The Hidden Moon Castle sank to the bottom of the sea.
An abandoned castle sank in an aristocratic neighborhood and no one cared.
But the three corpses hanging on the pier of Philip Pilot Bay shocked everyone...
The bodies of the Grand Duke of Orm, the lord of the Orm Territory, Arthur, the first heir, and "Foil" Lubis, the number one bounty hunter in the Black Sea, were hung on the gallows, swaying in the sea breeze.
Archduke Aum's assassination of Archduke Philip was revealed, and the Philip Territory officially declared war on the Orm Territory.
While shocked, the old nobles led by Philip also woke up to the fact that the "Night Crow" who came to power with iron-blooded methods and put down the rebellion in the territory in a short time was still so ruthless after all, and his strength was even more terrifying.
No one knows exactly what happened in the Philip Academy library last night, but they also heard that at least five Sequence 5 extraordinary beings participated in the assassination.
In the final outcome, Archduke Philip fought one against five and killed two of them crazily!
As soon as this news came out, the veteran nobles of the "peace-seeking faction" who had been restless a few days ago all calmed down. The territory was even more jubilant, praising the lord's peerless might.
The reputation of "Nightcrow" Philip, the number one expert in the Black Sea, once again spread throughout every territory.
No one knows that twenty years ago, the captain of the Seventh Division of the Pirate King Fleet and the super master Ralph D. Capone regained his heart and regained his life.
...
In his weak state, Raymond had difficulty walking, but his fatigue could not cover up the sparkle in his eyes.
"Look... isn't that the guy named Raymond?"
"This kid killed Faerun and he's not dead yet?"
"I heard that the lord suppressed all the nobles' criminal accusations against him... I guess Faerun is confused to death..."
"Hey...I heard that this boy has captured the heart of Princess Irene and will soon become the Duke's son-in-law, so..."
"Ignore the gossip, let's go to the library and have a look...I heard that the Duke killed two super masters there last night...It is even said that there are traces of people suspected of having Devil Fruit abilities!
"
"..."
Raymond walked to the library alone, and was pointed at by others along the way. As he listened, he seemed to be the kind of pretty boy who was just a softie in the eyes of others. He didn't really care, and just laughed it off.
However, Raymond was really surprised when he heard the news that Archduke Phillip defeated two Sequence 5 masters in one battle.
It turns out that not only was there a big battle in the Hidden Moon Castle last night, but there was also peace here.
"Tsk tsk...'Night Crow' is indeed well-deserved! However, now that the vampire boss has taken back his heart, I'm afraid he doesn't need to be restricted anymore... With such a super boss here, Philip's leader is probably going to take off.
....”
Raymond suddenly felt a little excited.
Before, he was a little worried about Philip leading the "peace-seeking faction" and the old nobles making small moves, but now... in the face of absolute force, all conspiracies are just chickens and dogs!
He walked into the second floor of the library, which was in a mess.
Students and staff are cleaning up the debris of the smashed buildings and sorting out the broken bookshelves and classics
Even though he had already guessed, when he saw the traces of the horrific battles in the librarianship, Raymond could not help but be shocked.
"It seems that Archduke Philip has reached the peak of Sequence 5...perhaps there is a chance to reach a higher level..."
He suddenly felt that the thigh he was holding had a bright future. Before he had time to think about it, he suddenly noticed that the surrounding environment had changed and he suddenly appeared in the secret room again.
At this moment, the vampire boss was looking at him with a chuckle.
"Last night, you really surprised me... I didn't expect that you were only Sequence 9, and you actually survived to the last minute... Just for this reason, you are the most incredible of all the young people I have met.
.”
Capone did not hesitate to praise him, and with an inexplicable light in his eyes, he continued: "Mary is also full of praise for you..."
Raymond laughed twice. Facing such a super-level boss, how could he dare to be a little presumptuous? "Master Capone is so ridiculous..."
Capone raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Do you know my identity?"
Raymond was slightly startled, "Uh... I heard Mary called her that."
