Chapter 256: Epidemic Doctor!
Boom β
Thundered!!
Heavy clouds covered the sky and the moon, and lightning and thunder roared under the covered area.
Accompanied by the deafening sound of mechanical cannons, one after another cannonballs exploded on the surface of the sea, shaking the waves.
Countless deep-sea aberrations were towed, frantically attacking everything around them.
"Marko, twelve o'clock, there's a big guy!"
"Roger!"
Marco gasped, took out a bottle of energy potion and drank it, didn't care to wipe the corners of his mouth, and shouted at the pirate behind him: "Twelve o'clock!" β
The gunners holding the [Burst Sniper Rifle] immediately turned their muzzles, aimed at the deep-sea aberrant who had just jumped out of the sea, and pulled the trigger.
More than a dozen bullets struck it, several craters were blasted into its thin, scaly body, and the dull and viscous blood gushed into a mass and landed on the deck with a corrosive sizzle.
"Roarβ"
The pain caused it to roar, swinging its metal-sharp limbs and frantically attacking the pirates around it.
Whewββ
A pirate who couldn't dodge was stopped by the waist, his face frozen, and he just glanced down at it, and then jumped high with the last of his strength.
Even though this action completely split his body in two, he still burst out of the origin and plunged the short knife in his hand deep into the body of the abyssal aberrant.
"Kill, kill it......"
"Tasheng!!"
The pirate's eyes were instantly bloodshot when he saw this scene.
On the deck, shrouded in clouds and only dim light, the killing intent in their eyes could be clearly seen.
"Kill!"
There are feelings, but there is no time for them to remember the departure of their companions.
All they can do is hold the weapon tightly and slash, hold the gun and pull the trigger, and burn the source with all their might!
"Captain, there's not much bullet!"
"Me too, there's one last magazine left!"
"I ......"
Marco pulled the lantern staff from the body of a deformed species, and shouted with a cold face, "Moskra, you go!" β
"Yes!"
Moskla did not dare to hesitate and ran to the cabin in front of him.
At this time, the surrounding battle became more and more tense, and at any time, there were distortions that passed through the barrier of the rune circle and jumped onto the deck.
Without the Gunslingers who can kill powerful distortions, the balance that has been so hard to maintain will be upset in an instant.
By that time, the pirates on board would have suffered heavy casualties!
Marco also knows this.
So he was going to stay, stay in front of the gunmen, and protect them until the bullets arrived.
"Damn, what the hell are they doing? If this continues, before the Aranika catches up, all the people on board will die! β
But he only thought about it in his heart, and he could never say it at such a time.
Otherwise, it is not only the will of the pirates who will be shaken, but also the attacks of others.
Compared to him, a newcomer, Blackjack's prestige was unmatched on the Whitekley!
Bang, bang, bang......
At this time, in the bow position, Blackjack and Euan stood together.
The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, cooperate with the pirates to kill those deep-sea aberrations.
But if it weren't for the strength of the director, they would also stop and only rescue at the most critical time.
This is not to hold one's own identity, but to retain more power to deal with the vicious battles that may occur at any time in the future.
"Blackjack, Euan, how long can you hold out after running for so long? Stop, like a man, and fight me! β
Domitri laughed as if he had won the battle.
But the strange thing is that the entire Aranika is unusually quiet, except for his laughter.
Not only is it not like the deep-sea aberration on the White Krit, but it doesn't even open the rune circle.
The pirates on the ship looked at the Buckley fighting in front of them, their eyes full of banter.
If it weren't for Domitry's presence, perhaps they would have moved out of their barrels, drinking and cheering at the play.
"Tsk!"
Blackjack spat and stared gloomily at the pursuing Aranika, not responding to Domitri's taunt.
"Damn, when is that bastard from Menor arriving?"
"It's coming."
In contrast, Euan's expression was much calmer.
Casting elemental spells such as fireball spells and lightning arrows at will, the consumption of spiritual power is not even as fast as his recovery.
But he knew that this would not solve the current situation.
"Did you notice that the storm was much larger?"
"Huh?"
"It's not just the stormy sea that has grown, but also the number of 'Gamendia's Dreams' on that black carriage......"
Black Jack looked at him, his tone slightly irritated, "'Epidemic doctor', it's all at this time, just say what you have." You know, I'm not good at that! β
"The number of those 'Gamendia's dreams' has also increased." Unfazed, Euan patiently explained, "I suspect that the storm and the carriage are connected. β
"This discovery...... Very good. β
Blackjack frowned, "But the question now is, when are we going to wait?" If we continue, I'm afraid those deep-sea aberrations will tear us down! β
"And Waleed...... No, it's a horn, and it's getting out of hand! β
"Speaking of the Abyssal Aberrations," Euan continued, not answering his question, "There's also some kind of power in that storm that drives those mutant monsters to attack. β
"So it's certain that all this change has something to do with the wagon, or rather, the gravedigger!"
"Euan! Are you listening to what I'm saying?! β
"So, Jack," Euan said with a serious expression as he looked sideways at Blackjack, "how long will you be able to resist Domitri?" β
"You...... Well? Blackjack was stunned, "You're going to do it?" Right now? β
"Answer me!"
