Chapter 166 Arrival

After   William was teleported back to the beacon placed in the cargo bay, he looked around at the crowded crew in great confusion.

At this time, the entire warehouse was full of enthusiasm. The wooden bar sealing box that I brought to encapsulate the rough ore of Elemental Silver was opened seven or eighty-eight, and the insurance for placing the refined Elemental Silver ingots was opened. There are also several people around the cabinet.

  【Teleport】The sudden electric light and shriek generated when it was activated made many people shrink their necks subconsciously, and everyone's eyes were attracted by the sudden flash of light.

   And after seeing who was coming, the whole cabin fell into a strange silence.

   "What is this doing?"

   After a while, William broke the silence and asked.

He quickly found Captain Hobbs in the crowd, who was standing next to the safe with "Big Steel Cannon" and "Thunderfire" - it seemed that the two half-hearted magic casters were thinking Break the seal on the safe.

   Seeing that no one answered his question, William used the remaining magic power in the holy emblem to flash directly in front of Hobbs. He looked at the lame old man and asked again:

   "What is this doing?"

   Seeing William who appeared in front of him instantly, the expression on Captain Hobbs' face was as terrified as if he had seen a ghost.

   "You... are you still alive?"

   "Why should I die?"

  William asked rhetorically.

   Hearing the other party's question, Hobbs recalled in his mind the fearful expressions on the faces of those high elves when they talked about the legend of the mist ghost.

   He swallowed his saliva without a trace and said:

   "Because... no one can come back alive after being targeted by an apparition in the mist."

   "Then there is now."

  William answered with a shrug, then asked a third time:

   "So, what are you doing?"

   In fact, there is no need to ask this question. Although William was a little confused when he first sent it back, he quickly realized what was going on here.

   But he didn't feel angry about it. Instead, he had the urge to laugh.

   This is really a very real world...

   He sighed in his heart.

   Hearing William's question, Hobbs forced a very embarrassing smile from his face, he hesitated and said:

   "This is how it goes..."

  William nodded with a smile, motioning for the other party to continue.

   didn't mean anything else, he just wanted to hear what reason the other party was going to use to fool him.

   But on the other side, looking at the indifferent smile on William's face, and recalling the strength that the other party had shown earlier, some invisible pressure made Hobbs feel a little hard to breathe.

   "Sorry, we thought you were dead, so..."

  Under this pressure, Hobbes finally bowed his head and admitted.

  William took a step forward, patted the other party's shoulder and asked in a teasing manner:

   "So I just wanted to come over and see how much more I can make this trip?"

  For some reason, cold sweat instantly flowed down Hobbes' forehead.

"Feel sorry…"

   In this regard, William did not ask any further questions.

   He walked to the safe and briefly checked the sealing technique above and said:

   "It's alright, since there was no damage. Then the contract remains the same, and continue to drive in the direction of Avazhou, don't waste time here."

   After he finished speaking, he looked around the crew members around him, and the invisible pressure on his body instantly permeated the entire cabin.

   "Everyone should be busy with whatever they are doing, but remember, don't take out the things you shouldn't take out when you go out."

  In the silent warehouse, William's not-so-loud voice came to everyone's ears very clearly.

   When the crew members heard the words, it was as if they had been granted amnesty.

   The few people standing next to the safe also wanted to go out with them, but one of William's eyes stopped.

   Looking at Hobbs, William pointed behind him and said:

   "The remuneration for this trip will be increased by 30%. How about making some more rooms on the ship?"

  Hobbs had already noticed the five people who had been teleported back with William - four of them fell on their backs to the ground, and they couldn't tell whether they were dead or alive. The remaining woman folded her arms and shivered in the corner, raising her head to glance at them from time to time.

   "Hurry up and get a dry towel for that lady."

   Upon seeing this, Hobbs said to the person beside him, then he turned to look at William and asked with some doubts:

   "Who are they?"

   "Survivors from the previous Imperial warship."

  William replied directly.

   "Three sailors, a magic caster, and a... er, priest of the Church of the Holy Spirit."

   said he pointed to the five people respectively, and then explained:

   "The warship was also attacked by the misty phantom, and only these five people survived on the whole ship."

   "The Holy Spirit is above..."

