Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
On the lookout of the passenger ship, a sharp and loud horn sounded, penetrating the obstacles woven by wind and rain, waking all passengers.
They didn't have time to put on their clothes, or put on their coats, or pajamas, or bare feet, and ran to the window to check the situation outside.
Half of them soon saw the huge three-masted sailboat that was not in accordance with common sense, saw the three-sided black canvas, and saw the lumps of dim swaying in the dark environment.
Cooperating with the roaring wind, screaming raindrops, scarlet moon and starry night sky are not visible, many passengers only feel that the other party seems to be driving out of hell, with unspeakable terror and majesty.
"The Dark Emperor"!
After a short period of sluggishness and confusion, such a noun appeared in their minds.
Anyone who has had an experience at sea and lived in the port cities of major colonies for a while, more or less knows the existence of such a pirate ship!
"Oh, the storm is with you and me."
"May Goddess bless you!"
"Steam of the above!"
......
Pray with a cry and the subconscious sounds, full of fear and helplessness.
These passengers are well aware that the owner of "The Dark Emperor" is the highest bounty above five seas, a king of pirates in a sense, and a powerful figure that can still be active until the current fleet encirclement and suppression of various countries. The artillery and crew of a passenger ship are able to confront.
This means they are about to fall into the hands of pirates!
Many women ca n’t help but imagine the scene of being bullied by pirates and being sold to a strange place. Some are shaking, some of their knees are soft, they slipped from behind the window, they knelt to the ground, some hurriedly found The dagger and the revolver, I do not know whether they want to resist, or are unwilling to face the worst ending, some can not find weapons, and directly moved the coat rack to the side.
The performance of men is not so good. Except for a small number of people who took out their weapons and tried to organize resistance, the rest were either dull and dazed, or looking for a place to avoid, or cursed the **** passenger ship and King of the Five Seas.
Finally, the captain ’s voice reached everyone ’s ears with some kind of amplification device or means:
"Quiet! Do n’t be afraid!
"The owner of The Dark Emperor has formulated his own laws. Unlike other pirates, he and his men only rob property and do nothing else!"
These words were repeated several times in a row, and the panicked passengers finally calmed down and were no longer so afraid.
Compared to what they had just imagined, they were still alive and not bullied, which was already a very good result.
After a few tens of seconds, some passengers thought that they had worked hard for so many years, and finally had some savings. At this time, they were all lost. It was really unbearable, and the grief was rushing, and they cried out.
Several of them are borrowing money to do business. If they cannot bring back the money this time, their family members will probably wander the streets and live on charitable institution.
Thinking of this, they hurriedly acted and hid the money in various hidden places, hoping to keep it one by one. After all this, they clenched their weapons and were ready to die with the pirates at a critical moment.
Beasts will still fight back when they die, not to mention human race?
At this time, many pirates on "The Dark Emperor" were already on command, waiting on the side of the ship, ready to jump to the "prey" after the distance was reduced.
Their second officer, "Viscount of Dread" Bode Mustang, is holding a monocular telescope, observing the passenger ship on the opposite side, in one's mind is silent about how long the two sides will be close together.
The great pirate, which has long been over 10,000 pounds in bounty, is wearing a Intis shirt with a complicated cuff neckline pattern and a captain's suit of dark red, just like waiting for the banquet to start, not looting.
Suddenly, with a flower in front of him, he could not see the passenger ship anymore!
Bode Mustang quickly moved through the binoculars to find, but in that direction, there was nothing but the waves blown by the strong wind and the red head sea eagle that likes to hunt fish in heavy rain.
That's why a large steam sailing hybrid passenger ship is gone!
"..." Bode Mustang blinked, unable to make an accurate judgment.
"How about the ship?"
"What about a big ship?"
"I was still there!"
......
The pirates on the deck also noticed something was wrong, and they all stunned.
Ghost Ship? No, there is such a Ghost Ship, which is a steam and sail hybrid that has only been popular in recent decades ... illusion spell? Did someone hide that passenger ship with a large illusion spell? This level of illusion spell is bound to be half God level ... Bode Mustang turned his thoughts, put away the binoculars, and went to the cabin.
During this entire process, the distance measurement standards seem to be confusing. Bode Mustang only used 7-8 steps and walked a short distance, came to the bottom of the corresponding captain's cabin, and respectfully saluted:
"Earl, there is something unusual in hunting."
—— On "The Dark Emperor", "King of the Five Seas" Nast always calls itself Earl, which comes from Great Emperor Russel's seal.
