Chapter 321 Arm
,!
Su Changxing and the other three came to the coast. The sky was clear and there was a warm and humid sea breeze blowing.
It is some distance from the port, and there are not many people walking around here. It is considered a suburb of the city, and it is also a cliff on the coast, where ships cannot dock.
Because of the death of the earl, no personnel or ships are allowed to enter or exit. We are waiting for an order from the king to see how to deal with this matter.
The death of a great nobleman is a big deal, and at least the murderer must be found to be able to explain it.
Sean stretched his head and looked down the cliff and asked, "Shall we go down from here? There are no people here. It is indeed a better place."
As he spoke, Jin was about to jump down, but Su Changxing grabbed him and said, "Wait a minute, the ship hasn't arrived yet."
Jin asked curiously: "I thought we were going to paddle away. Where did the boat come from?"
Su Changxing pointed forward: "It's already here."
The wind and waves suddenly became stronger, the sky darkened, white mist appeared on the sea, and then there was the shadow of a wooden warship.
Jin also saw this rotten warship that had transformed from the void at a glance, with green flames burning on it: "What is this?"
Su Changxing gestured: "I told you before, the Terror Ghost."
"It doesn't look very scary."
"..."
Captain William stood on the bow of the ship, emerging from the real dimension, looking at Su Changxing and shouting: "Sir, after knowing that you are coming, I will rush over as soon as possible."
William's state is completely different from before. From a distance, the entire ship is burning with green flames. There is only a pair of withered bones and a captain's hat. At the same time, you can also see his shadow as a human being.
Under the influence of the Terror Ghost, he is no longer an independent person, but a part of the Terror Ghost, the captain of the Terror Ghost.
The same is true for the crew on the ship. They have become part of the Terror Ghost. They will not grow old, sick or die over time, and it is difficult to leave the ship, as if they were cursed.
All of this is a choice, maybe a choice of fate, or maybe he is their own choice, and is bound to this ship in some way.
The terrifying ghost ship is not as simple as it appears. It is also an artifact, an existence on the same level as the Pocket Galaxy. I am afraid it is something left by a powerful existence.
I don’t know why there are so many artifacts in discount stores. Many of them seem to have a great background.
What was sold in the store now was an arm with blood on it. Even through the drawing, he could feel the horror of disaster.
[Ancient God’s Arm: One hundred billion points. The arm left behind by a certain ancient god after his death. Even after countless years, it still carries unimaginable power.
warn!
Once this object appears in the real dimension, it will cause some dead existences to be resurrected from the past time. 】
Su Changxing seriously suspected that this thing was sealed in the discount store. Somehow, he was able to redeem it with points due to some accident.
Of course, he would not think of exchanging this thing. It is obviously a trap. The ancient gods are probably similar to gods, ancient gods.
Too much time has passed, and the rules of the world are constantly changing. The gods of the past are probably completely different from the gods of today.
And even if he redeemed this thing, it would be of no use to him and he would never be able to eat it. The arm of the ancient god was probably not something edible. The end would probably be the same as if Count Mel ate the demon meat, and he would not gain any strength from it. , but was assimilated.
After boarding the ship, William seemed extremely excited: "Sir, I finally waited until you came back. After you left, this ship seemed to be dead and lifeless."
Jin looked at the various ghosts on the deck and fell into thought.
Su Changxing could also feel the changes in the entire ship. It became extremely active after he uploaded it. Whether it was the tattered sails or the decaying deck, they were welcoming him.
"What's the current situation in the empire? Kasemin has recaptured Wodan?" Su Changxing asked.
William nodded, and the spiritual fire on his body gradually disappeared, revealing his original human appearance: "Yes, under your arrangement, she successfully ascended the throne and became the new queen of the empire."
"My arrangement?" Su Changxing couldn't help but frowned. Although he provided some help, Kasemin had to rely on himself to regain the throne.
William nodded and said: "When we went to Wodan, we thought there would be a fierce battle, but we didn't expect that Duke Jindora surrendered in front of the King's Tower and was beheaded at noon the next day."
"The world always likes to judge others with the greatest evil, but Duke Jindora is definitely loyal to the royal family, otherwise he would not die so willingly."
The situation was different from what Su Changxing expected. It seemed that Duke Jindora and the original queen had a plan.
It's no wonder that the King's Tower was so easily breached by Duke Jindora that day, but what was the point of doing so.
On the contrary, the original queen is full of doubts. One of her corpses is still preserved in the Pocket Galaxy, one is buried in the King's Tower, and there is also a corpse in the ruins of the Ice Kingdom.
