Chapter 149: Fame spreads far and wide, causing chaos in the Islands! Once Duke Nova died and witnessed such a horrific scene, the already demoralized sailors naturally lost their desire to resist. However, due to the large number of people and ships, the process of cleaning the battlefield and counting the loot was much more arduous than Sean expected. The good news is. Due to the forbidden spell cast by Duke Nova before his death, most of the mystics on the "Blood Duke" fleet were killed or injured, and the resistance to clearing the ships was reduced again. The bad news is. Shane had broken up the ship too hard before, coupled with the aftermath of his battle with Duke Nova and the storm that had not calmed down, the "Blood Duke" was inevitably sinking into the depths of the sea. This is all money! Such a big ship, I don’t know how many gold dragon coins it can sell. Looking at the [Blood Duke] being gradually submerged by the sea water, Xia En's heart was bleeding.
Although salvagers and [deep-sea submersibles] could be sent to salvage the sunken ship, the loss of the ship alone made him so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe. Now, the [Epic]-level [Blood Power] seems to have gotten rid of this restriction? 【Description: The scepter of the lost Kingdom of Turin was stained with blood due to the contamination of special secret power. 】 I have to say that Duke Nova is worthy of being a third-level Mystic Pathfinder, and he has brought quite a lot of experience to Xia En. Effect 2: Spell Power—When holding the scepter, the power, effect, and range of the spells cast will be moderately improved! 】 【Effect 3: Cruelty - This scepter is contaminated, and the character of the person who comes into contact with the scepter will become more irritable and violent. 】 But looking at the third negative effect, Xia En is not worried about letting Joey or other men use it. He has tested it before and found that the control ability of the [Precious] quality [Blood Power] is not enough to support the flight of blood wings. 【Type: Relic】 【Blood Royal Power】 “Key? Key to what door?” One of them is the **** scepter. 【Description: The power of blood in your body has grown again! 】 In fact, it is the reference to “key” in the description. But after seeing its three effects, Xia En felt a bit tasteless. With the number and loyalty of his crew, there is no need to rely on the authority brought by this scepter. Furthermore, because of her bloodline, the talent [Blood Power] has been upgraded again. 【The taste of power is fascinating. 】 【Due to the effect of "Dragon Blood Secret", you can use blood energy to create shapes without losing blood! 】
Fortunately, after the "Duke Nova Candle" burned out, Shane gained a lot of benefits from her wreckage. And every time you shape the wings, you have to consume blood, which is always a bit outweighing the gains. Xia En was thinking randomly without any sympathy in his heart. 【Ship Spirit Level: LV4 (40%)】 Since you have chosen this power, you must naturally bear its price. 【Talent: Blood Power (Precious) → (Epic)! 】 The quality of "epic" is enough to show that it is extraordinary. “So, Duke Nova’s cruel character is also related to this scepter?” What concerns him more... Xia En’s focus instantly went astray. “Duke Nova, why is he called a Duke?” 【Armor, wings, shields, weapons...the strength after shaping depends on your physique and the total amount of blood invested. 】 This scepter may also be the key to a certain door, right? 】 “Since it is the scepter of the kingdom, could it be the door of some treasure house?” Suddenly, Xia En thought of something that he had ignored for a long time. “In other words, I can fly now?” The only useful thing is to enhance the effect of the spell, making it a good staff. However, now is not the time to test new abilities. We haven’t finished touching the corpse yet! Soon, Xia En found two more good things. For a long time, Sean and the residents of the island have called the island Duke Island as a matter of course. The governor of the island is Duke Nova, but they have never thought about the reason behind it. Effect 1: Authority—the majesty of the ancient king still remains on this scepter. 】 This question sounds outrageous at first, but upon closer consideration, it reveals certain information. 【Quality: Epic】 【Those who hold a scepter will have their majesty strengthened, and their words and orders will be more convincing. 】 As far as Shane knows. The vampires in this world are not divided into levels according to titles such as "Viscount" and "Earl", but are called according to several levels of race. In the Federation of the Seven Seas, there has also been no such thing as a title for a long time. Then where does this "Duke" come from?