Of course, he also publicly declared that sooner or later he would establish a kingdom that belongs to pirates, becoming a grand duke, a prince, and even Emperor.
After a brief silence, a deep and majestic voice came out of captain's cabin:
"Go around."
"Follow your will!" Bode Mustang didn't ask why, and he just accepted it.
Of course, he can imagine the reason:
Whether it is illusion spell or not, it can make such a large sail and steam hybrid passenger ship disappear silently under the watch of hundreds of pirates. It is not possible for mid&low sequencer to do it. There must be an half God or expert holding half God grade sealed item!
And for an ordinary passenger ship to conflict with the unknown half God, it is by no means sensible behavior, even if Earl of White Maple Nast is King of the Five Seas, it will not do such things rashly, unless the two sides have a direct and sufficient interest or position dispute.
From this perspective, the half God on the opposite side only hides the passenger ship without any counterattack, which also shows that he does not want to have a fierce conflict with "The Dark Emperor" and King of the Five Seas, so he just shows his presence and makes a deterrent.
Bode Mustang immediately let Sailors leave the side and manipulate “The Dark Emperor” to change course.
At this moment, a huge and heavy red head sea eagle suddenly left the group and flew towards "The Dark Emperor", circling back and forth in the height of this Ghost Ship.
The pirates were confused, this red-headed sea eagle looked down on the deck, and said in a low voice with human race:
"I want to see Earl of White Maple."
Bode Mustang was stunned for a second before turning his gaze to the cabin position.
The majestic voice of "King of the Five Seas" Nast sounded again, instead of answering the red-headed sea eagle directly, he ordered his subordinates:
"Let him come in."
Bode Mustang was just about to follow the order. The red-headed sea eagle was already swooping down in the dark wind and rain, and its body gradually changed, distorting its creepy human form.
Wait until it reaches the deck, there is no red head sea eagle, only a man wearing a tall top hat, a banquet costume, and a feather mask on his face.
The pupils of Bode Mustang are slightly enlarged, and they seem to want to see each other more clearly.
However, no matter how he observes, he can't find any abnormality in this exaggerated man from the front, as if there has never been a red head sea eagle.
After a few seconds, Bode Mustang ’s pupils expanded even more, because the man wearing the feather mask passed in front of him, allowing him to see him sideways.
The man who was invited to the dinner party was very thin, only **** wide up!
For a moment, Bode Mustang seems to see the walking paperman, but the other party is thicker than paperman!
Monster ... He swallowed hard and swallowed, and watched the dreaded half God walk towards the cabin.
The pirates on the deck stepped back a few steps, simultaneously, and leaned on the side of the ship again. It seemed that it was a nightmare to walk past.
For their part, this strangely extreme proportion of the man is almost the only one in his life, which is more horrifying than many monsters he has seen in the past.
Cabin third floor, outside captain's cabin.
Klein held the handle, twisted it, and opened the door.
He makes his image so bizarre and semi-passive. He is passive because the red head sea eagle is not large enough. After separating some of the clothing and masks, it ca n’t support the normal human race shape even if it does n’t require internal organs The initiative is that he started to explore and try the role of Crafty Mage, with a little thought:
mage is not the point, the point is to show the word "strange" with mage!
In the slight creak sound, the dark room door opened, revealing the scene in captain's cabin:
One candlestick hangs down from a height, 41 on the left and 40 on the right. The numbers are different. At the end of them, the black platform rises, surrounded by an iron black seat.
"King of the Five Seas" Nast's body shape at this time is relatively normal, in his early nineties, not as a giant rather than a human race, as he did before Klein.
He still wears a minaret crown with a reduced size, wearing a black robe with silver edges. The face line is hard, the forehead is wrinkled slightly, and there is a short black beard under his chin. The red light makes people want to lower their heads unconsciously.
"I haven't seen you." Nast said lowly, "Mr. 'Crafty Mage'."
Klein took off his hat and performed a courtesy:
"Now I know."
The trembling voice of spiritual body echoed in captain's cabin of Nast:
"Speak, why are you visiting me."
"Earl, I want to know your impression of Great Emperor Russel's. Everyone knows that you and your father have seen him more than once." Klein replied unaffectedly.
Nast glanced at the opposite paperman-like half God, the dark red light brightened a little:
"Sit first."
His voice has not fallen yet, Klein has already felt a strong oppression, and he has to obey the command and sit on the chair beside him.
However, all he came with was Secret Puppet, "spiritual body string" flicking, the book-like figure quickly stabilized.
