In the evening.

Sauron left the hotel with little Vivien in his arms, because the last show of force had unintentionally respected him a lot. The other party also put away his excessive curiosity, and never asked Vivian why she was asleep, assassins are people full of secrets, people shouldn't know too many secrets, the more you know, the easier it is to be killed. It was as if the Naga priest had known for a long time that Sauron had accompanied a sleeping little girl, but she had never spoken out about it.

Secrets don't always bring benefits, but they can easily lead to danger.

Especially an assassin's secret!

………………

Since he decided to go to sea, Sauron naturally couldn't leave Vivian in the hotel, and he didn't worry about the group of Amazon women. So he was going to transfer Vivien to the Ocean Temple, which controlled nearly half of the temple area, and it was very easy to find a place to settle Vivian. The little girl didn't know how long she would be asleep, and Sauron felt that Vivien's awakening should be directly related to her own fusion of fear divinity, and the last time she woke up was almost after Sauron completed the devouring of divinity.

An old house outside the Temple of the Sea.

Sauron gently placed Vivien on the bed, then stretched out his hand to grasp her small hand, and said in a low voice: "Control your divine power as much as possible, and don't lightly reveal the identity of the god son of fear." ”

"I'll be back soon, it won't take long for you to wake up."

"I promise!"

Although Vivien showed no signs of waking up from beginning to end, Sauron could feel that she still had a sense of the outside world, which meant that Vivien could hear him, otherwise there was no way to explain why as soon as he left the little girl, he automatically opened the divine power protection, and quickly withdrew the energy protection force field after Sauron returned. Her strength was still in her body, but her consciousness seemed to have fallen into a deep slumber for some reason, and there was no sign of waking up.

Sauron picked up a soft plush quilt and placed it over Vivien's body, then lay down next to her.

I'm going to sea tomorrow. He needs a good rest.

Temple of the Sea.

The figure of the Naga priest stood in front of a blue sea with an underground sea under the sea temple, from which he could directly enter the sea. The sea rippled slightly, and then a long, narrow creature that looked a bit like a giant sea serpent appeared, and it swam in front of the Naga priest little by little, and then slowly stood up and came to the high platform under the sea temple. At this time, its appearance became clear, but it was a strong and hideous male Naga guard.

Its tail was longer by the Naga priest, its thick arms held a trident, and its face showed little humanoid. It is not like the female Nagana, and there is more or less the contour of a woman's face. The length of the Naga guard reached six or seven meters, and after standing upright, it was nearly two meters and four meters high, and the muscles of the whole body were very developed, looking full of oppressive force, it leaned over slightly and said, "Your Excellency Priest." ”

"A summons have been sent to the Naga community in the nearby seas, and they will soon send warriors to respond."

The Naga priest nodded slightly, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Very good." Dedanas. It's up to you to command the summoned warriors, and we must take the treasure this time. The Storm Temple seems to be moving as well. This wealth cannot fall into their hands, as that will only increase the power of our enemies. ”

"The Lord of the Storm has always coveted the great goddess of the sea, and has tried in vain to get his hands on the realm of the sea."

The male Naga nodded and said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency Priest." I don't understand why you're leaving the Dead Whisperer in command from that human. Although he is a powerful guy, there is only one person after all. Besides, he came from an unknown source, and we can't fully trust him. ”

The Naga priest looked at it with a frown, his expression becoming a little strange. It seemed to be a cruel smile, and he said coldly: "Are you questioning my decision?" Dedanas. Don't use your stupid head to try to guess my decision. That human was an assassin close to the Legendary Realm, and such a person would not be much weaker than a Legendary Professional in combat. He has value that we can use to win over. Besides, after I came into contact with the energy-absorbing method on his body, I felt that he had the aura of the legendary realm in him. ”

"He should have mastered a little bit of Legendary Rank ability, presumably he is not far from advancing to the Legendary Assassin!"

"In the past two or three hundred years, there have been very few Legendary-level assassins, and if he can be loyal to the Ocean Temple, our enemies will all wake up from their nightmares."

Legendary Assassin.

If it were used to assassinate members of a hostile force, it would be a complete nightmare.

As if seeing the sight of Sauron turning into a sharp blade to sweep away dissidents for her, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile, and she said slowly, "As for loyalty? There is no such thing as absolute loyalty in this world! As long as we can give him what he wants, he can serve us! This man has a lot of secrets, and he definitely wants something from us. Besides, he seems to have brought a sleeping little girl, and although I did not try to test his secret, I could see that he cared about this little girl very much, and the relationship between the two was very close. He had been hit by energy absorption, and that little girl probably had some weird spell too. ”

"That little girl can also be our tool when necessary, and he probably doesn't want any accidents to happen to that little girl, right?"

