Chapter 31: The Killer
Volume II, Chapter 31, The Killer
Da Liang, Juliet, and Sophia made it through the portal to the deck of the Black Pearl, where the Sky Battleship was in the air, with the turquoise ocean below and the coast fading below the horizon.
The Black Pearl is a sailing ship, originally the hull was made of wood, and later after the establishment of the Great Tomb Alchemy Laboratory, as a major platform for the study of the god plane, the Black Pearl has undergone magic changes again and again. The materials of the hull have been completely replaced with alchemy metal from the inside out, which is lightweight and has ultra-high physical and energy defense.
Three-tiered artillery deck with a side gun door.
Three masts, the middle mast can launch the Titan Divine Thunder; The sails are made of archangel wings; The bow of the ship is like a golden dragon head.
The Power Cores have been optimized several times by Nicole to provide ample mana for the entire ship. When the power is fully running, it can reach the flight speed of some extraordinary creatures, and it is the fastest space battleship in the hero world.
After they boarded the Black Pearl, they walked down the stairs into the captain's room in the stern, where a nautical chart was already laid out on the tactical table.
After Da Liang sat in the captain's seat, a projection of Black Pearl wearing a sailing suit and a triangular nautical hat appeared next to him.
"Welcome Captain aboard the Black Pearl, I am your first mate from now on." Black Pearl entered the battle mode, strictly abiding by the sailing etiquette, and after saluting Da Liang and explaining her duties, she said, "Please ask the captain to plan this route and the tasks to be performed." ”
Da Liang said to Black Pearl, "Closely monitor the nearby airspace, all flying objects that may spot us...... Shoot them all down. ”
"Yes, Captain."
On the stern of the Black Pearl is a tower-shaped mana amplification device that greatly enhances the effects of the magic released. At the top of the magic amplification device, a closed magic eye is hovering.
After the black pearl received Da Liang's order, the originally closed demon eye instantly opened, emitting a scarlet light. Then the magic eye rotated in the air, and a series of magic beams shot out from the inside of the pupil, and soon a magic net monitoring circle was established around the Black Pearl.
After casting the surveillance magic, the MONOCULUS continued to rotate slowly......
After giving the order to the Black Pearl, Da Liang picked up the command pole and pointed to a point in the ocean and said, "Budong Island is our target this time...... According to the speed of the Black Pearl, we will be able to reach the waters near Budong Island in 12 hours.
Due to the Scarab's ability to detect air targets beyond visual range, it ...... To increase the suddenness of the attack, we went underwater as we approached Budong Island, sneaked up to the vicinity of Budong Island, and then lifted off to attack the Scarab Company's potion manufacturing plant on the island.
Now Juliet has a description of the island's military power, especially the distribution of warships, air defense, and the Silver Wing......"
Juliet took the command pole from Da Liang's hand and pointed around the island to tell the story of the defense of Budong Island.
……
Da Liang flew towards Budong Island with the Black Pearl, ready to knock the scarab company on the mountain.
Sir Charles, who was in Saroyan, received a postcard.
The postcard has an address on it, as well as a pattern of a coiled snake.
After recognising the pattern on the postcard, Sir Charles couldn't help but sigh: the time has finally come.
In the last attack, Sir Charles thought that he and Jessica had been exposed about killing Special Security Service agents on the farm, but the Deputy Director of Special Security Bureau, Kemille, came over with a group of agents out of breath. While protecting Charles, he also apologized and let Charles know...... It was actually the people of the Brotherhood who he offended.
Now Charles hasn't figured out the matter of the Brotherhood, and the Gaze Abyss has come to the door again.
Alas...... What should come will always come, and you can't hide from it.
Charles showed the postcard to Jessica and said, "I'm going to see this guy named Duncan first, and see what I want to do staring into the abyss?" ”
After Jessica read the words on the postcard, she said with concern: "I'll go with you, if the other party is looking for trouble, I'll shoot him." ”
At this time, Charles had already put on his coat, took out his pocket watch to check the time, and then said to Jessica: "The other party did not directly attack us, which means that they are not sure whether it is me who is informant." This is just a tentative questioning, and I can go myself. If you go along...... I'm afraid that the other party will see something. ”
Jessica knew that she was a person who showed her thoughts on her face, and she followed Sir Charles to meet Duncan, and maybe she was caught in the truth. However, she was not worried that Charles would meet a dangerous enemy alone, and she said, "I will hide on the side and give you support." If the other party attacks you, with me and Cindy, they will definitely be able to rescue you. ”
Sir Charles had already taken up his top hat and put it on his head, and he said, "You are right...... We need to have an evacuation plan. I'll go first, and then you'll follow.
Be careful, the other party is definitely not coming alone, don't be discovered. ”
"Don't worry, Sir!" Jessica picked up Charles's special sniper rifle for her, carried it on her shoulder and said, "As long as this Duncan dares to do dangerous things, I will blow his head off." ”
Sir Charles gave a rare smile at the strange combination of Jessica and the sniper rifle, then pushed the door open and walked out into the street.
Jessica carries her sniper rifle to the lab behind her and takes to the skies in a saucer.
Duncan ordered a cup of coffee in a café and sat there.
After investigating and following Charles, he now has a great deal of certainty that Charles was once a cultist who stared into the abyss. When staring into the abyss and encountering the encirclement and suppression of the Supreme Sect had to withdraw from the Continent of Order, he and some of the disciples did not leave, but lurked.
This time, Speaker Peters asked Gaze into the Abyss to assassinate Young Master Liang, and Duncan, who didn't want to be trapped, decided to meet Charles. Although he didn't know that Charles had invested in Young Master Liang's "Energy News", the fact that Charles cooperated with the Wharf School of Magic to establish several research institutes appeared in major newspapers.
The "University Alliance" led by the Wharf Magic Academy can be said to be in the limelight, and the people who follow Charles report that he is now often in and out of the Wharf Magic Academy to meet with Young Master Liang and attend some publicity activities of the "University Alliance".
Charles had a chance to get close to Master Liang.
A few days ago, when he was attacked by a group of killers, he showed his ability to cast spells, which also gave him the strength to kill Young Master Liang, who had just begun to learn magic, under heavy protection.
In Duncan's eyes, there was no one better suited for the task than Charles. He was also not worried that Charles would not accept the assignment...... Assassinate Young Master Liang, as long as he is lucky, he may not die; And if the Holy See knew that he was once a disciple staring into the abyss, he would definitely die.
This task, he had to take on.
