"You …... you heathens!!"
Flustered and exasperated, the gypsy diviner cursed out loud.
"How is this possible! How is this possible, why aren't you dead! The infernal flames of the hearts and diamonds can even incinerate one's soul …... ah!! "
Before she could finish, her face received a heavy slap! This slap caused the diviner's vision to darken as she saw stars. Half of her face swelled up like a steamed bun. Indeed, Sheyan had slapped her face with the back of his saber, causing the gypsy diviner to collapse to the ground in incomparable agony. Sheyan then stomped down on her.
At present, one could observe that Sheyan's injuries weren't light. His entire body was riddled with large patches of scorch wounds, where wisps of green fumes were emitting from his body.
Looking at Sheyan impassively raising his saber and thrusting down, the pupils of the gypsy diviner contracted abruptly as she shrieked out.
"Don't kill me!"
Sheyan's saber tip halted before her throat.
"Reason?"
That gypsy diviner's eyes flickered as she gritted her teeth, as though she had steeled her resolve.
"I can seek refuge with you, and become your servant! I've heard of your ability, to deprive an enemy's strength to your own. However, the prerequisite is that you must kill Trish for me, and snatch away her trump card! "
Sheyan kicked her in the face. His eyes were as cold as the ice in the Arctic Ocean. His voice was hoarse as he said:
"What use is a trash like you to me? More importantly, I've never discussed conditions with others! "
As he spoke, he raised his saber once again! Instead, Reef and Brother Black exchanged glances and smiled. Evidently, if Sheyan wasn't moved by that woman's words, he would've chopped down with his saber long ago. Why would he waste his breath on her?
At this moment, a gypsy guard lying in a pool of blood suddenly roared in fury.
"Taitish!! How dare you betray Lord Jiejie, you …... "
Before that gypsy guard could finish his words, a pirate had already arrived behind him. Sneering while shaking his head, the pirate lifted his leg and stomped down! His head suddenly burst open like a watermelon. Red and white mixed with the muddy water, and there was also a mixture of white hair and beard. This tragic scene immediately caused the others to keep quiet out of fear.
That woman called Taitish had already lost her courage after witnessing those frenzied slashes. She shrieked out with a trembling voice.
"Don't kill me. I know many secrets of the gypsies. You don't know this, but Jiejie is very obsessed with the dark power behind the diary you brought last time. She has even started to contact that power! Otherwise, he wouldn't have left at this time. If the two sides cooperate successfully, even with your current strength, it will be difficult to resist. "
The icy cold blade of '+ 7 West' paused by the neck of the diviner named Taitish, causing her heart to tremble with fear as she felt the sharpness of the blade. Sheyan's entire body was charred black. Although he appeared to be in a sorry state, he was like a lofty demon god. Not only was he crudely trampling on her face, he was frantically suppressing her spirit.
"Perhaps what you said just now could be considered a reason, but that's still insufficient!"
Taitish appeared to be a person with quick reflexes, as she immediately refuted.
"Master! In this battle, I had already lost two of my most powerful red cards, as well as a suitable crystal ball. The mission had also failed. After returning, my position will be exceedingly low. Rather than suffering endless vexation in the future, why not rely on you? At least there's a possibility of regaining my strength. "
"Furthermore, I'm not even 40 years old this year, yet I've already turned into a state that's neither human nor ghost. That's all because Jiejie's two sacrificial totemic beasts are constantly sucking away our life essence. With such a powerful backing like you, I can at least live for a few more years! To prove my loyalty, I can even hand over my Soul Sphere to you. As long as you break this sphere, I'll immediately perish. "
Sheyan's eyes flickered as he asked.
"Then why didn't Jiejie take away your Soul Sphere to control you?"
Taitish laughed bitterly and replied.
"That's impossible. Jiejie isn't a lifelong Empress. Every three years, the tribe would elect a new Empress. Furthermore, a woman who has already assumed the position of Jiejie can never assume the position of Jiejie again. That rule wasn't decided by us, but the harsh restrictions of those two sacrificial totemic beasts. The gypsies are already under a high-pressure policy. If we were to demand the surrender of our Soul Sphere, it would inevitably incite a massive upheaval. "
Sheyan ignored her. Evidently, Taitish's news was extremely shocking. He then turned to Mogensha.
"How many escaped?"
Brother Black shook his head and replied.
