Chapter 222 Eat you——(please subscribe)
Ten days later, Cordo Sea, near the reef area.
"First Mate, are you sure this is the direction?"
Ronan looked ahead with a cold sweat on his face, where thick clouds shrouded the place, countless lightnings were looming, and there were rumbling thunders carried by the fierce sea wind.
He already regretted in his heart that he should have followed the sexy, beautiful, noble, dignified and passionate... Queen's first mate's course advice.
Although this direction will shorten the distance to Alexei Island, and although it follows the sea breeze, it can make the Leonard faster... but it will have to pass through a sea area full of rocks...
In fact, the situation in front of him was worse than he expected.
Stormy weather also occurred in the already dangerous sea area, which not only reduced visibility, but also caused strong winds, lightning, and rough waves, which greatly increased the risk of crossing.
"Oh? Are you questioning me?" Claire's eyes looked at the storm, bright and clear, and more revealing of excitement. Without even waiting for Ronan to speak, she shook her fist and pointed at the sea area and shouted : "Conquer it!"
Conquer, conquer...
The corner of Ronan's mouth twitched unconsciously. Even though there was a fully functional five-masted sailboat under him, with the ability to sail across the Cordo Sea, it didn't mean that he was willing to be really reckless when he could avoid the detour. Choose to cross stormy seas.
He turned to look at the other pirates on the deck, and his eyes fell on a few experienced old pirates, hoping that they would give some more reasonable suggestions.
"Um, second mate, do you think it's possible? Well, the conquest the first mate is talking about is circumventing that storm?" Helvin Hayes, the boatswain who had just taken up the post, looked at the violent wind and waves outside with a pale face. He swallowed and said.
Ronan gave him an approving look, good brother, you understand me!
"First mate, I understand your order. Now turn left to avoid the storm."
"Um?"
Claire glanced at him, smoothed her forehead hair that was blown by the strong wind, and said slowly: "You can try and see if I can break your legs~"
"Haha, haha, first mate, I suddenly remembered that the captain seemed to have said that he would come out later to see the results of our training..."
As a last resort, Ronan had no choice but to mention Wayne's name. After being together for so long, he still knew that the only person who could suppress this beautiful first mate was the rarely seen captain.
only……
"He's coming out?"
Claire's eyes lit up, and a charming smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "Triangle Eyes, why didn't you tell me earlier. In this case, I'll leave this place to your command..."
She had just turned around to replace the puppet and return to the theater space. She paused for a moment, looked at Ronan who had not had time to breathe, and continued: "You won't lie to me, will you?"
"How could it be possible? It's impossible. Absolutely not." Ronan denied it three times very simply. Even if he was talking nonsense, he could never admit it at this time.
As long as he bypasses that dangerous sea area, it doesn't matter whether he is beaten to death or not... Captain, help me...
"It's best this way, otherwise..."
Claire stretched out her white fingers and rowed toward the sea at will. I saw a black light streaking past, like a sharp arrow piercing into the violent sea water.
boom!
After a brief pause for a few seconds, the sea exploded violently, and dozens of deep-sea aberrations huddled under the sea were lifted into the air by the impact.
Their scarlet eyes were full of madness and cruelty... they were confused and confused, "Ho-ho?"
"Puppetry-Manipulation."
Immediately afterwards, black silk threads shot out from the long hair on the back of Claire's head, wrapping around the bodies of the aberrations, and they became quiet in the blink of an eye.
Seeing such a scene, Ronan and a group of pirates were also quiet.
The Queen's first mate...so strong...
"You'll be like this!"
Saying that, Claire snapped her fingers.
Snapped.
Those tiny, tangled black lines straightened instantly, and under the desperate eyes of the deep-sea aberrations, they were cut into countless fine pieces of meat, swept by the strong wind and fell into the sea, attracting countless fish to bite and devour them madly.
After doing this, Claire looked at the dumbfounded pirates, nodded with satisfaction, turned around, walked to the bottom of the cabin, and left the puppet body through the guidance of her origin.
"call……"
Seeing her leaving, Ronan let out a sigh of relief, and the Queen finally returned.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked at the pirates around him and the approaching storm, and shouted: "Damn it, be prepared and avoid the storm!"
