Beckland, 62 Queen's Road.

Hobert looked at the stack of gold pounds on the altar and smiled slightly, the income of this tarot meeting is not much, and the income from the two transactions of information adds up to a total of 3,300 pounds, plus an extraordinary material.

At the same time, he paid the "hermit" and the "hanged man" 300 pounds each for intelligence, so the final income was 2,700 pounds.

However, the bounty of the two pirates under the "Lieutenant General of Dusk", after deducting Alger's commission, Hobert got 11,000 pounds, according to their original agreement, Hobert's income was not so much, Alger used part of his agreed income to make up a whole number, which can be regarded as a reward for old customers like the "Emperor".

However, Hobert felt that this was more like a gesture of goodwill, fearing that the "Emperor" would be unhappy that day, and also arrested the "hanging man" to receive the bounty, although he Alger was not rewarded, but the "Emperor" did not seem to know this.

Adding up the two incomes, the amount of gold pounds on the altar is quite impressive, a total of 13,700 pounds!

After praising the fool, Hobert put the money on his desk, this time he did not sacrifice to the "State of Disorder", because every time he took money from the "State of Disorder", he had to spend it again so as not to be discovered by the royal family of Beckland.

It's too much trouble to do this, and it's even more troublesome if you're in a hurry to use the money.

He went out and asked Dophys to buy a safe, and specifically instructed him to buy a larger one.

As Hobart had predicted, before the safe could be bought, Lorotta brought the bounty of "Lieutenant General Dusk" Bratov.

Hobert met with the members of the Nightwatchman team in the living room on the first floor, and Lorota, dressed in a neutral outfit, said, "Because I didn't receive the bounty from the Fusak Empire, the total bounty adds up to 72,000 pounds."

"When you received the bounty of the Republic of Antis, you incurred some expenses, but the Church of the Night Goddess helped you pay all the expenses, which can be regarded as a thank you and reward."

As she spoke, Lorota pushed the check to Hobert.

Hobert took the check, confirmed the amount of money, and sighed in his heart that using a check was not as shocking as cash.

Putting away the check, he added, "If I hunt other pirates, will I still be able to ask you for a bounty?" ”

Hobart spread his hands: "You know, my territory is on the sea, and I inevitably deal with pirates. ”

"Absolutely." Lorota said: "For ordinary pirates, we can only help you receive Rune's bounty, and for pirates like this 'Pirate General', we will fight for more national bounties for you." ”

Hober nodded, and he suddenly had the idea of hunting the "blood general".

Having tried before, hunting a "pirate general" is not difficult for him after becoming a demigod, but it is difficult to find those large pirates who are elusive.

And Hobart has a way to find the "blood general", which is equivalent to a lot of gold pounds floating on the sea!

So after sending Lorota away, Hobert pondered the feasibility of hunting the "blood general".

At present, those high-level leaders on the flagship of the "blood general" are no longer his opponents at all, the key is that this guy should be killed, and he can earn a bounty, why not?

So Hobart quickly made up his mind, went to Jeffrey's bedroom through the "Traveler's Gate" in the bedroom, and entered the oil painting to capture the spirituality of a "blood general".

This is different from the fragments of Bratov's ships before, even if the "blood general" Sennior has the corresponding anti-divination ability, for spiritual divination, it is also a divination.

Even Archibald-level anti-divination abilities can't avoid this.

Seeing that he could complete the divination with the "Faceling Necklace", Hobert prepared to go it alone, checked the magical items on his body, and used "travel" to enter the spirit world again.

After a short spin in Byam, Hobart began to navigate with the "Faceling Necklace", eventually stopping in front of a blood-colored sight.

Hobert knew that the "Tree of Flesh" must be outside, and he used the "Faceling Necklace" to divination: "My next move is dangerous. ”

This is a technique he learned from Archibald, and the divination words should be related to himself as much as possible, so that the results of the divination are more credible.

After reciting it seven times, Hobart looked at the hanging necklace, which was spinning in a clockwise direction, and Hobart interpreted it according to the rotational speed: it was dangerous, but it was within the acceptable range.

If the enemy is only a Sequence 5, it shouldn't be dangerous, but Sennior should have a corresponding killer weapon on his own ship.

Don't be afraid, it's a big deal to throw him out of the boat and into the sea.

Hobert put away his necklace, put on his mask, and jerked out of the spirit realm.

Señor, who had already sensed danger, was staring naked in the direction where Hobert appeared, and on the bed next to him, there were two equally naked girls.

Señor, who had sunken eyes and two black beards, immediately disappeared in place after seeing that the person who had come out of the spirit world was the masked youth who had previously boarded the "Tree of Flesh".

