"Woooooooo..."
"You're absolutely right!"
"If those damn nobles hadn't forced me to do so, I wouldn't have chosen to go to sea, and Dawn..."
"Yes! I admit that the brilliance of the Church of Dawn allows many people not to worry about the pollution of the red moon, but the bishops of the major city-states are too much. They only want to unite with those nobles to make gold pounds!"
"Brother, which pirate group are you from? With your strength and knowledge, it shouldn't be possible for you to remain unknown in the Cordo Sea, right?"
Looking at the pirate in front of him who was beaten black and blue, Wei En kept his deception talent activated and said carelessly:
"A small pirate group is not as good as the Devil you are on. Speaking of which, it is really difficult for a small pirate group. They will encounter various dangers at sea."
"Not only are there storms, taboos, and aberrations, but they are also often bullied by the big pirates. A few days ago, we encountered a steamship from the Black Pearl, which was the smallest of its kind."
"Then what?"
The three pirates sitting opposite him asked with concern: "No one died when encountering the Black Pearl, right?"
"Why didn't anyone die? The captain and the first mate went into the sea to feed the fish on the spot." Wei En said in a serious tone, as if the boss and second son were really dead, with a look of grief and anger on his face: "So, I can't wait to kill them all!"
"Don't be impulsive, those people in Black Pearl are too strong..."
"Yes, you have to wait until you are strong enough."
"Hmph, if it were me, I would definitely kill him back!"
"You're right. When you become stronger, you'll kill them!"
Seeing the three pirates becoming hostile to the Black Pearl under the influence of their deception talent, Wei En said in a bewildering way: "You don't have to wait until later, there is a good opportunity now."
"oh?"
"Tell me!"
"I heard that someone is going to take action on the people in the city on this island. I came here to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with them!"
"Does anyone really dare to deal with the Black Pearl here? Those three people are not vegetarians, especially the most powerful 'killer' Honatan Kirkland. It is said that he has almost reached the level of Hand of the Kingdom."
"Of course," Wei En pretended to smile mysteriously: "If there is such an opportunity, would you be willing to participate?"
The three pirates looked at each other and nodded heavily: "For you and for those of us who were bullied by the big pirates, we must let them taste the pain this time!"
"Well, since you have such a heart, I will make the decision privately to take you with me."
"Tell me, what should I do?"
Plan comes true!
Wei En looked at the pirates whose cognition was affected by the talent of deception and nodded secretly.
To lay out a rune array covering the entire Alexei Island, which also involves various rune patterns and nodes, he needs to stay focused at all times.
If you are discovered or disturbed by others in the middle, some time will be wasted.
Therefore, after being provoked by these three short-sighted pirates, Wayne thought of using his deception talent to induce a group of people to become helpers.
At least someone should help keep an eye on him when he is setting up the magic circle to prevent others from discovering him.
"I will contact you again after the specific tasks are notified over there."
"Then, where should we wait for you?"
Gathering point...
Wei En was thoughtful, and suddenly felt that his arrangement was really like those evil sects of the Despair Sect that bewitched ordinary people.
"Take these gold pounds. Do you see the Wadi Welland tavern over there? You will stay there for the rest of the time."
"Remember, no one else should know about this!"
The three pirates looked at the one hundred gold pounds in their hands, their eyes bursting with fiery light, even more hostile to the Black Pearl than before, and they grinned silently.
"Don't worry, we will never say anything!"
"We must do something big this time!"
Wei En nodded with satisfaction and signaled: "Go ahead, when the matter is finished, I guarantee that your names will be famous in the Cordo Sea!"
"Um!"
Watching the three pirates walking hand-in-hand to the tavern in the middle of the port block, Wayne followed them mentally for a while, and he felt relieved when he found that they had brought the topic back to the Alexei Arena.
He is also in the exploratory stage regarding the use of his deception talent.
In addition to knowing that after the talent is activated, his spiritual power will be transformed into a power with strange characteristics, he has not yet figured out how to make those people change their thoughts, perceptions and even beliefs.
This is a completely different principle from spiritual transformation and spell casting, and...
Wei En looked at the panel in his mind and felt a little confused. According to the panel's reward mechanism, if the fraud talent takes effect, it should give certain rewards.
Even if there is no reward, there should at least be a reminder that the fraud was successful, right?
However, in fact, since the awakening of his deception talent, the panel has only prompted information about related talents.
After that, no matter how he used his deception talent, there was never any prompt on the panel.
This feeling is as if——
"Can't the panel find any traces of the use of the cheating talent?"
Wayne's eyes flickered, and this conclusion was horrifying.
