Shadow ghosts also have limits!

Mu You realized this for the first time.

Judging from the current battle situation, level 30 is probably the upper limit of its ability.

The reason why it seems that he can't compete with this level 30 ghost now is because the shadow ghost is unconscious and always fights with instinct.

And that ghost, however, is a wise one, and can adopt some tactics to amplify his offensive and defensive capabilities, and it is naturally easy to gain an advantage.

Of course, the Shadow Ghost is not so easy to restrain itself, and when it is suppressed, it incarnates into a berserker, instinctively adopting a more intense way of fighting with injuries.

And with this speed increase, the pirate ghost had to speed up in order to maintain suppression, and the giant sword swung wildly again and again, and began a drastic damage exchange with the shadow ghost.

It's just that this wave of exchange was too wild, and both sides almost gave up dodging and parrying, and only cared about slashing their blades and claws across each other's bodies, and the overflowing souls kept splashing out of the two soul bodies.

Mu You silently observed the health values on both sides, and soon found that the vitality that seemed to slide smoothly on both sides was actually slightly slower on the pirate's side.

No wonder this guy would choose to fight against the shadow ghost, he probably calculated it a long time ago, and he was destined to win if he continued to fight like this.

Seeing that the battle between the two sides has reached a white-hot stage, and the health value has both dropped by 50%, while the shadow ghost has already slipped to 40% first, the gap between the two sides has really become obvious.

Mu You knew that he had to intervene, if the iron-blooded real men on both sides fought against each other, it would be okay, and now you are so clever and bullying my family's shadow ghost, can you still let you succeed?

On the battlefield, the pirate ghost moved sideways to avoid the shadow ghost's claw, and was about to turn around and take advantage of the momentum to chase and slash a sword, but as soon as he took a step, he felt a whistling sound behind him.

Subconsciously looked back, and saw a huge fireball smashed head-on, and the angle was extremely tricky.

Can it not be tricky? This fireball was practiced by Mu You with his pocket watch more than 30 times before he found the best angle and timing, just in time to see the opponent's attack halfway through, attacking from the side, and when the other party found out, there was no room to dodge, and it was smashed.

"Boom!"

In the next moment, the flames exploded.

Although the level 30 ghost faces Mu You, an ordinary player who is less than level 10, and has a four-level damage reduction buff suppression, the damage is only 6% of the original, but after all, the vampire skin still has the talent of a giant killer, and the damage has increased to 30% with a 5x bonus.

The small fireball technique that was originally one-third of the power smashed on the ghost's body, so that it would not hurt his vitality greatly, and it was more than enough to cause some interference.

Under the blow, the pirate's action was smashed and deformed, and a sword was slashed into the air, but it was violently pierced through the stomach by the shadow ghost who came back, a large piece of soul overflowed, and the life bar plummeted, and the little advantage that was originally leading was instantly pulled back to the same attrition.

"Roar!"

The ghost roared angrily, and wanted to turn around to see who had put the trick, but unfortunately the shadow ghost didn't give him a chance at all, and took advantage of his illness to kill him, chasing and beating him with one claw, and the ghost had to hurriedly put all his energy back on the parry.

However, just when he had just stabilized the situation and was about to fight back again, a strong magic wave suddenly hit behind him.

This time the ghost learned a lesson, and he didn't even have time to look back, so he hurriedly rolled to the side.

I thought that this timely reaction would be enough to dodge this sneak attack, but I didn't think about it, but this roll fell into a trap and was exploded by a rapidly rolling snowball.

It turned out that the snowball was not coming towards him, but was launched to the side, and he didn't do anything, but he rolled this way, but as if he was deliberately cooperating with the performance, he hit the snowball at a fast speed.

In the next moment, the snowball exploded and turned into countless ice crystals, although there was no freezing because it did not exceed the distance of eighty meters, but the slowing effect brought by the snowball alone was enough for him to drink a pot.

