Chapter 8 Bansi Port (Second Update, Asking for Tickets~)
Crane stood in the captain's room and looked at the charts laid out on the table in front of him, on which Crane had drawn a set route.
After tonight, it's January 1350. Klein prepares to take advantage of the New Year's opportunity to travel to the Southern Continent and the seas, on the one hand, to find the extraordinary materials he needs, and on the other hand, to hunt down Ince. Zangwill and the "Superstar Juggernaut" who entered Earth.
As for the part of himself trapped in the gray fog that belongs to the will of the fallen mother goddess, Crane still has a wait-and-see attitude in his heart. In the diary of Russell collected before, there are many places that make him feel the evil and terrible of the fallen mother goddess. Even if the fallen mother goddess really helped herself, she can't take it lightly.
After all, during Klein's investigation, he seriously suspected that the reason why his good fellow Huang Tao had not been successfully resurrected until now was the fallen mother goddess.
And during this time, Klein has also figured out what extraordinary characteristics the "Lost Country" is made of.
Aside from the "Arcane" perk that made the door, the Lost Country itself uses a Sequence 4 "Black Knight" trait provided by the real Creator. It is also because of this that it also has the ability to incarnate shadows and herd, which can be regarded as an enhanced version of "Wriggling Hunger".
But at the same cost, the "Lost Country", which was given the living characteristics by the true creator, in order to carry the complete demigod characteristics, its size is unusually large compared to other magical items, and it also loses the ability to travel through the spirit world like the "Black Emperor".
But overall, if the "Lost Country" can have the opportunity to herd a demigod-level "secret mage" in the future, then Crane may be able to give the "Lost Country" the extraordinary ability to travel through the spirit world. If he had this ability, then when he was hunted down, he would not have to rely only on the "arbitrary door" embedded in the captain's room to leave the "Lost Country".
The Arbitrary Gate refers to the door that leads to the small world that Gao Wei created last night. But in fact, it is a small world, and in fact, the specific size is only the size of a house. Gao Wei deliberately created that world to protect Klein's two most important anchors in this world, Benson and Melissa.
Only the "Veil World", which is directly attached to the material world and has essentia as a shelter, can allow the two siblings to hide from Amun's tracking.
Otherwise, according to Amon's person, with just one divination, the two brothers and sisters would appear directly in Amon's sight, and then they would like to mention two monocles.
Crane's purpose was to be located on Bansey Island, which was around the Furious Sea, and before setting off from Dalia Island, it took a long time to make a big circle in order to get rid of the military's pursuers - after all, the "Lost Country" was too mobile when it was first launched, and it was hard not to be noticed.
And after a day and a night of sailing, the ghost ship "Lost Country" finally arrived. The main reason for coming to Ban West Port was simply because Klein's ship was short of supplies and needed to make some simple purchases of goods locally, and Klein happened to need to make a move in the direction of Dainos Island and Gargas Island, and this route was Ban West Port was the closest supply option.
This is because, when he left the Church of the Night in Beckland, Archbishop Anthony had mentioned to him that there would be mermaids in these two places. These mermaids are all devotees of the goddess of the night, and they obviously do not refuse to sing a song for Klein, who is the goddess of the night.
This is the convenience brought by the identity of the god favorite, if you want to change to an ordinary "faceling" and want to be promoted to the secret puppet master, you can only continue to the east, go to the ruins of the god war to find a way to find the mermaid. The higher you are promoted, the more difficult it becomes......
Crane sighed faintly and drew a tick with the pen in his hand on Bansey Island next to him. His plan was to finish the resupply at Ban Si Gang and then continue the voyage in a southeasterly direction. Cross the island of Tiyana directly into the surroundings of the Rorsted Islands.
There are often many pirates roaming the area. Crane is here because he can kill these pirates in exchange for a bounty, and because he can also use this chaotic place to play as a Faceling and completely digest the Faceling's potion.
