Chapter 292 Sea People
Natural storms are terrifying. The fork-shaped thunderbolts carry lightning and sweep across the sea, causing huge waves to rise dozens of meters high.
No one dares to imagine what would happen if a primitive ship that relied on fuel to sail on the sea encountered a storm of this magnitude.
The others went to change out of their wet clothes one after another, and Aimoye cooked dinner with ingredients from the sea.
Suchi wiped his white hair clean and then wandered around the kitchen.
"Junior sister, when did you get the seafood?"
The kitchen is full of all kinds of seafood, fish, shrimp, crab and conch, seaweed, seaweed and even seabirds, all of which have become the ingredients of Aimoye.
Ai Moye said while cooking, "On the way here, some seafood was blown ashore by the strong wind, and I picked it up by the way."
Use the vines to roll them up one by one and throw them all into the space for dinner.
Su Qi didn't know what to say. After a long while, he murmured, "It's hard for us to even walk. We have to use our hands and feet all the way. But you can be hugged by Lieutenant Colonel Jushan and pick up seafood leisurely. Is this what marriage means?" What are the benefits of being a marshal?”
After saying that, he put the towel on his shoulders and walked out of the kitchen, saying to himself, "I can't marry the marshal. Is there any other high-ranking officer who can seduce me, so that the next scientific examination can be easier?" "
"...Senior brother, your idea is very dangerous, I advise you to give it up."
Although the dinner was seafood, Ai Moye made it relatively simple, and no one was picky about it. After eating, he took the initiative to wash the dishes.
Afterwards, Professor Panson turned off the power on the ship.
"The voyage ahead will require a lot of fuel, so we can save a little bit. We can use flashlights or light from lightning for lighting. As for heating, which of you is a fire power user, can you contribute?"
Anne said quietly, "Professor, you are quite diligent and thrifty."
Professor Panson laughed honestly.
The ship fell into darkness, and only the lightning that tore the sky from time to time fell down, and the pale light hit the walls.
It was not too late now. Although everyone was tired, they were disturbed by the sound of thunder and rainstorm, and they really couldn't sleep.
There are no mobile phones and computers for entertainment, and some people play stand-alone games out of boredom.
Ai Moye sat by the window and vaguely heard a smart and charming female voice coming from the sea.
Nowadays, there are no sopranos singing loudly on the sea. Ai Moye just thought that she was hallucinating, and slowly said with her chin, "It's quite atmospheric."
Su Qi lowered his head to flip through the photos on the camera, and asked, "What's the atmosphere? A horror movie?"
Aimoye said slowly, "Suddenly I remembered the siren's song. It's quite similar to this situation now."
Professor Pan Sen and others also became interested and looked at her.
"What is a Kraken?"
"There are actually several versions of the siren. Usually, it refers to a mermaid-like monster on the sea that attracts passing ships with its beautiful songs and eats the sailors." Ai Moye explained exaggeratedly.
Professor Pan Sen said, "I have heard of mermaids. Archaeologists say that they are a kind of ancient human beings who have not fully evolved. They are very beautiful."
The so-called "ancient times" in the interstellar world refer to the Earth period. Ai Moye has never seen any mermaids, and it's hard to refute.
Su Qi asked, "The mermaid, no, are the sirens really beautiful? Can they really attract humans with their songs? How beautiful are their songs?"
Aimoye was about to say that this was just a myth, but suddenly a clearer singing voice came from outside the cabin.
The beautiful and ethereal singing voice resounded throughout the entire sea area. In this dark and stormy night, the singing voice was so eerie and dark that it made people's scalp numb.
Aimoye listened carefully for a while and said, "It should be this kind of singing, similar to that in myths and legends... um."
Her voice paused. The others also fell silent.
No one spoke, only the song was getting closer and closer, almost coming from the end of the distant sea, and seemed to be almost reaching the cabin.
Amidst the pounding of his heart, Professor Pan Sen calmly asked, "Which one of you is singing?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
Annie turned her palm over, blood pulsating in her palm, and whispered, "It might be the Sea People, please try not to conflict with them."
When the ethereal ghost-like singing sounded outside the cabin, goosebumps appeared on Ai Moye's arms.
She had heard similar singing, which was a precursor to the impending appearance of ghosts in horror movies.
It's like a tragically dead ghost baby humming a scary nursery rhyme, or like a female ghost in a mountain village singing, but in the blink of an eye, it's the charming and cruel siren in European and American movies, and the intertwined sounds seem to have turned into thousands of threads. Spider webs surrounded the cabin.
Da Da jumped out of the space ring and stood in front of Ai Moye.
The star sea was reinforced with fire star cores some time ago, and its abilities have also improved a lot. Sparks flew out when it opened its mouth, and it roared outside the cabin with its teeth bared.
The people in the military were on alert, but the scientific expedition team felt a sense of excitement and anticipation amid fear. Some people had even set up cameras, waiting to record the moment the "kraken" appeared.
Suddenly, the entire ship shook violently, door frames, window lattice, etc. were shaking and rattling, tables, chairs and benches were all shifted, and the chandelier on the ceiling was crumbling.
Several black shadows flashed past the window very quickly. Su Qi's eyes widened and he shot the flashlight outward, "Who?!"
Pale lightning suddenly tore down, followed by roaring thunder.
In that moment of white light flashing, everyone could clearly see the strange shadow outside the window.
I don't know if it was pulled by the light and shadow. The upper body of the shadow was burly and strong, but the lower body was as slender as a snake. The whole body was very uncoordinated.
The other party had a pair of strange blood-red eyes, staring coldly at everyone in the cabin amidst the lightning and thunder.
Annie and Jushan stood in front of Ai Moye, one on the left and the other on the right, but did not immediately conflict with each other.
They are outsiders and will be defined as invaders once the situation gets out of control.
But the other party obviously doesn't intend to give up. The charming and coquettish singing is the language of their tribe. They communicate quickly in a form that is incomprehensible to the outside world, and use it to launch attacks.
Several mermaid-like sea dwellers broke through the windows and doors, broke into the cabin at lightning speed, raised forked weapons in all directions, and thunder and lightning from the sky twined at the tips.
Accompanied by the weird singing, the seamen waved their weapons in unison, and thunder and lightning came hissing along the ground, like a terrifying and arrogant natural thunder dragon.
Ai Moye immediately unfolded the wooden shield and enveloped Professor Pan Sen and others. Su Qi also strengthened the shield, while not forgetting to shout, "Professor, take a good photo and send me a copy after you finish the photo!"
The scientific expedition team had no time to worry about their own safety and pressed the shutter frantically, trying to capture the flying shadows.
Seeing that the thunder and lightning had no effect, the sea dwellers swung their tridents again, drawing streaks of bright silver light in the dark night, and stabbed the scientific expedition team in a physical form. (End of chapter)