Boatswain Helvin: "Yes, yes, hurry up and clear the wreckage on the deck."
He has been in the Zihua family for so many years, and he has never seen a first mate as reckless and adventurous as Claire. It is really challenging.
"Bosun, are you ready to activate the magic circle?" A pirate stood behind the bow of the ship, pulling on the side of the ship to prevent it from being thrown away by the wind and waves.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and turn it on. Didn't you see that the storm is coming? And so are those aberrations. Damn it, they are coming..."
Not to mention that the pirates were in a hurry, Claire, who returned to the theater space, stood up from the comfortable lounge chair and stretched lazily, causing the two clock dials to become larger.
She glanced at the guards who were training and said, "Vianne, it's time for a battle. The winner will have an extra meal in the evening, and the loser... will have extra training!"
"Yes, Your Lady Queen!"
Wei An took off her slightly heavy leather armor and only wore a short inner jacket. Her originally long dark green hair was cut much shorter, and her silver-gray eyes were pure and gentle, but also a little more determined.
After more than ten days of training, she looked more calm and capable than before, but the aristocratic temperament she had cultivated since childhood not only did not diminish, but instead increased a bit of heroism.
In fact, not only her, but also the hundreds of guards lined up in front of her had also completed their transformation.
Except for Haisha, who was originally a transcendent, those guards became more enchanting and their skin became much more delicate after using the secret method of the Eternal Life Society to complete the transformation from ordinary people to transcendent.
The biggest change is their temperament. After possessing extraordinary strength, they are more confident. They are no longer the weak women who allowed themselves to be bullied by pirates before.
After watching a few battles, Claire curled her lips and left.
Although the strength of these guards has improved a lot, they generally don't even have captain-level battles between extraordinary people, which really doesn't interest her much.
But she knew that it would take a long time and wait for these guards to reach the strength of the women in her memory.
Squeak.
Claire walked out of the training area, looked at the three "women" who were still studying quietly on the stage, adjusted her breathing and walked over with her chest raised.
"...Lilith." Like a teacher checking students' memorization of homework, Miss Zombie read out a Gonzalez word in a stiff tone with an expressionless face.
The white-haired girl stared at the parchment with empty eyes. She held a quill in her little hand and spelled out two Aldesian words on the paper, "Tina, disaster."
"correct!"
Pafula on the side clapped her palms and praised: "Tina, you have finished learning the content of "Gonzales Language (Proficiency)", and then you can start "Gonzales Language (Proficiency)" of learning.”
"If Wei En knew your progress, I believe he would be surprised by your talent in this area. You should know that most linguist professors in city-state colleges can only master the proficient level of Gonzales."
"Tina, genius." A faint smile appeared on the white-haired girl's indifferent face.
genius?
Claire walked to the side, pulled out a chair and sat down, "Tina's progress is indeed very fast, where are you two?"
During this period of time, she also found that Xiao Baimao's strength was very inconsistent with her appearance, and that she was very strangely powerful.
Not to mention the scary doll that was often tossed around by Little White Hair, Pafula, who couldn't even be harmed by Little White Hair, could actually be pressed to the ground and rubbed by Little White Hair.
He is simply too strong to be human...
Sharapova glanced at Claire with pale eyes and turned her head sharply, as if she didn't want to talk to the Queen's first mate.
Do these people really want her to become an undead scholar? She is just a poor transformed zombie...
Pafula was silent for a few seconds, then stood up gently and walked to the side, took out the ingredients that had been prepared, put on her apron and pretended that nothing happened, and asked: "How about eating sashimi tonight? Well, there is also Wei Well, you just taught me how to fry potato chips, they taste very good."
She is just an ordinary devout believer in the Great Dawn, and does not need to be a scholar with rich knowledge...
Well, she had to admit that she was only averagely talented when it came to Gonzalez.
Even if she memorizes those words, her application is still inferior to Tina. At least now it is impossible for her to translate a volume of era relics.
However, in her impression, it seems that there are not many Gonzales scholars who are more proficient in the Church of Dawn?
Perhaps, the followers of the Great Dawn are cursed by the strange and complex Gonzales language...
