The sun is high

Looking at the piece of "skin" that was constantly fluttering on the ground and the strange blood spilled on the deck, Xiuge naturally thought of the "color of life" that originated from a long time ago.

Then a Touch of Charron quickly reached out, and it used its end to lightly scratch the blood, and brought some of the blood to Shuge.

Among the constantly beating colors, a familiar feeling came faintly. Shuge was convinced that this parasite, which was mutated from a piece of skin on Badosa's back, was indeed closely related to the "Color of Life" .

Although the vitality contained in this blood is quite thin, Xiuge can still clearly capture the special traces from ancient times. When he uses his magic perception to capture the signs, there will even be a faint feeling in his heart. Impulse is a creature's instinctive pursuit of life power.

Poor dwarf Badosa finally managed to get up from the deck.

The healing magic page that Xiuge threw out before has fully exerted its effect under the influence of magic power. The emerald green healing light that escapes tightly wraps Badosa's body, and the extremely hideous wound on his back also disappears. He healed quickly under the influence of magic, and except for some residual pain, Badosa is now back to normal.

He carefully hid behind the table and chairs, watching in horror the strange existence that was constantly flapping and jumping on the deck, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Then... what on earth is that thing?"

"As you can see, Master Badosa, it is a patch of skin on your back...at least it once was."

Hearing Shuge's calm answer, the dwarf instinctively wanted to touch his back with his hand, but the constant stinging sensation made him give up such an idea. He looked at the helpless piece of land with fear. Common sense describes it as "skin." His lips were trembling, but he couldn't say a word.

Shuge glanced at Badosa and saw that he seemed to have lost his hostility towards him, so he began to deal with the special parasite and the blood traces in front of him. The power of "Color of Life" is very special. It may not be as good as The descendants of the Dark Abyss who were created in ancient times are so dangerous, but if not handled properly, it may trigger some chain reactions.

Therefore, while Shuge completely blocked the parasite, he also used his own magic power to collect or erase all the abnormal blood scattered on the ground. Under the influence of the dark abyss magic power, the "Color of Life" brought The abundant vitality and remaining marks were completely eliminated.

As for the parasite with extremely strong vitality, it is now completely locked in a cage made of magic. No one can see the things inside through the surging magic light. Only cultivators can Ge knew that the parasite still maintained strong energy until now, but compared to Xiuge, its power was too weak and could not break through the blockade.

Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Xiuge put away his terrifying-looking magic. He turned around and came to Badosa's side, quickly checked his status, and confirmed that Badosa's After there were no more abnormal marks on his body, he raised his hand to help the other person sit on the chair.

Under Badosa's uneasy gaze, Shuge gently snapped his fingers, and a basic stream-level repair magic was applied to Badosa's damaged clothes.

Badosa's clothes are just a few very ordinary dwarf clothes, without any magical protection rituals attached to them, so a simple repair magic is enough to close the crack, but like all repair magic, this level of recovery It can only last for a period of time. After the magic power disappears, the clothes will still return to their damaged appearance.

The dwarf raised his head, licked his dry lips, and reached out to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. After taking a fearful look at the magic cage floating next to Xiuge, he spoke in a hoarse voice. Said: "Thank you... thank you, is that thing completely dead?"

Xiuge shook his head: "No, it is still alive and kicking now, but I can guarantee that it will not lie on your body again... This kind of magical creation is very strange. Relying on the existing magic system, I am afraid there is no way to create it. Come up with something like this.”

Badosa's mind was still sober. After listening to Shuge's words and thinking of Shuge's past experiences in confronting the Black Sun Society, he immediately reacted: "You mean, this thing is the Black Sun?" Association..."

"I can't guarantee it, I can only say it's very possible."

Xiuge turned his head and glanced at the magic barrier covering the side, and sighed: "I'm afraid it's a mess outside. Fortunately, everything is going smoothly. At least Master Badosa, you haven't fainted now, otherwise I would really It’s hard to explain.”

