Pirate Kingship

The world's fastest three-masted sailing ship [Golden Deer] wasted too much time because of that naval battle.

When they were still trying to return, Iron Anchor Bay had already fallen into night again.

Neither the free pirates nor the local residents in the bay realized that the danger had quietly arrived.

"Hey, Hall, look at the seaside, what is that?

I just saw something shining."

The two children holding wooden swords and wooden shields were playing and exercising on the beach of the island. They forgot the time to go home and seemed to have found some treasure.

They dropped their weapons and ran to the beach.

They surrounded the thing that seemed to be washed ashore by the sea with the rising tide.

To be more precise, it was a corpse.

The expression on its face was a little hideous and distorted, as if it had experienced some extremely painful and terrifying things before death.

But in that pain, there was a faint and strange smile, which made people feel cold in their hearts.

There were two bright silver coins in the eye sockets.

Just now, it was they that reflected the lights on the shore, causing one of the children to notice their existence.

Perhaps because of the different education they received since childhood, the two children were not afraid of the corpses in front of them at all, but were eager to try:

"I've heard my uncle say this before.

At a pirate funeral, two coins must be placed in the eye sockets of the deceased to buy tickets for the ghost ship, so that they can go to the world of the dead.

Those of noble status or particularly cruel put gold coins, the most common is to put silver coins, and the lowest status may also put copper coins.

This is probably an unlucky guy who just happened to float in with the ocean current."

"But this person has red hair, and he doesn't look like one of us Bay people.

Anyway, it's a waste to leave it here, why don't we each take a silver coin to buy a bottle of rum?

I've long wanted to try what the wine that only adults can drink tastes like, so let's drink it to our heart's content this time."

"Okay, one each!"

Without any disagreement, the two friends happily reached a consensus.

But when each of them picked up a silver coin with a strange octopus pattern cast on it.

The corpse suddenly opened a pair of gray eyes, and reached out to grab the wrists of the two children holding the silver coins like lightning.

The seal was lifted!

"Ah!" "Ah!"

With two short screams, the two children were dragged into the water by the corpse.

Even though they were excellent swimmers, the water surface that was so close seemed far away, and they could not swim up no matter how hard they swam.

At the same time, the cold sea water in winter made them lose temperature quickly, and soon their hands and feet twitched and lost their movements.

It took a while before they slowly floated to the surface of the water, and also turned into two floating corpses.

The corpse at the beginning turned back to its original appearance.

It was just that the bloody side of the octopus silver coin in the eye socket was facing up again, and the blood color was a little darker.

It contained the group elements of the local Bay people.

-- Heroes or villains, the resilience of camels, the ferocity of lions, and the vitality and hope of children.

The harsh living environment created their national characteristics of ice and fire.

This also means that the evil spirit has regained its freedom and obtained a supernatural body.

[Evil Spirit·Drowning Spirit:

Almost everywhere there is water, there are legends of drowned people.

They will transform into treasure chests, gold and silver, beautiful women, or even just a small green vegetable to attract passers-by to go into the water.

And once you fall into its trap, you will drown tragically in the water.

Taboo: Restrain greed, as long as you don't touch water, it will not be able to cause any harm to you. ]

Obviously, the privateers who returned successfully did not delay even a quarter of an hour, and released all the evil things they successfully captured.

On the other side of the island, a "blind box" opened by a shepherd was equally deadly.

Just when he greedily picked up two silver coins, the body suddenly split in the middle, and the elastic human skin suddenly wrapped him up.

It turned into a squirming translucent meat ball.

Even if the shepherd struggled hard, he couldn't tear the thin membrane.

When everything calmed down, a figure stood up from the ground again.

Only the "shepherd" with a wooden face was there, and the human skin was nowhere to be found.

[Grotesque·Thief

It is a combination of the soul of the dead who died by dragging the keel and a sea slug "leaf sheep".

Leaf sheep have a "thief physique". By eating seaweed, they can obtain the other's chlorophyll and photosynthesize in the body of an animal.

In simple terms, as long as I eat you, I can become you, and I will always have your abilities. Whatever I eat is what I am.

Its ability is a bit like the food supplement for gourmets, but it is much more powerful and unreasonable.

At the same time, it will always emit the breath of low-end creatures in the food chain, making people want to eat it when they see it.

Eating it is also the beginning of being eaten.

Taboo: Please wear the strongest toxic warning color in nature, such as: red, orange, yellow, black or a mixture of these colors, so that it thinks you can't eat it. 】

[Grotesque·Eater] took two steps and seemed to be unaccustomed to it. He swallowed a goat that followed him and turned into a goat.

Then he staggered towards the port city.

I don't think any pirate ship would refuse such a fat goat to board, in every sense.

At the same time, some pioneers have already entered the city.

In the dark alley.

A mass of black shadows with mouths all over the body, and only this kind of organ, flows on the ground like asphalt.

From the mouth, there are sometimes cries of children, and sometimes cries for help from women and old people:

"I'm so hungry!"

"Help me, help me!"

But once someone steps into the shadow where it is, they will be swallowed up, leaving only a mouth growing on its body.

[Weird Thousand Throat Shadow

Although it doesn't know what it means, it can instinctively imitate various human calls for help.

The more mouths on the body, the more powerful it is.

Taboo: The hunting method is ambush, and it rarely takes the initiative to attack. When encountering such a grotesque, don't believe your ears.

Lights will disgust it, and fire will be fatal to it. 】

Except for the [Human-faced Whale Louse] that was just annihilated by the [Golden Deer], and the [Ripper] that only had one silver coin.

There are a total of thirteen of these weird and weird evil spirits wandering around the entire Anchor Bay.

Most of them can kill people invisibly, and are far more dangerous than the extraordinary people who can be judged by common sense.

Even if it is a second-level professional extraordinary person, if he accidentally runs into their killing rules without knowing the details, he may capsize in the gutter.

More importantly, the [Octopus Silver Coins] all point to the existence of a high mystery, making all prophecies below the high sequence invalid.

The law enforcement team soon realized that something was wrong, but they had a lot of strength but nowhere to use it.

Chaos!

On the surface, Anchor Bay is still singing and dancing.

But in every corner of the city, Bay residents and drunken Bay pirates disappear quietly at every moment.

The huge influx of pirates had already overwhelmed the public security system, and these evil spirits and weirdness became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The high-ranking officials of the Bay Citizens could no longer bother to find trouble with those potential unstable factors.

Wearing a mask and a cloak, the [Gunpowder Artist] stood on the lighthouse of the port.

Listening to the continuous reports from the [Whale Bone Amulet·Whale Song], the face under the mask was extremely ugly.

"Divination failed, tracking failed, and spiritual communication failed. The new large number of assassins only attacked mortals and never attacked extraordinary people.

The success rate of the crime was 100%, there were no survivors and no witnesses.

It was suspected to be the product of a highly mysterious ritual."

Gnashing his silver teeth, he even took back the living bomb that was about to be sent to the anchorage of the Privateer Alliance, and jumped into the city.

Behind her, on the deck of the [Vengeance], which was like a small fortress.

Redbeard gently shook a glass of red wine, reflecting the entire Anchor Bay and the grin on his face. The wine slowly spun, dazzling like blood.

"The elements of Lancaster and the Bay residents are all in place.

This time, as long as the net is successfully closed, not only the diehards in Anchor Bay, but also the [Devil's Son] who obviously had very bad luck and chose to hide here will not be able to escape.

And I, Edward Redbeard, will eventually be crowned king on this sea!"
