"These fool's gold can be used as alchemy as medicine, that deep-sea blood coral is almost meaningless, and there is a curse on it, as for this ruby ghost ring, you have been deceived.

There's no magic in this thing.

Nothing but pretty. ”

In the bamboo building of the Turtle Island Pier, Konstantin was crouching on a large pile of magical items that had been dumped on the ground.

These are all things that Mason and the Kite Man have brought back from Barbossa's treasury, and they are in dire need of a master appraiser to sort them into categories.

Mason was busy using enchantment techniques to process the crafting materials he had just gotten, and he didn't want to waste time identifying the crafting skills he was concentrating on, so the job was handed over to the dark wizard Zakang.

However, Zakang's vision is not perfect.

"Fool, you don't know what the real treasure is."

Catwoman swept the ring that Zakang had dropped with her whip, held it in her hand and looked at it with a look of obsession, and then put the jeweled ring the size of a pigeon's egg on her finger.

Her other nine fingers were already covered with all sorts of luxury jewelry, and she wore several jeweled necklaces around her neck.

There are even two women's crowns in her hair, one large and one small.

It's like a moving jewelry showcase.

Selena was immersed in the double satisfaction of being a great thief and being a woman, and she looked at the gorgeous ornaments on her hand with confused eyes, and said in a long and elongated voice:

"These cuties remind me of how my suitors feel when they give me gifts, and while it's fascinating to watch the light reflected in them, it's a bit of a shame to think that they come from giving rather than sweating and getting them with your own hands.

I'm as passionate about jewelry as all women are.

But I actually enjoy the thrill and pleasure of collecting them by hand. ”

"This is easy to do!"

Zakang got up, snapped his fingers with a cigarette in his mouth.

The green fluorescence quickly poured out and covered Selena's body with a bewildered face, but in the blink of an eye, all the jewels on her body were gone.

Catwoman-sama glared at Zakang, who spat out a smoke ring and said with a wicked smile:

"I've thrown all the jewels that make you feel sorry all over the world. Now, Selena, you can enjoy the joy of bringing the 'cuties' back from a world full of zombies. ”

"Wow"

The Eagle of Sujay shone with a cold light from its sheath, slashing at the smirking Dark Mage as Catwoman screamed her teeth.

"Quiet! You're bothering me with the materials. ”

Mason, who was busy at the workbench, turned around and shouted.

The young man, who aspires to be a good all-professional master, has developed the habit of being very focused when working, and he glanced at the angry catwoman and soothed:

"If the jewels are gone, Selena. That was only the most insignificant part of all the gains we would get, and Jack and Angelina had already gone to contact the Royal Fleet emissary anchored nearby.

The Pirate Kings will also be coming to Turtle Island one after another.

You're responsible for the rest of your contact with them, and you can see from Barbossa's reaction that our vaccines can be exchanged for anything you want in this world!

I think as a jewelry thief, you should probably be a little more ambitious.

For example, take the mountain of light in the crown of the British king..."

Mason shook his head, ignoring Selena's already terrifying eyes, and continued to work on the materials he had at hand.

With his left hand, he clasped a piece of fine-quality magic ore and smelted it with magic fire, and instructed:

"In addition to the list of supplies that Team K must gather, I can allow you to make additional requests to those who want to buy them to satisfy your personal 'little hobbies'.

Anyway, negotiate terms with these forces as soon as possible, and then we will go back to Gotham.

Stealing enough vaccines from under Batman's nose is no easy task, and it's a goal that requires K-Team to work together to achieve.

In the first step of the harvest season, we need at least a million vaccines.

The first phase of sustained exploitation of the world's potential must be so much. ”

"I'll go get ready."

Catwoman happily took the sword off Zakkang's neck and left the bamboo building with the anticipation of the imminent harvest, while the black mage pursed his lips and opened the devil's chest in the corner.

The pile of cursed gold coins inside lit up Konstantin's eyes, and he turned back to Mason and said:

"I said before, these gold coins belong to me."

"No one is robbing you, but you don't need that much."

His Excellency the Captain kept the smelted magic metal in his hand for later use, and replied without raising his head:

"You can take 300 to enhance your magic, and if you don't have enough, apply for it, and I'm going to use the rest to craft some cursed bullets and weapons, which are very rare crafting materials."

"300 is enough, but Mason, the curses on these coins are troublesome, and you may need some special skill to craft items with them."

