Chapter 220: The Man Who Bears a Curse
In thick fog.
On the deck of the Unsinkable.
Yi Lin put on a whole set of krypton gold equipment comfortably again, feeling refreshed.
Although his expression, wearing a mask no one can see through.
But Ruth found a new set of clothes, and after changing into the shape of "Mate Louis", looking at the back of the skeleton gentleman from a distance, she always felt that the mysterious back had a smell called a slapstick.
Sax Sparrow regained his grip on the compass.
Now that Yi Lin is not in the navy camp, in order to locate the location of the devil, Yi Lin can only "temporarily" lend the compass to Sachs, and locate the location of the devil through the desire in her heart.
This trial is coming to an end.
Although Yi Lin made a rough calculation, there are still many sidelines that have not been explored in this trial, but for the sake of safety, it is better to complete the main mission as soon as possible and return to the real world, so as not to make any more troubles, and the night will be long and dreamy.
The water in this trial world is far more than he imagined. If the plot digs deeper, it is very likely that the trial task will be raised to the point where it cannot be completed.
"Nightmare Difficulty"... is not the end.
Yi Lin has no shortage of death points for the time being, so there is no need to take such a risk.
The other pirates were quite surprised by the sudden addition of a first officer.
Obviously, before this, the captain of the "Skeleton Gentleman" did everything by himself, and the position of first officer was vacant, and no one could be him.
Charlie was even more surprised by the appearance of first mate Louis.
But when he saw first officer Louis come out of the captain's cabin with a haggard and vicissitudes of life, he instantly understood the truth and was deeply moved.
Naturally, he didn't dare to say anything, he could only silently stare at the mysterious back of the skeleton gentleman in the distance, and quietly nodded his praise.
Sure enough, a real man should know the man first.
"Why are you looking for... that guy?"
At this time, Yi Lin didn't hide anymore, she was beside Sachs, in case little Sa would secretly hide his compass and ask while asking.
Sachs stared blankly at the pointer of the compass,
Reply casually: "I'm looking for my father."
On the side, the drunk old Gibbs suddenly raised his head and looked towards Sachs.
Yi Lin: "Huh? What does your father have to do with this matter?"
Sachs shook his head: "My father said before leaving that as long as I can find that guy, I am qualified to be the son of the legendary pirate Captain Jack, otherwise, he will never appear in front of me to meet me."
Yi Lin: "..."
Ruth: "..."
Gibbs: "..."
This kid was obviously tricked by his father!
Yi Lin and Ruth swished their gazes at old Gibbs.
Old Gibbs gave a mocking smile, quickly lowered his head, avoiding other people's eyes, not daring to look more.
Yi Lin thought about it.
At this moment, Sachs seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly took out the binoculars, looking forward.
Yi Lin's spirit perked up.
At times like this, no one can relax their vigilance.
Strange to say, old Gibbs seemed to have anticipated the purpose of Yi Lin and the others, and apart from gulping rum, he didn't have much fear.
As for the other pirates, Yi Lin didn't dare to reveal her real purpose at all, otherwise, it was very likely that the gang of damned pirates would jump into the sea in fright, and would rather swim across the ocean than stay on this ship.
But in the end, if all goes well, Yi Lin doesn't need to use this boatman, because the moment the task is completed, he will return to the real world, and everything that happens in this world next has nothing to do with Yi Lin.
Huh?
Thinking about it carefully, a bit of reluctance appeared in Yi Lin's heart for no reason.
It's not that I don't want to give up on Ruth's proficiency, but that the sailing life during these days really left a deep impression on Yi Lin...a very interesting memory.
After Sachs gave a reminder, Yi Lin quickly took out a more professional telescope and looked in the direction Xiao Sa pointed.
A few seconds later, Yi Lin put down the binoculars expressionlessly.
Sachs looked shocked and stammered: "Boat, captain, why is there a person standing on the sea???"
"Don't bother him."
"But--"
"I said, don't bother him."
"But he's waving at us, and he's fast! Oh, damn, here he comes—"
in a minute.
Gu Tianqing brushed her wet hair back with a smile on her face: "Excuse me."
Immediately afterwards, Gu Tianqing looked at Yi Lin gracefully, and said with a slight smile, "The charming skeleton gentleman."
Yi Lin: "..."
Ruth: "???"
Sachs: "Charming?"
Old driver Gibbs: "Oh——"
Yi Lin sighed helplessly: "Don't tell me if you see through, brother."
