Path of light

Chapter 43 43.Prison

Under the sky,

Castletown Harbor Pier,

There were still some people busy on the pier at night.

Everyone has become accustomed to the occasional shout or two from the boat.

Such things as playfulness or punishment, in short, are not among the security matters handled by the elf patrols, and there are no regulations that prohibit sailors from shouting on ships.

If it really causes a very bad impact on the dock, the most they can do is to drive them away from the port.

A large ship like this is docked at the dock, and every day the crew comes out to buy a large amount of supplies. Who wouldn't like the Castletown elves who rely on the port dock for their livelihood?

As for those noisy and noisy sounds, wouldn’t it be impossible to hear them if you turn your head away?

…

Some of the crew's heads poked out from the side of the ship.

Everyone saw two elves on the anti-fall net with some fish hooks hanging on them, and everyone laughed.

Obviously, everyone is used to this kind of scene. No one would get angry, no one would curse, and no one would beat the two of them with a long pole.

Everyone scrambled to pull Jasper and Roy out of the fishing net onto the deck. As long as the two didn't scream for help, the crew had no idea of ​​taking action.

Roy's body was wrapped with a fishing net, and there were countless small fish hooks hanging on the fishing net. Many fish hooks pierced Roy's clothes during his restless struggle, and penetrated into his skin. As long as he struggled, his skin would be pulled. Getting up... hurting.

Although he groaned in pain, he still tried his best to keep his mouth shut and did not yell.

Jasper next to him was not so lucky. As soon as he lay in the fishing net, he started shouting for help. A crew member used a five-meter-long wooden pole to punch his lower abdomen. Now his whole body is still He bowed like a shrimp and was covered in cold sweat.

There were crew members who helped them untie the fishing net. The crew members didn't care whether they were in pain or not. They held the small fish ditch and pulled out directly in the opposite direction. Their movements were extremely skillful...

Jasper cried out in pain because of this.

Fortunately, Jasper wasn't stupid enough to sit on the deck and scream for help.

Not to mention whether the guards could hear or not, it was estimated that the two of them would be directly killed by the crew.

They are a group of murderous pirates.

Roy sat on the deck with his face covered in blood. After the fishing net tied to his body was untied, the crew took away everything and then tied his hands and feet with hemp rope.

Roy felt that if he fell into the hands of these pirates, he might be doomed...

As the fear of death lingered in his mind little by little, the feeling made his whole body weak, and he felt like he couldn't stand up on his feet.

His heart also began to beat rapidly, and even his breathing became rapid. Thinking that he had not been able to enjoy life well when he came to this world, and ended up dying at the hands of these pirates, he felt regretful and regretful.

Lights came on in Castletown Harbor.

He glanced at Brown Street from a distance, but unfortunately he couldn't say a formal goodbye to Ms. Belinda.

Thinking that he was about to be sunk into the sea, the seaside aristocratic manor next to the port pier lit up with gorgeous lights, and there was the faint sound of a piano...

Roy regretted his trip to this world before he could even hold hands with the soft elf girl and go shopping together.

The second mate's burly body blocked the lights on the ship and crouched in front of the two men, a huge shadow covering them.

He turned his head and glanced at Roy, then pinched Jasper's chin with his hand and raised his head:

"I told you a long time ago that it's best not to wander around and look around. Now it's better...it's really troublesome! I thought elves would be smarter."

The second mate felt that Roy was just a lackey, and he didn't even bother to look at him when he was lying on the deck.

Their hands and feet were tightly trapped.

Roy thought he would cut his throat, tie stones to his feet, and throw them directly into the sea. Unexpectedly, the second officer said at this time:

"Lock them up in the hold, tie them up tightly, and be careful not to let them escape."

Four beefy crew members lifted their heads and feet and walked down the stairs to the bottom of the deck.

Roy counted carefully and found that there were actually three floors below the deck of this large ship...

There should be a sealed cabin at the bottom, but there was seawater almost as deep as thighs in the corridor of the second cabin. When the four crew members walked in the corridor, they almost always waded into the water.

Opening the front hatch, there was also waist-deep seawater in the bottom cabin. There was no light around, only a strong fishy smell could be smelled, and the air in the bottom cabin was very turbid.

Before Roy could take a closer look, he was roughly thrown into the seawater in the bottom cabin by two crew members.

Roy's body was covered with small wounds from fish hooks, and he fell into the sea water. He screamed in pain...

The two crew members quickly fished Roy out of the sea. One of the crew members, whose arms were almost as thick as Roy's thighs, raised his hand, but was grabbed by his companions.

The two said a few words that Roy couldn't understand...

"Don't hit him in the mouth, we have to take them out to sea. Nerev needs the two of them to purify the evil spirits on the ship."

"Then gag him!"

"Just use their socks..."

