Pirate Kingship

After leaving the Inquisition, Barbatila had been pampered for many years and had never fought with anyone. His adaptability was obviously a little rusty, but his basic fighting instincts were still there.

The [Bishop's Ring] on his hand burst into silver holy light, instantly increasing his power to the fifth-level legend. He retreated rapidly while chanting a prayer:

"Saint Michael, you are the archangel, please intercede for me!

Saint Michael, you protect the Orthodox Church, please intercede for me!

Saint Michael, you defeat the devil, please intercede for me!

Saint Michael, you collect souls, please intercede for me"

The majestic holy light of up to the fifth level resonated with the increasingly bright cross behind him, and the sacred and majestic aura suddenly descended on the Skeleton Church.

The church, which was densely packed with tens of thousands of skeletons, seemed to be quietly connected to another realm and suddenly became empty.

His chanting seemed cumbersome, but in fact, not only was the pronunciation clear, but it was also extremely fast.

At the same time when Vanessa's secret spell [Bayonetta], which seemed to be able to cut off everything in the world, fell.

A light gate appeared in the holy light, and suddenly two golden long staffs stretched out from it and appeared in front of the sword light.

It was two low-level two-winged angels transformed from martyred heroic spirits who rushed out from behind the door and desperately blocked in front of Barbatilla, trying to stop the sword light from continuing to fall.

Ding——!

Unfortunately, the secret spell [Bayonetta] allows Vanessa to use the breath of disaster to strengthen herself and exert a great power far beyond the limit of her body.

As long as the breath of disaster around is strong enough, she can hunt angels as a mortal!

This kind of two-winged angel is essentially just a slightly higher-level heroic spirit, and its power is far from enough to resist Vanessa's secret spell.

In an instant, it was neatly split in half by the sword light, turning into golden and silver light particles and disappearing into the air.

Then more winged angels flew out of the light gate, shouting the holy name of "Lord of Hosts", and rushed towards the sword light fearlessly.

In the flying light particles, others finally saw the true appearance of the "genuine" angel.

Overall, it is more human-like than the angels in "Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven", but it is also limited.

With wings on his back, his whole body is gold and silver, and his face is wearing a mask with a fanatical expression, as if he has no emotions of his own, and his hands and feet are bird claws, more like a winged man than an angel.

There is an indescribable weirdness and horror in the holiness, and the fear of others is far greater than respect.

The crack of [Creator] seems to have seriously affected the normal angel form, causing the "divinity" and "animal nature" in their bodies to begin to lose balance.

If it is put outside, instead of saying that this is an angel, it is said to be some kind of "bird man" weird, and there must be many people who will believe it.

Cardinal Archbishop Barbatilla had long been accustomed to it. While the low-level angels were constantly sending themselves to die, he quickly finished his last prayer:

"Saint Michael, Archangel, protect me in the days of war.

I humbly pray that the Lord will condemn the devil. Commander of the Lord's host, please, by the power of the Lord, throw Satan and other evil spirits who wander the world, seduce human souls, and cause them to perish, into hell!"

The cross behind him shone brightly, revealing a six-winged shadow.

After the decisive battle between the church and the [God of Funerals] Gris, the believers who survived the disaster in various countries saw an angel standing on the roof of a church in their country, wiping the blood off the sword, and then sheathing the sword.

The clergy told them that this indicated that the plague was completely over, and the archangel would continue to protect the Lamb of God.

In fact, the archangel did leave a shadow in the silver cross of the twelve skeleton churches, which could provide "holy descent" at critical moments.

Dang! Ding! Ding!

The last prayer fell, and the bells of heaven rang.

A six-winged pure white incandescent angel phantom, like a brilliant sun, jumped out of the cross and rushed into Barbatilla's body.

Six broad white wings grew behind him, and a blazing sword emerged in his hand.

His face became extremely indifferent. Barbatilla's face seemed to be wearing a cold and hard marble mask. He just raised his hand and blocked Vanessa's [Bayonetta] with the holy sword.

The invisible blade could no longer move forward.

"Ugh~"

However, the archangel phantom in Barbatilla's body, who had just "descended", suddenly seemed to smell something disgusting, and retched several times in a row.

Even Margaret and her group, whose condition was getting worse, saw "disdain" clearly from his marble-like cold and hard face.

The synchronization rate between the soul and the flesh also dropped significantly.