In the snowflakes, the ghost's body was suddenly dyed with ice, and the speed of movement and attack was greatly reduced, and the shadow ghost would not let go of this opportunity, rushing up with a wild burst of onslaught, taking away nearly 20% of the ghost's blood volume in the blink of an eye, and directly entered the residual blood stage.

The ghost was even more furious this time, and turned his head to see Mu You, who was hiding not far away, still holding a magic wand, and suddenly yelled towards the cabin.

He can't tell the difference, but after all, there are many younger brothers under him.

With this roar, the ghosts that had been hiding just now poured out of the boat again, some of them heading towards the shadow ghosts, and some of them rushed towards Mu You's hideout.

Seeing the little ghosts rushing up, Mu You didn't think about going head-to-head with them, and was ready to retreat to the exit to hide first.

As a result, before he could move, in the lamppost in his hand, Willy's remnant soul suddenly penetrated the package of the lamppost and came out, his body instantly became larger, turning back to the size of a normal human, stopping in front of Mu You, and yelling forward: "Stop it!" ”

Under this roar, those imps who rushed towards him, as well as the ghosts that surrounded the shadow ghosts in the distance, all immediately stopped and looked at this side incredulously.

Seeing the former captain appear, the ghosts seemed to see something frightening, and the soul fire in their eyes swayed wildly, trembling all over, and they didn't dare to take a step forward.

Mu You saw infinite fear and guilt in the eyes of these ghost ghosts, and this discovery made his heart move.

Originally, he planned to assist the shadow ghosts and kill all these ghosts, but now it seems that these ghosts still have value?

In the distance, the great ghost who was fighting the shadow ghost at a critical moment, seeing Willy suddenly appearing here, was also shocked, and the soul fire was shaken.

Even if Willy knew at a glance that it was just a wisp of remnant soul that was so weak that it would dissipate at any time, and he couldn't even hold up a slap in front of him, but in the face of the former captain, the ghost still felt a fear from the depths of his soul.

No matter how powerful he becomes, he can't change the fact that he is just a betrayer, and being imprisoned under this deep sea for a long time is also the punishment for the betrayer.

The ghosts were shaken, but the shadow ghosts were not, seizing the opportunity of the pirate ghosts to be distracted, and another wave of fierce pursuit and fierce attacks, instantly turning the ghost's life halo black.

On the verge of dissipating, the ghost was also completely ruthless at this time, and he couldn't care about the figure on the other side, and roared angrily and launched a final onslaught towards the shadow ghost. However, the Shadow Ghost is not afraid of this, it itself is synonymous with rage, and if others are fierce, it will only be more ruthless!

The shadow ghost once again started the game of exchanging injuries for injuries, although the health value slipped quickly compared to the ghost, but after all, the health bar advantage was here, and after a wave of crazy injuries, in the end, the ghost ran out of health first, and in extreme unwillingness, he fell to the ground with a wail and turned into a wriggling soul.

However, at this time, the situation of the shadow ghost is also quite bad, and in the end, it narrowly wins, but it only has its last breath left, its size is significantly reduced, and its spirit is also a lot weaker.

With the last of his strength, the Shadow Ghost stepped forward and picked up the piece of soul containing a huge amount of energy and swallowed it in his mouth. As soon as the soul enters its mouth, it seems to be asleep after eating, and its movements become more sluggish.

Mu You saw this situation, and without the slightest hesitation, a teleportation shifted to the back of the shadow ghost, and the sealing box was quickly deducted.

By this time, Vivien had already grasped the pocket watch in the distance, and would help him rewind time if he made a mistake in sealing.

However, it turned out that the weak shadow ghost at this moment no longer had the strength to resist, and was successfully sealed into the box by Mu You's quick eyes once.

Mu You raised the box and looked at it, and the shadow ghost who entered the box did not hit the box as violently as before to escape, but shrank in a corner, motionless, and seemed to fall into a deep sleep.

"Isn't it broken......

