The Shaman Mask symbolizes Apche, the god of death of the Azic civilization.

It was a cursed thing that was born at the same time as the tarsal god when the city of Tarrasco that Byron and his party were passing through was destroyed.

Both also carry the resentment of the tens of thousands of inhabitants of the city-state against the invaders, but one is a cursed spirit and the other is a cursed thing.

As long as the recognized person sings the last history of the city-state full of blood and tears.

You can use the mask's four abilities: Deity Symbol, Psychic Medium, Concealment Barrier, and Soul Armor (Chapter 139).

If it weren't for this treasure, Bruch wouldn't have been so easy to pretend to be the pirate general Bill, and finally got the beauty by mistake.

Accept that enchanting and charming best dancer [Fairy] Rigelle.

One of the abilities is [Divine Symbol], and the effect is that it can synesthesia with the god of death, Apche, and borrow some of his powers.

After the ability was activated, a large stream of viscous black qi suddenly surged out of the mask, quickly turning into black feathers, crowns, and feather coats

Added an extra layer of shamanic outfit to Byron's Hunt Knight.

It's just that unlike the pirate general [Hook] who was killed by this cursed thing in the first place, his body was covered with rotten sores and rotten flesh after wearing a mask.

This part of the power that belongs to the Azk Grim Reaper is as tame as a loyal dog in front of Byron.

"It is clear that the Azk Empire and the Old World had very different forms of government.

The emperor is the ruler of the people and the great shaman of the gods and the communicating gods.

After successfully building a [Golden Code] and nominally establishing the Holy Golden Empire, it was even more clear that it had the triple ruling power of heaven, earth, and man.

Not only the emperor of the living and the dead, but also the theoretical king of the gods.

Even though the Azik gods are from the god of tyranny under the [Lord of Skins], all of them have been sacrificed to the [Serpent of a Thousand Faces Hydra], so I don't feel like a god-king.

But the occult person is still there, and that's enough. ”

Byron's rank had already reached the third rank, and with the dignity of Emperor Azk, it was easy to communicate with the will that had fallen into a deep sleep.

The power of death has come with a bang.

The knight's spear in his hand quietly appeared with a black ominous glow.

In an instant, Velasquez, who was rushing straight at the opposite side, no longer had the fearlessness he had just now, he only felt his scalp explode, and his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat.

Even though he didn't know what abilities Byron used, the real and strong premonition of death still made the hairs on his body stand on end.

It's just that how fast did the two sides charge each other?

The Dry Bone War Horse can't ignore inertia like Byron, where can he easily change his moves?

"Ahh

With a scream, he turned over and dismounted and threw himself to the ground, and a portal opened simultaneously in the shadows on the ground.

As long as he rushes in, he can immediately teleport to the side of the quasi-sword saint Herman, allowing him to escape.

The next moment, the others did rush through the Shadow Gate, but not completely.

Byron swept by, his wind-swept spear swept across his lower body, severing both thighs and falling to the ground with a "snap".

Blood spurted from the aorta.

Obviously, this time his immortal body never took effect again.

Even the contract card with the [Tarsus God] painted on it shattered on the spot, returning the ability of immortality to the cursed spirit in the void who had a mortal vendetta against the Castilians.

The next moment, a terrifying howl sounded from another corner of the battlefield.

Velasquez clutched his legs with a pale face and fell out of the Shadow Portal.

"Your Excellency the Governor!"

"Defense, defense!"

Would-be Sword Saint Herman and the Governor's Guard of Velasquez ignored the attack from Byron's side behind them, and immediately returned to their defenses, and gathered around him.

Another golden card flew out, activating a healing technique he had fraudulently obtained from a [Raven Doctor] [Stimulate Life Force], and barely managed to stop the bleeding in the major arteries.

The two sides of the battle returned to a state of confrontation.

After fighting for so long, even with the protection of the cursed gold, the Governor's Guard had shrunk by a full third.

This is thanks to the fact that the soldiers have learned to be clever, and they have put the gold coins directly into their mouths, or even swallowed them altogether.

Although the bodies of a group of people are getting worse and worse, to the point that they don't need makeup to pretend to be ghosts, they have not further increased the casualties after all.

The main casualties are still from demonic weapons such as the [Sun Sacred Sword].

With a larger number of pirate officers and a new force that had just been recruited from the Barbary pirates, Deathwing's Deathwing under Byron was much better.

It's the octopus man Xiaoba, who is still addicted to vegetables, in order to sharpen his eight-seven-six-five-four swordsmanship in actual combat, his wrists and feet are missing a seven-seven-eighty-eight.

"My legs——!

Damn Wild Hunt, don't be complacent, I haven't lost yet. ”

Just when cold sweat was pouring out on his forehead, Velasquez, who had broken his defense, was ready to open the last hole card desperately.

As if sensing his master's desire for physical integrity and victory, the Faust Pact in red on a black background automatically levitated beside him.

A pure black figure with horns on its head and thin cicada wings on its back, but no facial features, emerged from it and flew up and down around him.

This is the [Evil Spirit: Contract Devil] that was degenerated from Flint's dark side.

At the same time as the Fall, this evil spirit has also lost the reason for human thinking, cannot communicate, cannot negotiate.

Only the strongest instinct remains, according to the established rules of the demon seed - cannibalism!

At this time, Velázquez is the "breeder" and "long-term meal ticket" it has chosen for itself.

Capturing his master's wishes, he reached out and touched the parchment page lightly, and a new agreement immediately appeared on the Faust contract:

"Sacrifice only a thousand people, and the Faust Pact will use the almighty Alchemy of Life to grant you two wishes.

The contract supports the borrowing model, paying 10% interest for each day of delay.

