Chapter 278 Devil! There is a devil on the island!

The night gradually darkened and the starlight covered the sky again. In the makeshift camp, a slender figure sat alone on a wooden platform.

"I hope sister can find this place soon!"

Shen Xing looked at the endless sea in the distance and said with some concern.

She always felt that there was something strange on this island. Not only other people, but she also felt that she was a little extreme.

Although she was proud in her heart, her years of family upbringing would not allow her to say what she just said in front of everyone.

"what!"

Just as Shen Xing was lost in thought, in the silent night, a shrill scream broke the water-like silence.

"not good!"

Shen Xing stood up immediately, her four soul rings immediately appeared, and she jumped down from the observation deck.

The sound came from inside the camp!
When she arrived at the source of the sound, the soldiers from the barracks next door had already surrounded it.

This was a simple wooden house built of wood. Even through some gaps, the snow-white moonlight leaked in. In the dim barracks, a man lay in a pool of blood.

"Xu Xiaohai?"

Shen Xing frowned and looked aside. Several soldiers pressed Xu Xiaohai to the ground. Next to his feet was a bloody dagger.

"Staff Officer Shen, he killed Old Xing!"

The soldier next to him stared at Xu Xiaohai angrily and said with certainty.

When they came over, they saw Xu Xiaohai squatting there, and Lao Xing had already died.

"It wasn't me! I just saw Old Xing sneaking around at night, so I followed him out, but I didn't expect that Old Xing would die right away."

Xu Xiaohai said unconvinced.

Shen Xing didn't say anything, but looked around and asked with a frown.

"Where's the pirate?"

Everyone looked at each other and finally shook their heads.

"do not know!"

"Yes! This must have been killed by that pirate! When I came in, I heard some noise behind me."

Xu Xiaohai, who was lying on the ground, had a flushed face and pointed at a thigh-wide crack in the corner and said.

"Then why don't you say that you deliberately let the pirate go and put the blame on him? Otherwise, why would Old Xing come here in the middle of the night?"

A soldier sneered, lowered his head and kicked him.

This kid usually shows off a lot, and finally he got the chance.

"How is this going?"

Just then, Adjutant Lin came over with a lamp.

The soldier at the side stepped forward and explained to him slightly, but Shen Xing in front of him frowned and said.

"What kind of oil are you burning?"

There was a faint fragrance coming from Adjutant Lin's oil lamp.

"Oh! This is whale oil made from whale blubber. It's more resistant to burning and has a nice fragrance. My dad likes to use this."

Adjutant Lin explained briefly. Shen Xing nodded, then she waved her hand and spoke to everyone.

"Tie him up first, and then catch the pirate during the day."

Shen Xing felt that there was something strange about Old Xing's death.

"Wait! I think since there are witnesses, it would be better to just kill him to avoid worrying everyone."

"What if this guy is colluding with the pirates to attack us? We are caught off guard."

"This bandit suppression campaign is really a bit strange. We have comprehensive intelligence, but this pirate escaped from his lair. Maybe there is a traitor."

Adjutant Lin narrowed his eyes and said with a worried look on his face.

"What do you mean?"

Shen Xing said coldly.

Her beautiful eyes looked at Adjutant Lin, but the other party shrugged.

"Isn't this for everyone's sake?"

Adjutant Lin chuckled and spoke to everyone.

"What do you think?"

Everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak.

At this moment, two figures suddenly rushed into the camp. They were the two scouts who went out during the day.

But now the two were in very bad condition, with unkempt hair and dirty faces, looking like beggars, and their clothes were torn into rags by the branches.

"Tied."

Shen Xing glanced at Xu Xiaohai, then walked towards the two scouts who had returned.

The two soldiers who were holding Xu Xiaohai looked at Adjutant Lin. Adjutant Lin raised his eyebrows and said unhappily.

"Tied! Didn't you hear me?"

After he finished speaking, he walked over with the lantern in hand, and everyone followed him.

After the two scouts entered the camp, they did not speak, but squatted beside the campfire, curled up their bodies, and leaned towards the campfire.

