The roar that resounded throughout the sky came from the mouth of the tyrant, shaking everything in the world.
Facing such a powerful monster, human beings are like dwarfs in front of giants, weak and powerless.
Looking at the sailors fleeing in all directions, No. 21 mustered up the courage to condense a fireball in his palm and hit the monster with all his strength.
As soon as the blazing fireball touched the frost armor on the tyrant's body, it completely disappeared without even a ripple appearing.
The tyrant turned his head and looked at the small and ungrateful enemy in front of him. His huge mouth suddenly opened, and a biting ice storm swept across the entire hull in an instant.
The creatures standing on the deck were frozen into blocks of ice, and even large ice floes appeared on the river near the hull.
The tyrant stretched out his huge claws and slapped the deck under his feet hard. The hull bumped up and down, and the human bodies that were frozen into ice sculptures rose into the air and fell to the ground, turning into piles of broken ice slag.
Thelma, who was hiding behind the partition of the slipway, hugged Hyatt tightly, her lips turning purple from the cold trembling: "Father, there is no way we can defeat that monster!"
The weak Hyatt nodded. He turned his head and glanced at the tyrant who was searching everywhere on the deck, and said to his daughter: "In the secret compartment of the captain's cabin, there is an iron box containing the 'Resurrecting Insect'.
Get on it and get off this ship, the sooner the better!"
Selma's tears instantly condensed into ice crystals in the cold air: "No! Father, I can't leave you! Come with me!"
Hyatt gathered all his strength, pulled his daughter in front of him, and looked at her with a determined expression: "Thelma, listen carefully! The 'Resurrection Bug' must not fall into the hands of the church, you must put it away
Bring him back to the Temple of the Mother Goddess safely! Also, tell our compatriots who believe in the Mother Goddess that we misassessed the power of the church! If the church can cultivate monsters with such devastating power, then we must reconsider the beginning
Plans made!”
Thelma grabbed Hyatt's sleeve tightly and shook her head desperately: "Father! I can't just watch you die!"
"Listen! My daughter!" Hyatt held Selma's cheek and said with a smile: "Death is not scary. What I have to experience is just returning to the embrace of the mother goddess. What really scares me is
The only thing is to watch our compatriots go to destruction without knowing anything! Therefore, I place all my hopes on you and bring the news of the "Resurrection Bug" and the monsters back to the Temple of the Mother Goddess!"
Seeing Thelma nodding her head in tears, Hyatt smiled happily. He patted his daughter on the head, saw the right moment and ran to the deck, stood in front of the tyrant, and shouted: "
You damn monster! Come to me! If you have the guts, try to kill me!"
The tyrant stopped and turned his head to look at Hyatt, with little bits of light reflected in his golden beast eyes.
Hyatt looked into the monster's eyes, and after a moment of shock, he suddenly realized that he had made a big mistake.
The behemoth in front of me is not the bloodthirsty and violent monster as imagined, "it" possesses wisdom...
"Pretty poor acting." The monster's voice was like rumbling thunder, but it was a clear and unmistakable universal language.
Hyatt was completely stunned: "You...you can talk?!"
Looking at Hyatt's staggering steps and tired posture, the monster curled his lips, and its shape suddenly changed. Its huge body slowly shrank, and the human form of an adult man appeared in front of it.
Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Hyatt opened his mouth wide and said in disbelief: "You are the church deacon in the sewer!"
Todd, who transformed into Fairchild's appearance, randomly found a rag from the deck and covered his lower body while pointing at the tops of their heads.
Hyatt looked up and saw six griffons hovering over the ship, carefully searching the surroundings of the ship's hull and the nearby water.
"I know you are acting as a bait." Todd gestured towards the sky, and the two gryphons, carrying the Valkyries on their backs, slowly landed on the devastated deck: "I also know you understand the strength.
If there is a huge gap, why don't we skip the embarrassing hostility and bickering and just talk about the deal."
Hyatt was silent, trying to delay time while anxiously praying that his daughter had escaped.
To his despair, a few minutes later, a Valkyrie appeared in front of him holding the unconscious Thelma.
Todd first glanced at the woman in Ivie's arms, then at Hyatt, who looked worried, and finally said with a smile: "It seems like I have another important bargaining chip in my hand."
After using magic magnetic crystals to control the Hyatt father and daughter, Todd ordered the Valkyries to keep an eye on these two alien species.
