Bang!

Boom, boom!

The shrill sound of muskets, mixed with the sound of mechanical cannons held by the mechanical modders, pushed this inexplicable melee in a bloodier and more chaotic direction.

"Kill, kill them!"

"Damn Blood Whale bastard, you dare to attack us?"

"Hahaha...... It's you who slaughtered you, even if someone from the Black Pearl comes, you can't escape! ”

"Kill, kill—"

Those pirates, who were already bound by the rules of Alexei Island, were stimulated by the pungent smoke of gunpowder and the smell of blood, and their eyes were red one by one.

Especially the pirate group that had friction before, and even had a grudge, was even more desperate at this time.

And the three pirates who wanted to use a broken pocket watch to trap people at the beginning had their heads taken off at the beginning of the melee.

The bustling trading area is full of crazy and fierce pirates, and the scuffle fills the place with all kinds of negative emotions.

Chaos, killing, blood......

In the blood-stained trading area, there was a corpse with a hideous face, and its broken limbs were scattered in all corners.

Wayne disappeared in a corner of the trading area, calmly watching the scuffle that started by him.

After the transformation, the depths of the turquoise pupils faintly revealed a little scarlet, and there was a cold killing intent on the body.

He looked at the scattered corpses below, his fingers flexing slightly, resisting the urge to get the ghost to unleash the corpse blast.

That's the result I want?

Here's what I wanted...... Is it?

No!

Wayne took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and gritted his teeth, making his cheek muscles tense.

Although this could prevent those bloody and chaotic scenes from reaching his eyes, his spiritual power still radiated.

He knew it was the power of the deceptive talent, still working on the pirates below.

Even though some of the pirates had already been slaughtered, he could see that the deception was still working on them.

At this moment, he thought a lot.

The first thing that comes to mind is the death process that the clown said earlier, after receiving fatal injuries.

The brain dies first, so that the mental power cannot control the body with the brain.

Then the spiritual power will return to the soul, and then the soul will merge into the original core......

So, what fraud changes is not the spirit, but the soul, even the source!

Where does such a process seem to have been seen?

Where?

At......

Wayne opened his eyes suddenly, it was a god projection!

I remember the previous time in the city-state of Custer, at Carly's welcome ceremony, the panel was prompted like this at that time.

The inculcation of the power of faith has changed people's perceptions and turned them into fanatics of the Church of the Dawn from the inside out......

And the same is true of the previous time when Pavra was given "good" authority......

I see, that's the essence of the effect of the talent for fraud – change perception!

guide them to develop in the direction of his desired cognition, and the strength of the mental strength is only a factor that affects the duration of the deception and the depth of cognition......

At this time, a message suddenly appeared on the panel.

Wayne just glanced at it, and suddenly a chill welled up from the depths of his heart.

[Congratulations, your in-talent ability: Deception has reached the entry level, and you can use the survival point pair to increase its level.] Comment: Something seems to be acting on your origin, delusion...... Special Rewards: Survival Points +200, Origin +5, Spirit Level +10, Tenacity Level +10. 】

[Note 1: Fraud - Illusion Creation, Effect: You can create convincing illusions that confuse and mislead yourself and others, manifesting as creating complete illusions, or changing your appearance to make it seem like it's true.] 】

[Note 3: Fraud - Speech Spirit, unlockable when you reach proficiency level.] 】

[Note 4: Fraud - Mirroring??? 】

[Note 5: Fraud-??? 】

Wayne looked cold on his hands and feet, especially after seeing that comment.

The perception of the panel has also changed?

Yes!

Although the reward was given, the panel was unaware of the existence of the Deception talent, just like when he used the Deception talent before!

This is evident in the fact that there is no change in the description of the entry-level deception talent when comparing the Spiritual Transformation and Deception talents.

According to what Wayne knew about the panel, whether it is knowledge, skills, attributes, or other abilities, the panel has the ability to convert it into numerical values.