Gu Tianqing: "At this point, is there any point?"
Yi Lin chuckled: "Indeed not."
Gu Tianqing: "So, cooperation?"
Yi Lin thought for a moment, Gu Tianqing said four words, and estimated that she could only believe one word.
combine?
do?
However, in fact, after Gu Tianqing operated a round, making the trial difficulty suddenly increased, the missions of the two camps merged into one, directly breaking the boundaries of the camps.
Whether it is the pirate camp or the naval camp, they must face "Calypso" and..."the devil" at the same time.
There is no difference anymore.
Therefore, there is indeed a basis for cooperation, and that is common interests.
But the gap in cooperation is also obvious. For the apostles, that is the distribution of benefits.
In the final main task, whoever can get a higher contribution will undoubtedly get a higher task evaluation.
The settlement evaluation is very important to the apostle, after all, it directly affects the level of the attribute value.
After thinking about it, Yi Lin smiled slightly: "Well then, the Demon King is mine."
Gu Tianqing's expression remained unchanged, and she whispered: "No problem, then Calypso will be mine."
In this world, Gu Tianqing didn't seem to be idle, she also inquired about the legend about Calypso, and even... had contact.
The boss is assigned instantly.
But neither Gu Tianqing nor Yi Lin would take this distribution method seriously.
It's just that no matter how stumbling blocks are made behind the scenes, the two will not tear each other apart until life and death are pitted against each other.
After all, everyone will return to the real world in the end. If you tear your face apart, you will undoubtedly have an enemy hiding in the dark, which is not worth it.
As the saying goes, everything stays on the line, so we can meet again in the future.
In Gotham City, Yi Lin also understood this truth. Finally, when facing the Laughing Bat, she gave the little fat man the initiative to choose whether to choose everyone to play the boss happily together, or force Yi Lin to use his hole cards to kill all of them. People are wiped out together with the BOSS.
It was also thanks to the fact that the little fat man's path was not narrowed, otherwise he would not be able to find a good wife like Su Xiaosu now.
The two talked in a low voice, and the others looked at the two whispering from a distance, feeling inexplicable, and there was an inexplicable smell brewing in it.
Ruth rubbed her forehead: "Oh, why do I feel that someone is going to be unlucky again."
Sachs agreed very much and nodded frantically.
While mourning for the stranger in front of the captain for a few seconds, he subconsciously reached into his arms, wanting to take out the lost and recovered treasure compass to check the direction of the devil.
And at this moment.
Sachs' eyes widened suddenly.
"Luo, Luo, where's the compass?"
Lost the compass again!
"Boat, Captain, my compass—"
Sachs found that the compass that he had been kicking in his arms had disappeared again strangely, and ran towards Yi Lin with a mournful face.
Yi Lin's tone suddenly became serious, and she stretched out her index finger in front of the mask: "Shhh wait, listen!"
This turning point was too mellow, and Yi Lin's voice was very loud, and everyone became quiet in an instant, listening intently.
Rumble——
Rumble——
Everyone's complexion changed slightly.
In the fog ahead, there was the faint sound of gunfire in the fog.
It's shelling!
"There are enemies ahead! There are enemies ahead!"
Xiao Sa notified the bad news as quickly as possible.
Fog ahead.
Gradually a large shadow appeared.
It's all... boats.
Yi Lin was very familiar with the shape of the shadow, and in just a few seconds, she judged that it was... a navy ship.
"Wait? Why is there another ship missing?"
Yi Lin suddenly turned her head, looked at Gu Tianqing who had a half-smile, thoughtful: "You tricked your teammates too?"
Gu Tianqing shook her head: "We have never had teammates."
"But..." Gu Tianqing's tone was slightly condensed: "They should have corresponding means, I just don't know if it will be useful."
As the Unsinkable approached in that direction, the sound of gunfire and the siren of the warship became more and more clearly discernible in the dense fog.
Yi Lin and Gu Tianqing looked at each other, and nodded slightly without any trace.
It seems that they thought of a piece.
To make a simple analogy, now one of the bosses has appeared, and friendly NPCs are aggressively besieging the boss, but since it is a trial of nightmare difficulty, the tower will never allow it, Yi Lin and Gu Tianqing hide at the side and fight until the end .
If they continue to hide, something will happen sooner or later, driving the two of them to a dead end, to the point where they have to act.
Instead of being so passive, it would be better to take the initiative while the friendly cannon fodder is still alive, maybe it can increase the success rate of killing and reduce the risk.
