Chapter 262 Welcome Home
Xun Xi's behavior immediately alerted Jingguisi's headquarters.
"Is there such a thing?"
The moment he received the report, Wang Shouyi, one of the persons in charge of the institute, rushed to the headquarters. And then what appeared in front of him was a huge satellite bird's eye view. From the perspective of the bird's eye view, from Yuanhai City to the East China Sea, a "land" that should not appear is appearing.
"Reclamation from sea to land"
"It's not that exaggerated." Before Wang Shouyi finished speaking, a childish voice interrupted him. It was Tu Su who was looking at the screen with interest.
"It's pretty awesome."
"How long has it been?"
Tu Su was not surprised by the big scene caused by Xun Xi. In fact, Tu Su had already expected this day after learning that he had become the new director of the Love Without Borders Lunatic Asylum and had taken control of Nightmare City. After all, this rainbow avenue was one of Zhou Zhiyuan's symbols.
What really surprised Tu Su was the speed with which Xun Xi mastered this method.
"Less than a month." Tu Su touched his smooth chin and whispered, "Have you mastered the technique of supernatural superposition in such a short time?"
"Someone taught him?"
"No, even if someone teaches you, mastering this technique requires a considerable degree of knowledge, and the manipulation of supernatural power must reach a meticulous level. How did he do it? Ah. Yes, the fire of memory, Zhou Zhiyuan will Did you give him your experience with the fire of memory?"
This is Tu Su's guess.
But that was not the case, and the truth was actually much simpler than Tu Su guessed: Xun Xi tried it a few times, and then he learned it.
——
That's right.
In just a few attempts, he reached the so-called "meticulous" level, as if he was born with these skills.
Xun Xi also has his own guesses about this.
"Maybe it's because of being a good-for-nothing."
This kind of overlapping and supernatural means was demonstrated by Gou Huo. However, the former Gouhuo did not possess supernatural powers. How did he master this method? Xun Xi speculated that this should be the result of continuous training. The former Gouhuo used training to carve this method into his instinct.
If you don't have supernatural powers, you can borrow others'. The old dean Zhou Zhiyuan can do it.
After all, stacking supernatural powers is a method and a kind of thinking, not a real supernatural power. It can be learned through knowledge and practice.
"interesting."
While Xun Xi was spreading his thoughts, he let his consciousness follow the extension of Nightmare City, deep into the East China Sea, overlooking the vast sea level.
The nightmare city at this moment has been condensed into a street by him.
It's just that the length of this street, after he stacked all other parts of Nightmare City, spanned a distance of more than three hundred nautical miles.
Wherever he passed, he naturally attracted countless exclamations.
"Mom! Come out and see God!"
"My God, am I seasick? What is this? A mirage? A burning cloud? Please! Tell me that I am seasick!"
In the East China Sea, a huge cruise ship is floating on the endless sea level. This is a luxury cruise ship designed for wealthy people. Through this cruise ship, passengers can freely enjoy the sea scenery, go to small islands in the South, and even experience underwater adventures.
But just a few days ago, everything was ruined.
Initially, only one or two crew members were missing. In order not to disturb the passengers, some crew members decided to search secretly, suspecting that they might have lost their footing and fell into the sea.
The captain told everyone not to panic. It was better to lose face than to lose the ship. At least they were not lost yet.
Then the magnetic compass (a maritime navigation tool) failed.
The captain told everyone not to panic, because the ship is also equipped with the most advanced global satellite navigation system.
Then, the global satellite navigation system broke.
The captain told everyone not to panic, because he had already contacted the Maritime Safety Administration, and the ship from the Maritime Safety Administration would arrive soon and take everyone out of the predicament.
Then, communication was cut off.
The captain told everyone not to panic, at least the ship could still sail.
Then, the engine broke.
The captain was beaten up by the angry sailors.
Then, the news gradually became unbearable, and the well-informed guests learned of the cruise ship's situation, and the originally cheerful atmosphere was instantly wiped out. Some "smart" passengers began to search for food on the ship, and they clashed with the sailors, which quickly turned into a fight.
"Fortunately I'm here."
On the deck of the cruise ship, a young man was seen looking at the sky, and then at the calm water around the cruise ship, and couldn't help but sigh.
The young man is the commissioner of Jingguisi, codenamed Rain Master.
After receiving the notification from the headquarters, he rushed over immediately. However, when he boarded the ship, he found that the situation on the ship was more serious than he imagined.
All the crew members have been reduced to skeletons.
Half of the guests have also turned into rotting corpses.
However, the most chilling thing was that when they discovered the arrival of the Rain Master, they actually came to the deck in groups and waved to him.
Skeletons and corpses stood shoulder to shoulder, making weird hissing noises, and crawling worms crawled out of their eyes. They looked like a group of refugees crying with joy because they had discovered rescue. Thanks to this, Rain Master even suspected that he was hallucinating.
After all, this is too weird.
But in the end, when he actually stood in front of those crew members, he smelled the smell of their corpses and looked at the bones and pieces of meat they had dropped.
He still had a firm idea.
These refugees who reached out for help are no longer human beings.
They are long dead.
After that, the Rain Master dealt with the skeletons and corpses mercilessly, sweeping them away while searching for living people in the cabin.
The result is--
"Excuse me." Behind Master Yu, a man in ragged clothes with blood on his face said cautiously: "Have the reinforcements not arrived yet?"
"Soon."
Rain Master turned around and comforted softly: "My communicator has also lost contact. There is no way there will be no response from the headquarters. Don't worry, everything will be fine."
"And what happened to you."
"When reinforcements arrive, I hope you can repeat it."
"Okay, okay!"
Hearing this, the man nodded quickly and said: "I am sure! The cause of all the weirdness is that ship! It was a wooden ship even bigger than our cruise ship. I saw that wooden ship passing by our ship, and The first missing sailors happened that night."
"That's a ghost ship!"
The Rain Master fell into deep thought upon hearing this. A wooden ship that was bigger than a modern cruise ship was simply unimaginable and could only be explained by supernatural events.
"You must report it when you go back afterwards."
"I hope the eldest sister will have woken up by then."
But at this moment-——
"Then! What is that!?"
Suddenly, a few of the more than ten people rescued by the rain master suddenly raised their heads, pointed to the distant horizon, and screamed in terror.
"what happened?"
The Rain Master followed their fingers.
Immediately afterwards, a bright red wave was seen rising from the horizon, almost overlapping with the dusk sun, and finally spread rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. The thick dark clouds were torn apart by the red light, as if there was a big hand. Holding the waves, they were lifted onto the cruise ship.
"Are you the Rain Master?"
The next second, the red waves rolled on the deck. Amidst the roar of the waves, a calm voice came out and echoed on the deck.
"I am." Rain Master nodded blankly.
"Sit tight."
As soon as he finished speaking, the red light that completely covered the entire cruise ship was completely covered. Later, Rain Master and all the surviving crew members saw buildings rising from the ground on the originally empty sea level, and the noise of smoke and fire was coming from far away.
"Rescue team ready! Get ready to board the ship!"
It wasn't until the red light completely dissipated that Rain Master finally woke up as if from a dream, because he recognized this place: "Yuanhai City Port? Are we on the shore?"
"if not?"
Standing on the deck, Xun Xi looked around leisurely, and finally showed a kind smile to the Rain Master and the rescued people behind him.
"Welcome home."
"One more thing. Regarding the ghost wooden ship you just talked about, which is larger than a modern cruise ship, can you tell me in detail?"
