Chapter 167 Prelude to Thunderstorm

406
In the early morning, the Church of the Waves.

Alger Wilson, who came to receive the bounty, heard a rather important piece of news from the bishop of the diocese, Chogori:

Laticia Dorella of the "Mos Ascetic Order" entered the deep jungle of Simim Island under the guise of being an archaeologist.

She didn't know what she did, causing the "Sea God" Kavitua, who had been severely injured and hidden for many years, to collapse, and frantically searched for opportunities to continue her own existence.

Rumor has it that this evil spirit, which called itself the "God of the Sea", was discovered a long time ago in the Rorsted Islands, and was defeated by two cardinals and strong men from the military with the help of corresponding sealed items. It could only barely escape and hide... The situation has been maintained for more than 100 years without essential changes, so why is it suddenly about to collapse, unable to maintain its own existence?Alger frowned slightly, thinking about what happened recently that was different from the past.

"A situation deliberately created by the 'Mose Penance Order'?"

"But why didn't they do this in the previous 100 years?"

"In order to cooperate with my other plans?"

Alternating speculation and doubt, Alger suddenly noticed an important factor.

The biggest and most fundamental difference between the recent past and the past 100 years is:

The "world" has come to Bayam!
Mister Fool's favored person has come to Rorsted Islands!

Wherever he appears, does it mean that a great event will happen or be brewed in that place?In the past, there was the great smog of Backlund, in the middle was the change in Bansy Port, and now it is the dying struggle of "Sea God" Kavetuva and the unknown plot of "Moss Penance Order"... No, a more accurate description should be Yes, wherever a major event is brewing or about to happen, Mister Fool's followers will come there!They accepted the arrangement of Mr. "Fool" and chased the activities of those secret organizations and evil angels!After changing his thinking, Alger suddenly realized that he had grasped the truth.

It's not that wherever the "world" goes, accidents will happen, but where accidents are about to happen, "world" and other loved ones will appear there!

……

Klein suddenly felt his nose itchy, but Danitz was right next to him, and sneezing would ruin the image of a "ruthless adventurer", so he forcefully suppressed the sneeze.

He was a little restless this morning, and got up earlier than usual, because he had a very bad dream last night.

In the dream, there were layers of dark clouds in the sky, and the sky was extremely dark.

The heavy rain was majestic, blocking the view, almost becoming a real curtain.

In the port of Bayam, the azure water rises rapidly against common sense.

The rain continued, and the sea level gradually reached the level of the embankment. Many places in the city accumulated water, and the environment was extremely depressing, forming streams beside the road.

One by one, frenzied and numb locals in taraba shirts and tattered jackets came to the edge of the cliff or onto the embankment and jumped into the sea one after another.This seemed to be a grand sacrifice, their flesh and skin quickly lost moisture, and when they fell into the sea, they had already turned into long-weathered mummy.

There was chaos everywhere on the street, people were crying and killing each other, and everything went crazy.

Whoa!

Huge waves hit, the sea water surpassed the horizon, and freighters and merchant ships were swept into the city by the sea water.

——For a fortuneteller, the symbolism of this picture is already too obvious.

Klein and Danitz stood by the window together and looked at the deep black sky in the distance, what they saw in their dreams echoed in their minds.

At this moment, there was a thunderclap in the cloudy sky, the heavy rain cloud was torn apart by the wind, and the morning light fell, Bayam seemed to be shrouded in holy light.

Seeing this, Danitz heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile:
"I was really worried just now that the crazy 'Sea God' would be bad for Bayam."

"But here's Ion Cotman. The captain says not even the Lord of the Five Seas or the Queen of Mystery can beat him at sea. Because, because—"

"He is the demigod of Sequence 3, and the name of the potion is...'Sea King'!"

Hearing this name, Klein almost immediately thought of the honorable title of "Lord of Storms" - Lord of the Air, Emperor of the Sea, Lord of Natural Disasters, God of Storms! The "Sailor" path began to appear in Sequence 3 with the similar authority of the "Emperor of the Sea". Coupled with the geographical environment of the ocean, aquatic animals, and weather, the corresponding authority and status at sea of ​​the "Sea King" sequence are already obvious.

As an important fulcrum of the colonial rule of the Loen Kingdom, Bayam must have more than one high-sequence powerhouse to achieve balance.In addition to the "Sea King" Yan Cottman of the Church of the Storm, there should also be a strong man who has a clearer position and belongs to the royal family or the Loen military.They are enough to ensure that Bayam will not become a lost underwater monument, but the extent to which the disaster will be contained is unknown.

One is the "Sea King" who is in good condition and has many sealed items, and the other is the "Sea God" who is at most a Sequence 3 and is about to collapse. The outcome is clear at a glance.

Although there are still many bad possibilities, the final outcome should not change... Klein and Danitz both thought of this incident at the same time, and their moods were slightly relaxed.

At this moment, Bayam suddenly had a strong wind, and the dark clouds surged like the sea, slowly filling the gap in the sky that spread the morning light.The entire Bayam suddenly lost its light and returned to the haze.

Thunder and lightning swam through the clouds, and the silver-white lightning tore through the darkness. It happened to be a huge winding sea snake roaring towards the sky!

