Chapter 10: The Red Skulls Pirates
Is there a problem with the bishop of the Storm Church? Leonard's first reaction was to be unbelievable, the bishops of the Storm Church have problems, so who else here has no problems? But he also listened to Klein's words and didn't say anything.
Marić, who sat on the side, kept the good tradition of the "prisoner" route, sitting there motionless.
"So what should we do?"
Leonard lowered his voice and said to Klein beside him, "Do we need to deal with this side of things?" ”
"Let's leave first to prevent a more dangerous situation." Crane said quietly to Leonard beside him.
"Once we're out of here, we'll go find the church's liaison and ask him to send a telegram to the Storm Church elsewhere."
"Okay."
Leonard sat back down, having a high resistance to staying up late, as a former "sleeper".
Of course, a man surnamed Zhou is also able to stay up late, thanks to the exercise before he crossed.
In the midst of anxious waiting, time passed quickly. When the sun rises, the port of Bansi suddenly has the breath of living life again, and the residents walk out with smiles on their faces to meet the golden sunshine, as if looking forward to a new day.
But this scene was extremely cold in the eyes of the three people who were sitting, which formed a strong contrast with the strange situation last night!
Klein stood up, looked at Bishop Miller, who was walking towards him, and nodded lightly at him:
"Good day, Your Excellency."
"You're welcome." A slight smile appeared on Bishop Miller's face, "I've already prepared the supplies you need. ”
"Okay, I'm sorry for you." A business smile also bloomed on Klein's face, and he commanded Marich beside him:
"You go and bring the crew back to the ship."
Marić responded and quickly ran outside. After handing over the money needed to collect the supplies to the Storm Church here, Crane quickly left with Leonard.
By the glimmer of the morning, the "Lost Country" disguised itself as an ordinary ship and slowly sailed into the distance. It wasn't until the three of them couldn't see the coastline that the "Lost Country" opened up with full firepower and showed its true appearance.
It turned into a pitch-black shadow, and the hull of the ship burned with a dark green flame. Klein looked at Bansey Harbor, which was fading away in the distance, and a relaxed look slowly appeared on his face.
"Where are we going next, Captain Sparrow?" After assigning a task to his living corpse, Marić asked Klein in a low voice when he had changed back into a captain's suit in front of him.
Klein was silent for a moment, he narrowed his lips and spat out a few words faintly:
"Byam."
"......" Marić nodded silently, not asking his captain why he wanted to go to Byam. Since you are a sailor, don't have too many personal claims. He didn't need to ask his captain what he was going to do in Byam, he just had to follow his captain.
Of course, while following his captain, he will also prepare to do his own thing.
…………
Southern Continent, Star Plateau.
Gao Wei. Augustus stood grimly on the slightly hot earth, followed by Bethel in some disguise.
Now Gao Wei is like an exiled prince, his face is full of unwillingness to his situation. Bethel stood aside, silently following the outer god, while sighing at the excellent acting skills of the outer god.
As early as when a few people came ashore, the Fallen Mother Goddess left the large army of the two and quietly entered Bailang to hunt the Rose Sect in the Southern Continent. It is also ridiculous to say, perhaps the results of the church forces in the southern continent in cracking down on cults under so many years of encirclement and suppression are not as great as the blow of the fallen mother goddess.
For the Mother Tree of Desire, which is adjacent to the path, the Fallen Mother Goddess will naturally strike all of her subordinates mercilessly—but not for the Seven Gods.
"Hello, Colonel Hall." Gao Wei looked at Alfred across from him with his own eyes. Alfred is a colonel here, and he is also Audrey's second brother.
This New Year, he was destined to not be able to return to the devastated Beckland.
Alfred looked at the prince in front of him, who had pursued his sister and now seemed to be particularly down, and couldn't help but sigh, feeling that the world was impermanent.
"Welcome, Your Highness Gao Wei. His Majesty the King will ...... you Well, being sent to the Southern Continent should have his consideration. ”
Alfred tried to soften his tone, but couldn't.
