The captain looked at Gu Qingshan.
I saw this ghost king-level devil wearing a black armor. Black lines like mist and flames emerged from the armor and shot vertically into the void.
This devil wears a golden armor mask with many fine mysterious runes etched on it, covering its face.
He could feel the power of the devil.
After the trial just now, this devil has adjusted himself to the peak state, his murderous aura is getting stronger and stronger, his sharp sword intention is ready to strike, and he will strike at any time regardless of the risk.
This is a very dangerous guy.
What's even more troublesome is that the devil was just brought here by the law of summons.
The devil can dissolve the law at any time and return to his own world.
If he offends this devil, he can kill randomly here without Wang Cheng's reward, and then leave.
...This is not okay.
The captain narrowed his narrow eyes and looked like he was smiling.
He cleared his throat and said, "The second officer will not deliberately target anyone. I trust him on this."
There was an uproar all around.
What surprised everyone was not that the captain spoke for the second mate, but that the captain explained to the devil.
To a certain extent, this can be regarded as a concession.
However, the devil did not appreciate it at all and continued: "But Wang Chengdu accepted the test, why can't the second officer accept the test?"
The captain is a little embarrassed.
No one on this ship had ever dared challenge his authority.
The captain lowered his gaze and quietly stared at Gu Qingshan's hand.
Gu Qingshan's hand covered in black armor was pressed on the sword.
There is a subtle blue and white electric light on the sword that is constantly beating.
... He has mastered the elements and can also use swords. I have never seen such a devil before.
It knocked down a group of people with one strike of its sword.
The captain frowned slightly.
——I obviously feel that this devil is not very strong, but why is my mind gradually tense?
To take action or not to take action?
This will bring about two completely different situations.
The captain took a deep breath and prepared to make the final decision.
He opened his mouth and said: "You devil, I -"
"Captain!"
The second mate interrupted the captain.
He suddenly walked up and took the initiative to say to the little black bell: "I want to prove in front of everyone that as the second officer on the ship, I have never received any benefits, and I have never wanted to frame or kill any of my own people."
The words fell.
The little black clock remained silent.
It didn't ring.
The onlookers cheered.
The second mate told the truth!
He immediately gained everyone's trust again.
The captain came back to his senses, looked at Gu Qingshan, and then turned to Wang Cheng: "Look, no one on the entire ship dares to violate my rules."
"Those two people who designed to kill you, even if you die in their hands, I will definitely avenge you when I know the situation later!"
When he spoke, he also spoke to the small black clock.
The little black clock still didn't ring.
The crowd cheered and cheered again.
After the second mate and the captain passed the death knell test one after another, the atmosphere of the entire scene was different.
People no longer had tense faces and smiled one after another.
Yes, the captain has always been trusted by everyone.
The captain will definitely maintain the rules of the entire ship.
The second officer is also loyal and will not do anything against his own people.
This kind of ship is worth staying on.
Gu Qingshan stood there, looking at the little black clock, lost in thought.
According to Wang Cheng's memory, this small black bell comes from the Deathly Holy Cult. It is a commonly used Deathly Hallow in the Hegemony Zone and is called the death knell of the God of Death.
When a person speaks to the death knell, Xiao Zhong will distinguish the authenticity of the other person's words from the soul level and make a judgment.
For the Death Holy Cult, they often give this kind of death knell to various forces for use.
First, you can use this holy weapon to expand the influence of the Deathly Holy Cult;
Second, when someone uses this little black bell, they have to pay a large usage fee to the Death Religion;
Third, when the small black clock is activated, it will record what happened on the spot and feed it back to the Temple of Death, from which sect members can obtain relevant information.
Although many organizations know that this is a clever method of the Death Holy Cult, after careful consideration, they are still willing to accept the death knell of this god of death.
Because of this sacred weapon, no one within the organization can lie.
This is the ultimate deterrent.
As a force, they are more eager for stability within the organization.
For countless years, no one has been able to deceive the death knell.