This is definitely not a coincidence. I am afraid that the Queen and "Liu Lola" are planning something.
Xiaobai, the ghost dog on the ship, was still very active. When he saw Su Changxing, he came over to him and looked very affectionate.
"Small dog!"
Jin touched Xiaobai's head with his hand and put the red-eyed rabbit on his head: "You can play by yourselves, but don't fight."
Before she finished speaking, the red-eyed rabbit, which was completely obedient in her hands, bit Xiao Bai on the head.
It also made Xiaobai scream in pain, take a few steps back, and growl at the red-eyed rabbit.
Su Changxing was stunned when he saw this scene. Xiaobai was a ghost dog. It would be difficult for ordinary creatures to recognize and harm him. It would be difficult to see it.
This red-eyed rabbit can easily bite it, and the bite is painful.
"..."
In the end, he could only lament that he would always find some unreasonable things in Jin, at least not in line with the common sense in the extraordinary field.
Soon, a rabbit and a dog were chasing each other on the boat. At first, the red-eyed rabbit was chasing Xiaobai, looking like he was going crazy. But as time went by, Xiaobai chased and bit the red-eyed rabbit.
Jin sat aside to watch the excitement and cheered: "Don't be afraid, bite it!"
William also had to lament that there was indeed a lot of life on the ship, "It doesn't matter if it moves, this lazy dog usually lies on the deck motionless."
The terrifying ghost ship has changed since Su Changxing boarded the ship. The size of the entire ship has quietly increased, the deck has been continuously extended, and the mast has also grown inadvertently.
All artifacts require a higher level of power to control, such as faith.
Connecting faith with the terrifying ghost ship, it was like waking up a sleeping giant. Green flames burned on the deck, gradually covering everything, and the ship moved faster and faster, as if it was flying on the sea. Accompanied by thick fog.
Just went to sea not long ago.
There were storms and waves on the sea again, the sea water carried by the strong wind was roaring, the sky was also covered with dark clouds, and there was lightning and thunder.
Jin looked at the sky: "That thing is here again."
"Aren't you still giving up?" Su Changxing showed a cold expression.
This is of course not an attack, but a provocation.
A ball made of thunder and lightning is hidden in the illusion, controlling the wind and waves on the sea to continuously impact the ship.
Su Changxing pulled out the revolver with his backhand and shot at the thunder ball. The bullet turned into a silver light and penetrated the real dimension and penetrated the thunder ball.
The wind and waves on the sea stopped instantly and returned to a calm state, with the sun shining down from above.
"Ran?"
Su Changxing raised his eyebrows, turned his faith into a domain that enveloped the sea in all directions, and grabbed the ball of thunder and lightning with one hand.
It was a lump of black electric eel, or at least it looked like an electric eel.
[Afterimage of Dagon: Armor Crown, the authority of the sea, with which it can control everything on the sea, but this is just a projection and can be maintained for a limited time. 】
Su Changxing could clearly feel that the man was nearby just now, but he still let him run away and stay. Leaving behind such a thing was a mysterious item, and it was also used to control the wind and waves on the sea.
The "electric eel" was caught in Su Changxing's hand and quickly lost its activity. The surface of its skin was petrified bit by bit, turning into a stone-like electric eel.
There are black lines on the surface, which makes the electric eel look strangely beautiful. But if you look closely, you can see that those black lines are composed of fine divine characters.
Jin saw something like this on Su Changxing's hand and asked, "What is this?"
Su Changxing said lightly: "Some kind of divine creation, but it's very rough."
Sean opened his eyes wide and stared at the petrified "electric eel" in Su Changxing's hand: "Is this really a creation of the gods?"
Su Changxing nodded and said affirmatively: "Of course, do you want to take a look?"
Sean laughed awkwardly, shook his head and said, "Forget it, this thing should be very dangerous."
He knew very well that mortals might be affected by things related to gods like this even if they come into close contact with them.
William held the rudder with one hand, his whole body burning with blazing green flames, and shouted: "Where are we going now?"
"The southern continent, the junction of the inland sea." Su Changxing said.
William replied: "I heard that there was a fierce fight between the pagans and the combined army of the church."
Suddenly, the speed of the terrifying ghost ship accelerated again, the scene on the sea became like a lake, the fog became thicker, and ripples appeared in the sky as if the ship was swimming in the water.
The Terror Ghost has entered an illusory side, using the faith condensed in the church as a beacon to guide the way.
This... is not a real ship in the first place, so it should not sail on the real sea.
Walking through the strange illusion, the ghost sailor on the plywood sings a song,
"When the ship sets sail,
around the ship's mast,
Singing seagulls,
Sail toward the distant sea.