Obviously, although the shadow of the archangel only has the fighting instinct left.

But an angel who has reached this level must strictly abide by the eight virtues and all the commandments like the [Paladin], and of course will seriously resist Barbatilla, the possessed object with "all five poisons".

It is completely reasonable that he suddenly feels physically uncomfortable.

If the real body of the archangel with self-awareness is here, he might turn around and burn Barbatilla, the cancer of the church, to ashes.

Unfortunately, although he feels uncomfortable, his hand holding the sword is as stable as cast steel.

The power of the [Bishop's Ring] saved his life.

And at the intersection of the swords of both sides, the true appearance of the "invisible holy sword" in Vanessa's hand gradually emerged.

It was a translucent giant sword blade like ice, with a hint of dragon teeth.

The whole body was simple without any decoration, only sharp and pressing! The cold air penetrated the bones!

This was the sword of the founder of the North Sea Empire, [Blue Dragon King] Reinhardt, who killed the last fifth-level Blue Dragon King in the Old Continent and completely ended the era of the "Giant Dragon King's Court" - the first-level holy relic [Dragon Slayer Sword·Reinhardt].

The ancestors of the five royal families of the Bay People were all [Blue Dragon King] Reinhardt, and each branch inherited a part of the Pirate Emperor's property when they split up.

The ancestors of Iron Anchor Bay retained the most primitive "barbaric" habits of the Bay People, and they also stole the most things from their brothers.

Even though those "Bay People Exiles" who had converted to [Sleeping God·Kraken] stole a lot of good things from Iron Anchor Bay, there were still a lot left.

In addition to the [Pirate Code], the [Dragon Slayer Sword·Reinhard], which best symbolizes the royal power of the North Sea Empire, is one of them.

After killing the last Blue Dragon King, Reinhard used his teeth to recast his Dragon Slayer Sword and named it after himself.

This sword is two meters long and is in the shape of a two-handed heavy sword. Only the king or queen of the Bay Citizens with the blood of the Blue Dragon King can use it.

It can even be integrated into one's own blood and use the body as a scabbard. As long as you don't want it, no one can find where it is hidden.

Although it is a bit ironic, with the last dragon killed, there is no place for any "Dragon Slayer Sword" in the Old Continent.

But it does have a powerful special attack effect on the dragon bloodline.

And the second core ability is called [Power of the Former King]. Every former king of the Bay Citizens who has used it will deposit part of his power in it before death.

Destiny: If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight.

"A king who grew up in a bitter cold area must have the strongest will to lead his people to survive.

There are thirteen former kings who have used it. Only by enduring the pain of being stabbed by the former kings with swords can you borrow some of their power."

Vanessa, who is only at the fourth level, can only borrow the spirituality of three former kings at most, but it is enough for her to reach the legendary border and swing the sword at the archbishop who also has the fifth level power with the help of the ring.

This is the key to her previous ability to see through the whereabouts of the raven, and it is also the biggest reliance for her to dare to overturn the table just after escaping.

When Vanessa was besieged by a group of judge knights and demon hunters, she found that she couldn't beat them even if she took out the sword, so she could keep it secretly until now.

"Praise the Lord of Hosts!

Angel Legion, go and take down those relatives of Lancaster.

And you, witch Vanessa!

I will break your limbs and smash your spine with my own hands, so that you, a heretic who cannot learn to be grateful for the mercy of our Lord, can only live like a puddle of mud for the rest of your life.

And let your daughter and good son-in-law who dare to save you regret their audacity today every day from now on!"

Barbotila shouted angrily, and suddenly flapped his wings, turning into a stream of light and swooping towards Vanessa.

He himself is only a fourth-level corona priest, but with the blessing of the [Bishop's Ring], he is no less than an ordinary legend.

In addition, the "Holy Descent" Archangel has a stronger effect than the ordinary "God of Heaven", and if you completely give your body to the other party, you can naturally perfectly control the surging power.

At the same time, a large number of winged angels behind him continued to pour out, gathering behind him and turning into a sea of ​​light, launching a collective charge towards a group of women.

Vanessa was trying to endure the pain of the sword stabbing her chest, ready to fight head-on, but she was stunned when she heard the words:

"Wait! What did you say? Son-in-law? Whose?!"

She could understand every word the other party said, but when these words were combined, she couldn't understand what they meant at all, and her brain was a little down for a while.