Well, that must be the case!
"Tina, potato chips!" The white-haired girl put down her quill and walked up to her in a few steps, staring at the iron pot that was still heating.
Besides studying, her favorite thing is potato chips. It would be better if Wayne made them for her.
The clown doll being carried by Tina had two buttons and its eyes flickered a few times. He seemed to hear the familiar word, potato chips?
Hee hee hee... want to eat!
Even if you are suppressed by madness in a world of disaster, you must eat it, it tastes good!
Claire: "..."
It seems like her question just now was a bit too much?
"Well, Wei En, are you coming out later?"
"He just came out and said that the subject experiment has reached a critical period. He asked us not to disturb him." Pafula replied while peeling the potatoes.
"Um??"
Ever come out?
Click.
Claire's face darkened, and she squeezed out two words between her teeth: "Ronan!"
Triangle Eyes dared to lie to her. Next time she goes out, she must hang him on the observation tower for a few days!
…
…
At this time, in Wei En's studio, which is only separated from the stage by a wall.
A few days have passed, and the entire studio has changed a lot.
In addition to the previously purchased workbench, drilling machine, and equipment provided by Ghost, several large-scale equipment and equipment were added.
Such as crystal balls used to detect the body data of undead creatures, forging furnaces used to smelt alloys, and a large isolation circle to prevent pollution.
At this time, Wayne was wearing a pair of weird glasses, holding a pen and paper in his hand, and was observing the zombie with his hands and feet bound on the restraint table in front of him.
In his field of vision, the zombie with only captain-level strength had a layer of gray mist on its body. The mist enveloped its whole body and spread from the center of its eyebrows to all parts of its body like waves as its original core rippled.
But its arms were flashing with a strange red light, as if they were two individuals pieced together with the zombie's body.
In fact, this was the case. Before starting the experiment, Wei En installed the mechanical arm and activated the runes that could penetrate directly to its original core.
Buzz buzz...
As the gray fog continued to erode the mechanical arm, he could see the red light and gray fog tugging at each other. The gray fog covered the mechanical arm bit by bit, compressing the coverage of the red light.
Seeing this, Wei En's face lit up with joy.
You can go in!
He quickly wrote a few lines on the parchment, and you could see the content on it.
"The 130th fusion experiment, target: zombie, level: captain level, modified part: arm, production materials used: ghost stone, Thrall metal, iron and alloy of freezing contaminants."
"Rune: Soul Fusion Rune, Earth Spirit Rune Array..."
"Record: After activating the rune array and the soul-melting rune, the original core and the mechanical arm are connected smoothly, but the transformation into the body process is slow... huh?"
Before Wei En could wait for the gray mist to corrode the entire robotic arm, he saw the rune array on it begin to collapse, and then the metal alloy on the arm deformed, affecting the soul-melting runes...
Sigh...
With a harsh sound, the mechanical arm was twisted into a twist under the squeeze of the gray mist and the power of the rune array, and then the layer of red light began to flash violently.
"Fuck, it's going to explode again!"
boom!
There was a booming sound, and the mechanical arm exploded violently. Small metal fragments scattered around, and at the same time, the sleeping zombie came to life.
But its body, which was still intact before, had been blown to pieces by the sudden explosion. Not only half of its body disappeared, but also half of its head.
"Ho--let me go, I'll eat you--"
Wayne waved his hand to disperse the surrounding debris and flesh, then threw the quill out of his hand.
Bah!
The zombie's struggling movements stopped, and its head suddenly exploded, and a large amount of red and white filth stained the restraint table.
"Tsk, ghost."
Wei En frowned and asked the ghost to use the soul-eating spell to clean up the surrounding area.
[You use the Devouring Soul Spell to devour undead creatures - zombies, and your origin will be improved. Evaluation: Bullying the weak zombies, you really deserve it. Special reward: Origin +0.001. 】
Bully?
Wayne curled his lips, put the parchment on the workbench, and sighed slightly: "Failed again."
Ten days have passed, no, eight days have passed since the fusion experiment began. The progress of the experiment cannot be said to be nonexistent, but it is very slow.