"It's just a matter of dealing with Domitry, I can hold on for two minutes!"
Euan looked at Black Jack, who had an arrogant face and stretched out two fingers, and couldn't help but be moved.
"Blackjack, you...... It's shameless! β
"This," Black Jack sneered, "If it was before, I could have crushed him with one hand, but since he followed Suyad, his strength has grown a lot, and there is still a taboo on his body, so ......"
"Two minutes, that's enough."
"What are you going to do?"
"Kill the gravedigger and kill the gravedigger."
Seeing him say it so easily, Blackjack couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Boss, do you have any specific plans?" How do you ...... What's the difference with me? β
"I'm afraid you don't understand it."
"Say!"
Euan shook his head and said helplessly, "According to the records of the Occult School, Lady Storm Bertolis was once a pirate in the Kordo Sea before she became a god. β
"Huh?? At this time, what do you say Lady Storm? Can He still drop a projection to save us? β
Blackjack's eyes widened, and no matter what he thought, he couldn't guess what Euan meant by this account.
Although some of the pirates on their ship were believers in the Church of the Storm, they were still far from being able to get the attention of the Lady of the Storm.
ββ¦β¦ It was the Second Age. β
Euan glanced at him, and spoke of a secret in a calm tone.
"The exact words on the relics of the Epochs are - He crosses the Sea of Kordo, and whenever the trumpet is blown, and the storm comes, there is divine help."
"And when He opened the kingdom in the Third Age, there was a forbidden thing called the Storm Horn on the Sea of Cordor!"
Blackjack was stunned, "You, you mean?" β
"That's right, Waleed's hand." Euan nodded, "You should remember the anomaly it caused when it got out of control, right?" β
"Yes. When it gets out of control, the seabed in the sea area will shake violently, causing a huge sea storm, and it will also attract deep-sea trolls, causing a riot of deep-sea fish......"
"That is the wrath of the Lady of the Storm, and the trumpet is used as a guide to punish all enemies at sea!" Euan took his words and said lightly, "Let Waleed stop." β
"You don't want to let the horn get out of hand, do you?" Blackjack's eyes widened, "We ......"
Ean interrupted Blackjack in a deep voice, "There's only one way to deal with the current crisis - and that's to kill the gravedigger, destroy the black wagon, and then the Aranika!" β
"You get ready, I'll get into that storm and deal with him as soon as the horn gets out of control!"
Blackjack tightened his lips, he knew it was a gamble.
But the current situation no longer allows them to continue to procrastinate.
Unless Menor arrives, he will have to take the risk as Euan said......
"Okay, I got it. But Euan, there's a premise for lifting the runaway Storm Horn. β
"I know that, trust me!"
Blackjack finally nodded and turned to the cab where Waleed was.
Looking at his back, Euan took a deep breath and watched the ongoing scuffle on the deck, the killings and shouts gradually awakening his fighting spirit.
It was as if time had gone back to those days on the White Rose, and he was just like the pirates on board.
Cleanse the deck of deep-sea aberrations every day, face the storm, and kill the invading pirates......
The dim doomsday storm in the distance was reflected in Euan's eyes, and the light of lightning shone from time to time, making his whole person like an unsheathed sword, sharp and full of killing intent!
"Until then, let's take the pressure off here for a while!"
Domitri may have long forgotten the origin of his "plague doctor......
Really, stupid as always......
Euan waved his hand, and a rune circle appeared beneath his feet.
The huge spider that had once hung from the ceiling of his clinic as a chandelier cut through the space, and when it saw him, it rubbed into his arms affectionately.
"Alright, Six-Eyes, I need you to play."
"Chirp." (Kill whom?) οΌ
"This sea!"
Youan evoked a grim smile, and actually ripped off a spider leg, and the blue blood slid down the wound.
"Chirp Chirp ......" (Pain, Pain, Pain...... οΌ
"Don't pretend, my pain has long been removed by me." Euan turned and threw the spider leg haphazardly into the sea, "Go ahead, around the ship." β
"Chirp." (Not interesting.) οΌ
The spider's disappeared spider leg kicked out again, and a huge spider web shot out from the tail end, instantly enveloping the entire Bekli.
In this way, it crawled along the spider's silk, crawled around the ship, opened and closed its mouthparts, tore at the spider's legs and threw them into the sea.
After a while, the water around the Bekli turned strange blue.
The glittering light was as brilliant as a blue ocean.
Butβ
The pirates killed a round of deep-sea distortors, and suddenly found that there were no aberrations in the sea and jumped on the ship again, and they couldn't help but look at each other in amazement.
"What's going on? First mate Euan's demon spider? β
"You're focusing in the wrong direction, you should say why are the aberrants in the sea gone?"
"Wow X, what about the aberrations?"
"Look at the sea!"
As more and more pirates dismantled the aberrations in front of them, they saw one athesaurus after another emerge from the sea around the Bekli in the water that still glowed blue under the dark clouds.
