Calculated according to time, it is almost ten minutes before the outer magic barrier breaks and the effect of the defensive circle disappears.
As Pleasant left the treasure house along the ladder, he calculated his remaining time leisurely.
Ten minutes is enough to climb five flights of stairs to the top floor to open the magic circle. There is even a lot of extra time. I can spend a few minutes admiring the group of angry guys outside...well...appreciate it. So does what's inside.
After Plisson planned his vision in his mind, he closed the door of the treasure house with the key and quickly cleaned up the traces he left.
"I hope the navy outside will never discover the key in this secret compartment. I don't want to give them a penny."
After all the preparations were completed, Pleasant did not rush to climb upstairs. Instead, he looked around again at the pirates who had almost turned into sculptures, as if they were looking for someone.
"Oh! My Lord Feng, look who I found, Parker, my dear old man, I knew you, the old bastard, were still alive."
As if he had discovered some treasure, Pleasant leaned towards a one-eyed man wearing a three-cornered hat and a leather jacket next to the spiral staircase.
The man's face is covered with stubble, his somewhat old face has many old scars, and he wears a beautiful black eyepatch on his right eye, giving him a very typical pirate image.
Seeing Pleasant gradually walking towards him, fear flashed through the eyes of the man who could not move. He tried his best to move, but his body still stayed in place, without any change, only the expression on his face. Becoming more and more distorted.
"Captain Parker, do you still remember the 20 silver coins you owe me?" Plisson used his remaining right eye to repeatedly look at the hat and eyepatch on Parker's head, with a malicious smile on his face: "You haven't returned the money to your dear leader for half a month, but now you are almost finished. It seems too impersonal for me to ask you for the money now."
"Why don't you just mortgage the blindfold you're wearing to me and let me balance my eyesight? That way we'll be clear on both ends. Don't you think that's good?"
Pleasant finished a series of words at a very fast speed, and before the other party could realize what Pleasant wanted to do, he directly grabbed the eyepatch that the other party was still wearing on his face.
"Your hat seems to be quite nice." Plisson said to himself, while he politely picked up the tricorn hat on Parker's head and put it on his head safely. .
"By the way, when you have to choose between hanging or beheading in prison, remember to choose beheading, tell me my name, and let Charles, the sharp knife of Blue Pearl Harbor, chop it. His knife is fast, and his head just rolled off. It doesn't matter. I feel it. Don't choose the hanging method. I can't find any good hands to execute you. It's really uncomfortable to have your neck strangled with a big thick hemp rope. It's so stuck that you can't even breathe." Pleasant He vividly told Parker about the other party's future execution arrangements, as if he had actually experienced them.
After instantly changing his tone and saying the last sentence, Pleasant put the blindfold on his left eye hastily, and then went upstairs without looking back, leaving only Parker with an increasingly painful and twisted expression. .
"Although Parker is a pure bad guy, his eyepatch is quite sentimental."
Pleasant gradually adjusted the blindfold on his face. The exquisite eyepatch engraved with golden roses covered Pleasant's blind eye, but it could not completely cover the narrow scar...and There were tiny weird black spots and ulcerated flesh around it.
"Hiss, it hurts. This ability of the mad woman is not a blessing from the gods. This extremely weird and insidious ability is like a terrifying curse left by a secret organization that believes in evil gods."
Pleasant gently touched the wound exposed on the edge of the eye patch with his hand, and then retracted his hand in pain.
"I don't know if the few bottles of stuff my cheap father left for me can offset the influence of divine power caused by a mid-level awakening-level God's Favorite. If not, I'll probably have to deal with a lot of trouble later. I had a headache for a long time.”
Are you looking for someone from the Four Orthodox Churches to eliminate the divine influence? It is indeed a feasible solution, but it seems not very practical.
Let’s talk about Canglan’s Church of Storms first. Fengjun’s believers would not welcome a Skyhawk, let alone a pirate, because since the death of the pirate emperor Roland in the middle of the 4th century, the successor William I has The canon of the Church of Storms was changed on the grounds of divine prophecy. In the new canon, pirates lost their status as Feng Lord’s chosen ones and became the targets of everyone’s desperation. After so many years of subtle changes, the profession of pirates cannot be said to be very popular in Canglan. Yes, but it can be said that everyone is shouting for a fight. It is best for a well-known pirate like Plisson not to join in the fun.
The Church of the God of War in the far north, well, don’t expect these big and powerful magicians. Almost all the priests of the Church of the God of War are iron-blooded warriors who can fight one against ten or even one against a hundred. The senior bishops are basically generals who can control the battle situation. If Pleasant went to the God of War Church in Sasmere, it was hard to say whether the divine influence could be eliminated, but it was possible that his life would be lost.
The Shenghui Church in the South China Sea sounds quite reliable. The priest of Yaori is definitely the priest who is most in line with the traditional clergy among the four major righteous churches, and is also the best at purifying divine arts. It is a pity that he has experienced the Tianying Civil War. During that time, there was no such thing as a shining church in Tianying. What? Going to the South China Sea countries, I am afraid that even halfway, Plissen sent it on the way.
As for the remaining Natural Church, it seems to be the only feasible solution in the Church of True God. However, the Natural Church and the Sky Eagle official are too close. Many members of the Sky Eagle official extraordinary organization World Tree were once believers of the Earth Mother. If you approach someone with a wanted identity, you may not have a good result.
From this point of view, it is not feasible to go to Zhengshen Church.
So... what about those secret organizations or evil organizations lurking in the shadows?
The Alchemical Society? If I were to ask them to remove the divine influence, regardless of whether it was dangerous or not, I might not be able to afford the price. Moreover, the internal divisions of that gang have been severe recently. If I accidentally get involved in the struggle between the reformists and the classicists, hiss, praise Ouroboros, I don’t want to die inexplicably on the streets or disappear into thin air.