After digesting it, he could go directly to the Sleeping Chapel on the island of Dinos, which belonged to the Church of the Night, to complete his promotion directly. Of course, here in the Rorsted Islands he can also get more information about Ince. Message from Zangwill and the mysterious queen.
And the reason why Crane is interested in the mysterious queen is not only because of the mission issued by the Night Church to chase the evil god, but also because the mysterious queen Bernadette Gustav is also the eldest daughter left by his hometown Huang Tao in this world, and he and Bernadette may have the same interests in terms of finding Russell.
And the key thing is that now that Klein has settled down, he can't help but feel that when he killed Mr. X before, the phantoms that forced Mr. X to retreat around him were created by Bernadette.
Although Klein didn't see it directly at the time, through the psychic divination that followed, the more he looked at those things, the more they looked like the fairy tales that appeared in Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales.
Crane couldn't think of anyone other than a certain time-traveler senior who would know about these things and spread them around.
Klein tapped the table in front of him with his fingers, and through the darkness of the night, Crane used his will to suppress the ghostly green flames that kept coming out of the ghost ship, causing the ghost ship to approach Bansey Harbor like a dark shadow.
I remember that the red-haired young man who was very close to Lao Gao and suspected of being the "Angel of War" Medici at the Aurora Club mentioned that Bansi Harbor might be a little risky during a casual conversation...... Alas, hopefully nothing will happen this time.
Crane mobilized the gray mist that could be driven in advance because of the crystal ball-type magical item that Gao Wei gave him to envelop the finger area of his right hand, which was the maximum gray mist he could mobilize at this stage, and when he was promoted to the fifth sequence, he should be able to further expand these gray mist, so that the gray mist could shelter itself in the real world to a certain extent.
With a flick of his right hand, a gold coin bounced into the air under the gray mist, and then was caught by Crane as it fell. In the case of this gold coin shrouded in gray mist, it is basically equivalent to Crane's divination on the Source Castle, with the person of the Source Castle as a support, Crane's divination at this moment will hardly be unexpected.
He looked up and saw that the head on the coin shimmered eerily in the glow of a faint green candle.
The coin was glowing with a terrifying glow of dark green flames, like a rumored cursed coin.
There is danger, but I don't know exactly how dangerous it is...... I'm now going straight to the gray mist and using the pendulum for divination!
Klein immediately made a judgment, opened his mouth and said, giving the order to the ship:
"Lock down the captain's room."
As Crane's words fell, shadows surged up on the door of the captain's quarters, and these shadows squirmed rapidly, quickly sealing the entire captain's quarter, separating the inside from the outside. Under the influence of extraordinary properties, these shadows act as a spiritual wall.
It's so useful, although there is no oil found in this world, and there are many industrial products in this world that cannot be made smoothly. But with the ability of extraordinary characteristics, maybe a different civilization can really develop here......
Klein secretly admired, and couldn't help but sigh at the convenience and practicality of extraordinary items.
He took four backward steps and entered the source fort. Memories flooded back, and Klein's brow furrowed a little. He suddenly remembered what the danger that might be here was. He hesitated slightly, then reached out and picked up the crystal ball next to him.
Rather than the calamities that might come his way, Klein felt that he could use the knowledge of professionals to help him resist the dangers that might come next.
With the help of this crystal ball, he mobilized the power of the source fort on a large scale, built layers of "city walls" in front of him, and built quite adequate protection for himself.
After a little uneasy shrouded his head with a gray mist, he stretched out his right hand and slowly removed the seal on the seat engraved with the "Mother" pattern.
That's the seat sealed with the "Fallen Mother Goddess"!
The black mist squirmed, and as the gray mist dissipated, the black curses that had been transformed into mist re-solidified here, forming tentacle-like things.
The tentacles intertwined with each other and transformed into a woman with a high resemblance to the one in MariΔ's previous portrait. Unlike "Sharon", the girl appears to be younger, with inky black hair and crimson eyes.