Mu You was a little worried about the state of the shadow ghost, but he didn't have time to take a closer look at it at this time, there were still a bunch of ghosts waiting for him to deal with in front of him.

Putting away the shadow ghost box, Mu You teleported back behind Willy, and Vivien automatically flew back to his shoulder.

The lamppost was Willy's refuge, and just as the Earthbound spirits couldn't go too far from their death, Willier couldn't leave the lamppost either, or the souls would dissipate at a breakneck speed.

For example, at this time, Willy forcibly broke through the lamppost, and his soul had become obviously blurred, looming, and seemed to be able to completely dissipate at any time.

"Captain!"

Seeing that Victor, who led them in rebellion, was killed, and the former captain appeared in front of them, all the pirate ghosts present suddenly lost their will to fight, and one by one they dropped their swords, fell to their knees, wailed and wept bitterly, and prayed that the captain would forgive them for their past mistakes and give them peace of mind.

All things have spirits, and the sinking of the Ghost seven hundred years ago was not caused by someone's mistake, but the Ghost itself, which took them into this devil's sea. As one of the most famous pirate ships on the seas for thousands of years, the Ghost naturally has its own ship spirit.

They betrayed the captain and took the Wraith, thinking that everything would be fine, only to find that they still couldn't subdue the ship's spirit.

In the end, at the cost of crashing into itself, the Phantom also had more than 400 betrayers buried with its captain, and from then on buried at the bottom of the sea, and its soul was tortured for eternity.

Confined in this dark place for more than 700 years, they have long been wiped out of their anger and smoothed out their edges and corners, and now the only emotions left are regret and guilt.

"Don't call me Captain again!"

Willy spoke, his voice already staccato and staccatoar, but he still insisted on finishing his last words: "I have already promised others that whoever helps me avenge me will take ownership of the Ghost!" From now on, he is the captain of the Spectre, and your fate will be judged by this new captain! ”

Willy pointed to Mu You beside him and announced the delivery of the captain's identity.

At the same time, a hint sounded in Mu You's mind.

[The hidden mission 'Willy's Hatred' has been completed, and Ling has been approved by the Ghost Ship Spirit to become the new owner of the Ghost.] You've been given supreme control over the Wraith, allowing you to add and remove any boarding staff at any time, as well as setting the Wraith's route at any time. 】

"It's finally done......"

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief, he encountered a lot of twists and turns in the process, but fortunately, he completed this large-scale task relatively smoothly in the end. Compared to this last reward, all the previous efforts are worth it.

Willy was relieved and reluctant to glance at the broken Ghost in the distance, and then looked at Mu You.

"It's a good ship, I hope you can fix it, and remember to maintain it from time to time in the future, and the Ghost will not let you down when it sails in the sea......

Leaving this last word, Willy smiled with relief, and completely dissipated into a point of light.

In the bay, only Mu You and more than 300 ghost pirates in front of him were left at this moment.

All the pirates were still kneeling on the ground, looking at Mu You worriedly.

The place of their death was on the Wraith, so strictly speaking, they were not trapped at the bottom of the sea, but on the ship, and could not go too far from the Wraith.

The reason why this space was built to protect the ship as much as possible is to have a chance to sail the ship out and let them see the light of day one day.

But at this moment, fate is in the hands of someone else.

Now that the stranger is the captain of the Ghost, he can leave all the bones on board at any time and leave with the ship, when the time comes, they will be imprisoned at the bottom of the sea for eternity, and they will continue to suffer endless torture.

At this moment, all the ghosts were looking at Mu You in horror and apprehension, waiting for his verdict.

Mu You looked at the group of kneeling ghosts in front of him, pondered for a moment, and then spoke: "Ten years...... Everyone, ten years of service on the Wraith, I will forgive you for your sin of betrayal and give you freedom. ”

Ten years, this is Mu You's condition after careful consideration, this time is easy for the ghosts to accept, and for himself, after ten years, he no longer needs the help of a group of ghost crews.

