"Si'a actually said in the oracle that she was going to do penance, this must be something wrong with her brain."

"Also, I remember that a small coastal town in the south was said to have been destroyed in another tsunami last month, but the surrounding cities did not see even a shadow of a tidal wave, and I had never heard of such a localized tsunami."

Richard Ernst patted the crumbs of the tortilla off his clothes with his hand, and his tone was a little mocking and a little funny:

"Poor Siea, his already unsmart brain is even worse."

"But why did the Church of the Seven suddenly start taking care of her? Didn't the great sacrifices of the past all teach the extraordinary people and the people to live according to their abilities? ”

The Dark Sage didn't answer this, and he chose to throw out another piece of information to pick up the conversation:

"The oracle has reported that there is an infighting among the Rose School in the city of Beckland."

"It was an innocent passer-by who was affected, claiming to have seen monsters and ghosts appear in the night."

After Richard chewed slowly and swallowed the food in her mouth, she asked:

"Did you see their appearance?"

"It is said that the ghost is a blonde woman dressed in black."

"Oh, it's her."

Beckland, the Wraith, the blonde woman, Richard didn't have much trouble guessing the identity of the other party - if she guessed correctly, it was probably the last child Renette had ever taught before she died, the little girl named Sharon.

The last time she went to Beckland to stop the Great Smog, Maria and the "living corpse" under her command also reported their affairs, but Sharon refused to contact the Pilgrimage Sect and found a helper to wipe out the Indulgent pursuers and settle down smoothly.

That little girl is already in sequence 5......

Richard didn't have much impression of Sharon, Renette had seen a few times when she was still alive, and vaguely remembered that she was a little girl, and she didn't throw an olive branch to her, but the answer she got was a refusal.

"She's been found in Beckland again? Also, Renette's status as a disciple can make up for the lack of sequence, and Siea will happily accept this sacrifice. ”

Teacher-student inheritance is common in hidden organizations, and even today, when neurosis has become the mainstream of the Rose School, teacher-student inheritance is still the main development method of the "prisoner" approach.

To a certain extent, the connection between master and apprentice sometimes transcends blood ties and becomes relatives in the occult sense as blood ties.

Coupled with the special customs of the Highland Kingdom, people like to add the names of their respected elders in their families to their names, so sometimes the disciples will inherit the extraordinary characteristics and even the name of the teacher, and they are the true occult inheritors.

And Siea's strengthening and Renette's death are two things that have a relationship between them, but this matter has not attracted much attention, it is just an internal struggle of a cult organization, and people from the outside world do not know the extraordinary, and even the name of the highland princess is not clear.

In order to prevent ordinary people from discovering that a cult leader can live for hundreds of years, the Orthodox Church often emphasizes the title of the other party and weakens the name when screening and filtering information, such as "God Sin", "Pale Empress", and "Aurora Divine Messenger", so as to blur their names. Not to mention that this information is not accessible to ordinary people in the first place, even if these people are really still active in the public eye after a few decades, people who do not have extraordinary knowledge will subconsciously think about "title inheritance".

The Dark Sage broke the bread and looked at the tortillas while remembering the sweet and delicious sacrament cake of the Aurora, and hinted at the Lord's words:

"The change in Siea this time may not be entirely the work of the church."

Richard paused for brushing the sauce on the barbecue, and she said with an unchanged expression, "It seems that there is something in the words." ”

"Your Excellency, you don't have to say so much, after all, I have survived by surviving in the cracks. The church was willing to sponsor me only in the hope that I could balance the angels of the abyss, and my value had already been greatly diminished by the time the teacher completed his promotion. ”

"Coupled with the forcible intervention in the Great Smog Incident that was tacitly approved by the Royal Family of Rune, I am no longer suitable to appear in the Northern Continent."

"If it weren't for Frank giving me such a great seed, I might have considered whether or not I should have taken the risk of going to Fenerport again."

