Night in London.
"Gilded Quagmire."
Old Gibbs wobbled into the underground tavern, a bottle of rum in his hand.
"Burp ~"
While burping, Old Gibbs happily waved at the pirates he was familiar with.
Quite a few pirates who weren't completely drunk asked Old Gibbs about where they had been all this time.
Old Gibbs simply revealed a mysterious smile and said, "Oh, that is an adventure story worth bragging about."
Everyone expressed their disbelief. At any rate, Old Gibbs had been bragging for quite some time now.
Old Gibbs could not be bothered to explain and simply walked to the bar counter.
In the past, there would always be an old man with a coquettish ponytail sitting behind the bar counter playing the guitar. Today, however, there were two tall and muscular men.
"Yo! Nick, Blake, where is that fellow? "
The two muscular men had helpless looks on their faces as they simultaneously gestured toward the cubicle behind the bar counter with their lips.
Sounds of 'en' and 'ah' could be heard coming from behind the door.
Old Gibbs' face instantly turned incomparably odd and his eyes widened.
After a while …
The old man playing the guitar walked out from behind the door, his clothes in a mess.
Old Gibbs hastily stuck his head out and peeked inside. The interior of the cubicle was as messy as a dog's kennel. Beneath the blanket, he could faintly make out snow-white thighs and arms.
"Hey! Jack! "
"Shh … damn it, Gibbs, lower your voice."
"Ha ha ha, Jack, the beard on your face fell off."
"… … …"
Old Gibbs leisurely recounted his adventure to Jack.
"Mm? The trident broke again? That woman, is she dead? "
"She should be dead. Maybe, or maybe, she should be."
Jack snickered and pasted the beard back on his face. Then, he drank a cup and said, "Satisfying!"
Old Gibbs glanced at Jack and said, "Didn't you meet Sax that day? Why don't you recognize him? Don't forget, you are … "
Hearing that, Jack was enraged and he said, "Damn it! This senior was forced! Forced! That day, it was that cunning woman who handcuffed this Captain to the bed! She actually pushed down Captain Jack Sparrow! Additionally, we were both drunk! "
Gibbs: "Oh, as expected of her."
The two of them stared at each other for a few seconds and then burst out laughing at the same time.
"Cheers!"
"To the sea!"
"Cheers!"
"To freedom!"
"Cheers!"
"To Black Pearl!"
"Cheers!"
"To … Elizabeth!"
"Scram!"
"Cheers!" Old Gibbs downed several cups in a row, feeling as though he was about to vomit.
Jack suddenly fell silent.
After a long time.
Only then did he raise his head and raise the rum in his hand high up. His eyes revealed a trace of confusion and nostalgia as he suddenly lowered his voice.
"To … Barbosa."
Old Gibbs was slightly startled. Then, he smiled and said, "To Barbosa."
The two of them drank the wine in one gulp.
There was no end to adventure.
It was like a pirate's rum. After drinking one glass, there would be another. There was no end to it.
…
…
Irin reappeared.
He looked around.
It was still in the sturdy room of Molly's research institute.
There were walls on all sides.
Old Pan was not around.
"Ah, right, I purposely locked the door before entering the trial."
Irin shook his head.
This time's trial in the Inner Plane was too long. So long that Irin still felt a bit uncomfortable after leaving the trial.
— — -as if he was still on a boat.
The flow of time between the Inner Plane and Reality was completely different.
Even though Irin spent two long months in the Inner Plane, in Reality, only a short minute had passed.
Irin didn't leave the room right away.
He looked down and began to carefully organize his harvest from the previous world.
First was … his Apostle UI.
[Irin] (ID: 1010)
[Title] Skeleton Gentleman
[HP] 100%
[Mana] 750
[Module] Horseman of the Apocalypse (Damaged)
[Level] LV16 (2nd stage Apostle)
[Strength] 3.5
[Dexterity] 4.6
[Spirit] 7.5
[Willpower] 7.6
[Luck] 2.8
[Charm] 2.1
[Skills] Following Shadow (Max), Entanglement of Calamity (3 stars), Bloodthirsty Disaster (2 stars), Summon Nightmare (1 star), Run Fast (D grade)
[Enhancement] Killing Technique (A- grade), Dionysus Factor (Damaged) (A grade), Yin Yang Hand (B + grade)
Irin: "…"
First, his strength, dexterity, spirit, and willpower all increased to different degrees.
Secondly, hmm … his luck and charm also decreased as expected.
However, the luck and charm attributes that were decreased were all added to the other attributes.
If it was a self-comforting thought: the lower his charm, the more unlucky he was, the stronger he would be.
Hmm, thinking about it carefully, it was not bad.
Anyway, no matter how low his charm was, it wouldn't affect his appearance. At most, his temperament would become harder to approach.
Could this be the legendary … murderous aura?
Irin quickly accepted this painful situation.
Egg?
Irin subconsciously touched his chest and then quickly let out a sigh of relief.
After checking, Irin looked at the apostle panel again.
This time, the increase in attributes didn't bring any discomfort or awkwardness to Irin.
After all, the increase in strength, dexterity, and spirit was similar to the increase in attributes under [Abundant]. Therefore, Irin didn't need to spend any extra time to get used to his body after the increase in attributes.
