Chapter 566: Blocking with Supernatural Power
Fog shrouded the sea and the cargo ship, permeating every inch of the ship. Some cabins remained fog-free due to tightly shut doors, although eventually, all were breached by some mysterious force.
At that very moment, Lin Xi and her companions were in the control room, watching as the CCTV footage was gradually consumed by the fog until nothing could be seen on the screen.
Su Hui understood exactly what this meant: the fog had taken over most of the cabins. The eerily controlled manner in which it engulfed areas step-by-step made it seem as if it was under some kind of command.
Gu Ling sat on the floor, embracing her knees, her face pale and trembling: "It’s no good... We can’t escape."
"Don’t be afraid, Xiaoling, with your future sister-in-law here, there’s nothing we can’t handle." Lin Xi assured her, despite feeling a touch of fear facing the unknown herself.
On one of the CCTV screens, a crew member was seen attempting to flee, chased by the encroaching fog. Suddenly, it seemed as if something extended from the fog, grabbed the crewman by the collar, and dragged him back into the mist.
Through the screen, they could sense the man’s desperate scream. The scene caused Qin Jia to shudder with fear as well, placing all her hopes in Lin Xi, the group’s most capable member.
Su Hui tried to comfort the group: "Don’t be scared. We’re safe as long as the cabin doors stay shut and keep the fog out."
Nonetheless, Qin Jia remained worried: "But Sister Su, did you see how something forcefully blew the doors open? Gu Fan and the others had to escape through another passage. We don’t have another escape route. If something attacks, we’ll be trapped."
