The last rays of the setting sun slipped quietly, and night reigned once again over the sea.

Bang!bang...

The array of muskets on the deck of the "Daystar" spewed blazing guns one after another.

The dark blue "drowned souls" that seemed to be made of fog and water were scattered one after another, but more tidal waves of dead souls swarmed in the waves.

Whoa...

Most of them remained alive, ranging from temple guards with stubborn feathers on their heads, to Niemmenster pirates and adventurers armed with muskets and scimitars, but they kept uttering neat and loud cries in the native language:

"Cusco! Hand over ..."

But the "Daystar" is not a soft persimmon to be manipulated.

Under the onslaught of countless undead souls, even if there are fish caught in the fire net, they will be directly destroyed by Apusua, Olivia, Milan and other pirate cadres on the ship who are guarding the side of the ship.

Apusua is the main force, and Olivia, who has mastered all the official knight-level secret swordsmanship of the "Rose Sword Technique" one step ahead of Milan, is as an assistant, at most, the apprentice-level revenant will not be able to break through the defenses they have organized for a while.

And Ai Wen, who was standing on the bow of the "Daystar", stared at the broken ship that had a large number of dark blue drowning souls on the opposite side, swarming out of the cracks in the deck, the mast, and the cabin, and felt that he had been slapped in the face today:

"So, am I being fished by an evil spirit today?"

It all started half an hour earlier, when they had just spotted the empty and dilapidated sailboat.

The sailing ship that suddenly appeared in front of the "Daystar" looked no different in shape from most of today's merchant ships, but it seemed as if it had been drifting at sea for many years.

The badly weathered sails were tattered, even the planks were a little rotten, and the barnacles on the bottom of the ship had grown close to the waterline.

Evan thought it was very strange.

But after turning on the "Spiritual Vision", he didn't find anything, this was an ordinary broken ship, but there was a faint flicker of extraordinary aura belonging to some kind of treasure inside the cabin.

Instead of sending someone aboard the ship, Evan sent a seagull into the cabin to investigate, and was surprised to find a large pile of quaint and mysterious gold utensils there.

Most of them were sacrificial utensils in the style of the Ghashna Empire, and they were piled up in the cabin without even packing them.

When the seagull landed on the pile of treasures under Aiwen's control, and was about to take a closer look, it seemed to trigger the hunter's mechanism, and the invisible "trap" suddenly closed with lightning speed!

Click-

The dilapidated sailboat, which was originally unremarkable in the "spiritual vision", is like a man-eating flower that has suddenly woken up, and after the sweet bait, it finally reveals its bloodthirsty and carnivorous nature.

A black barrier mixed with blood light suddenly rose, and then washed the entire sailboat with a powerful corrosive blood-colored aura. Even a demonic creature-level seagull was melted clean in an instant.

Seagull: After all, I carried it all by myself.

Perhaps discovering that the prey was too cautious this time, the pile of gold artifacts scattered on the ground rolled out of the cabin on its own as if it were conscious, melting and converging on the deck one after another to form a glowing giant human face.

Zheng –

Suddenly opened a pair of blood-colored eyes, as if the greedy gaze that had been condensed into substance, spanning a distance of nearly a hundred meters, firmly focused on Aiwen's body.

The pirates standing next to him, even if they were only affected by the afterglow of each other's eyes, seemed to be targeted by terrifying demons, and every cell in their bodies trembled in extreme fear.

The golden man's face opened its huge mouth, and in the native language of the Garshna Empire, it let out a roar with a cold metallic voice:

"Cusco!

Then, countless drowned souls shouted the same slogan and swarmed in.

At this time, the crew of the "Daystar" finally realized what had happened to them.

Is that an evil spirit? An immortal spirit!

Normally? As the pinnacle of the evil spirit sequence, the evil spirit, although powerful, must kill according to the established rules. If you don't make the wrong choice? Even ordinary people who are powerless can save their lives in front of them.

But.

Apparently the more powerful the evil spirit, the less restricted? This time, Ai Wen only indirectly controlled the seabird and touched those treasures, and he was already targeted by the other party.

And that instantly recognizable look? and the name shouted from his mouth, Evan realized that the other party might have come for him.

Because some time ago? 'Treasure Hunter' Dawn Jones in the Cordillera Mountains of the southern New World? The discovered temple of the sun god Inti is called the "Temple of Cusco".

The image of the golden face is the emblem of the sun god Inti.

In his hand, there is a treasure that he exchanged for from the Pirate King "Dead Bones" Rudolph, known as the treasure in the "Temple of Cusco" - [Extraordinary Talisman - Eye of Inti].

"So, this evil spirit that came out of nowhere? The purpose is not just to hunt and kill? Or more to collect all kinds of treasures lost from the temple?

It's just not sure if Rudolph knew about it, and whether he had the idea of causing trouble when he was trading. ”

After understanding the essence of this guy, Ai Wen did not hesitate any longer, and ordered as soon as possible:

"Gun Chief, reload solid bullets? Sink that ship for me. ”

"Yes, my lord!"

The crew is even more afraid to worry about the golden vessels that have been linked to evil spirits? The artillery crews moved quickly, and during this time, the naval soldiers also looked a little well-trained.

"The whole crew? Fire!"

Boom, boom, boom, boom...

With 14 32-pounder guns and 15 24-pounder guns on one side of the heavy cruiser with a total projection mass of 808 pounds, no normal merchant ship on the sea can withstand such a salvo? Their fragile planks are no different from paper hulls in the face of this attack.

And this ship is clearly that exception.