At that time, he no longer cares whether these ghosts want to rest and reincarnate in peace, or whether they want to be free and continue to live in the world as free ghosts.

When the ghosts below heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, as Mu You expected, they could accept this condition.

Although they were not directly freed, they could at least leave the dark seabed. And, compared to the 700 years of suffering they have experienced, what is a mere ten years?

"I agree."

"I agree!"

"It's only been a decade......"

"Agree ......"

……

One by one, the pirates spoke, and their voices quickly joined together.

Until confirming that all the ghosts agreed, Mu You took out the blood pact scroll that he had snatched from the goblins earlier.

"If you agree, sign this contract."

Mu You took out the quill pen and wrote the terms on the contract. The conditions were simple, within ten years from today, the Ghost crew would be at his disposal, and after ten years of dedicated work on the Ghost, he promised to give them back their freedom.

None of them hesitated about the contract ghosts, and with this kind of guarantee, they could rest assured that they would not be betrayed, and at this time, they all rushed over and injected a trace of their soul into the scroll as a proof of signing the contract.

After waiting for all the ghosts to complete the contract, Mu You can be regarded as completely taking over the total of three hundred and twelve ghost crews, and now the ghost is about to become a veritable 'ghost ship'.

Mu You had time to approach the giant ship over there, and walked into the cabin to check through the broken hull.

After years in the sand, the water in the cabin has long been emptied, but it still can't avoid the smell of decay and decay, rust and dirt growing everywhere on the hull.

On the deck and in the major cabins, there were piles of white bones of the crew everywhere.

The ghosts followed Mu You and poured into the hull of the ship, one by one hurriedly found their bones, and drilled into them, and then one by one the skeletons seemed to be alive, getting up from the ground, and in a sound of bone collision, a group of skeletons lined up loosely in front of Mu You.

"Captain, please tell me, what needs to be done next?" One of the skeletons speaks on behalf of the ghosts.

Mu You pondered for a moment and asked, "Is the ship repairer there?" ”

"In!"

A skeleton hurriedly squeezed away from the other skeletons and walked out of the team and came to Mu You.

"How is this ship going to be repaired?" Mu You asked. The ship was so badly damaged that it was broken in two from the middle, and it definitely couldn't be pulled out directly to sail.

"Captain, the damage of the Ghost is easy to deal with, you can find some scrap materials, we can repair it as before, the most troublesome thing is the main hull, now we need a strong enough divine wood to repair the broken keel." Said the ship repairer skeleton.

"Shenmu ......"

Mu You frowned. The divine wood mentioned by the other party does not refer to a specific wood, but to a magic tree whose quality has reached a certain degree of cherishment, but where is such wood so easy to find.

Let's go back and figure it out......

Mu You shook his head and glanced at the time, it was already nine twenty in the evening at this moment, and it was almost time to close the door, and this matter would definitely not be dealt with today.

"Is there any treasure on board?" Mu You looked at the skeletons again and asked.

"Yes, of course!"

The ghosts hurriedly led Mu into the treasure room at the bottom of the ship.

In this small room, there are a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, but when you look around, they are all ordinary collectibles, and many of them have become rusty and lost their due luster under the perennial yin corrosion.

This kind of ordinary treasure is not attractive to Mu You, what he needs is magic props.

After rummaging through the treasure, he found only two gems that could be called magical items.

[Blood Gem: Installed in the equipment slot, it can make the equipment have the effect of automatically restoring health, restoring one health point per second.] 】

[Constitution Gem: Installed in the equipment slot, adds 5 Constitution points to the person wearing this equipment.] 】

The effects are not bad, one adds attributes, one automatically returns to life, and it is a permanent effect, unlike potions that have a time limit for the number of times they can be used, and the gems will not be worn out after loading, and they can take effect for a long time.

"Anything else?" Putting away the two gems, Mu You looked at the skeletons again.

