The sound of the rain pounded in front of the windowsill, making a crisp crackling sound.

Alexei Island under the clouds does not look gloomy.

On the contrary, when the houses with red roofs and white walls are connected, they are like beautiful pictures depicting the appearance of a peaceful city-state.

Pirates in jackets, and nobles who are gradually recovering are dressed up, and there is a rare absence of chaos and noisy noises.

From time to time, there are umbrellas propped up, and there are pirates with hearty laughter, running freely on the bluestone pavement.

Wayne stood by the window, quietly watching the serene and peaceful scene.

With his current strength, even if he didn't use his senses, he could clearly see the appearance of the people coming in and out under the high wall.

However, if it is a diffusion of spiritual perception, it is not as warm and colorful as what can be seen with the naked eye, and there is only a cold picture feedback.

From this, he couldn't help but think that the flesh and blood body was sensual, and the spiritual consciousness was only rational.

"It wouldn't be bad if the world had always been like this." Wayne muttered to himself.

The rainy night in the city-state of Custer came to mind.

It was a rainy night when the rain was pouring and the clouds were overcast, but the red moon was still hanging high.

The messy sound of raindrops beats like a drum, knocking out an unpleasant sonata, and then it is - Rasim, the giant beast of the deep sea!

"It's a monster ...... the scenery."

That terrifying monster, even just looking at it, will burn the eyes, the pain and the erosion of the origin, even the "epidemic doctor" Youan can't heal.

It can only be said that this world is too weird.

The peace and tranquility that people want only exists in fantasy.

And the accident is always the main theme.

Wayne sighed softly, he had encountered a lot of accidents, and he believed that he would face more ...... in the future

"Hoo ......"

"Suck ......"

A slight Gonzalez brief subsidy, the ghost seemed to read his thoughts, and hovered around his head a few times.

As an Origin Descendant, meditation between breaths at this moment is constantly increasing Wayne's mental strength and physical strength.

And the Soul Devouring Rune Brand in the center of the eyebrows also shone faintly, looking at the progress of that light, there were still nineteen twenties of the Origin Fusion to be completed......

Wayne glanced back, thought of the content of the previous panel prompt, and said lightly: "After fusing the Soul Devouring Spell, the next one is the Corpse Explosion Technique!" ”

"Understood, Baba!" The ghost grinned and nodded.

"What about me, what about me?"

For the competition for favor, the driver is always the most enthusiastic.

Because of the imprinted mechanical puppet system, he didn't encounter many battles, so when he could talk to Wayne, he never missed it.

"Cornerstone."

"Good!"

"What about us?"

The Red Oni and the Secret Lord glanced at each other and spoke at the same time.

"Shadow Walk, Spiritual Shield."

Wayne made arrangements one by one.

Except for the first four spell rune imprints, the rest of the spells will be prioritized by fusing the most suitable spells.

The reason why I chose Shadow Walk instead of Boiling Blood......

Wayne didn't know, but he had a gut feeling that the swift step would help him more in the future.

Although in that realm of death, he has always been a bystander.

But after all, it was a kingdom opened up by an ancient god when he ascended to the throne, and if you think about it, it is much larger than the upper limit of ten seconds of true men brought by boiling blood.

When, when......

At this moment, there was a knock at the door.

"Master~"

Oh?

Wayne looked in the direction of the door, his spiritual perception reflected on the people outside the door, and there was some surprise that Mitra was not alone this time.

He was accompanied by Old Jack and Oubley.

"Come in."

"Good afternoon, master."

Mitra walked in with a smile on her face, and did not choose to hide it because her relationship with Wayne was exposed, and even had a bit of pride in her tone, quite showing off the feeling of swearing sovereignty.

"Good afternoon, Wizard Wayne." Ubley raised his hand and said hello, his eyes glancing to the side from time to time, where there was a sleek pink back, dazzling.

And Old Jack just nodded faintly: "Good afternoon." ”

Wayne looked at the three of them one by one, leaned back in his chair, crossed his hands, and asked calmly, "Do you three have anything to say together?" ”

"I just received a message that I feel compelled to report back to you." Mitra looked left and right, and spoke first.

"What's the matter?"

"Blackjack, just contacted here again."

Blackjack?

