Smack.

Smack.

Wayne leaned on the lookout with his back to the red moon, looking up at the night sky veiled by the glow of the red moon, playing with the golden pocket watch in his hand.

The Grand Knight of Adjudication, Huberto Watson, is another transcendent whose strength is close to the legendary level like Director Ales......

In his mind, he recalled the scene of the battle between him and Ales over and over again.

Although Director Ales's strength at that time reached a level close to that of a legend, now that he thinks about it, he had just absorbed the power of the Calamity Origin that time, and he had not reached the level that matched it.

One thing, Wayne was sure of - Alez's attack with the Origin of Calamity didn't have the same Doom Effect as Tina.

That's why at that time, he was able to crush the opponent with absolute strength without the accumulation of spell skills and knowledge.

If Ales had been familiar with it for a while, had mastered the power of Calamity, and developed or learned some skills, it would not have been clear what the outcome of that battle would have been......

But this time, the Huberto ruled that the Grand Knight was different from Director Alex.

He has improved from an ordinary priest step by step to his current strength, and his combat experience is far beyond imagination, not to mention that with his identity, he must master some unique abilities of the Dawn Church.

This is not difficult to see his horror from the dazzling divine light he just saw.

"Terror ......"

Of course, Wayne is not saying that he is powerless.

At least with the Demon Joker and the newly acquired Forbidden 2-77 Karel's Murmur, as well as his newfound spell abilities, he also has the strength to fight.

If Tina......

Thinking of the white-haired girl, Wayne snapped his pocket watch and vetoed the plan.

Tina's loss of control is more volatile than the forbidden object, and it also attracts the gaze of the ill-intentioned phantom, Tina Lilith Leonard.

In the event of an accident, he, well, everyone on the Ronan, is afraid that he will have to wait for death.

Thinking of this, Wayne re-lit a dawn candle and closed his eyes to rest.

Before his consciousness fell asleep, the last thought in his mind made him want to laugh.

Well, being hunted down by the clerics of the dawn, and relying on the light of the dawn to dispel the pollution of the red moon...... It's ironic to think about!

At this time, Claire, who was at the bottom of the ship, looked at the guards who were learning the secret art of the Eternal Life Society in front of her, and her mind had already flown to the deck and flew to Wayne.

Sure enough, as Menor said, a person with ability, talent, and luck like Wayne has an independent judgment on everything, and will not easily trust others.

If it hadn't happened, he wouldn't have even chosen to fall into the Immortal Society......

Then let me see, how are you going to spend this time, Wayne~

……

……

Early the next morning, the red moon disappeared.

At the sea level to the southeast, the sun rises slowly, illuminating the sea.

Some deep-sea fish that had been dodging and suffocating at night also jumped out of the sea in an instant, breathing in the fresh air and bathing in the sun.

At this time, the Ronan was on board.

Ronan came out of the cockpit in high spirits, seemingly unaware of what had happened on deck last night, and shouted as loudly as ever.

"Willen, lower the sails!"

"Boatswain, count the numbers and see if there were any unlucky eggs to be sent to the deep sea to feed the fish last night."

"Nathaniel, go prepare some food, don't let the first mate wait!"

"Understood, second mate ......"

Hearing a cacophony from the deck, Wayne opened his eyes and looked around.

The sleepy-eyed pirates emerged from the cabin and repeated their usual work over and over again.

Count the number of people, clean up the companions who were dragged into the dream and tragically died, and clean the deck......

When there were no ships to rob, their lives at sea were like those of sailors on ordinary merchant ships.

Wayne glanced around and saw that there was nothing unusual, and opened the panel to take a look.

[Congratulations, spend the day safely.] Evaluation: Strong chicken, you have survived another day, rejoice. Reward: +3 Survival Points. 】

He didn't dwell on the difference between weak chickens and chicks, and calmly looked at the other tips.

After a night of sea sailing, the place where the killing intent is stored, the red moon pollution, and the killing intent lock of the aberrant species hiding in the deep sea, these brought him fifteen attribute rewards and two thousand three hundred survival point rewards.