Capone shook his head and said with a smile: "You are really clever...you think I don't know that you guessed my identity when you first met me? I'm really curious, Haiying
Si’s inheritance is really so miraculous, it makes you seem to know a lot of things by yourself, like a prophet..."
"..."
When I heard the word "prophet", I suddenly felt a little harsh.
Raymond decided to speak less. Faced with such an old monster, if he said a few more words, he would be sure to have his money taken out.
Capone had no intention of exploring his secret. Instead, he changed the topic and took down the "Haines' Death Note" from the bookshelf and said, "This is the reward I agreed to give you..."
"Thanks."
Raymond took over the notebook, which exuded a strange and lifeless aura, and his eyes were filled with joy.
Finally got it...
【Haynes' Death Note 2】
Detailed explanation: The mysterious notes left by the great sage Heines.
Capone continued: "Your performance last night far exceeded my expectations. It can be said that the biggest credit for my ability to get my heart back belongs to you... So, if you need any rewards, just ask."
, as long as I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you."
Hearing this, Raymond didn't mince words and said directly: "Master Capone, I want to get the 'Kingdom Secret' that the former King Tianlan left here... Well, that's the one over there.
crown."
As he spoke, he pointed to the crown hanging on the knight's armor.
"Did that little girl Anna ask you to come get it?"
Capone smiled, obviously he already knew what was going on.
He said in a rather emotional tone: "After all these years, that girl still hasn't given up..."
Raymond nodded.
At this time, Capone looked at Raymond, his eyes rolled, and he didn't know what he was thinking of. He suddenly changed the subject and said: "Then you think about it... I can only satisfy your one request, choose to take this hat
Crown, then you will no longer receive any payment from me."
Nani, can you only choose one?
Raymond's face twitched unconsciously, these words really made him hesitate.
But just a moment later, he nodded and said: "Well, I will choose this."
It’s not about whether the Kingdom Secrets really records a Devil Fruit for him to look forward to, but what’s more important is that he promised Anna.
This is a promise.
Although he knew that if he gave up this option, he might be able to immediately cash in benefits worth no less than Devil Fruit directly from the vampire boss, but...sometimes, promises...are worthless to some people.
To some people it is more important than life.
Regardless of skills, martial arts, equipment... he can obtain them all based on his own ability. With his familiarity with the plot, if he wants to get some rare items, he only needs to put in more effort and time to get them...
Raymond thought of Anna, that stupid woman who was stubborn and a bit sad for the restoration of the country. If he didn't help her, she would probably be like in the game, running on the bitter road of restoration for the rest of her life...
Since I promised her, I still have to do it after all.
Capone raised his eyebrows and asked again: "Have you thought about it?"
"Um."
Raymond exhaled a long breath, his expression a little helpless. Although he made this decision, he felt enlightened, but it still really hurts...
"good!"
Capone didn't say much. With one hand, he took the crown directly into his hand from the air and said: "Okay, I'll give you the thing. The revenge I promised you will be settled in full."
Raymond took the crown and suddenly felt that it was heavy.
"If Anna sees this thing, she will definitely be happy from the bottom of her heart..." Touching the crown, that bright and pretty face immediately appeared in his mind, and he felt less painful.
"I hope the devil fruits and ancient weapons are real, otherwise we will suffer a big loss this time..."
If there are no devil fruits and ancient weapons in the "Nightmare Ghost", it means that Anna's purpose of returning to the country is to fetch water from a bamboo basket, and it is impossible for him to recruit such an excellent navigator... It's a piece of cake, just think about it.
My balls hurt.
Capone witnessed Raymond's decision, with a flash of imperceptible relief in his eyes. He said: "Although I have my heart back now and am no longer controlled by others, I want to regain the strength I had in my heyday.
There is still a lot of trouble..."
When Raymond heard this, he suddenly looked up at the vampire boss. Is this... a sign that a new mission is triggered?
In the game, this kind of dialogue usually means triggering a subsequent mission.
