   Chapter 462 Thirty-nine. Parasitic ships

  The small passenger ship that dropped its anchor and floated quietly on the sea a few nautical miles away from Crescent Bay,

   The hustle and bustle of Rodster Port is within sight, but this passenger ship full of passengers strangely broke down outside the harbour and stood still on the vast sea.

   Even stranger things are the crew and passengers walking around the deck.

  The observation sailor on the mast climbed the mast and looked out to Rodster Harbour, then climbed back to the deck, and after a short stay climbed the mast again and looked out to Rodster Harbour.

   On the deck, a group of couple passengers cuddled with each other, pointing to Belfast in the misty rain, and a few seconds after retracting their arms, they pointed to Belfast again.

   The deck-cleaning crew bent over and wiped the floor, stepped back a little and continued, then a step forward, then a step back.

  The hat of the young passenger in front of the deck fence was blown off by the wind. With a startled expression, he chased after the rolled hat, dusted off the dust, put it on again, and returned to the front of the fence. A gust of wind blew his hat off again, and the young passenger with a startled expression ran after it.

  An old couple wobbled around the upper deck with crutches, children ran around on the deck without stopping, and the crew huddled under the mast and clasped their shirts sneeze every few seconds.

  The passengers and crew on the deck stiffly performed the same movements over and over again, and the disturbing weirdness was buried under the surface of the lively.

   Anna, who couldn't understand Lu Li's behavior at first, gradually realized the deadly silence on the deck. After Lu Li stopped to read the numbers silently, she said, "There is something wrong with this boat."

  Afraid to let Lu Li get involved in the passenger ship, Anna continued: "You stay on the ship, I'll go take a look."

"be careful."

   Shaking the wooden boat with the current, Lu Li put his hand on the holster.

"Um."

   Anna's humming sound came from the void, and then Lu Li felt that the surroundings became empty.

   The counter that is beeping slowly at intervals of tens of seconds is no longer beeping.

   Lu Li looked at the repeated figures on the deck, and after a few minutes, the sanity counter jumped.

  Anna's voice sounded beside her: "This ship is strangely polluted."

   "The surface is normal. If you don't look closely, it's the same as a normal ship, but the interior walls and ceilings are covered with disgusting flesh and blood, and they are beating like living things." Anna's tone was filled with disgust at the scene she had seen before.

   "Where are those people?" Lu Li pointed to the figure on the deck.

   After a brief silence, Anna replied in a low voice: "...they were pierced through the top of their heads, the inside was empty, and some of their bodies were badly rotted."

   They are already dead, and there may even be no living people on the ship, only the husks are manipulated by the weirdness in the cabin to hide the gaze of outsiders.

   "I didn't see a living person, the host of the tentacles may be dead, we can find the last tentacle."

  Lu Li shook his head and replied to Anna: "But what if the host is the host or the blood-colored tentacles are already parasitic on the monster?"

   "We can get the syndicate to send someone to help."

   "Too long."

  Anna's voice was unwilling and worried: "But I don't want you to take risks."

   "To reach the other side of safety, it is necessary to go through turbulent waves." Lu Li replied.

  The blood-colored tentacles and the door are the swords of Damocles hanging over his head. Unless they are resolved, Lu Li will never be truly safe.

  Lu Li persuaded Anna, although she knew that the so-called "other side" was not safe, but the hopeful depiction of "the future" was indeed very tempting.

   Before boarding the dead liner, Anna told Lu Li the details of what she found: those figures, those flesh and blood.

  Ana has an innate advantage against them - physical enemies are much easier to deal with than untouchable ones.

   protected Lu Li, Anna controlled her strength to hold him up, and floated to the deck of the dead liner.

  da——

   Lu Li landed in the empty space on the deck, and the dead bodies around him remained silent, repeating the same thing eerily, until the rigid body chasing after the blown hat approached Lu Li.

  dadadada——

   The body of the dead young passenger bent down and picked up the hat that had stopped rolling. The movement suddenly stopped, and he slowly raised his head with a blood hole on the top of his head, and his eyes covered with gray mist-like turbidity fell on Lu Li.

   The stiff footsteps around him disappeared at this moment.

   Lu Li looked around, the bodies that were doing their own actions stopped moving at the same time, and looked at Lu Li coldly.

   At this moment, the distant creaking sound of the deformation of the keel suddenly echoed under the deck, and the hull shook suddenly for no reason.

   Lu Li, who was staggering, was supported by Anna who was always vigilant around him, and countless falling sounds rang out on the deck.

  嘭——

  The crew hull fell off the mast and broke his neck.

   But they quickly got up stiffly and walked towards Lu Li.

  Wash-la-la-la-

   There was a faint sound of swaying chains on the deck, and Anna, who realized something, whispered: "This ship... is so weird that it wants to leave."

  The anchor is being raised fast.

   Facing the body of the crew member who was crawling towards Lu Li with his neck swung, Anna condensed the spear in her palm and threw it gently.

   There was a sharp draught in the air, and the crew's hulls were nailed to the deck by invisible spears pierced through their backs.

   But the crew hull did not die again, he was still paddling his hands and feet, trying to get close to Lu Li.

   "Destroy the heart and brain." Lu Li looked down at the body and said.

  Two bangs rang out one after another, and the crew's heads were pinned, tightly sticking to the deck.

   But his body was still moving in place.

  The other approaching bodies were blown away by Anna. They were far weaker than imagined, making slow and stiff movements with human bodies.

   Maybe that's why the monster below deck wants to escape?

  Lu Li frowned slightly as he observed the nailed body, and suddenly noticed a trace of detail.

   "Let it get off the deck." He said, under the deck penetrated by the transparent spear, there were strange blood-colored veins surging.

"Um."

  Anna lightly, scattered the spear that penetrated the crew's body, and lifted it up.

A strange scene happened. In the gaps of the deck, blood vessels-like red veins connected the crew's bodies. As the crew members were suddenly lifted, they were torn and broken, and living creatures generally drilled back under the deck gaps, while the blood vessels were disconnected from the blood-colored veins. The body has also lost its "vitality".

   "The weirdness is manipulating them."

  Ana whispered, Hong Tong turned around and raised her palm slightly.

   The dozen or so shells surrounding Lu Li floated out of thin air, then disconnected the cobweb-like veins, and lowered their bodies to stop moving.

  At the same time, Anna tilted her head to look at the original crew body.

   An unwilling mutilated soul emerged from the body, as if it only instinctively approached Lu Li, blocked by Anna's protection, and lingered around Lu Li.

   "Wait a minute."

   When Anna took action to erase this broken soul, Lu Li called out to her.