If the contractor breaks the contract, the soul will be eaten by this contract. ”

Although Velázquez did not take over the responsibility of guarding the [Lantern Man] like Byron, it does not mean that there is no price at all.

As long as Byron inherits Faust's destiny and is a person who pursues truth and freedom, he can use the "Faust Contract" in his hand at will.

And every time Velasquez uses it, there is a price or sacrifice.

Of course, its ability to make a direct cameo appearance with the help of the [Philosopher's Stone] is an ability that the white contract does not have.

"The price?"

The bruises on Velasquez's forehead jumped, but he still didn't hesitate to sign his name on the loan agreement.

It is always much better to spend other people's lives to do your own business than to spend your own money to do your own business.

As long as this battle can be won, it is only a piece of cake to spill a huge amount of gold and silver, and let the slave traders go to the indigenous islands to catch a thousand people as sacrifices.

"The contract has been made, and it cannot be reversed."

Faust immediately spat out a golden-red [Philosopher's Stone], bounced twice on the ground, and then exploded into a huge alchemy array.

Obviously, during these years of stationing, Flint himself has also acquired a lot of high-quality stones.

It's all cheaper for that demon.

The red lightning exploded, and Velasquez's severed leg began to grow back rapidly, and it only took a few breaths to completely regain its integrity.

And there is no consumption of the lifespan of the cell itself.

The blood that was spilled on the ground was not wasted.

Catalyzed by the alchemy of life, it multiplied rapidly, first wriggling like thousands of tadpoles, and then gathering into a clump of indescribable strange flesh and blood.

It then proceeds to differentiate into muscles, internal organs, and bones

Of course, Byron could not have allowed the enemy to calmly counterattack, although he was one step slower than the Shadow Gate, and he had already chased after them.

"Dying, let's give me all the way."

Riding a war horse, he sped through the barrage of arrows from Velasquez's [Shadow Serpent's Breath: Ten Thousand Arrows].

Andrew, another Storm Admiral behind him, followed suit, and his uncle and nephew's [fidget guns] swept towards them.

The extremely powerful sword qi turned into a wind blade like a thousand knives, cutting several transcendent officers on the periphery into minced meat on the spot.

Only a few bloody gold coins fell to the ground.

He was desperately stopped by the invincible quasi-sword saint Herman in close combat, and Velasquez, who threw a large number of cards.

The battle is scorching.

After a frantic wriggling of flesh and blood on the ground, they grew into skinless giants with a height of more than three meters.

The whole body is blood-colored, and there are no facial features or hair on the head, only a vertical hideous mouth grows in the middle of the face, full of sharp teeth.

Grab your own vertebrae and pull them out slowly.

In the flash of red lightning, each turned into a disgusting butcher's knife connected by flesh and bones, full of rib jagged teeth.

With such a knife, no matter how powerful your "living dead" is, you will be cut in two on the spot.

Moreover, the [Contract Devil] also inlaid a cursed gold coin on the forehead of each giant, adding another layer of strengthening.

Seeing this extremely evil scene in front of him, Byron's heart jumped.

"Is this the alchemy of life, the refining of the human body?

Even if it is not refined into a complete human with a soul like the Three Pearls of Alchemy, and touches the realm of the Creator, it is still a simplified version.

Cultivating this forbidden knowledge to the extreme, can you really obtain this foul-level ability?

In this world where the crowd is king, if you can take the corpses of the enemy and build an army of clones, wouldn't it be invincible in the world sooner or later? ”

"Whew!"

A total of dozens of monster "sons" born from the blood of Velasquez raised the flesh and bone butcher knives in their hands and charged Byron and Andrew.

The uncle and nephew were suddenly like two leaves, drifting backwards on the howling air current.

Thorn ——!

The huge flesh butcher's knife plowed a deep furrow where they had stood.

This power has clearly exceeded the limits of human beings, and eighty percent of them have activated their full life force in a short period of time, and they will soon die.

But before they die, it's enough to wreak havoc.

At least apart from the two [Storm Admirals], no one dared to say that they would survive until they self-destructed.

At this moment, Violet's cry came from behind him:

"Byron, get out of the way!"

Byron's body was faster than he could react, and he pulled Andrew next to him into the air.

Looking back, she found that she didn't know when, Violet quietly ran to the group of insects, and collected all the piles of philosopher's stones they produced.

Although none of them can compare to the quality of the contract devil, the quality is not enough to make up the quantity.

The girl threw them into the air, and also unfolded a huge alchemy array.

In the flash of lightning, hundreds of bronze cannons with golden light came out of the ground, aiming the muzzles of the guns at the battlefield in an encirclement manner.

This game is [Orthodox Alchemy] vs [Alchemy of Life].

The Philosopher's Stone is universal in the world, allowing Violet, a third-order master craftsman, to exert amazing creativity far beyond the limits of her abilities.

"I'll give you guidance, command the storm elves!"

When Byron saw so many cannons, he was overjoyed, and for the first time, he showed off the excellent cannon skills of a Storm Admiral.

In fact, he used an original skill that refers to his own [Gun Fighting Technique] that can be turned by himself, and he has a brain-opening mind.

Each of the storm spirits, which resembled thunderbirds and perished as they lived, drilled into a cannonball.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

At the same time as the artillery fired in unison, the fire burst out, and the shells flew out of the barrel.

The storm spirits also "drove" their own shells under Byron's orders, giving the car a side wind force throughout the process, fine-tuning the trajectory and making the hit rate skyrocket.

This was also called "manual guidance", "artificial guidance", and "kamikaze bombs" by Byron!

Relying on this skill, as long as a Storm Admiral has enough "manuals", it is enough to achieve the precision micro-manipulation of the Grand Fleet.

There is no other problem, but it is a bit of a waste of "hands".

This is the pinnacle of their sword-winning!
