wow-
As Klein was pulled out of the water, a "flash" came directly to the boat - the match on his body was completely wet by the water, and he couldn't ignite it and use "flame jump".
He turned around and looked around, only to find that the entire Suicide Squadron was gradually collapsing.
What's going on here?Klein thought subconsciously.
He saw the high-dimensional overlooker standing in front of the undead king Agaritu, looking at the undead king whose body was gradually collapsing. A wall seemed to block the undead king, preventing him from taking another step forward.
Klein looked at Gao Wei and saw that his eyes were gentle, but there was a deep coldness in his eyes.
Is this... divinity?
Looking at Gao Wei, whose expression was much different from his previous impression, Klein took two steps forward and shouted in Runeese:
"High-dimensional!"
After hearing Klein's words, the high-dimensional Overlooker, who was watching the joy of the undead king weakening step by step and gradually returning to weaker Sequence Five, turned his head to look at Klein.
His eyes returned to gentleness and he said to Klein:
"The battle is over."
So fast?Klein was immediately startled: "Is this the end of it for you?"
"After all, I was originally a demigod."
The high-dimensional overlooker responded casually: "I am naturally familiar with the special situations that will appear in the battle of demigods. Although this body can only bear the gift of Sequence Five, it is not without the ability of the three Sequence Fives to cooperate with each other. Chance to kill a 'real' demigod."
A real demigod... Klein nodded secretly, and suddenly felt a little fond of the gift of the high-dimensional Overlooker.However, after noticing the doubts in what the high-dimensional overlooker said just now, he immediately said:
"You mean that Agaritu, the undead king, is not a real demigod?"
"Yes."
The high-dimensional overlooker nodded, "He was originally supposed to be a Sequence Five Extraordinary of the 'Abyss' pathway, but was temporarily elevated to the level of a demigod under the infusion of his flagship, 'The Death'."
"In a sense, this is also a kind of gift. However, this kind of gift is corrosive. It is a high-sequence extraordinary who forcibly injects his own power into the body of a low-sequence extraordinary, turning him into his own puppet the process of."
High-sequence people forcibly turn low-sequence people into puppets... The more things I know, the more I feel that the extraordinary system of this world is becoming more and more twisted and weird... This was in the world before I traveled In any novel in this book, this is an "evil cultivator"...
Klein thought subconsciously in his heart, he looked at the high-dimensional overlooker:
"Then let's leave this sea area directly now?"
"I'm afraid we can't leave now. Look over there." The Gao Dimensional Overlooker turned his gaze and guided Klein to the location of the Lost Home. Klein subconsciously turned his head to look, and he found that the shadow was shrouded in death. The huge "body" of the ship seemed to be absorbing part of the extraordinary characteristics of the ship into its body and using it in some way.
This is "herding"?
This word emerged subconsciously in Klein's mind. He looked at the Lost Home and seemed to think that this scene was similar to the scene when he used "Creeping Hunger" to herd Mr. X's spirit body.
"If nothing else happens, your fleet will have one more ship."
The high-dimensional overlooker said to Klein leisurely: "The Lost Home should absorb a large part of the power of the Death and expand its hull. And the residue left after grazing will become another ship to follow. Your flagship ship turns the pirate group you lead into a 'fleet' in the true sense."
"In this way, you can openly appear in front of other people as Gehrman Sparrow when your strength has been greatly expanded. Generally speaking, the Church of Storms will not take the initiative to attack the 'King of the Sea' 'Launch a large-scale encirclement and suppression, and now that the real creator has become the default righteous god of several gods, you will not need to hide like before."
"Similarly, as the size of the team expands, more and more pirates will come to work on your ship, and there should be some adventurers among them-of course, the only disadvantage may be the money you need There will be more, but with compound interest, you can also go to sea to find more treasures and get more money."
A look of pain flashed across Klein's face, and he suddenly felt that the treasure he had plundered from the Death Ship was about to be squandered like running water.
The current situation forced Klein to continue looking for crew members with extraordinary abilities, because after he killed the Undead King now, as long as he appeared in the outside world, he would be designated as the "Pirate King".
Unless he abandons the ship Suicide now and stops the process of increasing the strength of the Lost Home, the news that he killed the Immortal King Agaritu will not stop spreading.
And the experience of the mismatch between strength and name can be seen whether it is in the Tarot meeting pretending to be a "fool" or from the experience of the undead king being killed by himself-the undead king killed by them in front of him is The most obvious example.
Klein has vaguely considered whether he should rob more evil pirates before heading to the southern continent, and help a normal person to receive a bounty by the way.
He looked at Agaritu, who had not completely died, but had receded from the form of a mythical creature, and a bold idea came to his mind.
"Lao Gao, what do you think if I turn him into my long-term marionette?"
Klein lowered his voice and said to the high-dimensional overlooker.With "Origin Castle", he thought of a clever way to help him quickly digest the extraordinary characteristics of "Master of Secret Puppet".
……
Northern Continent, Loen Kingdom, Backlund New Queens District.
"Dad, is this our new home?"
A young girl with bright brown eyes looked at her father and asked him softly.
Backlund's disaster caused the entire Backlund class to be re-divided. Among them, those who originally had diseases died in large numbers, and those workers in the East District basically either died of illness or He just escaped from the disaster place here and left Backlund to make a living in other cities.