Richard blinked, looking at the Dark Sage very sincerely, the implication is that you and the Aurora Society don't expect me to go and block the teacher, there is no point in paying attention to Edward Vaughn's whereabouts, I can't beat her, you have to go yourself.

It is impossible to fight, unless I am tired of living, and the current situation is critical, so I can only do business, engage in production and maintain my life.

Kersma naturally understood what the other party meant, but after he heard one of the words, his eyes suddenly rolled.

"Do you know anything about the Great Smog?"

"Yes." Richard said, "Through a divination, I suspect that the Great Smog may have something to do with the royal family of Augustus." Considering that the royal family of Augustus was the 'Inquisitor', and that the Crown of Byron began to be gradually exhibited in museums in the past decade, and that obscure laws and new architectural styles emerged one after another, I can probably guess where the missing people of the Southern Continent and the civilians of the Northern Continent have gone. ”

"What a pity! I had also expected the king because of the long-term benefits of the employee law, the food law and the environment. ”

Richard shook his head, looking lonely and sad: "Her mother's, does Aurora know where her grave is?" ”

The Dark Sage shook his head regretfully.

The Dark Sage asked, "Since you are also angry about what the Augustan royal family has done, would you like to help us as a philanthropist to uncover the truth about the Great Smog?" ”

"There is no conclusive evidence. My status as a philanthropist is supposed to be the icing on the cake, and what I say as a human being is hardly enough to attract widespread attention, and maybe even my subordinates will suffer. Richard said, "I'm willing to help, but I'll talk about it later." ”

"Death Call".

It took two months for Agaritu to really touch the coastline of the Eastern Continent, and with the immortal nature and the building materials that could be encountered at any time on the sea, after dying a total of seventeen or eighteen times, he completed the map of the ruins of the Divine War along the coast.

In fact, he could not die so many times, but the inexplicable bad luck of Urorius followed him, and even a well-prepared expedition could encounter strange reasons and lead to failure.

"The power that appeared in the ruins of the Divine War...... Earth, Secret, Storm, Prisoner...... It basically coincides with the current seven gods, and you can also find the corresponding position. ”

"The ancient sun god found so many people to kill him, as well as Ulorius and Medici, and in the end he was eaten by the three gods."

"I'm glad to see that when she dies, other gods can have room for development."

His men spread out his own priceless map of the ruins of the Divine War, which meticulously marked the divine power and how to deal with each regional branch, and drew countless safe routes.

If it spreads to the outside world, it will definitely cause adventurers and pirates to go crazy.

"Anyway, there is no way to go to the Eastern Continent normally, the coast is either hidden, or the dark tide that can tear apart the demigods, as well as the wandering 'sun' and the abundance of life, the angels have to peel off their skins if they want to go there, the easiest way is to take the pilgrimage road of the Aurora Society, or find the key to the Giant Court."

Agaritu leaned back in his seat, closed his eyes and began to doze off.

The deck was bustling with people, and a golden-haired hunter in a waistcoat and white shirt sat on a sculpture at the bow of the ship, intently depicting the sea level and sky in the distance.

The first mate looked up at him and said, "Anderson, it's time for you to wash the dishes today." ”

Anderson, who had a paintbrush in his ear and a paint pan in his hand, turned his head: "What? Didn't I just wash the dishes yesterday? ”

A man who was scrubbing the deck looked up and picked up the conversation: "You bribed me yesterday with the money for drinking to help you wash the dishes, and today you should wash yourself." ”

Anderson reluctantly: "Co-authored to say that my bribe can only delay the washing of dishes by one day?" But that's 3 pounds! I sold two paintings for the money! ”

And the attendant who poured water for Agaritu said:

"Three pounds is just enough for me to change a shell, and I don't need to drink. Anderson, you hurry up and wash the dishes. ”

"I asked to come up and wipe the deck, but why do I always wash the dishes......"

Anderson was even more reluctant, but he jumped off the bow sculpture and carefully collected his only source of income.

The crew watched him walk into the cabin and go about his business.