“Duke…Kingdom of Turin…scepter?” Xia En had a guess in his mind. The name of the Duke may come from the lost kingdom of Turin. Possibly for various reasons, the scepter of the King of Turin fell into the hands of the ducal family and has been passed down from generation to generation until today. The possibility of this guess coming true is not low. But Xia En knew too little information. He only knew the name "Kingdom of Turin", and it was definitely unrealistic to delve deeper into it. “Leave the scepter in the space ring for a while first.” “If there are no clues, it’s not a bad idea to sell it for money. It’s an epic relic after all!” Speaking of space rings, we have to mention another harvest of Xia En. 【Ring of Apocalypse (Platinum)】 This space ring worn by Duke Nova is also produced by [Apocalypse Chamber of Commerce], but the quality is two levels higher than the "silver" that Sean had before. It is precisely because of its extremely high quality that it was not destroyed by the flames ignited by hidden mines. After using mental power to break through the original restrictions. Xia En opened it and was stunned. The space in this ring is extremely spacious, more than dozens of times that of Sean's. The thing that makes people unable to take their eyes away the most is the golden mountain of gold coins! At least a thousand gold dragon coins are lying there peacefully, exuding the charm of money. Xia En had a deal with the Sea Clan and thought he was no longer poor, but the wealth in this space ring still made his heart beat fast and he was very excited. Except for gold coins. The ring also contains a considerable amount of potion materials, forbidden relics, rare metals... Hand gold, mithril...even the [Steam Heart] that Xia En needs, there are several of them! With this wave of harvest, the materials required for strengthening have been directly increased to more than 300%! “Get rich, get rich!” Xia En’s face was filled with the joy of the harvest. At this time, he suddenly understood the psychology of those pirates very well. The taste of such a profit-free business was really unstoppable. The golden belt that kills people and sets them on fire! Moreover, this [Ring of Apocalypse] is not all the harvest, the remaining four **** ships, as well as the survivors and property on the [Blood Duke] will all become Shane's trophies! “Speaking of which, since Duke Nova is dead, the [Blood Duke] has also sunk..."
“Isn’t there nothing that can hinder me on the Duke’s Island?” Shane has no grudges against the people on Duke Island in general. But he knew that there were indeed many cronies of Duke Nova on Duke Island, and they might one day take revenge on him. On the other hand, it was clear that the Duke of Nova would not take all his property with him. There is probably her treasury on Duke Island! Before the Federation notices and sends a new consul, this is the best opportunity to raid Duke Island! "Not to be missed." Xia En's eyes flashed with a cold light and he murmured to himself. He has not forgotten that more than ten islands including Duke Island have listed him as a bounty target. Since they regard themselves as pirates, they have no choice but to do things that pirates would do. This action is also a warning and a statement. Tell those islands with vampire forces that revenge from the [Black Swan] is coming! … … half a month later. Lousin Islands. —As you can see from the name, this archipelago is different from ordinary islands. Simply put, this is an island that belongs to pirates! This archipelago has no consul of its own and is not under the jurisdiction of the Federation. Every day, pirate ships of all sizes come to this archipelago for their own purposes, whether for trading, supplies, or inquiring about information. They brought prosperity as well as chaos. In this lawless island, the law of the jungle of the weak and the strong is vividly displayed. Sin abounds and chaos continues. This is also the origin of the name of the islands. At this moment, in the largest [Greedy Tavern] on the island. The lights are brightly lit and the crowds are bustling. Different from other taverns, the interior environment of this tavern is surprisingly neat. Poor smells such as sweat, rouge, and alcohol are all covered up by the incense sprayed from the steam pipes. Even the pirates, who have always been rude and violent, did not dare to be overly showy. They just talked with neither high nor short voices, as if they were afraid of something.