At this moment, he recalled the illusion he had when he was promoted to wizard. After seeing his sister Estelle Loft, his talent for deception was awakened.
In fact, in addition to the strange phenomenon of deception talent, there is also the anomaly of the original world, the strange aberration that swallowed up his twelve original sub-bodies.
For these two anomalies, the panel never gave any hint——
Does this mean...
no, I can not!
Wei En suppressed the throbbing in his heart. He didn't dare to think along this line of thought anymore!
He just felt that somewhere he couldn't see, there was a pair of big hands covering him!
"Puppets on strings..."
In Alexey Port at night, the sea breeze was blowing, and ships of various colors were docked at the edge of the port.
The pirates who stayed above were drinking beer, singing, dancing and cheering.
At this moment, the brilliance of the red moon was nothing to them.
Or, the whole world is no longer in their eyes. The only thing they care about is whether there is still wine, whether the girl on the shore is moisturized, and when their name will be spread throughout the Cordo Sea.
What they didn't know was that a strong pirate with a gloomy face was standing at the port not far away, looking at the rushing sea, blowing the sea breeze, and quietly listening to the commotion around him.
"call……"
After a long time, when the candles in the dawn lantern were about to burn out, Wei En let out a sigh of relief and his expression returned to his usual calm.
He calmly took out a new candle, lit it with the one in the lantern that had only a little grease left to stick to the wick, then covered the newly burned candle and stuck it to the base of the lantern.
The dim candle swayed slightly, dispersing the glow of the red moon above his head, and it seemed to really bring him a touch of warmth.
After doing this, Wei En turned and left.
Alexei Island is very large. Except for the city-state of Alexei in the center, there are port facilities on all sides, and there are almost all kinds of taverns and shops between the port and the city-state. The area left for him to arrange the nodes of the rune array is at the intersection of the four ports.
Northeast, southeast, northwest, and southwest. The northeast area is a mountain with a watchtower and detection array set up by the Black Pearl. The other three areas are covered by forests.
Wei En walked through one by one, and after noticing something unusual in the northeastern area, he decided to complete the node layout of the other three forest areas first.
However, in order to connect these four core nodes in series, other nodes must be arranged in the city-state area in the middle.
But in this way, he needs to complete the arrangement of the entire magic circle under the eyes of the pirates in the city-state.
This means that when the rune array is deployed later, the risk will be much higher.
Wei En looked at the sketch he had just drawn on the parchment. In addition to the core nodes at the four corners, there were eight more rune nodes involved in the city-state, and he frowned and thought.
"There is no good solution. It seems that the plan just now is about to change..."
Or, borrow the idea of some pirates helping to arrange the magic circle, and then extend it.
To have an entire island of pirates at his disposal?
Wei En lowered his head and thought for a moment. It was difficult, but not impossible.
As long as he gets rid of the powerful pirates on the island, he can use his talent for deception to turn everyone into his own, and things will fall into place naturally after that.
And based on his relationship with Black Jack Euan, maybe he can get the three big pirates to cooperate without taking action.
Thinking of this, Wei En looked at the brightly lit city-state of Alexey in the distance and laughed silently.
Before, he thought of relying on his own strength to deal with Alais and the others.
But looking at it now, some things are not used now, but I’m afraid there will be no chance in the future!
…
…
Woo——
The low sound of the horn echoed melodiously, making the sea surface already illuminated by the light of the red moon even more restless.
In the far distance, two thick clouds seemed to be moving slowly, but in fact they were moving quickly at a speed far beyond human imagination, turning the calm sea surface into turbulent waves.
Under the lightning and thunder, strong winds rose, and raindrops as big as rice flower mixed with sea water poured down from the sky, turning the ships that relied on sails to float in the sea breeze into fragile little toys in an instant.
"what's the situation?!"
"Damn it, we've encountered a stormy sea, lower the sails quickly and activate the rune circle!"
"Bosun, take your people and quickly guard the deck. You must not let those aberrations in the deep sea board the ship!"
The captains noticed the abnormality, screamed with pale faces, and arranged everything according to their past experience.
but--
"Boss, look!"
"There are large ships in the storm! Or two!"
"Um?"
"Yes, yes, it's the Bekri and the Araniga!?"
"Damn it, I just said that the storm today was very weird. I didn't expect it to be affected by them."
"Left left rudder, avoid their course. Where is the helmsman, hurry up!"
Observing the unusual ships under the two dark clouds, their expressions changed.
Everyone knows that the Black Pearl and the Araniga have been having constant friction in the waters of Cordo recently, and no ships are allowed to approach the fierce fighting area.