Hobert immediately stretched out his hand: "Twisted!" ”

It turned out to be distorted to a specific goal!

Hobert was slightly stunned: Is it a "flash"? Or did you enter the spirit realm?

He crouched down to the place where Señor had disappeared and looked at it, it was an ordinary floor, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.

Hobert smiled helplessly, could it be that he was going to fail this hunt?

He got up and glanced at the two very plump girls, and finally chose to ignore them for the time being, this time he was not here to save people, if he was sure that he couldn't find Seigor, he could consider saving some people.

Hobert was just about to go out to the deck to see if he could find the first mate of the "Tree of Flesh", when suddenly he found that the door was gone!

When he came out of the spirit realm just now, he saw that there was a door.

The cabin and floor quickly turned crimson in color, and a viscous blood-like liquid gushed out of the cracks in the wood.

A strong smell of blood permeated the room.

"Ahh

One of the darker-skinned girls let out a sudden exclamation, and Hobert glanced at it, and it turned out that her hair was stuck to the wall, and the wall began to drag her hair as if it had come to life.

Hobart stepped forward and cut the girl's hair, reminding him of the last time he had seen it at the bottom of the Tree of Flesh's cabin.

He immediately said to another girl who was about to go down to the ground and escape: "Stay in bed and don't get down, and don't touch the wall!" ”

The girl apparently understood Rune and immediately withdrew her foot.

Hobert looked at the wall again, and probably understood that this should be the ability of the "Tree of Flesh", which could turn any cabin into a place to suck human flesh.

But how could such a place trap him?

Hobert used his knife to cut a door-sized exit into the wall, but to his surprise, when the crimson plank fell, it was covered in wriggling flesh that looked like it was in the body of a monster.

Hobert stabbed with a knife, but he couldn't penetrate it at all!

He took a step back, watching as the flesh was squeezing in from the place where he had just chopped in, but his mind was rehashing the experience of boarding the "Tree of Flesh".

First of all, it is impossible for the "blood general" to disappear out of thin air, and the ordinary "resentful soul" can only hide in the spiritual world and move freely in it, but they cannot shuttle in the spiritual world, basically where they enter and come out from there, otherwise it is easy to get lost.

At the level of a demigod, with clear guidance, you can travel through the spiritual realm.

But recalling the scene when the other party blocked himself from the spirit world, Hobart speculated that Señor should have an ability similar to "flashing" on his ship, and could even appear in any corner of the ship through the spirit world.

Hobert asked the two maidens, "Is this Señol's flagship?" Where did you come to this room? ”

The two girls were so frightened by the flesh that they had squeezed in that they didn't even have the strength to put on their clothes.

Hobert immediately exuded the majesty of a demigod, turning the fearful emotions of the two maidens into submission, and they obediently scrambled to answer first: "This is the 'Tree of Flesh'!" ”

"We were sent to the captain's cabin from the lower floor, and the outside should be the deck!"

Hobert was stunned: Since this is the captain's quarters and the structure of the ship, there is now a ball of flesh and blood like a sea monster, which is wrapping the entire structure of the ship?

No, no! Hobert immediately realized that this might not be on the Tree of Flesh anymore, but probably in the belly of some spirit creature.

At this time, the flesh and blood that had been squeezed in from the opening had reached the bedside, and Hobert made the two girls lie together like arhats.

He stepped forward and tied one arm around their waists, easily tucking them under the armpit.

The cooldown time for "Travel" has arrived, but as Hobert expected, "Travel" is not needed at all.

Hobert was not flustered, he had already thought of a way: "Chaos! ”

The flesh in front of him suddenly stopped, and slowly retracted.

Hobert nodded slightly: My conjecture is correct, since the other party is a living being, then using the ability of "chaos" can affect it, make it fall into a state of "chaos", and forget its purpose for a while.

"Twisted!" After seeing that his tentative attack worked, Hobart "distorted" the other party's intentions and thoughts, allowing the other party to devour the few people in the room and let them go.

The flesh quickly vanished, and the ankle-high blood seeped into the cracks in the floor, and the walls gradually regained their original color.

The plank that Hobert had cut just now was probably the location of the door, and at this time, the deck and the sea appeared outside, as well as the blue sky and white clouds on the horizon.

He threw the two teenage girls on the bed, and one "twisted" him to the outside of the captain's room.

The two girls on the bed hurriedly shouted, "Master, please take me with you." ”

Hobert glanced at them, "If you have a chance, I'll take you with me." ”

He knew that there were many girls with such a tragic fate, and he could not save them alone, and if Señor left any clues on them, he would bring danger to himself.