If it is normal, after the fraud talent reaches the entry level, the dashboard will describe each ability in more detail and will also be digitized.

For example, what is the success rate of fraud, how much mental power is consumed, and even what kind of enemies will have an effect after using it......

But now, nothing!

Not only does the description of each ability not change, but it also gives rewards and abilities that can be unlocked when you reach the next level......

Thinking of this, Wayne opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't make any sound in his throat.

The conclusion he came to was that the talent for fraud was above the panel!

Deception Talent ...... Even the panel is fraudulent......

The word "fraud" kept echoing in Wayne's mind.

Fraud, fraud......

The noise around him, the shouts of killing, and the bloody and chaotic scene seemed to disappear, not interrupting Wayne's thoughts.

This state of affairs lasted for a long time before he thought of another problem.

Is there anything special about him besides the deception talent and the panel?

Or is it an anomaly?

Should......

Wayne's eyes twitched slightly, catching a glimpse of the ghosts floating above his head.

Although they were all his original descendants, their expressions were different when facing the scene below.

The ghost was indifferent, and his red eyes were full of coldness.

The driver was calm and did not care about the scuffle below.

The corners of the red ghost's mouth turned up, his face was full of excitement, and he was even more faintly eager to try, as if he was going to jump down and fight.

The expression of the secret master was a little more complicated, it was a mixture of worry, pity and sorrow, and the red eyes were equally complicated......

Thinking about it, it seemed as if this was the first time Wayne had carefully observed these children, as if he had rediscovered them.

Although he knew for a long time that these heads had different personalities and were interested in different things.

But as the original descendant, they have a completely different way of thinking about one thing...... This is probably an anomaly, right?

Like schizophrenia?

No, it's not!

Wayne knows the difference between a child and a schizophrenia!

The Origin Descendant is more like an independent individual, originating from Him, but each of them is separate, with its own thoughts, actions, and actions, but it does not affect its Essence......

Wayne pondered for a few seconds, perhaps there was something wrong with his previous thoughts about the Origin Descendant.

In the past, he used the Origin Descendant as a tool, a carrier of spell rune imprints, and a helper in his battles......

But now, maybe the Ghost Meditation Technique has a deeper secret!

Thinking of this, Wayne took a deep breath.

For now, at least, he'd found a third thing that might be hidden, aside from the deception talent and the panel—the Ghost Meditation Method.

If the gift of fraud changes cognition and creates chaos,

The panel is a source of strength that allows him to grow faster.

So, the ghost meditation method ......

Devouring, accelerating growth?

Spell rune branding, auxiliary combat?

Still is...... In order to give birth to the strange things that hide in the origin world......

Thinking of this, Wayne couldn't help but shake his head, he couldn't continue to think about it.

There are so many secrets in him that it seems that it will take a long time to figure them all out.

At least now he's alert, and that's a good thing.

And he also had some ideas on how to proceed to investigate those anomalous beings—order.

Panels, deception talents, and ghost meditation methods, while each related to some kind of secret, are fundamentally different.

Judging by the order, it should be the first deception talent, then the panel he brought to this world, and finally the meditation method!

Therefore, apart from the sourceless thing of the panel, the talent for fraud should be related to the predecessor, to be precise, the Loft family to which he belongs.

Wayne has not forgotten the illusion he had when the deceptive talent awakened, the younger sister named Estelle Loft.

And the ghost meditation method ...... Someone should know about the Ghost School!

"It seems that it is necessary to go to the family and the ghost school......"

Wayne muttered to himself, his slightly confused eyes regaining a hint of clarity, and the cacophony of noise around him flooded into his ears again.

He looked at the scene below, a bitter look on his face.

Unexpectedly, an unintentional act not only made him understand the essence of the talent for fraud, but also suddenly promoted to the entry stage.

Entry...... You can be promoted to the Great Wizard......

Wayne glanced at the information on the panel, where a new hint was indeed displayed.