Otherwise, it is likely to be destroyed by the aftermath of their battle.
I didn't expect to be so unlucky!
Just when these ships were anxious to avoid, under the dark clouds, a huge sea dragon circled and blocked the rear, roaring while fighting a strange tentacle.
"Ho-Domitri is a crybaby!"
"At that time, I lost 100,000 pounds while playing cards with the 'epidemic doctor'. I cried with my head in my arms after losing. In the end, I knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, so I was able to keep a pair of underwear and leave."
"Speaking of which, Domitri, you should be thanking us!"
Under the even bigger clouds behind them, a huge steamship twice as big as the Bekli was chasing them straight like a deep-sea beast.
The hull covered with black metal remained motionless under the impact of the waves, and the flashing rune light from time to time illuminated the gun barrels protruding from the cabin, making the steamship look like a war fortress.
"I thank you whole family of bastards!"
Standing on the bow of the ship, Domitri Pruitt, the Ripper, shouted with a gloomy expression.
He was wearing a jacket similar to Black Jack's, with a cigar in his mouth. His dark face had a hideous scar across his cheek, and even his lips had jagged gaps after healing.
"Black Jack, and 'Epidemic Doctor' Euan Morris, you two bastards, today is the day you die!"
"hehe……"
On the Bekli, Euan waved his staff and shot spells one after another. He cooperated with the pirates on the deck to clean up the surrounding aberrations and taunted: "Domitri, you won't forget that you left a Photos, right?”
"photo?"
Black Jack in mid-air opened his big mouth, bit off one of the tentacles of the deep-sea monster, and roared: "Hahaha... I almost forgot, you bastard made him strip naked and then forced him to take a picture. Photo. I remember that the three of us even took a group photo?"
"That's right!"
Euan showed a hint of sarcasm, holding an extra photo in his hand, and motioned to the people on the Araniga behind.
"How about I ask the Cordo Gazette to print it now?"
"Damn, damn! You two bastards!"
Domitri just glanced at it and was sure that it was indeed him who looked like him in the photo.
Asshole 'Epidemic Doctor' and Black Jack, why didn't you two die and kept the photos for more than 20 years?
"Why are you still standing there? Go to the bottom of the ship and increase the steam valve to catch up with them!"
"And the carriage behind, go over and ask them if there is any way to stop the bastard in front, otherwise with the blessing of the 'Storm Horn', their Bekli can run faster than the fastest swordtooth fish in the deep sea!"
Noticing the serious faces of the pirates behind him, who wanted to laugh but dared not, the embarrassed Domitri shouted impatiently.
"Roar--"
After a period of fighting, the deep-sea behemoth whose strength reached level three disaster was finally defeated and was torn to pieces by Black Jack, who transformed into a sea dragon.
"Huh? Domitri, you spoke too loudly, I heard you!"
Black Jack released his extraordinary bloodline, jumped back to the Bekli, wiped the smelly blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the Araniga behind him openly.
"But if you want to kill us, you're not qualified enough! Let that bastard Suad come, and that's enough!"
"snort!"
Domitri snorted coldly and looked at the Bekli ship and the dark clouds hanging above them with a gloomy expression.
"Black Jack, don't be too proud. Doesn't that boy Walid worry about the forbidden items getting out of control when he uses the 'Storm Horn' like this?"
"Until then, you and the 'epidemic doctor' will be fine, but what about the others?"
"Isn't this your plan? Do you want to bury the entire Bekli in the Cordo Sea?"
"Jiejie..."
Domitri glanced maliciously at the pirates fighting against the deep-sea mutants on the deck of the Bekli, and said with a sinister smile: "Black Jack, I advise you to surrender now. Maybe I can let them go and only keep the two of you." People were stripped naked and hung on the mast..."
"Have you been corrupted by the murderous dream in the deep sea?" Black Jack's face darkened, "If you were so confident, why did you run away when you saw the 'Epidemic Doctor' before?"
Euan: "He is afraid, afraid that we will kill him."
"You!? Let's see how long you can last! Speed up and catch up!"
"Slow down," Yoan's tone was still a bit teasing, "Domitri, if you go too fast, you will also enter the out-of-control range of the 'Storm Horn'."
"snort!"
Domitri snorted coldly and said nothing more. His face was as gloomy as ink, and he stood on the bow of the ship and stared at the two bastards in front of him.
Black Jack shouted for a while, and when he saw that the people behind them were only chasing but not speaking, he guessed their plan. Then he flashed to Yuan's side, and the two of them killed the surrounding aberrants together.
