Chapter 55: Fishing for the Devil
In a dark alley.
Li Feng picked up the three mithril bullets that had just been fired from the ground.
Although they cannot be reused, the bullets are too expensive.
Even if they have already used up their own extraordinary power when fired.
But mithril itself is also a valuable precious metal and cannot be wasted.
After putting away the bloody bullets, Li Feng suddenly thought of something.
He had been so busy these days that he had forgotten about fishing.
He should also go fishing for flint and mithril bullets.
But now, he has more important objects to fish for.
Looking at the "first mate" who exuded a suffocating smell, Li Feng finally understood why he had the perfume used by girls.
That was just a cover-up.
In the morning, the "first mate" did not dare to approach the goddess' church, but only waited for him in the distance, which was also a clue that he had become a demon.
Li Feng closed his eyes, feeling mixed emotions.
The first mate was a good person, but he had lost his son and wife, and had been through a rough life for half his life, and now this was the ending again.
The clues that showed abnormality had actually appeared in front of him a long time ago.
He also noticed it, but he ignored it carelessly.
Li Feng shook his head to dispel the messy emotions in his heart.
Then he put his hand on the body of the "first mate".
[You got the fragments of the Demon Book]
[You got a bottle of demon blood]
[You got a gray mouse skin]
[You got a gray mouse tail]
Li Feng walked to the wall and threw away the mouse skin and tail.
Then he hesitated, whether he should first see what the fragments of the Demon Book and the demon blood were, or should he walk out of the alley to ask for help and do what a normal person should do.
However, at this moment, hurried footsteps suddenly came from the entrance of the alley.
The next moment, the only light source shining into the alley was blocked.
Li Feng looked up and saw that it was a large group of people who appeared at the entrance of the alley together.
Among them were Bishop Frey, Captain John, Priest Ralph, and many crew members of the Jellyfish he knew.
The leader was a tall man he had never seen before.
They hurried over, but were all stunned at the entrance of the alley.
Such a big scene also made Li Feng slightly stunned.
Seeing them, Li Feng said nothing, because everything on the scene was the best explanation.
The silence lasted only a few seconds.
After a while, the strange man and Bishop Frey entered the alley first.
They thought Li Feng was frightened and leaned against the wall, and then asked Li Feng about his well-being.
Of course, Li Feng would not say that he was here to throw rat skins and rat tails. He went with the flow and showed that he was still scared.
During the conversation.
Li Feng learned that the strange man was nicknamed Red Falcon and was one of the leaders of the Earth Ring on Storm Island.
Then he saw Red Falcon release a golden dandelion.
After that, many extraordinary people came here. They came to collect the body for the first mate.
Although everyone was shocked and happy that Li Feng killed the demon.
Bishop Frey was even scared to the point of wiping his wet eyes.
But the first mate died, and the captain, crew members, and bishop present were all sad for him.
They were also worried that the devil would bring disaster to the world again.
The hot summer sun scorched the earth, and the waves washed the reefs again and again, repeating the scene that had not changed for thousands of years.
The funeral of the first mate was held two days later.
The crew of the Jellyfish, representatives of the shipping company, and the first mate's cousin and his family came to attend the funeral.
Bishop Frey, as the bishop of the Purple Gold Flower Church and a long-time friend of the first mate, also came to see him off.
Of course, Li Feng also came.
Before coming, the bishop had advised that if seeing the first mate again would remind him of the horrific scene at that time, it would be better not to go.
But Li Feng still insisted on coming. He felt that no matter what, he should come to see the first mate off for the last time.
Because the first mate's body had been descended by the devil, he could only be buried in the special cemetery set up by the Ring of Earth.
I don't know what means the person in charge of the burial in the Ring of Earth used, but the rats on the first mate's shoulders have been removed.
And the corresponding positions were also filled.
The first mate now has a peaceful face, as if he is asleep.
There is no trace of the madness and ferocity at that time.
Li Feng placed the flowers in his hand in front of the first mate's tombstone.
He recalled that at the last moment, the first mate had asked him to run and leave, and he felt bad again.
The morning wind blew through the cemetery, bringing bursts of dew.
Just as Li Feng hoped a few days ago, he met the first mate's cousin through the first mate.
Although the wish was fulfilled, this process was definitely not what Li Feng wanted.
"My cousin has lived a miserable life..."
The first mate's cousin, who is also the captain of a hunting ship, said to Li Feng with a lamenting expression after seeing him.
"I heard from John that you want to get on the hunting ship. Of course, I welcome you if you are willing to come, but..."
The first mate's cousin paused and continued:
"After the devil came ashore, the governor has closed the port, and now no ship can go out to sea."
Li Feng also heard about this matter.
In the Endless Sea, anything related to demons is extremely serious.
The Governor of Storm Island has now closed the port of Windbreak City, prohibiting any shipping company or private ship from going out to sea.
"If this matter can be over one day, if you still want to come, give me a call, anytime."
The first mate's cousin continued to say to Li Feng, then he glanced at the representative of the shipping company and lowered his voice:
"You have to be careful of that guy, you killed... the devil, the boss of the shipping company values your ability very much, they plan to invite you to other ports of hunting ships, but believe me, I have been dealing with extraordinary creatures at sea for half my life, and it is definitely not a good idea to go out to sea at this time."
This really reminded Li Feng, he nodded in understanding, and whispered back:
"Thank you."
The first mate's cousin pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled slightly, then shook his head.
Then he looked at his cousin's tombstone, and finally said to Li Feng:
"No, I should thank you, you let him rest in peace."
Then the first mate's cousin said goodbye to Li Feng and left the cemetery.
The morning mist dissipated, and the sun rose.
As the first mate's cousin said, after the funeral, the representative of the shipping company found Li Feng and invited him to work in the shipping company, offering him a generous reward.
But Li Feng declined.
The demons have begun to interfere with the human world, so why not go on shore and fuse the secret treasure by hunting demons.
On shore, there are extraordinary organizations such as the Ring of the Earth, and they will definitely deal with demons.
So Li Feng does not have to face danger directly.
And there is also the pool of the Purple Gold Flower Church, where Li Feng can recover quickly.
Every time a demon is killed, the fusion progress can be increased by 1%-10%.
Li Feng's current fusion progress is 3%, and he happens to have 97 mithril bullets.
Not surprisingly, Li Feng does not need to buy a large number of mithril bullets.
97 bullets are not just enough, but they will not be much worse.
With the demons coming to the door and not having to face them alone, Li Feng certainly will not choose to go out to sea again to hunt ordinary extraordinary creatures.
But the question now is how can I participate in the Earth Ring's action against the demons.
Li Feng walked out of the cemetery thinking about this question.
However, when he walked to the exit of the cemetery, he met Hong Kusanagi.
And the latter seemed to be waiting for him.
