Volume 1 The Beginning of Everything Chapter 33 The Curse of the Deep Sea
When he saw that there were only three Ralphs sitting alone on the chair in the room, Liao Yu knew that the most critical test was coming.
"Third Officer, you don't look like you're going to be hurt by those strange insects."
Liao Yu said again and again, and looked at this room quickly, the whole room seemed to be the same as an ordinary cabin room, but the magic fluctuations faintly coming from all corners made Liao Yu feel a little uncomfortable.
"Some old wounds from the past, this battle is just a recurrence."
Ralph said lightly, and Boatswain Jack naturally closed the door as he entered.
"I'll give it a try."
Liao Yu sat down as usual, Ralph reached out to untie the leather armor around his waist, revealing a purple wound, and Jack Sparrow was already standing silently behind Liao Yu.
Faced with such a black and purple shiny lump, Liao Yu thought it was just a simple bruise, but when he looked closer, he immediately sighed lightly, and the purple bruises around the wound crawled in the shape of small insects, which looked creepy.
"What is this?"
"This is a wound left after being wounded by dark magic, and once the wound is cut, it will lose a lot of blood until the host dies." At this moment, it was Jack Sparrow who was standing on the sidelines.
"You should be able to tell from before I even got on the ship that I was not much better than a magic apprentice, as I said. I take the liberty of asking, with the power of the captain, it must be easy to deal with this kind of injury. Liao Yu spread out his hands and expressed his doubts directly but measuredly.
"Father...... The captain is good at the sacrificial spells worshiped by the ancestors, and cannot draw out the power of black magic, so he can only choose to neutralize it. Forcibly casting a spell on the wounded will most likely - bang! Jack spread his hands from the inside out, making an explosive pose. Of course, we're not very good at solving the problem of heavy bleeding. ”
"So you're secretly observing every priest who comes in for an interview in Port Royer, and you're also checking my magic level." Liao Yu said unhurriedly, squatting down and leaning closer to gently press the wound.
"Well, you're right, I think as one of the Nine Pirate Kings, it's a reasonable interview procedure. Well, the interview procedure that is not harmful to the employee. Jack admitted calmly that Jack was a lot relieved about Liao Yu's frank and direct style.
"What do I need to do?" Liao Yu said as he raised his head and asked the third mate how he felt.
"I'm afraid you'll need to draw out the dark magic in his body first, and then deal with the problem of blood loss."
"Draw out the dark magic, rely on these materials in this room?" Liao Yu pointed around suspiciously.
"You know?" To Liao Yu's surprise, Jack was surprised that he could perceive these magic fluctuations.
Liao Yu suddenly thought of his 17 points of spiritual power that were far beyond ordinary people, and asked cautiously in his mouth, "Is there any problem?" I had been practicing meditation for a long time before I could barely perceive these subtle fluctuations in magic. ”
"You've been so accomplished in less than a year, which is already remarkable in my opinion, much better than the few impostors I hired before." Unconsciously, Jack mentions that there were several other magician crew members from before, and at the same time walks to the corner of the room and takes out the magic materials that have been placed there.
"How do you use these?" Liao Yu didn't care about the whereabouts of the "seniors" mentioned by Jack, and if the mission failed, Hantang wouldn't be much better for him. In contrast, Jack may even be the captain he represents, and he actually judged that he had been studying magic for "less than a year", and it seems that his gradually improving mental power has indeed brought him potential but practical benefits.
"This was originally set up by you after you master another magic array, but I didn't expect you to be able to perceive these materials through the magic barrier on the Black Pearl."
Liao Yu took the red-eyed blue snail from Jack's hand, and the red patterns on it were like eyes because it gathered a large number of fire elements, which was a common type of material in magic arrays. And the string of kelp-like blue plants that Jack was carrying in his other hand, if Liao Yu remembered correctly, this was a ghost weeping vine that could only be found in the deep sea, and it had to be found near the ship's wreck, supposedly because they needed the souls of the dead to feed them.
As for the rest of the materials, most of them are in the direction of darkness and chaos, and Liao Yu is basically certain that the materials needed for another cursed magic array.
"The West also pays attention to attacking ...... with poison"
Before Liao Yu finished speaking, the Black Pearl suddenly began to shake violently in small increments.
Just when Liao Yu was stunned, he saw Jack bend down and stick to the wall, and at the same time kicked the door open, shouting: "Everyone, lie down!" ”
Liao Yu did not hesitate to squat down behind Jack, and rolled on the spot without any regard for face, rolling into the corner of the room. As a newcomer to naval warfare, the easiest way to survive at this time is to do what these old fur seals say.
And the next moment when Liao Yu rolled away, a dense sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded from both sides of the hull, and for a while, the screams and roars on the deck of the Black Pearl came one after another, and the noisy and chaotic sound entered the room through the heavy wooden door.
