Chapter 9: White Ivory
When Elena brought the news that the storm was coming, Makoto was still tirelessly practicing the Flying Feather Talisman Sword Technique. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
At this time, the power he leveraged could only freely move the first three moves of this set of swordsmanship, and the progress was slightly subtle.
After so many days and countless exercises, the power used by the Flying Feather Talisman Sword Technique has not even reached one percent of the content in his body, and the stubbornness of that power is far beyond Cheng's expectations.
Makoto discovers that the power in his body actually has his own consciousness, which is something somewhat close to the black sea.
Therefore, when Makoto really began to transform this power, he suddenly found that the conversion rate of the Flying Feather Talisman Sword Technique to the power of death was extremely low, and the resistance of that strange power to this set of swordsmanship was also rising.
After comparing and communicating with Elena, Makoto realized that Captain Ghost has a different way of gaining power, so he should have his own way of transforming power.
'Extracting power directly from the sea is like cheating, but it's a pity that I'm just a stowaway, sitting on a treasure mountain, but I don't know how to spend money!'
Makoto looked at the sea that began to rise and fall, and said secretly, "Maybe it has something to do with the boat?"
"What?"
"No, nothing. ā
Cheng didn't expect that he had accidentally said what was in his heart just now, so he answered: "I mean, I don't know if this storm can blow a dead body, aren't we going to collect corpse oil." ā
Speaking of which, he suddenly remembered that Elena was a dried corpse when she was resurrected, and he didn't know how the various forms of necromancy here were chosen to spawn.
Elena was silent for a moment, then pretended to be casual, "We're not going to leave anytime soon?"
"Why?" said Chengqi.
"No money. She snapped.
I was speechless for this reason. ā
Makoto looked at Elena, and suddenly felt like he was facing a stranger, he couldn't see a little of the previous anxiety from her at this time, and the aura of death all over his body did not fluctuate, which was in stark contrast to before.
Elena gave Makoto a sense of epiphany, but in fact, he didn't know that Elena was not letting go, but forgetting, and at this time she had forgotten the reason for the eagerness to leave when she first woke up.
Perhaps Elena did want to leave when she lit the lamp for the first time, but after accidentally falling into the water, the memories associated with it were washed away by water, and after so many days, even the last bit of residue dissipated.
Looking at the increasingly rapid waves of the sea, and feeling the cold touch in the connection with the white ivory that was constantly eroding the hull of the ship, Makoto was silent for a while, and said to Elena as if he had made up his mind:
"But I have a boat. ā
There was a flash of lightning in the sky, and a bolt of lightning fell on the sea.
With a thunderous 'click', Makoto saw Elena's twinkling eyes that didn't know what it meant.
The thunder in the sky did not stop like a surging thunder dragon, and when the storm came, the sky was brighter than usual.
Elena pointed to the inexplicable ship that was only a foot in front of her, and it didn't look like a ship at all except for its hull, and asked, "This is the ship you are talking about?"
Elena felt like she should have slashed this guy with a sword. Even she didn't know what kind of mentality she had in mind when she came to see the so-called ship, but what she saw was a strange ship that was no longer than her own calf.
"Well, I'm a little smaller, but I've really come back as Captain Ghost. ā
Elena took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and walked away with a cold snort.
She felt like something was wrong with her memory, and Makoto's mind was probably not normal.
'It's all necromancy, after all!' she thought.
The white ivory was as cold as ice, and Makoto's departure made its transformation into the power of death shrink sharply, but when the wind was calm, it was okay, and in this stormy weather, the violent power of death continued to fill every part of it like a tide. At this time, the entire hull of the ship was completely infected with black, turning into black ivory. If Cheng hadn't noticed it and driven it ashore, I'm afraid it would have been pulled to the bottom of the sea by the force of death.
Makoto breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the intact white tusk, and if it did sink to the bottom of the sea, Makoto could hardly imagine what would happen to him.
Holding white tusks, which had become at least three times heavier, Makoto went to a cave that had grown on the island.
Although construction has recently begun to appear on the southern side of the island, it is clear that the caves feel more secure than the ruins in this weather.
Elena was sitting in the cave sulking, apparently not believing in Captain Makoto's identity.
Putting the white ivory aside, Cheng said with some unwillingness: "No one has stipulated that the ghost ship is very big at the beginning, you see that this small island has not grown very fast recently, maybe the ghost ship can grow up." ā
This reluctance may be more of an expectation, after all, the one-foot-long ghost ship is indeed not very handsome, but a little funny.
Elena replied angrily, "The ghost ship was built by the god Terfirea from the ancient trees of the Atlas, and the appearance of each ship can be found in ancient books, but I have never heard that the ship will become larger. ā
"I haven't read an old book. As soon as Makoto's rebuttal came out, he suddenly seemed to wake up, and eagerly asked Elena, "The Ancient Tree of the Other World?"
"Well, it is said that it is because it is an otherworldly thing that it can float on the sea of revenants. She paused, looked straight at Makoto, and asked in a slightly mocking tone, "You've always heard of the other world." ā
"Otherworldly, otherworldly! I see, is this so?" Hearing this, Makoto suddenly realized why he could become Captain Ghost.
He touched his chin and thought to himself, 'If otherworldly things have a special role here, what about otherworldly souls?'
Thinking of this, he looked up at Elena and asked, "Are there many things from the other world?"
"Of course not much, I haven't heard of anything other than the ancient tree I found, but the god of the underworld used the ancient tree to build a total of 100 ghost ships, so I think that the ancient tree must be very big. ā
"Are you sure it's not the same size as my one, and then slowly getting bigger?"
"Humph!" she snorted, expressing her disdain.
"Hmph!" Cheng countered his body in his own way, then patted the white ivory and said, "Look at it." ā
As the words fell, Makoto's hand that came into contact with the white ivory instantly turned into a white flame, and then spread to his whole body in an instant, and at the same time, the white flame quickly rushed into the hull of the ship.
A thin mist of death's power erupted from the white ivory, circled the ship and sank underneath, slowly but surely lifting the entire hull.
Under Elena's shocked gaze, the white tusks came to a steady halt in the void, and then unleashed an even stronger force of death.
And with the surge of the power of death, a miserable howl like killing a pig also came out.
The power of death that had accumulated on the ship before, which had already stained the hull black, apparently gave Makoto a big surprise.
He thought there would be no more, and the fifth transformation of the power of death began.