In the past two days, he had completed the selection of materials, made alloys that met the basic requirements, and dissected dozens of zombie creatures to understand their body structures... which went fairly smoothly.
But since then, fusion experiments have begun...
Facts have proved that pure alloy materials can be fused with the immortal body of undead creatures, but it can only be controlled simply, just like Sharapova, who can move and fight.
But if you want to strengthen the mechanical arm like other zombies when you advance, it will be difficult.
After the previous twenty failed experiments, Wei En added runes. This may be the only way to solve this problem.
Therefore, there were the soul-melting runes and the earth spirit array.
The soul-melting rune is a very unpopular rune. Its only function is to implant objects into the soul. According to previous rune knowledge records, soul-melting runes were widely used in the transformation of synthetic beasts in the third era, and were a weapon in the Blood Spirit School's wars.
The Earth Spirit Array is to enhance the activity of the mechanical arm and the zombie's undead body, and forcibly fuse two different objects together.
But the result...
Wei En scratched his head and muttered a few words: "If you fail once, you will lose 80 gold pounds... This is just a captain-level zombie. If you want to switch to a minister-level and director-level zombie, the cost will increase several times."
In fact, the cost of the experiment is not only the zombie creatures, but also the mechanical arms - all the materials combined, the production cost of each one is 60 gold pounds.
These days, he alone has spent more than 10,000 gold pounds, not counting the consumption of other people's experiments at the institute...
Wayne sat on the chair, picked up the parchment again, and summarized the problems encountered in the experiment just now, preparing to discuss the problems of the entire experiment with the institute later, as well as ways to improve them.
This was almost the most time-consuming thing he had done in the past ten days.
The other thing is to let Mr. Clown summon a ruling-level abyss creature every day for him to fight.
In this way, not only can he accumulate survival points and basic attributes, but after winning the gladiatorial battle, he can also let several of the ghost's sub-bodies enjoy a feast of abyssal creatures, adding a few points of original power to him.
However, this kind of fighting does not improve his strength very quickly. He can only get about 2,500 survival points, 20 basic attribute points and 5 essence points in a day.
Although he proposed to Mr. Clown to replace him with some Hand of the Kingdom-level abyss creatures, he was rejected every time...
In the words of Mr. Leonard the Clown - one ruling-level abyssal creature per day is the limit of what he can summon. The damn Lord of the Abyss has placed restrictions on him, prohibiting any abyssal creature beyond this level from responding to him. the call.
In addition to researching topics and fighting with abyssal creatures, Wei En spent the rest of his time absorbing a huge amount of rune and potion knowledge in his mind. On average, he could level up five runes and learn how to make two potions every day.
This was the limit of what he could bear by compressing his sleep time to two hours. The main reason was that the potion making process was too cumbersome and took up a lot of time.
It is worth mentioning that during this period, it has become his habit to change the original value every one and a half hours, but every night, the location of the taboo object 0-38 Clock of Truth will be displayed on the panel. Appear. I don’t know if the unknown existence only has time at night, or if he happened to change his origin during the day to offset the positioning guidance.
No matter what the situation was, Wei En knew that those people still hadn't given up in the past few days.
Maybe one day, a group of people will suddenly appear and force him to reveal the flaws of the spell runes, or they may want to make him pay the price...
Buzz buzz...
At this time, the black communicator sounded.
Teresa and the others? Hope it will be good news...
After Wayne got through, a scene from the research institute appeared on the screen, "How is your progress?"
But it seems like this is nonsense...
The moment the picture appeared, he noticed that Teresa and the others had their heads lowered, as if they had been hit by something, and there was not much light in their eyes. Even the deformed wizard Adolphe was like this.
"Today's experiments failed. I'm sorry, Director..." Teresa bit her lip and said sadly.
"I also failed here. Let's talk about the specific problems and try to do two more experiments today."
"Good point. According to the special materials improved yesterday, after activating the Earth Spirit Array, and under the action of the soul-melting runes, it can be seen that the original core of the zombie has some effect, but it failed in the end."
Same problem?
Wayne looked at the next one thoughtfully, "Where's Ossel?"
"Director, the problem I encountered here is somewhat different. The origin of the zombie did not enter the mechanical arm well. Although it did not cause an explosion,..."
