Chapter 33 Set sail and set sail

"I'm fine, the evil head has been ambushed."

"Is this it?"

The nuns looked at the mutilated corpses lying on the ground with disgust, almost gnawed into skeletons—they had heard of people gnawing themselves to death when they were suffering from the "famine."

"Of course not, it's just a corpse puppet, and even its stomach has been gnawed off by the Corpse Whisperer. There he is. ”

Zhang Huaisheng pointed to the "pile of stones" and explained: "I am worried that he is not dead and does not carry extra ammunition, so I can only deal with it in this way." ”

He felt a little embarrassed, after all, his behavior highlighted one word, that is, "cowardice".

Unexpectedly, the Chicken Feet Lady immediately showed an expression of admiration, and taught the nuns behind her:

"Did you hear that, you have to learn from Mr. Zhang's cautious style, the path to transcendence is full of dangers, and if you are not careful, you will die like Talana."

"Got it, Mama O'Connell."

Lady Chicken Paw looked at Zhang Huaisheng again and said, "But now it is certain that he is dead, because you see there, the spiritual crystallization has appeared." ”

"Really!"

Through the scattered pile of stones, Zhang Huaisheng could see that there was a red glow inside.

He took a few steps forward, moving away from the stones, and for a moment he couldn't bear to look at them directly.

The current Mr. Corpse Whisperer can be described as extremely miserable, and there is nothing intact on his body - a red crystal is hovering less than an inch above his head.

According to the book, this is the crystallization of the spiritual precipitation of the transcendent after death, which can be used to replace the corresponding sequence of potions, and can also be used to create transcendent weapons.

The "Saker Falcon" in Zhang Huaisheng's hand was created from the crystals left over from the eagle eye of Sequence 7.

However, whether the weapons created can exert their corresponding strength depends on the level of craftsmen.

At the very least, Zhang Huaisheng felt that the "Saker Falcon" in his hand was far from giving full play to the superiority of Sequence 7 Eagle Eye.

As for why this kind of crystallization did not appear after the butcher's death, it was because the spiritual power in his body was drained, which led to the birth of the "bone chopping knife".

It can be said that the bone chopping knife is an extraordinary weapon made from the crystallization of a butcher.

Thinking of the bone chopping knife, Zhang Huaisheng secretly thought, maybe he should give the bone chopping knife a loud new name, after all, it is too ugly to always call it like this.

That's right, the bone chopping knife shined in this battle, and directly abolished a corpse puppet suspected of passing through sequence 8 of the rock, even if it was very demonic, Zhang Huaisheng didn't plan to sell it.

"This crystal..."

Lady Chicken Paw looked serious and said solemnly: "Of course it belongs to you, sir, you not only saved the lives of many of us, but also risked great danger to kill this murderer on the spot, and the spoils of war should certainly belong to you." ”

"Isn't that okay? You have also participated and sacrificed, how can I be the sole proponent of the spoils? ”

Zhang Huaisheng hurriedly excused himself.

This is not a false offer.

Without the help of the Sisters of the Calamity, he would not have been able to kill a Sequence 8 Corpse Whisperer on his own.

Although he helped the Calamity Order twice, the first time, the bone chopping knife obtained by killing the butcher was already equivalent to his exclusive spoils - the death of the butcher, he hit at most one-fifth of the output, and the other four-fifths had to be counted on the head of the dead Mama Alice.

"There's nothing wrong with that, sir, this is what you deserve, and besides, these three corpse golems may also be able to crystallize, and we will give it to you when the time comes."

Zhang Huaisheng shook his head: "No need, let's take these things to the black market of hamburgers and sell them, rocks and butchers are more popular routes, and they should be able to sell at a good price; The Masters are small, but they are rare, and if they are found in the right person, they can be sold for a higher price—the money that can be used to buy supplies and building materials. ”

Texas has a large area of wasteland at this time, although it cannot be said to be a completely deserted place, but compared with the developed northern states, there may be no shortage of agricultural products, but building materials, including metal tools, are still in short supply.

On the contrary, these things are cheap in Hamburg.

"Sir, you are generous, but we in the Calamity Church are not ungrateful people... So be it, as you wish, but sell these crystallized riches and you'll get fifty percent. ”

Zhang Huaisheng thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, then do it." ”

It's a pleasant conversation.

