Chapter 188: This Rope ...... Art!
Thundered.
The clouds were thick, the storm swept in, and the lightning thunderbolted down, causing waves to hit the sea, and also splashed circles of electric sparks.
"Roarβ"
More deep-sea aberrations sensed the compulsion and roared out of the sea, turning into charred corpses under the lightning.
"Waleed, lift the horn!"
The waves rolled down, the White Nick rose and fell, and Black Jack stood firmly on the deck and shouted.
Beside him, Euan waved the golden staff casually, shooting fireballs one after another, turning the deviants who jumped onto the boat from the waves into ashes.
Menol, on the other hand, stood with Wayne and watched them clean up the mess with a smile on his lips.
Wayne leaned forward, his hands on one side of the ship, his eyes fixed on the KΓ©zan Frolov, where Claire circled around the blessed virgin-in-waiting, looking at a loss as to what to do.
After hearing Blackjack's voice, he lifted the amplification effect of "Karel's Murmur", and the surging power in his body instantly weakened by half, giving him an inexplicable sense of emptiness.
[When you use "Forbidden Item 2-77 Karel's Murmur" for five minutes and ten seconds, the trajectory of fate changes to a certain extent, and the current encounter progress is 50/100.] Rating: Tsk, permanently reduces toughness level by 320...... You're really willing. Special Rewards: Survival Point 20, Origin +2, Spirit Level +2, Resilience Level +2. γ
"If you don't see it with your own eyes, it's hard to believe that you can kill Huberto on your own." Menor noticed his condition, leaned over to the side of the boat, and half-turned to look at him.
In the Eternal Society, many deacons do not have such strength, and even if they reach the same level as the Grand Knight of Judgment, it is difficult to kill him.
Wayne raised the melodica on his hand and gave it a light look, then retracted it into the spatial ring, "If it weren't for the fact that it suppressed Huberto's power and gave me such a powerful amplification, I wouldn't have been able to go so well." β
"Luck?" Menor said meaningfully: "Luck, in this era, many times represents - the favor of fate. β
Wayne felt that his words seemed to mean something, and raised his eyebrows, "Elder Menor's fate favors me?" β
"It's hard to say," Menor chuckled, and after a quick turn of words, he pointed to Euan, who was killing the deviant not far away, and asked, "Do you know the epidemic doctor?" β
Wayne didn't deny it, nodding his head, "When I was in the city-state of Custer before, he was my neighbor. β
Epidemic doctors?
Referring to Euann Morris?
It seems that Blackjack used to call Euan that, is it his previous name at sea?
"Did you know him before?"
"Well, we've known each other for a long time."
Menor's silver-gray eyes fell on Euan, "Twenty years ago, I spent some time on their ship, when he was the ship's doctor on the White Rose, and 'plague doctor' is what he became known in this Cordor Sea. β
"Compared with his ability to cure diseases and save people, his poisonous and terrifying epidemic poison is what makes many pirate groups frightened."
"Plague ......"
Will the wizards of the Occult School also learn how to make plague poisons?
Or is it a Potions Master?
Remember that there was a branch of toxicology in Potions that specialized in making plagues or poisons.
Wayne asked thoughtfully, "He, he should be a wizard of the Spiritual Mystery School, right?" β
"Sort of," Menor muttered two words, then leaned closer and whispered, "His spells are all self-taught, well, he is said to be a descendant of a legendary wizard of the Occult School." β
A descendant of a legendary wizard?
Wayne couldn't help but look at Euan, he still has such a background?
However, thinking of the two powerful spells just now, he had to admit that Euan's strength was indeed terrifying.
Let's not mention the summoning of deep sea beasts in the front, if the target of the fire spell in the back is not a god, and it is replaced by other legendary-level transcendents, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist.
"I'll tell you only one person, don't talk about it......"
"Menor, after all these years, you're still so annoying." You'an, who heard the conversation between the two, said with a cold face.
At this time, Blackjack finished arranging for the pirates to run out of the cabin, and came over and echoed, "Will they always be like this for eternity?" Specializing in hiding in the shadows and doing disgusting things. β
"The two of you haven't changed at all," Menol looked at the two helplessly, "I haven't seen you for so long, shouldn't you take out the wine that has been treasured for many years to entertain me?" β
"Sorry, I don't have wine, I have two pairs of fists, do you want to?"
ββ¦β¦β
Not to mention the bickering of the three, Wayne noticed that some of the pirates who had escaped from the cabin were in a very strange state.
"Praise the dawn, finally saved."
"What do you say? Praise the dawn? Bridges, you've got a broken brain, aren't you the Storm Lady you've always believed in? β
"What Lady Storm, I've always been a devout believer in the Church of the Dawn!"
"I see, Bridges, bastard, distorted by that ritual!"
