The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 275 - 199: Follow the Ghost Ship! Fall into Hell!_2
They could hardly pay attention to the words of a suddenly appearing person; they were in a moment of critical life-and-death!
"Your Highness Black Shadow, trouble you... to take down the sails and ride the white current in the direction of three o'clock!"
"This is our only chance!"
The entire Black Pearl was steered by the Black Shadows, led by the three of them all the way, with many requests being answered. They held these three mysterious entities in awe, for they had clearly brought them hope in their direst moments.
But now.
The three Black Shadows did not respond to their pleas; instead, they... slowly cleared space. A multitude of Black Shadows emerged from every shadowy nook within the ship's cabin, standing mightily on deck.

The crowd watched this scene in shock: "What's going on?"
"The Black Shadows responsible for the entire ship... came out from inside."
"Your Highness Black Shadow, at this critical juncture..." Fang Li's brows furrowed as he said, "Why stop?"
The navigation of the Black Pearl itself was the responsibility of the Black Shadows. The crew only needed to chant and perform ceremonies to ensure the ship would not be overtaken by Sea Demons. But now, with the ship completely motionless, everyone felt an immense pressure.
Su Qi pondered, "Maybe it's because they think your idea is too insane, unwilling to take the risk."
Fang Li: "????Isn't your method even more insane? No, that's outright suicidal!"
Su Qi said, "Not necessarily..."
He looked at the Black Shadows: "Now, set sail!"
"?" Brother Ye suddenly sensed something and looked towards the Black Shadows.
Incredibly, the three Black Shadows started moving; they hoisted the large sails that hadn't been used during their previous escape.
Fang Li and the others: "???"
"Wait, what are they doing?"
The crowd wanted to escape, to rush into the eye of the storm along the current—a feat that would certainly require great speed. Raising the sails at this moment would only increase resistance and become their burden.
And most importantly.
Why would His Highness Black Shadow listen to the commands of this young man???
"Turn the rudder, aim for the eye of the storm," Su Qi said gently.
Black Shadows quickly took the helm in unison.
Countless Sea Demons roared; the crew, witnessing this, couldn't free their hands to do anything else but fight anxiously.
Brother Ye watched this with a foreboding feeling. Fools were still puzzled why the Black Shadows listened to Su Buxian, while the wise already trembled, grabbing onto nearby masts with forced chuckles: "Brother Su, are you really planning to rush through it?"
"What else?"
"It's impossible!" Brother Ye exclaimed in fear: "Even if I scored twelve points in high school physics, I can see that it's impossible to get through unless the ship can fly!"
"Just need to have an initial acceleration," Su Qi stated lightly.
"I..." Brother Ye shivered: "It's not easy to meet once, Brother Su, I want to return in one piece."
"Then be careful."
"...."
Su Qi also glanced at the time, almost there:
"Gan Wencui, you may withdraw for now."
The surrounding Black Shadows respectfully responded to the gloomy voice, "Yes, Captain!"
Around them, the mass of Black Shadows melded into the darkness, slowly vanishing from sight.
At this moment, Su Qi had already taken the position at the helm and said, "Next, gentlemen, follow the great Black Pearl…"
"Into Hell together."
A terrifying wind screamed suddenly!
Everyone looked back in horror!
The colossal Sea Demon, like a black hole's maw, drew a deep breath, its body rapidly and hugely expanding to five times its original size, like a balloon!
And Brother Ye finally understood the source of that so-called acceleration.
He was stunned for a moment, then roared suddenly, "Everyone, forget the Sea Demons, grab onto anything you can find around you!"
"Here it comes!"
Like a sweeping tempest, a terrifying gale burst forth in an unstoppable, forceful flood!
Patrick, though simple-minded, remembered the exact time to burst; his essential reliability in clutch moments proved to be incredibly imposing.
In an instant!
The sails of the Black Pearl underwent a severe deformation, thankfully the ships of Devil's Sea were no ordinary vessels and could withstand such forces.
The rear of the whole ship split open, as if blasted by a cannon!
"Hold on!" The crowd looked in dismay at this spectacle.
Fang Li's face turned pale as he looked at Brother Ye: "Brother Ye, could he be right? Can we truly fly into the eye of the storm, or are we going to die in there?"
