Chapter 366: Sea Beast Attacks the City, Dragon Turtle Overturns the Island

A tense atmosphere existed between Yeats and Gonzalez.

In front of the bounty list, everyone looked terrified, fearing that the two big guys on the list would accidentally hurt them in anger, so they all stepped back, leaving a circular open space for the two to confront each other.

Gonzalez was tall and thin, like a bamboo pole, with long hair neatly tied up at the back of his head. There were slight scars on his stern face. He looked at Yeats disdainfully and asked for confirmation:

"Did you really kill the water ghost?"

Ye Zhi said calmly: "Chosen by the Mist, Loki never lies."

"A sect that teaches fraud and deception actually claims that its followers never lie?"

Gonzalez said indifferently:

"That's a lie in itself!"

"Okay, I'm lying now." Ye Zhi shrugged. "Excuse me, is this true or false?"

This is the classic "liar paradox" proposed by Eubrides in ancient Greece. The specific content is, if someone says that he is lying, is what he said true or false? Since there is no correct answer to this sentence, it is a paradox and it is easy to make people fall into a logical circle.

Gonzalez was stunned for a moment, frowning and falling into deep thought.

Suddenly, he came back to his senses, his face unhappy, and said: "What a mess! I want to ask, if it was really a water ghost you killed, how did you catch up with his shadow at that time?"

Water ghosts can dive into the water and use the shadows in the sea to make their bodies invisible, making them mysterious and unpredictable.

At the beginning, Gonzalez suffered a great loss because of this trick, leaving an indelible scar on his face.

Therefore, when Gonzalez learned that someone had killed the water ghost, he was full of disbelief that there was such a capable person in Black Reef Port. He stared at Yeats, not hiding the doubt in his tone.

Ye Zhi was also stunned. He didn't seem to have seen the water ghost use this trick? Then, Ye Zhi suddenly realized that he killed too quickly and the water ghost didn't use many skills before he died!

This is like a player who has opened the Wind Spirit and Moon Shadow to fight a BOSS with multiple mechanisms.

One strike can kill him in an instant, no matter how fancy your moves are, they won’t work!

Yeats said, of course:

"Wouldn't it be better to just kill it before it disappears into the shadows?"

Ye Zhi glanced at the speechless Gonzalez and said, "It's better to say that it's because your sword is weak that the water ghost escaped in front of you!"

The words fell.

The onlookers opened their eyes wide, smelling an increasingly strong smell of gunpowder, and their discussions became increasingly noisy.

Who is Gonzalez? He is a famous swordsman on the Seven Seas. Although he has never set foot on the mainland in his life, his reputation is far-reaching in the sea!

Fortunately, there was no fighting in front of the bounty list, otherwise Gonzalez, with his proud character, would have drawn his sword and challenged for a duel after his scar was exposed in public! But on the other hand, Loki claimed to be the chosen one of the mist, and he had the hard power to kill the water ghost, so he was not necessarily inferior to Gonzalez.

"Place your bet. Bet these two will fight within a few days!"

Someone in the crowd had already started betting, and many gangsters and pirates joined in the fun.

"Loki is most likely the real Chosen One of God. No matter how powerful the swordsmanship master is, he can't catch up with him!"

"Tsk, aren't there enough counterfeits after all these years? A bounty of 5,000 Sea Serpent Coins is still not as good as Gonzales. I'll beat him!"

Gonzalez has been famous for many years and has a very high status in Black Reef Port. Blackbeard has sent people to recruit him on board many times, but he has always refused with the reason that "how can gems be mixed with mud".

Blackbeard did not send anyone to kill him. After all, he knew that unless he did it himself, no matter how many people he sent, they would only serve as food for Gonzalez, so he endured it. This also established Gonzalez's prestige among the people.

However, Gonzalez was defeated by the water ghost. His record was already inferior to that of the Mist God's Chosen One. Now he was outmaneuvered. His face was as cold as ice and he was very unhappy.

"You have removed a scourge from Black Reef Harbor, and I should thank you."

Gonzalez's face darkened, his five fingers quietly placed on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and he said: "But you insulted me and my sword, I must wash away this shame!"

Many swordsmen value honor more than their own lives.

In the Kingdom of Roland and many other countries, from nobles to common people, they would draw their swords and duel at the slightest disagreement. There was no need for any bets, just to prove themselves!

Seeing Gonzalez take the bait so quickly.

Ye Zhi was secretly delighted and asked quickly: "So, when is the duel?"

If he wanted to establish his authority, expand the reputation of the Chosen Ones of the Mist and the Cult of the Mist, and reap more power of faith in Blackreef Harbor, the fastest way was to step on the powerful people on the list to get to the top.

Gonzalez was ranked second and was the most suitable target to be a stepping stone! Yeats was worried before, worried that Gonzalez would be as reclusive as Blackbeard and difficult to find. Now that he had come to him, he certainly couldn't miss the opportunity to provoke him to a duel!

As soon as the words came out, Gonzalez was stunned for a moment, his mind slowly calmed down, and he felt strange.

What's wrong with this guy? It seems like he can't wait to fight me to the death! No, there must be something fishy going on here. It's probably a trap to lure me in!

Gonzalez slowly loosened his hand on the hilt of the sword, took a deep breath, and said calmly:

"Sooner or later I will have a showdown with you, but it won't be a duel, it will be a competition to see who can get rid of the other two terrifying legends of Black Lagoon Harbor faster!"

Ye Zhi curled his lips, showing no interest at all.

