It is well known that in Bilgewater, any ship leaving the port, no matter how big or small, must throw a golden kraken into the sea as a tithe to the Bearded Lady.
And anyone who doesn't pay tithes will meet the "enthusiastic" Deep Sea Titan, who will use a huge anchor to help clear the channel.
There have been countless unlucky people who have proved the necessity of tithing with the lessons of shipwreck and death. Therefore, in the entire Bilgewater, no one does not know that as a captain, you must prepare a golden kraken with you.
It's a pity that Thresh doesn't know this.
Thinking that he had escaped, he got on a small sampan and tried to rush out of the dock of Bilgewater under the cover of black mist. However, he ended up being targeted by the Titan of the Deep because he failed to pay tithe.
He directly grabbed it with a hook and dragged it into the water.
In order to avoid being pulled to the bottom of the sea or even being sealed, Thresh had to kill himself painfully.
The undead cannot die.
But returning to the depths of the black mist to wait for rebirth is not a good experience - every death will bring the deceased's will closer to the black mist, which is undoubtedly an extremely heavy price for Thresh, who has his own thoughts.
With Thresh finished, everyone visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
A cunning undead always makes people worried, even if he seems a little weak.
However, the black fog has not dissipated, and is even getting thicker - at this time, the night has just begun.
……………………
Most people in Bilgewater regard the arrival of the Black Mist as "an irregular night of soul-eating", but Okao, who has been in high spirits recently, regards it as "a great experience".
In Bilgewater, people's worship of the Snake Mother largely comes from the protection given to the city by the priests during the Soul-Eating Night.
The people of Bilgewater do not have rune steel weapons that can destroy magical structures. Their scimitars and gunpowder cannot deal with the truly powerful undead - and Gangplank can become the scourge of the sea and the king of pirates because he is
One of the few people who can help in Soul Eater Night.
(Of course, the people of Bilgewater don't know that Gangplank was able to take care of the undead in Soul Eater Night because he passed Illaoi's trial and was infected with the divinity of Naga Kaporos.
)
The Soul-Eating Night was a disaster that the people of Bilgewater were afraid of, and Oko thought so at first.
But a newly surrendered guy gave him another idea.
The black mist is not a trouble, but an opportunity to prove yourself.
As long as he can make some achievements in Soul Eater Night, it will prove that he can become the new King of Bilgewater just like Gangplank!
Fighting against the overwhelming black fog alone sounds a bit stupid.
But when he thought that he could prove his strength and become the King of Bilgewater, Okao's mind finally became heated.
So, when the black mist swept in, he faced the black mist without hesitation, and then began to call out the "power of the snake mother".
The tide seemed to have responded to his call, and the vast tide swept in, completely crushing many undead that were staggering and sneaking in the black mist. Seeing this scene, the people who followed Okao let out excited cheers.
.
This is a very powerful force, powerful enough to easily destroy undead spirits that ordinary swords cannot fight against.
With such power, Okao will surely become the new king of Bilgewater!
However, among the cheering crowd, there was a guy wearing a mask, but the face under the mask became more and more distorted.
"Tam!" Gangplank roared in a low voice that only he could hear, "What kind of trick are you doing? Is your goal just to satisfy this clown's humble vision?"
"You already know he's just a clown, so why are you so anxious?" Tam's voice appeared in Gangplank's mind without warning, as if his arms were talking to his brain, "Dear
Mr. Ocean Disaster, I can assure you that he will not be your successor. The final chapter of this story must be the return of the king..."
"I can't see even the slightest sign of the return of the king you mentioned." Gangplank whistled along with the excited crowd while staring at the growing waves on the sea. "This guy's spell is very handy.
, looks even more amazing than Illaoi.”
"Don't be ridiculous, Gangplank." Tam seemed to be amused by Gangplank, "Compared with Illaoi...is he worthy? Believe me, as long as you snap your fingers with your right hand, he will lose everything.
power, and then like a drowned dog, it sank to the bottom of the sea in embarrassment."
Planck subconsciously wanted to try snapping his fingers with his right hand.
But unfortunately, the arm Tam specially prepared for him didn't seem to obey his control very much.
"Don't worry, Gangplank." Tam's voice appeared again, "This guy is just a bait. Even in his current state, he is not enough to completely fight against the terrifying existence in the black mist. The night is still very long. If you want to
The king returns, you have to be patient."
"Patience... I never have that kind of thing!" Gangplank muttered, "Your delay makes me suspicious, devil. I hope your nature is greed instead of arrogance."
"Of course it's greed." Tam's laughter sounded again, "Far more than the kind of greed you imagined... Do you remember what I said, greed is a virtue, and you still have some skills in this regard.
Lack."
"Come on, I don't want to fall into your mouth." Not far away, Okao summoned a huge wave again, crushing countless undead, and Gangplank shouted again, "Tell me, in the end, is it still possible?"
How long will it take?”
"It's coming, it's coming... Don't worry, I can already smell the smell of greed." Tam's tone finally became more cheerful, "Do you smell the smell of blood?"
"Bilgewater is full of the smell of blood lately." Gangplank was a little confused. "Stop playing charades with me, Tam. I've heard enough stories like this lately."
"Okay, okay, now, lower your head and lie on the ground." Tam finally issued the order very directly, "Be careful of blood!"
"???"
Gangplank didn't know what Tam was talking about, but that didn't stop him from lowering his head honestly - and the moment he lowered his head, a bright red spear made of pure blood quietly disappeared.
The ground spread and directly pierced Okao, who was calling the tide majestically.
"who?"
Before the complacency on Okao's face faded away, his body had already tilted back and fell over. The out-of-control tide hit the coast, splashing countless foams. Amid everyone's panic, one person was full of tears.
The pleasant voice appeared clearly in everyone's ears.
"It's really interesting." The voice was so greasy that Planck even felt a little nauseous after hearing it. "My dear nephew, I never thought that I could see an old friend here..."