Plus the ghosts of their meditations...... A total of eighteen attribute rewards and more than 2,000 survival points.

After silently calculating, Wayne nodded slightly, he was quite satisfied with this harvest.

It used to take thirty years to reach the Legendary-level basic attribute, but now the time has been shortened to six years, and the speed of strength improvement has increased fivefold.

However, if he wants to defeat the Grand Knight of Adjudication, he will have to grow up faster.

Then, after taking the form of Marco through the transfiguration spell, he got up and beckoned to Ronan below, "Second mate." ”

"Captain?"

Only then did Triangle Eye notice the people at the lookout, and after shouting "Hello Captain" in unison with the surrounding pirates, he hurriedly climbed onto the lookout.

"Captain, what do you command?"

After two days of getting along, he found that the red-haired captain was actually very easy to get along with, and as long as he followed orders honestly, he would not even receive any scolding.

Compared to what he had experienced as a boatswain on other ships, this was definitely a good captain.

"For the rest of the time, sail at full speed without any stops." Wayne didn't talk nonsense with him, and gave the order directly.

"Full speed? Are you referring to an overloaded steam core? ”

"Without affecting the ships."

Ronan glanced at the deck below, as if thinking about the Ronan's situation.

"What's the problem?" Wayne saw his hesitation and asked calmly.

"Yes, there is one," although Ronan did not know the captain's intentions, as the second officer, he was at the helm, and he could not ignore the situation of the ship and the navigation situation.

"Tell me about it."

"It should be said that there are two, one is that we are running out of fuel and fresh water on our ship, and we must resupply it on Dacman Island in front. Another question, those crew members have been at sea for two months, according to the rules of the deep sea, they must go ashore for a period of rest within three months, I wonder how long the captain wants? ”

Another deep-sea rule, a three-month cycle, must go ashore to rest?

However, Wayne didn't delve into it, but frowned, "I remember getting a lot of supplies from the Storm Hunter before?" ”

"Most of them are ingredients, and there is little oil and fresh water, especially oil." Ronan looked at Wayne with a wry smile, if it wasn't really for the fact that he couldn't help it, he didn't want to refuse the captain's orders.

"How long will it take?"

"Half a day at most!" Ronan hesitated, gritted his teeth, and said, "If the captain allows it, I want to apply for the first mate's guards to cooperate together, and the time can be shortened." ”

Half a day?

Wayne frowned, according to last night's speculation, the Grand Knight of Judgment was less than two days away from him.

He also thought that he could use the power of the Ronan to avoid the pursuit of the other party as much as possible, but he didn't expect that it had just begun, and the distance would be shortened to one day.

"As soon as possible."

"Yes, but, but they ......" Ronan glanced below the lookout.

"Still a month away?"

"Yes, and they need at least ten days off. Otherwise, mental exhaustion and the desire to have nowhere to vent will make them more susceptible to dreams. ”

Dreamland......

Wayne looked at the pirates gathered below and thought for a few seconds, "Then find a place and recruit another group of people then." ”

"Re-recruiting? You mean, don't take them with you? Ronan looked at him in surprise, how else could he do this?

"Questions?"

"No, follow the captain's orders!"

Wayne nodded, "Let's set sail." ”

"Understood!"

Ronan jumped off the lookout and ran all the way to the cockpit, pulling down the brake lever and blowing the whistle in the face of the other pirates.

With the rumbling of the steam engines, the steamship began to slowly pick up speed and headed for Dacman Island.

Although he didn't know why the red-haired captain made such a request, his consciousness as a second mate made him have no resistance to this order. Even if he left behind the pirates who had been with him for years, it was still the same.

Awakened by the steam engine, Claire walked out of the cabin with a pair of seductive guards and emptied the aft deck, leaving Vivian to improve the manners and manners of the guards.

She had just arrived at the lookout and stood side by side with Wayne.

"It's decided?"

"Hmm."

Wayne looked in the direction of the stern of the ship, as if he wanted to see the Grand Knight of Judgment thousands of kilometers away.

"You say, with that person's strength, how far away should his spiritual perception be?"

"What? Worried that he will perceive you directly? The corners of Claire's mouth curled, and she looked at him with a smirk.

