"You are the second person to make such a request to me in the past month."
After a brief moment of astonishment, Angel murmured.
In front of her eyes appeared the squirming Flesh Chunk of Church of Evernight Senior Deacon Pierce Turner, his sincere request and his almost successful plot.
If I hadn't had "Hidden Holy Emblem" at that time, I might have been deceived by him... Angel thought, looking away from Anne's expectant face with difficulty.
Her first reaction was that there was some conspiracy involved.
A Ghost Warship driven by Beyonder Characteristic of Demigod, an ancient battleship that has existed for more than two thousand years and spanned two eras, actually asked yourself to "kill it"?
Is it similar to the one with Pierce? Once I take action on Spirit World, I will fall into some kind of negative state that I can't get rid of, and then I will be trapped by this "Queen Anne's Revenge"...
But she had easily subdued me in the previous battle. If she needed to kill me, she would probably just move her fingers. There was really no need to beat around the bush like this... Angel looked at Anne in front of him, undecided.
And if she wants to force me, she should be able to use certain abilities of "Arbiter" instead of communicating through language like this. This may mean that "Queen Anne's Revenge", or the Anne in front of her, does not have any malicious intentions?
But this view may also be caused by her Beyonder Ability... Wait, will "Arbiter" make other people get close to her instead of voluntarily surrendering to her?
"Emperor Roselle Why did you give that order?"
In order to buy time for his hesitation, Angel asked.
"I thought about this for three years and still didn't understand it, until a message came in the wind, telling me that he had passed away and died in the assassination of the Sun Church and Intis nobles."
Anne replied with a calm tone, but Angel could see a different emotion from those golden eyes, which made her a little suspicious of this person... No, there was some unexplainable relationship between this ship and the time traveler emperor.
But maybe it's just the relationship between the captain and the ship? As an outsider, Angel cannot be sure.
However, since the ship name "Queen Anne's Revenge" is still in use today, and Anne uses this name to refer to herself, it seems that Emperor Roselle should be a very important person in her mind...
"Why did he give you such a ship name?" Angel continued to ask.
This is the name of a pirate ship. Is it really okay to use it on a warship?
"He had thought of several names that I couldn't understand, and he chose 'Hood' among them, but in the end he thought it was unlucky, so he changed it to the current one. He also called me... Battleship Lady at that time, as if he regarded me, the incarnation of Ghost Ship, who usually hides his figure and can only be seen occasionally, as a real person..."
Hood... Sure enough, it was what the great emperor did. Fortunately, he did not choose this name in the end... Angel looked at Anne with a smile on his face and the corners of his mouth turned up, as if he was caught in a beautiful memory, and his heart suddenly trembled.
Could it be that because Roselle died, she wanted to follow the emperor and... well, die for love together? This Ghost Ship is too emotional, hurry up and learn "Blue Avenger"!
Touching the non-existent sweat on his forehead, Angel was just about to change the topic to a lighter topic, when Anne woke up from his memories, walked forward with his feet making a "pattering" sound on the wooden deck, his eyes fixed on her and he said:
"Okay, I know your Spirituality has been restored, and I've told you everything you're interested in. Now, can you fulfill your promise?"
Looking at the girl with an expression of "I'll force you if you don't agree", Angel was silent for a moment and picked up the small dark red metal piece again.
"Don't worry, even if this Ghost Ship dies, I still have a little time to safely send you back to the island, and pay you a thank you reward."
Anne breathed a sigh of relief, flipped her small white right hand, and a delicate card appeared in her palm.
Angel's heartbeat almost stopped.
That is a Tarot Cards.
"This is what Roselle gave me before I left. It is one of the Tarot Cardss he created one hundred and seventy years ago." Anne looked at the card in his hand with some emotion, "Of course, this 'Judgment' is special. Not only does it have the effect of 'Anti-Divination Anti-Prophecy', which prevents anyone from discovering my existence through the above methods, but it also draws a card of his own design. After I leave, it will belong to you. Maybe you can dig out more secrets inside it."
I think the latter reason is the key point... Angel looked at Tarot Cards, who looked like a stick figure with the image of middle-aged Emperor Roselle, and was not sure whether this picture was "Card of Blasphemy".
Judging from the characteristics of "Anti-Divination", it is likely that otherwise, after so many years, the "Card of Blasphemy" that concealed Paths of the Divine would have been discovered long ago, but the card face is the same as the "" I have seen There are differences between "Black Emperor", "Red Priest" and "Demoness", and the name Sequence 0 is not written... Angel thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Anyway, it looks like I can't get away without "Calamity", so I might as well pick up a little more of the emperor's wool. For the sake of fellow time travellers, I hope it's worth the money...
Cheering himself up inwardly, Angel squatted down on the deck, gently pressed "Calamity" Charm onto the polished wooden floor, as if it had just left the factory on a new ship, and looked up at Anne.
The latter's momentary hesitation was replaced by perseverance and determination:
"Do it, thank you."
With a secret sigh, Angel poured Spirituality into Charm and whispered:
"Calamity..."
