Chapter 55: One Eye
One Eye used to be an officer of the Naga Royal Forbidden Army, but because he drank a few more glasses at night and lost his honor in front of the palace, he was taken away from all official positions and titles and became a tabula rasa.
Originally, this was nothing, even if one eye was strong and strong, even if he couldn't be a royal forbidden army, he could always eat. But one eye is narrow-minded and thinks that his squadron leader is deliberately against him, so he kills him in a fit of rage, and then is wanted by the Naga royal family all over the world like a hornet's nest.
Helpless, he had no choice but to scratch his face, swallow the coals to change his voice, and even stabbed himself in one eye too much.
So from that time on, there was one less Naga former officer wanted criminal, and one more eye that crossed the world.
Because he is a halfway monk, he is also a former forbidden army officer. In fact, he looked down on pirates in his heart, and he thought that this was just a temporary shelter for him, and he had a bigger future.
And opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, and one eye has finally waited for so many years.
He took out a golden pearl from his magic pocket and looked at it with one eye in confusion. It is as if the whole mind is immersed in it, which is also the preciousness of this golden pearl, which is known as the pearl of the Siren.
Just such a gold bead with enchanting magic power is more than enough to buy a small town in the Far East, and the magic pocket of one eye has a whole box of such gold beads.
Even the well-informed Naga royal family may not have seen so many gold beads put together, and when the time comes, I am afraid that I will not be able to revoke my wanted notice.
Maybe he will give himself the title of baron when the time comes, and come to calm his heart!
"Who!" One eye shouted while his right hand shook slightly, and a sinister throwing knife was quietly thrown out.
If someone thinks that one eye is not attacking, let the movement slow down a little will naturally kill you!
"Oh, boss, it's me!" A fat fish-man rolled in like a ball of meat.
This is the cook on the Seawolf, Fishman Sauce Rice.
Only someone like them, who is familiar with the one-eye attack, can dodge this insidious knife attack.
"Ju Rice, are you itchy skin? Dare to eavesdrop outside the door! "If you pick up a knife in one eye, you will cut it.
"Wronged, boss! I'm here to ask you out for dinner! The fathead fish hurriedly begged for mercy.
"Hehe, I'm going to drink fish head soup today!" One eye didn't hear at all. These pirates are all bad maggots, good people and good things don't have their share, and bad things with bad ass will never be missing their kicks.
Let's just say that this fathead fish looks loyal and honest, but when the Seawolf was trapped in the ice field, he was the first to kill people and cook soup.
So this dead cook must have done it on purpose if he dared to eavesdrop outside the door, and he wouldn't be soft on one eye.
"Haha, juichan, tell you to bring a bowl of soup to the boss first, and now you are beaten by the boss!"
Just as One Eye was about to chop off the head of the cunning fathead fish, a large hand reached out from outside the cabin and rescued him.
"Sha Kun, you're looking for death!" One eye was utterly angry. When did you start to have such a low prestige? Anyone can reach out!
A knife flew towards the fishman chef sauce, and with his right hand, he grabbed the trident in his hand and stabbed the shark man's first mate Sha Kun in the chest.
Sha Kun, who was pretending to be calm just now, changed his face greatly, and he didn't dare to take out the double knife behind his back, which was able to block his chest before the trident stabbed him in the heart.
"Bell!" With a crisp sound of metal, Sha Kun was directly hit on the cabin by the huge force transmitted from Trident Mountain, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood in his mouth.
And One Eye took advantage of the victory to chase after Shakun and cut Shakun under the halberd.
"Enough!" With a loud shout, Sha Kun and One Eye were shocked back by the voice.
One eye was better and barely able to stand, but Sha Kun had already been hit hard and fainted directly by the sonic attack.
One eye secretly said unfortunately, this was the best chance to kill Sha Kun. Who doesn't know that Sha Kun has always coveted his position as captain, if he hadn't slipped and didn't let go, he would have killed him a long time ago.
It's a pity that when the priest of the goddess of the sea arrives, he can't kill him by force. Otherwise, if it is considered disrespectful to the goddess, I don't want to taste the taste of being drowned alive in the water in the alveoli in the middle of the night.
"Zod, have you forgotten the High Priest's order!"
"Don't dare!" One eye half-bent over his head bowed. It's been a long time since he's heard the name "Zod", and they're more used to calling themselves "Boss" or "One Eye".
Nebal, shrouded in a black burqa, watched Zod's submissiveness before crouching down and stretching out his blue-scaled hand and pulling out the sharp knife stuck in the stomach of the rice. Just now, this unlucky fathead fish still did not dodge the attack, but fortunately it was not stuck in the head and killed him instantly.
From his vision, he saw three withered, slender fingers poking out of his cloak, and looking down the fingers, a bracelet made of the bones of the drowned man's hand was faintly visible with three marks. Three fingers lightly rested on the end of the handle, and with a slight lift, the sharp knife stuck in the belly of the rice was lightly dismissed by Barnier.
After pulling out the blade, a stream of blood flew out, some of which splashed on Barnier's face, but instead of being annoyed by the filth of the clergy, he stretched out his slender tongue and licked the blood on his face.
Because of the angle, he could see it clearly, and his expression was the same as when he treated those poor "ingredients". He reluctantly moved his head to look to the other side, which was indeed a difficult maneuver for a fish-headed man without a neck.
Although he pretended to be calm, his body unconsciously swayed.