Both sides are making concessions, but at the same time, they are also testing the sincerity of the other party, for example, if Zhang Huaisheng promises to take all the loot.

While Lady Chicken Feet does agree, her trust in him will be greatly reduced, and she will change from a trustworthy companion to a person who can only be traded.

In the same way, if Ms. Chicken Paw really follows Zhang Huaisheng's proposal and does not plan to give him anything, and uses him as a wage earner, then he will also regard the Church of Calamity as a "companion limited to this trip", rather than a companion who can communicate with each other and work together.

This is much more decent and harmonious than the traders fighting for interests without giving an inch.

"Now that the enemy has been resolved, we also need to set sail as soon as possible.

By the way, Mr. Zhang, due to the impact of the 'famine', you must be very hungry, right? ”

When Zhang Huaisheng heard this, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva: "That's true, I want to borrow the kitchen - don't be afraid of your jokes, I've been eating salted boiled potatoes every day for quite a long time." ”

...

On the vast sea, the sea breeze blows.

The sun shines on the deck, reflecting a golden light.

Zhang Huaisheng was lying under a parasol, on a recliner, holding an ancient book with yellowed edges and reading with relish — a description of the demon "Black Knight."

There are also hand-drawn illustrations on it, which are related to his promotion in Sequence 7.

The Black Knight is indeed a demon, adept at demagoguery, riding a flaming skeleton horse through eerie swamps.

Not only are they good at knight charges, but they can also transform ordinary people into werewolves for their own use, knowing that werewolves correspond to sequence 8 of the demon's path.

This shows that this kind of demon is definitely very difficult to deal with.

Many of the books in the Calamity Church have really helped him a lot, and they have greatly compensated for his lack of systematic and extraordinary education.

Not only that, but he could also ask Lady Chicken Feet a number of questions that the veteran transcendent couldn't understand, and despite her limited talent, she was slow to advance to Sequence 8.

But in theory, Ms. Chicken Paw is definitely in the top three in the Calamity Church.

Oh yes, Ms. Chicken Feet' real name is already known by Zhang Huaisheng, and her name is "Brigitte O'Connell", which is the Gaelic word for the goddess of fire and sun, and the patron goddess of domestic animals.

Her grandfather was Daniel O'Connell, a pioneer of the Irish independence movement.

On the lookout, a sailor suddenly waved a flag.

"I saw a ship... Two ships, no, a whole fleet! ”

"What kind of flag is flying?"

"It's like an Italian flag."

The sailors were not necessarily panicked, this was the North Sea, not the deserted Atlantic, and it was impossible for warships to fire indiscriminately at fishing boats.

But the fact that the Italian fleet had made a rare run from the Mediterranean to the North Sea was a great provocation to the British, which made them immediately stop what they were doing and gather together excitedly to watch.

In the distance, a huge fleet was cleaving the waves, slowly approaching from the vast sea.

"Italians dare to provoke the British, which is really rare."

"Perhaps at the invitation of the Germans, a joint military exercise with the High Seas Fleet."

"By the way, Germany, Italy and Austria have formed the Triple Alliance, which may be the clarion call for them to officially challenge the British!"

The sailors chatted excitedly.

"Jinyu, do you think the Triple Alliance can defeat the British?"

Teresa, who was recovering from a serious illness, appeared behind Zhang Huaisheng in a nun suit.

"It's hard."

Zhang Huaisheng shook his head, the comparison of strength actually seems to be three to three, but in fact, it can be seen that the Germans are fighting alone.

Italy's combat power cannot neutralize any of Britain, France and Russia, and this also assumes that the Italians did not backstab the big brothers in the war as they did in parallel time and space.

Italy in this era, although not weak on paper, had a powerful Mediterranean fleet.

But their army was so unbearable that it could not even be defeated by the natives of East Africa, and it was a shame for the great powers along with Spain, which was in decline.

Of course, in fact, the Italian Army was not so weak that it was too outrageous, that is, it fought back and forth with the Austro-Hungarian Army, which was violently beaten by the Russians on the Eastern Front.

Although it happened in a parallel time and space, the Italians as a nation, in this era, also lost the martial virtues of their ancestors and the Romans, and their combat effectiveness was worrying.

Austria-Hungary, on the other hand, is facing extremely acute national contradictions at home, and it can be said that the Triple Alliance, only the Germans, can be regarded as the real top powers.