So Hobert put away his sympathy, and still took hunting the "blood general" as the first goal, and saved it if he had the chance, and forget it if he didn't have the chance.

The handsome first mate Nishizawa was already on deck with his sailors.

Seeing that Hobert was out of trouble so quickly, Nishizawa was also a little surprised, and he immediately said, "The captain ordered us to drag him as long as possible!" Attack, take the initiative to attack ......"

Before the other party's words were finished, Hobert had already rushed forward: "Fall! ”

The ferocity on the faces of the sailors disappeared immediately, and they had no desire to fight for a while, because they were already relatively depraved, and many sailor gods fell into a depraved mood, smiling obscenely, and couldn't extricate themselves for a while.

Only Nishizawa quickly allowed himself to be surrounded by crimson moonlight, and he barely managed to break out of his "depraved" state, but by this time Hobert had already come to his front.

Nishizawa hurriedly "flashed" with all his strength, but as a result, Hobert "twisted" the distance between the two people and chased him close again: "Enlarge it!" ”

Hobert magnified the punch he had thrown, Nishizawa managed to avoid it, and the punch hit him in the left shoulder, and he suddenly felt like he had been hit by a cannonball, spun and flew out, slamming into the cabin.

In the process of being knocked away, Nishizawa hit several sailors who were stunned in place, and their bones were broken in many places, and two sailors were even directly stoned to death.

Nishizawa had already been shattered, but he knew that he had to continue to run at this time, and at the same time felt that his entire left arm was wooden and unconscious.

He turned his head and saw that his entire left shoulder had collapsed!

In addition to being frightened, he immediately used his agility to evade Hobert's pursuit.

Hobert simply didn't bother: "Twisted! ”

Nishizawa was surprised to find that he had begun to charge at the enemy!

However, he reacted quickly, quickly drank a bottle of potion, and then used the "Abyss Shackles" on Hobert.

Hobert didn't move, and the "Abyssal Shackles" avoided him perfectly, landing on the deck at his feet.

This is a passive ability of "Chaos", which allows attacks aimed at oneself to hit to the side, but it is only effective for abilities below the level of demigods, and attacks at the demigod level only have a certain probability to be avoided, so you still have to take the initiative to make the opponent's attacks "chaotic" more secure.

Nishizawa's nails grew rapidly, mysterious patterns growing on his nails, and his hands were swirled in a lingering black mist.

He only had his right hand left, so he grabbed Hobart in the chest.

Hobert directly ignored the enemy's offensive and kicked out: "Amplify! ”

Even if he can't kill Nishizawa with this kick, he can still kick him into a serious injury, but what Hobart didn't expect was that Nishizawa turned into a hazy moonlight.

This moonlight shattered not far away, reforming Nishizawa.

Hobert frowned slightly, and chased after him again: "Exploit!" ”

Nishizawa dodged Hobert's attack with Moonshine again, but Hobert "used" the duration of Moonshine to end the moonshine state early.

Just when this moonlight representing Nishizawa had just formed, the process of moonlighting had already ended, leaving Nishizawa standing there with a bewildered expression.

Hobart slapped him over, slapping Nishizawa's head straight back.

In that crimson moonlight, Nishizawa, who was sent out again, was still not dead, he turned his head over, and wanted to continue to escape!

In the process of Nishizawa being sent flying, several sailors were injured again.

Most of the sailors had already woken up from the "degenerate" state at this time, and seeing that the first mate had no room to fight back, they still had no idea of attacking, and immediately scattered and fled!

"Weakened!" Hobert suddenly remembered the characteristics and weaknesses of the vampire, so he "weakened" the crimson moonlight on the deck, and chased after Nishizawa with a "twist", forming a claw with his right hand, and piercing his heart from behind the "Tree of Flesh" first mate.

Nishizawa looked down and saw his dark red, still beating heart in the palm of his hand.

Barely struggling, Nishizawa fell to the ground, dead.

Hobert withdrew his hand and shook the blood from his glove: "The extraordinary person of the Moon Path is really hard to kill!" ”

Sequence 5 of the "Warrior" path and the "Hunter" path, which have powerful attack power, are not so difficult to kill, but Hobert is right when he thinks about it, "Hunter" and "Warrior" are equivalent to losing their biggest support after losing their main attack ability.

The Crimson Scholar, on the other hand, is not known for his powerful attacks, and is not so helpless when encountering a demigod like Hobart who is good at frontal combat.

Then Hobert found two acquaintances among the escaped sailors, namely Captain Oled and Boatswain Gna.

Hobert did not rush to find the "Blood Admiral", but hunted the two pirates and cut off their heads and Nishizawa's heads, put them in a prepared cloth bag, and carried them on their backs.