"As long as he has weaknesses, we can control him."

The Naga priest showed a cruel smile, glanced at the male Naga guard in front of him, and ordered, "There are some things that you don't need to ask about, now go and send out the shark people scouts to find the traces of those traitors." We have to find those guys first, or else these riches may attract more contenders! ”

The male Naga guard leaned over slightly, and then the whole person dived into the water.

The Naga priestess returned to the back of the Ocean Temple, she swam to a pool of water, and with a gentle incantation, the water rippled in front of her, and gradually appeared Sauron, and next to him was Vivien, who was still asleep. A strange glint appeared in the Naga priest's eyes and muttered, "Who are they?" That little girl seems to be a natural warlock? A lot of powerful guys have popped up recently, and it seems that a group of adventurers have returned from the abyss? The goddess of the sea has stopped answering my prayers recently, is there something big about happening? ”

"Looks like I'm speeding up my preparations! ……”

The Naga priest slowly closed his eyes. Immediately, the whole body sank into the sea.

Although the priests of the goddess of the sea have a lot of power, they cannot directly mobilize the sea race, because the secular and theocracy maintain relative boundaries, and the kingdom of sea creatures is also a bit similar to the human kingdom, and few temples will directly interfere in the internal affairs of the kingdom, because the kingdom is a very short-lived thing, but the gods have eternal life, and they do not want to be affected by the kingdom that rises and falls over hundreds of years. The Naga priest was able to mobilize the Naga Sea clan in the nearby seas, and I am afraid that her status in the world is not low.

It may be a royal family within the Naga clan, and the members of the Naga royal clan do not have the right to inherit. He often became a priest serving the goddess of the sea.

………………

The sea is surrounded by a mist.

Sauron's figure appeared three hundred meters below the sea, and he stood on the deck of the Dead Whisperer, staring at the underwater world in front of him.

The ocean submerged him, but it didn't affect him in the slightest, because he wore an emblem on his chest that allowed him to breathe easily at the bottom of the sea. The deck of the Dead Whisperer is filled with drowning sailors, the Naga Banshee roams the hull, and the Shark-Man Undead patrol the ship, a ghost ship with a large number of bound spirits. They were the souls who died directly or indirectly near the ghost ship, unable to participate in the battle, but were forcibly sucked into the ship's mast and sails, and the ghost ship was powered by these binding spirits.

There are eight or nine hundred of them.

The true fighting power is the undrowned undead, the Naga Banshee, the Wraith, and the Shark Man undead.

Sauron silently calculated the distance in the sea. As well as the distance they sailed, the ghost ship was not suitable for exposure to the eyes of ordinary people, so the Dead Whisperer left the shallow sea area from the bottom of the sea.

"Rise."

Sauron frowned and looked at the fish around him, because of the breath of death on the Dead Whisperer. When the fish met them, they scattered and fled in all directions. With Sauron's orders, the non-drowning sailors began to control the ghost ship to ascend. A little light appeared in front of the eyes as it slowly ascended, and then the azure water appeared overhead, and the Dead Whisperer rushed straight out of the ocean floor with a loud rumbling sound.

Sauron looked around and said in a deep voice, "Summon the mist." Don't let anyone else see us. ”

A gray mist filled the air.

Within a radius of several hundred meters around the Dead Whisperer, everything was shrouded in a fog, which was a natural ability of the ghost ships, and the sea area in which they appeared was often shrouded in fog. The fog on the sea today is not small, as the fog of the ghost ship spreads, the nearby qiē has become hazy, and the hull of the ship is silently sailing on the sea, and the ghost ghosts do not like to be directly exposed to the sun. These undead sailors are indeed very powerful, but unfortunately their weaknesses are too obvious.

"Captain."

A half-imaginary, half-real Naga Banshee came to Sauron's front and said in a sharp voice, "The breath of a living person has been found nearby. ”

It was the first Naga Banshee to be seen, a separate undead creature that was not tied to a ghost ship.

Living?

Met someone else so quickly?

