There was only one Black Death... The other ships were afraid of being discovered and had no time to escape, so they stopped outside the waters of the Rorsted Archipelago? This was good news... Klein retracted his gaze and deliberately bit his lips with his teeth to show his inner unrest.
Glancing at Elaine's profile, Misor lit the torch and swung it continuously, sending a signal to the flagship.
Not long after, a small boat came and took him and Klein, who was disguised as red-haired Elaine, back to the Black Death.
As the boat was hoisted, Crane boarded the flagship of another pirate general and entered the cabin under the guidance of Mithor.
There was a blonde maid waiting in front. She glanced at Elaine coldly and pointed to the room on the side.
"Come in."
This attitude is just like a love rival meeting... This Vice Admiral Disease's charm is really popular with both men and women... Klein immediately became alert. Wearing handcuffs and with a sullen face, he followed the blonde maid into the room.
He had expected to see Tracy right away, to have a one-on-one opportunity, and he was ready to go, but the carpeted room was small and empty except for a closet, a sofa, and a full-length mirror.
Was Tracy deliberately ignoring him to express her anger? Klein recalled the romance novels and melodramatic TV dramas he had read, and speculated on the intention of the "sick girl" doing this.
The blonde maid glanced at Elaine, who was wearing men's clothes but lacked neutral beauty because she was not wearing makeup. She took two quick steps, opened the wardrobe, pointed at the numerous dresses inside and said:
"The captain doesn't like the way you look now, change into something else."
Fuck… Klein cursed in his heart.
He thought that he could directly meet "Lieutenant General of Disease" Tracy by dressing up as Elaine in men's clothing, and was glad that he could achieve his goal without being too embarrassed. In the end, he still couldn't escape the part he least wanted to face.
Seeing Elaine standing there in a daze, the blonde maid glared at her:
"You only have two choices, change it yourself, or I will change it for you!"
Klein imitated the red-haired Elaine's usual movements and took a deep breath.
"Uncuff me."
He half turned around, pointed at the door with his chin and said:
"Then get out."
"Pretentious bitch..." The blonde maid cursed softly and opened Elaine's handcuffs with the key Misor gave her.
After she left the room and closed the door, Klein walked to the closet and stood there, stunned for nearly twenty seconds.
Suddenly, he closed his eyes and stretched out his right hand.
He didn't know how long it had passed before he came to the full-length mirror and saw Elaine inside with her red hair down and her green eyes sparkling. She was wearing a golden-red long dress with a ribbon tied into a flower around her waist, which was tied very tightly to highlight her slender figure.
Elaine's soft face was slightly flushed, her lips were tightly pursed, and her expression was solemn, which was very similar to the feeling in the previous photo.
Klein saw himself transformed into this image. First, he felt a little ashamed, but he had already adapted to the dressing room and passed the initial stage. Besides, there was no one else here. Second, he gradually found some different feelings.
This is not to say that he gradually fell in love with similar things, but that in the process of disguise to overcome the mental barriers, his self-consciousness became detached to a certain extent, as if his soul had flown out of his body. He looked down calmly at "Elaine" putting on women's clothes and adjusting herself in the mirror, thinking that this was a necessary means for the task and that there was nothing to be ashamed of or strange about it.
Klein inexplicably felt that this feeling was very familiar. He tried hard to recall it, tried hard to compare it, and tried to pin it down and grasp it clearly.
Soon, he found the source. It was similar to playing a role-playing game by himself, choosing a female character, carefully shaping her face, selecting clothes, and letting the beauty please his eyes.
There is nothing vulgar or shameful here. On one hand, there is the God's perspective across the screen with a detached attitude, and on the other hand, people are acting seriously and living out the plot. The two are perfectly integrated and indistinguishable from each other. There will be no psychological or cognitive barriers caused by playing a game.
This... Klein's half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and he felt that this was the "Faceless Man" state he wanted!
You can pretend to be anyone but yourself.
While integrating into the role and trying your best to act, you should also detach yourself from emotions, examine the situation calmly, and through little by little comparisons, recognize yourself and find your truest self!
“Both integrating and withdrawing… This is the practical application of the Faceless Man’s most important rule.” Klein suddenly calmed down, with the remaining shame and the changed mentality coexisting.
With a detached attitude, as if he was playing a role-playing game, he examined himself in the full-length mirror, carefully looking for areas where he was not good enough.
“Luckily, I asked Danitz to get two sets of women’s clothing back in advance to study the components. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to put them on so quickly and normally for the first time, and it would be easy to reveal flaws. Ha, this is called professionalism. Women’s clothes are really complicated... From the perspective of the ‘Faceless Man’, Elaine’s facial features and facial lines still have many flaws. Although she is beautiful, to me, she is definitely not stunning... Well, in this state of mind, I can clearly feel the digestion of the potion..." Klein looked at himself in the mirror, as if he was looking at a character named Elaine.
Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the door, and the blonde maid asked impatiently:
"Are you ready?"
Klein's face immediately darkened, as if the other party owed him 10,000 gold pounds and had not yet returned it.
He remained in this state as he walked to the door and opened it.
The blonde maid glanced at him, raised her handcuffs and said:
“Put your hands behind your back.
"You are a prisoner now!"
Because Red-haired Elaine was already on the Black Death, she was not worried at all that the other party would suddenly attack her. She just wanted to humiliate the other party.
Klein snorted, half turned around, and put his hands behind his back. He felt relieved that the other party didn't pay much attention to his appearance.
After putting on the handcuffs, he was led by the blonde maid to the captain's room.
The door of the room was half-open, and a fragrance with a warm feeling filled the air. It was not strong, but long enough to leave people with an endless aftertaste and involuntarily imagine the joy of the bed.
The blonde maid raised her hand and knocked on the door. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a slightly low but soft female voice from inside:
"Let her come in alone."
The blonde maid's expression suddenly turned gloomy. She pushed open the door and signaled Klein to come in with her eyes.
The most crucial "exam" is here... Klein took a breath and walked into the room.
Behind him, the door slammed shut, isolating the inside and outside.
Klein walked on the thick carpet and saw, with the help of candlelight from the golden lampstand, a very beautiful lady sitting behind a desk. Her legs in beige trousers were stretched out at an angle and crossed.
She had long, straight eyebrows and a pair of sharp, bright blue eyes. She wore only a white linen shirt on her upper body, and her inner beauty was faintly visible, but was obscured by her hanging black curly hair. Klein suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Seeing the red-haired Elaine coming in, Lieutenant General of Disease Tracy raised her left hand and asked with a smile:
"Tell me, how should I punish you?"
She held a black whip in her hand.
…Ma’am, please talk nicely… Klein used complaints to fight his uncomfortable mood.
His eyes first turned slightly upwards, then he looked at the other person straight in the eye, and said without any emotion:
"Coming back here is the biggest punishment, everything else is just additional."
"Still as stubborn as before, and always wavering..." Tracy stood up, her figure slender and graceful. Under the candlelight, the shadows on her body rose and fell, extremely charming.
With a smile on her face and a whip in her left hand, she walked towards the red-haired Elaine step by step without any doubt.
During this process, Klein noticed that she was wearing a bracelet inlaid with diamonds on her right wrist.
The magical item that Elaine described? It could offset most of the damage? Klein, who had intended to fight as soon as the two sides got closer, resisted the urge.
"Oh, they handcuffed you. That's good. We've never played this kind of game before." Tracy said with a smile, but her blue eyes seemed like an ocean filled with storms.
Madam, your lines are a bit terrible... Klein pursed his lips and said nothing.
Tracy walked in front of him, raised her right hand, touched his cheek and slid it down:
"Coming back is the biggest punishment?"
As she spoke, her eyes became hazy and extremely alluring:
"I see that you don't usually think so. Although you are always resistant at the beginning, you are often more enthusiastic than me later..."
Before she finished her words, Klein's left hand mysteriously pulled out of the handcuffs, grabbed the bracelet on her wrist as fast as lightning, and yanked it down!
At the same time, the hand was covered with a layer of gold, and two flashes of lightning suddenly lit up in Klein's deep green eyes.
This is "creeping hunger", this is "spiritual piercing"!
The ability to break free from the handcuffs just now belonged to the "Magician", and it was the "Bone Softening" that Klein rarely used!
He had already planned and prepared for what to do after infiltrating, which was to look for an opportunity to fight "Lieutenant General of Disease" Tracy one-on-one, and fight the opponent without holding back.
Only in this way could he hope to defeat a pirate general, only in this way could he inflict severe damage and capture his opponent.
Even if that didn't work, it wouldn't matter if he was killed. Klein was already very skilled at communicating with spirits above the gray fog, so he wasn't afraid of not being able to obtain intelligence. A human trafficker wasn't worth his pity or mercy!
In addition, in order to avoid being discovered, he only brought the "Creeping Hunger" which was the least noticeable and best at disguising itself. All other magical items were put back into the mysterious space above the gray fog. In addition, he was now in the Black Death and there were many hostile Beyonders around him, so he had to fight quickly!
This is also to circumvent Tracy's disease ability.
The longer you fight her, the more serious her condition becomes and the more terrifying her disease becomes!
At that moment, the diamond-studded bracelet slipped off Tracy's wrist. Klein's green eyes flashed with light, but the beautiful and charming "Lieutenant General of Disease" still seemed a little dazed, and just instinctively dodged backwards.
She couldn't believe that Elaine would do this to her, and couldn't believe that she had similar reactions and abilities.
