Mystic Holy See

After sitting down, Herbert frowned and asked, "My sister, Carula entrusted you?"

Aldrich put down the glass, nodded to another man with inch hair and a deep scar on his face, and then replied: "Yes, my name is Aldrich, she can't leave in the orphanage, and she is worried about your Safety, I was supposed to ask Mr. Jack Johnson about the situation."

"I'm Jack Johnson." The scarred man burped loudly and scratched his head.

"It made her worry," Herbert said with a bit of tenderness on his vicissitudes of life, then glanced at Aldridge's white shirt unintentionally, and asked, "Carula wrote to me about you, I heard that you are also a Beyonder... take the liberty to ask, who are you and Carula?"

"Pfft!" Jack was pouring wine into his mouth. Hearing this, he laughed out loud, and the wine sprayed all over the table.

"Scarface!" Even though Herbert's face was black, he could still see that he was red.

Aldridge coughed in embarrassment and almost forgot that they were orthopedic brothers and sisters, and quickly explained: "Ordinary friend, I only know her because of Eve."

At the same time, he also understood in his heart that Herbert is a Beyonder, and this Mr. Jack is no exception.

"This way..." Herbert pretended to be calm and changed the subject: "It's been a long time since I saw that child Eve."

Jack guessed that he drank a bit high. In front of Aldridge, an outsider, he said yin and yang, "You're not thinking of a child, are you?"

"Scarface! Shut up!" Herbert said through gritted teeth, but the corner of his eye was always with Aldrich.

"Don't talk too much, just talk about something serious." Herbert patted the table and said, "Mr. Aldridge, I might trouble you to go back and tell Carula that I'm fine, but I might not go back for the time being."

"Okay." This is a small matter, Aldridge agreed.

"You didn't say it just now, what happened? It's just a trip to Tuku Island to deliver the goods. Why did it take so long?" Jack took a sip of wine and asked vaguely.

Herbert didn't avoid Aldridge either. After a few seconds of silence, he said in a low voice, "We encountered a ghost ship."

Aldridge stopped lifting the glass, and Jack put down the glass in his hand.

"Ghost ship?" They asked in unison.

Jack wiped his face to wake himself up a bit and said, "Am I drunk or did you drink too much sea water?"

"You're drunk, but you heard it right!" Herbert felt that he made friends accidentally.

Aldridge is interested, this is a supernatural event that often occurs at sea - of course, nine out of ten are fake, but now there is one person who has seen it with his own eyes.

He asked, "What about the specifics?"

Herbert took a sip of wine, his face a little heavy, and began to narrate: "It was February 2nd, and we stayed at Tuku Island for a few days before returning. This sea route... Jack, you know, has always been There were no major problems."

Jack nodded in approval.

Herbert continued: "But that day, the sea was foggy."

"This season?"

Aldrich frowned. Although there are many reasons for the formation of sea fog, it is still affected by temperature. For example, the advective fog, which has the greatest influence, is mainly caused by the influence of cold ocean currents. It occurs mostly in spring and summer.

The waters near Spurzi are all warm ocean currents, and there is no influence of icebergs or anything, and there is almost no sea fog.

"Well, the fog is very thick and thick, and the visibility is less than 30 meters. Of course, we have not lost our way." Herbert continued, "Our lookout hand told us that there was the sound of a ship approaching from the rear. At this time, Mr. Captain felt Not very good, order us to prepare for battle."

"I admit that our ship was not fast, but after unloading on Tuku Island, we didn't have a large load, the draft was shallow, and the speed was mid-range, but that ship was so fast, faster than any ship I've ever seen. be quick."

Herbert tugged at the collar, it seemed a little hot, and continued under the gazes of the other two: "We soon saw the ship, the great Lord of the Sea, that scene seems to be in front of me now, Its hull is black, no, it's all black! Black keel, black mainmast, black sails!"

"But it's in tatters, with broken holes all over the hull, and even scratches all over the sails! I really don't understand how such a boat can get such a speed under the power of the downwind?"

"There is a feeling of fear on the boat. As the chief mate, I try to keep calm, but in every hole, I feel that eyes are watching me!"

Jack took another sip of wine, but said nothing, looking earnestly waiting for the follow-up.

"The ship came straight at us!" Herbert's hand clenched the glass. "We thought it was crazy, but what happened next drove us crazy! Its hull came off ours. Go through!"

"Go through?" Jack said dumbfoundedly~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I don't know how to describe it, it's like, like..." Herbert was at a loss for words.

"Like a phantom?" Aldridge reminded, he already had a picture in his mind.

"That's right! It's like a huge phantom, passing through our ship." Herbert became fluid again. "What's even more frightening is that the hull it passes through quickly decays, and every piece of wood is like a The child is over a thousand years old, blackened and broken, and the sailors are all hiding, but the boat is so big, where can you hide?"

"I stood on the bow, and I could see my sailors being engulfed by it, the flesh and blood gradually disappearing in its shadow, and the white bones exposed, turning grey-black again."

Herbert covered his hair with his hands, his eyes were red and his fingers were trembling, he murmured: "I ran away, everyone jumped off the boat, I could save them, but I was afraid, I was afraid of death! "

"It's shameful! I know!"

"But I have to live! I still have a sister and a group of children waiting for me to earn money to support me. I must not die!"

As Herbert spoke, his eyes became more and more red, but he held back his tears, and the emotion in his voice made Aldridge feel the same.

"Herbert, you're not wrong, there's nothing you can do at that time." Aldridge simply advised.

Jack didn't speak, just patted Herbert's arm.

After a while, Herbert calmed down a bit and gritted his teeth: "I know that it is the power created by extraordinary talents, which is much higher than my current level, so I can only use extraordinary powers to escape from the sea, but I lost my way, It took too long to finally come back."