After all, this is a nightmare level of difficulty.
Never take it lightly.
If you hesitate, you will lose!
"captain!"
Being interrupted by Yi Lin, Xiao Sa even forgot for a moment that she had lost her compass, and the nervousness in her heart was written all over her face.
With trembling fingers, he pointed in the mist and several other directions, holding up the binoculars, looking left and right.
Just when Sachs spoke to remind him, something happened in the regeneration.
Everywhere in the mist, I don't know if it is a coincidence or other reasons, there are other ships passing through the mist, coming across the sea from all directions.
Those ships looked majestic, with their sails beating, and they were advancing at full speed.
Yi Lin's pupils shrank slightly, she concentrated her gaze, and looked more carefully.
Although the patterns of the flags on the mast can't be seen clearly, in the binoculars, the color of those flags...is black!
It's the skull flag!
Pirate's Skull Banner!
It's a pirate ship!
Why would other pirate ships come to join in the fun at this time?
Gu Tianqing smiled slightly: "The time has come."
Yi Lin lowered her head and didn't say much.
Wearing a mask, Yi Lin doesn't need to worry, Gu Tianqing can see through the mask to see through his micro-expressions.
If you really have such awesome perspective skills, can you still use it in this kind of place?
"Ruth, from now on, you must never approach that place again."
At the last moment, Yi Lin directly called out Ruth's real name. After all, this farewell may last forever.
"What about you?" Ruth was taken aback.
"goodbye."
Yi Lin chuckled, without nostalgia or hesitation, the BUFF had already been installed, and with the "plenty" buff, Yi Lin's attribute value reached the best state under normal conditions.
Go, go, go!
Together with Yi Lin, Gu Tianqing jumped off the deck almost in no particular order.
"!"
"Wang~"
A dog shadow that was almost forgotten had just finished gnawing on the bone, and followed the two of them high-spiritedly, and jumped into the sea.
While the two jumped into the sea.
Gu Tianqing drew the card in a second, and then crushed it. A jet skateboard that came from nowhere, was trampled by Gu Tianqing in mid-air, and fell into the wave.
Yi Lin also drew out a card, and after crushing it from an invisible angle that Gu Tianqing could not see, she activated the summoning skill at the same time to summon Night Dire.
hiss--
The process of summoning Dire did not have too gorgeous special effects. In the void, smooth and flowing textures appeared out of thin air. Immediately afterwards, at the end of the light, countless square light clusters of different sizes regrouped at the location designated by Yi Lin.
After the light faded, the night-gaunt mount with a dark body and a hideous appearance appeared on the sea.
The reason why it was so unnecessary was because in front of Gu Tianqing, Yi Lin didn't want to expose the fact that Dire was actually a "summoning mount".
Keep everything hidden, just in case.
Sure enough, Gu Tianqing just took a second look at Dire's appearance and exclaimed, "The appearance is not bad."
After riding Dire, Yi Lin lowered her head and glanced at the skateboard that Gu Tianqing was riding on, and also smiled: "Well, yours is not too small."
Gu Tianqing: "..."
Boom!
After Yi Lin rode Night Dire, a black shadow fell from the top of her head, and the dog landed on the front of the car with incomparable precision like a king returning, sitting cross-legged, very cool.
I feel that it will be more interesting to equip the dog with a helmet with goggles at this time.
Gu Tianqing had already heard many legends about the Skeleton Gentleman.
Seeing Wang Tiandi at this time, he took a deep look and didn't ask any questions.
Even if you ask, you won't get an answer.
Why bother to ask.
Gu Tianqing smiled slightly: "Before we set off, I secretly did a divination. This time, we should be safe and sound."
Yi Lin: "Hehe."
Believe me.
You are divining for yourself! Don't use the word "we"!
Having said that, Yi Lin is quite afraid of Gu Tianqing's ability similar to "precognition".
After Gu Tianqing finished speaking, she stepped on the skateboard, took a step first, and rushed into the dense fog.
Yi Lin nodded, Gu Tianqing didn't do that, Yi Lin also had this kind of plan.
The map is so big, there is no need for two apostles to squeeze together to fight the boss.
Since we are wary of each other, it is better to part ways.
Yi Lin drove the car slowly.
The card that was crushed just now turned out to be another bottle of [Magic Water].
He sat silently on the Night Dire for 30 seconds.
30 seconds later.
Power points are restored to full.