After more than ten years in prison, the last impression of her daughter, Violet, was only less than ten years old, and she was only able to pull her skirt and act coquettishly.

Now, before she saw her daughter again, she suddenly had the "surprise" of a son-in-law, which shocked her more than meeting her old enemy, Barbatilla, halfway.

She knew who this "son-in-law" was without the other party naming him.

"I regard you as my sworn brother, but you regard me as???"

The first reaction was - death penalty! Must be death penalty!

When masters fight, the winner can be decided by a millimeter, and Barbatilla, who is in the state of "God descending", will naturally not miss this good opportunity.

The blazing holy sword in his hand, condensed from holy light, thrust forward.

It looked like Vanessa was about to suffer.

The side wall of the [Skeleton Church] and the wall of the underground prison suddenly exploded together.

The biting cold wind instantly blew through the entire Skeleton Church, the candles went out, and countless skeletons were quickly covered with a layer of white frost.

Da Da Da.

Under the leadership of a black-armored knight with the breath of death and storm, a torrent of steel with iron hooves burning with pale blue ghost fire rushed in together on the nearly vertical cliffs.

In the shadows, it was unknown how many thousands of undead knights were behind.

Buffalo horns and tattered feather crowns shook on their helmets, and their skin was even paler under the deathly gray masks.

The skeleton horse under his crotch was wrapped in ragged horse clothes, and the lightning-shaped blade in his hand emitted dazzling electric light from the outside world.

Compared to the angels pouring out of the light gate, this group of Wild Hunt Knights is more suitable for this skeleton church.

The halo above Byron's head once again transformed into a crown of light, and he had transformed into the complete pirate king [Uncrowned King] with the help of the royal domain of the [Golden Deer].

The thick lance in his hand, flashing with lightning, pointed directly at the flank of Barbatilla.

If the latter dared to ignore the stronger Byron and continue to attack Vanessa, she would be stabbed through the chest before she could retract her sword to defend.

She could only grit her teeth and forcibly turn the sword to meet Byron's spear head.

Boom——!!!

The tip of the sword and the tip of the spear collided fiercely, bursting out a ball of blazing white sun, and the loud noise made the architectural structure of the church buzz.

The shock wave of the explosion tore everything between the two people, including the rocky ground, skull candlesticks, chandeliers, etc., into pieces.

Byron gained the full bonus of spirituality, strength, speed, power, etc. from the [Wild Hunt Legion] behind him, and was even stronger than when he fought against the [Puppet King].

However, the Archbishop who relied on cheating to reach the fifth level was far inferior to the Puppet King Louis.

Barbatila took two steps back involuntarily, and finally stopped the momentum.

Behind him, Vanessa, who had gained the double bonus of [Power of the Former King] and the aura of disaster, and whose aura was surging, also stabbed him in the back with a sword.

If a father heard that his own juicy cabbage was pushed by a pig without paying attention, he would probably chop the pig first.

But Vanessa, as a mother, reacted much better.

At the critical moment of the battle, put the matter of "son-in-law" aside for the time being, and chop the pig after defeating the powerful enemy.

Swoosh——!

Three afterimages flashed, and the buildings in the Skeleton Church exploded one after another in the aftermath of the battle.

Barbatilla was surrounded by them from front and back, and he was in danger while dodging hastily. Soon, there were more bloodstains on his body.

Suddenly, a crisp female voice came from the hole in the skeleton church:

"Byron, Mom, get out of the way!"

Byron and Vanessa responded immediately.

At the same time, a large-caliber rifle bullet with a 32-fold power increase by [Death Roulette] avoided their attack route under the manual guidance of a gun spirit and hit the archbishop.

Violet's overall strength is only level 4, but her attack power is long enough to serve as a long-range support for the siege level 5.

Barbatilla, who had no choice but to block the six wings behind him, was blasted away by the irresistible explosion and embedded in the wall of the church.

Unlike the original [Puppet King], the body of this archbishop is still mortal, and his ability to withstand blows is far less than the former.

There was a "crackling" sound, and the hands and feet were twisted and broken, and countless bones were broken. Then they fell to the ground with a snap.

Even though he struggled to get up and used the Holy Light to repair his injuries, his aura was obviously weakened.

"Stop! Byron Lancaster, do you want all your relatives to die of illness? Don't you want all these precious anchors?

The Black Death is incurable, only I can save them!"

