Chapter 13: The Knife of the Wind and Snow Moon (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
"Since the ghost fleet is so powerful... How strong does the world government have to be to destroy such a powerful fleet..."
Raymond swallowed.
He hadn't forgotten that he had inherited an ultimate mission.
Hostile to the camp of the Twelve Magi, hostile to the entire world government...
It seems like...
Seem...
Probably...
Took on an impossible task yourself?
Erin on the side obviously didn't know the origin of this mysterious fleet that suddenly appeared, and her eyes were full of shock.
After being stunned for a moment, she also recovered from the shock, covered her mouth and exclaimed, "What was that just now?" ”
Raymond's eyes were far away, and he said lightly: "Ghost fleet!" ”
Erin seemed to have heard of it, and was surprised: "The ghost fleet of 'Sea Emperor' Deloth? ”
"Hmm!"
"I didn't expect the legend to be true! May the Heroic Soul live forever..."
Erin's tone was a little strange, and there seemed to be some inexplicable emotions hidden in her eyes.
Raymond suddenly had a doubt in his heart, the Great Voyage World is so big, why did this ghost ship island happen to appear in the Black Sea?
Could it be that there is some special hidden plot?
......
And at the same time, on the Hux Vulture.
Raymond they had just walked on their front feet for a short time,
A man wearing an eight-hole blue steel mask suddenly appeared in the bedroom of the regimental commander, Jeff.
He spoke with a strange grin, his voice as harsh as the friction of steel,
"I thought I'd be done here, and I'll come to you in a day... I didn't expect you to come here on your own initiative. ”
"You... How did you end up here? ”
A flash of horror flashed across Jeff's face, and he naturally recognized this "employer".
He instantly decided that this was a transcendent being, and the sequence was not low.
Since he was able to appear in his bedroom so quietly, it didn't seem difficult to kill himself.
I thought that changing course would avoid him, but I didn't expect to hit him squarely.
The masked man was not interested in being verbose, and said straight to the point: "What do I want?" ”
"I've already got it, and my first mate keeps the notebook... But when he was doing experiments before, there was an explosion, and people died, notes... The notebook is also gone. ”
After Jeff said this, he suddenly felt that the air around him wanted to freeze, and the huge pressure made it difficult for him to breathe.
He is an extraordinary person with the top strength of Sequence 7, why is he so unbearable to face this person?
He finally understood,
This is the absolute coercion brought by the rank gap!
The masked man in front of him only leaked a trace of breath, which made him unable to resist at all.
Then the transcendent sequence level of this masked man may exceed himself too much.
"Take me to the lab."
After a moment of silence, the iron-masked man restrained his murderous aura, and his tone was still indifferent and unfluctuating.
This group of pirates changed course without authorization, and it was obvious that there was something wrong with them.
But he wasn't interested in pursuing it, just a bunch of ants that could be killed at will.
It was imperative that he find the "forbidden object".
If it weren't for the jealousy of that guy in Philip's territory, he would have gone on his own, and he wouldn't have had to bother hiring such a weak little pirate group, and he would have caused so much trouble.
It would be terrible if these stupid pirates dropped that "forbidden object" into the sea because of the explosion or something...
......
Yuke's laboratory was in shambles due to the explosion, and the traces were already in chaos after the pirates trampled on it.
The body has been retracted, and there is no time to bury it at sea.
The Man in the Iron Mask observes all traces in the lab, and while he finds no clue to the notebook, he does find something different.
"Traces of phosphorus-rich gunpowder..."
The man in the iron mask twisted his fingers a little, and sniffed the embers of the explosion under his nose.
Then his instinct made him stare at the pipe for a long time, there were traces of people climbing, and the residue of the medicine on the pipe had been wiped by clothing.
"Where does this ventilation duct lead?"
"I don't know..."
Jeff's eyes flashed, and he replied tremblingly.
He looked at the iron-masked man's tone was wrong, and hurriedly explained: "My lord, this ship island is very old, it has been modified and renovated countless times, and the design drawings of the ventilation ducts have long been lost..."