"Needless to say, I know it all." Gao Wei lowered his voice this time and smiled bitterly:
"Some mistakes have to be taken care of, and I deserve them."
"Alas......" Alfred felt a trace of emotion in his heart, completely unaware that he had been affected by Gao Wei's abilities, nor did he see that Gao Wei was now a demigod of the "tyrant" path.
Because under the gift of the "High Dimensional Lookdown", Gao Wei has now fully obtained the extraordinary ability of the "Heartless One".
In the stage of "Heartless", the extraordinary person of the actor's path will not only suffer from the uncontrollable tendencies accumulated during the "Wall of Lamentation" period in Sequence 5 and the pollution that exceeds his own series, but also gain a part of the ability to act on the spiritual realm, and the essential source of this part of the ability to affect the spirit of others is the pollution in the 5th period.
After a slight sigh, Alfred said to Gao Wei in front of him, "Your Royal Highness, please come with me. By order of His Majesty the King, you cannot return to the Kingdom of Rune for the time being, but we have prepared your own estate here. ”
"Thank you." Gao Wei smiled a little "reluctantly" and nodded to Alfred beside him. Alfred walked forward in some silence, and the soldiers around him followed him silently one after another, guarding the two of them.
Alfred saw Bethel beside him, and turned his head to look at Gao Wei in front of him: "Who is this?" ”
"My friend, the extraordinary one who protects me." Gao Wei shook his head, and a slightly helpless smile appeared on his face:
"Even if the Father-King exiles me here, I'll have to protect myself a little."
"......" Alfred turned his head, he remembered how bright the prince who had once pursued Audrey had been when he talked about the kingdom, and now he was only on the verge of being caught up in a great maelstrom of intrigue, and he still lost everything easily.
That's where the extraordinaire comes in......
"Come with me, Your Highness the Prince." Retracting his thoughts, Alfred waved his hand lightly, allowing the soldiers around him to expel the people next to him. The natives of the southern continent next to him glanced at the colonists' soldiers with some fear, and quickly covered their children's eyes and mouths and hid in the gloomy alleys.
As the sun began to sink in the west, Alfred's ears moved slightly, and he seemed to hear the prince beside him say:
"I'll go back to the ...... in Beckland"
What a pitiful thing, Your Highness the Prince...... Alfred shook his head, thinking with some emotion. He will not be stupid to support this down-and-out prince because of a little pity in his heart and the fact that he was an old acquaintance with the prince before.
After all, he is the second son of the Hall family, and he still wants to compete with his brother for the title of the next Earl of Hall, so he obviously can't do anything stupid. This is true not only for him, but also for the Hall family.
What Alfred didn't see was that Gao Wei looked in the direction of the Rorsted Islands, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a strange smile.
…………
Between Harman Island and Bansey Island, the Lost Homeland sails the seas like a ghost ship in folklore. The dark green flames burning above made the surroundings look quite terrifying, and Crane sat in the captain's quarters, looking into the distance.
In the middle of the night, Marić pushed open the door of the ship and said to him:
"Captain Sparrow, there's a situation ahead."
"What's the situation?" Crane asked in a deep voice.
"There seems to be a friction between two sea vessels to the southwest, and I suspect that the pirate ship is plundering ordinary merchant ships or ships." Marić asked his captain, "Do we need to stay away?" ”
"Go forward first." Crane maintained Gelman's tone, and said to Marić succinly:
"Approach the pirate ship and tell me which group of pirate ships this is."
"Okay." Marić walked outside, ready to begin commanding the living corpses next to him to get moving. Crane sat in the captain's room, the corners of his mouth gradually curling upward.
"Pirate ......"
The shadows around him rolled up, sealing off the entire captain's room, and Crane took four backwards steps into the gray fog. He brought the clothes he had stored in the gray mist to reality, slowly putting them on, and then pulling out the cane that lay under his seat.
Taking off the pirate hat on his head, Crane is now like an adventurer at sea, and there is not a trace of pirate on his body.