   The captain opened his mouth slightly, then immediately looked at William and said:

   "So what are you going to do with these people? Let them take the springboard?"

   "If I'm going to do this, there's no need to go to the trouble of bringing them on this ship together."

   William replied.

   "But they're from the Imperial Navy... It's impossible to just let them stay on the ship, right? Or are you planning to send them back?"

  William shook his head again and again, then pulled Hobbs's hand and walked to those people:

   "This man is a magic caster who is proficient in the storm system. When he is healed, you can let him work on your ship. You can give him a nickname like 'Fast Wind' at that time."

  William first pointed to the man full of scars, then pointed to the other three people in sailor suits and continued:

   "And these are ordinary imperial sailors. You will lock them up later. As for what to do at that time, you can see their willingness to cooperate."

  William looked at you with an expression on his face, and finally turned to Diana and said:

"As for the last one... Please arrange a better separate bedroom for her here and treat her as a distinguished guest. Don't worry, she will go to Avazhou with me later, and will not stay on this ship. of."

   "No, please also let me share a room with you."

   Diana suddenly looked at William and said.

"why?"

  William first glanced at Hobbs next to him, and then hurriedly asked.

   Diana looked at the strange expression on William's face and explained with a serious look:

   "As a believer of the Eighth Holy Spirit, I believe in your character even more in an unfamiliar environment."

  William turned his head in embarrassment to look at Captain Hobbs, who was looking at William thoughtfully, before saying:

   "So, that's why you brought them on board?"

   There was a hint of vigilance in his voice, of course, this was not aimed at William, but at those few people. After all, a ship sailing on the sea is equivalent to an isolated island, and the sudden arrival of a few people who were planning to loot him will always make people feel a little uneasy.

"Before, it was just because I wanted to know some things, and I was not used to seeing death. If you think it's troublesome for the other people except this lady, you can wait until Avazhou and leave them all there. After all, this is a your ship."

   William said so.

   Then he continued:

   "Also, let's prepare a separate room for this lady."

  …

   In the end, Captain Hobbs did not let those people go to the springboard.

  The three sailors were temporarily locked in an evacuated storage room, and Hobbs planned to "release" them when they were about to reach the shore. And after the mage who was proficient in storm magic recovered from his injury (it didn't take long with William's help), he was responsible for the work of summoning the wind to accelerate the whalebone under the surveillance of the "big steel cannon". This greatly accelerated the time to the misty port of Ys City in Avazhou.

   As for Diana, after William's persuasion, she finally gave up her insistence on living in the same room as herself.

It's not that William has any concerns about gender, but he always feels that a divine enlightener of the Eighth Holy Spirit, and he is obviously biased towards the divine enlightenment of the other half, sleeping in the same room as himself is always a bad thing. A safe thing, at least an inconvenient thing.

   Even if he doesn't need to sleep, and he is just a clone here.

   In the last few days of the voyage on the Broken Sea, William either tortured or threatened, or he got a lot of information from these survivors.

   Previously, this imperial warship came to perform an **** mission, and the **** object was Diana, the divine enlightener from the Eighth Religion.

   Diana's full name is Diana, or in formal occasions it will be called St. Diana.

She doesn't have a surname, this is because all the divine enlighteners have to give up their surnames after being identified by the priest group to show that they are forever dedicated to the Holy Spirit - this is the same habit as in the past, creating divine enlighteners Occupational accounts are only allowed to type in the first name, because a different name of the Holy Spirit needs to be attached to the last name.

  Then this divine enlightener named Diana was chosen by the so-called Eighth Holy Spirit five years ago.

   At that time, a major epidemic called the "Blood and Tear Plague" broke out in Wanren City, Storm Province, and tens of thousands of people were infected. The local church and the Star Lighthouse were helpless in the face of the plague. At this time, a little maid hired by an old noble family in the city heard a voice. This voice led her to dig out an ancient talisman from the courtyard of the noble house and let her throw the talisman into the well.

   Then someone drank the water from this well and cured their blood and tears plague, and the news that the water in this well can cure the blood and tears plague spread out. Soon the Eighth Religion found the little maid, and after recovering the amulet in the well and confirming that what she said was true, she was quickly certified by the priest group as a new divine enlightener.