Brother Ye: "....."
Who are you asking? Who should I ask?
He held his face in frustration: "Anyway, do your best, don't let go... Ahhhh...."
The Black Pearl suddenly picked up speed again!
The entire ship roared and flew out!
Beneath the violent tossing, numerous Sea Demons fell into the Abyss, and everyone's faces turned pale as they tightly grasped everything around them.
And Su Qi slowly took control of the ship's rudder, intending to cross thousands of kilometers with precision under the massive wind funnel and land on the ripples of the sixth layer's passage. This required fine-tuning, and the slightest mistake would cause a direct crash, tearing everything apart.
Everyone clearly knew this, and many looked towards the sail with anxious and uneasy expressions.
But they discovered... the sail was rotating in an orderly way, and the ship was indeed flying steadily.
Fang Li muttered, "How extraordinary must the computational power and situational responsiveness be..."
Suddenly, he looked at Su Qi and exclaimed in terror, "What the hell, you're still looking back!"
At this moment, Su Qi's attention wasn't on the direction of flight.
He still had an important thing to do.
Su Qi looked at the deep red apparition, a seemingly unconscious wandering spirit that was staring at him.
Right then and there, instead of erupting to impede them, it actually extended its hands, and a massive amount of deep red currents slowly surged towards Patrick!
"So, that's how it is."
Its goal didn't appear to be to stop them from escaping but... Patrick.
The reason it had fixated on him, to actively approach.
It was all because of Patrick...
Was this god so deeply in love with Brother Hai Xing?
At this moment, Patrick's eyes were filled with rage, "Back off! Back off, you stinkin' thing! Don't think about controlling me again! I, Patrick... am not afraid of you!"
Its struggle to break free was immensely powerful! The deep red apparition even slightly fluctuated, with a question mark above its head displaying two characters.
[Greed]
Brother Hai Xing's constitution seemed incredibly special... after all, sometimes he appears clumsy but always manages to act contrary to what's expected.
Just like...
Su Qi was calculating the distance and slowly pulled out an item from his waist, a crystal-clear conch that was something unique to Brother Hai Xing, usually kept in his trousers.
At this very moment, it was displaying information.
[Patrick's Favorite Magical Conch]
[Quality: Legend]
[Consumption: None]
[Equipment introduction: One day, Patrick's hometown turned to ruins, all his good friends vanished, he felt abandoned and stored all his memories inside the conch, hoping to one day find his hometown and friends again]
[Effect: When you use it, it can open a passage]
[Note: Congratulations on earning Hai Xing's friendship, for only a trusted friend can use it, but also please be cautious, and do not use it lightly unless absolutely necessary, it's highly unstable, possessing a power that's dreadfully taboo, be careful not to awaken it completely]
"Brother Hai Xing..." Su Qi looked at Patrick and said, "It's time to go with me..."
The conch suddenly started to flicker and emit a melodious conch sound.
Patrick, who was still struggling fiercely, suddenly stiffened and looked over in a daze.
It gradually shrank, and its colossal tentacles swiftly shrank.
"Pop!"
In an instant, Patrick sprung back to its small starfish form and fell into the water.
Everyone watched this scene in bewilderment.
Including the deep red apparition, which also stirred slightly as if it wanted to envelop the surrounding eerie power and once again turn Patrick into a cursed breeding ground.
But the next moment.
Patrick stuck its head out directly from a bucket on the ship:
"...I feel like... something inside the conch was calling me..."
Everyone's eyes widened in shock: "What the fuck!"
How did it get over here!
Su Qi tossed the conch to him, "You play with this... I'm guessing someone's going to freak out soon."
Everyone suddenly felt their hair stand on end, and as they turned around, they were drenched in cold sweat.
Because the deep red apparition was almost touching the Black Pearl, close enough to grasp, its huge hollow eyes staring fixedly at Patrick and Su Qi like two meteorites!
"I won't stay for dinner then."
Su Qi also let go of the rudder and waved his hand, "No need to see me out, just to the door is fine."
"See you next time."
The next moment.
The whole Black Pearl disappeared into the storm, pierced through everything, and rushed into the ripples of the sixth layer's passage.
