His subordinates jumped into the sea and fled. Although Captain Reed was cursing them for being disloyal in his heart, he could not run away with them.
After being enraged, Cassandra focused all her attention on Reed.
Reed seized the opportunity. He held the cross in his hand and stabbed it into Cassandra's bones like a dagger. Unfortunately, it was useless! This was because the cross in his hand only had the appearance.
Many people did not understand that the reason why the cross could exorcise evil was not because of its appearance but because of the holy power it contained! It was not like a cross made of two pieces of wood could produce the power of holy light out of thin air. Instead, only a cross blessed with holy power could work.
On this point, many people were fooled by the Church. Although many people would not encounter evil beings in their entire lives, once they did, this kind of understanding would harm them instead.
The cross stabbed into Cassandra's body, but it did not have the expected effect. Instead, Cassandra grabbed Reed's hand, and the power of frost spread and froze his entire arm.
Reid was a ruthless person. Seeing the frost continue to spread to his body, he made a prompt decision. He chopped off his arm with his left hand and escaped Cassandra's control.
In intense pain, he subconsciously swung the knife in his hand and swept it at Cassandra. In the end, it worked, and several of the ribs on Cassandra's abdomen were broken.
Although she could not feel the pain, Cassandra still subconsciously retreated a distance.
After discovering that physical attacks were effective, Reed perked up. He gritted his teeth and took a step forward, wanting to chase after Cassandra and slash.
In the sky, Roy finally could not stand it anymore. Although Cassandra was a lich, this was her first real battle after all. Roy wanted to train her, but he found that she was full of mistakes. As an undead, what was there to be afraid of breaking a few bones?
On the other hand, the pirate captain seemed to have rich combat experience and actually seized the opportunity to counterattack, forcing Cassandra to panic and even subconsciously withdraw her frost power.
"Fat Tiger, go down and help her!" Roy said to Fat Tiger, who was also flying beside him.
Fat Tiger howled and swooped down toward the deck.
He had already realized that this undead was not as difficult to deal with as he had imagined. As long as he could kill her here, his prestige on this ship would immediately soar. Moreover, he would have more capital to brag about. As long as people mentioned him, they would mention his title of 'Undead Killer'. Perhaps he could even use this opportunity to become an existence comparable to the Nine Pirate Lords.
Just like the Four Heavenly Kings had five, the Nine Great Pirate Kings had ten. Wasn't this normal?
Just as Reid was feeling elated, the pirate ship suddenly shook violently. With a thud, it was as if something huge had landed on the deck behind him, causing the entire ship to sink as if it was about to be pressed into the sea.
When Reid turned around to see what was going on, his entire body froze.
It was not because of Cassandra's frost power, but because after seeing what was falling behind him, all the cells in his body were transmitting strong danger signals to his brain.
He did not dare to move. He really did not dare to move now! Because behind him, a huge Cerberus was glaring at him!
Fat Tiger did not do anything, but his three heads looked at Reid with threatening gazes. The one who really dealt Reid a fatal blow was Cassandra, who had caught her breath. She seemed a little embarrassed because she felt that she had been forced into this state by a pirate. If this continued, how could she complete her revenge?
Therefore, Cassandra made a move. She suddenly opened her hands, and a strong cold aura erupted from under Reid's feet, freezing him in an instant.
It seemed that after this battle, she had finally comprehended a bit of the technique of using the Power of Frost.
However, although Reid was frozen, the temperature of the frozen aura was not too low, so he was still conscious. He looked at the hellhound in front of him through the ice and felt his life force being sucked away by the skeleton behind him. As he was dying, he suddenly felt like he understood something.
"The storm last night seems to have opened the Gates of Hell …"
Reid died, and his disloyal subordinates did not manage to escape far because Roy took action.
Flying in the air, Roy caught the pirates from the sea one by one and threw them back onto the pirate ship for Cassandra to identify.
Cassandra checked the ears of these pirates one by one and found that they were not missing. Although one of the pirates had a broken ear, it was because the enemy had torn off the earrings he was wearing during the battle.
Cassandra's enemies were not on this pirate ship.
