Chapter 1452
Huo Jilin looked around.
He felt an inexplicable chill enveloping the entire ship.
A cold sea breeze blew.
With a hint of evil.
He couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Hu Bayi looked at Huo Jilin with a solemn expression.
He frowned.
He asked softly.
"What happened?"
Huo Jilin took a deep breath.
He answered with concern.
"This sea area hides a huge secret."
"We defeated the sea monkey."
"But I can feel it."
"This is just the beginning of a puzzle."
Sister Ning held the weapon tightly in her hand.
Her eyes were firm.
"We don't have much time to dwell on this matter."
"The most important thing now is to find out who is behind it!"
Wang Kaixuan frowned slightly.
Then he looked at the turbulent sea around him with a helpless expression.
"But how can we find the mastermind behind this vast ocean?"
Huo Jilin pondered for a moment.
Suddenly, an idea flashed.
"We can start with controlling the mark of the sea monkey!"
"Hu Bayi noticed before that the marked sea monkey seems to be the key."
"It must have a unique status."
"You are right!"
Hu Bayi nodded.
"I will try my best to help you find the owner of the sea monkey."
Huo Jilin looked into the distance.
Determination flashed in his eyes.
"We must solve this problem thoroughly."
"We can't let the mastermind continue to wreak havoc."
"We must find him."
"No matter how much it costs!"
Everyone nodded in tacit understanding.
They understood.
The predicament before them is just a test again and again.
And the challenges in the future will be even more arduous.
Gradually.
The sea regained its former tranquility.
Night fell.
Stars filled the night sky.
Everyone returned to the interior of the ship.
In a dimly lit cabin.
They began their investigation.
Huo Jilin carefully studied the samples collected in the previous battle and the information provided by Hu Bayi.
"Look at this mark!"
Hu Bayi took out a small specimen.
"From the analysis of the sample."
"This mark seems to be some kind of symbol."
"It is not a random scratch on an ordinary animal."
Huo Jilin got closer to observe.
He quickly compared the symbol pattern in his memory in his mind.
Suddenly his eyes lit up.
"This is an ancient rune."
"Usually used for spells and summons."
Sister Ning asked with concern.
"Then are these sea monkeys controlled by doom magic?"
Huo Jilin nodded.
"Very likely."
"The mastermind must have a deep study of summoning."
"And can control these creatures changed by spells."
Wang Kaixuan frowned.
"Then how can we find the mastermind?"
Huo Jilin thought for a moment.
Decided to initiate an analysis.
"Let's first trace back the clues before the whole incident."
"Start from the very beginning of the attack."
Perhaps some clues can be found in an action they carried out before.
Everyone silently carried out their work according to the plan.
Reanalyze the previous events.
They dug out some valuable clues.
And these clues gradually pointed to a mysterious island.
"It seems that we need to go to that island to investigate."
Huo Jilin sorted out the collected information.
"It is very likely that there is the focus of the conspiracy behind the scenes."
After the battle.
Huo Jilin began to doubt Sister Ning.
He recalled her mysterious disappearance before.
Coupled with the superb marksmanship she showed now.
A trace of doubt surged in his heart.
Does all this mean that Sister Ning has other hidden purposes?
Huo Jilin sighed in his heart.
People's hearts are unpredictable.
After a long period of investigation and observation.
Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan also began to notice the abnormality of Sister Ning.
Hu Bayi discussed with Huo Jilin privately.
"I also think Sister Ning is a little strange."
"She has never shown such excellent marksmanship before."
"We must be careful of her hidden motives."
Huo Jilin nodded.
Also be vigilant about Sister Ning.
"We must remain vigilant."
"And continue to monitor her."
They decided to continue to observe and secretly investigate the possible targets behind Sister Ning.
One night.
Under the soft light.
When Huo Jilin sneaked into the cave to investigate.
Suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind.
He quickly hid behind the rock wall to avoid it.
Sister Ning walked into the cave.
Staring at the dark passage ahead.
With a solemn expression.Huo Jilin's heart moved.
He stared at Sister Ning's back.
He decided to follow her.
To see what she was doing secretly.
The two of them walked silently through the cave.
They moved along the deep dark passage.
They passed through one gloomy passage after another.
They felt a stronger chill.
When they came to a spacious cave.
Huo Jilin finally couldn't help but ask.
"Sister Ning."
"What are you doing here?"
"Why did you suddenly show such superb marksmanship?"
Sister Ning stopped.
Turned around.
Her eyes were firm.
"Huo Jilin."
"I have always had my mission."
She answered calmly.
"Mission?"
Huo Jilin asked.
"What mission can make you betray us?"
Sister Ning smiled slightly.
"Betrayal is because you don't know the truth."
Under that warm and soft light.
Huo Jilin sat quietly in the cabin.
He was uneasy.
He recalled his conversation with Sister Ning.
And the doubts he had about Sister Ning.
Her extraordinary marksmanship and mysterious disappearance made Huo Jilin guess that she had some hidden purpose.
He looked at the gun in his hand.
He couldn't help but think about this dangerous and complicated situation.
Betrayal is so easy to happen.
He knew this.
He began to reflect on the relationship between himself and Sister Ning and the trust issue.
In order to protect himself and his companions.
Huo Jilin decided to keep vigilance as the bottom line of their cooperation.
"I always feel that Sister Ning has not really opened her heart."
Huo Jilin whispered to Hu Bayi.
"We must be vigilant."
"Don't take it lightly."
Hu Bayi nodded.
His face was solemn.
"We can't deny that what she showed is real ability."
"But we must be careful about her hidden motives."
Both decided to continue observing Sister Ning.
And tried every means to investigate the target hidden behind her.
The fishing boat stopped at the dock.
Huo Jilin and Hu Bayi jumped off the boat.
Prepared to start a new day of investigation.
They looked around.
Looking for Sister Ning.
Looking at the crowded and noisy dock.
Both knew that it would not be easy to find Sister Ning.
They shuttled through the crowded crowd.
Looking for any clues related to Sister Ning.
Finally.
In a corner.
Huo Jilin found a familiar figure.
Sister Ning lowered her head to avoid their gaze.
Appeared more mysterious and distant.
"Sister Ning!"
Huo Jilin called loudly.
Hearing the voice.
Sister Ning raised her head.
Her eyes were indifferent.
"Is there anything wrong?"
She asked indifferently.
Huo Jilin took a step closer.
"Wang Kaixuan is in a coma."
"Do you know what happened?"
