Chapter 70: Fishing Profits (II)
As Garuk had predicted, the surrounding corpse demon lords, without exception, were all shattered by this blow to the last trace of fighting spirit, and they all fled to the unicorn peak with screams, and soon disappeared.
As Garuk had expected, the surrounding corpse demon lords, without exception, were shattered by this blow to the last trace of fighting spirit, and they all fled to the unicorn peak with screams, and soon disappeared.
"Well done!" Luo Ning secretly praised in his heart, and also stopped the magic, allowing the corpse demon demon who was fighting with him to fly away.
"Yay——"
"We won!"
"Roaring ——"
"Kill those big bone birds!"
Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, the mercenaries immediately began to cheer and cheer happily to celebrate the victory in the battle!
Although this battle did not last long, the corpse demon owls were strong and numerous, and they came very suddenly, which was indeed very unfavorable for the mercenaries of the crusading army. Several mercenary group leaders have a spicy eye, and they all know that if it weren't for the two orc mercenaries of the "Journey to the West Mercenary Group", one monkey and one pig, they would have reversed the situation at this time.
Don Nelson glanced at the crowd around him and chuckled, "How? Now you should always believe what I said, right? Judging by the strength they showed, I am inferior to them!"
The leaders of the regiment silently bowed their heads, secretly guessing the true origin of these three people.
Of course, none of this Garouch nor Ronin knew. The former returned to the deck and was surrounded by a group of mercenaries and praised him, while the latter was in a very different situation.
"Whew! Great, I've finally repelled those demons!" When Luo Ning turned around with a smile on his face, he was met with a pair of moist eyes full of mixed emotions.
Excitement, anticipation, worry, melancholy...... There was so much flow of emotion in Karen's eyes that Ronin could see and couldn't see. Luo Ning didn't know how much perseverance he had paid, so he finally resisted the urge and didn't take the lovely person in front of him into his arms.
It's been four hundred and forty-eight days since he and Karen last met! Ronin remembers the growing number vividly. And the flow of time has not diminished its unforgettable.
“...... Ronin, is that you?" After a long silence, Karen suddenly called softly. She held her breath and stared unblinkingly at the unfamiliar face, hoping for an answer.
This short sentence was like an invisible palm, which instantly clenched Luo Ning's heart painfully. Struggling to maintain the last shred of sanity, Luo Ning pretended to have a blank expression: "Luo Ning? hehe, this young lady, are you talking about the kid who killed his classmates and betrayed Morrowind Academy......?
"Shut up!" Karen's face turned cold instantly, and there was a faint whirlwind around her body. Luo Ning's words extinguished the anticipation in her heart, making her suddenly turn around and leave.
From the moment Ronin blocked Karen's attack on Karen, the goddess's gaze remained glued to him. At this time, seeing Karen leave with a cold face, he walked up to Luo Ning and asked, "Why did you lie to her? It shouldn't matter if you just told her, right? Or do you not want to see her?"
Luo Ning gave her a blank look, turned around and put his back and arms on the railing, and looked at the black section on the top of the mast in a daze: "Of course I want to! Every day, every minute and every second I think about it! You know, when she called out my name just now, my heartbeat missed a beat, and I almost couldn't help but confess to her! But unfortunately, I can't do this!"
"Why?"
Luo Ning gave her a blank look and did not answer.
"Because the two great astrologers who coaxed each other said: If I want to change the outcome of the flame giant's sword annihilation, I can only leave all my relatives and lovers, enter the elemental spirit world alone to obtain the secret treasure, and continue to become stronger until I gain the power comparable to the demigods, and kill the person who killed Wendy and Karen in advance, and let me incarnate as a flame giant to slash the world with a sword. After pondering this reason several times in his mind, Luo Ning still felt that it was not convincing, and simply refused to answer.
The goddess struck him with her elbow, only to hit her own arm.
"Don't say it, who is rare!" the goddess left the deck in a huff, leaving Ronin alone to blow the sea breeze in the bow of the ship.
At the same time, in another sea area about two or three nautical miles away from the sailboat, Pierce, the leader of the Belling Mercenary Regiment, watched with a calm expression as a dozen wounded corpse demon owls flew to the side of the ship and plunged headlong into a circular light gate on the bow of the ship. Captain Willis leaned against a wooden box with a cigarette pot in his hand, his expression particularly solemn.
Not long ago, Pierce suddenly smashed a black crystal ball on the deck.
"Pierce, do you have so much money that you have nowhere to spend it? This is a magic crystal ball made of dark crystal! Such a big price, to say the least, will cost 500,000 gold coins!!"
"Somebody has to walk through the darkness!" I want ...... Their hands have always been clean!" Pierce, who had always been reticent, suddenly said these unfinished words.
Captain Willis was about to ask for an explanation, when he saw a circular light gate more than ten meters high suddenly appear not far in front of him. One by one, the corpse demon owls from the Endless Abyss emerged from the light portal and flew into the air to circle the ship.
"Damn, Pierce, don't you want to die? Summoning undead creatures from the Endless Abyss! If you let those wives know,"
"They won't know! You're a friend, and I won't bother you!" replied Pierce, solemnly. Apparently he understood what Captain Willis was worried about, too. It is true that in the human nations of the Lost Continent, any summoning related to undead creatures is strictly forbidden. Once Pierce's behavior was discovered, not only the Monotheistic Cult, but also the kings and emperors would not allow him to continue to live. The tide of necromancy that has lasted for thousands of years has taken too many lives. The hatred between humans and undead creatures has become an abyss in sight, and even time cannot heal it.
This answer warmed Captain Willis's heart, but he still cursed and said, "Damn it! That's not good! Even if no one tells you, it's still too dangerous for you to do this, if these guys suddenly turn back,"
"Then I'll kill them!
"Why?"
"The creatures in the ocean spirit realm are more powerful than the corpse demon owls!"
Captain Willis then understood the purpose of Pierce's summoning of this group of undead creatures - to test the strength of the joint crusade force!
This strategy is wonderful, but if it is not a tiger but a cat, it will be a complete disaster!
Captain Willis took a sharp puff on his cigarette pot: "What a madman!"