After the preparations were complete, Yi Lin set off again.
This time, because of the role-playing mode, the recovery ability brought by the Dionysus factor has no effect.
If you are not careful, you may be killed by the boss.
The navy used the firepower of nine warships, and after Gu Tianqing left, there was one less in a blink of an eye.
It is conceivable that that demon king is definitely not someone or a certain ship that can be easily taken down.
That's why Gu Tianqing brought the navy here as the last cannon fodder.
"Wang Tiandi, it's the last moment, should you give some strength?"
Wang Tiandi thought again.
Yi Lin: "..."
A few seconds later, Wang Tiandi grinned, turned the dog's head, and stretched out its paw towards Yi Lin.
Snapped.
With one hand and one claw, they clapped together.
Well, this is a trustworthy ally... After all, it is simple and easy to understand, but it is a bit doggy.
Rumble——
This time, Yi Lin didn't need to turn on the dark night mode, and turned the accelerator to the bottom in an instant, and the Night Dire roared like a beast, resounding through the sea.
Dire, the beast is out of the cage.
Nightmare at full speed cut through the vast ocean like a jet of black light.
The dog's hair was all blown behind the dog's head, rustling.
The black light reached the depths of the mist in an instant.
Rumble——
In the mist, artillery fire raged, row after row of cannonballs, as if they didn't want money, crazily blasted towards the dark ship shadow in the depths of the mist, and from the black ship shadow, it was also not to be outdone, a row of Platoons of shells were fired at other warships.
"The devil is a ship?"
Yi Lin squinted her eyes, and drove the night-gaunt through the dense fog. Everyone on the remaining eight warships was very nervous, busy dealing with the legendary demon king, and had no time to care about the night-gaunt shuttling on the sea.
From other directions around the navy, there were several pirate ships flying skull flags, and they approached the eight warships brazenly with the help of the wind.
Those later pirate ships were clearly aimed at the navy.
who is it?
Wang Tiandi, Yi Lin, and Gu Tianqing have all entered the battlefield at this moment.
When Shipwreck Bay was destroyed, Nicholas Zhao suffered heavy injuries. It was hard to say whether he would survive, let alone pull a new fleet out to fight against the Demon King.
"The rest is Indiana Jones? Why does this name always feel familiar?"
I don't know if it is because the map is too vast this time, and the level of the apostles is too low, limited by the way of movement. At the end of the trial, there are still apostles who have not yet shown up in the trial.
Boom boom boom boom——
There was no nonsense, and there was no prologue. After the approaching pirate ship sneaked into the range of the shells in the dense fog, without saying a word, it directly fired at the eight nearby warships and resolutely fired.
From Yi Lin's point of view, there was a tragic air of twisting her thigh with her arm.
hero!
Dare to take part in this kind of time.
As for Lucky 2, on the deck at this time, the navy fell into a brief chaos because of the pirate ships that suddenly appeared around it.
"It's pirates! Damn pirates!"
"Wait! That flag! It's the ship of the pirate 'New Generation' Indiana Jones!"
Tiramisu and the other two admirals all turned dark: "How could it be at this time? Damn it! Why did they enter the sea of mist at this time?"
"Master General, what should we do? What should we do?"
Tiramisu looked behind him without a trace, and the governor who was wrapped in a bandage and silent, said coldly: "Don't worry about them! Their backward shells can't penetrate our armor at all! People on deck, pay attention to pirates Shelling! If you can, leave some people to load the shells, and the others... board the damn pirate ship and engage in boarding battle!"
If the ship battle is about ships and guns, then the board battle is about the strength of troops and equipment, as well as everyone's combat power. At that time, the number of victims will definitely skyrocket in an instant.
After all, in this sea at this moment, the navy is under attack.
But the "devil king" who has been hiding in the thick fog, kept a distance from the navy, and has not even revealed his true colors is the goal that the navy has pursued for many years. Even if it is attacked by pirates, the navy will never give up!
"For the glory of the empire!"
"For the future of the empire!"
"Give our hearts!"
The navy is in high spirits!
After all, Your Excellency, the Governor, is going out with the navy... The navy is undefeated!
The three generals, as well as the mysterious governor, all gathered on Lucky 2 at the same time.
Other warships can be commanded by the adjutant. When necessary, it is not impossible to throw them out to sacrifice.
For that goal, any sacrifice is worthwhile.
As long as you can successfully capture the "devil king" in the mist...the one that sailed out of the secret base more than ten years ago...everything is worth it!
