"What should I do, what should I do..." Saya was at a loss at this time: "So many damn guys have sneaked into the great Ate, and we still have more than a day to sail. How can we hold on..."
"Can't we gather everyone together?" Su Ming'an said, "In the next period of time, no one should be separated, so as not to give the Soul Clan a chance to attack alone."
Saya immediately shook her head: "The only ones who can deal with the Soul Clan are the hunters, but the hunters' methods are all mass destruction... If we gather people together, there will be more casualties..."
She said with a hesitant look: "Besides, there are only three hunters on the Arte, two of whom are responsible for protecting the nobles, and the remaining one is responsible for searching for clues. He simply has no time to take care of so many people. There are more than 2,000 people on the Arte... It's simply unrealistic to gather them all together..."
Su Mingan understood.
It’s not that I can’t, but that I don’t want to.
The great nobles valued their lives very much, and held on to the scarce hunters like they were holding on to a lifeline. They would rather all their people die than let this absolute protective barrier leave them.
Once the hunters were released and their attention was focused on some civilians, they might lose their lives due to this momentary negligence. A shrewd noble would not make such a dangerous decision.
Even Saya herself was scared now. Her butler grandfather was indeed a soul hunter, but at this time he was temporarily transferred to protect the Duke, and she became someone who could die at any time.
Su Mingan saw her fear.
"Don't panic." He whispered, "As long as you stay with me during the day, nothing will happen."
He just can't find the soul clan now.
Once he finds it, there is no possibility of him losing. He doesn't believe that there is anyone who can kill him instantly at this stage.
"Take me to the scene first," he said.
Saya nodded and led him forward.
The incident took place in a four-person room, which was the room for the lowest-level civilians.
At this time, the room was surrounded by people, and panic was spreading unbridled among the crowd.
"what to do……"
"Another dead person has appeared..."
"One Soul Clan member going on a killing spree is enough to wipe out half of the people on this ship! If there are more than one Soul Clan member, I'm afraid..."
"Where are the hunters? Where are the hunters, why haven't they caught those damn guys yet!"
The nobleman, with a sad face, covered his face with a fan. The fat and big-eared rich businessman shouted loudly and was very dissatisfied with the current situation.
Su Ming'an pulled Saya and pushed away the panic-stricken people, and pushed open the half-open door.
A strong smell of blood hit them in the face, and the rich businessman who was still cursing and shouting retreated with a pale face.
Su Mingan looked at the four bodies lying flat on the ground.
The corpse was pale and covered in blood, with a hideous wound on the neck, showing the appearance of someone who had been attacked by the Soul Clan.
He suddenly recognized them - they were the four players who had committed suicide last night!
He was not surprised that this group of people died, but it turned out that there was something wrong with the ventilation duct. They died after entering that ventilation duct.
He suddenly thought of Miss Naraku whom he met last night. It seemed that Naraku was very suspicious. Could it be that after he left, Naraku returned there, entered the ventilation duct, and absorbed the souls of the four players... ?
"Saya, where is Naraku?" Su Mingan spoke immediately.
Saya's expression suddenly changed.
"Why are you mentioning Miss Naraku..."
"Where is she now?" Su Mingan stared at her, his tone somewhat anxious: "I suspect she is related to this attack, and we must find out her whereabouts as soon as possible."
“…”
Saya looks at him.
She looked at him with an extremely complicated look, as if she was weighing her words.
Then, she gently placed her hand on his shoulder, as if to comfort him.
"Ms. Naraku..." Saya said softly.
Su Mingan had a premonition of something.
Her voice was soft and slow, as if she didn't want to shock him too much.
He looked at Saya in front of him, and a sense of absurdity gradually emerged in his heart.
"...Ms. Naraku." Saya said: "It was the one who was attacked last night.
The fifth person to die."
She slowly moved away.
Behind her, on the corridor, a body covered with a white sheet was being transported.
Through the blood-stained white cloth, he saw a piece of rose-colored hair hanging from the end of the white cloth, the color was as bright as fire.
