Chapter 1521 Word Game

Asking the captain to disembark should have the highest success rate, after all, that’s what the rules say when boarding.

As a result, the captain categorically said no in a tone that didn't sound like there was anything negotiable.

Gan Xiaoyan's first reaction was, 'Damn, I've been deceived! ’.

Erica heard this and waved her hand at the blind spot of the captain's vision. Her people immediately operated the crane and tried to lower the lifeboat.

Of course, it takes time for the starter to turn the cantilever, and Martina is also very good at it. At this time, she has to hold the captain back to prevent him from discovering the clues.

So Martina continued to ask loudly:

"Why? The passenger instructions when we boarded the ship said that we can ask you to get off the ship."

The captain's face shook violently, as if he was angry, but he might also be bound by some rules, so he had to answer:

"Only law-abiding passengers can make demands, you are not worthy!"

"We didn't break the rules!"

"But you have been to the employee area, which is only accessible to employees! You have violated the passenger instructions!"

Grass, waiting for us here?

This is indeed clearly written in the rules. The original words are: 'Some areas are restricted to crew members. If you enter by mistake, you can contact the nearby crew members to explain the situation. ’

At first glance, it doesn't matter if you accidentally enter. You can ask the crew to take you out. The first half clearly states "employees only". Once you go there as a passenger, it is a violation.

This is why the crew members will immediately turn into monsters and attack them after performing the second half of "contacting nearby crew members to explain the situation".

In other words, anyone who has been in an employee-only area does not fall into the category of 'law-abiding passengers' and the captain will not provide assistance.

Damn it, isn’t this just playing a word game!

Taking the captain's help path will definitely not work. Now we can only try to see if Erica's information is useful.

While Martina was pestering the captain with questions, Erica's people had already operated the crane, extending the cantilever out of the ship's side. When the button was pressed, a lifeboat detached from the cantilever and crashed under the ship's side.

Everyone heard a crash, like the sound of something entering the water. The lifeboat must have fallen.

but……

It seemed that they had not returned to their original world, and the surroundings were still dark.

At this time, the captain who was lying on the small window and roaring with Martina suddenly changed his expression, and then the lights on the bridge behind him began to turn into a dazzling red.

"Who threw the lifeboat down?"

He roared loudly, then turned to the bridge and shouted:

"Turn off the alarm! This is not an emergency, it's a false alarm!"

Including the captain, everyone on the ship is bound by the rules, but as a staff member, the captain needs to abide by different rules than Gan Xiaoyan and the others as passengers.

Thinking along this line of thinking, what does throwing down the lifeboat mean?

Of course, when a ship encounters an emergency and is unable to sail, or is even at risk of sinking, lifeboats are needed to evacuate people on board.

Combined with the captain's angry voice, throwing the lifeboat over means 'prepare to abandon ship', and this ghost ship will sink and disappear.

Damn it, this logic actually works well.

Although it was a reverse effect, judging from the captain's nervous performance, it really worked.

The information Erica received was not accurate. She only knew that throwing down the lifeboat would be enough, but judging from the current performance, throwing one lifeboat was not enough.

Sure enough, whether it was the man she met at the bar or the woman Erica met at the swimming pool, they all had reservations about what they said.

But now is not the time to study this, we have to go back first.

Erica quickly gestured to her people to re-hang the lifeboat on the cantilever and continue to throw it down.

Martina still wanted to say something to entangle the captain, but the captain seemed to find that the alarm could not be turned off, and his angry roar had already covered Martina's voice.

It sounded like a wounded beast roaring and struggling, which was heart-stopping.

"This is my ship! Mine! I won't let anyone leave!"

He roared loudly and jumped out of the small window.

The height of the bridge is not short. It would not be surprising for a normal person to jump off and fall to his death on the spot.

But this captain was able to stand up immediately like nothing happened even though he landed hard on the deck.

What's even more unusual is that when he stood up, he could clearly see that his body began to soften, and he seemed to be a rubber man instead of a flesh and blood body.

He made a terrible gurgling sound. The source of the sound was not from his throat, but more like the whole body making this gurgling sound like bubbles rolling and bursting in the water.

The captain in the white uniform began to expand instantly under everyone's gaze. His pale skin burst open, revealing the flesh and blood underneath, and the color of the flesh and blood became lighter and lighter as it continued to expand.

Everyone couldn't help but take a few steps back, because the captain's body was still expanding irregularly, like a piece of human-shaped bubble gum being blown up.

Eventually, it expanded into an amorphous gel with a diameter of about fifteen meters. The appearance was slightly red, but the main body was almost translucent mucus, or more like a gel monster.

Fortunately, we didn't go to the bridge to confront the captain. If this thing was blocked in the corridor, no one could escape.

Everyone took out their weapons and immediately opened fire on the gel.

It can’t be said that the bullets are completely useless. At least it will cause a layer of ripples or rolling water to appear on the surface of the gel, but other than that, there is no special effect.

“You have to stay! I won’t allow you to destroy my ship!”

It’s hard to say how this amoeba-like gelatinous mass makes a sound, but its voice is like a terrifying echo across the deep water.

The gel turned over, revealing a hole that looked like it was made by a bullet.

The reason why I say it looks like it is because the hole is too big. It feels more like a cannonball. A blood-red eye rolled and fell into the hole. Both sides of the eye seem to have vision, as if one eye can see the front, back, left and right at the same time.

This is definitely not a monster born naturally. Even the most blasphemous experiments of the mages will pale in comparison to it.

Erica’s people were still busy operating the crane, but now they could see the red eye on the gelatin mass staring at them. They were so scared that they almost smashed the second lifeboat that had been lifted onto the deck.

"Hurry up and tie him up! We need to buy time for the lifeboats!"

Someone shouted, but Gan Xiaoyan thought the voice sounded a bit like Feng Xiuqing who had never joined the group.

But there was no time to find out where the voice came from, so everyone started to act.

Whether they could leave this ghost ship or not depended on whether they could hold the captain back so that they could throw all the lifeboats down.
