Chapter 229 The Storm Is Coming



On the leeward side of Simim Island, beneath the towering stone walls, the deep sea water is affected by the surrounding waves and is also experiencing considerable ups and downs.

On the "One-Eyed Skull" of the "Mad Captain" Connors Victor, several pirates put on cloaks, pulled up their hats, and walked out of the cabin in the painful rain, facing the crazy wind that could push a child, and checked around to avoid any accidents.

Their cloaks were made of linen, but the surface was coated with a sticky liquid that had solidified, so that rain could not penetrate and could only flow downwards and fall to the deck.

The drug is the sap of the Toningsman tree, which is produced in the rain forest of the southern continent. It is a natural rain shelter material. Because it is relatively common, its price was originally very low. However, after a research team suspected last year that it has a significant effect in promoting hair growth, its price has increased significantly.

"This kind of weather is perfect for drinking liquor, smoking marijuana, and hugging women in the 'Red Theater'!" A pirate looked over the side of the ship and complained.

His companion pulled up his hood in agreement and said:

"I heard that Red Theater has a new batch of goods recently. I really want to try them."

"How did you know?" another pirate asked casually.

The pirate just now laughed and said:

"I heard it from the boss. You know what kind of 'business' the captain is in? So the boss knows a lot of human traffickers. Ha, they like to call themselves slave traders."

"Speaking of this, I remembered that time." The pirate who spoke first showed a nostalgic expression, "Among the 'cargo' delivered, there was actually a noble lady who ran away from home. Her skin, figure, and appearance were simply, simply, simply, I don't know how to describe it. Anyway, I still can't forget it to this day. Unfortunately, she committed suicide!"

As they were talking, they felt the sky in front of them become brighter. They subconsciously raised their heads to look towards the sky, and saw that amidst the rapidly falling rain, there was abnormally silvery-white lightning wandering in the dark clouds that obscured the red moon and stars.

Suddenly, a huge bolt of lightning illuminated the surrounding sea and struck straight to the upper deck of the "One-Eyed Skull"!

Boom!

Electric snakes began to scurry and flames rose from the wooden cabin before the pirates heard deafening thunder.

Then, one after another, silver-white lightning with claws bared fell densely, and the "One-eyed Skeleton", a large sailing ship, entered the forest of thunder in an instant.

At this moment, the thick lightning bolts that were almost intertwined suddenly separated, violating the laws of nature and failing to hit the "One-eyed Skull". Instead, they struck the dark water surface along its perimeter, lighting up the nearby ocean. Tiny, buzzing electric snakes could be seen everywhere.

The pirates on the deck were affected. One was already charred, like a burnt piece of wood, and two fell down, twitching all over.

"There is indeed a problem!"

Klein, who was above the gray fog, saw through the screen that his "lightning storm" was being resolved, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He was sure that this must be the power of a demigod!

If he rashly sneaked into the "One-eyed Skull", even with the "Creeping Hunger", the "Death Knell" revolver, and "Groselle's Travels", he would not be able to put up an effective resistance against this strange power. At that time, there would be no time to pray to himself and respond with the "Scepter of Poseidon" above the gray fog!

Taking a deep breath, Klein made all the blue gems on top of the bone scepter light up one after another!

Around the "One-Eyed Skull", the sound of the storm suddenly split into two types: one half was sharp, as if it could pierce the eardrum and penetrate the brain, and the other half was low, as if knocking on the heart and questioning the spirit.

This brought an extremely uncomfortable experience to the pirates. Each of them had the urge to vomit blood, but this was only a prelude. The sound of splashing water suddenly became violent, and in the direction facing the stone wall, dark black waves surged up, nearly 10 meters high!

The wave was like a wall created by gods, pushed by an invisible hand, rushing towards the "One-Eyed Skeleton"!

This is the tsunami created by Klein!

This can be called a natural disaster!

The crashing sound was like an explosion. The pirates inside the ship looked at the dark sky, swirling dark clouds and huge waves outside, as if they had arrived at the end of the world in mythology and legends. They all lost the will to save themselves.

But as they were desperately waiting for the final judgment, chaos that was completely inconsistent with logic and scientific laws appeared inside the huge waves created by the tsunami. An indescribable vortex quickly formed, tearing the whole thing apart, causing the terrifying waves to collapse at a rapid speed!

Amidst the roaring sound like a mountain collapsing, the subsequent waves lifted the "One-Eyed Skeleton" high into the air, and some of the water splashed onto the ship from the collapse of the previous huge waves, breaking one of the masts, making the cabin tattered, and completely submerging the deck.

Woo!

A sudden strong wind engulfed the surrounding companions and turned into a hurricane beyond its own limits, forcibly pushing the "One-Eyed Skull" in mid-air towards the open sea.

Then, the ship flew in the air with the strong wind, rushing several miles at a time, and did not fall into the choppy water surface. It seemed as if it was an airship and continued to move forward steadily.

Klein was surprised at the way the demigod or the corresponding level seal in the "One-eyed Skull" broke the tsunami, and sighed that his own sequence was not enough. Even if he mobilized some power from the mysterious space above the gray fog, he could not create the kind of tsunami that could destroy the port in Kalvetua. At the same time, he had to control the hurricane to make the "One-eyed Skull" lose its support and fall directly to prevent it from escaping the 5-nautical-mile range that he could affect.

