Chapter 189 Dating is not allowed here
Perhaps it was because Coron's smile was too bright, and because he always helped the players resolve crises whenever he appeared, that everyone felt inexplicably more relaxed.
Then someone took the opportunity to bring up the amulet that Gold Tooth had brought up.
It was then that Corren noticed the pendant in Gold Tooth's hand.
He snatched it from Gold Tooth and threw it to Gawain, saying, "These things are sold at the port of Cedar Harbour."
"This is a souvenir."
He looked at the other players, "What did he extort from you?"
"Two gold coins!" a player whispered.
Colin was clearly enraged by Gold Tooth... He punched Gold Tooth directly in the face, while Gold Tooth's accomplice stood frozen in place, not daring to approach.
Gold Tooth covered his face. "...They're just some newbies."
"Cedar Harbor is never short of crew members who want to board whaling ships."
Corren clearly disagreed with Gold Tooth's idea: "As long as we're on the same ship, we're comrades."
He pulled out more pendants directly from Gold Tooth's pocket—it seemed the other party was prepared and wanted to extort these new crew members—Koren gave all the pendants to the players, then took out a silver coin from his pocket and handed it to Gold Tooth.
"That should be enough."
Although Gold Tooth was unhappy, he still accepted the silver coin.
He covered his face and returned to his group. Corren turned around and saw that the players were already holding pendants, then said to them, "These pendants are not necessities."
"If you have a firm faith, you don't need any tokens to protect you from evil spirits in your dreams."
The players were unimpressed; they were just playing as novice crew members and had no intention of worshipping another god in the dungeon.
Perhaps sensing the players' thoughts, Coron didn't waste any more words and instead brought up another matter.
"Once another faith appears on the ship, it will steal the power of the sun god," Coron said seriously to the player. "So you must find the heretics on the ship as soon as possible."
"Otherwise, we will all be trapped in the nightmares created by evil spirits."
Yan Xun noticed that Ke Lun's statement this time had changed compared to that at dinner.
Last night, Corren said, "If someone spreads rumors...", but today he said, "We must find them as soon as possible...".
"Heretics have already infiltrated the Terror?" Yan Xun asked.
Koren was surprised that it was Yan Xun who asked the question, and he nodded in surprise, "Yes."
“In my dream yesterday, I discovered a flaw in the radiance of the Sun God,” Corren said worriedly. “It must be that heretics have infiltrated the ship, which has made the Sun God’s protection no longer pure.”
Yan Xun only remembered the golden sun in his dream yesterday and did not notice the "flaw in the brilliance"—but he felt that Ke Lun's statement might be a bit of an artistic embellishment.
But Corren's words did indeed provide a clue.
Players must find the heretics on the Terror Ship as soon as possible, otherwise they will all be in danger of being possessed by evil spirits.
The other players probably realized this as well, and immediately decided to search the ship.
The brief exchange ended there. Coron left the cabin first, Yan Xun was the slowest and lagged behind, and then he noticed that Gawain also slowly moved to the back.
"Hey." Gao Wen suddenly turned around and called out to him.
Yan Xun wanted to say "I'm not calling you 'Hey'", but then thought the line sounded too much like a female lead in an idol drama, so she chose to keep quiet in the end.
What's your name?
"Xiao Yan."
“No.” Gawain tugged at his hair. “I’ll say your full name.”
"Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan," he muttered a few times, "It sounds like he's calling for some kind of smart assistant."
Yan Xun: "..."
"Yan Xun," he said after a moment's thought.
When Gao Wen and Qin Ke sat down, they were already sitting close together. Qin Ke walked slowly, so he naturally heard their conversation.
After hearing this, he slowly turned around.
"What are you looking at?" Yan Xun asked.
Qin Ke shook his head.
"nothing."
He smiled shyly, "I just think your name sounds nice."
Yan Xun: "..."
Gawain: "..."
The words "Holy crap, this is a god!" instantly popped into Gao Wen's head.
Even at this moment, he doesn't forget to strike up a conversation?
He stood directly between Yan Xun and Qin Ke, saying, "Stop."
"This is not the place for dating."
Qin Ke immediately explained, "I didn't want to be in a relationship. I just thought the name Yan Xun sounded nice. Don't misunderstand me." He looked at Yan Xun, "I'm not the kind of person who has any improper thoughts about you. When I'm silent, I really don't have any nonsense on my mind."
"I'm usually a quiet and shy person. People say I'm disgusting, but I swear I don't have any bad intentions. I only complimented your name because I genuinely thought it sounded nice."
"By the way, when I was sitting there looking at you, I was just wondering if you didn't sleep well last night, because you had really dark circles under your eyes..."
“…Damn.” Gao Wen wiped his face. “Brother, you’re the best.” He gave a thumbs up.
Gao Wen suddenly felt a little sorry for Yan Xun.
He had previously thought Yan Xun was a bit self-important, but Qin Ke hadn't said anything, yet he was already acting all high and mighty.
Looking at it now... this is what you call being very experienced?
Gao Wen glanced at Qin Ke cautiously again, afraid that the man would start babbling on and on again.
This guy looks decent enough, and upon closer inspection, he even resembles a celebrity I'd seen on TV before. So why does he talk in such a distorted way?
"Don't tell me." Yan Xun covered Qin Ke's ears as soon as he opened his mouth. "I don't want to hear it."
He has now realized that instead of trying to talk to these people nicely, it's better to ignore them in the first place.
Qin Ke rattled off a string of words like beans, and only shut up when he saw that Yan Xun had really covered his ears—he hadn't heard a word of what Gao Wen had said.
Gao Wen extracted a piece of information from Qin Ke's words.
He turned to look at Yan Xun and said, "Dude, your dark circles are really quite heavy."
"Didn't you sleep last night?"
He actually suspected that many people hadn't told the truth.
“I’ve always had dark circles under my eyes,” Yan Xun said, sensing Gao Wen’s implication. “I’m telling the truth.”
"Ice walls and red whales in my dreams."
"What did you see inside the ice wall?" he asked Gawain.
"I didn't see it clearly," Gao Wen blurted out instinctively. After a half-second, perhaps realizing that his words sounded like an excuse, he added, "I'm not lying to you."
"The ice wall in my dream was very thick; I could only sense something inside it..."
As he said this, his body shuddered, but Gao Wen himself didn't realize it; it seemed to be an instinctive reaction as his body recalled the fear in his dream.
"I just feel that thing..."
Gao Wen thought for a moment and then said.
"It's too big."
"This terrifying ship probably can't even fill the pores on that thing's body."
“I even have a feeling that its body is all beneath that endless ice wall.”