After   , after the consecration ceremony presided over by the Patriarch of the Church, she took the amulet to disperse the plague in the entire city.

   "Wait a minute, is that amulet in the shape of an eight-pointed star?"

   Hearing this, William couldn't help but interrupted the "little maid" that was Diana and asked.

   The other party nodded and replied:

   "Yes, the eight-pointed star, but the runes on it are all worn away."

  William went on to ask:

   "Then the noble family you mentioned before was the Quincy family that deals in enchanting jewelry, right?"

  Diana shook her head and said:

   "Although they do have a business of enchanting jewelry, the owner's last name is not Quincy..."

   "Then is his family's mansion in Fengya District of Wanren City, built against a huge obsidian?"

  William interrupted the other party again and asked.

  Diana nodded, looking at William with a strange expression.

  William didn't pay attention to the other party's strange expression, but rubbed his forehead and fell into contemplation.

   Also, it is indeed difficult for a family to inherit a complete inheritance for more than a thousand years. But since the location is not wrong, it is estimated that it is what I think.

   First of all about that blood and tear plague, he knew what it was.

  Iron-hearted widow who holds the numbness, silence, and indifference among the Void Kings. He first created this thing called the Blood and Tears Plague in the Kingdom of Twilight. Its intention is to make people shed all tears in this life once, and no longer need sadness from now on.

  By the way, He also created a corresponding plague of laughter at the beginning, which was intended to make all the infected people laugh out of the joy of their lives at one time. For this reason, the mad fool also had a lot of friction with Him.

   And referring to the disaster calendar, five years ago was indeed the year of the iron heart of the other party's rotation.

   And that talisman William is more familiar.

   That is a side quest to help the richest family in Wanren City to retrieve the lost family heirloom - an eight-pointed star amulet. It is said that as long as this talisman is worn around the neck of their head, the family will not fall. At that time, during the exploration of that mission, William discovered that the family had always employed child labor, squeezing the casters and enchanters. Therefore, at the time of the final decision, William chose to make a fake amulet to return it, and kept the real amulet for himself.

   This is mainly based on his own simple moral concept and a little obsession with wishing to collect all the achievements.

   But in other words, that amulet was made by William himself.

   But the problem also comes, the effect of that amulet in the game is to increase the luck value of the wearer. Including the fake made by oneself, it also has the effect of increasing the wearer's luck when enchanting.

   This and the effect of expelling the blood and tears plague can be said to be incomparable.

   Even if it is assumed that because he was enshrined as the Eighth Holy Spirit, all the items he had left behind became holy relics, then healing the plague should not be the responsibility of this Eighth Holy Spirit "Hermit".

The gods of this world, except for the philosophical **** "Ma" worshipped by the Tacoma sect, there is no god—whether it is the Holy Spirit or the king of nothingness, no **** is omnipotent, and their power can only be found in their own Effective within the realm.

   To expel or cure the plague of blood and tears, it should be the domain of authority of the Holy Spirit "Mother" or the Holy Spirit "Lady".

   The authority of the Holy Spirit "Hermit", judging from William's previous battle with the phantom of Terra, should have something to do with the essence of spells and areas such as mirror resonance.

   Before William could ask any more questions, there was a sudden turbulence in the entire cabin. William quickly stabilized Diana, who almost fell, and then opened the door.

   Captain Hobbs said before that he should be able to see the coastline today, and the movement just now seems to be caused by the emergency anchoring of the ship.

   And just as William opened the door, he almost ran into the second mate of the Whalebone head-on.

   At this moment, the other party was panting, and it looked like he was rushing all the way.

The second mate first glanced at Diana in the room, and then said to William:

   "Sorry to interrupt your appointment, but there's something going on over there that needs you to take a look."

   Ignoring the first half of the other party's sentence, William immediately asked:

   "Can you see Misty Harbor in Ys City now?"

   The second mate nodded and said:

   "But there seems to be something wrong now. The flags of the Windsong Family in Ys City have been taken down, and now the flags of the Blood Blade Family are hanging on the dock."

   "And the whole pier is under martial law."

   As soon as he finished speaking, another crew member hurried over and said:

   "Several elf longships came to us with the banner of the Blood Blade family."