The pirates were already trembling in fear. Not only had the undead appeared, but even demons and hellhounds had appeared. The pirates even thought that their ship had barged into the devil's sea because of the storm last night.
Although they were not Cassandra's targets of revenge, Roy did not let them go. Although it was the Caribbean world, there were basically no innocent people who could be pirates. Roy threw these pirates to Cassandra and let her absorb the life force of these pirates to strengthen her magic power. Since Roy planned to let Cassandra complete her revenge herself, it was natural to strengthen her.
Among all the pirates, Roy only left the youngest one.
Roy threw the teenager into a lifeboat and gave him three days' worth of food. Then he said to him, "Kid, I'll let you go, but there's a message that you have to help me convey!"
The boy was trembling all over, but he still nodded hurriedly at Roy's words, afraid that the demon in front of him would change his mind if he was a second slower.
"I'm looking for a group of pirates. I don't know their names, but among them, there's a guy who's missing an ear!" Roy pointed at Cassandra. "They killed a pitiful person earlier, and now the vengeful soul is back for them! Before we find these pirates, our revenge won't stop. We'll kill all the pirates we encounter! "
The boy nodded, indicating that he had heard everything clearly. Only then did Roy let him go …
The youth rowed the small boat and tried his best to get away from the pirate ship. But before he could row far, he suddenly saw countless black ice blocks spreading on the ship he had stayed on. Soon, the entire ship was wrapped in a thick layer of ice!
There were no longer any living people on this ship, and Roy did not hesitate to commandeer it. He used his magic power to freeze the entire ship, making the fragile ship abnormally strong.
The next time he encountered pirates, he did not need to let Cassandra wait on the surface of the sea. Instead, he could directly use this ice ship to crash into them!
Under the sun, the black icicles looked so ferocious. The black cold air permeated the ship and enveloped the entire hull, adding an endless sense of mystery to the entire ship. Even if the youth who left just looked at it from afar, he felt a chill run down his spine. He secretly swore in his heart that if he could escape with his life this time, he would never be a pirate again! This line of work did not have the romance and adventure he had imagined at all. There was only extreme danger and fear …
… …
News spread very slowly on the sea.
By the time rumors about the Frozen Ghost Ship began to spread among the pirates, almost a month had passed.
In the past month or so, several pirate ships had been attacked by the "Frozen Ghost Ship". Without exception, all that was left at the location of the attack were countless broken ship wreckages, as well as dried corpses floating on the surface of the sea …
The pirates were in a state of panic. Although there were countless legends in the sea, the legend this time was not one that had countless versions and could not be distinguished between the real and the fake.
This was because all the witnesses and survivors were unanimous in their descriptions.
In Tortuga Port, in taverns of all sizes, the guests were discussing this matter.
"Do you know? That undead in a robe is called a lich! "
"She's a vengeful undead who resurrected with the power of a demon!"
"That demon is the most terrifying because hellhounds and liches are his servants!"
"If that lich can't complete her revenge, that demon won't return to Hell!"
"Demons can fly, and no one can avoid them on the sea. They can always find a target!"
"It's troublesome now. With this Frozen Ghost Ship, our pirate ships don't dare to go out at all …"
"Ours too. We can only stay in the port …"
"This isn't safe. Although they're at sea now, who says they can't go ashore?"
"Damn it, what kind of pirate group is that murderous pirate group? They actually caused such a big trouble. If we know who they are, we'll capture them and give them to the demon and the lich! "
"Shut up! Whose side are you on? Although those pirates are in the wrong, they're humans like us. You actually want to give your compatriots to the demon? "
"Sh * t! It's easy to talk. If you're so capable, why don't you get rid of that ghost ship?! Aren't you still hiding in this port? Bah! Coward! "
"How dare you scold me?! Watch my fist! "
In the taverns of Tortuga Port, it was normal for people to fight at the slightest disagreement. The pirates who were arguing quickly fought again …
Amidst the chaos, someone suddenly barged into the tavern from outside and shouted while panting, "There's good news!"
For a moment, all the people who were fighting stopped and looked at the intruder.
The person quickly explained, "I heard that a Pirate King plans to deal with this Frozen Ghost Ship …"