Go, go, go!
The three generals on the Lucky 2 did not send a signal to the other warships, so they pumped up their horsepower and accelerated towards the huge black shadow in the thick fog!
Go, go, go!
Take the lead!
The battle at the scene was extremely fierce. In just a few minutes, the pirate ship quietly approaching from all sides through the thick fog brazenly fought against the naval soldiers, hand-to-hand, and engaged in a boarding battle.
Except for the other warships of Lucky 2, Yi Lin's old acquaintances, Pope and Nolando were all on board.
After all, after many years of planning for the great cause of the navy, in order to restore the glory of the empire, they waited for more than ten years after getting the "magic and great governor", and finally waited for this day.
If it wasn't for the disappearance of the legendary pirate Jack Sparrow's magical compass, they wouldn't have to wait until today.
Waited for a generation!
Even in the generation of the navy that was first planned, many people retired for retirement, but they are also paying close attention to this matter.
All in order to successfully capture the devil!
The senior officials in the navy actually know the true face of the Demon King. It is a magical ship, a ship that forcibly broke out from the island of the secret base of the navy. That ship contains the real mystery of science and technology. To that magical ship, the technological level of the empire, there will be a leap forward!
Spreading the legend of the devil in the sea, spreading the fear of the devil, and conniving the pirates to gallop in the sea to a certain extent, just to have more eyeliners, to find that damned "devil ship" That's all!
A mere pirate is nothing to be afraid of!
In front of this specially strengthened warship—kill kill kill!
in the crowd.
Lieutenant General Pope held a big knife, and pulled out the latest continuous-fire "flintlock" from his back, which is the latest product of science.
Although it is not as good as the "only weapon" of the three generals, this kind of high-end firearm than the traditional flintlock can undoubtedly shoot the pirates into a sieve, no doubt.
suddenly--
Pope's eyes widened again.
etc.
Why again?
But it doesn't matter.
Including Pope, after the handover from ship to ship, bursts of terrifying and weird laughter came from the pirate ship, as if from the abyss of hell.
One after another, strange pirates appeared at the bow of the ship.
They all have pale skin, no pupils in their eyes, only the whites of their eyes.
On the pirates' bodies, there was almost no intact clothes, only tattered cloth strips were hung, which could barely cover the key parts.
And what frightened the marines the most was that the pirates on the opposite side were covered with stitches and repairs from head to toe, as if they had been forcibly pieced together with countless corpses, and some even had strange patterns on them. Tentacles, as the tentacles squirmed, drops of turquoise slime exuding a strange smell dripped onto the deck.
"Ghost, ghost, ghost—"
I don't know who screamed, breaking the short silence.
at the same time.
Gu Tianqing drove the jet skateboard and flexibly landed on the deck of one of the warships.
Because the scene was too chaotic, Gu Tianqing landed silently, and no one reacted after a while.
With a blank expression on his face, he quickly walked behind a lonely navy, and lightly patted the navy on the shoulder.
"Huh? Consultant Harushiro Amakusa, why do you—"
That's not the end of the story.
Gu Tianqing smiled and said, "Heh, for the glory of the empire, I will sacrifice your heart."
Marine soldier: "???"
in a minute.
Gu Tianqing skillfully used a delicate skinning knife to take out the still trembling heart of the navy soldier.
The scene... is indescribable.
Gu Tianqing was just as usual, with the same expression.
He held the heart carefully, and then opened his clothes.
Under the clothes, Gu Tianqing's body turned black and withered strangely, and the blood vessels that were darker than the skin color were clearly visible on the skin.
And on Gu Tianqing's weird and terrifying chest, where the heart is, there is a hole the size of a fist, but not a single drop of blood flows out of the hole.
Gu Tianqing put her hand deep into the hole expressionlessly.
Pia zips Pia zips PIA zips——
Gu Tianqing took out a heart as black and shriveled as rotten wood, and crushed it casually.
Gu Tianqing quickly replaced it with a fresh one, and only then did Gu Tianqing breathe a sigh of relief.
He opened the panel and looked at it for more than ten seconds.
At this time, if anyone else could see Gu Tianqing's panel, they would definitely be terrified by the terrifying scene in front of them.
In the [Curse] column, there are various curse entries densely packed, with no end in sight.
Gu Tianqing alone...had a whole body of curses on her back!
"Phew, this curse is too troublesome."
After changing the "heart", Gu Tianqing smiled again.
