Chapter 262: The Sea Surges Back, Attack and Defense Change
Hughes' pen tip rested on the paper, without moving.
Chloe's slightly scribbled handwriting continued to emerge.
〖After I summoned the evil god, I detonated the airship. I couldn't even hold out for a moment, let alone defeat the monster. There was only one possibility - the monster was about to succeed.〗
Hughes thought about it and wrote with his own blood: "What is it?"
[The Pirate King.]
〖Just before I died, I touched the monster's body. Although it was immediately completely corroded, I successfully used my ability before I died. I could see inside its body.〗
〖It tampered with the will of the believers of the Church of Poseidon and transferred the object of sacrifice of the believers to itself. Oh, by the way, it may be hard to believe that the Church of Poseidon actually planned to revive an ancient existence and sacrificed for a thousand years.〗
[Poseidon, right.]
This time, Chloe's handwriting hesitated. She tried to spell the word "Poseidon", but gave up halfway, as if some inexplicable force was stopping her.
〖In short, the pirate king has been accepting sacrifices from the cultists in this way. Originally, if he had just persisted in this way, he might have been able to control the entire Storm Ocean. However, something unexpected seemed to have happened recently, causing him to begin to urgently absorb pollution from the ocean.〗
[Is this possible?] Xius was a little surprised [Isn't pollution a deadly poison to the extraordinary?]
"Of course not, but the pirate king was indeed a genius. He came up with a very clever solution - to let the cultists who sacrificed to him share the harm of pollution."
[Can the harm of pollution be shared? ]
[Originally it was not possible, but the cultists' sacrifices to him created a mystical connection between them, and through this connection the contamination could be passed on, and any link would be dangerous.]
Link Zeus suddenly remembered the silk threads of the worker Zeus. Could this still transmit pollution? [In short, although he used a trick to avoid being directly swallowed by the pollution, he still absorbed a lot of it. He went crazy on the spot. I learned these things from those believers. They have almost merged with the Pirate King. The scene is really miserable.]
Zeus' eyes flickered. It was almost certain that the Pirate King was planning something. The Jewel Bay was being boiled like a frog in warm water by Her Majesty the Queen, and there was not a single supply in the entire Storm Ocean. Would the Pirate King just sit there and wait to die?
If he had just sat there and waited for death, he would not have been able to unify the countless pirates, big and small, and establish the Pirate King's Court.
But no one expected that his means of resistance would be so radical that the entire Gem Bay would be buried with him.
[So, as long as the Pirate King is killed, Castel's crisis can be resolved? ]
"Yes! After the monster dies, the Poseidon believers who were trapped will disperse on their own, so the pupa is effective. I know the price is extremely high, but this is indeed the best way."
"This is my plan, Hughes."
"I know this is a difficult decision to make, but..."
"For Castel we are willing to die."
Hughes looked at Chloe's hurried handwriting, her anxious face seemed to be right in front of him. Hughes was silent for a while, closed the diary and handed it to Richard.
"Thank you, Mr. Richard. Chloe is indeed right. Her plan can indeed save Castel."
"My Lord, do you want to use the pupa?" Richard's voice trembled slightly.
"No." Hughes said slowly.
"The information obtained by Chloe's sacrifice helped me complete the last piece of the puzzle. Now I have a better choice."
Feeling the excitement coming from the mental connection, Xius's eyes gradually became firm.
He had kept the mind link open before, not only to understand the battle situation, but also to tell the banshees what was happening here.
At this moment, the banshees already knew the whole picture, whether it was Monica or everything about the Pirate Court.
"Monica!"
"I'm listening"
"How are you now?"
"Well, I can sense the monster from the Pirate King's Court. It is much stronger than me. I have no way to fight it head-on, but I am half sea god after all. I can control the sea water!"
Hughes gradually grinned.
"I can make the sea water go down. Not only that, I can make the sea water in this space flow back into reality. You know the result, right? -"
"The sea will become land, and Castel and Gem Bay will be connected by land!"
Hughes gnashed his teeth and laughed, "That's enough. You lower the sea level and leave the rest to Castel. Whatever can be solved by supernatural power, can also be solved by equivalent force. I don't believe that after blowing up the Pirate King's Court, that monster can still survive! !"
In the mind link, the banshees cheered.
They had been suppressed for too long. Castel had been shrinking the defense line and making sacrifices. Everyone was trying their best, but the front line was still being eroded by the sea water.
The rising sea water was like a curse, weighing on everyone's heart.
In the distant sea of Castel, Monica mobilized the power in her body. As long as she was in the sea, the water was an extension of her will. In this space, she could exert her power unscrupulously.
As far as her eyes could see, the sea water that was gradually surging in suddenly stopped, then changed direction and left at a much faster speed, roaring towards the eye of the storm like a mountain.
The huge vortex that had originally formed in the eye of the storm stopped instantly, and the sea water that gushed out from the abyss at the bottom rushed to the surroundings with endless power. Dark clouds grew from the top of the eye of the storm, and lightning shuttled through it like light snakes.
From the ice fields in the far north to the continent in the south, from the Blood Harbor of Tis to the Corridor of Despair in the east, it was raining across the entire Storm Ocean.
The bottomless abyss in the eye of the storm turned into a huge spring gushing outward. The Black Pearl, which was stuck on a ridge due to the drying up of the sea water, suddenly trembled. Jeremiah walked onto the deck, was stunned for a moment looking at the heavy rain pouring from the sky, then rushed to the side of the ship, laughing hysterically at the gradually rising sea water.
The crew members knelt on the deck, some praying, some crying, and some screaming wildly.
In the cathedral of Castel, Kyle, with a team of new recruits, carefully poked his head out from the shooting hole. Now there were no more sea urchin spikes and murlocs climbing along the walls outside, and the sea water that had originally submerged everything was gradually lowering.
Ash supported his body with his long sword and breathed heavily. He tore off the tattered armor on his body and showed a hideous smile towards the sinking sea water and the gradually degenerating monster.
Now, it was Castel's turn to counterattack.