Actually, I wasn't a pirate in the first place...... Crane thought to himself, holding the tip of the staff with his right hand.
Underneath this staff are four cold rays, and while they are not extraordinary weapons, their hard texture can still be used as a main weapon.
After obtaining the extraordinary trait of the ability to favor frontal attacks, maybe Crane can use the high-dimensional channel to find a craftsman to make two weapons for frontal combat. Klein's strongest weapon now is the "Wriggling Hunger" he wears on his hands.
"Captain Sparrow, with the Red Skull Pirates in front, and the captain is the 'Sea Wolf' with a bounty of 900 pounds." Marić quickly said, "There are not many people up there, only a few hundred pirates, do we need to get closer?" ”
A few hundred pirates is really not much, because for the extraordinary, the extraordinary ability of the medium sequence is enough to inflict a wide area of damage.
"The bounty is a little short...... Klein weighed how many gold pounds he had left in his hand, and sadly found that the money he had left after resupplying the ship might not be able to buy the extra ritual materials. He grinned, no longer suppressing the intense hunger that the very obedient "wriggling hunger" in his hand carried itself:
"Someone offered to send us money to spend."
Hearing this, Marić immediately understood the captain's thoughts, and nodded slightly to summon the "living corpse" under his control to let the "Lost Country" crash into the Red Skull pirate ship in front of him at full speed.
On the White Onyx, Captain Erlan had a serious expression on his face, and the expression on his face gradually distorted as he looked at the pirates who were about to board the ship across from him.
Even though he had his sailors do their best, he still couldn't escape the Red Skull Pirates. The pirate group was determined to plunder the waterway, which was easily blocked by naval fleets and church ships, and then quickly leave.
Could it be that they are running out of supplies? A thought flashed through Erlan's mind, and as he looked at the "Red Skull" getting closer and closer, he gripped the railing in front of him hard:
"Ready for battle."
In this case, if they can block the captain of the Red Skull Pirates on the opposite side, "Seawolf" Johansson and "One-Eyed" Anderson, and prevent them from boarding the ship, then they still have the possibility of escaping!
At this moment, however, Ellan saw a startled sailor stumbling beside him, who shouted as he ran:
"Oh no, Captain! There's one-"
"There's another pirate ship over there!"
Finished...... As soon as these words appeared in Erlan's mind, he looked up sharply.
The sun had already set, and only the ripples on the sea level in the distance reflected a slight orange-red glow. However, in the midst of the approaching black night, a black phantasm emerged from afar.
It's like a terrifying ghost ship from folklore, with a ghostly green flame burning on it. These flames burned the surface of the sea, rushing forward at speeds that ordinary ships could not reach.
Damn it!
"Get down ——!" Erlan shouted hoarsely, and as soon as he lay down, he felt a strong concussion coming from the side.
No, it's not like our ship is being hit directly by something of this speed! Erlan finally stood up with his extraordinary physical fitness, and saw a scene that shocked him:
A ghostly ship with a glowing green flame slammed into the Red Skull Pirate Regiment's ship with a bounty of nearly £1,500, sawdust and metal cracking and splashing in the air with seawater.
However, the pitch-black ship was not damaged in the slightest, and one after another the pitch-black hooks were thrown towards the Red Skull, and one by one the treacherous figures rushed down from above.
This, this is a ghost ship? A ghost ship from folklore? Erlan looked at the "Lost Country" in front of him with a dull face, and noticed that the man in the leader, wearing a long trench coat and holding a cane, landed directly on the Red Skull.
"We've taken over here."
Marić no longer suppressed the malice in his eyes, and scanned the surrounding crew as if he were a real living corpse. He jumped onto the "Red Skull" and walked forward step by step, facing the people on the "White Onyx", so as to control the ship and prevent them from sneaking up on the "Lost Country" from behind.
As the three of them moved, the sun sank completely, and the sporadic light lit up from the surroundings, and the environment here seemed to become even darker.