"Euan, what should we do now? These people are chasing after us and it will be very detrimental to us if they continue to consume us."
"Um."
Euan nodded silently, but did not give any advice immediately. His eyes fell on the black carriage behind the Araniga - in the center area shrouded by the giant storm.
With Domitri's shrewdness, he knew Black Jack's character very well and knew that as long as he angered him, he could lay a trap easily.
The last time they killed the big pirate who belonged to the Black Pearl was just a bait to catch Black Jack.
But they should be more aware of the strength of the Bekli. If Black Jack wanted to escape, their configuration would not be able to keep him.
Therefore, these people must have prepared other means.
But since encountering the Araniga, Euan has covered the surrounding sea with his spiritual perception. Within a few hundred kilometers, there are no other abnormalities except the storm behind him.
This made him feel puzzled and even more vaguely uneasy.
"Find a way to contact Menor!"
"Contact him? Are you sure?" Black Jack looked at him in surprise, "He is a member of the Eternal Life Society, not a pirate!"
The current situation is quite dangerous, but it’s not time to call for help yet, right?
Moreover, he always felt that Menor was mysterious and mysterious, and he did not want to get too close to that person unless necessary.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Youan looked at the storm that was covering the sky and the moon behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Now is not the time to worry about whether he is the Eternal Life Society or the Black Pearl, but to find a way to take the hundreds of people on the ship out of danger. .”
"You and I have both dealt with Domitri. With his strength and current position, if he chooses to take action here, he must be well prepared."
"In addition, the storm is between us and Awad Island. Unless the 'Sea Emperor' Isabello Clijsters comes to rescue himself, it is impossible for others to pass through there."
"Last and most important, that bastard Domitri was right... We don't have much time now..."
As he spoke, Euan motioned for him to look at the cab behind him.
Black Jack looked in the direction he pointed and couldn't help but clenched his fists.
Walid...can't hold on any longer!
Forbidden object 2-14 The storm horn is very powerful, especially at sea. It can not only change the storm weather and speed up the ship's sailing, but also has the ability to summon deep-sea fish to protect it.
The corresponding price is the price to pay for using it - just like Walid is now.
Every time the horn is blown, his physical strength decreases twice as much.
However, the changes in his body are only superficial. More importantly, his original power will be continuously absorbed by the Storm Horn.
"I see."
After making the decision, Black Jack no longer hesitated, "I'm going to contact Menor, and I'll leave this place to you for the time being."
Euan nodded: "Okay."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Black Jack ducking away.
Domitri, who was on the Aranica behind, saw this scene and his expression did not change.
Although the expression on his face was ugly, when he saw the two parties sailing northwest, he was already sneering in his heart.
Black Jack, epidemic doctor...
This time, I will definitely throw you into the sea to feed the fish!
"Menor, come here quickly!"
"Damn bastard, if you don't show up now, don't come here again. I will never let you see the boss!"
"Are you here?"
Black Jack cursed at the communicator, but except for some questions from some people on the Black Pearl, Menor made no sound.
"First mate, what happened?"
"Are you in danger there?"
"I'm unlucky, I've been targeted by the Araniga. It's located in the East 113-231 sea area. People heading northwest should avoid it!"
Seeing that Menor didn't respond, Black Jack thought he might as well remind the others on the Black Pearl.
"What? Those bastards on the Aranica went to intercept you?"
"Damn it, I'll notify the others right now!"
"Don't come. The situation is a bit special. Not only the people on the Araniga are in danger, but there are other dangers. If you come, you will die."
Black Jack said in a deep voice: "Someone can help me convey the situation here to Hammer Girl. Remember to use the encrypted channel and don't be intercepted by those bastards."
The situation here is critical. If the pirates under the legend come over, it will only cause a few more people to die. It would be better not to come at all.
"Damn it, Menor, did you bastard get that?!"
"Jack?"
Just when Black Jack wanted to give up, Menoer asked doubtfully through the communicator: "Did you encounter a gravedigger there?"
"Menor?" Black Jack was delighted, "Not only the gravedigger, but also that bastard Domitri. Come here quickly, East 113 Sea Area!"
"Are there any other discoveries besides these?" Menor asked after being silent for a few seconds.
"Huh? What did you find?"
"Did the 'epidemic doctor' tell you?"
"Menor, you don't want to come?"
"I understand, I'll be there right away."
Seeing that his ears were closed and there was no sound from the other side, Black Jack's face darkened.
What the hell, what does this bastard Menoor mean? I doubt what I said. If the 'epidemic doctor' asks you to come, you will rush over, right?
grass!
underestimate me? !