The "Death Story" floated gracefully on the sea, and Agaritu, who had completed Edward's mission, touched the fish like the "Death Number" in addition to the necessary display of his demonic nature, and the body was also touching anyway, and he also added a thousand to his bounty.

It seems that it was because he accidentally looted a church ship.

Who is to blame for this? Do you want to blame the demons? The church members were not quick enough to shout and surrender, but if he could reveal his identity before the last man died, Agaritu would not have cleaned up the ship.

The sailors on the ship are also obedient now, and no one thinks of doing something big.

The "Death Cry" floated out of a god-war ruin, and at that moment, an observer suddenly shouted:

"There's a big sailboat approaching ahead!"

Brush Brush Brush!

The crew stood up and went where they needed to go, mops and buckets in their hands.

Disturbed from his nap, Agaritu turned his head to look over there, and he saw a ship with shimmering stars moving in the opposite direction of him, approaching very quickly.

"Bernadette?"

The sailboat drew nearer, the flag became clearer, and the crimson but faint moonlight made the people of the harbor see ten white stars of the same size on it, and those stars surrounded an indifferent eye without eyelashes.

"Admiral of the Stars!"

"Future!"

The sailors said loudly, the "faceless puppet" looked very excited, it was already able to influence nearly a hundred people at the same time, it was training its actual combat ability, and it couldn't wait to take the "star general" to practice its hands.

"A chance encounter?"

"Why did the star general suddenly appear in the Sea of God War, and want to explore the ruins? Well, it's no surprise that voyeurs like to explore the unknown to gain knowledge. ”

At this time, the sailor ran up: "Captain! Captain! ”

"There's a very powerful, terrifying person up there!" The sailor said, "Shall we go up?" I'm a little scared of the people up there! ”

"There's something on it that you're afraid of?"

Agaritu asked the "disfigured puppet" rhetorically: "What do you feel?" Is the high sequence powerhouse of the soothsayer path? ”

"The Faceless Doll" hesitated and said, "I can't express that feeling exactly, Captain, but I feel that I want to be close to him, but I am afraid of him...... His aura was terrifying, by the way, I had seen it once in Byam! ”

Byam? Byam...... Agaritu suddenly thought of something.

"Stop the ship, don't drop anchor." He said, "'Death,' ready to turn and artillery, ready to attack," he said. ”

The rudder of the "Death" automatically turned, and one by one the dark muzzles appeared on the side of the ship, and the spiritual cannonballs were filled, and they were secretly aimed at the "Future" that was getting closer and closer.

……

The Future didn't stop moving, and it didn't take long for it to get closer to the gloomy behemoth.

Crane finally saw the other party's appearance clearly, and realized that it was not a sea monster, but a sailing ship that was larger than the Future.

The length of this sailing ship is nearly 200 meters, and it is raised high in front and back, and the whole thing looks like a crescent.

It has a black coating; The guns on the side of the ship were staggered and divided into three rows, in an orderly manner; The protruding part of the deck, except for the mast, is equally tall and massive, at least equivalent to a five-story house.

The most bizarre thing about this ship is that it has only one sail on which a black tombstone is depicted.

The solemn voice of "Death ......" rang in Crane's ears, and Frank Lee somehow put down the apples and let them run around on the Future, and walked next to him.

The £7,000 first mate's face was calm and his muscles tense, as if he was ready to attack at the slightest change in the huge sailing ship.

Death number? Crane was stunned for a moment, then remembered what the name meant.

It is one of the most famous and legendary ships on the five seas!

It is the flagship of the "Immortal King" Agaritu!

actually met one of the "Four Kings...... Crane was secretly speechless, and uncontrollably shifted to a state of high alert.

However, he remained indifferent and calm on the surface, still looking at the "Death".

Thinking of the recent rumors of the "Immortal King", the other party frequently entered and exited the ruins of the Divine War, it is said that he wanted to find the "Fountain of Immortality" that once gave him extraordinary vitality, or that the "Immortal King" found a nautical chart of the ruins, searched for treasures, and constantly entered with his crew, and returned alone...... Crane was relieved and no longer wondered why he had encountered the "Death Call" not far from the Gargas Islands.

