Since awakening the ability of Baizetu, Lawrence has collected more than a dozen phantoms of monsters. But the problem is that the combat effectiveness of these phantoms is too terrible. If they can defeat the enemy, Lawrence needs to be a little more serious.
They can be easily killed in one go, but more often than not, they are unable to even participate in the battle because of their low strength.
Therefore, when Lawrence first owned Baizetu, he dreamed of having a group of monsters appear out of thin air and drown the enemy with just a wave of his hand. It seemed that it would not be possible in the short term, but he also found another way and developed Baizetu's
Another usage.
That is to let these monster phantoms serve as his eyes for reconnaissance, or as coolies to carry various things after the battle. And these phantoms can even play a variety of roles when used together with paper man magic.
Unexpected effect.
For example, these monster phantoms can be used to carry a stack of paper figures to break through places that are too fragile to approach, and then release these paper figures to conduct large-scale reconnaissance of the surrounding environment.
Now, Lawrence and the others were standing on the deck of the Enterprise, eating coconuts and waiting for the results of the investigation by the paper men and monster phantoms.
Pirates often use their ingenuity when hiding things on ships and hide them in various parts of the ship's hull. If you rely solely on manpower to find things, unless the ship is completely dismantled, it is easy for wealth to slip through the net during the search.
fish.than
For example, when Lawrence was at Eagle Castle, he often heard rumors from workers who came to drink in the tavern that workers at a certain shipyard and shipbreaking yard found rings, gold coins and even gold coins from the gaps in the plywood when dismantling old ships.
It's a thick wad of money.
Pirates are no exception. For example, Lawrence's papermen found all kinds of hidden wealth from the cracks of plywood, under wooden barrels and other small spaces. Even Lawrence was on the sunk ship.
It was discovered in the wooden boat that someone actually dared to make a hole in the board to hide his wealth, and then blocked the hole with pieces of wood.
As time went by, a pile of trophies slowly began to appear in front of Lawrence and the others. Some of them were trophies that had just been salvaged from the sunken ship and looked wet. The other part was from the two boats that were still floating on the sea.
Obtained from the pirate ship on board.
These trophies look a bit messy, including various precious metal currencies, as well as banknotes from the Star Sea and even economically stable countries in the Old Continent. There are even some various pieces that have been cut into small pieces by cutting or other means.
Precious metal fragments, but they are quite in line with the pirates' habit of dividing their stolen goods.
Finally, under the vigorous dragging of a group of monsters, the two safes were dragged onto the deck of the Enterprise. They were then placed together with the wealth found from various parts of the pirate ship.
After all the paper people and the monster phantoms returned, Lawrence and the others threw the empty coconut shells into the sea, and then walked towards the captain's cabins of the two ships together. Because according to the paper people's returns, there were still possibilities
The only place where wealth exists is in a magic-defended cabinet in the captain's room of the pirate flagship.
The safe of the sunken ship and the safe of the steamship that just surrendered have been moved to the Enterprise, and the next work will be handled by the first mate. According to the rules, the seized wealth that has nothing to do with the extraordinary will be
1/4 will be handed over to the navy, while the remaining 3/4 will be distributed among all non-supernatural beings participating in the war.
The wealth distributed by the people on the ship will be divided into many parts. 1/8 of the total wealth belongs to the commander, 1/8 belongs to the management, the deputy captain, navigator, marine captain, carpenter, etc. on the ship are equivalent to the company.
The management of the ship will share 1/8 of the total amount; 1/8 will go to the business backbone, the ship's doctors, chaplains, and division chiefs, etc. will get one-eighth; 1/8 will go to the secretaries, junior officers, Marine petty officers, and doctors
The assistants get 1/8 equally; the final 1/4 is redistributed among the ordinary sailors.
However, because the Enterprise is relatively small, many of the personnel on board work part-time. Therefore, many people can get two or even three shares of wealth. For example, Lawrence, as a supernatural combatant, can theoretically only get a share of the extraordinary loot.
He received the spoils of war, but during this battle he also held the concurrent jobs of commander, doctor and doctor's assistant, so according to the rules, he could also get part of the money.
Of course, to Lawrence and the several extraordinary beings on the ship, although these worldly wealth were dazzling to their eyes, they were far less attractive than the extraordinary treasures in the safe on the pirate flagship.
After pushing open the door of the pirate group leader's room, it was as empty as everyone had imagined. However, because they had only noticed people's findings before, everyone simply bypassed the tables where treasures might be hidden or the things on the bed.
The locked wooden box finally led to a large wardrobe.
"This is where my paper man and the monster phantom lost contact just now." Lawrence pointed to the ajar door. On the wooden floor outside the door, there were seven or eight groups of humanoid ash that were only the size of a palm.
.
These ashes are the traces left by the little paper people and monster phantoms that Lawrence just commanded when they tried to open the cabinet. Of course, the ashes are just the burning of the little paper people after they were severely injured, and those monster phantoms were burned after they were hit hard.
Nothing will be left after defeat.
"Is there anything abnormal about this cabinet?" At this time, the agricultural druid of the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture asked curiously, because he didn't think there was anything wrong with the cabinet in front of him.
"There must be something abnormal, otherwise it would be impossible for the paper figures like my son to be burned to ashes in an instant." Mr. Lambert naturally knew the characteristics of Lawrence's paper figure magic.
After returning from studying, Lawrence's paper figures have reached a higher level than before. At least in terms of fire protection, they can achieve the level of fire protection. If it is an ordinary flame, it will take 15 seconds to catch fire. In such a situation, it will burn to ashes in an instant.
It's definitely not normal.
As a priest of the Church of Knowledge, Lawrence's adoptive father, Mr. Lambert, seemed quite experienced when facing such a situation. He took out a magic item made of brass and glass from his arms and held it in front of his left eye with his left hand.
After checking the cabinet, I tried to release a few magics, then turned to the others and said
"There are indeed some very dangerous magics set up here, and they are very hidden. If I hadn't known about it in advance, it would have been much more troublesome than I imagined, and it might even have been life-threatening."
"Father, is this thing really so troublesome?" Lawrence asked: "That person is just a black priest of about the same level as you. He probably doesn't have enough skills to set up such a powerful magic item."
"You are right, the black priest himself should not have such a level." Mr. Lambert shook his head gently, then put away the magic props and stood up and said. "But the existence behind him that he served before should have such a level.
of energy.”
Black priests often serve certain lower planes and even some evil beings in the astral plane. The power of these existences varies greatly. The weakest ones are equivalent to the level of demigods, but the top ones are even
Able to stand shoulder to shoulder with powerful gods.
The existence behind this black priest should be a god with medium divine power, so it is normal for the insurance he placed on the cabinet for his black priest to give orthodox priests of the same level a headache.
However, since that existence is mainly powerful in being secretive, it is not very difficult to solve the above problems after it is discovered that it is abnormal. Just ten minutes later, with a sound like glass breaking, Lambert heard from the cabinet.
He took a step back and nodded and said, "Okay, the magic trap above has been eliminated. Let's see what's inside."
