Chapter 237 Black Fog on the Sea

There is also black fog in the Sea of ​​Origin.

That is a disaster deliberately arranged by the system to drive players forward.

But the black fog in front of him is different. It only floats on the sea surface, and the color is thicker, like flowing darkness.

Yang Yi looked at it with his three eyes for a while, then looked at Suna, shook his head, and said that he had no clue.

"A few minutes ago, there was no such black fog on the sea, so it should have just emerged.

And this fog has a body, not an illusion, I can see it with my three eyes."

Suna stared at the black fog for a while, then ran to the warehouse at the stern, intending to use a wooden barrel to scoop some up and see.

Yang Yi was one step faster than her, came to the edge of the boat, tied a live long-legged sardine with the fishing line of the fishing rod, and threw it into the sea.

The sardine entered the water smoothly. There was only a thin layer of fog, and below was the sea water.

The long-legged sardine entered the sea, but Yang Yi soon realized something was wrong.

Because the other end of the fishing line did not have any strength, it was like a dead fish hanging, and it would not move.

Yang Yi lifted the fishing rod and checked the fish, and found that it was indeed dead, and the death was horrifying.

Suna also ran over with a bucket and found Yang Yi staring at the dead fish.

"What happened?" she asked.

"I tried it with a long-legged sardine to see if the black fog was aggressive.

Then the fish died..."

He showed the dead long-legged sardine to Suna.

The fish had no external injuries, its eyes were cloudy, and its scales had lost their luster.

But what was more conspicuous was its four long legs, the skin on which had lost its luster and elasticity, and was wrinkled, like a few rags hanging on its body.

Suna was attracted by the fish and asked for it.

For safety reasons, she brought another long-legged sardine and let the two touch each other to see if it was contagious.

Two minutes later, the other fish did not show any abnormality, but became dying due to lack of oxygen.

Yang Yi picked it up, threw it back into the bucket, and then picked up the dead fish.

"This fish... died of old age." He said to Suna and got the item information.

[Name: Elder Long-legged Sardines]

[Introduction: It... died of old age. ]

"I'll dissect it later."

Suna took the fish and put it in the treasure bag. With its function, it was teleported into the witch laboratory.

"This fog is very thin, less than one centimeter thick, and below is the sea water."

Yang Yi told Suna about his discovery.

The latter nodded, threw down a wooden barrel, tried to scoop it a few times, and then frowned.

Because this fog seemed to be integrated, very thick, and it couldn't be scooped up at all.

Suna tried several times, and the black fog slipped away from the barrel.

She changed several containers in succession and it was the same.

"Let me try."

Yang Yi took the wooden barrel, climbed down along the hull, slowly approached the sea surface, and tried to salvage it.

Quick hands!

He knew that the fog would slide away, so he had to scoop it at a faster speed so that it would not have time to slide away.

Now.

Yang Yi seized the opportunity and fished with great speed. He really fished up a ball of black fog mixed with a lot of sea water.

But after being fished up, the fog became extremely unstable and began to run around in the barrel, changing its shape.

"This black fog seems to be alive!" Yang Yi said in horror.

Before the black fog crawled out of the barrel, Yang Yi threw the barrel out, his eyes still full of disbelief.

Su Na also saw this scene.

"I'll bring a glass container with a lid, wait for me!"

She ran back quickly.

Five minutes later, she got a bottle of black fog as she wished. This thing even ran around in the bottle, like a gaseous life form.

"Be careful, don't leak it." Yang Yi warned.

"I know."

Su Na sent the glass container containing the black fog into the laboratory.

After that, the two conducted a series of tests on the black fog and found that it had a significant effect on animal and plant life, corpses, or food, causing them to age rapidly or deteriorate.

The effect on materials such as stone, bones, glass, wood, and steel is not obvious.

For example, coconuts will deteriorate after contact, and the coconut juice inside will become turbid and smelly water.

The vines will become dry and hard, lose vitality, and can only be used as firewood.

"If you are short of wood, you can use these vines as an emergency, but you can't burn too many..."

Yang Yi said, and a large number of vines suddenly emerged at his feet, as if protesting.

Suna was thoughtful and took a bucket of sea water to the laboratory.

In fact, she has already tested this sea water, which is light black. If it is evaporated, fresh water and black gas will be obtained.

This black gas is extremely unstable and cannot exist for a long time, even if it is sealed and stored in a bottle. It will dissipate in a short time.

Suna has never figured out the origin of this black gas, nor does she understand why it dissipates.

But now she has a clue.

This black gas should be related to the black fog. The reason why it dissipates may be that it is forcibly dispelled by some force, and it is a large-scale dispersal.

There may be some kind of purifying power in the safe zone that can dispel the black fog.

As long as we try to evaporate the seawater again, obtain the black gas, and check whether it will dissipate, we can verify this idea.

She was about to do so.

After Su Na left, Yang Yi was still testing the characteristics of the black fog.

He combined the black fog with the white fog and tried to use fire to dispel it.

"It's useless."

Yang Yi built a brazier at the bow and lit it, but found that it had no effect.

He didn't believe it, so he took out the giant croaker lantern and tried it again, but the result was the same.

It was impossible to dispel the black fog.

Fortunately, the fog only floated on the sea surface, which had no impact on the hull of the Nightmare Star and did not hinder navigation.

Yang Yi looked at the sea map and activated the skill of the lookout at the same time, and got a very clean "white paper". (There was nothing in the picture)

This means that there are no islands around.

He used the three eyes and the greedy eye telescope to observe again, but he didn't find anything, and the feeling was the same.

So Yang Yi chose to move forward in the direction of the previous player island phantom and let the old captain take the helm.

Then he patrolled the deck.

According to the previous system update content, after the teleportation, a points vending machine should be installed on the Nightmare Star.

However, it seemed that there was no one on the deck. Yang Yi turned around and didn't see anything that looked like a vending machine.

"Is it in the cabin?

Or in the captain's room, or in Suna's room?"

Yang Yi came to the captain's room, pushed the door and walked in, and finally saw the vending machine.

To Yang Yi's surprise, this time it was really a vending machine, no longer a monster statue or model.

It's just that this vending machine is very old, as if it has been idle for hundreds of years, the surface is peeling and the paint is peeling, and even the glass window has a hole, and there are even spider webs inside.

Fortunately, there are no goods, otherwise you can reach into the window and take out the goods.

Yang Yi has reason to suspect that this is a vending machine picked up by the system from a garbage dump, and then recycled and modified it.....

No!

Yang Yi found a familiar sign or symbol on the top of this vending machine.

Although it became blurred due to the paint peeling, he would not make a mistake.

It was a bald head, or a bald head, with the lines of the brain in the skull emphatically depicted, similar to a circuit.

The red stone embedded in the brain could no longer be seen because the paint had fallen off, but the pattern was exactly the same as the one Yang Yi had seen on the protein bar box before.
