"No one has the right to judge souls."

"Yes, the real one. And Naga Kapoulos has the right to judge. There was something in the snake caller's words, reminding Aloy that she was biased.

Aloy passed between the two Saint Clerks, who seemed to grow shorter in an instant. Even by the standards of the islanders, this true man is still tall.

She has always been taller than the people around her, even more than the burliest northerners. From a very young age, she knew she was different, always feeling like she was going to accidentally bump into someone, but she finally understood. When I walk, they should learn not to get in my way.

She took the "Divine Message" off the shelf. The golden statue was slightly larger than a wine barrel, but many times heavier.

Her fingers felt a cold, piercing metallic texture. The idol was placed next to a raging fire, the flames lit up the room, but the "gods" were always cold and wet to the touch.

Aloy slung the heavy idol on his shoulders with ease. For more than a decade, the real man had never been more than two steps away from the idol.

"I haven't forgotten my duty," Aloy said as he walked downstairs. "We will not retreat to Bajou. I'm here to stop Soul Eclipse. ”

The High Priest had done little but complained since he had left Bajou. But her complaints are not unfounded.

When Planck's ship exploded, Aloy's heart shook violently. The two of them had fallen in love with each other many years ago, and they had ended their relationship many years ago...... But some of the feelings linger all the time. She used to love him...... Idiot, old bastard.

The temple's walls are made of interlaced stones shaped like the mouth and teeth of a deep sea troll. The entrance to the temple hangs high above the bay and offers a bird's-eye view of the azure waters.

Aloy strode down the stairs to the main entrance. She felt she had to slap Planck in the face first; Because he was always overly arrogant and drunk. Either way, it's always a good thing to meet him.

However, the roaring creature at the entrance to the temple was something she didn't expect. She knew he was hurt, but she didn't know it was like this. He was lame and did not dare to stand up straight due to broken ribs. One arm was nothing but mutilated flesh, waving in vain.

With a pistol in his other hand, he tried like a frenzy to force the monks and priestesses back into the house, completely oblivious to the life-saving grace of the group that had fished him ashore just a few hours earlier. What's even more frustrating is that his pistol is obviously not loaded, and it can't hurt anyone at all.

"Where's Aloy?" He yelled.

"I'm here, Planck," she replied. "You look like a piece of."

Before he could finish speaking, he fell to his knees.

"It's Miss Doom. It had to be her. colluded with those two bitches to raise them. They sank my ship. ”

"I don't care about your ship." She said.

"You always told me to keep going and get back to sea. I need a boat. ”

"All you need is a canoe to get out to sea."

"This is Lao Tzu's city!" He screamed.

The monks and priestesses beside Planck were startled by his sudden outburst. They were amazed at Planck's stupidity, the temple was thousands of years before his city, and it would be unwise to be wild here.

And yet, as a layman, she actually shouted at the Truly One who had been blessed three times, and it was in her own temple? If it were anyone else, he would have been thrown into the sea with his knees smashed long ago.

"This is Lao Tzu's city!" He roared again. Angry spit followed.

"And what do you want?" Aloy said.

"I, I need Okhao and the other leaders to support me. They listen to your ...... As long as you open your mouth. As long as you ask, they will help me. He bowed his head in front of her.

"What do you want?" Aloy raised his voice and asked again.

"What can I do?" He said desperately. "She robbed my boat, she killed my people, she broke my arm. The rest of my stuff is on the way here. ”

"Stand down." Aloy ordered the other priests as he walked towards the main entrance. She looked down at Planck. The last time I saw him was ten years ago; Years of alcoholism and scheming have robbed him of his once sassy and heroic appearance.

"I only want this city, but if you don't support me......" he said and fell silent as his gaze met Aloy's gaze.

Aloy's eyes glared hard, as resolute and ruthless as a mother snake. She didn't give Planck anything. The priests of Naga Capolos could not show any mercy or sympathy

Even if it would make her heart ache to do so. In desperation, the captain's gaze fled to the side.

"I can do it," Aloy said, "and if I open my mouth, the gangs and the Okau people will join you." But why would I do that? ”

"Give me a hand,! You owe me. "He suddenly lost his temper like a child." I, owed, you, of? Aloy asked rhetorically, word for word.

"I've been following the ritual. The sacrifice never stopped. Planck snarled.

"But apparently you didn't learn your lesson. Rite? Sacrifice? These are trivial matters between the weak man and the weak God. My God wants action. Aloy said.

"I have suffered for this city, I have shed blood for this city. It should be mine! ”

Aloy knew what he had to do. She knew it before Planck even spoke. She knew it years ago.

Planck has lost his way. For such a long time, the hatred and grief deeply imprinted in his heart by his father's cruelty continued to ferment and worsen.

Aloy had forgotten her duty because she loved him at the time, and because she had allowed him to go astray when she left him. He was content to kill, rob, and be a true pirate, but he never aspired to reach the heights of his father's king of pirates.

After they broke up, his goal was to become the master of Bilgewater, and he made a bloody storm for it.

Planck, who calls himself the Scourge of the Seas, as a notorious pirate leader, has always considered himself the leader of Bilgewater, and the whole of Bilgewater should listen to him, and in fact it is true, Planck's strength has spread to almost the entire Bilgewater Harbor.

Any passing ship was afraid of encountering this cruel pirate captain who loved gold and treasure in his life, and everyone spat on this pirate in their hearts, but deep down, there was more fear.