[You have met the conditions for advancing to the rank of Grand Wizard, have you advanced?] 】

[No! 】

Wayne made a choice, it was not yet time to qualify, at least not yet.

At this time, the scuffle in the trading area not only did not stop, but became more chaotic as more and more pirates rushed to hear the news.

Pirates die almost every moment, bringing more pirates involved with him to join in.

"Kill them and avenge Shertai!"

"Damn, why is there a war here? Dare to attack me? Kill! ”

"You-"

[You are locked by Ossie Derricks' killing intent.] Evaluation: Weak slag. Reward: +1 Survival Point. 】

【……】

[You are being scanned by Salvatore Samuel Capo.] Evaluation: No malice, no malice to repeat. Reward: +100 survival points. 】

Salvatore Samuel Capo?

Wayne, who was looking at the scuffle below, noticed the familiar name appearing on the panel, and raised his eyebrows.

In such a state, the other party can also find out where he is?

Be aware of the effect of Level 4 Transfiguration - any Origin Power that is less than 40% of the Death Aurael's Origin Power will not be able to detect traces of your Transfigration when it perceives your body! (Chapter 178)

Wayne's eyes flickered slightly, he wasn't sure in the gladiatorial arena before, but now he ......

He could be sure that the legendary transcendent target of Salvatore Samuel Capo was himself!

But, what is the purpose of the other party?

Is it really the same as what the panel said, the other party has no malicious intent?

Still is......

At this moment, in the store area behind him, an angry roar sounded.

"You bastards, stop!!"

Hearing this voice, the pirate rushed to kill, and the cruelty and bloodlust on his face also stopped for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, all the pirates involved in the melee retreated from the inside and outside, scattering in all directions.

"The 'Killer' is coming, withdraw!"

"Damn, if you don't come sooner or later, I'm going to shoot the 'lone wolf'!"

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and leave the city-state first, or you will be blocked in the city by the people of the Black Pearl, and you will all die-"

Wayne glanced over and saw the "Slayer" Honatan Kirkland running at a fast speed in the distance, full of evil breath and full of anger on his face......

Hornatan ......

Yes, it can be so!

He suddenly thought of how to make the next arrangement on this Alexey Island!

Wayne looked left and right quietly, and when no one was paying attention, he directly asked the red ghost to release the Shadow Step Spell.

In the next second, he appeared in the realm of death that was full of death, looking at the entire Alexei Island.

If he was to complete what he had just envisioned, he would have to wait a few moments.

And he also needs to hide from the legendary transcendent who hides in the shadows.

In this way, Wayne has been maintaining a swift shadow walk, finding a random corner to hide when the time comes, and then returning to the realm of death.

On the other side, hiding outside the trading area, closer to the corners of the city-state's high walls.

Ronan sensed Wayne's disappearance and frowned.

His spiritual perception covers the entire island of Alexei, what......

Did he run to his hiding place again?

The preconceived Ronan pouted slightly, and originally wanted to see if there were any other actions behind him, but he didn't expect it to end like this.

He retracted his mental strength, thinking back to what Wayne had just done in the trading area, and always felt that something was wrong in it.

Is it the charm spells cast by the phantom clones that are causing the chaos?

But how did the pirates believe that the pocket watch was really worth ten thousand gold pounds?

Ronan thought for a few seconds, and the corners of his mouth twitched, it seemed that the little guy had learned a new spell, and the effect was to make people fall into a hallucinatory situation......

With that in mind, he turned and walked out of the city-state.

The little guy is the same as the bastard Bolas, be cautious, and should not be in danger anytime soon.

It just so happened that he could take advantage of this time to do something else......

……

……

The farce in the trading area had stopped before the arrival of "The Killer" Honatan, leaving only the devastation and the wreckage of corpses everywhere.

And those pirates who were injured in the melee and could not escape for their lives lay in a pool of blood one by one, staring at Honatan not far away with a cold expression.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on here?"

"Lord Slayer, we don't know ......"

The Alexei city-state guards were also confused, and this melee began inexplicably, and it had expanded to a thousand people without giving them time to react.

