Chapter 211 9 The Boots of Destruction Finally Fall

Chapter 211 9. The boots of destruction finally fell

The changes overnight reached their peak in the early morning of the next day, which surprised the pirates in the entire Virginia Port. Both the novice navigators and the veteran sailors noticed that the ocean was changing.

The ocean currents and sea breezes have changed.

Ship sizes have appeared on the sea in the distance. After talking with them, we learned that those ships came from other islands in the Caribbean.

They claimed that they saw the incarnation of the sea goddess Ms. Clepso with their own eyes last night, and asked them to set off immediately to seek the last refuge under the doomsday.

The sea goddess fulfilled her agreement with Mason and has tried her best to control the ocean currents to open up a "fast channel" for other survivors.

As long as you enter this unique and magical ocean current, you can reach Virginia City within a few hours even if you are far away in the Atlantic Ocean, and you don’t even need to control the course, just follow the sea breeze.

But Clepso’s actions were not informed to the pirate kings in the port, which made the members of the Pirate King Council headed by Barbossa shocked and angry.

At this time, they put all their energy into expanding the territory and thought that this was a "solo move" by the sea goddess. Now they were shouting angrily that they would take the trident that could check and balance Collipso to ask the sea goddess for an explanation.

This was not in the plan of the Pirate King Council.

Obviously, they still did not understand the fundamental reason that prompted the sea goddess to do this.

"Wow"

The door of the conference hall occupying the most luxurious area of ​​Virginia City was pushed open by two pirates wearing armor, one tall and one short, who nodded and bowed.

Mason, who was wearing an invisible cloak as a "robes", did not go in immediately.

He stood on this high place and overlooked the entire huge and bustling city in front of him. From here, it is not difficult to see that the city still has various traces left after being breached by zombies.

But in just over half a month, the survivors who were no longer afraid of viruses and zombies rebuilt the first city in the post-apocalyptic era in the ruins.

They burst out with unimaginable enthusiasm for construction.

Even though there were a large number of zombies gathering not far from the city, it did not stop the civilians from repairing the collapsed houses.

"Give them a little more time, they can even open up fields. Looking at the smiles on those people's faces, I really can't harden my heart to tell them that the life of this world is less than two days.

It may even be in the next second."

Barbara beside Mason said with some regret:

"They are so hardworking, but unfortunately fate is not tolerant of them."

"It doesn't matter."

Er Tong, wearing a red helmet, carried Mr. Hunter's sword and said calmly:

"When they go to Peter's place, there are many abandoned cities for them to live in. They can repair as many as they want! Survival is the most important thing now. People who have experienced the ravages of the 'Black Death' should understand this very well."

Mason did not express any emotion. Before entering the noisy hall in front of him, he took out the hourglass he carried with him and looked at it again. There was not much sand left on the top.

"John, how is the situation over there?"

Mason asked in the team communication, and Zha Kang's listless voice soon sounded:

"Jack and I found the largest door in the city, which is also the gate of this city. It is not a problem for dozens of people to pass through at the same time. Now we are resetting the components of the transfer gate.

This thing needs to be debugged. Fortunately, it is a magic item so I can handle it.

It will take at most an hour."

"As soon as possible."

Mason said, and then strode into the conference hall in front of him.

This was originally the city hall of this city. It is now occupied by the pirate kings to discuss some strange and messy things, such as the flags and emblems of various pirate kingdoms that they just established three days ago.

As Barbara said, when seeing these guys responding to the new life in the future with such great enthusiasm, even Ertong was a little moved.

It is difficult to convince them to give up these things.

But fortunately, Mason has special "persuasion skills", and he feels that he does not need to waste time.

"Hey, Lord Mason! Your arrival really makes this city shine!"

When Mason walked into the hall, many people he knew or didn't know stood up and greeted him.

Some of them were heroes he had met on Turtle Island before, and some were other sea heroes who came here later to "join in the celebration."

But without exception, these guys knew who gave them the power to resist the Black Death, so although most of them were unruly bastards, they all maintained at least superficial respect for Mason.

This is a good thing.

The lord of Virginia City, the legendary pirate Barbossa, dragged his wooden legs and gave Mason a warm hug. The old sea dog dressed himself up like an upper-class noble.

The only problem is that no matter how luxurious the clothes and wigs are, they can't cover up the smell of the sea on this guy.

"Did you instruct the Colippso incident, my friend?"

He pulled Mason onto the podium with a fake smile on his face and asked in a low voice.

"Let's not talk about this today. I have something more important to tell you."