"So it's a connection issue?"
"Sorry, I accidentally let the robotic arm fall off..." Osel lowered his head, looking very embarrassed.
"Next."
"I have made a new discovery here." Krista took a step forward, holding the parchment and said: "I tried to delay the activation time of the Earth Spirit Array. To be precise, it was after the Soul Fusion Rune Please wait fifteen seconds after taking effect before activating the magic circle."
"Oh?" Wei En raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the change?"
"I found that this could increase the degree of integration between the robotic arm and the undead origin. After the magic circle took effect, the power of the origin core could almost occupy the entire robotic arm, but in the end it failed."
"It's a good discovery..."
Wei En thought for a few seconds and understood that there was a difference between doing this and activating them together. Increasing the effective time of the soul-melting rune would increase the degree of soulization of the mechanical arm, making it easier to receive the original power.
The Earth Spirit Array is an external function, mainly to make the mechanical arm more suitable for the immortal body.
So, from the inside out?
It is consistent with the order of power explosion.
A smile appeared on Krista's face, "I'm going to delay the activation time of the magic circle next time."
"Others can make good records and try this direction..."
After everyone had finished reporting, Wei En looked at the several items recorded on the screen and said: "Except for the delay time just mentioned, the material strength of the robotic arm is still not strong enough, and it can only withstand ministerial-level attacks at best..."
"Adolph, you don't need to participate in the next fusion experiment. You can focus on alloy research. The direction is to increase the strength of the alloy as much as possible while retaining the existing characteristics."
"clear."
"Theresa, go apply for another batch of materials, and there will be fifty more captain-level zombies..."
"Good director."
"Others will continue as usual, but it's best not to use the same research direction. Changes like Krista's are very useful for reference..."
After arranging the direction of the next experiment, Wei En looked at the people on the illusory screen and chuckled: "Tell me about the school. Are there any new discoveries about the flaws of the spell runes recently?"
"The number has increased. Currently, more than 600 runes have been perfected, but..." Teresa hesitated for a moment and said with a strange expression: "It is said that the faceless wizard is basically not a ghost. .”
"Um?"
Wei En blinked, what do you mean, he's not from the Ghost School, where is he from?
"I also told me this when I went to Dean Josue before. He said that he got the exact information from the occult school. The faceless wizard belongs to their school, and he also announced the third key flaw. .”
Ah this...
He just signed an equal contract, and now he becomes theirs?
"What else?" Wei En continued to ask calmly.
It was also during this time that he was busy improving his abilities and research on topics.
Apart from exchanging letters with Wizard Nana every day, he almost never took the initiative to inquire about the progress of the occult school regarding the defects in spell runes.
However, the Nana wizard would tell him some progress every day, such as the defects of twelve spell runes were corrected today, and the strength of several elemental wizards who were proficient in these spells increased by 40%.
But she never said that the Occult School would take the initiative to recognize his identity as a wizard...
"Also this morning, people from the Shadow School contacted the Ice Castle and said that wizards would be arranged to come for exchanges on spell research in the near future."
"Project research exchange? Is it related to the research center?"
Wei En raised his eyebrows. It was somewhat similar to the so-called academic exchanges he had heard in his previous life, but the wizards who came to this world would not sit down and have a meeting to drink tea and discuss like that...
"The dean means that we may need to participate." Teresa looked at Wayne's face and saw that there was nothing unusual, then continued: "I heard that there will be a few competitions during the period."
"There's still a game?"
"That's it... The content of the exchange that has been confirmed now includes the transformation and improvement of spell runes, which are divided into two levels: wizard and great wizard. Then there is the gladiatorial battle. The winning wizard can get a lot of rewards. I heard that the reward for the first place is A forbidden object provided by the School of Shadows.”
"..."
Isn't this a competition between schools of thought?
However, taking a forbidden item as a reward... is quite a gesture.
Shadow School... Is there any profound meaning in finding the ghost at this time?
Wei En secretly made a note of this matter, preparing to ask the Spiritual Esoteric School if they knew about it later, and then nodded: "If you want to participate, you can try, but try not to affect the research of the topic."