"Damn, Leus has become a believer in Dawn too......"
Distort memories?
Wayne knew that it was not simply a change in memory, but a change in their will, a forced reversal of their beliefs.
It's a good thing that he didn't let the Lord of Dawn's gaze really come just now, otherwise he would have opened his mouth and closed his mouth to "praise the dawn" like these people, which is really bad.
The three of Blackjack also noticed this, "Epidemic doctor, how to solve this situation?" β
"There's nothing too good to do, faith is the hardest thing to reverse," Euan shook his head, "but as long as they don't fight the Church of the Dawn, they won't have any problems." β
"Or you can try to lure them into falling." Menol made a suggestion: "The projection just now has not really come, they are far from the level of fanatical believers, as long as faith collapses, what does it matter if faith dawns or storms?" β
"Fallen?"
Black Jack touched his chin, thought for a few seconds, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and said with a smile: "Give them enough wine these days, and then let them slaughter some people who don't have long eyes, and finally find a few plump girls for them to enjoy, and make sure that they are so comfortable that they forget the dawn." β
"Faith collapse is hard for others, but on this ship, it's too easy."
Wayne: "......"
In particular, every sentence is inseparable from the three-piece set of "wine, women and robbery", which is really worthy of a pirate......
However, when it comes to reversing beliefs, his talent for deception is the most suitable, as long as people with a slightly lower spiritual level have a certain chance of being controlled by him and forcibly reversing their beliefs.
Of course, this talent is currently his biggest secret, and there is no need to actively expose it for a few irrelevant pirates.
"Jack, you're a true villain." Menol sighed heartily.
Euan agreed, "Villain, that's a fitting word to describe him. β
"Hey, hey, that's enough for you two," Blackjack shook his fist, "which bastard took me to Brisse's tavern to find the girl?" β
"Huh?" Euan glanced at him, "Didn't you go by yourself?" β
Menor's eyes narrowed, and a wicked smile appeared on his face, "yes, I remember when you drank two large barrels, and you had to go to that Lady Bolim, and say that she is like a pearl on the sea of Cordo, and that she is not a hanging bell in front of her, but two lighthouses that guide your course......"
"Shut up!"
Blackjack's swarthy face flushed suddenly, and he had noticed that the pirates around him had pricked up their ears, and some of them were still covering their mouths and trying to hold back a smile, "Didn't you?" Plague doctor, don't think I don't know that you hooked up with Kimberly, the beautiful earl, under the name of the White Rose......"
"What?" Menol was stunned for a moment, and asked in a surprised tone: "Kimberly, the one from the Stephens family in the Southern Continent?" β
"That's right!" Seeing that his attention was shifted, Blackjack breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, looked at Youan and said proudly: "You shouldn't know her current identity yet, right?" β
"What identity?" Euan's face was calm, and he didn't seem to care about this matter at all, and asked calmly.
"She's a frequent sailing now, she's the captain of the Tulip, and maybe you'll see her on Awad Island in a while."
"Out to sea?"
"For your sake, she's always single, or I'll write her a letter now...... Ay?! β
Bang!
"Orr, Gehr!" (Frozen!) οΌ
While Black Jack was getting carried away, Euan raised his fingers, and a spell popped out, freezing his feet, and then dodged over, and his fist smashed directly into his face.
"Write letters, huh? Lao Tzu, let you write enough! β
"Epidemic doctor, don't slap your face, you bastard......"
Menor watched the two of them fight, and a trace of remembrance flashed in his eyes, remembering that the two of them were like this on the White Rose at that time, often laughing and joking......
Wei En, who was on the side, looked at the three of them with interest, and secretly said that their previous relationship should be good.
However, Euan and Blackjack can understand that Menor is a bit of a surprise to him.
It seems that this elder of the Eternal Life Society has befriended many people in the past, not only pirates, but also the former secretary of the Castle-State of Caster, Ales Koulibaly.
I just don't know if he made friends with these people intentionally or unintentionally......
Thinking of this, a title popped up in Wayne's mind - "Eternal Society Courtesan".
It seems to be quite vivid......
At this time, Menor seemed to sense his thoughts, "Are you thinking about something bad?" β
"No, it's just a little envious of your friendship." Wayne replied calmly.
"Really?" Menor stared at him with a skeptical look on his face for a few seconds, not continuing to dwell on the question, "Speaking of which, you've been a member of the Eternal Society for a while, did Claire tell you something?" β
"What do you mean?"
"For example, the origin, organizational structure, members, mission, and goals of the Eternal Life Society."
Wayne thought of what Claire had said before, that various churches, sects, and even wizarding schools were all using their own ways to protect some people from unknown dangers.
And eternal life will ......
"She just said roughly, as for the goal...... 'It is not the individual who lives forever, but the world'?"