"Hmph... Mr. Shuge, for us, repaying others' help is as natural as drinking. I will help you clarify."

Seeing that Badosa was very cooperative, Shuge decided to strike while the iron was hot. He nodded and said: "I'm afraid it's not safe on the Windless One. If you are willing to trust me and the Dawn Society, please come to our cabin as soon as possible... I'm worried that you are not the only one who has been parasitized by these things. If you want to find out the reasons behind it, we need to sit down and talk in detail."

Hearing this, Badosa immediately remembered the itching and tingling sensation on his back. His face twitched, and then he nodded hurriedly.

…

The commotion on the deck of the Windless was calmed down with astonishing efficiency.

When the magic barrier that blocked the line of sight was removed, everyone discovered that there seemed to be nothing unusual about the conflict between Shuge and the dwarf Badosa. There was neither any blood nor signs of struggle beside the table and chairs. Badosa was sitting calmly. On the chair, the clothes on his body seemed to be intact, but his face was a little pale and his lips were a little white.

Wei Lin and several other spell casters noticed the magic glow floating next to Xiuge, so the expressions of the mages changed slightly. Mages above the stream level all know that this is a very standard " "Magic Cage" is specially used to control and imprison some smaller magical creatures, or to temporarily isolate dangerous alchemical items.

This is enough to show that some unknown and secret events did happen just now.

However, at this time, Badosa took the initiative to speak. He told everyone that he was accidentally attacked by a wild mage a few days ago, and a fine needle treated with a special process was inserted into the muscles of his back. Fortunately, Dawn Society Sugar Ernst successfully removed it for him, and now he is no longer in serious trouble.

Any normal person can see that Badosa is hiding something, but now that the person involved has spoken, they naturally cannot continue to pursue it. However, this time the commotion has added several mysterious things to Shuge himself and the Dawn Society. The colors also gave the passengers on the boat something new to talk about.

Although the dwarves are known for their rude and petty behavior, they also show enough respect and caution when facing trouble and danger. Badosa, who had just suffered trauma, did not even return to his cabin to change clothes. , he took the members of the dwarf mission directly to the cabin of the Dawn Society with Shuge and others.

Not only did the dwarves come here, but there was also a River Valley-level mage from the Legal Committee. He was one of the leaders of the Legal Committee on the Windless Cruiser.

After a short discussion, Shuge and Weilin agreed that this matter required the witness and participation of the Legal Committee.

The sudden appearance of parasites on the body of the dwarf Badosa shows that in the past period of time, the enemies they were wary of were not idle. They were secretly using some method that could hide the magic rats and the magical secrets on the ship. Promote your own plans.

You don't need to think about it. There is a high probability that what happened today will be noticed by them. This will most likely allow them to adopt some new strategies or accelerate their original action plan. Accordingly, Xiuge and others need to make matching decisions. Reaction.

Disclosing the relevant findings to the Legal Committee and asking the entire Windless Fleet to be more vigilant is the safest method.

After all, relying on the current capabilities and influence of Xiuge and others, I am afraid that it is not enough to conduct sufficient penetration and inspection of other ships besides the Windless One, especially warships. If they want to conduct a thorough investigation, they must do it here Cooperate with the Legal Committee on the matter.

When nearly twenty people were suddenly crammed into the cabin that could only accommodate ten people, the venue became crowded. In front of the head of the Legal Committee, Shuge and Weilin asked the remaining members of the dwarf mission An investigation was conducted, and the results were surprising.

In addition to Badosa, there were four other dwarves with similar physical conditions.

The exact same parasites appeared on part of their bodies, and after several mages cooperated to remove these monsters, everyone's complexion became a little pale.

It's true that people have seen dangerous magical creatures, but they have never heard of a living person's skin coming directly to life and becoming a strange creation parasitic on the human body.