"Climb up, follow the trails, and see where it leads."
The man in the iron mask was not interested in listening to his ramblings, and pointed to the pipe and commanded, his tone unquestionable.
Jeff listened to his cheeks, he was a pirate leader, and he actually let himself climb the pipe?
He hadn't been so humiliated since he became a pirate!
The man in the iron mask sighed softly, "What, there's a problem?" ”
"No... No, my lord. ”
Jeff only felt that the moment of hesitation just now seemed to be only a thin line away from hell.
The sense of death that shrouded his heart became stronger and stronger, as if someone was holding a sharp blade against his eyebrows.
At this point, although he was unwilling, he could only climb into the ventilation duct.
......
Half an hour later.
The Man in the Iron Mask appears in the prison cell where the three Raymonds were previously being held.
There was a corpse with a severed throat at the door, and a body shot in the head with a musket in the cell.
If Jeff hadn't followed the pipe to find this place, they might not have found out about it much later.
"Boom, depending on the situation, it should be the transcendent 'Shadow Sneaker' in Sequence 7 who saves people... But why would he go so far as to kill another person with a musket? ”
"Strange... This shadow guard obviously came in through the main entrance, and who made this passage... Why was he able to find the lab accurately? ”
The ventilation ducts are as complex as the pirate leader said, like a labyrinth.
And there are no traces of exploration in the pipe,
Obviously, the pipe climber recognized the right path at the first time and went directly to the laboratory.
The man in the iron mask glanced at the wound of the corpse at the door, and roughly concluded the strength of the person who had broken in before.
But since he can kill the doorman quietly, he naturally doesn't need to kill another minion with a musket.
The only explanation is that the man with his head shattered by the musket was killed by someone else.
"My lord, that shadow guard should be the exclusive shadow guard of Grand Duke Philip..."
At this moment, Jeff was prostrate on the ground, kneeling down to answer, covered with cold sweat.
There was no superfluous emotion on his face, only humble obedience, like a loyal old dog.
......
A quarter of an hour ago.
"Commander, it's not good, the ghost ship just now passed by and alarmed the sea kings at the bottom of the sea, and the artillery didn't repel it. I think... We're going to be sunk! ”
The movement of the ghost fleet was very loud, and those giant sea kings lurking on the bottom of the sea were not pressed and did not dare to come forward.
Now that the fleet is gone, they seem to be stimulated, and they come out of the sea to release the pressure frantically.
And what happened to appear next to the Vulture Pirate Ship Island was a giant sea king, a one-horned thunder eel.
The thunderbolt on its forehead can easily pierce the steel deck.
It's just that the length of its outcropping is more than 300 meters, and it looks down on all the pirates on the island...
With such a behemoth, even if the Hux Vulture had the ability to repel it, it would definitely be a lose-lose situation.
The sea kings in a state of rage are about to storm the ship island, and they see that it is the end of the ship's sinking and death.
Everyone was disillusioned.
But when this group of pirates was helpless,
The masked man, who was always calm, made a move.
He stepped onto the deck and glanced at the rampant thunder eel,
As if that look had magic power, this sea king with a huge body actually froze instantly,
Draw the knife and groan softly.
Like an ode to death.
"The full moon dance of the waltz."
Then, just a knife.
The gorgeous silver moon sword flashed, and the brilliance was dazzling.
Flashed away.
Before the vulture pirates could be shocked, their eyes were covered with blood.
The blood of the sea kings splashed like a scoop on the entire deck,
The massive head fell to the deck, its body sinking into the sea, its head detached.
Cut it in two.
With a long wail of despair from the Sea Kings.
Blood has infected large swaths of the sea.
At this time, this group of pirates realized that the strength of the mysterious masked man who suddenly appeared on the deck was terrifying.
......
Man in a mask with a knife, a lot of blood...
Isn't this the picture of the kid's "prophecy" before?
It turned out that the kid they used to test the medicine really awakened the ability of foresight.
Regiment Commander Jeff thought so.
