around, Captain Liang can't do anything new.
This is indeed the case.
The captain did come out, but did not come over. He just looked at Lin Mo from a distance, with anger and a hint of aggrievedness in his fearful eyes.
Since its birth, it has never suffered such a great loss or such a heavy beating.
Although he didn't want to admit it, the captain already had a shadow in his heart towards Lin Mo.
According to Lin Mo's original plan, he was going to kill the captain.
Kill them and put an end to it all. You won’t have to worry about the other party’s revenge in the future.
But after discussing this matter with Nie Hong and the others, Lin Mo learned another thing. The Glutton had no captain in the beginning.
The whole ship was in chaos and there was no order at all.
With the captain in place, things are obviously much better.
Although everyone had to be enslaved by the captain, there was at least some basic order, which was better than the disorderly chaos at the beginning.
If the captain is killed, the Glutton will fall into chaos again.
Even the normal operation of the routes cannot be guaranteed.
So what Nie Hong and the others meant was that instead of killing the captain, it would be better to reach some kind of agreement with the captain.
This requires Lin Mo and the captain to discuss.
Lin Mo walked over and pulled the captain into the small dark room next to him.
This time, after talking for more than an hour, Lin Mo opened the door and asked Nie Hong and the others to leave with him.
After leaving the captain's area, Lin Mo simply said, "It's settled. The captain is a reasonable man. I told it that from now on, we can go wherever we want and do whatever we want on the ship. If it cooperates honestly, it will still be its captain comfortably. If it doesn't cooperate, or plays dirty, if it happens once, I will beat it to death next time."
This is not a negotiation at all, it's simply forcing the captain to submit.
But the captain agreed.
There was no way to disagree. The most powerful Eye of Terror could not affect Lin Mo, and he could not win in hand-to-hand combat. Even if the captain was unwilling, he had no second choice.
In this way, Lin Mo and his companions would not be in any danger on the ship.
Basically, do whatever you want.
Luxurious suites in the aristocratic area, exclusive services from beautiful boatmen, and customizable vegetarian meals are all provided.
The originally terrifying journey suddenly turned into a relaxing vacation, which was something even Lin Mo himself did not expect.
There was a large mirror in the room, which Xi Wenjun repaired using her ability. Through this mirror, she returned to her old house.
She wouldn't like to live anywhere else.
A day later, the Glutton entered a cloudless area, and looking out from the cabin, one could see a blood-red color.
Lin Mo now occupies the best room in the noble area, which is directly connected to a small open-air deck outside. When he got outside, he could see that the originally dim environment had become brighter, but the light was blood red. Looking up, he could see a huge gap in the surrounding clouds, like a wall reaching straight to the sky, thousands of feet high, or like looking out from a well.
Above my head, there is a blood-red full moon.
The blood-red moon looked like it was soaked in blood. It was eerie, enchanting, and, moreover, very beautiful.
This kind of scenery is not usually seen.
Under the blood-red moonlight, Lin Mo felt that the curse on himself began to become active. At this moment, not only Lin Mo, but also the passengers on the ship were thinking of ways to shine in the blood-red moonlight.
This kind of moonlight is a great tonic for them.
However, the area of the cloud-free zone was not large. Half an hour later, the Glutton re-entered a black cloud.
Lin Mo asked the captain about the cloudless area. According to the captain, this area should be passed through as quickly as possible because it is easy to encounter more terrifying things.
The captain did not elaborate on what the more terrifying thing was, but Lin Mo thought of a huge humanoid monster he had seen on the deck.
The other party was standing in the sea, and even with its huge body, almost half of its body was exposed. It was certain that this humanoid monster was much larger than the Glutton.
Perhaps, the more terrifying thing the captain was talking about was something like this.
The days that followed suddenly became peaceful.
Lin Mo discovered something interesting. He didn't understand the captain's nightmare before, but recently because he often chatted with him and deepened his understanding, he found that the captain's nightmare was quite interesting.
The other person is actually very lonely.
Because of the Eye of Fear, no one dared to stay with it. Most of the time, he was alone. Even if there were many passengers on the ship, who dared to sit and chat with the captain? Even if there were people who were not afraid of death, they did not have the ability to do so.
Because Lin Mo went there every day, one day Lin Mo ate the escape beans and didn't go, and forgot to tell it. As a result, the captain waited for the whole day, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he ran out to find Lin Mo.
After searching for a while, the passengers and boatmen on the boat were scared half to death.