He himself put on a clean set of holy robes and went to the cabin below the deck.
Pushing open the door, the first thing that caught Todd's eyes was the body of a man in gray robe.
This unlucky guy was hit in the back of the head by a falling wooden beam when the hull of the ship was bumping, and he died like this.
Stepping over the body, Todd walked inside.
Sinclair and Leoric were lying on the two beds in the cabin. They were both fixed to the beds by ropes and could not move.
Seeing Todd's appearance, Sinclair shouted excitedly: "Thank you Heavenly Father! I knew the church would not abandon me!"
Leoric looked at Todd with complicated eyes and remained silent.
Sinclair twisted his body desperately and said impatiently: "Fairchild! My good brother! Untie me quickly!"
Todd didn't move or speak, just looked at Sinclair with a smile.
Leoric glanced at Sinclair beside him, and his voice was like a broken bellows: "Stupid guy! You have been fooled from beginning to end!"
Sinclair opened his eyes wide, thought for a few seconds on the bed, and suddenly shouted to Todd: "No! Who on earth are you?!"
Todd laughed and rubbed his face, and his original appearance immediately returned.
The sudden scene before his eyes caused Sinclair to scream.
Todd moved a chair from the cabin and sat in front of the two of them. He first said to Leoric: "King of the Holy Acropolis, I have to say that your plan surprised me. First, use the heir election.
to intensify domestic conflicts and attract everyone's attention so that you can carry out a series of preparations; then
, you used the Council of Elders to control the situation at the election venue, and used a crazy massacre to get rid of all the nobles who opposed you, and then transferred all the sins to Leoric's body; finally, you used the superpower ritual
, let his soul occupy Sinclair's body and return to the throne of the Holy Acropolis..."
Leoric looked at the roof of the cabin and remained silent.
Todd turned his attention to Sinclair again: "As for you, Your Highness Sinclair, you are deceitful, hypocritical, vicious, and cruel. You have all the characteristics of your father, but you lack one thing - forbearance. You should be consistent with the church.
When you joined forces to control the entire situation, you were obsessed with the coming victory, but forgot to act cautiously and observe the subtleties, and finally fell into the trap."
Leoric looked at Todd and asked in a low voice: "I don't understand, how did you see the flaw in this plan?"
Todd took out a small thing from his arms, which was the badge made of magic magnetic crystal.
"You gave Mary and me something like this, and a friend happened to know its origin..."
Leoric looked at the badge in Todd's hand and sighed.
Sinclair rolled his eyes and hurriedly said to Todd: "My friend, let's make a deal. As long as you help me up on the throne, I can give you everything you want! Wealth? Army? I know.
Yes! It’s Mary you want! Right? Believe me, I have a hundred ways for you to get her!”
Seeing Todd looking at him in astonishment, Sinclair took off his mask of hypocrisy, thinking that the other party was already attracted, so he simply put down all disguises and said quickly: "I got a formula from the church that can make the most chaste women...
Turn into the most slutty resentful woman! Back then, I relied on this medicine to win over my aunt Tania..."
"You beast!" Leoric's eyes widened when he heard this, and infinite strength suddenly burst out from all over his body. He wanted to struggle up from the bed and throw himself at Sinclair.
Sinclair looked at his father's futile look and laughed: "Stop pretending! My father! Do you think I don't know what kind of scandal you and your sister Tania have done?
?Who is Mary’s biological mother? Do you think you have deceived everyone?!”
Sinclair's words were like a dagger, cutting into Leoric's will bit by bit.
The old man's face turned gloomy, and the life he had relied on his supernatural powers had finally come to an end.
The body arched upward, the pupils slowly dilated, the chest stopped rising and falling, the "Lion of Heavenly Father" took his last breath, and everything came down to peace.
Sinclair glanced sideways at his dead father and looked at Todd with a smile: "The troublesome guy is finally dead. Let's talk..."
Before he finished speaking, Sinclair felt a chill in his chest.
Todd used the power of "Shaping" to turn his palm into a sharp blade, which directly penetrated Sinclair's heart.
"Why?"
Sinclair asked reluctantly with blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Todd took back the "sharp blade", looked at this despicable and dirty bastard coldly, and said slowly: "Being with a person who only has darkness in his heart, sooner or later, he will be swallowed by darkness."
