Chapter 1918: The Strange Ghost Ship



Chapter 1918 The Weird Ghost Ship

"Qian Yu, there's something wrong!"

Zheng Cheng walked over quickly with a serious look on his face. I hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Did we encounter an island country's fleet?"

Now, we have been sailing on the sea for more than ten days and are about to enter the island country's waters. It would be normal to encounter an island country's cruiser here.

What I didn't expect was that Zheng Cheng actually shook his head, and then nodded again.

"We did encounter it, but... the situation is a bit weird, come with me!"

As he said that, he took me to the captain's command room quickly.

After entering the captain's room, I saw the crew members operating something in front of rows of computers, and in the center of the front, there was a large screen similar to a desktop, but this desktop was angled, with the top tilted upward, which was convenient for the captain to see.

Further ahead, there was a huge piece of glass, through which you could observe the endless sea in front.

"Qian Yu, look!" Zheng Cheng pointed to the big screen and said, "This is our radar monitoring. The radar detection shows that an unidentified ship has appeared fifty nautical miles ahead. The strange thing is that this ship has been docked on the sea and motionless. We suspect that it is most likely a cruiser from the island country, but...a cruiser cannot be docked on the sea all the time. It should be patrolling in the area."

"A ship anchored motionless on the sea?"

I was slightly startled, then my pupils shrank, and I thought to myself: "Could this ship be the ship that the ancestor of the Xu family mentioned that was left on the sea by Xu Fu? But... this is unlikely!"

Our current location has not reached the destination on the route map at all. It is still nearly a week's voyage away from the Mariana Trench. The ship that the ancestor of the Xu family mentioned has been fixed at the entrance and has not moved for two thousand years.

"No, the ancestor of the Xu family has never been to the Mariana Trench, nor has he seen the ship. Maybe... two thousand years have passed, and the direction of the ship may have deviated! But... the ancestor of the Xu family also said that it was a ghost ship that would only appear in specific scenes when there was heavy fog. Now it's a sunny day, so it shouldn't appear, right? Could it be just a coincidence?"

"Qian Yu, should we go around it?" Zheng Cheng looked at me, as if waiting for my instructions.

I pondered for a moment, then asked, "According to the normal process, what would you do?"

"If it is in our waters, we will try to contact the ship. If we can't contact it... we will observe it closely. But this is close to the waters of an island country after all, and we are infiltrating secretly, so we will not make contact, but will bypass it."

After hearing what Zheng Cheng said, I nodded and said, "Then we will bypass it!"

The appearance of this ship is a bit strange, and it is still a long distance from the destination. I guess that the probability that the ship is the ghost ship mentioned by the ancestor of the Xu family is not high.

Instead of taking the risk of contact, it is better to bypass it directly.

"Okay, let's bypass it!" Zheng Cheng quickly gave orders to the people below.

Next, the ship we were on quickly turned and accelerated, trying to bypass the mysterious ship.

"It will take about five hours to bypass it," Zheng Cheng said.

"Yeah." I looked at the sea level and said, "Is the ship still there?"

"No!" Zheng Cheng nodded.

"Can we remotely detect whether there is a source of life on that ship?" I asked.

"That's fine, but if that ship is really from the island nation, we will definitely alarm them if we do this."

I hesitated for a moment, but finally gave up the idea and said, "Let's go around it at full speed!"

I thought we would be fine if we went around it, but what I never expected was that an hour later, Zheng Cheng, who was staring at the radar detection equipment, suddenly changed his face and said in surprise, "Something is wrong!"

"What's going on?" I asked hurriedly.

After seeing Zheng Cheng's expression, I immediately narrowed my eyes, because at this moment I suddenly had a bad premonition.

Something might be about to happen!

"The radar detected that an unidentified ship appeared again fifty nautical miles ahead!" Zheng Cheng looked at me in surprise and said, "And this ship... is also motionless on the sea!"

"Is it possible that it is the same ship and we did not go around it? Or did this ship move in front of us?" I said.

"Unlikely!" Zheng Cheng shook his head: "We changed direction. According to our speed, if the ship wants to move in front of us, it needs to be more than ten times faster than us, but... with the current technology of the island country, this is impossible to achieve, because the first ship we detected has a large tonnage. The speed cannot be so fast!"

"Not the same ship? What's going on? Why are two ships in a row stopped on the sea and not moving?"

Although it was my first time to go to sea, I also felt that this situation was a bit weird. After hesitating for a while, I said, "If we get close to that ship and something happens, can we sink the ship?"

It's just a ship. If I encounter an emergency, I can leave quickly. If it is really a cruiser of the island country, I can even quickly kill everyone on the ship.

But if the ship I was on was sunk, how many people on board would be able to survive?

And my plan for this trip would fail, because without the pigs and sheep, there would be no way to open the entrance to the end of the sea.

"If we take the initiative, we can sink it in two minutes!" Zheng Cheng said with certainty.

"In that case, we won't take a detour this time, let's go and take a look!"

After hearing what I said, Zheng Cheng gave the order without any hesitation.

"Notify everyone to prepare for battle and load all the shells!"

The order was passed down layer by layer, and the ship began to sail quickly towards the ship parked on the sea.

I did not continue to stay in the command room, but came to the deck at the bow, squinting my eyes and looking at the sea level.

At the same time, I open all my five senses and carefully feel the changes in the Qi field around me.

After all, this is an endless sea with too many species of creatures. At this moment, when I fully activated my five senses, the sounds of countless creatures entered my mind, including the sound of fish breaking water and the sound waves of unknown creatures. They gathered together and all penetrated into my mind. Even I felt a dull pain in my brain.

I frowned and endured the severe pain. After sailing for about ten minutes, the outline of a ship slowly emerged from the sea level.