So when the captain and second officer passed the test, everyone was really relieved.
Wang Cheng paused for a moment and showed a reassuring smile.
"Thank you Captain, I can finally feel relieved." Wang Cheng said.
The captain cursed: "You brat, do you know how much I have to pay to the Temple of Death every time I use this clock?"
Wang Chengcheng chuckled.
At this time, several people came out of the wreckage of spacecraft No. 2 and came to whisper a few words in the captain's ear.
The wrinkles on the captain's face suddenly relaxed.
He announced: "Bai Yu and Zhang Yi betrayed me and actually killed their own people. Now, I want to confiscate their personal property!"
"When we finish this business, I will distribute their property to everyone!"
People cheered loudly!
The captain not only protects every crew member, but is also so generous!
"Wang Cheng, you are the victim, you will get the biggest share." The captain winked at Wang Cheng.
Wang Cheng smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Captain."
The captain spread his hands and said gently: "Now that everything is settled, you can lift the summoning spell and let that damn devil go."
Wang Cheng paused.
She quickly exchanged opinions with Gu Qingshan.
"Captain, there is actually something I want to report to you privately," Wang Cheng said.
"Oh?" The captain raised his eyebrows.
He looked at Gu Qingshan and then at Wang Cheng.
The devil still hasn't left.
What does Wang Cheng want to do?
The captain hesitated for a moment and said: "Second mate, you are responsible for the rest of the work here. Come on, Wang Cheng, follow me to the captain's cabin."
After a while.
In the captain's cabin.
Wang Cheng had already made a secret report and made everything clear.
The captain sat there and listened quietly.
His face was as gloomy as water.
As a captain, someone dared to deceive him!
His expression well explained the anger in his heart.
"So, it was actually the first mate who colluded with Bai Yu and Zhang Yi to do this?" he asked.
"That's right." Wang Cheng nodded.
"Where's the second mate?"
"Zhang Yi only said something about the first mate, and then he was killed by the impulsive devil. I don't know if there are others, but the first mate is definitely involved in this matter."
The captain looked at the devil: "Why are you targeting the second officer?"
"Smoke bombs, we usually like to use little tricks like this to confuse the enemy." The devil laughed.
"You devil..."
Wang Cheng hurriedly said: "Captain, I will pay for your use of the Death Knell."
After hearing this, the captain looked better.
He looked at the black-armored devil and quickly said to Wang Cheng: "So is it because of the first mate that you haven't dismissed the summoned devil?"
"Exactly."
"Very good, I understand. Since it is the first mate who is causing trouble, he has violated the rules I set. I will seek justice."
He pressed a button somewhere on the table and said, "Call the first mate."
The two waited only for a short while.
The first mate has arrived.
On the entire ship, the first mate is second only to the captain in strength.
The captain generally does not do anything specific, and the first mate is the one who actually commands and controls the entire ship.
The captain's power is so mysterious that no one knows the captain's true strength.
But everyone knows how brutal and powerful the first mate is.
Does the captain have to deal with the first mate now?
Or is it that the captain summoned the first mate to suddenly attack him?
Wang Cheng recalled the past and kept judging the current situation, and he couldn't help but become nervous.
The black-armored devil stood quietly behind him without making any reaction.
"Captain, I wonder why you came to see me?" the first mate asked respectfully.
The captain pointed to the bookshelf on the wall and said, "Go and take down the seventeenth book from the third row and give it to Wang Cheng - this is what I gave him."
"Yes." The first mate responded.
He turned around and looked up at the bookshelf.
The third row...the seventeenth book...
The first mate looked up.
The captain looked at the first mate's back.
He quietly raised his hand, spread his fingers, and made a strong grabbing and twisting motion towards the first mate from a distance.
Click.
The first mate's neck was snapped.
The captain waved his arm and pulled violently through the air.
puff!
Blood mist rose.
The first mate's head was screwed off.
His body fell to the ground with a dull thud.
As the second person on the entire ship, the first mate died silently.