Barbatilla was a step slower and failed to take the hostages before Byron entered.

Turning his head, he saw that the angel army that was going to capture Margaret and her group was also blocked by Byron's Wild Hunt Legion, so he could only play the last trump card.

After Aunt Margaret and her group were released from the locks by Vanessa, their own extraordinary abilities had returned.

However, even the strongest fourth-level [Law Master] Margaret could not intervene because this was not her "land".

I simply took my sisters-in-law to hide in a corner. At this time, as long as I didn't run around and get in the way, I would be considered helping.

Christina, the [Pharmacist] among the aunts, was particularly busy. Her main professional ability at the third level was called [Blood Healing Potion].

Under the continuous suppression of the church, although the doctors did not know the specific principles, they could use the blood of other healthy humans to make potions to cure some patients.

They could even use the blood of powerful knights, wise men, and even monsters to make temporary enhancement potions to increase certain specific abilities of their own side.

[Blood Healing Potion] is often mixed with bloodletting therapy.

Unfortunately, a good cook cannot cook without rice. Christina had neither tools nor healthy human materials that had successfully survived the Black Death.

She could only release her own immune aura with all her strength to help herself and a group of sisters prevent the disease from worsening, but it was just a drop in the bucket to fight against the [Skeleton Church].

Until the raven Fukin landed beside them, unfolded a surgical table with a diameter of three meters, and wrapped them all in it.

[Father of Medicine] The original basic ability [Immune Blood] needs a certain amount of time for the vaccine to be effective. Now, once [Surgical Operating Table] is turned on, the Black Death will be instantly removed.

The black spots, pain, fever, and all the symptoms on their bodies disappeared.

Christina couldn't help but widen her eyes:

"Miracle, this is simply a medical miracle."

Barbatilla was about to use the broken skeleton church to aggravate their condition, and wanted to take hostages to make Byron and his party retreat.

But he found that the "poisoning" ability that had been successful in the past was silent like a stone sinking into the sea.

Not only could he not aggravate Margaret's condition, he couldn't even poison Byron and his party.

It was as if a drop of water fell on a lotus leaf, leaving no trace.

This lucky guy was not a man of strong willpower. The successive failures made him scream in disbelief:

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

But he only made sounds from his throat. The stiff mask feeling on his face became more and more serious, and the emotions in his eyes became more and more indifferent.

His body began to swell quietly, the fleshy part gradually disappeared, and there were angel-like golden and silver claws, as well as human face armor with horror and absurdity

Obviously, just like all the "Gods of Heaven" obtained by trickery, the external "Gods of Heaven" were taking advantage of his loss of mind and difficulty in self-control to assimilate his soul bit by bit.

Now even his flesh and blood began to alienate, and it would not take long for him to become someone else's shape from the inside out, and become a fighting machine with only a "mechanical mind".

Although as an orthodox "priest", his final ending was to become another male shape, which was also his own fault.

But Byron did not want to fight a real archangel at all, even if he was left with only residual blood.

Without waiting for him to complete his transformation and use his second form to fight them for the second time, he immediately took out the first [Stock] and stretched out his hand:

"Sell all the investments in Barbatilla and settle the equity."

Bang——!

A golden fishing hook was thrown out, and the sound of the fishing line being tightened was heard.

A dark golden ball of light was hooked out of the archbishop's body.

"Don't——!"

The archbishop let out a terrifying scream, and his body shrank again like a leak, and his breath plummeted.

"Be careful of the problem, and keep the alarm bell ringing! Don't stretch your hand, or you will be caught. From the moment you accepted my bribe, the ending of today was doomed."

Byron pronounced a sentence righteously like a judge, then spread his palm and was stunned when he saw the thing in his hand.

Probably because the [Holy Spirit] claimed the power, the value of the things extracted this time was far more than 30,000 pounds.

"Hiss! This is actually a part of the [Funeral God] Gris's remaining [Underworld Authority]?"

When the Archangel Shadow was wearing away the "beast nature" of the evil god, it had already merged with it for more than two hundred years, and it was also the foundation for it to survive here forever.

When the hook was drawn just now, this authority was randomly drawn out.

Byron closed his palms, and the light ball automatically merged into his body, and he instantly felt a sense of fullness.

At this time, he had: the [Lord of Heaven] of the Taino natives, the [King of the Wild Hunt] of the Bay People, and the [Funeral God] of the countries of the Old Continent.

