Once upon a time, there was a pirate who was astonished and reigned supreme in the chaotic sea.
He and his fleet have no rivals on the sea, and everyone on the island is famous for his name.
In order to express people's fear of him and his subordinates' reverence for him, the name "Pirate King" began to circulate in the chaotic sea.
He originally thought that he could continue to gallop like this, and then hide his life savings somewhere before he died, leaving various legends for future generations, allowing them to follow the footsteps he left.
However, he could not wait for that moment.
In other words, he realized that his own power seemed too immature to be king in this world.
He didn't pay much attention to the situation on the mainland. The Kingdom's navy who once wanted to encircle and suppress him was met with many fierce counterattacks by him. The result of each pursuit was only to increase his bounty again.
He didn't think that people on the ground were any nobler than people on the sea. He hated those superior people on land.
And that day, he got to know a land man who was indeed "noble".
The reason was just because his fleet hijacked a luxurious ship.
Then, on that ship was the king of the most powerful country on land at that time.
His fleet was torn into pieces with a wave of his hand, and he fell to his knees helplessly under the opponent's look, unable to resist at all.
The legend of the Pirate King collapsed halfway.
After being imprisoned for a period of time, he was released in order to help manage the affairs of the sea, and signed a selling contract with the king, and worked for the king and his country for the rest of his life.
That king was cold and ruthless. Just as he was powerful and powerful, his humanity seemed to be minimal.
However, he is still kind in some places.
For example, he did not strictly restrict the freedom of the Pirate King.
This gave the Pirate King room to maneuver. He secretly mobilized his men and went deep into the mysterious ocean, hoping to find the power to fight against the terrible king.
Since there are such unimaginable beings in the world, then perhaps there is a power more powerful than that king in the ocean, which is wider and deeper than the land.
However, he didn't know whether it existed specifically, because until the end, he failed to find the power he wanted.
Those so-called powers can't even break the contract with Wang Sui!
At first, he would be cautious, but as his hope became increasingly slim, he became more self-destructive. When he completely lost hope, he encountered something even more desperate than before.
He touched the terror in the sea.
…
"But because of your contract, although that existence eroded and polluted me, it could not directly kill or control me. I was able to maintain my consciousness. However, when I delayed my return at sea for several years
, and I found...well, you know." Melrod glanced at Aaron a few times, but he didn't say everything after considering all aspects, just understood.
Aaron didn't pay attention to his little thoughts and said: "Then what?"
"The influence of that being on me still exists. Without your shackles, I was forced to sail on the sea and encountered many things." Melrod sighed and said.
"In the middle, I even passed through a large whirlpool and was swept away to another world. That place was very primitive, but I found many similar characteristics to ours. Because I felt that it was involved in some conspiracy, I didn't go into details. And when I came back again
When I returned to this world, I found that a new era had arrived."
Aaron nodded: "How did you become the captain of this ship?"
"In order to find freedom from the influence of that existence, I found Lilith." Melrod looked a little embarrassed.
At first, he went to find strength to fight against Aron, but ended up attracting the gods of the sea. Then, in order to get rid of the influence of the gods, he searched again and found Lilith.
What happened after that was also very clear. Melrod was arranged by Lilith to board this ship and became the captain of this ship.
As for why a person contaminated by erosion would be used...
Sizzling——
Just as he was talking, the lights in the room suddenly began to flicker, and a cold atmosphere enveloped him.
A large number of garbled characters and display errors appeared on the instrument display of the console, but these things quickly pieced together a pattern in front of everyone's eyes.
A vague outline, the specific shape could not be seen clearly. Before anyone could take a closer look, the outline disappeared, and what was displayed next was a string of ancient words patchworked together.
Looking at this scene, Melrod realized that the text was the ancient bronze inscription that Alon once popularized on the mainland.
However, the ancient gold language displayed at this time was cryptic, and only those who received permission could understand it.
To others, the text is nothing more than an incomprehensible jumble of patterns.
After Aaron browsed it, all the displays returned to normal, the cold atmosphere disappeared, and the flashing lights brightened again.
"How's it going? What did Lilith say?" Melrod asked with some anticipation.
In response, Alon showed a smiling expression: "He said you did a good job and he is very satisfied. Then just continue doing what you want."
"Really?" Melrod trembled: "But I can't help it..."
"There will be a way. After all, haven't you never given up searching from the past to the present?" Aron reached out and patted him on the shoulder.
After saying that, Aaron turned around and called the three little ones who were still looking at the display screen on the console curiously, and left the captain's cabin.
Melrod sat on the chair a little decadently, was silent for a long time, and lowered his head.
…
The perspective shifted back to the present, and Aaron and the puppets finally returned to the room to order food.
The snacks before the meal were delivered quickly. Xing Liuli ate the ice cream and said, "Aaron, what did Lilith say? Such a long list of things won't only contain the content you said."
"The partners should communicate with each other and coordinate the subsequent plans. There is nothing to worry about. You think they have been kidnapped, but in fact they are the hunters." Aaron took a spoonful and put it into his mouth, chewing leisurely.
"Then we are safe?" Xing Liuli tilted her head.
"When are we unsafe?" Aaron asked rhetorically.
"That's right."
"However, the Nightmare Son still needs to be dealt with. Little Reimu's strengthening material depends on it." Aaron said.
Hirimu was eating strawberry ice cream with bright red strawberry jam sprinkled on top. Her eyes were fixed on the strawberry jam, and her scarlet pupils were very similar to the color of the strawberry jam.
"Woo..." Yue Tomb, who had been watching her for a long time, took a big spoonful of his own chocolate sauce ice cream and put it in Nichiremu's cup.
Bright red covered with dark brown.
"Hey, what are you doing, little one!" Xing Liuli said immediately, realizing that a certain black guy seemed to be bullying the little girl based on his seniority!
"Woo!" Yue Tomb clanked.
Doesn’t it look like the little girl doesn’t like strawberry jam very much?
"It's okay, it's fine. It's okay with me." Rireimu returned from his dazed state and hurriedly comforted his eldest brother and sister who were about to pinch him.