After the smoke clears? It seems to be a quasi-legendary warship with [self-healing] ability.

Broken wood is starting to regenerate like going back in time? Even damage below the waterline was repaired before the water backflowed.

The sailboat has obviously been transformed into a lair by evil spirits, and even a part of the evil spirits rely on, as long as the glowing giant human face is not a problem, the ship is unsinkable!

Wow –

After the defeat of one move, the lightning flashed behind Ai Wen's back, and it had turned into two blue wings, and it had risen into the sky with a slight leap, and the part of the animal skin that activated the animal skin was obviously more flexible than the full beast suit.

Really.

After Evan broke away from the "Daystar", the target of the evil spirit also shifted, and he turned around and quickly chased after the tattered merchant ship in a very unscientific way.

Evan was certainly not prepared to flee.

Gaze at the dilapidated sailing ship chasing in a straight line and the golden human face floating above the deck.

Cracking sound...

A huge blue electric field flickered above Aven's head, and he flipped his hand over a lemon-sized steel ball stored in the "Shadow Vault Change", which had already landed in his palm.

【Official Sorcery: Demonic Weapon!】

Throwing it overhead, the enchanted steel ball immediately began to rotate in a circular shape.

The rotating trajectory had been created by him with the Activated Aura, a circular Gaussian accelerator with an internal vacuum, and then used the huge electromagnetic force of [Shenwei] to accelerate it in multiple stages.

Half a minute later.

The steel balls, which have been thoroughly turned orange and yellow by electromagnetic heating, have accumulated potential energy that can be called terrifying.

At this time.

The blue wings behind Ai Wen flapped, and the trajectory of the steel ball above his head formed a dazzling circle of light, and from a distance, Ai Wen, bathed in thunder and lightning at night, was like an angel of thunder.

Feeling that he had reached the limit of his control, Ai Wen's eyes froze, and the circular trajectory above his head immediately disconnected.

Whew——

In the blink of an eye, even the orange-yellow light in the night sky seemed to be split in half, like a bolt of lightning across the sky and sea, and it was easily blasted into pieces before the golden face that was chasing after it had no time to react.

"Library..."

Boom——!!!

As if the ice had melted, the entire sailboat and the drowning souls disappeared into the sea in an instant.

After being promoted to the third order with powerful transcendent energy, the contrast between the strength and weakness of the spirit body has been greatly reversed, and it is no longer as powerless as it was when it was the second order.

Therefore, this move is not witchcraft, but a new move from the [Thunder Sword Technique] [Upanishads: Coil Cannon], which can also be called [Angel Aperture] if it is more elegant.

In Aiwen's hands, the scope of swordsmanship application has obviously been greatly expanded again, congratulations, congratulations!

"Long live the Captain!"

"Invincible! invincible!"

The ship's men were already cheering loudly.

And there was no joy on Aivan's face when he killed the evil spirit with one blow.

Although he was temporarily killed, not only did he not get additional loot, but he also got into trouble.

Because the evil spirits are immortal and immortal, except for the fact that they have almost no self-consciousness, they are simply the ideal type of eternal seekers. They are not so much spirit creatures as they are natural phenomena of some otherworldly world.

As long as it recovers in the future, it will come to the door sooner or later.

Will you be able to reason with natural phenomena then?

......

By the time the privateer's flagship "Daystar" was sent back to Port Hatrafa, Evan and the three of Milan returned to the Far Sail Territory, and the time had already passed for another day and a half.

Although the sun was shining brightly this morning, Evan kept frowning.

"What the hell is going on?"

It wasn't because of the evil spirit that would come back to life in an unknown number of years, but because on the way back yesterday evening, a sudden and intense heart palpitation hit him.

As a powerful third-order transcendent whose physical strength was comparable to that of a demon, this situation was simply unimaginable.

If it were an ordinary person, he might not care so much, but as a powerful transcendent with a formal wizard rank, Evan would not turn a deaf ear.

Just like the dream that Angel had before, there must be some hints.

Until he returned to the temporary station of the Far Sail Leader "Storm Horn".

In the reception room, I saw Major General Demont Brand, who had come all the way from "Fort Dilborne", and the expression on his face, apologies, regrets, and... Slight sympathy.

Ai Wen's heart thumped, and he already had an extremely bad premonition.

Sure enough, after receiving the urgent letter that he personally sent through the spirit world.

"Yesterday afternoon, the fleet of Cyrius raided... Colonel Gehr fights the third-order steel knight Kungang Teta and is seriously injured... Dying!"

Ai Wen's sturdy and tall body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and the blue captain behind him made a violent sound, mixed with thousands of sharp birdsong and rolling muffled thunder from the clouds.

Sting!

The huge life magnetic field that was originally firmly restrained was unstable, as if a thunderbolt suddenly descended on the reception room.

Boom –

The walls exploded, the wind swept through, and even Demon, who was a great knight, couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Aven, don't be impulsive, the letter from 'Tedadisburg' is so that you can see Colonel Gehr for the last time, you..."

By the time he came to his senses, Evan had rushed out with a furious bolt of lightning.

"Storm Horn, Assemble !!"

A roar echoed in the harbor for a long time.

Just a quarter of an hour later, the Storm Horn was in full swing, including Milan and Roddy, who had just returned.

First mate Boris, who had never seen a captain like such a volcanic eruption, stepped forward and asked:

"Your Excellency, where are we going?"

The expression on Aiwen's face was like frozen ice, and a biting cold wind came out between his teeth, word by word:

"Launch the 'White Shark Cruise', Southern Continent, go! Kill !
