The navy branch in the Tianlan capital was destroyed, which naturally caused an uproar throughout the Black Sea.
For a time, the forces deployed by the World Headquarters in the Black Sea were leaderless and were quickly uprooted.
His Majesty King Philip showed the iron-blooded skills of a qualified conspirator. He not only took the opportunity to clean up the secret spy network of CP9, but also purged the aristocratic ministers in the court who had turned to the World Headquarters in one go.
He used extremely bloody methods to suppress more than a dozen "opposition" established aristocratic families, and sent thousands of people to the gallows...
This purge operation lasted for several months and was recorded in Tianlan's history as the "Iron Blood Moon".
On the other hand, under the wave of political turmoil, the Chamber of Commerce will definitely bear the brunt.
The "Giant Whale Chamber of Commerce", which had just flourished after its resurgence, was once again destroyed. Fat Matthew led the members of the Baylor family to return to the capital with a high profile and re-hung the plaque of the "Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce".
The Black Sea Potion Masters Union branch also announced that it had completely severed ties with the Endless Sea Potion Masters Union and changed its name to "Tianlan Potion Masters Union".
After that, another group of people loyal to the "Poison General Union" left.
But President Aldrich didn't care at all. He announced a new training plan for potion masters and formulated new rules and regulations, which made it clear that he would establish his own company.
Since then, the young potions masters in the union have discovered that their potion textbooks have suddenly changed and become all-encompassing...
The "magic potion formula" that was considered taboo by those old potion masters in the past also appears in its entirety in the textbook!
The concept of "all people are extraordinary" gradually spread from the royal capital to the entire Black Sea.
...
The major forces in the Black Sea were suddenly reshuffled because of this "big event".
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that there is a "big boss behind the scenes" behind this turmoil in the Black Sea.
As long as there is that mysterious master who sank the naval island with three swords, no one can stir up the waves.
With such an invincible fighting force, even if there are still fish that slip through the net after the settlement, no one dares to show up again...
The situation in the Tianlan Kingdom calmed down at an alarming speed after violent shocks.
...
All the old friends who should be visited have been met, and Raymond is no longer interested in wandering around the capital and wasting his time.
For the next three months, he hardly left the house.
He stayed in Matthew's manor all day long to meditate and practice asceticism.
And Judy also stayed at the manor because the kendo hall was destroyed and needed to be renovated.
Both of them inherited the "Jokudō One Sword Style" and came from the same sect.
Raymond felt that he should also pass on the swordsmanship left by Soderos, so he often exchanged swordsmanship with Judy without reservation.
Of course, that's all.
Now both of them only have the way of kendo in their eyes.
After practicing hard for nearly three months, Raymond finally entered the legendary "Supreme Sword Demon Realm", the ultimate realm of swordsmen.
As the only swordsman who watched his advancement process, Judy gained a lot.
She is a strange woman in swordsmanship who has advanced to the "Great Swordsman" in Sequence 5. With this great opportunity, her swordsmanship will be much smoother in the future.
Of course, Raymond also took the time to deduce the subsequent exclusive advanced potions for her, which provided her with the most important stepping stone on the road to transcendence, allowing her to focus more on the way of swordsmanship in the future.
After the "Ji Dao Sword Hall" was rebuilt, Judy left the manor.
From beginning to end, both of them were indifferent.
Because Judy, the "Great Swordsman", became famous in one battle, "the best master in the Black Sea" came to her family. More people came to the sword hall to learn swordsmanship from her than before.
Of course, this is a story for later.
...
March passed by in a flash, and a warship with a giant tree on its head arrived as promised.
On this day, the port is exclusively used by the Tianlan royal family.
King Philip led the seven or eight-year-old little prince, and was accompanied by Aldrich and Boggs from the Potion Masters Guild, Matthew and young Zeke from the "Thunderbird Chamber of Commerce", Judy from the "Ji Dao Sword Hall", "Golden Teeth Sea"
Gulev of "The Band of Thieves"....
These old friends waved goodbye to the warship on the dock as it gradually left the port.
Everyone looked lonely, looking at Raymond on the boat with reluctance in their eyes.
Once I leave, I don’t know when I will return.
They vaguely felt that this farewell was probably an eternal farewell.
On the deck of the "Golden Ghost", Raymond waved to everyone, his emotions became more and more intense, and the corners of his eyes were moistened.
Seeing the faces of his old friends gradually blurring in his field of vision, he made his final farewell, "Everyone, this is the farewell. See you soon!"
Far away, Gulev responded with a loud voice: "Raymon, come back to the Black Sea to see our old friends when you have time..."
The old man Aldrich also shouted with tears streaming down his face: "Raymond, this old teacher still hopes to see you alive, you must come back alive!"
The fat man Matthew cried hysterically, without caring about his image as the richest man in the Black Sea, he cried loudly: "Sister, brother-in-law... I can't bear to leave you..."
Judy said nothing, looking at the ship in the distance, her eyes gradually deepened.
All my old friends were gone, and at this moment, I felt a strong sense of loneliness.