Astrology Society? The danger may not be that dangerous, but those fools who look at the stars all day long probably don't have the ability to directly eliminate the influence of divinity.
Fallen sect? The cultists in the shadows do have the ability to remove various divine influences, and they accept all comers... However, Pleasant does not want to draw closer to the mentally ill people at this stage. Due to the distance, it would be very foolish to rashly negotiate with the followers of the evil god before awakening.
The Four Seas Council? Although that is the highest goal of all pirates, the gap is too big for me now, let alone the pirate kings of the other three sea areas, and even the local pirate king of the West Sea, the ghost ship captain Yu who is known as the Ghost Earl For me, they are all unattainable. I have never even been to the Ghost City once... Thinking about it this way, I, as a pirate leader, have really failed.
"Resolving the hidden dangers left by the 'Black Blade' is the most troublesome problem at this stage."
Pleasant scratched his scattered hair in distress, but suddenly he seemed to have remembered something, and the worried expression on his face suddenly became clear.
"I'm really stupid. I can just find a way to kill that tigress Luas after I go out. If the favored person with divine power disappears, the divine influence he left behind will naturally disappear."
This solution is much simpler than the previous ones.
Thinking of this, Plisson couldn't help but reveal a smile.
Although it is not easy for him to kill an awakened god's favored person when he knows the opponent's divine power, it is definitely not that difficult.
After all, people like him are better at solving problems by hiding in the shadows than fighting head-on.
He held the handle of the stairs and looked up, his mood seemed to be getting better and better.
"There are still two floors left, and I can say goodbye to this right away..."
"boom!!!"
A loud bang interrupted Pleasant's soliloquy and the random thoughts in his mind. The roar of artillery shells shook Pleasant's ears to the point of almost losing his hearing.
The light shone from behind Pleasant into the Vulture Castle, which had closed windows all year round, a humid environment, and dim lighting. The incandescent light reflected the shadow behind Pleasant, just like the shadow on the guilty person in the court at the end of the sentence. out of the lights.
When Pleasant covered his ears and turned back, he saw the artificially shattered defensive barrier outside, the black wall with a big hole blasted out, and a man enveloped in a fiery brilliance.
The man was wearing a black and red governor's uniform, holding a beautifully crafted long sword in his hand. His gorgeous long red hair hung down to his shoulders. His extremely delicate face was somewhat soft, and his skin was as white and translucent as gelatin. The rose-red eyes were like sparkling gems, exuding a charming light.
The loud noise just now gave Plisson a splitting headache, and he could not recover from the scene in front of him for a while.
New Governor? A woman? Wait, why is my wall gone? !
Pleasant was a little confused. He only felt confused in his mind at the moment.
"Black Crow?"
The man wearing the governor's attire tilted his head and uttered a word with some confusion.
His voice was crisp and beautiful, very pleasant to the ear, but judging from the timbre, it didn't sound like a woman's.
Pleasant looked at the man in front of him, and cautiously pulled out the enchanted pistol he had just grabbed from Connor, and began to gather extraordinary power, ready to activate the magic pattern on the pistol and pull the trigger at any time.
As for the other party, he just shook the exquisite long sword in his hand slightly, a faint smile appeared on his puppet-like face, and his beautiful rose-red eyes looked directly at Pleasant.
"Forget it, don't worry about this anymore, just clear away all the 'sins' here."
Pleasant didn't understand what the other party meant, but when his eyes met those beautiful rose-red eyes, a sense of crisis stemming from the unknown suddenly enveloped his heart, and the unknown fear continued. Upsurge, the hidden blood in his body instinctively began to stir, and every cell in his body was frantically conveying information called danger to his mind. At this moment, the messy thoughts in his mind were instantly cleared, and at this moment he only One word was left.
run!
Awakening from the top? A rare professional? Or...a legend?
Pleasant didn't understand why he instinctively reacted to this idea in his mind, but based on his prediction of danger, he was certain that if he didn't run now, he would definitely die, and he would die miserably.
Pleasant's mind started spinning in an instant without any stagnation. While maintaining the operation of his extraordinary power, he aimed at the beauty in front of him and continuously pulled the trigger of the pistol.
Then, regardless of whether the shot was successful or not, the speed of Plisson's senior knight began to explode, and he turned around and rushed down the stairs to the higher level of Vulture Castle.
Plisson knew exactly what he was going to do. His ultimate goal was to escape from here with the help of the teleportation array, not to fight with a stranger in the stairs. You must know that if he simply fights head-on without using any props, he is just a high-level knight. , even the captains in his own port who have reached the awakening level may not be able to defeat him, so how could he take the initiative to confront this person who just glanced at him and made him feel timid and did not dare to fight against him? "monster".
This is not because of timidity. When he was reckless, Pleasant dared to directly touch a strong man with a mid-level awakening like "Black Blade", but facing this sudden appearance, he, who had always been braver, now Without any intention to fight, he immediately made the choice to escape. In this regard, Pleasant can only explain it with his "intuition" about the death threat.
He had never experienced such a strong intuitive reaction, not even when faced with his near-legendary lunatic father, who had never sensed such a strong death threat.
Although I don’t know why the defensive formation suddenly broke open while it was supposed to last, but as long as Plisson escaped back to his room, it only took half a minute, no, no, up to ten seconds to complete the teleportation arrangement and escape from this place.
Several bullets blessed by magic patterns were shot straight at the man with strong penetrating power, but none of those bullets could get closer than half a meter around the man.
Faint sparks flashed around his body, and the whizzing bullets turned into ashes the moment they approached him, without harming him in the slightest.
"interesting."
He lightly touched the stone bricks underground with the blade of his sword, leaving a very deep scratch on the black bricks.
