Calamity Crown

The monstrous waves receded slowly.

The entire Port of Marne was smashed to pieces.

As the sun set in the morning, the people of Hong Kong Marne standing on the high ground outside the city looked anxious but full of expectation.

Soph left the highlands first with his wife, daughter and son.

"Daddy, are we going home?"

Little Eve, who was holding her younger brother, asked softly.

"Well, go home!"

Soph nodded.

By this time, Suo Fu had no choice but to put all his hopes on the 'God of the Inner Bay', especially when he just hoped to use his labor to exchange food for survival from that master, the other party unexpectedly After proposing to buy his wife and daughter with two pieces of bread, Suo Fu completely fell for the 'God of the Inner Bay'.

Hope it works.

otherwise……

Soph gradually clenched his fists.

As a husband and father, he must ensure that his wife and children can live.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to return to his old career.

Suddenly a pair of hands grabbed his clenched fist.

is his wife.

His wife's soft gaze made him loosen his fist.

His wife doesn't want him to go back to his previous life.

He also made promises.

At this moment, he took a deep breath.

"everything will be fine!"

As Soph said, he picked up his daughter and son, speeded up, and ran forward very easily - the priest said that when he prayed for the first time, he only needed to erect a statue of the "God of the Inner Bay".

Not a statue in the traditional sense.

It's the reef in the inner bay!

Any kind of reef is fine, preferably the size of a palm.

While praying, he poured sea water on the statue and told the "God of the Inner Bay" what he wanted.

When the "God of Neiwan" has given the corresponding and requested items, the prayer must regard himself as a follower of the "God of Neiwan", and he can keep it secret, but he must never do harm to the "God of Neiwan" and his brothers in the church Regarding the matter of sisters, when the 'God of Neiwan' and the brothers and sisters in the church are in danger, they must lend a helping hand.

Soph didn't think much about this seemingly simple ritual and teaching.

In other words, reality forced him to think too much.

"Wait here, I'll go find a rock."

On the ruins of the original home, Suo Fu told his wife, picked up a bucket that was still intact, and ran towards the sea.

Around him, there are similar people.

Everyone tacitly rushed to the beach.

Then, go back as fast as you can.

The strong Sof was the first to return to the ruins of his home.

And his wife had already cleared a reasonably level vacant lot.

Standing the reef on the open space, Suofu and his family knelt down on the ground, while pouring the sea water from the inner bay on the 'stone statue', while closing their eyes, praying that their family would survive.

The sea water was poured on it over and over again.

When the third pass was completed, Soph opened his eyes.

The man looked around apprehensively.

Nothing has changed.

The home is still in ruins.

lost.

decadent.

The man gritted his teeth so as not to let himself fall to the ground.

"Damn it!"

"I actually choose to believe in the gods!"

"If there were gods in this world, I wouldn't be a pirate!"

"We will never encounter such a disaster!"

Soph, who stood still, took a deep breath.

Then, after taking a look at his bewildered wife, he walked towards the backyard of his memory. He removed the waste and sundries on it, and began to dig the soil with his hands.

Half a meter down.

A box appeared there.

Inside are his sword, revolver and bullets from when he was a pirate.

call!

Suo Fu glanced at his wife again, said sorry silently in his heart, took a deep breath, and opened the box.

Then, Soph froze.

The sword, revolver and bullets in the box are all there.

There was also an extra stack of coins and food.

One gold coin, twenty-three silver coins.

Six stout loaves, a loaf of butter, and a saucer of honey.

Gold coins and silver coins flicker.

The food is fresh and smells sweet with butter and honey.

Sophie's hands were shaking.

Not only because the money allowed him to rebuild his house, but also because the food was enough to tide him over.

Eat these foods sparingly, enough to last ten days!

His family was saved!

God of Inner Bay!

Yes, the God of Neiwan!

"Your Majesty and Mercy, please forgive my ignorance!"

"From now on, you are the existence I believe in in this life!"

"No!"

"You are the existence I believe in, life after life!"

Suo Fu became firm in an instant.

And on the side -

Cuckoo!

The crowing of a hen suddenly sounded. It was his mother. He bought it from the market for half a silver coin to replenish his wife's body after giving birth. Although she was a little thin, she could give birth every two or three days. The next egg was one of the few times when his family improved their lives.

Little Eve ran over excitedly and brought back her own hen.

The smile on his face couldn't be suppressed.

Little Eve's mother was hugging little Eve's younger brother, stroking the top of little Eve's head.

"A miracle happened!"

"everything will be fine!"

The kind woman said softly.

But most of the time, things don't go the way people expect.

Several people showed up here.

In the lead was a well-dressed fellow.

Even though it was covered with muddy water and stains, its expression was still arrogant.

And behind him, there are three strong domestic servants with swords.

"Tsk, I've been looking for you for a long time."

"Finally let me find it."

"Tie them back to me—you lazy guy who ate two pieces of my bread, you better not act rashly!"

The guy with the toad face touched the mole on his chin and laughed playfully.

"My dad is not lazy!"

"He won't eat your bread either!"

Little Eve scolded him angrily.

"oh?"

"Yeah?"

"Come on, go and cut open his stomach to see if there is any bread from my family."

The toad-faced guy looked at little Eve with disgusting eyes, and he waved at the servants behind him almost unwelcomely.

No doubt that was what he had intended.

And the three servants were also familiar with it, and rushed towards Suo Fu with a grin.

Then--

bang bang bang!

Three shots!

The three servants who rushed towards Suof fell to the ground with gunshots in their eyebrows.

The toad-faced guy trembled in fright, turned and ran away.

