The fatty couldn't help but shiver, his hair standing on end.

The video ended abruptly there.

The sound disappeared as well.

"Holy crap, what the hell is that?" The fatty wrapped his clothes tighter around himself, his face unnatural.

After seeing the strange laughing face just now, he didn't feel good at all.

Without a doubt, the team that appeared in the video just now should be the missing team. This video was left behind before they disappeared.

They were obviously dead.

"That ghost ship only appears at night, and before it appears, a large amount of fog will appear on the lake. The ghost ship comes out of the white fog."

Huai Yi had put in a lot of effort to get this information.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Cheng asked, "Is there any information about the tour boat accident?"

"Yes." Huai Yi said, "This is a video taken at the scene at the time."

A tour boat could be seen sailing from a distance. At first, everything was normal, but when it reached the center of the lake, it suddenly stopped. Then, a storm suddenly rose on the calm lake.

The tour boat began to shake violently, and then suddenly capsized, sinking in a very short period of time. The people on board didn't even have time to call for help.

"This video has been edited." Huai Yi said, "But I can't find the original video. Look here, pay attention to the waterline of the boat, and compare it with the normal sailing of the boat at the beginning."

After comparison, everyone found that when the boat suddenly stopped, it was not because of an engine failure, but as if it was forcibly stopped there by some force in the water and could not move forward.

Subsequently, the waterline of the boat gradually rose. A mysterious force underwater lifted the entire boat up, and then overturned it violently.

This was the real cause of the accident.

As if thinking of something, the fatty's eyes suddenly changed. He subconsciously looked at Jiang Cheng, opened his mouth, but after thinking about it, he swallowed the words back.

What he thought of, Jiang Cheng naturally thought of as well. This incident made him instinctively recall that mysterious island.

There seemed to be a mysterious force in Lake Costner, most likely like that whale, some huge and mysterious creature lurking in the deep water.

It seemed that the tour boat was dragged into another strange space, and the channel connecting the real world would only open when certain conditions were met.

This reminded Jiang Cheng of a legend he had once seen—Sunset Land.

According to legend, the world is divided into two realms, one realm for life, called the Realm of Life, which is the world of the living, and the other realm for death, the Realm of Death, also known as the Realm of the Undead, which is the world of the dead.

The two realms of life and death do not interfere with each other, and the rumored Sunset Land is the channel connecting the two realms of life and death, also known as the end of the world by explorers.

Some people said that they had reached Sunset Land, and the end of the world was still the sea.

He only saw the scene there after a shipwreck, in a near-death state of drowning.

There was no gold everywhere as rumored, but countless sunken ships, and the lingering undead on the sunken ships.

The sea here is the gate to Sunset Land.

It's like a mirror.

You can never find Sunset Land along the mirror surface, because it is in the world behind the mirror.

The ghost ship incident in Lake Costner is very similar to this. The lake surface is the mirror surface, and the ghost ship is dragged into a mirror world similar to Sunset Land.

This also explains why the wreckage of the sunken ship cannot be found in the lake.

This incident opened up new ideas for Jiang Cheng. Following his line of thought, if Lake Costner is a smaller version of Sunset Land, then what about the nightmare?

Could the nightmare be the connected mirror world?

Behind every supernatural event is a smaller version of Sunset Land. They are like holes corroded between two worlds. At specific times and places, things in nightmares will crawl out along the holes and launch an invasion of the real world.

After the holes increase, they become connected, just like termites hollowing out a dam. When the barrier between reality and nightmare collapses, the nightmare world will overlap with the real world in an unprecedented way.

This idea was too terrifying, but Jiang Cheng thought it was very likely.

The purpose of the Night Watchmen is to eliminate supernatural events, block and seal the holes where nightmares erode the real world, and prevent the real terror from descending on the world after the barrier collapses.

Now... everything makes sense.

And the purpose of Crimson is probably to open up Sunset Lands, break the barrier between the nightmare and the real world, and ferry the nightmare world to overlap with reality.

Old questions were explained, and new questions surfaced.

What is Crimson's purpose in doing this?

Jiang Cheng couldn't see for the time being what benefits the descent of the nightmare world into the human world would bring them.

Through his contact with Crimson, Jiang Cheng was sure that these people were not irrational madmen. They acted meticulously, their goals were accurate, and they were a group of desperate people who were not afraid of life and death and did not care about gains and losses.

Risk must be proportional to return. They dared to risk the world's disapproval, to be enemies with the Night Watchmen, and even the entire world, there must be amazing benefits.

And this benefit must be related to the nightmare and the secret of the door.

But with limited information, even if he thought about it again, he couldn't think of anything new. He could only wait to obtain new clues before reorganizing the matter clearly.

While Jiang Cheng was thinking, Lin Wan'er's phone lit up. She received a message, and Lin Wan'er's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.

Huai Yi also saw that Jiang Cheng and the others' expressions were not right, so he took the initiative to close the video.

For him, watching such information would still cause him mental stimulation.

Every supernatural event is a life-and-death gamble.

Choosing to go is putting your life on the gambling table, and what's even more tragic is that for gamblers like him, no matter whether they win or lose, they can't leave alive in the end.

As disciples, they are all slaves of the door, using their lives to support the door. Once they are unable to pay the door's demands, that day will be their death.

Control the power of the curse, and finally die from the curse, a complete cycle.

Lin Wan'er slowly stood up, "Let's stop here today, we still have things to do." She tilted her head to look at Jiang Cheng, "Xue Jinhua has asked me to negotiate at the studio."

Jiang Cheng's eyes changed slightly, "This is my business, don't interfere."

"I didn't want to interfere, she took the initiative to call me." Lin Wan'er buttoned up her trench coat one by one, revealing her curvy figure.

Huai Yi swallowed hard as he watched. Lin Wan'er had a mysterious aura that attracted people to kiss her, which was not comparable to the young ladies in his seaside villa.

"What did you say to her?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"I reminded her to have some decency, and immediately make up for what she owes Pi Ruan. She's lived such a long life, she's living like a dog. Don't cause trouble for herself, wait until I come to her door to slap her, and then everyone's face will be ugly."
