Chapter 77 Magic Stone

On the ghost island, the movement gradually died down. The huge body of the bull-headed ghost python was lying in the mess, motionless and lifeless, and the ghost hand had already fallen into a pool of blood.

Falling off Smaug and standing in front of the corpses of the Minotaur and the Ghost Hand, Sean's lips curved into a cold smile.

"Is the Montel family's stuff really so easy to get?"

As he finished speaking, brown roots protruded from Sean's body and twisted into the body of the Minotaur Ghost Python. Its hard scales failed to stop him.

In order to exert the strongest combat power, and also for the body of the Minotaur Ghost Python, Sean brought out the Devil Fruit Tree this time.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the Minotaur Ghost Python wrapped in a large number of roots completely disappeared from the land, leaving no trace except for blood and broken scales.

At the same time, a new devil fruit prototype quietly took shape, the legendary animal species Minotaur Python. Yes, it is not an extraordinary species, but a legendary species. It can be promoted to the fourth level during this time period. The entire Minotaur Devil Fruit is There may only be one mutant monster in the world, and its potential can be imagined.

The flames were burning and the chaos continued. After the death of Ghost Hands, the pirates on Ghost Island completely lost hope. Many people were struggling to their death. However, due to the scarcity of the number of people, Sean and others had not yet carried out the attack on Ghost Island. Effective control.

However, with the port under control, it will be extremely difficult for the remaining pirates to escape from Onigashima. In such a vast and dangerous sea, trying to escape from Onigashima with a simple raft or boat is simply committing suicide slowly. .

Two days later, peace returned to Onigashima. With the assistance of the Black Crow Pirates and the guidance of Mahar, the former second-in-command of the Evil Pirates, most of the Evil Pirates' pirates became Sean's prisoners. , the rest were either killed or had already gone to sea to gamble their lives.

In the pirate's lair, Sean, who was talking to the rescued Goli Montel, saw Viper with a sickly smile.

As the viper's palm spread out, Sean saw a black stone the size of an egg.

"This thing is..."

The spirit came into action, his brows furrowed slightly, Sean had some guesses in his mind, but also some uncertainties.

"Magic Stone."

Without going around in circles, Viper gently spit out two words.

Squinting his eyes slightly and opening his spiritual vision, Sean discovered that there was indeed a hazy purple color around the inconspicuous black stone, which was an important symbol of the magic stone.

Reaching out to take the magic stone, and looking at it carefully, Sean fell into silence.

In the Black Iron Age, magic stone was an unfamiliar term, but in the Bronze Age, Silver Age, and Golden Age before that, magic stone was an important extraordinary resource with a wide range of uses. In the past years, it even became a The general equivalent of wizards and even the entire supernatural world.

Since the resurgence of the first magic wave, the magic power concentration in Boya World has been rising at a slow but steady rate, but for now, the magic power concentration is still thin, and in this case a magic stone vein The appearance of Sean means a lot.

“Where is the vein?”

"In the snake cave of the Minotaur Ghost Python, there is a magic node and the terrain is special, so the magic stone vein appeared."

Hearing the words of Viper, Sean seemed to understand why the Minotaur Ghost Python was able to advance to the fourth level during this period without the support of major forces. It has an outstanding bloodline of mutant monsters plus a large number of demons. Stone and other factors, it is indeed possible to advance to the fourth level.

"What's the reserve capacity of the vein?"

After pondering for a while, Sean asked again.

"Hiss, the details are still unclear and require professional surveying, but based on my experience, this vein is not small and the quality is good. And with the further recovery of the demonic tide, it has the potential to grow.

"

At the end, Viper's cold words were also tainted with a hint of excitement. With a large number of magic stones, his experiments had more possibilities.

"Block the news and don't let others know that there are magic stone veins on Ghost Island for the time being."

Sean's tone was low, and there was an unquestionable meaning in his words. These words seemed to be addressed to Viper, but his eyes fell on Goli Montel. Compared with Viper, Goli Montel's trust The degree is undoubtedly lower.

"Okay, Lord, please rest assured."

Feeling Sean's gaze, Goli Montel stood up from his chair, performed a knight's salute, and solemnly expressed his attitude.

In response, Sean nodded with satisfaction and showed him a gentle smile.

Goli Montel, a sideline of the Montel family, graduated from the Artillery Department of the Kingdom's Army University. After graduation, he first served in the Kingdom's Fifth Artillery Regiment, then returned to the family and was transferred to the new artillery regiment. He has been conducting secret training, this time as an artilleryman. The instructor was sent to the New World by the Montel family to assist Sean in building a new artillery unit.

Because this mission was relatively sensitive, no one in the entire fleet knew the identity of Goli Montel, except for the chief commander Senior. It was precisely because of this that he was able to successfully keep the secret. After surviving, for such a person, Sean is still willing to give him some trust, after all, they have the same surname.

The development of magic stone veins is imperative, but for now, we need to keep a low profile. Making a fortune quietly is the way to go.

Ghost Island is isolated overseas, far away from Greenfield Town. Although Sean's high-end supernatural power is not weak at present, the overall maritime power is not enough. The magic stone vein is a big piece of fat. Once the news is leaked, I am afraid that It will cause a lot of trouble.

Temporarily ending the conversation about the magic stone veins, Sean brought the topic back on track.

"Are there any heavy losses to the artillery transported this time?"

"Fortunately, Lord, I checked. Except for two 75mm artillery parts missing, everything else is complete."

In order to facilitate transportation, all the artillery of the Montel family were dismantled into parts. After plundering these things, the Demon Pirates were curious about the uses of these things, and even interrogated many prisoners, but unfortunately found nothing. .

For the sake of safety and concealment, this time only Goli Montel in the Montel family's fleet knew the true use of these artillery pieces, and the others had no idea what they were.

"That means there are still 22 complete artillery pieces."

Upon hearing Goli Montel's words, Sean's eyes flashed.

The artillery shipped by the Montel family this time are all newly developed 75mm field guns, loaded in the rear chamber and engraved with rifling. Both the range and power are far beyond the current mainstream smoothbore guns. They are the latest from the Oak Roots Research Institute. one of the research results.