"Hahaha……"

So the two unlucky guys, Jasper and Roy, were taken off their boots by the four sailors, their socks were pulled off and balled up, and they were stuffed into their mouths again, and were placed in their mouths. There was a bandage on it to prevent them from spitting out the socks.

Even the bandage was taken off Roy's arm...

Then they hung the two people like pork on the iron hooks hanging from the main keel armor. The two people were hung in the bottom cabin like this, with their thighs still soaked in sea water.

After confirming that both of them were tied very firmly, the four crew members waded through the water in the bottom tank for a circle before leaving...

As the cabin door made a muffled sound in the middle of the sea water, the entire bottom cabin was plunged into darkness again.

…

In fact, when he was hoisted up, Roy discovered that he and Jasper were not the only ones locked in the cabin. There were sounds of slight breathing, gasping, moaning, crying...

The sound of the hatch closing was like a signal for all sounds to open.

Roy even heard the sound of splashing water. He endured the pain in his body and struggled to move, turning his body hanging on the hook half a circle.

Although there was no light in the bottom cabin, he had holy light. When he output the holy light into his palm, a ball of flame immediately illuminated the bottom cabin, which was half filled with sea water.

Jasper was hanging not far from him. The iron hook hung from a keel in the center of the hull and was hooked on the rope between their hands. This would make the rope tighter and tighter. , and it’s not easy to break free.

Both Roy's and Jasper's legs were soaked in the smelly sea water. Jasper was repaired by the crew on the deck. When the crew pulled him out of the fishing net and onto the deck, they also used a pole heavily. I stabbed him in the abdomen, and now he is in a miserable state. His right eye is swollen and there are some blood stains on his face.

Then Roy looked towards the back of the bottom cabin and discovered that there were actually many Naga mermaids hanging in the bottom cabin.

The bodies of these Naga mermaids are much longer than Roy and Jasper. This is due to their beautiful fish tails, so their hands are tied and hung on iron hooks. Their bodies below the waist are actually immersed in the water. Yes, this would at least prevent them from dying of dehydration.

There are at least hundreds of Naga mermaids tied up like this in the entire bottom cabin, and almost all of them are young mermaid ladies. They are covered with a layer of light blue scales. The scales on the shoulders, upper arms and ribs are the clearest, and the scales on the chest and abdomen are the clearest. It looks extremely white and delicate.

Naga mermaids are similar to elves. Due to their bloodline talents, Naga mermaid girls all have pure faces.

The lines of their abdomen are the most charming, matched with the streamlined fish tail below.

Roy almost shouted: 'Nami! ’

Of course, his mouth was gagged with a sock.

Contrary to the ugliness of the Naga men, the Naga mermaid girls are almost all good-looking. This is probably the main reason why slave traders risked going to the sea to capture them.

The cabin on the bottom floor was about half filled with sea water. The hands of the Naga mermaids were tied with ropes behind their backs, and the collars and chains around their necks hung from the ceiling.

The situation is much worse than Roy and others.

The hold was filled with the smell of rot and fish, and from time to time there was the sound of gentle splashing of water.

The Naga mermaids were also surprised when they saw Roy and Jasper hanging in the bottom cabin...

However, Roy later discovered that the condition of these Naga mermaids was already very bad. Some were completely unconscious, some had very weak breaths and looked dying, and some were staring at the two of them warily.

Especially when a ray of holy light lit up in Roy's hand, some Naga mermaids were so shy that they wanted to bury their heads in the sea water, and some stared at the light with awe.

Roy was a little dumbfounded and quickly dimmed the holy light in his palm.

Until now, Jasper and Roy finally knew that this large ship was indeed a slave ship.

But there are no elves on the boat, all are naga mermaids.

It’s not surprising that the Naga killer appeared on the beach at Castletown Port and specialized in assassinating human sailors...

Roy suddenly thought of something. The Naga killer had now sneaked into the ship and was in the storage room behind the kitchen on the first floor of the deck.

The socks on his feet were stuffed into his mouth, making it difficult for him to breathe.

There was no part of his body that was not painful. His hands were hung up by iron hooks. He didn't feel anything bad at first, but after being hung for a quarter of an hour, Roy finally realized that this feeling was unpleasant.

The muscles in his arms began to ache and spasm, but if he didn't exert force, the joints of his arms seemed to be broken.

Roy felt that the ligaments in his arms had been completely strained. If he was not released from the hook in time, both arms would be completely destroyed.

Roy tried to struggle, but unfortunately he couldn't break free...

At this moment, there was a clicking sound at the door of the bottom cabin, as if someone was prying the big lock of the cabin door.

Not long after, a crash was heard, and all the iron locks and chains fell into the water.

Then the cabin door was pushed open by a big hand covered with scales, and a familiar figure slipped into the bottom cabin. The moment he entered, Roy could see clearly that it was the Naga killer he met on the street in the morning. …