"Not a single escaped. The gypsy slaves don't seem to possess their own consciousness. Because those gypsy guardians were clad in exceedingly heavy armour, none of them managed to escape. Our harvest isn't small. Although we didn't obtain any replaceable or valuable equipment, we still earned roughly 30,000 utility points. "
Following that, Sheyan utilized his' Captain's plundering ability to search around. Unexpectedly, he even managed to find a light-blue storyline grade equipment. That was the steel armour worn by the gypsy guardians. It was able to pay the price of lowering agility in exchange for a substantial boost in defence.
At this moment, Sheyan turned to look at a bearded pirate whose hair and eyebrows were scorched. He was currently coughing out blood, and a distinct footprint could be seen on his chest armour. He was indeed that pirate who had bravely charged forward, and used his body to shield Sheyan from the great fireball.
Sheyan then strolled to his front.
"Your name."
The other pirates immediately shot envious gazes towards that bearded pirate. They knew he had made the right bet with his previous frenzied actions. That pirate was trembling with excitement, as he knelt down and kowtowed to the ground with his head.
"Davis, boss."
Sheyan pondered for a moment, before recalling the gaze Davis had thrown towards him. That was a gaze brimming with fanaticism, like how Cob saw Brother Spring …... Sheyan then nodded and retrieved a sword from his party storage.
That was Harold's two-handed greatsword!
Cruel Blizzard!!
He then placed the sword on Davis' shoulder.
"Your sacrifice was witnessed by me. Your life was consecrated to me. Although this is a feeble duty and duty you ought to fulfill, such loyalty and virtue is worthy of commendation. This shall serve as a guide to those lost lambs in the darkness. "
Davis used his forehead to touch the ground, as his voice trembled.
"Sir, I'm unworthy of your commendation, unworthy of your bestowal!!"
Sheyan then calmly replied.
"What I shall bestow upon you, is the might of the God of War stripped from the mighty viking warrior Harold. You can either conquer it, or be conquered by it! Grasp its hilt! Conquer its soul! Are you prepared? Do you dare to conquer its might? "
As he spoke, Sheyan placed the Cruel Blizzard into Davis' palm. Davis didn't reply, but gripped tightly onto the hilt of the greatsword! His eyes once again ignited with the fiery passion of a fanatic. Spotlessly white sparkling ice and snow abruptly enveloped his entire body, congealing him into an ice sculpture.
Yet in the next instant, the ice sculpture was filled with cracks. Davis' hair, eyebrows and beard instantly turned snowy white. He roared towards the heavens, as though snowflakes were drifting down from the heavens!
Evidently, the originally weak Davis had obtained the approval of the weapon's soul with his unwavering conviction. His prowess soared, and at least half of Harold's formidable offensive might! Of course, his defensive capabilities weren't strengthened by much. Even so, he had ascended to the heavens in a single bound from an ordinary pirate.
Following that, Sheyan bestowed the steel armour to another pirate who had fought valiantly. Then, he turned to Taitish.
"Did you see it?"
Taitish's eyes stared blankly, as she sluggishly replied.
"I saw it."
Sheyan coldly replied.
"As long as you're loyal, only loyal, then I'll make you stronger!"
Taitish stood to one side, as she breathed a sigh of relief. She knew she was spared her little life, as she lowered her head and replied.
"Yes, master."
Sheyan insipidly replied.
"Then, it's impolite not to reciprocate. Since the gypsies schemed against me, then they have to face my wrath. You mentioned Jiejie isn't here right? Since no one has escaped, and your identity hasn't been exposed, I'll first assemble my men. Next, I'll bring you to your nearby lair – the gypsy ship. When that happens, it will be time for you to prove your loyalty. "
Taitish stared at him in astonishment.
"You, how did you know we came here by ship?"
Sheyan disdainfully replied.
"The gypsies are a nomadic race, and wouldn't stay in one place for long. Port Royal has recently been controlled by Norrington's iron fist. It's practically impossible for such a large-scale armed force like yours to establish a foothold near Port Royal. So what else is there to say? The only possibility is a large ship that can anchor by the shore and transport goods. "
Taitish paused briefly before replying.
"Although it's inappropriate to say this, I still have to say it. Sir, please don't do that."
Sheyan insipidly replied.
"Oh?"
Taitish bitterly replied.
"I feel that even if Jiejie isn't here, I can still act as a spy. Still, the gypsy camp is extremely difficult to infiltrate …... because, Jiejie's flagship is anchored there! Furthermore, the one presiding over the situation there is absolutely not weak …... that woman is hailed as the most powerful candidate for the next Jiejie! Her might is absolutely not something that can be easily challenged! " If you like this work, I welcome you to donate your recommendation votes or monthly votes to me.