"Again?" Liao Yu muttered to himself in his heart, Blackbeard is too much to be rewarded, isn't the woman in Captain Teague's mouth as important as he thought?
Just as he was in the middle of his stomach, a slender object suddenly pierced the window next to him, and shards of glass fell to the floor of the room.
Liao Yu was suddenly startled, and subconsciously held the long sword in front of his chest with his backhand. Only then did he turn his gaze to the creature that was constantly bouncing on the floor, it was a creature that resembled a swordfish, but it was smaller than a swordfish in terms of size, and it was scaleless and silvery, and it seemed to be a creature unique to this world.
Without waiting for Liao Yu to take a closer look, Jack pulled out a flintlock pistol and blasted it off.
"Let's go." Jack changed his previous hearty demeanor, pulled Liao Yu's arm with a murderous face, and pulled him under a wooden square table. In order to prevent the furniture from tipping over and injuring people, most of the furniture on the ship is nailed to the hull.
I don't know what kind of magic has been applied to these furniture, Liao Yu grabbed it and shook it, feeling that its density was no less than steel. At this moment, he hid behind a table foot, and through the open wooden door, he saw the current situation of strange fish flying outside along the corridor, and he was in a cold sweat for a while. With the speed at which these strange fish were flying, Liao Yu would be impaled on the spot before he had time to recite the spell, which is why he planned to join the naval force in the first place.
"You stay here, I'll help them." With a hook of his right foot, Jack threw the lid of a thick wooden wine barrel on the ground at Liao Yu, who grasped it and stood it in front of him.
The wooden table is in the corner of the room, and all you have to do is crouch down against the wall and cover it with the lid of the wine barrel about 90 degrees in front of you.
Looking at this scene in front of him, Liao Yu felt that it was incredible, countless strange fish leaped up from the sea regardless of life and death, and completely charged the Black Pearl with their lives. It was not only the windows of the hull that were punctured, but even the tough hull was torn through countless wounds.
Seeing the sawdust flying all around, and the doors of the house several centimeters thick were stabbed into several pieces by these strange fish houses, Liao Yu couldn't help but secretly speak. This attack power is probably no less than that of an ordinary gunpowder weapon salvo, and if you count the magic bonus of the Black Pearl itself, I am afraid that the evaluation of the strange fish will go to the next level.
Even with the full efforts of the three Ralphs, the number of strange fish in the room is still increasing rapidly. Liao Yu's heart moved, and he hooked the red-eyed blue snail just now with his long sword, and secretly counted the times while reciting the incantation. When there was only one second left in the spell, he threw out the red-eyed blue snail with all his might, and shouted:
"Third mate, be careful!"
Ralph immediately leaped into the air, plunged his twin knives into the gaps in the planks on the roof of the room, and as soon as he exerted his waist on it, the whole person clung to it like a gecko.
Then a blazing fireball exploded in the middle of the room, and even if the fireball mixed with the red-eyed blue conch failed to exert 100% of the material's effect, it was still a full circle larger than Liao Yu's previous fireball, and the explosion radius covered almost half of the room.
A scorching fragrance spread throughout the room, and Liao Yu was just about to take a sideways look at the battle situation, when a silver light shot straight into his eyes. Liao Yu jerked up the lid of the barrel and blocked it in front of him, and the huge impact from his hand almost made him get out of his hand. If it weren't for the fact that the barrels of the Black Pearl had been specially treated and their toughness far exceeded that of ordinary barrels, Liao Yu doubted that he would be able to stand up after this time.
After this strange fish exhausted all his lives and landed on the floor with a bang, Liao Yu retracted into the corner with an ugly face, and a cold sweat from the rest of his life soaked his back in an instant.
Watching Jack outside the door slash those strange fish with dazzling steps, Liao Yu had to admit that he still had a qualitative gap with these top pirates.
The whole attack seemed to be ferocious and abnormal, but in fact it lasted for a short time, and Liao Yu estimated that it was only a few minutes before and after, and these strange fish stopped these strange attacks. He breathed a sigh of relief, stood up from the corner, and began to help Jack with the wounded.
A moment later, looking at the corpses of the elderly pirates arranged in a row on the deck, Liao Yu couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart. People are not grass and trees, after all, he is just a struggling ordinary person in the city, even if he doesn't like the style of these pirates these days, but in the face of their death, Liao Yu can't help but feel sad.
Liao Yu sighed deeply and squatted down to sort out the remains of these pirates a little.
When he got up, he saw Raphael and Green Dragon, who were also silent, looking at the more or less scratches on their bodies and the blank expressions on their faces, Liao Yu had to smile bitterly.
"This is already the second sea creature, what else will be there for the next few days?"