Za Kang picked up a cigarette and covered his fingers with magic power, grabbed a handful of yellow, orange and orange gold coins, tossed them up and down in his hand, and said:

"Their value lies in the curse attached to them, and if these resentments are purified, then these gold coins are worthless."

"Thanks for the reminder, I'll figure it out."

Mason nodded and said no more, and the Dark Mage looked at the time and it was a pleasant time of the day again.

He hummed a song and went out to hang out in the island's bars, hoping that he would meet a sad lady with a complicated past in that medieval tavern today, so that he could have a chance to soothe her soul and body.

Konstantin was a prodigal son who was very pleased with himself.

He never misses a chance encounter, and he learns magic only by God's talent for food, and he doesn't have to make things over and over again to master more advanced skills like Mason.

Mason was the only one left in the bamboo building, but the young man enjoyed it.

Humming a fast-paced local ballad, he opened Old K's alchemy book in front of him and lit the magic cauldron with magic fire, and then followed the instructions on the alchemy book to skillfully add enchanted materials to it.

Today, he's going to try his hand at making a downgraded version of the high-grade vitality potion "Brown Owl" used by the witchers.

The main reason is that there is not enough time to cause Mason to hardly sleep during this time, and when he is tired, he drinks a bottle of energy potion, and he drinks too much in a short period of time, causing him to seem to have some kind of "drug resistance".

Low-level vitality potions are getting worse and worse against Mason.

The best thing to do in this situation is to pause the use of the potion and resume your normal routine and adjust it, and after a while, the potion will take effect again.

But Mason didn't want to waste time.

He had too much to do now, so in the face of the gradual failure of low-level potions, he chose a simpler and more brutal way, using high-grade potions to suppress his "resistance".

After unlocking the talent of [Eye Disease and Quick Hand], Mason rarely made mistakes in the alchemy process, and now that he has obtained enough materials from Turtle Island, he feels that he can challenge the high difficulty.

Everything went smoothly.

With the blessing of the extrasensory senses, which seemed to slow down time, Mason nodded in satisfaction as he watched the yellow spider venom that began to boil and emit a strange smell in the magic cauldron.

While continuing to stir with the special gold stick, he picked up the enchanted verbena and threw it into it, and took out a bottle of strong rum from his hand and bit the stopper.

He was not an alcoholic.

But spirits are one of the ingredients for this potion, and in fact all witchers need to use spirits in their medicines, and the higher the alcohol content, the better, and I don't know if this is tradition?

Or are those witchers just trying to get drunk in between desperate fights with monsters?

But at this time, Mason yawned strangely, as if there was a sudden sleepiness enveloping his mind, and he didn't know if it was an illusion, and there was a clear sound of the sea lapping in his ears.

He shook his head, kept himself awake and poured the liquor into the boiling cauldron, biting his lip to increase the intensity of the demonic fire burning on his fingers.

But the sleepiness in the body is getting stronger and stronger.

After a dozen seconds, when the liquid in the crucible turned a yellow-brown goo, Mason couldn't hold on any longer, and his head slammed against the workbench with a crooked thud.

Almost instantly, he began to snore.

The speed of falling asleep is unbelievably fast, but Mason's spirit is strangely awake even after his body has fallen asleep.

As if out of his body, he looked blankly at himself lying on the workbench and snoring, and tried to reach out to wake up the crappy alchemist.

"Hey! The potion is going to be overcooked! You idiot! Get up! ”

He slapped his head, but his outstretched hand flashed through his skull.

"You should know you're in a lucid dream right now, right? Mason Cooper, a mysterious visitor from an exotic land. ”

A deep voice rang out behind Mason, causing the young man to jerk back. Then he saw the door on the second floor of the bamboo building being pushed open, and a tall, handsome black-haired pirate captain strode with a sword.

He wears a gray-green pirate hat and a worn cloak from the voyage.

Two flintlock pistols were stuck in a cowhide belt around his waist, the standard pirate attire, but Mason noticed the distinctive insignia on his belt.

It was the miniature emblem of a vessel entwined with the tentacles of an octopus.

It is known to all pirates and sailors who have survived the first year of their careers on this sea.

"The Flying Dutchman? The cursed ghost ship? ”

Mason looked at the young man in front of him in surprise but revealed a vicissitudes of life, he blinked and said:

"All the pirates are saying that 'Sea Devil' David Jones is dead, so, are you Will Turner, the new captain of that ghost ship? I heard you've been on that ship for more than a decade? ”

"Exactly down there."

The captain of the ghost ship bowed down politely to Mason and gave a classic hat salute.