In terms of skills, the biggest gain should be the [Summon Nightingale] skill that allowed him to accumulate enough Chaos Value.
No wonder the Horseman of the Apocalypse didn't want to get off his horse in the chaotic battle. Mounts were so important to the Horseman of the Apocalypse.
Irin had a sudden realization.
After a short moment of emotion, Irin's eyes fell on the enhancement panel again and made another emotion.
"Invincible … no wonder he is invincible."
Irin had forgotten that a minute ago in the "real world", he said the same thing and said the same thing.
…
[Yin Yang Hand]

…
This was the hidden weapon technique that Mo Rendi taught Irin after the bet between Irin and Irin.
If he didn't see it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe that the martial art that Mo Rendi created on the spot was approved by the "tower" and an attribute description appeared.
Grandmaster!
This was an official acknowledgement!
Invincible was awesome!
Other than awesome, Irin couldn't think of any other words to praise him.
He wasn't an apostle, but he could create an "enhancement" that was approved by the officials. Although Irin knew that Mo Rendi wasn't an ordinary person, this attribute description also proved Mo Rendi's strength.
"Unfortunately …"
Irin thought about the death of "Future" Mo Rendi and a trace of regret flashed across his face.
"If it's possible, if we want to recruit such a powerful person before the apocalypse, we have to find a way to get him to become an apostle."
"But that old man has already pressed" NO ". Logically speaking, he can't be summoned again. Even if he kills an apostle, he won't be able to become an apostle again."
"This is a choice … Once it's made, there's no way to reverse it."
"Unless, other than being summoned and killing an apostle, there's a third unknown method?"
Irin muttered to himself. But when he thought of this, he couldn't help but laugh at himself. "I'm really worrying for nothing. If there's really such a method, with Zhao Yulong's current position, he should have already gotten hold of the relevant information. Why hasn't he found it yet?"
Thus, Irin shook his head and stopped worrying about it.
After organizing his increased attributes, Irin continued to sit cross-legged on the ground and recalled the various things that happened during the trial.
He always had the habit of analyzing the various traps in the trial after passing each trial, as well as the theoretical method to obtain a higher rating.
Only by constantly summarizing the experience could he go further in the cruel trial.
In this trial, it was very difficult.
What identity the apostle played was all based on luck.
In the beginning, Irin thought that he played the role of "Elizabeth Ling" and was the most unlucky existence among the five. But he didn't think that there would be someone more unlucky than him. At the beginning of the trial, he was forced to bear a terrifying curse and was even remembered by Alice across thousands of mountains and rivers … Three seconds of silence for Martyr Zhao.
The trial map this time was extremely large, and there were also many hidden side missions.
Take Irin for example, he missed two important side missions. One was the "philosopher's stone", the other was "Alice". If he could completely uncover these two side missions, he might be able to raise the final rating by another level.
There was also the strange technology of the navy, the identity of the governor, the basement of the governor's mansion, Sax's background, Jack's whereabouts … etc.
Oh right, there was also an earring. If he didn't guess incorrectly, the earring should have an undiscovered secret. Because the earring and the corset were exclusive to women and contained a curse, Irin didn't take it with him before he left and simply left it with Elizabeth Ling.
"Gu Tianqing, you're really something."
Irin analyzed the various experiences and clues in his mind and couldn't help but laugh.
All the apostles chose to join the pirate camp without any prior agreement.
Including Gu Tianqing, or perhaps … Indiana Jones.
That's right.
In the previous trial, Irin wasn't the only one who had two identities.
Gu Tianqing also used the identity of "Indiana Jones" to uncover a lot of pirate plots. If not, it wouldn't explain why after the trident was broken, Gu Tianqing couldn't move and kept vomiting blood.
He carried too many curses on his body, to the point where he relied entirely on curses to survive. The end of the pirate storyline seemed to have a lot to do with the power of curses. It was only because Gu Tianqing interfered midway that the difficulty of the mission abruptly increased, that the two storylines became unrecognizable.
Irin hid the identity of Gou Zi and played the role of Skeleton Gentleman.
Gu Tianqing played the role of Seishiro Amakusa and hid Indiana Jones.
"Wait, so, then the other apostle … Who is it?"
"It's very likely that he was killed by Gu Tianqing earlier, otherwise, Gu Tianqing couldn't come up with this way of disrupting the situation."
Thinking of this, Irin silently added another label to Gu Tianqing.
– "Insidious."
It has to be mentioned that if the trial was really a camp war, the Marine side would be too miserable.
The two apostles who appeared to be in the Marine on the surface were playing the informant, this was undoubtedly a five to zero situation, there was no need to fight at all to determine the winner.
This could also explain why Gu Tianqing knew the key location of the pirate's main mission "Shipwreck Bay" and why he tried to destroy that place and create a conflict between the missions.
What Gu Tianqing didn't expect was that Irin was in the Marine, but on the other side, he quietly let Gou Zi operate in two lines. Using the compass, he successfully found the key item to seal Calypso – Poseidon's Trident.
The general summary was completed.
This trial was really exciting, Irin couldn't help but savor it and chuckle.
Suddenly.
Irin felt that his arm was itchy, as if there were countless insects crawling, and many ants, constantly biting his hand, itchy and painful.
The next second, the smile on Irin's face suddenly froze.
The flesh and blood of his hands, like old bark, was rapidly withering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
