The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 266 - 195 Captain Jack Su!
Su Qi walked onto the deck.
This ship was huge but also in a terrible state of disrepair, its tattered flags blending spottily with the dark hull.
And the sea around them... seemed as dark as the sky, the surging waves continually slamming against the ship's body.
"According to the ship's navigation log, this sea harbors all sorts of terrifying sea monsters, ghost ships, and demonic maritime disasters... In short, any bizarre event could happen."
Su Qi said softly, "And the compass on the ship will point us in a safe direction."
"So, the task is simple, just steer the ship in the direction indicated."
"Simple my ass, can you not sound so relaxed!"
The Yellow Robed Priest grumbled, "This broken ship needs fifty people to get moving!"
"And this is the seventh layer; it's clear that more terrible dangers are coming. If the ship can't sail, we might end up trapped here, buried at sea."
It and Su Qi were in the same boat, so it couldn't help worrying!
And it was puzzled, under normal circumstances, it should appear here with other trial participants to start the first step.
Not stuck in a dead-end situation like now.
Could it be because they cleared the last instance too quickly? Or was there a mistake in the process?
"Indeed, it's a bit troublesome, but it's not a big problem."
Su Qi paused, "Gan Wencui."
The next moment,
Black shadows slowly emerged in front of him.
The Yellow Robed Priest was slightly stunned, seeing these three black shadows for the first time... This guy also had such methods, but it didn't feel any familiar aura from them.
Because at this moment, all three figures were filled with intense darkness.
"Sect Hierarch... please instruct..."
Gan Wencui opened his mouth hoarsely, seemingly still unaccustomed to speaking, his voice faltering and awkward.
"How is the training going."
"About... 70 black shadows have reached... the level of simply following orders."
"Okay, bring them all out, here are the navigation requirements... you guys teach them." Su Qi wrote down all various distribution and operational requirements of the still-navigable ship on a piece of paper.
"Understood."
The next moment.
The Yellow Robed Priest dumbfoundedly watched as a great number of black shadows, like plankton, slowly appeared on the ship from Su Qi's shadow. Although they had human-like forms of black shadows, each one looked somewhat dazed.
"What in the world is this..."
"My special ability, that's all." Su Qi's face was pale: "It consumes a bit much."
The Yellow Robed Priest didn't doubt him, having seen Su Qi's dark shadows before. Besides, special abilities were inherently strange and varied.
"But it seems... these shadows are all very weak, just like ordinary people."
"For now, this will suffice."
Su Qi handed the matters over to Gan Wencui.
Those pollution monsters he had killed earlier in the city center, he had used the "Darkness" attribute to devour a large number of shadows, which, as described, were like a filthy pollution pond that didn't disappear.
Gan Wencui... had found this pool of pollution outside the room of nightmares, able to absorb its unique dark power, thus undergoing some subtle changes.
Not only could it speak, but the traces of the Evil God were also suppressed.
Meanwhile,
Su Qi also discovered that they could extract the dark power swallowed from inside the pollution pond,

Black Shadows!
Of course, the failure rate was high...and their strength was weak.
Most shadows initially were just a mass of Chaos; under Gan Wencui's cultivation, they gradually took human shape, and now only barely seventy black shadows had been trained.
Their strength was currently that of ordinary people, and they could only simply understand commands, unable to act autonomously.
For now, Su Qi wasn't planning to recruit more. The more people there are... the more time and energy it would take to train them; he would consider subsequent steps only after cultivating these seventy black shadows into elite Black Shadow Corps.
However,
Several black shadows suddenly "plop" down, falling flat on the deck; some black shadows walked into walls! Others had blank looks in their eyes: "aba aba aba!"
"..."
"Right now, all these stupid black shadows, turning them into an elite corps seems a long way off."
"Fortunately, I have three instructors I've trained myself."
Under Gan Wencui's motherly and fatherly arrangements and commands, two to three hours passed by quickly.
But this investment of time was worth it.
Each black shadow successfully found their own place, and although the ship was huge and composed of all sorts of intricate machinery, operating it was as simple as an assembly line. Even with the clumsy manipulations of the black shadows,
The ship finally began to sail.
The steering was left to Gan Wencui; for a moment, the previously silent and deserted broken ship now buzzed with activity.
"I've just decided something very important."
Hearing Su Qi's extremely serious tone, the Yellow Robed Priest slightly focused; it hadn't seen such an expression on this guy before. "You... decided what?"
"I've decided to name this ship the Black Pearl, and I am the captain... Su Jack Sparrow."
"Damn it!"
The Yellow Robed Priest roared, "How is that an important matter! And..."
"When the hell did you change clothes!"
At this moment,
Su Qi was already sporting a pirate hat adorned with a skull pattern, his right hand turning into an iron hook, clad in a black, flowing long coat that danced with the sea breeze... his one foot resting high on the mast.