Mason smiled in return.

He looked at the various strange flags planted around the high platform and the representatives of various forces who were full of seats below and chatting among each other. After pondering for a few seconds, he placed the hourglass in his hand on the table in front of him and cleared it. Throat, said:

"Everyone, my reappearance is to give you a warning. The end is coming, it is on the way, and soon this world will no longer exist."

The big pirates in the first row almost immediately stopped whispering, and the silence quickly spread to the entire hall, and everyone became quiet.

They suspected they had heard wrongly.

But from Mason's serious face, they saw that this guy didn't seem to be joking, so an even louder noise suddenly filled the hall.

There was also an irritable guy who stood up to question. Unfortunately, no matter how loud his voice was, it was quickly drowned in the chaos.

"boom"

A gunshot a few seconds later interrupted all discussions and consternation. Barbossa, with a gloomy face, held a flintlock gun still emitting smoke in his hand.

He stood up, stared at Mason, and said in a bad tone:

"Friend, this joke is not funny!"

"I'm sure I'm not kidding, Barbossa."

Mason took out his penguin umbrella.

The handle of the evil ghost umbrella that originally contained the umbrella sword was replaced with a golden, exquisite solid ball covered with geometric patterns. Like a special scepter, it emitted a golden shimmer under the touch of Mason's fingers.

It was like a faint halo spread out from around him, and Golden Apple's thinking force field opened.

At this moment, in the eyes of even the most unruly pirate, the speaking Lord Mason was filled with a majesty that could not be looked directly at, and the noisy hall immediately fell silent.

They strained their ears to listen to Mason's next words, a voice telling them that these words were important and that they must obey.

Mason said:

“When the last bit of gravel leaked out, it was the end of the world. My companions and I spent a lot of time examining all this and trying to find ways to resist it.

Unfortunately, the end is unstoppable.

Fortunately, we have ways to avoid disaster.

At most two hours later, a door to another world will open at the gate of Virginia City. Through that door, you can leave this doomed world and enter a strange place to continue your life.

It's not a perfect paradise.

Just like here, that world has also suffered from the Black Death, and the situation there is more serious than yours, but this is the most appropriate solution that can be found at present.

Last night, I had a discussion with Ms. Colipso.

Her warning to the towns of other survivors was also due to my instruction. This is not to shake your majesty, my pirate kings, this is just an emergency strategy to save more people. "

"I do not believe!"

As soon as Mason finished speaking, a gentleman with a blond wig stood up excitedly, waved his hands and shouted. His ability to resist under the pressure of the golden apple proved that he was a determined man.

He shouted under the pressure of his soul:

"We clearly have the magic medicine, and we have reached an agreement with Poseidon! We can expel the ghouls and take back our hometown! Everything is obviously going in the right direction.

His Majesty the King has also issued a decree to retake the mainland.

It shouldn't be like this!

wizard!

How dare you confuse the public with your lies at this time! You should be burned at the stake! "

The old gentleman's scream obviously represented the thoughts of many people in the hall, but the power of the golden apple was constantly being released, and Mason was here to announce the decision rather than discuss the matter with them.

Under his cold gaze, the entire hall fell silent again after a few seconds, and he said:

"I'm certainly not forcing everyone to leave, and if you think I'm joking, you're free to do so. But if you want to survive, you know where to take your family.

I've said all I need to say. "

After saying that, Mason picked up the hourglass and left the hall amidst the noisy crying behind him, regardless of the attempts of his "old friends" to stop him.

He also wanted to go to the old spider's world to observe how Quint protected the vassal world from the impact disaster. He didn't have much time to waste arguing here.

However, when Mason, Barbara, and Erbong left, Barbosa, with a gloomy look on his face, limped and followed.

This old pirate doesn't talk nonsense either.

He took out a key from his arms and put it into Mason's hand, and whispered:

"In the treasure house in my captain's cabin, the trident is placed there. Go and get it yourself! Don't disturb other people. And I have a request. There is another thing in my captain's cabin that you must bring with you. Walk.

Regardless of whether what you just said is true or false, I hope you complete this transaction. "

"Barbossa, everything I said is true."

Mason looked at the treasure house key in his hand and said:

"If you can give me this thing, it means that you believe it yourself. Leave as soon as possible. There is no point in staying here."

"But I'm a pirate."

Barbossa grinned and showed his big gold teeth.

The greasy big pirate snorted, held his sword and said:

"Rude guys like us will never compromise with our damn fate. Even if there is an end, I have to see it with my own eyes to convince myself to give up everything I have now.