His goal at this moment was not to destroy the "One-eyed Skull" or to capture the "Mad Captain" Connors Victor, but to force the demigod or the sealed object of the corresponding level in the ship to show up.

Such powerful people and objects can be counted even if viewed from the perspective of the entire world. By seeing their appearance, sooner or later you will know who they are and which organization they belong to!

And this is the direction of the follow-up investigation into the Backlund Great Smog Incident!

I just hope it’s not from the “Fortune Teller” channel, otherwise who knows if it’s his real face... However, this is also a good thing. It can not only investigate the truth of the smog tragedy, find out what Ince Zangwill is doing, and prepare for revenge later, but also find the “Weird Mage”’s potion formula and main ingredients... Klein sighed silently, and the gem on the top of the “Poseidon Scepter” emitted a pure blue light.

With a whoosh, the flight of the "One-eyed Skull" changed. It plummeted like a stone and couldn't even glide!

Suddenly, it became very light, and the movement of it falling on the sea was like a feather brushing against a human's face.

At this time, Klein, whose spiritual power had been greatly depleted, was about to muster up his remaining strength to create another tsunami when he suddenly heard a loud explosion-like sound coming from the screen.

That was a terrible sonic boom!

And unlike a normal sonic boom, it seemed to be mixed with the whimpering sound of the wind field.

This comes from the "Sea King" Yann Kottman! Although he is still a long way from here, he can control this sea area and exert influence from a distance on his way here!

This is Sequence 3, a saint close to the angel level!

The horrifying sonic boom blew the "One-eyed Skull" away, without even asking whether it was a victim or not. Anyway, there was nothing wrong in fighting pirates!

At the same time, Klein felt a powerful and terrifying spirit "scanning" his surroundings, looking for every place that might be abnormal, so that the scene in front of him was affected and became blurry.

Restraining the urge to attack again, Klein calmly and rationally ended his response, closed the corresponding prayer screen, and then casually threw the "Scepter of Poseidon" into the pile of debris.

"It's not just a little bit short. If the 'Sea King' doesn't show up, I'm not completely sure I can force that demigod out. My own sequence is still low, so it's always difficult to use the scepter. It's a heavy burden... However, at sea, the 'Storm' path is really strong, it's like a moving disaster...

"The abilities displayed by the demigod just now include distortion, chaos, borrowing, and violation of conventions. This is very similar to the 'Black Emperor' path. Others may not have this feeling, but I have the corresponding 'Card of Blasphemy'! This is definitely not just a 'Chaos Mentor' of Sequence 5... a 'Fallen Count'? Well, the military has some potion formulas for the 'Black Emperor' path, but it seems to be limited to the first five sequences, without Sequence 4 and above..."

Although Klein failed to force out the demigod or the corresponding level of the seal, he also grasped certain clues from the other party's performance. He suspected that a faction of the royal family, in addition to cooperating with the Witch Cult and Ince Zangwill, had also secretly contacted a force that controlled most of the sequences of the "Black Emperor" pathway.

A descendant of Solomon or Trunsost? Was Nast, the "King of the Five Seas," involved in this matter? Klein was thinking seriously when he suddenly heard a layered and echoing prayer sound in his ears.

This interrupted his train of thought, causing him to instinctively spread his spirituality and touch the circle of light next to the seat.

Then, he saw Danitz.

This famous pirate is praying devoutly to The Fool with his eyes closed.

"..." Klein took out his pocket watch in a daze, opened it and looked at it repeatedly, confirming that it was two or three in the morning.

Is there something wrong with his brain? Why are you praying in the middle of the night? Are you going to let me sleep? Klein looked carefully again with anger and amusement, and found that Danitz looked drunk, and there was a faint singing outside.

The crew of the Golden Dream were holding another bonfire party? This time they were celebrating Gehrman Sparrow's death? They even lasted until midnight! Klein immediately understood why Danitz was praying now.

He took a breath, spread his thoughts into the light circle, and spoke in a low voice:

"Recite my name in your heart."

…………

"Sea King" Yan Cotman flew to Simim Island and searched for the place where the abnormal tsunami had just occurred, as well as the ship that did not know which pirate group it belonged to.

He was sure that there was a demigod in that ship!

The tall and sturdy Cardinal of the Church of Storms and the senior deacon of the "Substituted Punisher", with dark blue thick hair, clenched his fist, and the dark clouds in the sky split open, and the crimson moonlight sprinkled onto the sea.

After identifying the positions of the stars, Yann Kottmann flew in one direction.

Suddenly, he slowed down because the pirate ship with the "one-eyed skull" logo was floating on the sea ahead.

The ship had no one controlling it and was drifting in the wind. There were red flames burning in many places on it and charred corpses were scattered all over the ground.

In the middle of one of the masts, a middle-aged man wearing a tricorn hat and a black eye patch was tied. His one eye was wide open, full of fear, and his chest was deeply pierced by a wooden stick, and the blood was stained red.

His life and spirit were completely dissipated.
