Chapter 114: The Spiritual Boat
The cascading blocks of color flew rapidly in front of Crane, and he himself retreated at great speed.
Following Mr. Azik, he has traveled through the spirit world many times, and even used the "Black Emperor" card to transform into a spirit body, and actively looked for creatures in the spirit world that could be messengers, and he is not unfamiliar with this kind of scene.
Therefore, he knew better that every second of being "exiled" here, every meter he flew over, meant a hundred times the distance in the real world.
He's getting farther and farther away from Angel!
Just when he was anxious, dancing in the spirit world but with nowhere to focus, suddenly a flower appeared in front of him, and all kinds of bright color patches turned into a pitch-black sky and a sea reflecting crimson moonlight.
Smack-
He plunged into the water, flipped a few times, quickly swam back to the surface, and poked his head out.
That "arbiter" really just "exiled" him without causing other harm?
Flapping on the water and looking around, Crane's weak night vision did not find any ships or islands, but he was a mid-sequence extraordinary, and he had made a lot of plans before diving into the Black Death of the "Sick Lieutenant General", so he naturally had a corresponding way to fall into the water.
He stretched his hand out of the water and snapped his fingers, and a flame flower suddenly exploded dozens of meters above his head, and then used this as the landing point, Crane's body jumped from the water to the sky.
"Smack", again, he continued to rise dozens of meters in the same way, reaching an altitude of almost 100 meters.
After a quick look around, Crane quickly determined his position, about 20 nautical miles away, the nameless island where he had just met the demigod of the "Arbiter" loomed in the moonlight, and the sails of the ghost ship "Blue Avenger" were only a small point at this distance, and if the moonlight was any darker, he might not be able to detect it with his eyesight.
However, it was twenty nautical miles......
Klein's heart, like his body, fell from a great height, smashed into the water, and turned into a paper figure soaked in seawater.
Having avoided the fall damage, he quickly retrieved a few charms from his pocket and activated them one by one to strengthen himself.
"Breathing Underwater", "Ocean Affinity", ...... One by one, the charms he made using the power bestowed by the "sea god" were sacrificed, and he was able to gain the ability to move freely underwater.
It's a pity that it's not as fast as Angel's "Kraken Form", so the swimming speed is not too fast......
Thinking of Angel, he felt a pain in his heart again, and hurriedly found the right direction, shaved his hands and feet, and quickly swam towards the nameless island in a posture that was not elegant.
If he is on land, he can immediately enter the gray mist space, divinate Angel's current situation, use the Seagod's Scepter to inflict a more powerful blessing on himself, and even incarnate as the "Black Emperor", bringing all the magical items on his body to reach the strongest combat state......
It's a pity that in the sea, he didn't even have "wriggling hunger", so he could only use some spells prepared in advance, and he couldn't even rush to her side as soon as possible......
It would take at least an hour to swim back to the island, and although the "arbiter" did not seem to be very hostile, her very existence was extremely dangerous...... Klein was both remorseful and angry, regretting that he had not been fully prepared, that his divination was not detailed and comprehensive enough, that he was angry that he was powerless in battle, that he could not use the gray mist, that he had sacrificed "wriggling hunger", and that he could only fight in the battle against the demigods.
She was so eager to fight close to her because she felt that even if she couldn't fight, she would create a chance for me to escape...... Thinking of this, Crane gritted his teeth in the water.
Suddenly, under the effect of "ocean affinity", a membrane grew in his eyes, and Crane, who was able to see objects in the water, felt that the blue and almost black sea water in front of him turned into large patches of bright color, and then the back of his neck tightened, and he was lifted out of the water and re-entered the spirit world.
"Mr. Azik!"
Without looking back, he knew who was coming.
"What's going on?"
Azik, who was not even wearing a tuxedo and trousers, asked calmly, letting go of the hand holding Klein and holding his shoulder instead, and the two of them floated in the illusory, strange spirit space.
He must have received my call for help while he was resting...... Klein's heart was hot, but he didn't care about being polite, and hurriedly told the other party in detail what happened tonight.
"Arbitrator ......"
Hearing the battle process of the black-haired, golden-eyed woman who was unscathed under the "Calamity" spell and casually banished Crane, Azk frowned and muttered.
"I fought a royal demigod in the underground ruins near Beckland, who was the 'Arbiter' in Sequence 4, the 'Law Mage', but I am sure that he would not have survived if the spell that destroyed the Black Death had hit him.
"I'm afraid the 'arbiter' you're talking about, I'm afraid it's not just sequence 4."
Crane looked suspiciously in the direction of the spirit island, which was hazy under the cascading patches of color.
He couldn't understand why on such a desert island, he would encounter a Sequence 3 Extraordinary, and even repeatedly made provocative requests for them to "attack themselves with all their might".