Maybe your prediction was wrong?

Maybe I can really build a kingdom of my own and own all the wealth? I am different from Jack, the coward. I will not give up and leave before the game is over.

Mason, you may not think so, but I really regard you as a friend.

Please protect the most precious treasure of my life.

If you lose it, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost! "

After saying that, the old pirate snorted, turned around and walked towards his group of friends surrounded by a group of guards.

Mason did not waste time. He immediately rushed to the dock with Barbara and Ertong and boarded the Queen Anne's Revenge, and opened the captain's room with Barbosa's key.

While seeing the treasure house where the Trident of Poseidon was stored, he also saw the young girl standing on a chair and observing the sky through a complex huge telescope.

She was so serious that she didn't even notice the three people behind her walking into the cabin.

"She is"

Barbara asked in a low voice, Mason nodded, gestured to Ertong and said:

"No time to explain, knock her out, take her away! "

The second barrel came forward without mercy, cut the girl's neck with a palm, picked her up and put her in Barbara's arms, and picked up her dropped notebook and put it beside her.

And Mason had already opened the big pirate's treasure chest with the key. In the long box was a thing that was quite weird in every aspect.

It was said to be the Trident of Poseidon.

But it was more like a "work of art" twisted and grown by some weird coral. It did not have any characteristics of a weapon, just like a dead tree in the sea.

The three branches on the top were not even symmetrical, and the whole thing looked very shabby.

The second barrel, who was quite knowledgeable about cold weapons, came over to take a look and shook his head, saying:

"It is not a weapon for combat at all. You don't even need to try it to know that the center of gravity and balance are a mess, and the sturdiness is also questionable. I suspect that the pirates may have got a fake. "

"No, it's real. "

Mason stretched out his hand and whispered:

"Although many people have rumored that this trident originated from the era of the gods, in fact, the power level of this world is not enough to give birth to a powerful sea god like Poseidon.

Colepso has represented the top of the power of this world. You have also seen that she is actually just a top-tier super villain. In terms of appearance, she is probably not as good as Zhou Keer.

Moreover, this thing is not used for fighting.

This is obviously a "staff." ”

He touched the unremarkable "trident" in front of him, and the information label quickly popped up:

"It seems that I guessed right."

Mason picked up the ugly trident in the box. He signaled Ertong to raise his left hand and touch the trident to the ghost claw tattoo on his arm.

Ertong frowned and said:

"I don't feel anything."

"Nonsense, I haven't started yet. "

Mason took a deep breath and used the technique of manipulating magic fire to mobilize the weak magic power and inject it into the trident.

The next moment, in the sound of rolling waves, the ghost claw tattoo on Ertong's left arm quickly lit up and "degenerated" back to its original state little by little under the astonished gaze of him and Barbara.

"It works, but it is not enough to remove this soul curse. It seems that the divine power is too weak. "

Mason regretfully pointed the trident to the ground, stroking his chin and said:

"I probably know why the Star Castle is so concerned about the divinity of Kolypso. It has nothing to do with how much, but we can't let any trace of divine power flow to the opponent.

The hunters may also be secretly trying to use this power that does not belong to mortals to escape the manipulation of the devil. Sure enough, Zha Kang's previous conjecture was correct.

The curse bestowed by the godhead can only be fought against by divine power at the symbolic level. "

As he spoke, Mason threw the trident to Ertong with little interest, saying:

"Give it to John and say it's his salary allowance for the next six months. If he dares to say I'm stingy again, kick his balls for me."

The three of them walked out of the cabin with Barbossa's unconscious daughter. They were going their separate ways to seize the time to prepare for the next battle.

But at the moment of getting off the ship, Mason and the other two looked up at the same time as if they had sensed something.

They felt a powerful force suddenly appear in this world as if it had torn through some barriers.

Following the gazes of the three people, what came into view was another reflection on the sky, like a glimmer in the gap between the interlaced curtains, and a glimpse of another world slowly emerging from the abyss of the stars.

The rising planets between reality and illusion have occupied the sky, just like the reflection in the mirror, and it is like the cruel curtain finally opened.

They are attracting each other and approaching each other little by little.

Just like the love between lovers, they are inseparable until the last moment of passion collision, and the two worlds will fall apart in an instant.

"Oh my God!"

Barbara exclaimed, and Mason clenched his fists. He subconsciously looked at the hourglass in his hand, and the last drop of gravel was falling into the sand below at this time.

The end of the impact is coming!

It finally appeared in front of Mason, just as all imaginations, unstoppable.