For some low-level civilians who have long been unable to resist Backlund's cruel social laws, the pensions issued by the Loen Kingdom this time instead gave them a chance to escape this suffocating city.
Of course, groups of workers from other places also poured in. They came to this "City of Hope" with hope in their hearts.
——Because after that disaster, the labor force here decreased sharply, and the factory owners and entrepreneurs also had to raise the wages of the workers, raising the low wages to [-]% more than other factories Thirty degrees.
And when the labor force is saturated, the wages here will drop irresistibly.And when the time comes, those who are more savvy and have savings will leave the city and go to other places that lack labor to make a living again; while people with a little mediocrity or civilians who cannot afford steam train tickets can only stay here and continue to suffer like a It is the same exploitation as the previous group of workers received.
Of course, this is under no control.
"Praise be to His Majesty the Emperor for giving us the chance to live a better life."
Representative Morrie Macht, who was wearing a formal suit, said to his daughter.He had a slight smile on his face, because he once served as a soldier in East Balam and served as a major in the army of the Kingdom of Loen.
However, he shook his head slightly and said with some disappointment: "You know, Hazel. Although His Majesty the Emperor announced that he would re-plan the urban structure of Backlund and improve the treatment of workers - there are still many people who do not I understand His Majesty the Emperor’s foresight.”
Congressman Macht’s words are actually quite euphemistic. In fact, even he doesn’t know why George III wanted to legislate the minimum working hourly wage and the maximum daily working hours. This has made some entrepreneurs and factory owners even openly oppose George III. This bill of the Third Generation is intended to secretly organize people to hold demonstrations.
Although this has won the support of many people at the bottom, making them worship George III like a god, but what can this do?
Congressman Macht silently thought that these people at the bottom were not even eligible to participate in elections. He believed that this bill was destined to fail in the future.
However, as a member of the House of Commons who promoted the enactment of the bill to control air pollution, although Maury Macht did not understand the bill pushed by His Majesty the Emperor on a whim—perhaps because of the large-scale worship of evil gods that occurred before Backlund The bill was enacted only after it was stimulated by the incident.
But this does not prevent him from praising His Majesty the Emperor, because it will also help the air pollution control bill he promoted continue to be implemented.
Praise to His Majesty the Emperor.
Mori Macht murmured to himself silently in his heart.After Backlund re-planned, he was able to live in an area closer to the center of power, and the war and turmoil allowed him to occupy a more important position among the councilors.
"At least the air will be better this way."
Hazel said to her father casually.A servant behind her was carrying an exquisitely crafted cage, which was covered with soft cushions. On top of it, a mouse with well-maintained shiny fur lay quietly inside.
Before leaving the carriage, the cage was covered with a layer of red cloth to prevent others from seeing what kind of pets were kept in it—to be honest, in the eyes of Maury Macht, the mouse that his daughter liked was naturally It's not a decent enough pet, but since his daughter is happy, he, who has the experience of serving as an officer in East Balam and is more enlightened, naturally won't do much to stop her.
But no matter what, he naturally wouldn't let his daughter take the mouse outside for others to see.
"Yes." Councilor Macht walked towards his newly built house. He looked at his daughter and said to her suddenly:
"Hazel, I found a tutor for you."
"Family teacher?" Hazel frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.After all, she has to take a lot of lessons every day, including the etiquette and other knowledge that every nobleman should know - it is actually not something that needs too much attention, but Hazel feels that her own It was rather strange for my father to specifically tell himself about this matter.
As a "decryption scholar" of Sequence Seven, Hazel subconsciously felt that this matter was definitely not as simple as imagined.She thought for a moment, thinking about recent events and asked her father:
"Is it because of Miskatonic University, which has gained an unusually high status in Backlund recently?"
"That's right." Morrie Macht nodded: "The former Duke Abraham served as the president of this university, so many nobles are proud to study in this university - of course, from this school Invite specialized teachers to teach yourself or your children."
Of course there is no need to say anything more after that.
Although this would not bring him closer to the principal, it was still a way to show his loyalty to Emperor Loen.To a certain extent, this duke is considered to be the Kingdom of Loen - he is now the founding hero of the empire, and no one knows whether he suddenly announced that he would be Miskatonic's principal because of the emperor's order?
For them, such abnormal behavior often contains more problems.Regardless of whether any of these teachers are directly affiliated with the emperor, this can show to the emperor that they are "willing to be supervised by the emperor."
After all, proclaiming himself emperor already represented many things.
"Okay, I understand." Hazel sighed softly and nodded reservedly.
"When will this teacher come?"
She is confident that she is an extraordinary person different from ordinary people. She even has the strength of Sequence Seven. She is still confident that she can deal with the tutor.
"Well..." Councilor Macht smiled awkwardly: "We were a little late moving today. Your teacher should be here soon."
As soon as Congressman Macht finished speaking, the doorbell rang outside.After a while, a young man wearing formal clothes walked in with the servant and greeted the two of them with elegant etiquette:
"Mr. Macht, I am your tutor."
A smile appeared on the thin young man's face, and his tone turned slightly: "I don't know when we can start teaching?"
"I hope you can get to know my daughter first." Congressman Macht showed a gentle and somewhat majestic smile. The young man opposite him nodded as expected. He pushed up his monocle and spoke gently. bending down and bowing:
"Hello, Miss Macht. My surname is Jacob, just call me Mr. Jacob."
Amon smiled gently, staring at Hazel in front of him.