"Hehe, don't be nervous little guy, it'll be fine soon!" Barnier's hoarse voice rang in his ears.
As the cold claw reached his shoulder, a cold chill that seemed to imprison his soul suddenly spread into the juice and rice, making his entire body seem to be frozen. But he himself could not speak, nor could he move his hands.
But in the eyes of others, after Barnier pulled out the knife, he raised his hand and used a [Healing Serious Injuries] magic technique to instantly heal the wounds on Ju Fan's body, which was extremely accomplished and could be called a miracle.
Ordinary priests who perform this magic spell can at most stop the bleeding of the wound, and like Barnier, they will directly recover as if nothing had happened.
Zod knew that this was another silent warning from Barnier, who had a more comprehensive fighting style than the warlord, and now that he showed his hand, it seemed that Barnier's strength would have to be reassessed.
"Zod, how's the preparation?" It wasn't until all the irrelevant people had left the room that Barnier asked what he was here for.
"All set, Sacrifice Lord! As long as the people of the Emerald City dare to come out, I can call them to come and go! ”
"Don't call me a priest, I'm just a third-level priest."
"Yes!" One eye was in response to the heart, but the stomach was slandering, and I don't know who heard the words "Lord Priest", and their bones were a little lighter, and even walking became brisk.
"I don't care about your own little calculations, but the High Priest's task must be completed without compromise! Do you understand?! ”
"Of course, for the glory of my lord!"
"For the glory of our lord!"
Back in his room, Barnier finally took off his heavy cloak. Under the cloak is a gloomy man covered in blue scales. Except for the lack of hair on the top of his head, he only has more blue scales than normal people. When he was a child, he was oppressed because of this scale, but when he grew up, he survived the "drowning" ritual of the goddess of the sea because of this half-human and half-fish hybrid, and mixed into the current middle position, which has to be said to make people.
However, perhaps due to the influence of childhood, he did not want to show his mixed appearance too much, so he wore a cloak all year round, but after he found that this kind of clothing could hide his emotions and bring more majesty and crushing to his subordinates, he could not take it off again.
Zod's private offering of the Lady of Fortune was seen by him as a foolish act tantamount to suicide. Do you really think that ordinary magical space equipment can isolate the glances of the gods?
"You're killing yourself!" Barnier makes a note for Zod.
Even if he hadn't died at the hands of the Lords of the Emerald City, he believed that the employer behind him would not let him go afterwards.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at his waist, where there was also an inconspicuous space pocket. There is also a more precious tribute than the box of Siren Pearls, one of the four materials of the plane, which can increase the essentia soil of half the plane area.
This is why the high priest was willing to get involved in this level of strife. This kind of dimensional material is an excellent sacrifice to the goddess of the sea, and only those power organizations that have a huge influence on the land can collect it, so it is rare and expensive for the goddess, and it is natural to love this kind of sacrifice. Judging from the records of previous years, adding essentia soil as a sacrifice will increase the blessing effect by at least 10%.
They promised the High Priest that if this was done, not only would all the essentia land on the sacrificial fleet be owned by the High Priest, but they would also open a fixed trading channel to exchange a large amount of essentia land every year. Because of this, as a subordinate who has recently gained the trust of the Great Priest, he has come to this strange sea area thousands of miles away.
This magical pocket blessed by the divine power of the goddess can be insulated from the detection of the gods, and only then can the sacrifice truly become its own thing, oh no, it is the high priest's thing.
"When I go back this time, the position should be moved!" The official sacrifice Barnier did not dare to ask for extravagance, and a quasi-sacrificial position should always be given to himself, so that he was not far from his goal.
In fact, this time the employer hired many other pirates to carry out the plan together, but this one-eyed sea wolf is the most famous.
In addition to the strength of the one-eyed high-level warriors, the most important thing is that the Seawolf is a magical ship that can dive below the surface of the water to avoid attacks or ambush in predetermined waters to suddenly attack.
The sneak attack on the convoy carrying the Lady of Fortune's sacrifice was to use the Seawolf to secretly follow underwater, and then suddenly rise to the surface and use the ramming horn to pierce the ship carrying the tribute and then open up.
The rest of the pirates are not weak, otherwise they would not have been hired by their employers to block the Emerald City's ocean routes. You must know that in this era, those who dare to sail on the ocean are rich and powerful forces, and the artillery brought down from the armed ships may be stronger than the navy of their own country. Unlike the petty merchants who only dare to toss in the coastal waters, these are legal pirates with two flags on board.
Of course, this kind of armed merchant is only a guest appearance of a pirate in his spare time, although ordinary pirates can't bite them, but if they are against the long-established pirates such as ghost women and dragon turtles, they can only sink to the bottom of the sea.
The employer behind it is also really ruthless, for fear that the Emerald City will not be able to defend the turtle. Directly cut off your lifeline and see if you can come out.
Pirates are always a little timid in the face of the regular army, although the coast guard of the Emerald City is a fish belly, but the warships of the Waujin Chamber of Commerce are famous, otherwise why do you think there are no pirates within two hundred nautical miles around the Emerald City, it is not a rule to kill.
But these greedy people who only value goods have been blinded by the huge wealth of the past few days, not only do they not look worried, but they even have a plan to destroy all the garrisons of the Emerald City and sack the Emerald City in a battle. It has to be said that in the face of great wealth, there is no such thing as reason.
Fortunately, I have long dedicated my faith to the goddess of the sea, so that I can stay awake in this frenetic atmosphere.
"Praise be to my lord!"
