Chapter 242: Beyond Understanding
On HMS Johenna Smith, the ones most concerned about Karoso’s well-being were surprisingly Saaya and Minaret.
"Little ghost, how did he disappear?" Minaret’s gaze was fixed on Saaya.
"I don’t know, who are you?" Saaya looked Minaret up and down.
This person suddenly appeared; their strength must be at least eighth-tier.
What’s going on? Why is she also here for Karoso?
It’s certain that she is definitely not here to kill Karoso.
Saaya felt jealous; Karoso had Alita by his side and this strong woman, while he had nothing around him.
Yes, Karoso is better than me, but the difference in treatment shouldn’t be this large, right?
"If you don’t know, hurry back to the cabin," Minaret kicked Saaya in the backside, making him fall flat, "Useless, you’re no good at all."
"I can’t believe you, someone at the eighth tier, doesn’t know how he disappeared! How should I know!" Saaya exclaimed weakly. Then he carefully asked, "Um, do you know Karoso? I am his Second Brother. Can you protect me too? I’m afraid I might disappear as well."
A living person just vanished like that, and Saaya felt a bit scared.
This is different from fighting for power in a civilized society; in this strange situation, staying alive is the most important thing.
Because of this, Saaya didn’t care about his pride at all.
"The other side’s methods are very clever," Minaret said seriously. "This might be a monster from this era. Now that the ship has reached the Forbidden Sea, you should take care of yourself; I don’t have time to worry about you."
"The first-class cabin is relatively safer; running around is actually more dangerous."
"Don’t worry, this monster is not after you."
"Something that can attract such a monster must have a high level of mystery. I have a guess about who it is, but I don’t know why Karoso got caught up in it…"
Seeing that the other person was also a son of Osiris, Minaret said a few more words.
Before the City of Freedom Incident, Minaret had some understanding of the events.
Sophia, an ordinary little girl, is the vessel for a spirit.
She is the one who can attract this monster and a more mysterious being.
"Thank you!" Saaya said with a grateful face.
He did not mind being knocked down by Minaret earlier; instead, he got up and respectfully bowed to Minaret before turning and running away.
Seeing that Saaya still remembered the noble etiquette at this moment, Minaret raised an eyebrow.
Is every child from the Colloa family this interesting?
Soon, Saaya returned to his room and hid.
Minaret looked at the place where Karoso disappeared, her delicate hand gently brushing the ground.
"If I can be tricked, then what on earth is happening…" Minaret’s finger tapped, and a faint wave of magic spread from here.
Soon, Minaret’s expression changed.
"Why does it show that Karoso is still here…"
Minaret looked at the empty ground; Karoso had clearly vanished!
There was no magic wave, no signs of life, and nothing could be seen with the naked eye, yet his soul remained!
Was he extinguished in an instant?
Minaret’s mind filled with the sorrowful image of Osiris, and he couldn’t help but press his hand to his chest.
Damn it, what would happen to my people if Karoso was gone?
Whoosh!
Just at that moment, a beam of golden light shot over here.
……
After talking with Merlin, Celica chose to trust him for the time being.
She had no better options.
Everything happening in front of her was beyond all the plans provided by the Church of Dawn Goddess; she could only adapt as it came.
To fight that monster, the best route was not below, but above.
She believed her subordinates would protect the civilians well, while she needed to address the root of the problem.
As she ran, she suddenly saw a figure that looked familiar, and she locked eyes with that person for a moment.
Just that glance made it so they could not look away from each other.
Whoosh!
Celica came to a sudden stop, swinging her sword at Minaret.
Clang!
A strong wave of magic energy caused the reinforced floor to leave two footprints from the two of them.
"Is it you?" Celica stared hard at Minaret. "Did you do this?"
"If I had that kind of skill, I would have sliced you up last time," Minaret said, pressing her dagger firmly against Celica’s sword.
"Why are you here?" Celica gritted her teeth.
"Of course I’m here to assassinate you, do I need to say more?" Minaret raised an eyebrow.
Celica didn’t doubt Minaret’s words.
Although she hadn’t really persecuted dark elves, and even when she did, she did not know it was about her ancestors, she was a cardinal of the Kingdom of Persia, so blaming her for it was not a problem at all.
"It seems this cannot end well."
Even with Celica’s strength, she felt a bit overwhelmed at this moment.
"I suggest we take a break," Minaret said. "Now that we’re at the Forbidden Sea, if we start fighting, neither of us will make it out alive."
Seeing how thoughtful Minaret was, Celica frowned slightly.
Not to mention anything else, she truly could not trust Minaret.
Minaret’s hands were stained with too much blood from the church people.
However, due to the situation, she had no choice but to trust. If she fought Minaret, there would be no good outcome.
"Alright!" Celica decisively stepped back. "Do you know this place?"
"Hmph, I am a dark elf. When I roamed the continent, your grandmother wasn’t even born yet." Minaret gave Celica a look. "I’ve really been to the Forbidden Sea before."
"What else do you know?" Celica said with a frown.
"Something very mysterious appeared, and there were events beyond my understanding. That little boy you were with earlier…"
"His name is Karoso Colloa."
"Colloa… from Canglang Province? Never mind who he is, that little boy suddenly vanished without a trace. I suspect we have entered the realm of the gods."
Celica’s face went pale, then flushed, as Minaret and Merlin spoke of the worst possibility.
She did not think the two were working together; dark elves and normal elves are bitter enemies.
When players participate in Minaret’s event, all normal elves cannot be used.
There is also a rule in the game that dark elves and elves cannot fight together.
Just then, a very strange thing happened.
Suddenly, Karoso’s figure appeared on the ship.
"Father, the Devil Fish is ready, shall we try it?" Karoso’s shadow looked a bit faint as he spoke to an empty seat.
He moved and spoke as if he were going six times faster.
"Karoso!" Celica reached out toward Karoso’s figure, but he disappeared.
Snap!
A cooked Devil Fish fell to the ground, giving off a delicious smell.
Celica and Minaret exchanged a glance, their hair standing on end.