This normal human emotion that had been absent for a long time was instantly overshadowed by the heartless state of mind, and there was no more waves.
The wind blew her hair away, and she stood proudly like a sword.
The slender hand holding the hilt of the long sword at his waist tightened slightly.
I sighed slightly in my heart.
For the rest of my life, only this sword can accompany me.
And at this time,
Even though His Majesty Philip showed no emotion or anger, he sighed as he looked at Irene and Raymond on the deck.
Back then, if I had chosen to go out to sea for adventure, I would probably have been so high-spirited.
At this time, he touched the forehead of the youngest son beside him with his hand and asked gently: "Bacchus, do you want to be a great hero like your brother-in-law?"
"Um!"
The little prince nodded and looked at the blue sea, his eyes seemed to be filled with a whole starry sky.
Everyone knew that the ship in front of them was sailing in the direction of the vast "Endless Sea".
That man and his friends are going to fight for human civilization and are hostile to the entire world government.
Although he knew that the road ahead was difficult and dangerous, he still had no hesitation.
"How sure are you of going here?"
"Less than 10%."
"What if I never come back?"
"Then I'll never come back."
...
The "Golden Ghost" sailed unhurriedly towards the mouth of the Black Sea.
On the boat, everyone in the "ghost group" gathered together in a festive atmosphere.
After listening to the narrations of his friends, Raymond realized how bad the situation in the Endless Sea had changed in the past two years.
If Lorraine hadn't been on the ship, and her "prophet" ability had saved everyone from danger time and time again, maybe the "Ghost Group" would have ceased to exist in the repeated sieges of the World Headquarters.
Even so, the friends of the "Ghost Group" also encountered dozens of battles in the past two years.
We even encountered several battles encircled and suppressed by the admiral of the Navy Headquarters. If it weren't for Helen and Lorraine's deadly battle, it is estimated that the "Endless Eight Emperors T Group" would have lost one more person...
Fortunately, everyone is fine.
In fact, due to the cruel baptism of war, everyone in the "Ghost Group" has undergone a transformation.
In the eyes of Raymond, the friends are all very different from those two years ago.
"The tree" that Lulu turned into actually realized the "armed domineering spirit".
The "Sacred Tree of Life" [Mumu Fruit] gave him super strong self-healing and defensive capabilities, even if it was a magic artillery, he could do nothing about it. Even if he was injured, it was just a superficial wound and he could heal himself in the blink of an eye.
Because of this, Big-headed Son changed from an auxiliary tentacle monster doctor to the tree human shield of the ship, and became the banner figure of the "Ghost Group".
After two years of not seeing each other, "Little Titan" Thor has grown several meters taller, with muscles all over his body and hideous scars left on his skin. From his body, we can already vaguely see the giant race as "the best warrior in the world"
That kind of momentum that looks down on the world...
The changes of the two mechanics, Colin and Nicole, are the most intuitive. Their battle suits have been improved more and more powerfully due to the battle, and are full of technology. Liquid healing alloy, magic annihilation weapons, jet flying devices...
If this wasn't a steampunk world, Raymond would have thought they were from a science fiction world.
As the ship's cook, Sha Mao has also changed his impression of always having a sleepy look on his face. He has been wearing thunderous silver armor all his life and is dazzling. The knife mark on his right eye makes his naive panda face look a little more arrogant.
What a shame...
Even the mascot monkey Jiji has almost turned into a muscular gorilla after not seeing him for two years...
certainly,
The most amazing thing is Anna.
...
Raymond never expected that Ms. Navigator, who was only an "auxiliary" force in the team before, would actually make him feel a little bit dangerous now.
"At that time, Captain, you were missing and couldn't be contacted. I thought you had followed the 'Ship of Theseus' to other dimensions. But then, the 'Eight Endless Emperors' were surrounded and eliminated four of them one after another. We thought we would go back to another dimension."
Just wait and wait, otherwise it will be our turn sooner or later..."
Anna explained the reason for her sudden increase in strength.
She slowly narrated: "In order to find a way to deal with the 'evil god'... we thought we could only start with the mythical ruins. Then, I went to the Demon Island and was protected by my third uncle and two seniors from the Revolutionary Army.
Next, the head of Master Tiaz was recovered..."
"Have you explored that abyss cave?"
Raymond's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this.
It turns out that she completed the "Poseidon's Commission" mission.
Although Anna's statement was calm, it was definitely an extremely dangerous adventure.
At that time, the cave almost caused the death of the third uncle in the "demigod realm". The abyss monsters in it, even if they were not gods, had about the same fighting power.
Moreover, there are still a lot of them, and their capabilities are unknown...
The dangers involved can be imagined.
But thinking that if the third uncle and the others could agree to Anna's request, the situation might have become so bad that they had no choice but to be like this.
"Then, I received the divine power inheritance left by Lord Tiaz and became a true 'Ocean Priest'. Unfortunately, we still haven't found a way to deal with the evil god."
Anna said and sighed slowly: "In this fragment of the plane where the laws are missing, the existence of the evil god is the maximum limit that the laws of heaven and earth can allow. No extraordinary person can be stronger than her, so... the situation is not
Be optimistic."