Naturally, he was not found. It is said that someone plucked up the courage to take a look and saw the captain's dejected back.
When Lin Mo came back, he found out that the captain had been looking for him the whole day yesterday.
I walked to the captain's area and saw the captain sitting beside a chessboard in a daze. The tentacles on his face were drooping, and he looked listless.
Lin Mo walked over and sat opposite.
"Sorry, I went back home yesterday for something and forgot to tell you." Lin Mo glanced at the captain.
The other party was obviously angry and pointed at the chessboard.
This is about playing chess.
Lin Mo played a game with the other party. The captain calmed down and had a lot of fun. His little tentacles became active again, swinging back and forth.
After playing chess, Lin Mo chatted with the captain.
"How long have you been on the boat alone?" Lin Mo was just chatting, asking whatever he could find.
"It's been so long that I forgot." The captain actually spoke a foreign language, but in the nightmare world, language is not an obstacle.
The 'noble' ring that Lin Mo had seized before not only allowed Lin Mo to understand these foreign languages, but also to communicate with the other party. This was another ability of the noble ring.
"Is it boring?" Lin Mo asked.
The captain nodded.
"Then get off the boat and take a stroll." Lin Mo gave the other party some advice.
Unexpectedly, the captain immediately shook his head and said, "I can't get off the boat."
Lin Mo asked why, and the captain looked at Lin Mo with his eyes that had multiple pupils: "You will die!"
At first, Lin Mo didn’t quite understand, so the captain told Lin Mo that he didn’t want to be the captain of the Glutton.
He also told Lin Mo that this ship was actually alive.
"Didn't you notice? This ship is sailing by itself?"
Lin Mo actually discovered this.
At first he thought that there must be a special boatman responsible for operating this large ship, but he searched the ship everywhere but couldn't find him.
This means that the ship sails on the sea by itself.
Apparently this is a ghost ship.
The ship itself has its own will, and the captain is just a puppet found by this ship.
If most people knew this, they would be terrified and break out in a cold sweat. After Lin Mo knew this, he was just surprised, and he didn't feel any fear or terror at all.
Because if there was going to be a problem, it would have already happened by the time they were on the ship.
In the following communication, Lin Mo learned more secrets of this ship.
The captain had probably never told anyone about these things, so this time he opened his heart and kept talking, and no one could stop him. For example, if you take this ship, not only will you be infected with various curses, but when you get off the ship, some of your memories will be stolen by this ship.
Lin Mo cares about this.
"Mandatory?"
"Yes, mandatory."
"Is there no way to avoid it?"
"No."
Lin Mo immediately thought that the butcher and Nie Hong had also lost their memories before, but they both thought that their knives were taken away, so they lost those memories. In fact, part of their memories were "eaten" by the search of the boat.
"The knife will indeed take away some of your memories, but some of your memories will be secretly taken away by this ship, and most of the time, you won't even notice it."
Lin Mo frowned.
This is indeed quite troublesome.
"If you don't want your memory to be taken away by this ship, there is only one way." The captain kept it a secret at this time.
Lin Mo asked what the method was.
"Like me, don't get off the boat." The tentacles on the captain's face began to wave excitedly again.
It wanted Lin Mo to stay and accompany it forever.
Lin Mo shook his head.
That definitely won't work.
He couldn't live on the boat forever.
Just at this moment, Lin Mo heard a whistle.
He glanced out the window and saw that the Glutton was approaching the shore.
Walking up to the small deck and looking down, you can vaguely see the land and the dock in the distance, as well as the huge number '15' on the dock.
We have arrived at Pier 15.
The ship slowly approached, and a large group of people waiting at the dock could be seen.
There are many pig-headed monsters among them.
There are many other nightmares.
The most eye-catching thing was a wooden altar carried by a large group of short and fat men.
The wood of the altar was scarlet, as if it had been soaked in blood, and a monster was standing on it.
This monster looked like a few coiled snakes. It seemed to have sensed something at this moment. Several snake heads popped out and looked towards the deck where Lin Mo and the captain were. The next moment, the snake heads opened their mouths, and terrifying human faces could be seen in their mouths.
"This monster is quite powerful." Lin Mo praised.
"It dares to show its fangs and claws to me. I will kill it as soon as it gets on board." The captain was actually very angry about being beaten before and had no place to vent his anger. Now he saw a guy who had just got on board dared to roar at him.
I can't bear it anymore.
The captain has made up his mind. If I can’t offend Lin Mo, then why can’t I offend you?
If you get on board, I'll kill you.