"I know, there is also a treasure chest, the captain's most cherished treasure chest, which we usually don't let touch!" One of the skeletons said.

"Where?" Mu You asked hurriedly.

"In the captain's room!"

Then Mu You followed the skeleton to the so-called captain's room, and sure enough, he quickly found a magic treasure chest in it.

This box itself is also a treasure of not low grade, blessed with a high-grade magic lock, and the probability of unlocking is less than 0.1%.

Mu You used the lock heart hole to open it, and it took more than 900 times to finally open the box.

When opened, the large chest contained only three items: a token, a compass, and a scepter.

Mu You first picked up the token and looked at it.

[Waterway Pass: A thousand years ago, the royal family of the Lanel Empire issued a pass token for Sir Willy, which can pass through the major magic passes within the empire unimpeded, and expire after robbing the country's merchant ships. 】

Pass?

Mu You was stunned, and what surprised him was that this thing was actually issued by the royal family, and Willy, the big pirate leader, was actually a 'knight'?

In other words, the existence of this group of pirates is recognized by the empire, and there are still some interests related to the royal family.

It is not allowed to rob the country's merchant ships, but there are no restrictions on the ships of other countries. This means that the Empire actually encourages pirates to rob other countries' ships, and everyone divides the money, in short: robbery by order! It is precisely under this entanglement of interests that pirates can get this privileged pass.

This stuff is pretty good!

Mu You nodded, with this, you can drive a boat in the imperial waterways in the future, maybe you can do some water transportation industry or something, isn't this much safer than going overseas to be a pirate and rob?

Moreover, with this underwater passage, Mu You no longer has to worry about how to get to the imperial capital.

He can even carry a boatload of players and break through the underground river channel of the imperial capital, and if the timing is right, he may have a chance to steal a tower or something......

Putting away the token, Mu You looked at the remaining two things.

[Compass of Destiny: A magical compass that will always point to the place where your heart desires strongly.] Applies only when in the sea and on the Wraith. 】

[Sea Breeze Scepter: Let the wind blow from behind you forever.] Valid only in the sea. 】

Both of these seem to be artifacts made for sailing, a scepter that can keep the wind down forever, and a compass that can point to the place where you want to go, and never get lost in the sea, both of which are absolutely rare treasures for any navigator, and it's no wonder that they are deliberately sealed in treasure chests.

Mu You took the compass and looked at it, the needle of the compass kept turning in circles, and he couldn't stop.

This is because he does not have a specific sailing goal in mind at this time.

After thinking about it, Mu You silently recited the name of the imperial capital in his heart, and hinted that he urgently needed to go there next.

The compass needle immediately stopped, and it was firmly in a certain direction.

"Good stuff."

Mu You nodded with satisfaction and put away the three things. He then stepped out of the ship and set up a dark teleportation array in the nearby sand.

The time had come to nine-forty, and it was time for him to go back.

After telling the ghosts to help him guard the teleportation array, he will come back in the near future, Mu You stepped into the teleportation array.

However, instead of going straight back to the northern snowfield, he went outside Sunset City to see how the fishing nets were harvested.

After a whirlwind as usual, Mu You reappeared at the bottom of the sea.

It was late at night, and it was dark outside, so Mu You swam ashore, stepped over the reef with a lantern, and found the buoy of the fishing net.

Putting down the jack-o'-lantern, Mu You stepped forward and pulled the fishing net, and the weight of his hand surprised and delighted.

Happily, the fishing nets have finally caught something this time.

The surprise is ...... Why is it so heavy?

Mu You laboriously pulled out the fishing net, only to find that what was shrouded in the net pocket at this time was actually a mermaid covered with colored scales.

This mermaid is only less than a meter long, with pale cyan skin, gills on its neck, webbed hands, a row of fangs in its mouth faintly visible, and its hair wriggling in the air like a living snake.

The mermaid itself is curled up at the bottom of the net at this time, sleeping unconscious, and there are obvious bait residues left at the corners of the mouth.