The deck with a history of more than two thousand years instantly disintegrated and turned into decayed fragments, scattered among the endless Spirit World... This scene did not appear. Angel did not even pour enough Spirituality into it, as if the entire Charm refused her use.
"It... it seems like my Charm doesn't work in Spirit World?"
Angel was a little unwilling to raise his head to face that expectant gaze, and said to himself.
"Why, didn't you use it very smoothly just now?"
The incarnation of Ghost Ship, who was waiting to die, obviously didn't believe it. She took two steps back, pointed at Angel, and said loudly:
"I order you to use the Charm in your hand immediately!"
Following her words, a golden light, like the color of her eyes, emanated from her fingertips and pressed towards Angel. The latter felt waves of powerful power covering her whole body, forcing her to squat down again, pressed towards Charm again, and read:
"Calamity!"
Everything is business as usual.
"Maybe your Spirituality hasn't recovered yet. We can wait. I've been waiting for more than a hundred years and I won't be in a hurry..."
She frowned and murmured, not knowing whether she was confiding to Angel or Persuasion herself.
"This Charm will consume half of my Spirituality. It is definitely enough now... After all, I am just a Sequence 5. I don't know the true source of power of this Charm. Maybe it has various restrictions and cannot be effective in Spirit World."
Angel stood up and looked at the girl whose face turned dark again under the blow of disappointment.
But she doesn't seem as disappointed as I thought?
With a thought in his mind, Angel said tentatively:
"Perhaps after I am promoted to Demigod, this Charm, which is made from my blood and can only be used by me, will have stronger power and even produce effects here."
She specifically mentioned that it could only be used by herself, lest Demigod, on a whim, ask her to directly draw "Calamity" Charm on the ship with blood and try a blood sacrifice.
"I'm afraid I have to wait for many years. Not one of the ten Sequence 5s may be successfully promoted to High Sequence. I might as well try to break away from Spirit World and attract those strong High Sequences, although it will risk becoming a war machine again..."
Shaking his head, Anne didn't have high hopes for this.
"You can try to help me. I have a way to quickly master the power of Potion, and I already know the formula of Sequence 4. This time I came to hunt 'Gazer' to obtain the Potion material. If I can be promoted soon, you will also have the opportunity to fulfill your wish."
This is not an unfounded guess by Angel. She knew nothing about her death at Sequence 7, and then entered the ruined city where "Card of Blasphemy" was hidden after her death at Sequence 6., Sequence 5 can use blood to make "Calamity" Charm. Perhaps after being promoted to High Sequence, this magical ability that allows her to be resurrected many times will be additionally improved?
Hearing this sentence, which was obviously a request, Anne looked at Angel blankly, and after a moment he sneered and said:
"Oh, do you know who was the last person who asked me to help him, claiming that he would repay me in the future, and signed a contract with me?
"It's Roselle Gustav!
"He finally gave this order that made me extremely Affliction!"
"But you don't regret it, do you?" Angel asked, looking at Anne whose voice was getting higher and higher, and whose eyes were getting darker and darker.
The girl was silent.
"Yes, I don't regret it," a smile suddenly broke out on her face, "That was my most unforgettable time since Fourth Epoch."
Roselle, you are really guilty...Angel complained from the bottom of his heart to the emperor who died in a palace conspiracy more than a hundred years ago, and then asked doubtfully:
"Then why are you obsessed with destroying yourself? Because of Emperor Roselle's attitude towards you in his later years, or his ending? That was nearly two hundred years ago, and his daughter is still alive. You may be able to ask her about what happened back then. Of course, if you really want to obtain eternal peace, I will become Demigod..."
"Wait, you said, you said Bernadette is still alive?"
Hua Hua——
The dark sail above the two people danced violently, as if a strong wind was blowing through the windless Spirit World. Below, Anne's expression became extremely excited.
Even when she faced "Calamity" just now, she didn't behave like this... Angel nodded and replied:
"I once met a woman who called herself Bernadette on Backlund's Emperor Roselle Exhibition website. She had long chestnut hair, blue eyes, and a style that was, well, old-fashioned and avant-garde at the same time."
Angel described the appearance of the women she saw in detail. Anne nodded while listening and interrupted her excitedly:
"Yes, that's her. I didn't expect that she would really become the big figure in the mysterious world mentioned in the prophecy, otherwise she wouldn't be alive until now...
"When Roselle brought her to me, she secretly saw me and him discussing the exploration of the Sonia Island plan, and said she wanted to tell her mother..."
I think her view is correct. After all, even I think something is wrong with you... Angel can clearly feel that the other party's mood is much better than before. At least he didn't mention "Calamity" again, and he was secretly relieved.
"So, do you feel like you want to see Bernadette again?" She said in a persuasive way. With the experience of comforting Azik in front of her daughter's tombstone, this kind of thing is not difficult, "How about you let me leave Spirit World, and I can help you find traces of this lady?"
"No."
Anne shook his head and looked at her with his golden eyes.
"It's not enough."
As if he had made up his mind, the "Arbiter" opened his hands, and golden brilliance emerged from his arms, illuminating the dark deck like daylight. Between the light, lines of Ancient Feysac appeared in the void. The handwriting was beautiful, but it exuded an extremely majestic atmosphere.