Wayne looked at her calmly, "Go on." ”

"He asked me to inform you that there are a lot of people on the Black Pearl side of the Black Pearl who are asking about the [Burst Sniper Rifle], and if anyone finds you, please don't expose it."

"Huh?"

Wayne frowned, "Isn't he the first mate of the Black Pearl himself?" ”

Why do you need to be reminded?

Something quirky......

"That's what I asked," Mithra nodded, and continued, "He said that after investigation, among the pirates who came to question him, intelligence agents from the Aranika were found. ”

"That's why I came to inform you......"

"Oh."

Wayne knew in his heart, I am afraid that the last time the Buckry and the Aranika met, the [Burst Sniper Rifle] was exposed.

It's just that Mitra was specially asked to remind ......

"What else did he say?"

"I can't hide it from my master," Mitra said with a look of adoration and excitement on her face, "and he said that I would propose a deal to you in the name of the Black Pearl." ”

"About the [Burst Sniper]?"

"Yes."

A smile appeared on the corner of Wayne's mouth, just about to build Alexei Island, someone sent money, "Say, how much does he want this time?" ”

"A thousand."

"Much, how much?!" Wayne sat jerked upright, suspecting he had misheard.

"Master, it's a thousand [Burst Sniper Rifles]!" Mitra nodded affirmatively.

"Do you know how many pounds a [Burst Sniper Rifle] is?"

"Ten thousand gold pounds."

Wayne raised an eyebrow, really?

Now that Mitra knows the exact number, it means that Blackjack does have this intention.

It's just, he, the Black Pearl has so many gold pounds?

Maybe......

With the four continents, even if the Western Continent is excluded, there are also nobles from three continents who have to pay protection fees to the Black Pearl......

"How do I pay the deposit?"

"There is no deposit."

Wayne frowned and didn't speak, waiting to hear her explain.

"Blackjack said," Mitra said, no longer selling the off, "asking if you would like to take Alexei Island, the Black Pearl has discussed it and decided to use this island as a deposit for the [Burst Sniper]." ”

Alexey Island?

Wayne opened his mouth, he had just planned to use this island as a temporary base when Blackjack proposed such a deal?

Is it such a coincidence?

"Pleasantly surprised, isn't it, master?" Mitra had a smile on her face and said in an excited tone: "As long as you agree, the entire Alexei Island is yours, aren't you planning to stay here temporarily?" ”

"yes, very pleasantly surprised." Wayne rubbed his eyebrows.

A surprise is a surprise......

But from the moment he had the idea of occupying Alexei Island, he never thought of giving money to the Black Pearl.

With his strength, coupled with the identity of the captain of the Leonard, of course, it is more cost-effective to rob openly.

"Wizard Wayne, you don't think so?" Seeing his expression, Ubley asked suspiciously.

"No, it's not a good deal, and it's just a deposit."

Wayne shook his head, the deposit is the deposit, with the cost of the [Burst Sniper Rifle], a thousand sniper rifles can only buy one-fifth of the trading area at most.

"Did he tell you when the rest of the gold pounds will arrive?"

"This ......" Mitra was stunned for a moment, and sneered: "I forgot to ask, I just got the news, and I came to report to you." ”

Wayne: "......"

He looked at Mitra for a long time, until her face turned slightly pale, and then turned to Old Jack and Ublis and said, "Get ready, speed up the construction progress in the city-state, it seems that for a long time to come, this is our station." ”

"Okay." Old Jack was succinct.

"Then can I go back and pick up the rest of the family?" Ubley's eyes lit up and he asked.

"Family?"

Wayne shook his head, "For safety reasons, don't worry." ”

Since Blackjack specifically reminded him about the [Burst Sniper], the Araniga would know sooner or later that he provided it.

Add to that the Church of the Dawn, the Cult of Twilight, and other possible dangers......

The future of Alexei Island must not be safe!

"Oh." Ubli was a little disappointed.

"Master, can I reply to Blackjack now?"

Wayne thought for a few seconds, then nodded, "Reply, tell him that I agreed." However, if there are too many [Burst Sniper Rifles], the time will be extended. ”

The fifty [Burst Sniper Rifles] that were traded last time haven't started yet, and now there are a thousand more......

Marko, it seems that the bullet making drawings will help you a lot......

"In addition, tell him again that you will not announce the details of the transaction for the time being."