Even though the flames had already burned their clothes, they didn't care and let the flames burn on their bodies. "You are looking for death!"

Adjutant Lin stepped forward, pulled the two men out, and extinguished the flames on their bodies.

"What happened to you?"

Seeing this, Shen Xing had a bad feeling in his heart.

Upon hearing this, the two of them suddenly raised their heads, showed everyone a crazy smile, and spoke incoherently.

"Devil! There is a devil here! We will all die, we all deserve to die!"

The two people were crying and laughing, and their hideous smiles looked particularly creepy under the firelight.

"What nonsense are you two talking about! What devil!"

Adjutant Lin slapped the two men in the face and shouted loudly, suppressing their voices.

But the two of them looked at Adjutant Lin at the same time, their eyes instantly turned red, and their eyeballs bulged out almost popping out.

Wisps of red mist that no one noticed emanated from their bodies and drifted across the entire camp.

"We exchanged our lives for this, why don't you believe it?"

They roared angrily, their necks stiffened and made a creaking sound.

"Goo~"

Adjutant Lin was frightened by the appearance of the two men and took a step back.

Immediately afterwards, the two men rushed over and stabbed his throat with the daggers in their hands.

The two sides were too close to each other and Adjutant Lin had no time to dodge. In desperation, he reached out and pulled a soldier next to him to block the attack for him.

Ah!
With a scream, the soldier vomited blood and died directly.

"Go to hell! Go to hell!"

The two men wanted to attack again, but suddenly a blue light flashed, Shen Xing appeared behind them, and knocked them out with the handle of the military dagger.

puff!puff!
Two more muffled groans were heard, and a cut was made in the chest of the two unconscious people, and blood gushed out.

"what are you doing!"

Shen Xing glared at Adjutant Lin and said, a black shadow appeared on Adjutant Lin's body at this time. It was an eight-tentacle octopus, with four soul rings floating behind him. Two of the tentacles pierced the hearts of the two people just now.

"They've gone crazy! Do you want to kill us?"

Adjutant Lin said in a cold voice, and he stopped pretending to be nice to Shen Xing.

The kindness of women!

Shen Xing narrowed her eyes and looked at Adjutant Lin. Four soul rings also lit up behind her.

But she glanced at the anxious crowd and finally decided to give up.

The field fell into silence. The experience of this night made everyone tense.

"So there really is a devil?"

someone whispered.

"Impossible! Nonsense, they may have just eaten hallucinogenic food by mistake."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xing said in a decisive tone.

At this time, we must not let people have such absurd ideas, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

In times of despair, the ugliness of human nature will be fully displayed.

This is a case that has never happened in naval history!
"I said so!"

At this time, Adjutant Lin didn't dare to contradict Shen Xing anymore and just laughed it off.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and their tense emotions relaxed.

"what!"

Just at this moment, a scream suddenly came from behind, and a soldier who was originally guarding Xu Xiaohai fell in a pool of blood.

Xu Xiaohai lay on his body and bit off his neck. He raised his head, and his bloody mouth looked so creepy in the night, especially his angry eyes, which were exactly the same as the two people just now.

"Devil! There really is a devil!"

Finally, some people couldn't hold it anymore, and several people rushed directly towards Xu Xiaohai on the ground, swinging their swords down continuously.

puff!puff!puff!
Muffled sounds were heard, as well as Xu Xiaohai's screams.

Finished!

When Shen Xing saw this scene, his face turned pale.

After the men stopped, Xu Xiaohai had turned into a pile of mud.

They were covered in blood, but the happy smiles on their faces were extremely terrifying. They looked at each other and took a step back cautiously.

No one on the field dared to speak anymore, and everyone quietly kept their distance.

An atmosphere of fear and suspicion permeated the field. All martial spirits were attached to the body, alerting their companions who might suddenly go crazy.

There is no devil? Then what about Xu Xiaohai just now!

Shen Xing pursed her red lips and took a step forward.

At this time, she had to come out to ease the atmosphere.

But before she could say anything, the snow-white moonlight suddenly disappeared. Dark clouds covered the bright moon in the sky. Only the faint fire was left, making it impossible to see the faces of the people around.
