After calming down and thinking about it carefully, Roy realized that he seemed to have made a mistake.
He should not be Jack Sparrow's other trading partner, but his only trading partner!
The truth was that Jack Sparrow had already looked for Davy Jones once, and he looked for Davy Jones to get Davy Jones to salvage the Black Pearl that had sunk to the bottom of the sea! For this transaction, Jack Sparrow had already signed a contract with Davy Jones. They had agreed that after Jack Sparrow was the captain of the Black Pearl for thirteen years, he would serve hard labor on the Flying Dutchman.
When he signed the contract, Jack Sparrow probably didn't think too much about it. But what he didn't expect was that after the Black Pearl was salvaged, Jack Sparrow only served as its captain for two years before he was betrayed by Barbossa.
Over the years, the captain of the Black Pearl had always been Barbossa, and Barbossa had relied on the Black Pearl's superhuman speed to plunder in the Caribbean Sea. Jack Sparrow could not take this lying down and had been looking for an opportunity to snatch the Black Pearl back.
Roy had thought that he was another trading partner of Jack Sparrow, but that was not the case. As time passed, the agreement between Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones was getting shorter and shorter. If Jack Sparrow dared to look for Davy Jones to help him snatch back the ship at this time, not to mention whether Davy Jones would help him a second time, even if he did, he would probably detain Jack Sparrow first in order for him to fulfill the agreement!
It had to be known that Davy Jones could only go ashore once every ten years because he was in charge of the Flying Dutchman. If Jack Sparrow wanted to go back on his word and not fulfill the contract, he should not look for Davy Jones at this time.
Since he could not look for Davy Jones, Jack Sparrow could only think of a way to snatch back the Black Pearl himself.
But if Roy's guess was not wrong, Barbossa and the others were already under the undying curse of the Aztec gold coins and had become neither human nor ghost. For a long time, Barbossa and the crew of the Black Pearl would run back and forth to search for the Aztec gold coins scattered all over the place to remove the curse.
Roy felt that Jack Sparrow definitely knew a little about the current situation of Barbossa and the others. Facing these cursed traitors, Jack Sparrow probably could not think of any good solutions, so after hearing the news of Roy, the demon, he thought of a way to come to him.
If Roy did not help him, then Jack Sparrow could only continue to wander around. It would probably take a long time until he found Elizabeth in Port Royal, who had an Aztec gold coin, to counterattack Barbossa and the others …
After figuring this out, Roy immediately understood that Jack Sparrow was actually begging him, but he did not necessarily need Jack Sparrow.
Although his compass was magical, he had already been inspired. He could consume his souls to create a similar tool through the system to find those murderers and pirates.
Therefore, Roy shook his head. "No! Your price isn't high enough! "
Yes, the deal that Jack Sparrow mentioned was dispensable to Roy. To Roy, after harvesting the souls of the pirates, he could find those pirates at any time and help Cassandra complete her first revenge target.
"My price isn't high enough?" Jack Sparrow was stunned when he heard this. "I'm just a wandering pirate with nothing now. What else do you want? Don't tell me you want my soul like Davy Jones? "
Roy glanced at him. "What do I want your soul for? There's nothing special about your soul! "
Yes, in Roy's opinion, although Jack Sparrow was an important figure in this world, his soul was actually no different from others.
Ever since he killed Van Helsing in the Van Helsing world for the first time, Roy had understood that these fantasy worlds were actually parallel worlds. The history of these worlds was not unchangeable, and the so-called protagonists were nothing more than special characters in a certain period. It was very rare for someone like Van Helsing to be an incarnation of Gabriel.
Moreover, with Jack Sparrow's character, since he had mentioned his soul, it meant that he had long thought about going back on his word. Otherwise, how could a person who had not completely fallen take the initiative to mention trading his soul with a demon?
"I'm so sad to hear you say that!" Jack Sparrow said, "I originally thought that Captain Jack Sparrow's soul might be worth a little more … Alright, then what do you want?"
"What I want?" Roy could not help but look at Cassandra. Then he stretched out his claws and slowly clenched them one by one in front of Jack Sparrow. He said coldly, "What I want is the world's fear of me! I want them to know that my existence represents the existence of the Abyss of Hell! When people commit unforgivable crimes, the gates of Hell will open to them! And I, Demon Osiris, am the judge of the Abyss of Hell! "
Although these words sounded a little chuunibyou, they were indeed from the bottom of Roy's heart. After hearing Roy's words, Jack Sparrow was stunned. The dark circles under his eyes made his current expression look rather comical.