Originally, he was a little worried about whether he would meet the other party in the dangerous sea of divine warfare, but he didn't expect to meet him in the open sea.

After putting this question aside, he thought of more rumors, and some of these rumors can be determined to be true descriptions:

"The 'Immortal King' Agaritu is a middle-aged man who is so pale that it seems to decay at any moment;

"His bounty for a single country is as high as £100,000;

"Those who were once his enemies, whether pirates, adventurers, or a certain naval fleet, have all perished, and only the other three, who are also the 'Four Kings,' are still alive;

"He has never clashed head-on with the official demigods, and has shown extreme restraint in this regard;

"Hardly anyone knows his specific sequence, no one knows about his extraordinary abilities;

"He is cruel by nature, has a penchant for killing, and may attack any man or any ship at any time;

"He likes to find excuses to tear up promises, and in addition to the title of 'King of the Immortals,' he is widely referred to as the 'Untrustworthy.'"

Fortunately, I am now riding the "Future", and the "Immortal King" should sell the "Star General" a little bit of face, after all, the "Hermit" lady is also one of the seven pirate generals...... No, the "Four Kings" and the pirate generals, in addition to the "King of the Five Seas" convened by the pirate conference can live in peace, under normal conditions, there is cooperation and confrontation, and the latter is the majority, a few months ago, the "Blood General" and the "Twilight Lieutenant General" had a big battle, and during the Byam tsunami, the "Mysterious Queen" and him also appeared...... Coupled with the style of the "Immortal King", things may not just stop at the road! No sooner had Crane flashed such a thought than he heard a low trumpet.

Woo!

The sailors who were resting in the cabin woke up in an instant, and did not care about putting on their clothes, or went straight to the different gun ports, or went to the deck to prepare for the shipside, and the "Future" suddenly changed from a peaceful state to wartime.

Crane turned his head and looked up, only to see that the window of the captain's room had been opened, and the "Admiral of the Stars" Gardelia, dressed in the same black robe, stood there, staring in the direction of the "Death".

She didn't wear the heavy glasses anymore, and her dark eyes were dyed a little dark purple, dark and mysterious.

"Sure enough, she was also worried about the sudden attack of the 'Immortal King'......" Crane retracted his gaze and looked back at the "Death" with its head and tail up.

At this time, the two ships were already in a state of passing by, and the pirates on the opposite side were looming.

The fellows looked at this side too, or as quiet as statues, without the slightest fluctuation of emotion, or brandished their sabers and blew their muzzles, and did their best to provoke them.

The people on the two ships were silent, and suddenly, several people on the Death moved out of the way, and a man wearing a tricorne hat who looked like he was of Southern Continental blood appeared in the gap, his dark red eyes scanned the members of the "Future", swept over the "Star Admiral", Frank Lee, and everyone, and finally, stayed on Crane's body.

Crane, who was standing on the deck in the face of Gelman Sparrow, suddenly felt a great crisis, and suddenly, Crane's eyes flashed, his heart stopped as if it was being gripped by the ground, and the gray mist flashed.

Crane almost fell to his knees due to cardiac arrest, he held the side of the ship with one hand, his expression instantly became extremely serious, and the "wriggling hunger" opened his bloody mouth, but he did not immediately emit a terrifying bloodthirsty aura to the surroundings as usual.

Its "horror" is completely overshadowed by a much greater crisis that is imminent!

Crane quickly thought about the reason why he was being targeted, but before he could think of a conclusion, on the opposite "Death Call", the sound of gears turning and mechanical reset had already been heard, and the pitch-black muzzle quickly turned, and the spiritual brilliance flickered.

The "Immortal King" ignores Gardelia, who is closely associated with Bernadette, and Frank Lee on the ship.

He looked at Crane and ordered, as if death had been sealed:

"Open fire."