"Oh? Has she already told you? Menor pretended not to know and asked, "What do you think about this?" β
"I don't have any ideas, it's not for me to decide whether the world is immortal or not."
"That's ......"
Menol nodded noncommittally, still with a faint smile on his face, and said, "Have you read those materials?" β
Information?
"Secret monk?" Wayne thought of the information about the Twilight Sect, "I only had time to read a part of it before I was pursued by the Grand Knight of the Judgment. β
"Your information is very timely to us this time, and after the meeting is over in a few days, we should arrange someone to come to Cordohai to solve this matter."
"Oh? Is there anything I need to do? β
Menol shook his head, "Not for the time being, it should be scouted first and all the core nodes will be determined before making a decision." β
Wayne was stunned, "The whole Cordor Sea?" What to do with such a large range? β
"I think I'll find them to help......" Menor glanced at the two of Euan, who were still fighting, "I believe that no one cares more about the Kordo Sea than their Black Pearl." β
Wayne knew in his heart that the most suitable person in this sea area was indeed the Black Pearl.
If they knew that the taboo rule for falling asleep at night was deliberately set by someone, I believe they would be so angry that they would have jumped up.
"Alright, you go and see Claire first, I don't have much time, I'll be back at the headquarters later."
"Hmm."
Wayne nodded, took one last look at Marko and the others who were cleaning the deck at the stern, and dodged back onto the Kendan Frolov.
In this way, Blackjack's gang seems to be murderous, but in fact they have an established code of conduct. Although there are villains like Henrik, at least they don't use knives against their own people.
And there is also Youan, I believe that Marco can get more exercise on the Black Pearl.
Menol looked at Wayne's back as he left, and although he didn't want to admit it, he actually treated Wayne as if he were the same level.
But what made him melancholy was that he could feel the loneliness and vigilance in Wayne's heart, like a strong high wall, without the slightest gap. Neither to the Eternal Society, nor to Euan and the others, will not reveal their true thoughts.
It's hard to do, if it weren't for his potential strength, and ......
Hey, forget it, leave it to Claire for a headache.
Thinking like this, Menor walked over and stopped Euan and Blackjack, and didn't know what they said, so they stopped the fight and began to shout that they were going to have a drinking party, and they didn't get drunk or go home.
On the other side, Wayne heard the voice behind him, and secretly sighed that this "Eternal Society Courtesan" was powerful, and walked to Clea's side.
"How?"
"Nowhere to start...... Claire looked a little frustrated, pointing to Pavra who was still asleep with her eyes closed, "I can't even touch her body." β
Wayne stretched out two fingers and tapped Pavra's forehead, and looked at Claire suspiciously, it's simple, huh?
Claire's eyes widened, "How did you do that?" β
"What was you thinking when you first wanted to touch her?"
"I just want to tie her up and bring her into that space...... Does it matter? β
Only that simple?
Wayne was skeptical and asked helplessly, "...... Don't you know the power of good authority? β
"You mean, you can't be malicious towards her?" Claire touched Pavra's bell with hindsight, "It's really possible, no wonder I just wanted to pick up ......"
ββ¦β¦β
Wayne covered his eyes and wanted to rip off that beautiful long dress, right?
You're really there, Thousand Faces.
Then he saw Claire excitedly pull out the rope and tie Pavra in a seductive pose......
The two hanging bells were particularly conspicuous, and if it weren't for the thick gold robes on Pavla's body, the dial and hands would have protruded.
Eh, how did you practice this rope art?
What a special art!
"How?" Claire admired her masterpiece for a moment, "Not bad~"
ββ¦β¦ Not bad, isn't it? Wayne turned to look at the bloody deck, covered his nose and said vaguely, "Hurry up, and I'm going to bring Ronan and them out." β
"Oh?"
"The Ronan has been damaged, and the rest of the voyage can only rely on the five-masted galleon at your feet, so you have to let Ronan come out and take a look."
Claire nodded knowingly, picked up Pavra with one hand and held Wayne's hand with the other, "Let's go, I can't wait to meet those lovely guards~"
"Wait, there's one last thing, Ghost!"
Wayne gestured to the corpses of the clerics on the deck, "Clean up." β
"Adagua!"
The four Origin Descendants followed his instructions and swept around with their huge mouths, leaving only a few intact corpses that had not been affected by the Corpse Explosion Technique.
[You use the Soul Eater spell to devour Bostian Coronel, and your Origin is enhanced.] Evaluation: The power of faith is not the source, but the bridge between the source and the soul. Special Reward: Origin +0.05. γ
γβ¦β¦γ
[You use the Soul Devouring Spell to devour Noberto Segura, and your Origin is boosted...... Special Reward: Origin +0.1. γ
So, the higher the power of faith, the less the source of self?
Did the gods devour and absorb their origin through the path of faith, or did they dissipate the origin as their faith deepened?