"We don't want to focus on the work of the institute!"
"Just relax appropriately."
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Wei En finally reminded: "The next meeting will be at eight o'clock. Everyone should try to complete the experiment again."
"yes!"
Wayne turned off the communication device and let out a sigh of relief. Four hours was enough time to conduct another experiment.
And with Krista's discovery, he can also have new ideas.
Increasing the activation time interval between the Soul Fusion Rune and the Earth Spirit Array can further enhance the integration of zombies and robotic arms, but the disadvantage is equally obvious, that is, the Earth Spirit Array takes effect too slowly.
If the effect of the soulmelting rune could be shortened...
"There is a way."
The speed of soul fusion depends on both the mechanical arm and the original core, but in fact the effective speed of the mechanical arm is almost constant, so what can be changed is the integration speed of the original core...
The way Wei En came up with was to use magic potions to enhance the quality of the source without increasing the core strength of the source.
It happened that the potion formula he had just learned had this effect, even though it only temporarily increased the original quality...
"enough!"
As soon as he thought of it, Wei En began to prepare the materials according to the potion formula, hoping that this experiment would be successful...
Damn it, 130 experiments have been done, and if I’m stuck here again, I won’t have enough gold pounds to spend...
…
…
"Where's Helvin? Hurry and get people to the stern of the ship. There's a big guy there. If he continues to stay on the ship, the speed of the ship won't be increased!"
"Damn it, everyone, pay attention, there's a huge wave coming from the front left!"
"..."
While controlling the rudder of the ship, Ronan anxiously directed the pirates on the ship to deal with crises that may arise at any time.
Although he had just used Wayne's name to stop Claire's plan to cross the storm at sea, the Leonard was already on the edge of the storm at that time, so they did not escape the scope of the storm.
What's worse is that as the center of the storm moves, their courses actually partially overlap.
This made the second mate with triangular eyes want to rush into the bottom of the ship, pull up the queen's first mate and beat her up.
"Pay attention, advance to the cabin, and use the rune circle to avoid the huge waves. As long as we travel another ten kilometers, we can get out of the storm range!"
"Second officer, Radky was swept away by the waves!"
"Quiet! Don't worry about those unlucky people for now, and hurry into the cabin..."
Ronan was sweating profusely, looking at the hundreds of meters high wave that was getting closer and closer. He never believed in the righteous god, and in his heart he prayed to the Storm Lady, the Lord of the Dawn, the earth... damn, no matter it was What bastard, please protect them from being overturned by the huge waves.
boom!
The huge waves carried fierce power and bombarded the hull of the five-masted sailboat, instantly breaking through the defense formed by the rune array that could withstand the attack of the director-level transcendent.
At the same time, the bow of the Leonard, engraved with the Lord of the Dawn, broke through the huge waves like a sharp sword and got in.
Oops!
Ronan knew something was wrong. Without the protection of the magic circle, this ship...
Although he was a little worried, all he could do now was pray that the Church of Dawn did not cut corners when making this ship.
He gritted his teeth and controlled the rudder, "Get through it!!"
Sweeping by the huge waves, three of the four remaining masts on the ship were instantly gone, leaving only the main mast in the middle still standing.
The next second, the entire Leonard passed through huge waves and hit the rough sea. The violent vibration overturned the pirates in the cabin.
"Damn it..."
"You must go there..."
In the cockpit, Ronan grasped the rudder tightly with both hands. Even though his body was sent flying sideways by the shock, his two mechanical arms still held on tightly.
"Huh, huhu... it's passed..."
But now is not the time to rejoice. Just because they escaped the attack of a huge wave does not mean that they are out of the scope of the storm.
After the ship's hull became slightly stable, Ronan quickly controlled the rudder and shouted towards the cabin behind him: "Helvin, hurry up and get someone to clear the deck and see if the magic circle can be activated again!"
"Second mate, the boatswain is injured!"
"Then, go ahead, there's no time to talk nonsense-"
Just after being swept away by the storm, the dizzy pirates were busy. Ronan looked ahead with a serious face, wondering how long it would take to get through the storm. His triangular eyes suddenly widened.
So, what is that? !