"Now is not the time to laugh." Wayne reluctantly withdrew his gaze and landed on the stern of the boat.

Well?

I have to say that the people on the Storm Hunter still have a good eye.

At least......

Bang!

Claire gave him a brain crash, his body turned sideways, and he said angrily: "You still say that you didn't peep? ”

Wayne scratched his head and looked at her innocently, "I just want to see if they have what it takes to protect you." ”

"Hmph~" Claire's nose and mouth resonated, "Their strength is not enough now, but after a while, they will definitely surprise them." ”

"Oh? Do you have a way to make them transcendent? ”

"Of course...... Secret. ”

Wayne: "......"

That's why he can get along with Claire 'friendly', not at all accustomed to each other.

Claire gave him a blank look, leaning on the railing of the lookout with her hands folded, lazily answering his doubts, "As far as I know, the clergy rely more on the blessings of the power of faith. ”

"But the power of faith does not belong to itself like the power of spirituality."

"What do you mean?" Wayne froze.

"It means that the power of faith they consume, if they want to replenish it on their own, will be very slow, and only with the help of churches, holy weapons, or places where some believers gather, they can recover faster, obviously Cordo Sea does not have this condition. As a result, they generally don't spend their energy on probing unless they have to. ”

Speaking of this, Claire smiled contemptuously, "Actually, it's not just Dawn, it's all the clergy of the Orthodox Church. With the path of one's own faith, accommodating more power of faith, it seems to be glamorous, but in fact it is just a group of poor worms who are constrained. ”

"Even the Holy Maidens who have gained authority, too."

It turns out that the clergy still have such drawbacks......

Poor worm?

Wayne probably understood the meaning, the entire Orthodox Church is like a pyramid, the people at the top have absolute power and authority, and the believers at the bottom have become a reservoir-like existence.

It's no wonder that after the city-state of Custer was occupied by the Storm Church, the Dawn Pope scolded his mother, which was to deplore those believers.

As for the Holy Maiden......

At this moment, Wayne's mind came to Carly's appearance, is she also a poor creature subject to authority?

"I forgot to ask you, what is the matter with the Holy Maiden's authority?"

Claire was patient: "The priesthood who has mastered part of the original power of the Divine Mansion has the ability to mobilize the power of faith, or life. However, when they control the authority, they will also be burdened by the power of authority, and most of them have some kind of defects, either they have problems themselves, or the people around them are unlucky. But most of them are unaware of it. ”

Tsk, is it like that?

It sounds like those saints are in a better situation than ordinary believers.

Thanks to the fact that he did not listen to Carly's persuasion, he chose to embark on the path of faith......

Without waiting for him to ask, Claire changed her tone and continued, "However, the Orthodox Church is not without merit, and their greatest advantage is its relative mildness and inclusiveness. This is incomparable to the Desire Sect of Despair. ”

"What about the Eternal Society?" Wayne couldn't help but ask.

"It's a different way."

"Huh?"

Claire glanced at him charmingly, then turned to look at the guards at the stern of the ship, her eyes flashed with a complicated look, and she said softly: "The so-called eternal life refers to this world, not to individual ......."

The world, the individual?

Wayne remembered what Claire had said earlier, that the goal of the Eternal Life Society was to change the world......

"You mean to make this world immortal?"

"Unbelievable, huh?" Claire said leisurely, "Since the founding of the Third Age, the Eternal Society, this has been its goal! ”

"If even this world is gone, everyone will be forced to perish."

Wayne stared at her sideways, and it was hard to believe that the purpose of the Eternal Life Society was not destruction, but redemption......

"Did Menore tell you that too?"

"It doesn't matter," Claire asked angrily, "The important thing is such a goal, do you approve of it?" ”

"Me?"

"Of course, now that you're also a member of our Eternal Society, shouldn't you contribute something to this?"

Moral kidnapping?

Wayne pouted, "I've promised to go on a mission." ”

"Heh......"

At this moment, the whistle of the steamship sounded again, and the roar of the engine slowly stopped.

"Dacman Island, it's here!"