Sauron frowned and came to the helmsman's position, then took out the binoculars to observe, and could vaguely see a large ship in the sea near an island, and from a distance you could see the sign on the flagpole, which was a hollow skull, with swords interlaced underneath, this is the most commonly used pirate symbol, if it is not to join the special forces in the pirates, ordinary pirates use such symbols. You have to make your name for using a special pirate flag, or you may be attacked by other pirates because you don't fly the flag correctly.

It's an unspoken rule.

It may seem inconsequential, but it's about life.

In the Central Plains, there is a custom of dragon boat racing, and the flag is generally hung on the dragon boat, and this flag cannot be hung indiscriminately, and it may attract others to come and pull out the flag. In many local flags, the black flag belongs to a taboo, and there have been local dragon boats that have been killed and injured because of the black flag, and finally the dragon boat has been blocked for many years. Later, when the dragon boat was driven again, all the same flags were issued, and whoever dared to hang the black flag came out, and the armed police force personally sent people to pull out the flag, just for fear that they would finally come out and kill people.

Naturally, there are no such things in this world.

However, the rules of the flag are very big on the sea, whether it is pirates, chambers of commerce, gangs, etc. Hanging the flag is a very strict thing. The rules here are piled up one by one, and in Sauron's memory, there are people who have hung flags indiscriminately, and in the end, the entire guild has been killed by pirates, and even the land stations have been kicked off overnight, and there is almost no way to survive.

That guy is also dead, and he actually hangs a banner similar to the Pirate King!

From this point of view, the dangerous people in this world who are begging for a living on land, sea, and rivers are really a bit like bandits in the green forest.

There are some rules that cannot be touched.

If you hang flags in the pirates, it's the same as messing around with the emblem of the temple, I don't know how big your fortune is, and it's normal to know that you have cramps and peels.

………………

Looks like just ordinary pirates?

Sauron frowned and pondered. Then he shouted: "Get ready to fight!" ”

The pirate ship in front of you should be an ordinary pirate begging for a living on the sea, and those who make names have their own flags, and few people will disguise themselves on them. If it is really a famous pirate, it must be hung out as much as possible, because this can avoid a lot of trouble, and even some special flags are extraordinary items, and even the sea monsters will not attack lightly after hanging out.

Sauron once took on the task of sacrificing a flag.

However, the place is not the South Coast, and the target of the Banner is a legendary-level sea beast. 【Sacrificial Battle Banner】

"Captain?"

The Naga Banshee came to Sauron and said in a shrill voice, "The other party doesn't seem to be our target? Do you want to attack them? ”

Sauron looked at her with a frown. Then he nodded and said, "Yes." We need to conduct a combat test. ”

"Forget it."

"Prepare for battle, and I'll deal with them personally. You are responsible for covering me, and you are ready to board the ship for battle. ”

Sauron had the heart to train with them, for he hadn't experienced a naval battle in a long time.

Fighting is not just a matter of slashing people with a knife. Different environments and different fighting styles, these need to be known by yourself. You fight on the sea, on the hull of a ship, it's completely different from when you fight on land. There is not much to say about underwater battles, just the battle on the hull is not simple, because the hull will shake. The combat environment is also much narrower, and if you are not careful, you may capsize in the gutter.

There were a lot of people who died on this because of carelessness back then!

Sauron was a very cautious man, and he didn't want to die an unexplained death because he didn't fit for hull combat.

Moreover, he also needs to test his combat skills.

Back then, he could run on the water during naval battles, and he was almost a quasi-legendary-level combat power, but now he doesn't have so much expertise to support, and his fighting style has also changed a lot.

Sonorous!

Sauron looked at the undead around him, frowned slightly, and then ordered in a deep voice: "Bring the ship over, don't get too close, get my signal and come again." ”

Thump!

Sauron jumped straight into the water, leaving the Naga Banshee, who was a little stunned in place.

- "Flying! ”

- "Advanced stealth!" ”

After pulling enough distance, a gleam appeared in Sauron's eyes, and he began to cast spells in succession, testing his combat effectiveness on the sea.

Start calculating the time.

Sauron's brain began to work like a sophisticated instrument, and under the cover of the mist, his figure flew straight out of the sea. The High Invisibility Technique was blessed on his body, and Sauron disappeared directly into the air, leaving no trace in place. With a simple trick, Sauron's soaked clothes dried, and he began to move closer to the pirate ship's location. Sauron flew at an altitude of about a hundred meters, and his speed was not very fast, and with the blessing of advanced stealth techniques, he could not see any trace at all.

Because he's flying stealth now!

Without enough expertise to support him, Sauron was not able to cast spells in combat while flying, as his main focus was on maintaining his flying skills.

