Chapter 116: Cruise Ship (14)
The moment Lamia dissipated, a long, haunting whale song suddenly rose from the distant sea.
The mournful cry was like a funeral bell the ocean tolled for the departed, vibrating painfully in the heart. Everyone who heard the whale song was overwhelmed with sorrow, unable to hold back their tears.
But now was not the time to weep.
Everly lifted her tear-blurred eyes toward the distant sea.
There, the Mary Jane, hurled by the humanoid fish monster, was sinking slowly, bottom-up.
As the ship descended, it created powerful whirlpools around it. Some were lucky—they managed to swim out the instant the cruise ship hit the water, escaping the danger zone. But many others, trapped in the cabins or injured, could not get clear of the vessel immediately.
When the latter finally regained mobility and tried to escape the sinking ship, they found themselves caught in the whirlpool, powerless against the pull, being dragged beneath the waves.
Misha, George, Gene, Penny, the captain, Mark… familiar faces flashed before Everly’s eyes. She held back her grief and forced herself into action.
She had a strong feeling—she could save them all!