"Huh?" Mitra was stunned, "Master, don't you want to be known that this place is under your control?" ”

"Not yet." Wayne didn't explain much, waved his hand and said, "Go get busy, this island will be indispensable for you to be busy in the future." ”

"Yes!"

Mitra bowed, and the two dazzling hanging clocks naturally drooped, faintly revealing two brightly colored dials, as if deliberately left blank for the people in front of him.

Ubley and Old Jack saluted and turned away with her.

When everything was quiet, the corners of Wayne's mouth twitched slightly.

What he was afraid of was not that he had the identity of the owner of Alexei Island, but that he didn't want to expose it until he was fully prepared.

The rune circle on this island was not well arranged, and it could not give him more help.

The island's defenses can't even withstand a legendary-level blow, and they don't have much sense of security.

Such an island is not an ideal place in Wayne's heart.

Thinking of this, Wayne turned the golden key to return to the theater space.

What he didn't know was that at this time, in the store area not far away, three old guys who were terrifyingly old noticed his departure.

"The little one is hiding again."

"Looks like you're going to have to wait, Vilosa."

"The study hasn't come yet, has it?"

……

……

Wayne returned to the studio, took out two books of knights and a book of general knowledge of each continent from the spatial ring, and pushed the door out.

"Tina, Miss Pavra, Sister ......"

"Ti, Sister Sava ......"

"Sha, Shava......"

At the dining table, the little white fur grew up a little more, and his face was a little more colorful, and he was learning everyday words with Pavra and Miss Zombie.

She hadn't forgotten the Gonzarez language, and even learned a lot faster after having an emotional response.

But her speaking habits are still the same as before.

So, after getting Tina's consent, Wayne arranged for Sava and Pavra to be in charge of teaching her.

"Will, Wayne."

Little White Fur immediately sensed Wayne's arrival, and instantly appeared in his arms, his hands hanging around his neck, and even the two bear dolls and clown dolls that never left their hands were thrown under the dining table.

"It's been a lot of progress." With a smile on his face, Wayne took Tina to the table and sat down, put the things in his hand on the table, and said, "I brought you a new book, which should be able to help you." ”

"Yes, Tina, I like it." Xiao Baimao looked at the book with a simple map on the cover and said with a smile.

Her eyes were no longer hollow, but bright black, shining like two black gems, and they reflected Wayne's appearance in them.

Even if she was looking elsewhere, there was still Wayne in her eyes.

"Mine too?"

Pavra, who was next to her, watched the movements of the two, and when the evil wizard also had such tenderness, she saw the knight on the table and said happily, "This is for me, right?" Right, yes? ”

"Of course, no one here will be attracted to the fantasy world except for you."

Pavra: "......"

It doesn't feel like a good word.

But forget it.

See, her life here is not bad either.

Only Sava looked at Wayne with a blank face, as if to say, what about mine?

Gift!

Wayne looked at her and said dumbly, "Sava, I'll give it to you...... Well, I've prepared the Origin Core of the Undead Creature......"

"Here, me!" Miss Zombie's tone was still cold.

"Later, I just have something to arrange for you to do with Zero......"

Wayne wouldn't tell her that he hadn't had time to exchange for a ghost yet.

Thinking like this, he quickly looked at Pavra and asked, "How are the guards?" ”

"Guards?"

Pavra looked at her newly acquired and replied, "That's good." ”

"I'm asking them about their strength."

"Not bad...... It's just weird. ”

Seeing him ask like this, Pavra put it down slightly, and said suspiciously, "Did Claire teach them any breathing techniques before?" ”

"Claire?" Wayne was stunned for a moment, and recalled: "She seems to have mentioned that it is a unique method of improving the strength of the Eternal Life Society. What's wrong? ”

"No, I've always found their origins a little weird."

Origin......

Wayne asked seriously, "Tell me more." ”

"It's not like any of the origin properties I know of, it's very corrosive." Pavra bit her fingers, the feedback of the power of authority in her mind, and said in a strange tone, "I can feel that 'kindness' is warning me that it wants me to destroy them!" ”

"Destroying ......"

Wayne frowned to himself, a warning of even the might of the "good" authority of the Church of the Dawn.

No way......

Could it be that Claire taught them not the so-called Eternal Life Breathing Method, but from her secret identity?!

An ancient legacy of the Night Lady?!