"But it's okay, we're going to get Angel back."
Patting him on the shoulder as if reassuringly, Azk reached out and pressed it on top of his head, then remembered that he had forgotten to put on his hat when he had arrived in a hurry, chuckled, and moved forward sharply.
"Be careful, it may be a bit bumpy, our target is not on that island."
————
As soon as she opened her eyes, Angel knew that she was no longer in the real world.
Although the table in front of him, the chair under him was in normal shape, the color was not strong, and the surrounding wooden walls were very textured, not illusory and transparent, Angel could still distinguish the difference between them and real objects after entering and leaving the spirit world several times.
In this death, didn't I go to the ruined city, but to the depths of the spiritual realm?
She got up from her chair and tried to summon a pinch of black flame, and found that it was not the same as the previous death, that she still had spirituality, that she could use extraordinary abilities, and that she was surrounded by ......
She raised her gaze and looked around, and suddenly found the woman with black hair and golden eyes and a pale yellow dress standing aside, looking at her silently.
After Angel was "imprisoned" just now, it was this woman named Anne who got close to her body and grabbed her, making her unconscious.
Wait, losing consciousness...... Am I not dead?
She reacted, calmed down the panic in her heart, pretended to be indifferent on her face, and asked:
"Where is this? Why didn't it kill me? ”
"Why should I kill you?"
Anne was still barefoot, walking on the wooden floor, and came to the center of the room, Angel noticed that the other party was only about 1.6 meters tall, half a head lower than herself, except for a yellow dress, she did not wear any jewelry, and she was not as simple as people of this era.
Even in the spirit realm, those feet were spotless, completely different from the other barefoot woman Angel had seen, Lady Arianna.
"As I said, as long as you do a small favor and attack me as best you can, that's all...... Of course, you did, and I'm interested in the last spell you used, can you try again here? ”
Speaking of the "Calamity" spell, Anne's face was filled with excitement and anticipation.
"Didn't I use it? You're unscathed, and that's the result. ”
Angel pursed his lips, not showing the slightest interest in the other party's "playing with prey".
"That's because in the real world...... It might work here, try again, just once! ”
After urging a few words, seeing that Angel was unmoved, the "arbitrator's" face sank.
"That man is your lover, I banished him to the void, and if you don't agree to my request, his life will be lost."
Wife...... She's talking about Klein?
Angel's heart moved, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he pretended not to hear.
This is most likely a scam to me...... Unlike the "captivity" used on me, Crane was "exiled", most likely from the space where the island is located, and if Mr. Azik can find him, he may have a chance to save me...... Angel thought about it, and seeing that Anne's face became more and more gloomy, she asked casually:
"What if the spell still doesn't work? For example, you killed Ling like before, but you immediately resurrected her? ”
"That talisman of yours is very powerful, if it was an ordinary high-order extraordinary, if it was indeed hit, it should have died. Of course, most demigods have various ways to save their lives, and spells are difficult to hit directly. ”
That's why I use it personally, if I throw it directly, I'm afraid I won't be able to hit anyone except for the high-sequence extraordinary who wants to commit suicide...... Angel sighed.
"Moreover, it was not a resurrection, but your charm did not hit my being, which, as you can see, is in the spirit realm."
It turns out that she is also a spirit creature...... Isn't there too many spirit creatures on this island?
However, she is very different from the spirit creature of the "Gazer", who is attacked and killed in reality and does not "resurrect in the spirit world", while according to Anne, as long as she does not attack her spirit body, she is immortal in reality......
"So you 'imprisoned' me just so that I could use the 'Calamity' spell on you in the spirit world?"
Angel asked, seeing that the other party nodded approvingly, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly:
"You're not trying to kill yourself, are you? Is there any need to trouble others with this kind of thing? ”
Her joking words silenced Anne.
"Follow me."
After a few moments, the "arbiter" beckoned, and was the first to push open the door and walk out of the cramped room in the spirit realm.
Angel's curiosity at this moment overwhelmed her vigilance, she touched the "Good Luck" revolver and the "knight's bracelet" on her body, and found that they were in her place, so she raised her heel and left the room.
Outside the door was a long, narrow hallway, also with wooden walls and ceilings, flanked by the same doors, all closed.
It's a bit like the interior of the Blue Avenger's cabin...... Wait, this can't be a ship, right?
Angel followed Anne through the corridors and stairs that were dyed with a bit of unreal color but still had texture, and as the other party pushed open a double door, he stepped onto the wide platform.
No, it's not a platform, it's a full deck!
The thick mast stands in the middle of the deck, and the sail ropes are tied to the fixed points, extending upwards, and the dark sails above the head are high, and there is no wind to automatic.
There is no sea around it, and there are illusory, overlapping patches of color above and below, spreading to infinity.
Angel's location is a ship floating above the spirit world!