Sure enough,
At this time, Capone showed his arms and grabbed with one hand, as if he was trying to crush the air. The veins in his arms popped out when he exerted force, and his face gradually became ferocious.
"What is he going to do?" Raymond looked at this inexplicable behavior and was a little confused.
But at this moment, he was surprised to find that a lightning arc flashed in Capone's hand, which was exactly the same as the arc on the heart last night!
It seemed that it took a lot of effort to control the light arc capon. When the light arc disappeared into the body of his hand again, he took a deep breath and said: "You should be familiar with the 'power of god' just now.
.”
"Yeah." Raymond nodded.
"I thought it was a dead end last night, but I didn't expect you to actually dissolve that ray of 'God's Power'... You really brought me a lot of good luck."
Capone looked at Raymond, with a look of relief on his face, and sighed: "Haines' inheritance is indeed extraordinary..."
After a pause, he glanced at Raymond expectantly, and then said: "In that battle back then, in addition to having my heart ripped out, these two 'god powers' tortured me for two whole days.
Ten years...so, you should know what I want to say."
Raymond nodded.
In fact, when he saw that ray of light arc just now, he was like a weasel seeing a chicken, with a green light in his eyes. He clearly remembered that just such a ray of light arc was worth 1,000 potential points and 1,000 soul strength.
...This is equivalent to killing five bosses of about Sequence 6!
This "god power" may be a trouble to others, but to him it is a free potential point.
But he was still in a weak state, and he was a little excited when he saw the big pie falling from the sky. His expression was complicated, and he was so excited that he couldn't speak for a moment...
From Capone's perspective, this situation is something else entirely.
Obviously, he knew what kind of terrifying thing the "Power of God" was, and he naturally knew that even if Heins's descendants wanted to dissolve this thing, they would definitely have to pay a heavy price.
A trace of apology appeared on Capone's face, and he said: "If you can help me get rid of these two 'powers of god' in my body, my injuries can be recovered quickly..."
As he spoke, he added: "Of course, I also know that doing this will definitely be a big burden on you! Therefore, I will pay you an equivalent reward."
"Reward?" Raymond was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and was overjoyed. Where can I find such a good thing as getting two thousand potential points for nothing? The price is only a few days of weakness... and there is actually a reward?
When he looked at Capone's serious expression, he knew that the boss might have misunderstood something.
In this case... let's let the misunderstanding go deeper.
Raymond showed a bit of embarrassment and said: "Well, last night was also an accident... It is indeed because I inherited the ability recorded in Heins' notes that I can dissolve that magical power... But, that's
It brought me great sequelae..."
A "weak" state, the meaning of terminal illness can be read on the actor's face.
Without further ado, Capone directly took out an orangutan bead that looked like a raindrop and said, "This is the 'Blood Sand Bomb' I got in an ancient ruins back then. After detonating, its power is roughly equivalent to that of a Sequence 1 master.
A full blow...this thing is enough to save your life in times of danger."
【Blood Rock Bullet】
Special magic bullets
Detailed explanation: Causes physical damage to a single target and obtains a killing effect; legendary magic firearms can be used;
"Rare magic bullets?" Raymond looked at the blood-red bead, obviously knowing what it was. The method of making this special powerful ammunition has long been lost, and occasionally a few can only be found in the remains of some ancient super technological civilizations.
.Although it is only a one-time item, it is extremely valuable.
But... to activate this kind of ammunition, it must be at least a legendary level magic firearm?
I don’t have any!
Suddenly, Raymond thought of something again, and said softly in his heart: "Hey...if I remember correctly, isn't Anna's magic pistol just a legendary-level musket?"
With this thing in hand, doesn’t it mean that we have another life-saving weapon?
He was indeed a little moved, but in order not to make his motives seem so obvious, he said with a slight hesitation: "Master Capone, I will do my best..."
Capone probably also felt that his bargaining chip was a bit thin, and dissolving the "power of God" might be a life-threatening matter. He felt that even if Raymond refused, it would be natural.
