"boom!"
The rock crab's giant claws hit Pleasant's abdomen hard. The powerful impact made Pleasant's body fly backwards like a kite with its string broken. On the rocks on the beach, the ribs in my chest were almost broken.
Pleasant lowered his head. He was already at the end of his strength, but now that he had suffered this blow, he no longer had any strength to fight back.
"Are you going to die?" Plisson squinted his eyes slightly, and he vaguely saw the rock crab walking towards him.
"To die in the hands of a crab, haha, how unlucky." The corner of Plisson's mouth twitched, and the color in his eyes gradually became desperate.
"...I hope I won't be so unlucky in the next life."
In Pleasant's blurry vision, the huge rock crab walked up to him, raised its terrifying giant claws covered with rocks, and then hit Pleasant's head hard.
Just when Pleasant thought he was finished, an accident suddenly happened. The rock crab's giant claws stopped in mid-air, and then the opponent's body began to tremble violently.
"Woo!"
The Rock Crab let out an eerie screech, and then his massive rock-covered body began to fall apart.
Yes...it exploded, not only the pincers, the rock crab's huge body exploded into countless fragments in an instant, and the meat paste and various hard horny debris splashed into Plisson's face.
Pleasant was stunned. The large rock crab that was showing its teeth and claws one second exploded into pieces the next. Its carapace and flesh were scattered all over the ground. A large amount of blood dyed the beach next to the rock red.
But what made him even more confused was yet to come. The scattered fragments, together with the blood, turned into blue light spots and disappeared into the air in just a few seconds, not only on the beach, but also on Pleasant's face. of.
A blue cube was left where the rock crab died just now. The blue cube was surrounded by countless light spots, large and small, and on the side facing Plisson was written a number.
"6, are you complimenting me?" Plisson read out the number written on it.
"What does this number mean?" Plisson looked at the number on the blue cube with confusion.
"Wait..." Plisson seemed to understand something. He dragged his seriously injured body and walked towards the blue cube with difficulty.
Within a short distance of a few meters, Pleasant walked very slowly. A large hole was opened in his chest by the rock crab's claws, and red liquid emerged from the inside.
"I didn't become the crab's lunch, but I will probably die here due to excessive blood loss." Plisson walked around the blue cube with difficulty. His only remaining eye was blurred due to excessive blood loss. becomes very blurry.
But he still got the answer he wanted. This blue cube, which was about 2 meters long and wide, was a dice, a big dice.
The blue light spots around the dice contain complex magical structures, and the aura exuding from them made Pleasant feel a little palpitated. If the magical power of this blue light spot breaks out, the damage caused may be no worse than that of a great wizard-level existence.
"Was that big crab killed by this thing? It's strange, why did this thing blow it up but not me? Does this magic wave only work on animals? By the way, why didn't you see this thing just now?"
With doubts, Pleasant gently touched the blue dice with his hand, and then...he felt his eyes go dark, and then completely lost consciousness.
.......
Norton, Blue Pearl Harbor.
The Governor's Mansion, which had not been occupied by anyone for three years, welcomed a new owner today, Vitor Rogge, the son of the Northern Grand Duke of the Sky Eagle Empire.
The first thing the new governor did when he took office was not to arrive at the Governor's Mansion, but to directly eliminate Black Crow Port, the largest pirate force around the Norton Sea area. A large number of pirates became the dead souls under naval gunfire, except for Black Crow Port. The leader of the pirates, Pleasant Wilson, known as the "Black Crow", was on the run. The other pirates were either killed on the spot or imprisoned in the prison of Blue Pearl Harbor. This is enough to prove the powerful strength of the new governor. .
In a secret room in the Governor's Palace, a man with long red hair was sitting on a chair. His face was delicate and handsome, and his charming eyes were like two shining red gems.
He is the current owner of Blue Pearl Harbor and the governor of Norton, Vitor Rogge. There is a black book on the table in front of him, and his fingers gently tap the scabbard lying flat on the table. , seems to be thinking about something.
At this time, there was a knock on the door in the secret room. Vitor frowned slightly and said dissatisfiedly: "Come in."
The door of the secret room was slowly pushed open, and a woman with long black hair walked out. She had a darker complexion and a beautiful face. She only wore a light leather armor on her upper body, and her beautiful figure was clearly visible.
"General? You don't have to use your formal office. Why do you keep running to the secret room below when you have nothing to do? It's dark and dark inside. Don't you think it's intrusive when you read here?" The woman carelessly came to Vitor's side. The tone was a bit casual, as if the two of them were not in a superior-subordinate relationship.
"This used to be a database. I came here to check information. I'm working now." Vitor seemed very unhappy that someone was disturbing him, and added with a bit of dissatisfaction: "Also, You should call me Governor now.”
"Okay, okay, our lovely Governor." Luas said to Vitor with a smile on his face.
"Now is working time, please maintain a certain degree of respect for your superiors." Vitor replied expressionlessly.
"Okay, Lord Governor, actually I have something important to report." Luas quickly changed his tune.
"What happened? Did you catch Black Crow? Or did your divine power sense that he was dead?"
"Um...neither."
"Then why are you bothering me?"
"Try to be as open-minded as possible. Don't just focus on the current affairs. In fact, I am here to report to you, the Governor, on the latest situation on the 'Ghost Island' Inriges."
"What's going on?" Vitor cheered up after hearing the name Inriges.
"The fog surrounding the outer layer of Rigos has faded a bit. It should be the Duke of Annecy's plan that has worked. Mr. Governor... When should we go to the real destination of our trip?" Woolen cloth?"
"Let's deal with Norton's trouble first." Vitor replied calmly.
"Ah, there are a lot of bad things going on in this shitty place, how long will it take until they are all dealt with?"
"Believe me, it won't take long." Vitor opened the book in his hand, and an old photo on the title page of the book stood out.
In the photo, there are three young people standing side by side, two men and one woman. The man standing on the far right wears glasses and has brilliant blond hair. He is tall but a little thin and has a bookish air between his eyebrows.
The woman standing in the middle has long rose-red hair and eyes, and is extremely beautiful. Her facial features are somewhat similar to the current Vitor.
The man standing on the far left had his face torn off, leaving only a tall body dressed in black.
Behind these three people, there is still a vague figure holding a lantern, but this figure is the same as the man on the far left, with the upper part torn off, and even Yu Yu standing at the back, the tear marks are diagonal. Moving upward, most of the man's body was torn away, and all that could be seen was the lower body in the gray robe and the bright candle in his hand.
Vitor's eyes briefly stayed on the red-haired woman in the center of the photo for a while, and then focused on the half-length figure.
"...After all, the real trouble is still to come."
"The Ghost Count, the Pirate King of the West Sea? I hope this is just a conjecture."