Correspondingly, the girls here are of extremely high quality, with beautiful looks and good figures, and they also wear a special uniform. It seems to be exposed but not exposed, catching people's attention. Seeing this, some unsophisticated pirates were almost drooling. Rod, the captain of the pirate ship Zephyr, also belongs to this group of people. Logically speaking, as a second-level mystic, Rhodes is considered the number one figure in the offshore area and can avoid many salvage ships. But in the Luansi Islands, which is already far away from the sea, he is still a little shrimp, and even seems a little reserved in this strange atmosphere. However, Rhodes had his own way of resolving this restraint. His eyes scanned the crowd and quickly locked onto a young man drinking at the bar. This young man has light blond hair and a handsome appearance, which makes people instinctively like him. Judging from his age and aura, he should be a secret pather with similar strength to himself. "Hey guy." Rhodes smiled and said hello, and sat down next to the young man naturally: "It seems that this is your first time coming to the Sin Islands? Let's have a drink together?" The young man glanced at him while eating the side dishes on the plate, but showed no resistance. “The sea has been really uneasy recently, and many islands are very noisy, so I have no choice but to come to Luosui Islands to supply supplies.” Rhodes asked the bartender for a glass of wine, and then said in a slightly complaining tone: "There are many more pirates coming to the Sin Islands than usual." “It’s all the fault of that audacious lunatic!” The young man chewed the food in his mouth and asked, "Who are you talking about?" “A captain nicknamed ‘Black Swan’.” The young man had a strange expression: "What black swan?" “Legend has it that the black swan is an animal that should not have appeared.” “And when it breaks into people’s eyes, it will bring about a series of terrible chain reactions.” Rod took a sip of wine to moisten his throat: "Of course, what I want to talk about is the captain himself." “Honestly, although he is a lunatic, I really think he is quite fierce.” The strange look on the young man's face became even worse, but he did not forget to continue eating the dishes he ordered: "Do you know him?" Rhodes looked around and lowered his voice: "Do you know about the [Blood Moon Night] two months ago?" “It is said that this black swan kidnapped an important person on Silver Moon Island, causing the truth about [Blood Moon Night] to be exposed.” “Then, more than a dozen islands including Silver Moon Island and Duke Island jointly wanted his ship.” “Among them, the governor of Duke Island happened to meet him at sea, forcing him into the foggy sea all the way, and even squatted outside the fog for a long time.”
“Guess what?” The young man responded cooperatively: "What's going on?" “The Black Swan had an adventure in the foggy sea, and its strength increased by leaps and bounds. Not only did it sink the [Blood Duke] on Duke Island, it also killed the consul!” Rhodes became more and more excited as he talked: "This is not over yet, Black Swan also brought a ship to Duke Island, and raided her lair on the island!" “Not only that, later, he also went to Silver Moon Island and fought directly at the castle of Silver Moon Island.” “In other words, the [Viper] on Silver Moon Island happened to be out salvaging, otherwise it would have been sunk by him!” “We attacked two islands one after another within half a month. Do you think it’s awesome or not?” Before the young man could reply, another pirate sitting next to him also interjected: "That's so awesome!" “That guy also declared in public on Silver Moon Island that he would come to every island where he was wanted and pay back double the amount.” “Because of this, many islands have recently stopped letting us pirates get close.” “I have never seen such a courageous person. Is he really not afraid of being targeted by the federal navy?” Perhaps this topic is indeed very popular among pirates. Pirates are joining the chat one after another. “I also heard that his [Black Swan] is not actually a ship at all, but a behemoth from the deep sea that is usually disguised as a ship.” “The crew of the Black Swan ship are also weird. They seem to have a giant, a sea monster, a black knight, and a vampire girl kidnapped from Silver Moon Island.” "There are rumors that the vampire girl fell in love with him and eloped with him in order to get rid of the shackles of the family." “Yo, it’s quite romantic?” Rhodes gossiped: "But how did I hear that all those crew members are his women?" Seeing that the topic was starting to go astray, the young man at the bar was speechless as he ate side dishes and drank a small drink, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him. at this time. Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd. “Mr. Heller is here!” I saw a tall, slim man with a gentle manner walking not far away. He has messy black hair like seaweed, a strange black tattoo that looks like some kind of mollusk carved on his cheek, and he wears an old dress. It makes people feel like a doctor or a gentleman. “Mr. Heller…” All the pirates quickly looked at him with awe and said hello to him. The reason is simple, this person is the real owner of [Greedy Bar].
At this moment, Heller cast his gaze at the young man at the bar. (End of this chapter)