The aberrant species was covered with scaly tentacles, pus flowed from rotting flesh, and Sensen's bones were exposed, and they were even uglier to be corroded.
The same is true of the uncontaminated fish, whose scales seem to have been scraped off, hanging loosely, and there is not a trace of blood in the whitened flesh.
What's even more weird is that with the sea breeze, it is not a foul smell or a fishy smell, but a burst of sweet aroma.
The pirates on the entire ship couldn't help but be a little stunned.
"This, this is ......"
"It's the 'plague doctor'!"
"Vice Captain Euan?"
The older pirate looked at the demon spider entrenched in the spider web above his head, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's not wrong, it's his ......"
"Twenty years ago, the name of 'epidemic doctor' was no weaker than that of our captain."
"Jack?"
"Of course not, the first mate was still the boatswain of Vice-Captain Euan at that time, and I mean Boss Isabello!"
Captain Isabello?!
All the pirates looked at Euann Morris, the "plague doctor" who stood calmly on the bow of the ship.
At that time, he was so strong?
"You haven't experienced that time, and you don't know the prestige of Second Officer You'an. I remember very well that there was a time when he appeared in the seas that no other pirate group would have set foot in. β
"Why is that?"
"Why? Because of it, of course! The old pirate pointed overboard, "You don't think the name 'plague doctor' is just good, do you?" β
"That's achieved by stepping on the corpses of countless pirate groups and deep-sea monsters!"
At this time, Blackjack, who had finished explaining his plan to Waleed, stepped out of the cab and looked at the surrounding sea, a smile on his lips.
The "epidemic doctor" is the "epidemic doctor", and the epidemic virus used is stronger than before!
"Everyone, hurry up and rest now!"
"Yes!"
Blackjack didn't explain, and directly ordered the pirates on the deck to rest in place, and then looked at Euan at the bow of the ship, and nodded slightly.
Waleed is ready to try and get Storm Horn out of control.
Euan let out a sigh of relief when he saw his movements.
"Little Liu, I'll leave it to you here."
"Chirp?" (What are you going to do?) οΌ
"Don't talk nonsense, or I'll come out with small bones."
"Chirp!" (Don't!) οΌ
Euan pursed his lips and moved his hands and feet as he looked at the pirates below who were drinking potions to replenish their consumption.
Wait, and give them some time......
On the other side of the Aranika, Domitri frowned when he saw the anomaly in the sea ahead.
"Get ready, the 'plague doctor' has struck!"
"It's been preparing for a long time!"
"Hahaha, those bastards on the Black Pearl can really escape, it's been seven or eight hours."
"Kill ......"
They had all seen the corpses of the deep-sea species, and they knew that the Bekli was probably going to fight back.
However, when they ambushed into this area, they knew the whole plan and how much preparation had been made for this operation.
Therefore, these great pirates belonging to the Aranika did not waver in the slightest.
"Boss, do you want to inform the people in the back?"
"Not for the time being," Domitri said lightly with a slightly cold look in his eyes, "This time, our main task is to make it impossible for this Bekli to return to Wojciech, and buy time for the boss and those weird things." β
"If Blackjack their goal is to get past us...... That's better for us. β
"Understood."
The big pirate turned around and conveyed to the others.
Domitri didn't care about the others, and the source reached out to the dark sea behind him.
At this time, the huge Alanican steam engine rumbled, and it continued to pursue the White Krley straight.
The deep storm behind it seemed to be its backing, closely following the stern of the ship, and you could see that the storm swept through the sea and brought out a large number of deep-sea species.
From time to time, the gravedigger sitting in a black carriage would poke out of the corner of the tombstone and fish out a "Dream of Gamendia" from the sea.
Then, hang it on the top edge of the carriage behind you, and sway it in the wind along with the other small pyramids.
Sensing the anomaly ahead, the gravedigger just glanced at it and went about his business.
It's like two legends, a taboo...... It's just worth a glance......
Dominory retracted his roots, looked ahead, and muttered, "Blackjack, Euan, what are you two going to do......"
I can't wait!
And outside of this chase and escape two stormy seas, a small boat followed at a rapid speed.
The thin hull of the ship broke through the waves, but the surrounding deep-sea species turned a blind eye to it, and none of them stood in its way.
Several tall and tall men in black robes stood in small boats, looking at the center of the storm ahead.
Vaguely, they could be seen to have almost identical faces, and an anchor mark with intricate lines emitted a dark blue glow on their foreheads.
The light resisted the glow of the red moon and sheltered them in the middle of the night.
And under the black robe, a layer of feather-like scales shimmered with a metallic luster.
If Wayne had been here, he would have been able to tell that these were the same people from the Sea Raven clan who had given Karel's murmur to him.
"Elder, what's that carriage?"
"I don't know."
Troy stared at the two storms, his eyes flickering with fluorescent, and from time to time a picture flashed, as if he could see through the future.
"The long river of fate is really full of tricks......"
Several of the crow people in the rear looked at each other and remained silent.
The elders began to say unintelligible words again.
"Prepare for a fight, when we get on that ship!"
"Okay."
PS: I don't have much time to write today, that's all, I'll add some more tomorrow.
