Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Page 605

A moment later, a cloud of black smoke suddenly appeared from all directions.

Ryuichi Yokota's expression changed slightly. He could sense that the curse aura emanating from the black smoke was quite strong.

"This guy is really persistent."

Now their troops have suffered heavy losses, and those who remain are in complete disarray, with no will to fight whatsoever.

Everyone was feeling down, and they didn't know how to cope with the situation.

Ryuichi Yokota said to Ron.

"I never expected that something like this would happen so soon after I brought you in."

The curse's attack method is very strange, and now its speed has increased to a whole new level.

Everyone tried their best to catch a trace of him, but obviously all attempts ended in failure.

No one could see his movements clearly.

Moments later, two more people collapsed.

These two were quite strong, but they fell to the ground before they could even let out a scream.

A deep knife wound still remained on his neck.

225. Fierce Battle

Now everyone is even more panicked, they never expected that the guy they've encountered this time would be so terrifying.

Ryuichi Yokota brandished his sword and shouted.

"Who is it? Why are you so cowardly? Come out and let's fight to the death."

He was furious, but the other party completely ignored him.

Immediately afterwards, another person was stabbed and collapsed to the ground.

Everyone quickly helped him up and found that the knife mark on his neck was relatively shallow, indicating that his throat had not been cut in one stroke.

The man screamed and shouted.

"Get me out of here right now, that damn guy has his eye on me."

Everyone hurriedly led him away, but soon another knife wound appeared on the man's neck.

He slashed him in full view of everyone, yet no one noticed his arrival at all.

Everyone panicked even more; this guy was terrifying.

Some people have already considered leaving. They joined the team to protect themselves and to slay the curses.

But they never expected to encounter such a terrifying opponent, and this time they didn't even have the slightest power to resist.

"Everyone, stay calm and don't panic."

Although this opponent is formidable, I believe we have the ability to defeat it.

"Yokota Ryuichi said loudly."

In fact, even he himself wasn't sure.

He quickly reorganized the group, but they had no fighting spirit whatsoever.

At the slightest sign of trouble, they immediately scattered.

Getting them back together would be incredibly difficult.

Ryuichi Yokota shook his head helplessly.

These guys look incredibly tough, but when it comes to actual combat, they're like a silver-plated spearhead—completely useless.

Ron said.

"The most urgent thing now is to get everyone to disperse quickly and prevent them from gathering again."

Even if we band together, we're no match for that guy, so we can't just stand together and become his sitting ducks.

Ryuichi Yokota said with some surprise.

"But once we're separated, it's very difficult for us to get back together."

If our forces are scattered, we'll be even less of a match for that guy; he'll pick us off one by one.

Ron shook his head.

"Take my advice and separate them quickly."

Ryuichi Yokota looked into Ron's eyes, and after a moment he gritted his teeth and dispersed everyone.

Everyone scattered in a panic.

Just then, the sky and earth suddenly changed color, and sandstorms swept in from all sides, making it impossible for everyone to open their eyes.

"How is this going?"

Everyone is panicking, especially under the current circumstances.

They couldn't see anything, which meant they had no power to resist.

Suddenly, several muffled thuds were heard, and three more people fell to the ground.

However, this time their injuries were not on their necks.

Instead, there was a huge hole in his chest, as if something had pierced through it.

Everyone wanted to gather around to check, but they were also worried about being ambushed, so they were torn between two options.

"Yokota Ryuichi said loudly."

"Spread out quickly, and whatever you do, don't gather together."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Ron, who nodded.

They then dispersed once again.

But this time, with the sandstorm, they couldn't go far at all.

Even if they are scattered, they are still within this area.

Ryuichi Yokota frowned deeply.

"I never expected something like this to happen."

Suddenly Ron saw a dark shadow appear in the distance.

As the shadow appeared, a huge black hand suddenly reached out to grab them.

"What is that? Is it a curse?"

Someone shouted loudly, but was immediately engulfed by the enormous hand.

Ron also saw the giant hand. He told Yokota Ryuichi to quickly call over the people.

He then rushed over.

"Danger!"

Nai Zi tried to grab Ron, but she missed.

A moment later, Ron was standing in front of the giant hand.

The enormous hand seemed to be sentient, and it visibly paused when it saw Ron.

He then lunged fiercely at Ron.

Ron moved quickly to avoid the opponent's attack.

At the same time, he saw Ryuichi Yokota rush up as well.

Ryuichi Yokota was extremely brave; he almost unleashed his full fighting power.

"This is the legendary Dark Hand, perhaps even the most powerful attack of the curse. Be careful."

There must be a very powerful curse nearby, secretly watching everything here.

This was what Ryuichi Yokota said to Ron.

Ron nodded; he could also sense a very powerful aura nearby.

But he still hasn't noticed where the other person is.

Another round of dodging ensued.

Ryuichi Yokota was suddenly struck by that enormous hand and sent flying.

Ron quickly chased after him, trying to catch him.

But a moment later, Ron felt as if he had entered a new world.

All I could see was a hazy grayness, so dark I couldn't see my hand in front of my face.

But he could hear all sorts of sounds ringing in his ears.

Some of the voices were familiar to him, while others felt very unfamiliar.

Ron said loudly.

"Where am I? Is anyone here?"