A total of five "skin bugs" were put into empty water tanks that were attached with reinforcement magic. Looking at those weird tentacles and the slender fangs used to fix their bodies and paralyze the victim's perception, everyone was stunned. I feel itchy all over my body, and I wish I could take off my clothes and take a closer look now.

"Mel, I swear, I could never imagine such a monster in my wildest dreams."

The River Valley-level mage of the Legal Committee looked at a strange insect that kept hitting the wall of the water tank. His facial muscles kept twisting. It was obvious that he was not very able to accept such a life form on a physiological level.

"It really shouldn't exist, at least it shouldn't exist in today's Van En... If I guess correctly, this is probably a deformed embryo catalyzed by the Black Sun Society using some special power or drugs."

In this matter, Shuge had enough power to speak over everyone present, so when he opened his mouth, everyone in the cabin consciously kept their mouths shut.

"I can tell you clearly that on the day I boarded the Windless One, I had already noticed traces of the activities of the Black Sun Society near the Blue Algae Port... Therefore, after boarding the ship, the Dawn Society has been trying every means to find them. trace."

Shuge said slowly: "However, it was not until this morning that we made some new breakthroughs. It is obvious that the Black Sun Society is extremely well prepared in this regard. I highly doubt that they took advantage of some loopholes on the Windless One, or It deceived individual passengers and crew members and moved certain hidden dangers onto the ship."

This time, there is no need to ask too many questions.

As the number one victim, Badosa immediately took the initiative to stand up. He took out a pen and paper, and as quickly as possible asked the members of the dwarf envoy to list the places they had visited and the people they had contacted in the past ten days.

Looking at the densely packed names, Xiuge had a headache. He asked: "Master Badosa, why are so many people... coming to you? Is this your foreign strategy?"

"What foreign strategy!"

Hearing Shuge's question, Badosa bared his teeth and cursed: "Dwarves have never been as 'popular' as they are today in the past few hundred years, but anyone who can speak will come up to us and ask us if we want to rent Craftsmen, are they renting weapons technicians, are they able to manufacture new weapons on a large scale... They are really a bunch of bastards raised by giant ears. Everyone talks nicely, but their voices are quiet when it comes to money. We have wasted money on this. How much time!"

When Badosa cursed these words, Shuge noticed that the face of the head of the Legal Committee standing aside changed significantly.

Obviously, the representatives of Merlin Lehe are also within the insult category of "raised in the land of giant ears".

Xiuge picked up the list. He quickly scanned the messy place names and people's names, and then his eyes settled on a strange person's name.

He turned his head and asked the dwarves: "Which one of you has this Luger scholar met?"

A female dwarf with a pale face stood up. One of the "skin bugs" was plucked from her body. In order to ensure the safety of the female dwarf as much as possible, Weilin was almost bitten by the strange bug. .

So, Xiuge asked with some confusion: "This Legere scholar also came to you to buy weapons?"

"Weapons? Shit weapons."

Badosa shook his head: "That guy first came to me, saying that he wanted to ask our craftsmen to customize a... ship that can be driven under the sea, so that he can more easily conduct his own research and capture There were more magical creatures from the sea, and I thought he was a fool, so I asked Ye Na to receive them.”

The female dwarf named Yena nodded hurriedly: "That's true. Scholar Legel said that he is willing to pay enough money for this matter. He hopes that we can establish a workshop in the Principality of Bult to develop this kind of... ...a boat that can dive.”

Xiuge's eyes became subtle: "You agreed?"

"of course not!"

Ye Na shook her head: "This kind of thing sounds unreasonable at first glance. If you want to dive, can't you just let the mages attach a few magic rituals, tie a rope and throw it into the water? Why bother?"

"I rejected the matter at that time. Scholar Legere was scolded by us a few times, but he was not angry at all. He even gave us two bottles of new spirits produced by the Principality of Bult... I felt that others It’s so weird!”