It is equivalent to gathering the Underworld authority in the collective subconscious of all races in the Old Continent, Bantaan, and the South Continent.

Even if only a small part belongs to the [Funeral God], the volume is large enough.

Now, no one can find more Hades authority than Byron in several continents, even the [Creator].

The Hades represents the interference power on the collective subconscious sea, and even the dark side of the world, the "Sea of ​​Source".

Byron had a hunch that when he was promoted to the fifth-level [False God], this unique and complete authority might bring him unexpected huge benefits.

"This investment is really worth it! Mr. Barbatila, you are such a good person."

Seeing that the defeated general still wanted to run, Byron immediately rushed up and swung his sword to cut off one of his arms.

He grabbed his [Bishop's Ring] tightly in his hand.

Most of the 98 cardinals of the Church Cardinals relied on a bishop's ring and the church's bottom-level authority in the legal system to be on par with the fifth level.

The ring belongs to the church, not to a certain individual or a certain family.

As long as the fourth-level extraordinary person of the Temple Sequence can be recognized by the ring, it can be used universally.

Although Byron himself is not a priest of the Temple Sequence, he cannot use such a precious treasure.

This [Bishop's Ring] is a must for him to take advantage of the popularity of Protestantism, establish the Royal State Religion, and be the master of his own house.

Even the candidate for the Archbishop has been selected.

"My Archbishop Reserve [Mother of Mercy] Miss Theresa is still an ally bound by the bond of interest. We need to change to a more in-depth way of binding.

At least she must be transformed into a blood family that can never betray."

Then he shook his head and shook out the "Nun's Fall", "Pink Stigmata" and other strange things that he didn't know what they were from his mind.

Babotila, who was completely at the end of his rope, endured the pain and knelt on the ground decisively, begging for mercy with a piety that even the [Creator] had never enjoyed:

"Spare my life, Your Majesty the Pirate King, let me go, let me go.

It was all the White Rose York Family who instructed me to do it, it's none of my business!"

Not long ago, he was still high above and pointed out the country, wanting the Bay People to fight to the last man, but now he is throwing the blame on York without any integrity.

But even if he didn't have a deep hatred for his mother-in-law, Byron never had the habit of letting the tiger go back to the mountains. He just felt that there was not much time left, so he decided to give him a quick death.

Looking at Barbotila's flattering eyes, he sighed with compassion:

"Alas, who made me kind-hearted? I will give you the happiest way of death suitable for ancient nobles."

There is a bloodless happy death in the Old World, which is specially suitable for the upper class with noble status, so that they can leave the world decently.

The specific method is to let the two beauties serve to bathe and clean the body, which means to wash away sins and leave the world cleanly.

Then, after reaching extreme bliss with the two beauties, pick up the strong poison wine prepared in advance and drink it all. If you have the physical strength, you can do it again with the beauties.

The whole process is painless and you will feel ecstatic until you die.

Byron turned his head and led his aunt and others out, and told Violet, who had quietly come to them and hugged her mother's arm:

"Miss, give him two "little boys."

Yes, other people's happiness is beauties, but Barbatilla's happiness can only be little boys.

"Can there be such a good thing when you are dying?"

When he looked up at Violet, two things flashing with intense red light fell towards him, and he subconsciously reached out to catch them.

When he looked closely, what fell into his hands were two glass bottles of [Blood and Fire Song], and they were even larger than 42-pound shells. "Big bottle".

Moreover, Violet used her title ability [Art is Explosion] (mass-energy equation) that can turn anything into an explosive to greatly enhance their power.

She just wrote a phrase on the surface of each bottle: "Codename: Little Boy".

Then

A real man never looks back at the explosion.

Boom--! ! !

A huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky.

When the pirate fleet disappeared into the blue hole one by one, half of the Malta Monastery built on the cliff also collapsed in the violent explosion, and then slid into the sea as a whole.

Not to mention the clues to the murderer, even the bones and residues of his own people could not be found.

Byron raised his hand to collect the souls of all the dead, ready to pack them and send them to Edward to enrich the coolie farm of "United Pharmaceutical Company".

After reading Barbatilla's memory, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth:

"The York family ordered the poisoning? Then it's your turn next.

I originally wanted to send you on the road when I stole the country. Since you are so restless, I will help you find some fun first."
