Darkwill Joins the Crew

Beyonder Characteristic tainted by the aura of the True Creator?

Where did Klein get it?

Moreover, judging from his description in the letter, he seems to care a lot about this matter; does he really need that Characteristic...?

To others, the aura of evil gods is a deadly contamination, but he has the protection of that Phantom Tide, which can isolate him from these influences. It is precisely because of this Tide that he has been able to resist the spiritual invasion of various evil gods and maintain his true nature on the mad path of the "Secrets Suppliant".

Klein had witnessed his journey and could surely guess that he possessed a special ability to resist evil gods, which was why he wrote to inquire.

However, he had never cleansed himself of the spiritual pollution of the True Creator before, and he was unsure how to do it, let alone whether it would be effective. Moreover, this process would expose his Golden Finger to Klein.

"Forget it," Luther thought. "I'll just stall for time. If he really has no other choice, I'll figure something out."

"Boom!"

With a sudden burst of flame from his palm, he burned the letter to ashes.

The Moon outside the window had lost its blood-red hue and returned to its normal crimson color. Luther sat in his chair, staring at the night sky in thought for a while.

He gradually made a few decisions:

First, I really need to go to the Governor's Mansion in Bayam. After all, the whereabouts of "Red-haired Helene" are related to "Vice Admiral of Ailment" Tracy, who is directly connected to the Demoness Sect. My feud with the Demoness is not over yet.

Furthermore, the personnel from MI9 also come from Bayam, and their situation is equally noteworthy.

Secondly, since he was going to Bayam, he might as well accept the commission from the Life School of Thought. Coincidentally, he was recently planning to acquire an even more useful Beyonder Item, so he could use that as his reward.

Moreover, he currently possesses a warship, which he can even disguise as a naval vessel to approach the port...

With that thought in mind, Luther took out paper and pen and quickly wrote a letter to Klein:

[I'll head to Bayam as soon as possible. Wait for me there for a few days. As for the specific action plan, we'll discuss it in detail after we make contact. Regarding the contamination in the Beyonder Characteristic, I'm not sure if it can be removed. You can try other methods first, and if that fails, then give it to me.]

After writing and sealing the letter, he first placed Luna in another room before summoning Klein's messenger.

In the howling cold wind, the tall woman appeared. Her four heads scanned the room but found no trace of the black cat, so they continued with their tasks. One head bit the envelope, another bit the Coin Luther had given her, and then disappeared.

Nothing happened that night.

The next morning, Luther went out early and found his first mate Anderson, in a bar.

"Captain?"

Anderson looked like he'd been drinking all night; although he reeked of alcohol, he seemed perfectly sober. He opened his eyes immediately after Luther called to him.

"Have the crew assemble; we're setting off today."

Where to go?

Anderson asked, somewhat surprised.

I just arrived on the island and haven't even had a proper vacation yet, why am I leaving so suddenly...? Did I drink too much and sleep through the whole day?

"Go to Bayam."

Luther stated firmly, "Gather your men as soon as possible and wait for me at the port."

"OK."

Seeing his serious expression, Anderson had no choice but to get up. The key issue was that he didn't know where the Sailor had gone either, so he could only find the Sailor first and then contact them one by one.

Luther watched him leave, then walked out of the bar himself and quickly went to the foot of the bell tower of the Saint Draco Cathedral.

Knock knock.

He knocked on the door of the small room beneath the clock tower.

"It's you?"

The person who Door Opening trembled upon seeing him. It was indeed Darkwill, whose owl was perched on the windowsill, secretly observing everything.

Luther ignored Darkwill and stepped into the house, where he met Councilor Ricciardo, who was sitting in a chair waiting for his response.

"Your Excellency, I intend to accept the request from yesterday."

He didn't waste time on pleasantries and went straight to the point.

"I'm very happy to hear this news."

Ricciardo chuckled, "Have you decided what kind of payment you want?"

"I need a powerful Beyonder Item, either with great strength or good support capabilities."

Luther had already considered this and immediately spoke.

"Sure."

Councilor Ricciardo nodded, unsurprised, and then said, "Please bring out that Revolver."

Revolver?

Oh, he must have meant "Lucky Roulette".

After understanding Ricciardo's meaning, Luther took out the silver-white Revolver from his robe. Luther had originally stored it in the illusory sea, but considering that the Chairman the "Life School of Thought" had left a mark on it, which might help persuade these people, he specifically brought it to reality before landing on the island.

"Yes, I was right."

Ricciardo took the Revolver, examining it closely, lingering especially on the interlocking emblem. "This item was crafted by 'Lucky One,' Sequence 7 from the 'Monster' Pathway. It possesses the Precision Shooting of 'The Robot' and the Luck of 'Lucky One'..."

Because it's from the same Pathway, your Chairman can take control of it and use it to shoot that Devil Demigod.

Luther had already guessed what was going on, so he wasn't surprised; he was just curious about what the other party wanted to do.

"Leave it to me for now."

Ricciardo chuckled, placing the silver Revolver on his lap, "When you reach Bayam, it will be back in your hands... in a brand new form."

A completely new look?

What do you mean? Do you want me to upgrade my weapon?

The other party's answer was as cryptic as ever. Luther wanted to ask more, but he felt that even if he did, the other party wouldn't give a proper answer.

Anyway, he promised that if he couldn't give it to me by the agreed time, or if it didn't meet my expectations, I would simply abandon the commission...

"I see,"

Luther nodded. "Then I'll be off."

"Please wait a moment, I've arranged a companion for you."

Ricciardo chuckled, gesturing to the Fat Apothecary beside him, "Let Darkwill come with you too. He's a good Apothecary and should be able to help you on your voyage at sea."

"Huh? Me?"

Before Luther could react, Darkwill jumped up. "Councilor Your Excellency, what you told me before about my Fate," was this it?

"Good."

Ricciardo smiled in response. "Like I said before, your coming here isn't without reason."

So my purpose is to be a doctor for a bunch of pirates... Darkwill grinned, wanting to say something sarcastic, but considering the other party's Demigod status, he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
