A New Host

Sunday morning.

Surrounded by a crowd of admirers, Colonel Holmes saw the Blackthorn emerge from the thick fog and slowly come to a stop a few hundred meters from the Private Harbor.

With a wave of his hand, several small boats that had been prepared beforehand left the shore.

A moment later, the "Blackthorn" came to a stop, and the soldiers who disembarked to report brought everyone a message that sent chills down their spines.

There was no one on the ship!

It was as if a ghost had been riding it!

Colonel Holmes paused for a few seconds, then turned to look at several of his trusted confidants; they immediately understood and instructed the soldiers on the mission to Secrecy.

On the way back, Colonel Holmes instructed his secretary, "Get it to the Factory for modification and get it approved as a newly manufactured warship this year."

"Understood." The secretary nodded slightly, agreeing quite readily and naturally.

Then, after a slight hesitation, he asked:

"Colonel, Jodson..."

Colonel Holmes shook his head:

"Anyway, we'll make a profit, so let's treat it as a normal transaction. There's no need to create trouble for ourselves and provoke this Great Pirate again."

"However, we cannot let him continue to act so arrogantly. We must send a telegram to inform the major churches and our colleagues stationed on other islands about this matter."

The secretary thought for a few seconds and nodded:

"Clear.

"I will personally draft this telegram after I return."

Colonel Holmes grunted in response and said nothing more. He closed his eyes as if dozing, but his thoughts were already drifting back to the previous two days.

He still couldn't understand how the other party had managed to bypass the tight protection of the military and the "Mandated Punishers" and place the Note next to his pillow.

Is "Flower Bow Tie" Jodson Beyonder on the "Apprentice" Pathway?

Meanwhile, Chandler was hiding near a small casino.

A boy with dark brown hair stood in front of the bed, using a broken porcelain spoon to feed his seriously ill mother spoonful by spoonful of the dark, murky medicine.

He placed the extra food he had specially prepared that morning next to her pillow, reminding her not to be stingy with food, as filling her stomach would help her recover faster.

Immediately, the boy closed the door, carried a full basket of straw sandals woven from broad leaves, and went out of the yard to start hawking his wares.

A deep voice suddenly echoed in his mind, "Do you think you can cure your mother with your current meager income?"

"What's it to you!" The boy thought it was some gossipy person who liked to ridicule others, and immediately retorted irritably.

Soon, his body trembled almost imperceptibly.

There wasn't a soul in sight around!

"Who is speaking?!"

The boy swallowed hard, trying to widen his eyes and make a fierce expression.

Then he heard a low chuckle.

The boy couldn't help but shudder, his legs beginning to tremble uncontrollably, because he noticed that the voice seemed to be resounding directly in his head.

The deep voice sounded again:

"Believe in me... and you will be saved..."

"I can train you to be the best businessman... You'll have lots of money... Cure your mother's illness... A two-story Villa with a lawn... A luxurious carriage powered by eight racehorses... Hundreds of years' worth of fine wine... Delicacies from all over the world... Countless beautiful women..."

uuɡu. First update, no typos. You won't see the pinyin suffix in the address input. You can then access the first update site.

"You can have anything you want... at a negligible price... Believe in me, revere me, serve me..."

Hearing the familiar words, the boy was Lightning Strike, suddenly recalling an experience of attending church mass with his mother.

"You, you are Evil God?" he asked in his mind, trembling as he suppressed his fear, while glancing around nervously, afraid that others would discover him.

According to local lore, those targeted by Evil God will not have a good end and will inevitably be Purification!

A low, mocking laugh, seemingly dismissive of any explanation:

"You may call me ' God of Justice ' or ' God of Fairness,' and when you awaken to the truth, you may recite my name in your heart."

You will only bring Catastrophe to everyone!

The boy gritted his teeth. "I will never believe in an Evil God! Once I cure my mother's illness, I will definitely go to Church and ask the God for Purification!"

"Alright, then I'll wait and see." A deep voice chuckled playfully, then fell silent, as if it had never existed.

A small Inn near the docks in Bayam, the "City of Generosity".

Lorry put down his Elvish book, drank a cup of refreshing Black Tea, and stared blankly at the white Ceiling.

After resting for about ten minutes, he went downstairs to treat himself to some delicious food, then returned to his room to take stock of his spoils.

Plans can't keep up with changes.

Lorry now understands this statement more deeply.

His original plan was to kill a few well-known Pirate before returning to Backlund to further replenish his "Lucky Money Bag".

Unexpectedly, while fishing, they caught a Believer an Evil God god, and then used the other party's strange abilities to Judgment most of the Pirate on the ship.

In the end, they sold their ship and their heads to the Military.

With 80% of the Pirate Bounty, plus the "Blackthorn," Lorry earned a total of over 32,000 pounds, bringing his savings to over 43,000 pounds!

This was the wealthiest he had ever been since he transmigrated!

And that's not all!

In addition to the monetary gains, Lorry also seized eight Beyonder Characteristic, including "Bloodblade" Savi, and two Sealed Artifact.

The former mostly belong to the "Warrior" Pathway, with only two exceptions: the "Hunter" and "Provoker" Beyonder Characteristic.

As for the latter, one is the "Eye of Wisdom" which looks like gold-rimmed glasses and can enhance the wearer's observation and logical thinking abilities, while the other is the "Beast Tamer Bracelet" with interlaced blue and green gemstones, which can grant the wearer the abilities to "tame animals," "help animals withstand Potion," and "animal senses."

Their corresponding Sequence are not high, but their capabilities are good.

Considering the negative effects of the two Sealed Artifact, Lorry decided to keep the "Beast Tamer Bracelet" and sell the "Eye of Wisdom" at the Tarot Club.

It was evening at the "Azure Wind" Inn.

Having just returned from the Beyonder Gathering and the Bayam’s Tree Leaf Bar, Klein dismissed Danitz by claiming he had been eavesdropping that evening. Just as he was about to head to the Above the Gray Fog, he suddenly saw Danitz, who had been gone for no more than fifteen minutes, looking dazed and stiffly Door Opening to sit on the Sofa.

Did he run into a ghost when he went out? Klein couldn't help but ask Danitz what was going on, but he was also worried about ruining his image.

At this moment, Danitz glanced at him and spoke in a dreamlike tone:

"You were right before, thank goodness we weren't in a rush to go to Dilinus Island, hahaha, do you even know what that pile of Dogshit shit did?"

"That piece of Dogshit actually killed an entire ship of Pirate, including the First Mate of the flagship ' Vice Admiral Dusk '!"

"The Bounty of 8,700 pounds for ' Bloodblade ' Savi..."