After a pause, she glanced at Raymond again and asked: "By the way, Captain, why do I feel that you are different from before? Have you made a breakthrough again?"
"Yes, I have broken through sequence 0."
Raymond nodded.
Compared with the experiences of his partners in the past two years, his experience can be explained clearly in a few sentences.
For two years, apart from killing monsters, I also practiced cultivation.
He briefly described the scene on the ship and continued: "The 'Ship of Theseus' is so big that it took us two full years to find the cabin where the senior was from the bottom..."
Lulu was obviously more concerned about the old vampire who had lived for countless years. As a biological scientist, he seemed to have heard a fantasy, "Oh my God... Is there really someone who can live from the mythical period to the present? How old should he be?"
Years old...100 million years old, or even more? It's a pity that there are no living samples of his cells, otherwise I would be really curious about how that kind of creature can live for such a long time..."
Sha Mao: "Speaking of which... the first ancestor of the vampire race is really not the big bat from the mythical period, but a humanoid race? I have always guessed that it should be an animal, and I thought it should be able to make soup, but now there is no chance...
.”
Nicole: "Even mechanical creatures can't live for such a long time... It's amazing that there are natural creatures that can do it by relying on their natural instincts."
Luo Lan rarely interrupted, "You can sleep forever? The Vampires are really a magical race."
The friends were also very curious about Raymond's experience, especially Colin, who had seen the design drawings. He even asked eagerly: "Captain, is the actual ship really the same as the design drawings? The drawings
There are a lot of designs that I haven’t figured out yet, can you tell me more details..."
Hearing this, Raymond felt dumbfounded.
Scientists have this kind of virtue. When it comes to academic-related issues, they immediately become obsessed.
He looked at Colin, suddenly thought of something, and said mysteriously: "By the way, speaking of that... Colin, I also brought you a gift."
Colin blinked and asked curiously: "Ah...a gift?"
"Yes. The 'Ship of Theseus' is an ancient ship from the mythical period. Although most of the things on the ship are decayed, this thing happens to be..."
At this time, Raymond took out a fist-sized blue crystal from the package, "I think you need it."
It looks like a teardrop, the blue color is captivating and extremely beautiful.
As soon as this thing was taken out, a layer of holy milky white light suddenly gathered on the deck. It made everyone feel as comfortable as being in a milky white milk bath...
Anna was very sensitive to this power and wondered: "Is this... divine power?"
"Um."
Raymond nodded. Although he didn't know this thing, the system knew it.
【Odin's Tears (Myth)】
Detailed explanation: The tears shed by Odin, the Lord of the Gods, can allow people to gain the ‘power of the God King’.
"Is this...the 'Tears of Odin'?!"
Colin had seen the description of this divine object in ancient illustrations. He looked at the various phenomena when he took out the blue crystal and instantly guessed what it was.
His "Kruz Alchemical Body" has five core components, four of which have been assembled, [Hextech Heart], [Rubik's Alchemy Cube], [Moon Stone], [Dragon's Heart]
Heart】...
This one is missing now!
Raymond nodded and confirmed: "Well, these are 'Odin's Tears'!"
"real?!"
Colin looked incredibly surprised.
He took the blue crystal and said excitedly: "With this thing, my steel dragon body can be transformed without limit, blessed by divine power, and unlimited energy...I will immediately have the power of a demigod!"
"
As he spoke, he opened the alloy baffle on his chest under the curious eyes of his friends, and put the blue crystal into the reserved groove.
At this moment, a dazzling blue light suddenly burst out.
Like an electrified robot, his entire mechanically modified body is activated!
"Wow... Is this the finished 'Kuruz Alchemy Body'?! The legendary most powerful combat weapon in mechanical civilization, it is indeed well-deserved!"
Colin felt the majestic divine power pouring into his body, and his eyes were full of energy: "Now, without the energy shortcoming, many powerful weapons can be added to the battle suit..."
The next moment, he jumped off the deck, and a silver mechanical dragon spread its wings and soared in the sky.
Raymond looked at the mechanical dragon flying happily in the distance, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
Mechanic...
It is indeed a special and extraordinary profession that relies on financial resources and technology.
Colin's speed at achieving "demigod combat power" without any hard work at all is truly enviable.
...
The friends on the boat all lay on the railing on the deck and looked at the silver dragon.
But obviously, a certain navigator lady's attention was not on that.
She looked at Irene, the former admiral of the Navy Headquarters, who was chosen by the evil god to be the "God-descended body", with curiosity in her eyes.
After receiving the complete inheritance of "Ocean Sacrifice", she became more aware of the difficulties of the secret method of "divine descent".
"But, having said that..."
Anna frowned slightly, blinked her big eyes, and asked: "The evil god wants to cultivate a suitable 'divine body' at a high cost. The resources consumed are enough to cultivate a strong demigod. That evil god.
..How could it be possible to give up on Irene, an excellent carrier, so easily?”
After a pause, she still didn't understand. Then she turned to Raymond and asked with curiosity: "Captain, how did you do it?"