Thinking of this, he suddenly took out a doll from the space equipment!
"This is this?" Raymond was a little confused. In front of him was a well-made wooden puppet. The whole body exuded a faint holy light. It was obvious at a glance that this thing was no ordinary item.
And the system intuitively showed the extraordinary features of this puppet.
【Sacred Wood Puppet】
Strength 10
Comes with special effects:
[Godly Recovery] Self-healing 100%;
Detailed explanation: Puppet made from the branches of the sacred tree of life, an excellent carrier for the separated soul; physical damage immunity is 99.99%, magic immunity is 99.99%;
"Fuck...that's awesome! The legendary absolute defense puppet!"
Raymond was really shocked when he saw the attributes for the first time. It is not an exaggeration to say that the puppet in front of him is a "divine object". Not only does its strength reach the upper limit of 10, it is also immune to both physical and spells! This
It is the legendary "absolute defense". As long as it does not exceed a certain endurance limit, it will never be destroyed!
In other words, either your attack is strong enough to break it in one go, or you can never break it!
"This is the puppet of 'Dres' last night. I destroyed his consciousness and it couldn't be destroyed even if it exploded, so I brought it back..."
Capone explained: "Haines is a 'soul sage' and is good at spiritual magic. I guess this thing should be very useful to you."
No wonder "Dres" was so fierce last night and was beaten so badly by Capone, but he was unscathed. It turns out that the material of this puppet is made of "the magic of life"!
"Huh? The legendary 'Sacred Tree of Life' that is the origin of the elves really exists. Could it be that Moon Spring also exists?"
Raymond finally came into contact with the real tree of life that only existed in myths and legends for the first time... This also confirmed that those legendary civilizations really existed.
He originally thought that the "divine magic of life" and the fragments of ancient civilization information introduced in the game were just mythical story texts created by the game company to create a mysterious atmosphere. Did they actually exist?
"It seems that you are quite fond of this puppet, so I gave it to you as well..."
Capone was really moved when he saw Raymond and breathed a sigh of relief.
He really doesn't want to force others to do things for him unless he has to. What's more, if something as dangerous as "God's Power" goes wrong, he will be the one to suffer in the end.
Now that the conditions have reached this point, Capone plans to fill in one more chip to make Raymond completely determined.
He said: "Even if you become a member of the 'blood clan', I will naturally teach you some abilities exclusive to the blood clan... I think your swordsmanship talent is pretty good, but you seem to lack the body skills to match it...
It just so happens that our 'blood clan' has an exclusive movement technique [Transformation]..."
"Transformation?" Raymond heard another awesome term...
This skill is known as one of the "Eight Great Skills" of Shenfa in the game. It is even one level higher than the "Shaving" of the Sixth Marine Style, and is listed as one of the Eight Great Skills along with "Moon Step".
When this body technique is practiced to perfection, it can appear in infinite flashes... It looks like a ghost, making it difficult for people to guard against it!
Seeing Capone's expectant expression, Raymond couldn't help but understand.
He said impassionedly: "Sir! I will leave that 'power of god' to you. No matter how high the price is, I will definitely help you solve it completely!"
"Um."
Hearing this, Capone finally showed a relaxed smile. He thought for a moment and then said: "Then when you feel better in a few days, let's try again..."
Raymond immediately said: "Okay! I'll come back in three days."
"Don't be so anxious..."
Capone was originally a little worried about his health, but looking at the guy's impatient look, he obviously realized that he seemed to have guessed something wrong.
"I will do anything for Lord Capone even if I die!"
"..."
Capone's face twitched, and he always felt that something was wrong.
If this word came from Mary's mouth, he would still believe it, but if it came from the mouth of a thief like Raymond, it wouldn't taste right no matter how he heard it.
At this time, he suddenly realized that it seemed that he had been plotted by that thief boy just now?
It seems that solving the "power of God" is not as difficult for Heins' successors as expected?