"You pulled me into a dream? Why? ”

Mason felt that the guy in front of him had no malicious intent, and he couldn't make an effective counterattack in the dream, so he could only ask, and Mr. Will didn't waste time in greetings.

He used the power of the ghost ship to pull Mason into his dreams, not to talk.

"The Dutchman is near Turtle Island, but I can't go ashore so I'll have to talk to you that way, Mason."

Captain Will leaned on his pirate sword and said:

"I have seen with my own eyes how you miraculously left and re-entered this world, Your Excellency, and that is why I have come to you.

I want you to take my wife and son and take them away forever from this doomed world. ”

"This request is unsurprising."

Mason nodded and said calmly:

"I knew you were here for this when I guessed who you were, but the question is why? Will, can I call you Will? ”

Captain Ghost nodded, motioning for Mason to continue with his question.

The young man organized his language and whispered:

"Since you've been using the powers of the ghost ship to observe me, you should know that today I gave Barbossa the medicine that could prevent the Black Death and ghouls.

I don't hide it from you, Will.

I could get a lot of them, enough to give to every survivor left in the world.

With these medicines, they can't rebuild their civilization immediately, but after they are enough to resist the ravages of the virus, they can also try to rely on the ocean to regain the occupied continent little by little.

This process may take decades, if not centuries, but I believe that one day you will be able to return to the place where you were born.

I think you already have hope.

So, why do you want me to take your wife and children out of this world forever?

This is not something that a responsible husband and father would do.

You don't even know what kind of person I am, and you still entrust me with such a task, which means that you are either tormented and mad by the curse of the ghost ship.

Or you're in despair. ”

Mason voiced his guess as he looked at Captain Will in front of him and said:

"Do you know something? Will, can you tell me? ”

"I can't say."

Will shook his head, pointed to his heart, and said:

"I made a pact with the Devil's Hell and the Sea God, and I walked at the intersection of the worlds of the living and the dead, which allowed me to see things that ordinary people could not see.

There are even silhouettes of the future that can be seen in the occasional glimpse.

All I can tell you is, Mason.

Your medicine is magical, but it can't change the end of this world, everything is predestined. The sudden Black Death was just a sign of the end of the world...

Even without it, the world wouldn't be alive for long. ”

Captain Ghost paused, gesturing at himself and Mason's eyes, his tone calm as if he had accepted everything.

He said:

"If you're lucky, Mason, you'll see it with your own eyes. At that point, you will understand that there is no point in struggling or complying.

The end is there.

And it will definitely come. ”

"You're like a madman with major depression and misanthropy!"

Mason hates this "Riddler" tone.

He stared at Captain Will and said in an accentuated voice:

"If you want me to take your wife and children and take care of them, then you'll have to tell me what I want to know, Will! Don't fool me with these poetic expressions.

The least you have to tell me is who spread the zombie virus in this world?

You are a messenger who walks in the world and in hell, you observe the world, and you know the answer!

Tell me! ”

Will Turner didn't answer right away.

The cursed man, who had remained in his human form in his dreams, looked at Mason with a rather strange gaze, until the young man was uncomfortable with his gaze, Will stepped forward and grabbed Mason's left hand and pulled the sleeve up.

He looked at the tattoo on Mason's arm and reached out to grab the cat school badge that Mason was hanging around his neck.

Will looked at the thing and whispered:

"A guy called 'Old K'. You are from the same force as him, and you have the same tattoos. I also talked to him in my dreams, Mason, and he refused my request.

I also questioned him as you questioned me, and what I said to you just now is the answer that Old K once gave me.

It's your organization that spreads poison in this world!

If I had a choice, I would have dragged you to the bottom of the sea and drowned when you and your teammates entered this world, and begged me to give you a painful pleasure after you and your teammates had to endure the most painful torture in the world! ”

Captain Ghost's cold fingers touched Mason's neck, sending shivers down the young man's side, but in the next moment, Will's tone changed suddenly.

He sighed with a low sadness.

Say:

"Unfortunately, I don't have a choice. I can only pray to you, as I prayed to Old K, to take away my beloved Elizabeth and Henry, and for this, I can give you the wealth of the whole world!

But you've got to make a decision quickly, Mason.

Every second you hesitate, the end of your creeping march in the abyss.

Actually, I knew what you wanted to do from the time you named that drug 'Hope', and you do have a warm and kind heart, young man. ”

Captain Will patted Mason on the shoulder and whispered:

"Thank you for all you did for us, but, it's too late."