It would be too slow to increase the bounty that way. It would be much easier and faster than Gonzalez just drawing his sword and then stabbing him with his own gun! But Gonzalez was not a fool. He probably acted too eagerly and thought there might be a trick, so he was unwilling to duel with me...

Whatever.

Yeats sighed.

Considering that this guy is still in the good camp, don't be in a hurry. You can step on his head next time.

This guy seems to be a character in the card pool. He achieved the Sanctuary in the later stage. In the plot, he fought against the Valkyrie Hildreth under the name of "Flowing Water Curved Sword". He was killed instantly by Hildreth's Blade Dance. After that, Hildreth realized the mystery of "Flowing Water" and his sword skills reached a new level. He is a tragic character.

Gonzalez was born in the slums of Blackreef Harbor. He showed an amazing talent for swordsmanship since he was a child. His parents died in an arson case due to the gang's loan sharking. Gonzalez escaped by chance on a boat and came across an island. He was instructed by the fairy in the lake, learned the art of flowing water swordsmanship, came back for revenge, destroyed the gang's stronghold, and opened a swordsmanship school in Blackreef Harbor.

The Lady of the Lake is not just Vivian of Avalon, but a general term for a certain type of fairies, which are called nymphs in Greek mythology. They appear in mountains, fields, springs, seas and other places. They are natural elves and often appear in the form of beautiful girls.

Yeats remembered that the nine Muses were originally fairies of the lake, and were promoted by the god of light to become secondary goddesses representing inspiration and art.

"Are you scared?"

Gonzalez aimed to eliminate harm for the people and had been paying attention to the three horror legends for a long time. He thought to himself that if Loki agreed to compete with him, no matter who eliminated the harm, it would be a good thing! "I have to go back to the temple to pray. I don't have time to fool around with you."

'Loki' said in a cold tone and turned to leave.

"Don't leave!"

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

Gonzalez didn't want him to leave like this, so he shouted coldly and was about to rush to Ye Zhi.

At this moment, a giant horn called "Tidecaller" from the beach defenses along the Blackreef Harbor sounded a loud and powerful horn.

Woo——

The sound of the horn echoed throughout Black Reef Harbor.

Ye Zhi clearly saw that everyone's face showed panic, even Gonzalez's face changed suddenly.

"You're new here, right?"

Seeing the slightly hesitant 'Rocky', Gonzalez gritted his teeth, his face livid, and squeezed out words from between his teeth.

"This horn sound is... a sea monster is coming!"

In just a short moment, fear and chaos spread among the crowd. The pirates who had just been huddled together to place bets were terrified and fled in panic, with screams one after another.

"Sea monsters, sea monsters are attacking Black Reef Harbor!"

"Oh my god, this is an Imperial-level Tidecaller Alarm!!"

"Get on the boat, get on the boat quickly, and drive as far as you can!"

A huge horn was built on the beach of Blackreef Harbor. The horn was placed above a giant totem pole and would emit different levels of horn sounds according to the different strengths of sea beasts.

The sound of the horn contained the divinity of the sea god, which was enough to disrupt the ocean currents. Weak sea beasts would be driven away by the horn, but when it was as powerful as an emperor-level sea beast... the horn would only arouse the hostility of the emperor-level sea beast, and it would target Black Reef Port! Regardless of gender, age or status, the only thing that could be done was to pray to the sky! The huge horn sound that was enough to shake the sea immediately plunged the entire Black Reef Port into chaos. The civilians were at a loss, and even the experienced pirates were panicked. Only a few well-trained sailors, led by the captain, immediately boarded the ship and fled in panic in the direction of the sea beast!

From a distance, Ye Zhi saw the pale-faced 'blood beast' Rondo standing on the deck of a light sailing ship, cursing loudly.

"Damn Blackbeard, he collected so much tax as protection fee, but he was nowhere to be seen when the time came!"

"He went to hunt down Miss Lucky and hasn't returned to Hong Kong yet..."

Rondo's fat on his face trembled with heartache at the thought that the entire slaughterhouse might be destroyed.

"No matter if it's the Sea God Temple or any other sect, I will pay tribute to whoever saved my dock!"

Next to a cliff.

Gonzalez's face was solemn.

"Since the port was built, the imperial alarm has only been sounded a few times... and it happened at a time like this!"

At the junction of the sea and the sky in the distance, a black shadow slowly emerged. It was the Island-Covering Dragon Turtle, a famous emperor-level monster. Its carapace was like an island, and its thick scales were shining like a rock, covered with moss and vines. Water fell from the dragon turtle's towering carapace like a waterfall.

The deafening horn of the Tidecaller aroused the attention of the Island-Covering Dragon Turtle. It raised its neck high and let out a long cry, causing the sea to shake and boil! Ye Zhi had a complicated expression and sent a message in his mind.

Daisy! Didn't you say you would use magic to turn a dragon turtle into something? This is clearly a living, royal-level monster!

"Yes, I used illusion and finally lured it here."

There was a hint of laughter in Daisy's voice.

"Next, I'll leave it to you, my chosen one!"

Clang! Ye Zhi took out the magic gun.

"Didn't you say you wanted to compete with me?"

Gonzalez looked at the masked man beside him in astonishment, only to hear him speak calmly:

"Why don't we have a competition to see who can kill this island-covering dragon turtle first!"

The corner of Gonzalez's mouth twitched.

Does he really have the confidence to kill an emperor-level monster alone? Sorry, I spoke too loudly just now! (End of this chapter)