In the end, the precipitation of the extraordinary characteristics of the three people was accelerated, and their extraordinary characteristics were put away.

It's not that Hobert gave up on Seigor, but he reaped the current results first, so as not to end up hunting the "Blood General".

The three heads in the cloth bag are worth more than 10,000 pounds now, so even if they fail to kill the "blood general" this time, it is worth it to have such an income.

Because enemy reinforcements could come at any time, Hobert was ready to do a simple search, and if he couldn't find a target, he would leave immediately.

So he drew his knife and leisurely entered the cabin, because he had been in it once before, so he was still familiar with the environment inside.

Coming to the hall on the lower floor, which looked like a common room, where the sailors had already fled, Hobert saw Seigno, with his eyes sunken, standing somewhat restrained in front of the wine cabinet.

In front of him sat a man in his thirties, with obvious Southern Continent skin color and facial features, the man was holding a glass of beer and drinking it unhurriedly.

He has delicate skin and bright hair, and every movement looks a little weird.

Señol smiled slightly smug when he saw Hobert here.

The man drinking the beer suddenly said, "Señol's report just now is wrong, you are already a demigod." Well, I think your own 'confusion' influenced the judgment of Señol and the ship. ”

Seigor was visibly surprised, he clearly remembered that this masked youth was a Sequence 5! He had been waiting for seven or eight years, and he had no hope of being promoted to a demigod, why did this masked young man have a chance to be promoted to a demigod so quickly?

Hobert slowly put away the knife: "I also remember, you are a demigod of the 'Rose School'!" ”

During the previous battle between the Balk family and the "Rose School" in the Southern Continent, Hobert had seen this demigod from the "True Vision" and knew that it was a Sequence 4 "puppet".

The "puppet" glanced at Hobart with some surprise: "You know me?" Yes, you have our 'seal', you should have a connection to the Balk family! ”

Previously, in front of the "Blood Admiral", Hobert used the "1-102" captured from the "Rose School".

This is also the reason why this "puppet" was able to appear here so quickly, and the "Rose School" realized that the "founder" had found a family member and wanted to target Seignol.

So they provided protection, and Señor performed a simple ritual that would guide the demigods of the "Rose School" from the spirit realm.

Hobert smiled as he lifted the seal from the gloves on both hands, and reached out with his left hand to grab the "puppet".

After becoming a demigod, Hobert's seal on the Level 1 seal no longer needs to be wrapped in "Order Crystal" as before, and only needs to use the power of "Order Crystal" to control the "Order Country" to seal the seal.

And at the level of a demigod, Hobert's use of the "State of Order" in the real world has been enhanced, so the power shown is no more and no less, unless it is an angel or above in the same or adjacent way, it is difficult to notice the particularity of the "State of Disorder", and will only think that it is a strange magical item.

This made the process of Hobert's release of the seal much easier, as before, he had to take out the corresponding seal from the box made of "order crystals", which was easy to miss the fighter.

Now it's very simple, and the seal can be lifted with a single stroke of the mind.

The glove on Hobert's left hand is the seal "1-101" of the "Thief" pathway, and the glove on his right hand is the seal "1-107" of the "Arbiter" pathway.

He reached out to the "puppet" to steal his extraordinary abilities!

This demigod-level seal allows Hobert to choose the extraordinary ability he wants to steal, and among the enemies who are also demigods, he is 100% successful in stealing it for the first time!

The "puppet" had long been wary of Hobert, and when he saw him raise his hand, he immediately opened his mouth, but he did not utter a single syllable.

But Hobart opened his mouth and uttered a language that no one could understand, as if it were the most vicious curse in the world!

He chose to steal the power of the "puppet" curse!

The puppet was slightly stunned, and suddenly jumped into a reflective wine bottle to avoid the curse.

But Señor was not so lucky, although he quickly changed into the state of "resentful spirit", he still stretched out his shriveled hand from the spirit world, tore off part of the "resentful spirit" and disappeared.

At Seigno's cries of pain, he returned to his normal state, his left arm was gone, and blood was running down his shoulder.

Taking advantage of this gap, Hobert raised his right hand: "It is forbidden to possess yourself here!" ”

With this ban, the possession of the opposing "puppet" will encounter great resistance, and the possession of Señol will fail 100%.

The "puppet" emerges from the bottle and lets out a screech at Hobart as several ice arrows shoot at him.

As Hobert dodged the attack, the "puppet" immediately said to Seigor, who was panting, "Go and summon Lord Jack!" ”

Jax is a Sequence 3 "Silent Disciple" of the "Rose School"!