If it weren't for Honatan coming, they wouldn't have even been able to stop it.

Who would dare to run over when those pirates kill Red-Eye?

"Rubbish!"

Hornatan glared at the guards angrily, looked at the injured pirates on the ground, thought for a few seconds, and then waved, "Take a few of the less injured back to the gladiatorial arena." ”

The guard was just about to respond, and after glancing at it, he hesitated, "My lord, what about the others?" ”

"It's all slaughtered!" Honatan gritted his teeth and said: "Dare to make trouble in the Alexei city-state, die!" ”

"Yes!"

For a time, corpses were everywhere in the entire trading area, and viscous blood was mixed with stumps and broken arms, as well as weapons and equipment......

Hornatan's expression softened a little, and after glancing around, he said coldly: "This time, it won't be just like that. Once they find out who did it, everyone will be hunted down by the Black Pearl, even if he escapes from the island! ”

The pirates and nobles who were watching the play around were stunned, but they squeezed out a smile on their faces and nodded in agreement.

"Humph!"

After making arrangements, Hornatan saw that the drama here had stopped, and turned towards the central city-state, leaving only the guards to deal with the follow-up.

It wasn't long before he made his way through the shop district to the larger pirate group's quarters, muttering in confusion.

"Damn, I always feel that there is something unusual on the island in the past two days."

"First 'One-Eye' was killed, and then 'Beautiful Hand' was also assassinated inexplicably, and there was also the ...... of the trading area"

"No one is going to be eyeing this island, is it?"

Hornatan looked around and quickly quickened his pace, he had to talk to Flanda quickly.

What a bad pre-...... Well?!

Just then, a strange Gonzalez language rang in his ears.

"Flo, Ize, Aurela!"

Then, before he could react, he felt a pain in his shoulder, and he was dragged into a sticky place.

"Who?!"

Hornatan's murderous intent erupted.

But the moment his gaze returned, he was stunned.

I saw that the world in front of me was no longer a familiar garrison area, but a world full of death.

The mountains of corpses piled up towered into the sky, connecting the sea of blood in the sky......

And behind this mountain of corpses and sea of blood, there is a huge throne high above.

In a faint moment, the vanished memory in Honatan's mind resurfaced—the god he had seen after being hit by the howl of fear!

At this time, Wayne, who was standing behind Honatan and had his back to him, said calmly, "Welcome to the land of death. ”

Death...... Country?!

Honatan was about to activate the Transcendent Bloodline, but a terrifying scream made his consciousness sink down.

The terrifying figure appeared in front of him again, sitting on the throne, and looked at him......

In his last consciousness, a word came to his mind, Death......

[The Fear Howl (Death) spell you unleash hits Honatan Kirkland, causing him to fall into fear and despair for 100 seconds.] Rating: Use the power of the Death Origin in the realm of Oranelle...... I have to praise you...... Special Rewards: +50 Survival Points, +1 Spirit Level. 】

Praise?

I'm afraid that doing so will cause something ungood, right?

Wayne pursed his lips and looked at Hornatan, who had completely lost his resistance, and he no longer hesitated.

Activate, Spiritual Transformation Increases Resilience Level!

Boiling blood!

A punch blasts the Slayer's head up, then casts a soul-eating spell that consumes Honatan's corpse.

[You use the Soul Eater Spell to devour Honatan Kirkland's Origin, and your Origin is boosted.] Special Bonus: Origin +5. 】

Immediately afterward, Wayne gave an order directly to the Red Oni - Transfiguration.

In the next second, he took on the form of Honatan and walked out of the realm of death and reappeared in the garrison.

Wayne straightened out his gorgeous robes and continued to walk in the direction of the gladiatorial arena with a calm face.

Sorry, for the sake of the next plan, I can only make you disappear.

However, since even the "one-eyed" and "beautiful hands" are dead.

The "killers", who are one of the heads of Alexei Island, should also go and reunite with them.