"Wait, wait a minute!" Jack Sparrow said carefully. "Are you sure you're a demon and not an angel?"
"Is there a difference between angels and demons?" Roy glanced at him. "Have you ever thought about why there are demons in this world? Good and evil are two sides of the same coin. Angels also blow their horns to destroy the world, so why can't demons save the world? Without destruction, how can there be new life? The existence of Heaven is to guide the good of the world, and the existence of Hell is to warn the evil of the world. Is there anything wrong with that? "
Jack Sparrow was dumbfounded, and so was Cassandra, but no one could see through her dullness.
However, at this moment, just as Roy said this, the fog lingering around the Frozen Ghost Ship quietly dissipated. The sunlight shone down, but it did not feel poisonous at all. Instead, it felt very gentle. The surrounding sea was strangely calm, and there was not even the slightest movement in the air. The entire sea was as quiet as a mirror, as though the entire world had stopped at this moment.
In this strange silence, Roy felt as though there was a voice whispering something in his ear. But no matter how hard he tried to listen, he still could not hear it clearly and did not know what this whispering voice was saying to him.
It was not just a whisper. Roy also felt something warm enveloping his entire body. This warm feeling was neither the sea breeze nor the sun, nor was it magic power or aura. Roy could not tell what it was.
This strange situation that seemed to have stopped time lasted for an unknown period of time. Perhaps a few minutes, or perhaps it was just an instant. When Roy returned to his senses, he found that the air was flowing again, and the sea was rippling slightly. The whispers had disappeared, and the warm feeling enveloping his entire body had disappeared.
Cassandra moved again. She slowly knelt in front of Roy and said, "Your Excellency, thank you for your guidance!"
Although Jack Sparrow was not like Cassandra, he was not as sloppy as usual. He seriously thought about what Roy said and said, "Okay, perhaps what I heard from the demon's mouth is much more real than what I heard from the church …"
Roy did not care about what the two of them were talking about. He was still at a loss, wondering what was going on with that strange scene just now.
He was sure that it was definitely not an illusion. But when he tried to sense his body, he found that there was nothing unusual.
It was not until … until Roy opened the system interface that he realized that something strange had really happened just now.
In Roy's personal attribute panel, a talent had silently appeared.
Chosen of the Abyss:???
There was no explanation, and they were all question marks. The source was unknown, and the description was unknown. Even when he asked the system, the system did not know what was going on. This situation really confused Roy.
It seemed that this sudden talent was related to that strange murmur earlier.
What was that murmur? Language of All Things? Great Dao of Heaven's Will? Or is it some other indescribable existence?
This murmur had appeared after he had said those words. In other words, the source of the murmur should be from those words he had said …
Could it be that his words had revealed some sort of Heavenly Secret or something?
But that's not right. Didn't they say that I would be punished for breaking the secrets of heaven, such as reducing my lifespan? Why did I have an additional talent?
The Chosen of the Abyss … Although Roy did not understand the true meaning of this talent, just hearing the name made him feel that it was extraordinary. It should definitely be something good …
No way. It came so suddenly. I wasn't mentally prepared at all! Roy muttered to himself.
At this moment, Roy still did not know how powerful his words were. In fact, being able to say this already meant that he had comprehended the true meaning of the Creator!
For millions of years, as time passed, there were very, very few people in Heaven and Hell who could remember this true meaning. In order to compete for souls, Heaven and Hell constantly fought for a long time. The angels and demons had long forgotten the original intention of the Creator. One side regarded themselves as a high and mighty god, while the other side forgot their original mission and fell into destruction and slaughter, unable to extricate themselves …
Now, it was Roy, a demon with human thoughts and memories, who had comprehended from Cassandra. Therefore, the moment he blurted out this sentence, it had already formed a power similar to the spirit of words in his body …
The Creator had long left, but no matter how much time passed, there would always be people who could comprehend his will, and these people were the so-called Chosen …
At this moment, Roy did not know this. He could only sigh at how many unknowns there were in this enigmatic world …