Wayne vaguely knew that he should have discovered the secret of the faith of the Orthodox Church and the evil sect, if this is the case, wouldn't the ultimate goal of those so-called gods be - the origin of devouring more people?!
However, whether this is the case remains to be determined......
Thinking of this, he took the corpses of the priests and returned to the theater space with Claire.
"Tina, Brother Wayne."
When Wayne first appeared in the theater, he saw a small figure pounce on him, and he quickly threw the body aside, "Tina? β
Tina wrapped her arms around his neck, and the whole person hung on him, burying her head in his arms, "Tina, sense the danger." β
Did you just sense the danger and end the special training early?
Wayne patted her on the back and said gently, "Don't worry, I've already solved it, it's okay." β
The white-haired girl raised her head, her empty eyes looking at him unblinkingly, "Tina, I'm not happy." β
"Why are you upset, Joker, well, Mr. Leonard messed with you?"
Wayne looked at the white-haired girl's hollow eyes that had become godless again, knowing that she should have mastered the origin of calamity, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Without mastering the source of calamity, Tina will become a mobile carrier of doom, but if she masters the source of calamity, she will be affected and unable to live like a normal person.
In any case, the woman named Tina Lilith Leonard is a problem that must be solved in the future!
"Tina, angry, ugly fellow." The white-haired girl said the most angry words with an expressionless face.
Then, Wayne saw a clown doll not far away rise and slam into the ground, repeating this for several rounds before stopping.
"Woo, you're ......"
The clown doll sat up from the ground and wanted to scold her mother, but she thought that it was Lilith who was scolding, and she lay back in anger.
"Tsk!"
Wayne looked at the clown doll's two buttons, and his eyes fell off again, and sympathized: "Let him go first, no matter what, he has helped you solve the trouble of the source of calamity." β
"Tina, yes."
Tina nodded obediently, but she was still lying in Wayne's arms, unwilling to come down.
"Oh, the cute girl is back~I'll go and settle this woman~" Claire saw the two of them and carried Pafla back to the rest area disapprovingly.
Lovely?
Cuteness is not worth mentioning in the face of sexiness and gentleness!
"yes, okay."
Wayne glanced around with Tina in his arms and saw Miss Zombie and the mechanical golem standing at the table, ready for dinner.
"Sava, go to the rest area over there, call all the people inside, and I'll take you out for a little activity later."
Miss Zombie nodded, walked with slightly stiff steps, and walked hand and foot to the rest area.
Seeing her in this position, Wayne suddenly had some bad premonitions in his heart, and quietly made an explosive gesture towards Zero, pointing to Sava's studio.
The gears in Zero's eyes spun rapidly, he didn't dare to hide it, and he was afraid that Wayne would blame, but in the end he nodded slowly and made a big gesture.
Sure enough, just to say that Sava's walking posture is so weird, it really blew up the studio again.
Wayne grinned a little distressedly, gold pounds, gold pounds, and I don't know if there is anything valuable on that ship of the Dawn Church......
It didn't take long for Ronan and the others to walk out of the rest area with a scared face.
"Captain, are you alright?"
"Well, they've all been killed."
"Great, those goddamn Dawn priests actually sneaked up and killed well!" Ronan was indignant, if it weren't for his lack of strength, he would have to find those people desperately just now.
The other pirates cheered with joy, glad they had escaped another crisis.
Wayne pondered, "There's bad news, the Ronan was destroyed by the Dawnmen. β
Ronan was stunned for a moment, "Eh, our ship is gone?" β
"Captain, what's going on behind ......?"
"The good news is that Dawn's ship is still very well preserved, with only one mast broken." Wayne looked at the triangular eye and asked, "Can such a ship set sail?" β
"The five-masted galleon?" Ronan's eyes lit up, and he nodded hurriedly: "No problem, I used to helm a three-masted sailing ship, but ......"
"Huh?"
"However, there are a few fewer people now."
Wayne looked at the pirates, who were only twelve with Ronan, thought for a while and said, "It's up to you for the time being, and I'll recruit some people on the ship later." β
"No problem!"
Ronan grinned, the five-masted galleon, especially the Dawn ship, could carry at least a thousand people, much more comfortable than the steamship.
"Okay, get ready, I'll take you out."
Noting that Claire had returned to her Queen's Guard, Wayne ordered everyone to form a circle, turn the key, and return to the Kenzan Frolov again.
This time, he brought Tina and Sava out as well, wanting to take advantage of the banquet held on the Bekli to let everyone relax.
After coming out, Wayne hugged Tina, pointed to the opposite boat and said with a smile: "Tina, I forgot to tell you that Marco is also on the opposite boat, I believe he must be very happy to see you." β
"Tina, Marco, who?"
ββ¦β¦β