When Danitz saw this scene, his face was pale by the lightning, and he subconsciously looked at the empty bottle of Langzi that he drank last night, and began to think about how likely the captain would find it if he put the suicide note in it.

Whether to confess to the captain in the suicide note is a question.

Beside him, Gehrman Sparrow's expression also became more serious. He bounced a gold coin, but he failed to catch it when it fell.

He frowned. The middle-sequence Extraordinary's body control was quite precise, and it was impossible for him to be unable to catch the coin he tossed.

There is only one reason for this situation, his divination failed!
The divination he just made was "Yan Kottman can defeat Kavitua"...it involves high-level power and variables, and perhaps only going to Origin Castle can get the correct answer.Klein let out a breath slowly, and began to think about self-protection plans.

407
Bernadette, who used magic to change the appearance of the ship and herself, stood at the bow of the ship and looked in the direction of "Bayam", the capital of the Rorsted Islands. She was horrified to see that the entire Bayam had been completely covered by lead-colored clouds. .

Looking at the sky in other directions, it is still blue sky and white clouds, and the morning light is bright.

"The rain cloud is still expanding..."

"An out-of-control crazy sailor pathway saint can have such terrifying power at sea..."

With the ability shown by the "God of the Sea" Kavitua, combined with the ocean environment, if you have never seen real gods such as "Eternal Blazing Sun" and "True Creator", it is not too much to worship him, believe in him, and pray to him. incomprehensible things...

Many gods in primitive worship may be of this rank, and there is a high probability that they are not even angels.

Her eyes turned purple, watching Bayam's mystical atmosphere from a distance, she saw two auras in the clouds were opposing each other, one was violent and crazy, while the other seemed much restrained.The scruples "Sea King" and the out-of-control Kalvetua temporarily tied!

It does appear that there are more bad developments to come from this disaster.

Just when Bernadette was about to take a closer look, a certain gaze swept past her, causing her to stand up on the spot in shock.

……

The King of Decline found a good place on Bayam's lighthouse, and he sat facing out on the railing, overlooking the entire Bayam.

Just last night, the passenger ship docked.At [-]:[-] this afternoon, passengers will return to the flight.

He pulled out the thread belonging to "Bernadette Gustave" from the air, twirled it with his fingers, and then accurately found Bernadette's ship docked at the port of a small island near Bayam.

On the big ship dozens of kilometers away, Bernadette was pacing in surprise.

"It appeared, the branch I wanted..."

He grabbed another thread and said to himself, "Is this 'Death' and 'Immortal King'?"

"The one chasing Bernadette - this should be the Undead King, right?"

Although Bernadette has already done memory processing to the members sent out, making them unclear about the path of the sealed item they are carrying, and ignorant of themselves, the target, and the purpose of the captain, but the "telling" attracted by the connection of mysticism "Death" is a very intelligent ship. Seeing the subordinates of "Queen of Mysteries" sailing on the sea with the sealed items of the same path, it is like an extraordinary animal seeing a trap-while fresh meat is placed, there is a trap below it. beast trap.

Will the spiritual intuition of human beings respond to the sealed item?

The answer is yes, but very weakly.

Anyway, the information has not yet been obtained. It is a beautiful thing to use Bernadette, who is searching for information, to find Agaritu and not have to pay for it.The capricious, keen on crossing rivers and demolishing bridges, the foreign god thought for a while, grabbed the thread, and pulled it hard.

His spirituality immediately walked along the thin line to the end, flashed across the sky above Bayam, and ran all the way to the sea area farther than Bernadette's docking point, and then - snap, he saw a A multi-masted sailing ship with black and red as the main color, with white bone carvings fixed on the bow, the sailors walked back and forth on it, as if they were making tactical preparations.The hull is either black or red, red is like fresh blood, black is like blood that has been carved into the wood grain for hundreds of years, except that it does not have the original color of the wood.

Although it was eerie and terrifying, with terrifying malice everywhere, it no longer had the legendary "skeleton-covered" appearance.

"Yo," He said, "Death."

His temporary body is still in Bayam's lighthouse, waiting for the rainstorm and tsunami, and the invisible will has already floated to the deck following the connection with the mysticism.As a matter of course, he heard the ship's steam power core vibrating at a higher frequency than before, as if it was the frantic heartbeat of a nervous person.

But this sealed item is smarter than he thought, and the devil's adaptability and supremacy of strength are also virtues since ancient times.

After confirming that he was unable to resist, "Death" immediately expressed his willingness to surrender.

It is very convenient to talk to smart things. The "Death" pointed out the location of Agaritu, not in the captain's cabin, but in a hidden place in the cabin below, next to the cabins of the first mate and second mate .

The walking sailors prayed to the "Great Death", and the first mate who happened to meet was also muttering orders from the "Death". The real body is actually a ship rather than a person.

Perhaps it is precisely because Agaritu will be changed after death that he becomes the "king of the undead".

So soon, Agaritu, who was adjusting his state in his cabin to deal with a possible battle, felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right. He stood up suspiciously, reached out to touch the weapon on the table, and then his shoulder broke, The arm was missing.