The wind and waves are fierce,
The waves are rough,
Moving forward firmly, they will not stop the ship until the last person.
Roam on the sea, wander in the blue sea, be free and chase your dreams.
······
"
With such a sound, his thoughts couldn't help but wander out and look into the distance.
It might only be a moment, or it might be a long time.
The scene on the sea became clearly visible again. The color of the sea water was a little duller than before, dark blue, and the orange lights emitted by the distant port at night could be seen from a distance.
"Is that a corpse?"
William immediately noticed the things floating on the sea. They were corpses one after another. Their skin and flesh were soaked and swollen, and they were densely covered in the surrounding waters. The blood even dyed the sea water.
Su Changxing couldn't help but frowned: "I didn't expect the war here to be so tragic. I'm afraid they are all corpses cleaned up from the battlefield."
Through his faith, he was able to observe the scenes on the battlefield and estimate the current situation of the war. The foreign teachers had the upper hand before and forced the church's combined army to a corner of the southern continent, preparing to kill them all.
But from this point on, things started to go wrong.
Those church armies gained more power from the gods, and suddenly mastered some unimaginably powerful spells that were enough to turn the tide of the war.
Not long ago, on the battlefield near Muxi Lake, a priest of the church army used a strange spell to awaken the corpses on the battlefield, gathered tens of thousands of undead, and counterattacked the main army of the foreign religion.
Artis was also keen enough to order a retreat at the first opportunity. Although the losses were considerable, he was able to escape the pursuit of the undead army in time.
The undead army then disappeared on the battlefield without a trace.
Seeing this situation, Su Changxing naturally would not sit still and watch his followers lose this war, so he also sent more blessings.
As a result, the magnitude of the war between the two sides increased step by step.
At first, there were only a few werewolves mixed in the church's combined army, but later on, there were more and more werewolves, and even integrated werewolf troops appeared.
The fighting power of each werewolf is extremely exaggerated, and an entire army of werewolves can even capture a city.
As for the foreign teachers of the Church of All Living Beings, they are full of various blessings. With the superposition of various buffs, even an ordinary believer has the ability to fight against werewolves, and later they also used rune warriors.
These rune warriors are all borrowed from the Orthodox Church. Although the Orthodox Church and the outsiders have split, their relationship is not bad. After all, they serve the same god and are recognized by the god.
Therefore, such assistance is understandable, but from the perspective of outsiders, orthodox and foreign teachers are in an antagonistic relationship.
Immediately afterwards, Artis prepared to carry out another beheading plan to kill the newly established pope of the Epigenetic Religion.
He had done this kind of thing once before, causing the City of Heroes to almost be destroyed. That was when Foreign Teacher was established.
Everyone knows that diplomacy holds powerful power from the gods, and it is also the source of the nearly destruction of the City of Heroes, making the Epigenetic Cult fearful.
Deep destruction will become even deeper and more insane in the future.
Although the war between the two sides involved a corner of the southern continent, it affected all nearby cities.
Whether it is pagans or a combined army of churches, they will clean up the heretics in the city, using the most extreme and bloody methods.
Su Changxing knew that these churches were the means for the gods to stay in this country, so he allowed Atis to clean them up. He also knew that the gods would definitely not give up.
And indeed it is.
During the beheading operation the day before yesterday, Artis and hundreds of his entourage were killed by a huge palm that fell from the sky. It affected an entire neighborhood, and houses were destroyed and turned into ruins.
Su Changxing also felt the death of Artis, but his soul did not dissipate. Instead, it was active in the faith condensed in the church. With enough faith, he could be resurrected.
The dark blood boiled in the pool water of the hall, gradually forming a clear figure. The color changed, and human skin emerged.
"Ah~"
Artis crawled out of the bloody water, his body naked, no different from before. There was a scar on his neck, and his left arm was still broken.
He knelt on the ground with a fervent and pious expression on his face: "Thank you Lord."
With the Lord's protection, even death cannot sink him.
Su Changxing fell into a brief silence. It was not that simple to resurrect a person out of thin air, and it even violated the rules of the world.
Artis is very special. His body and soul are bound to his beliefs, or he is the embodiment of his beliefs. He is no longer a simple individual.
Someone moved their hands and feet without him noticing, and completed such an incredible operation.
It is difficult for him to do such a thing himself.
Who could it be?
The eight eyes on Su Changxing's face slowly opened, with different expressions, as if different people were thinking.
Sean could only half-cover his face and lower his head, pretending he didn't see anything, and leaned against the corner of the deck shivering.
