Noland Lee handed out the magic scrolls, two per person, one for "Mental Shield" and one for "Soul Shield."
Seeing this, Derek Davis patted his chest and promised that he would include the cost of the magic scrolls when distributing the spoils of war.
With the magic scrolls that could protect their minds and souls, the pressure in everyone's hearts eased slightly. However, as the "shasha" noise in their ears worsened, a sense of oppression gathered in the cabin.
"How long until we're out of this sea area?" Derek asked Hudson who was steering the ship.
"About 20 minutes." Hudson complained:
"Damn it, is the range of that communication ritual with outer space so big? We're at least 10 kilometers away from the cargo ship now, but we can still hear this damned alien space noise."
The other team members also started to complain. Some tried covering their ears with their hands, but it was useless.
That "shasha" noise didn't seem to be transmitted through air vibrations.