"Not strong enough."

His two arms were floating in the air, held by a faint shadow. The shadow held his arms and said in the tone of a merchant looking at the meat on the chopping board:

"An 'Apostle of Desire'..."

"Sure enough, only the level of a pirate general."

"Just right, if you can't be too outstanding, then be a 'devil'."

Blood spurted from the broken part of his shoulder, and he had temporarily lost his ability to think due to the impact, he had forgotten to run, he had forgotten to shout, he had forgotten even fear.He stared blankly at the shadow coming in front of him, his arm was floating in the air, and it was still connected to himself half a minute ago.Shadows reach out or tentacles wrap around him, and he loses consciousness.

His soul was pulled out, and his body was kneaded into a ball of mud, together with his arms.

During the process, all the bones were picked out to prevent them from being crushed. After pinching for a while, Wai Shen felt that something was wrong with the hand, so he suddenly realized: I didn't pick out the clothes just now.

But it's okay, it's not a big problem.In the past, when I made the container for myself, I tried to perfectly reproduce the appearance of "Edward Vaughn", which took a lot of time to pinch people.But the joy of pinching people is always in the process rather than the result, and the result is sometimes unavoidable.In the end, the fallen king chose a simpler way: use the soul as a mold, and directly stuff a ball of living flesh into it. As long as the soul is still there, the flesh will always look like this.

The King of Decay is quite confident in his manual ability, and the source of his confidence is the superb fine-tuning technology he has cultivated through repeated reshaping of out-of-control containers for more than 1000 years.

Most of the time, the container will go out of control and become indescribable, but occasionally it will appear as a human being with some inhuman features. At this time, these redundant parts must be carefully removed, such as digging out horns or eyes, adding wings and The growing wing bones are cut off, and sometimes parts of the limbs have to be broken off to replace them with new ones to ensure they can be reused.

He kneaded the meat ball like clay, and the meat ball kept dripping red blood like clothes with too much water.During the process, he pulled out the clothes inside and threw them away, and by the way, he prayed to himself who was still in prison for a Sequence 4 characteristic.

Add the "devil" feature, soul, and consciousness to the meat ball, and a brand new Agarito is completed.

……

The vision turned black, the Extraordinary characteristics were fused, and the devil who shared a part of his identity skipped the necessary ceremony.

Sitting up from the red bed, he found that the vision of the eyes was a little too high - the rapid regeneration of the flesh had caused some mistakes.So he had to snap off the eyes that grew on his forehead, cut a hole where the left eye should be, and stuff the red eyeballs in.

The eyeballs grew quickly, but the optic nerves were not fully connected, blood flowed from the forehead into the eyes, and the eyes turned black.After the mental fusion was completed, he noticed that his hands also looked a little strange, with an extra finger on his right hand.So he gnawed, bit off the two short knuckles from the root, click, click, ground the bones and meat into pieces and chewed them repeatedly in his mouth. After swallowing, the crack on his hand had already grown.

He took another moment to open his stomach and adjust his misplaced guts, which led him to swear that he was acting more like a mystic than a demon now.But this is the fastest and most efficient way to adjust. When everything was over, he dug out a suit of clothes he often wore from the closet in this cabin, then squatted down, and knocked on the floor with his hands.

"So."

"Now, the 'Undead King' is a real devil," Agaritu said.

The candlestick in the room was lit with a snap, and a person's upper body was reflected in the mirror mounted on the side wall.

Dark complexion, not so deep eyebrows, black hair.Against the backdrop of his facial features, Agaritu looked more like a tanned half-breed from the Northern Continent than a native of the sea or the Southern Continent.

He took advantage of the opportunity to look at himself in the mirror for a moment, then put on his coat and boat cap, grabbed the rapier on the table and hung it around his waist, and walked out.

Step by step, he walked out of the lower cabin and onto the deck.Due to his previous identity and position, the bosun around him just saluted him and called him the captain, without showing too much awe.

A figure walked by, ignoring the captain directly, and Agaritu reached out to grab his shoulder.

The second officer, Gilchies, was stopped from moving, and he looked at the other party rather dissatisfied. His tone and actions showed little respect, and he only had the most basic courtesy of comparing himself with the Extraordinary of the same sequence and the same path:
"what's up?"

For some reason, when he stared at the other party's red eyes, he suddenly felt an unknown fear.

"Weigh the anchor now and head for Bayam at full speed."

Under the gaze of these eyes, Kirchies resisted the urge to ask back - he didn't hold back, and he said in an even worse tone:
"Why? That's not an order given to us by the 'Death'."

Hearing this, Agaritu took a deep look at the second officer from bottom to top, Gilcies moved uncomfortably, feeling like he was a fish on a chopping board, being sliced ​​open inch by inch and looked clean .

The devil grinned, showing a malicious and mocking smile.

"Now it is."

He said slowly: "From now on, my will is the will of 'Death'."

TBC

In the new month, there is an urge to speak boldly, that is, six or seven thousand words are updated every day.

Thinking about it carefully, my production capacity is just like this, forget it, forget it, don’t give everyone unrealistic expectations (.)