These eyes are like a beautiful and alluring crimson moon, and even with the protection of the Source Castle, Crane almost indulges in it. It seems to be the first impulse of human beings, the instinct of reproduction.
It's horrible...... If I had been seduced by Him, perhaps the desire to reproduce in my heart would have been magnified - the Fallen Mother Goddess had such authority...... Crane used his willpower to force his head away, turning his gaze to the side. He looked at the fallen Mother Goddess in front of him, and pondered what he was going to say next.
"Long time no see, Mother Goddess."
"Long time no see, Crane." The Fallen Mother Goddess spoke softly, and there was tenderness in her tone: "You seem to have used up a chance to resurrect before, huh...... It's a good thing it wasn't Amon who killed you, otherwise it wouldn't be you standing in front of me now. β
The Fallen Mother Goddess looked at Crane in front of her and said.
"Amon?" Crane opened his mouth with some confusion, he didn't expect the Fallen Mother Goddess to say this.
"He is the 'thief', the 'Trojan horse' of fate. You should be able to know what this word means. The Fallen Mother Goddess chuckled: "His personality is the same as that of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun, if you are killed by Amun, then everything you have will be stolen by Him and held in the palm of your hand." β
"For the King of Angels under the Source Castle, the resurrection given to you by Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun can't really let you escape the fate of death, and Amon has too many ways to steal the 'Source Castle'."
This, this is the Angel of Time, the "blasphemer" Amun? No wonder He was called the "Blasphemer...... Crane's mouth was half-open, and he couldn't help but be glad that he had been killed by Panatia. He was silent for a moment, calmed his mind a little, and looked at the fallen mother goddess beside him:
"Do you think I can stay in Bansey? From my previous sealed memories, it may have been sealed with something related to essentia, or contaminated with essentia. β
"Essentia can't fully penetrate the real world now, otherwise I would have regained all my strength long ago." The Fallen Mother Goddess smiled gently, but there was a hint of disdain in her tone:
"I don't know which essentia exists here, but you can trust the seal of the Heavenly Venerable."
Tianzun? Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun? The essentia was sealed by Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun? Doesn't that mean that He has indirectly sealed the power of nine, nay, ten old days? Is the strength of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun really so different from ordinary old days?
The Fallen Mother Goddess saw Klein's thoughts, and a smile appeared on her face:
"Not really."
"Although the strength of the pillars is enough to crush most of the old days, the circumstances at that time were exceptional, and we were brought together in the first place. Moreover, at that time, Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun took the lead and contained more than one essentia. It is precisely in this way that Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun will make other old days so jealous. β
"I see...... Klein thought something through and nodded slightly. He looked at the fallen mother goddess opposite him and couldn't help asking:
"Tianzun's consciousness is still hidden in the Source Castle?"
"It's getting weaker now."
"Of course, our will will last forever, and no matter how weak we are, it will not disappear completely." A smile appeared on the face of the fallen mother goddess, and she answered all questions: "We are different sides of the beginning, and inheriting essentia is equivalent to inheriting the old days." β
Maybe you can test whether the anchor will have an effect on the gods of the old level when you have a chance in the future...... If I use many wills to divide the influence of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun on me, can it make it easier for me to be promoted, no, this is not necessarily......
Perhaps the role of the law is to play the original owner of the Source Castle, that Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun...... That's why you're just playing......
ββ¦β¦ Thank you. β
Crane looked at the Fallen Mother Goddess and nodded solemnly. A smile appeared on the face of the Fallen Mother Goddess, only to find that her will was blocked by the Source Fort again. He furrowed his eyebrows, then relaxed.
He believed that after a while, Crane would have faith in himself. In fact, now he could see that Crane had faith in himself.
Crane let out a sigh of relief, and he prepared to hurry up and leave Bansey Harbor after finishing his supplies.
As for unleashing the will of the fallen Mother Goddess? Klein wouldn't do that kind of death-seeking thing.