There wasn't a lot of time.

Both flight and advanced stealth are calculated on a per-minute basis.

Sauron must pursue the maximum results for the time that the spell lasts!

Little by little, the distance is getting closer.

A qiē on the pirate ship came into Sauron's field of vision, and he saw twenty or thirty pirate sailors on the deck, the lookout on the mast, the helmsman in charge of steering the ship, and so on. The strength of these pirates is not very weak, they are stronger than many city guards, and they belong to the second order or so, but most of them are warriors, because of their pirate career, they prefer the fighting style of wandering swordsmen. All bandit enemies. The combat power of the pirates is the strongest, completely surpassing the bandits, only the desert horse thieves can be compared slightly.

A minute passed.

Sauron's figure began to decline, and he entered a stealth state, but it was the advanced invisibility that maintained his invisibility.

The distance gradually decreases.

Sauron stayed at a height of about ten meters on the pirate ship, and the light passed through his body, and it was only possible to see something slightly different unless he was staring at his position closely. The enemy in front of him was already clear, and the powerful pirate was bored on the deck, and the anchor seemed to be dropped. These people seem to be waiting for something. Sauron continued to lower his altitude, then landed gently in an unoccupied corner of the ship's bow.

Five meters in front of him was a drinking pirate, but unfortunately the other party didn't notice it in the slightest.

"Kill the important target first!"

Sauron glanced at the enemy in front of him, and finally locked onto a one-eyed dragon that appeared to be the vice-captain, and he quietly dived over it, then stabbed his scimitar out of the back.

Poof!

A splatter of blood, the one-eyed dragon who was shouting at his men looked at his chest in disbelief, his heart had been pierced. This third-order pirate was killed on the spot.

"Enemy!? ……”

A large group of pirates panicked, followed by the sound of swords drawn.

They couldn't see anything in front of them, except for a scimitar popping out of the cyclops' chest, and the scimitar was pulled out. Then the qiē in front of me was still empty.

Sauron shook off the blood from his sword, revealing a slight trace at the moment of attack, and then disappeared into thin air again.

This is the advanced invisibility technique.

When he is blessed with advanced invisibility, attacking enemies will not remove invisibility.

Poof!

A human head was cut off by Sauron. A certain bearded pirate heard the sound of a knife whistling, but he couldn't see any sign of the sword, he could clearly hear the wind. Sensing the slight outline of the enemy's movement in front of him, but he couldn't see the direction in which the scimitar was coming, he could only block it indiscriminately, and then the next moment his head was cut off.

Three throwing knives shoot out.

The moment the flying knife broke out of Sauron's palm, the traces were revealed, but unfortunately the enemy had no time to dodge.

Plop, plop, plop.

Lines of blood appeared, and Sauron entered and exited as if no one was there, and in the blink of an eye, five people were killed by him, and the enemy could not even judge the location of his attack, only to feel a vague and hazy trajectory moving around them at high speed. This fear made their morale extremely low, and some people even completely frightened as if they had seen a ghost, and some even threw their weapons outright.

Bang Bang Bang!

Sauron swung his knife against the thrown weapon, revealing his approximate position.

He jumped sharply, directly to a height of five or six meters, and the sturdy cable connecting the mast sank a lot, and on the cable you could see the outline of the palm of your hand, but you could not see the figure of a person. Sauron flew through the air, holding a scimitar in each hand and slashing at each other, slashing five people in a row in a large splatter of blood.

Huge streams of blood poured out.

Bloody footprints were only revealed on the ground at this time, and Sauron's figure was still very hazy, and the blood stains on his body were also covered by advanced stealth techniques, but he was now moved by the vague silhouette that the enemy could judge.

It's a pity that they found out too late.

Three minutes passed, and Sauron's figure stood in the blood on the ground, surrounded by more than twenty corpses. There was a series of footprints on the ground, but he was still invisible.

The advanced stealth technique lasts for about six minutes!

Sauron shook off the blood from the sword, then glanced at the cabin with a blank face, grabbed a corpse and smashed it in, then slashed through the invisible cold light, cutting the two enemies guarding the back of the cabin in half.

Blood covered his clothes.

The effect of the advanced stealth technique seems to have been weakened considerably, and Sauron's figure gradually becomes more translucent and hazy.

It seems that the effect of the spell has weakened a bit.

However, this was less important to Sauron, as he found himself in what appeared to be the ability of one man to kill all the pirates on the ship head-on.