However, Suo Fu stepped forward with a sword, stabbing the other party's heart.

puff!

Then he drew his sword and slashed horizontally.

The opponent's head flew straight up.

For this guy who hit his wife and daughter's ideas, Suofu didn't intend to let him go-although there would be more troubles later, but that was also later.

Now?

Let's kill first!

The ferocity that was wiped out by the family in the past reappeared in Suofu's heart.

"Pack up your things, let's go."

he yelled at his wife.

In his field of vision, several guys in uniforms had already appeared.

It's the police of Port Marne.

how so fast

Is it with this guy?

Soph thought about it, and began to reload, with a killing intent in his heart.

After Sergeant Snarrow, who was leading six of his men, saw Soph's appearance, the soon-to-be-retired sheriff trembled in his heart—in his 40-year career as a policeman, he had seen too many of them. His gaze and expression changed.

Each one is a murderous generation who kills without blinking an eye.

In normal times, he would definitely take a detour.

But today is different!

Disaster struck the Port of Marne!

Needs to be rebuilt!

Reconstruction needs the help of those rich people!

Even if their property is wiped out!

But their relationship is still there!

So, Snarrow followed.

He hoped to have a happy ending as much as possible.

It's better to be able to fool the past.

But what he didn't expect was that Suof shot directly without giving him any room.

"Sof put down the gun!"

Snarrow yelled.

Sergeant Snarrow knew Sof, the honest and honest carpenter, but now the other person's face has long since lost the simplicity of the past, and only has anger, murderous intent and ferocity.

Suofu didn't listen at all, and raised his hand to shoot.

boom!

The moment Sophie raised his hand, Snarrow quickly dodged.

At the same time, prepare to fight back.

However, before he could shoot, he realized something was wrong.

At some point, hundreds of people gathered here.

They are all familiar Port Marne people.

They stared at themselves with disgust and hatred.

Snarrow shuddered.

More importantly, six of his subordinates also pointed their guns at him at some point.

"What are you guys doing?"

Snarrow looked puzzled.

"I will not allow you to hurt our brothers and sisters!"

One of the six subordinates said so, and pulled the hammer.

brothers and sisters?

God of Inner Bay?

Snarlow, who has been a local sheriff for forty years, reacted instantly.

These people turned out to be members of the 'God of the Inner Bay'.

Snaror knew about this hidden church.

No big harm.

Nor will it be swindled.

Kind of like a mutual aid organization.

Occasional sacrifices are also made with seawater, and there is no means of harming other people's lives or touching the bottom line with blood sacrifices, so Snaror usually ignores them at all.

But let it go.

Just when did the 'God of the Neiwan' reach out to the police station?

yes……

The storm just now!

Snarlow quickly guessed what it was.

Damn guy!

She had been hiding for so long before revealing her minions!

Snarlow cursed in his heart, but he didn't show any abnormality on the surface, and he knew very well what he should do now.

"Do not misunderstand!"

"I will not hurt my brothers and sisters!"

"I'm also a devout believer in the 'God of the Inner Bay'—it's just that I didn't know that Suof is also my brother and sister, so this kind of misunderstanding happened... Suof, is this guy trying to hurt you?"

Snarrow loudly announced his identity.

He is very clear about the structure of the 'God of the Inner Bay'.

Since they took advantage of the disaster just now, many people should not know each other, and they can only gather in a small area. Even those who spread it, it is difficult to tell how many people they have recruited into the group.

People around were taken aback.

"Sheriff, are you too?"

asked the officer who pulled the hammer.

"certainly!"

"Your Majesty is my only faith!"

Snarlow said so.

Immediately, the disgust around him was greatly reduced, and everyone became friendly again.

"What just happened Soph?"

Snarrow asked again.

And when Soph told everything, even Snalow couldn't help but spit at that bastard.

Really riding a horse is not a thing!

However, when he saw the people who were furious and ready to take revenge on those guys, Snalow immediately said.

"Everyone calm down!"

"Calm down, everyone!"

"Those guys have a bloodline that we don't have, and their strength...is not something we can fight against!"

Suddenly, everyone calmed down.

In Faber, blood is paramount!

Only those who have blood are the real masters!

other people?

It is the lowest level of civilians.

Even if the bloodline is not awakened, it is still the case.

For example, the toad face just now.

The people around became a little depressed for a while.

"Can't fight?"

"That was before!"

"Now that we have the protection of His Majesty, we will become fearless, and we will protect our families, our brothers and sisters with our own lives and blood!"

A voice sounded from outside the crowd.

Everyone turn around.

Yes, Victor.

He is the leader of the "God of the Inner Bay" in Port Marne, and he is also the one who preached the "God of the Inner Bay" to the Sof family.

However, none of this matters.

The important thing is that standing next to Victor is a man made entirely of water, with a trident in his hand, causing all the people present to kneel on one knee and shout "God of the Inner Bay".

Including Snarrow, who always wanted to stop the conflict.

When he saw this water man, Snaror knew that the situation in front of him was completely out of his control.

Extraordinary has been involved.

He, an ordinary sheriff, naturally couldn't control him.

That needs a big shot to manage.

For example, the young big man who airborne on his head directly replaced him and was promoted to deputy director.

Maybe the other side can?

Thinking of this, Snarlow couldn't help shaking his head.

There was a smile of anticipation, reluctance and a little timidity on the sheriff's face.

Very complicated.

However, the most complicated thing is Victor.

As the representative of the "God of the Inner Bay" in Port Marne, Victor was originally just a grocery store owner. His original purpose of joining the "God of the Inner Bay" was just to make a little more money—on the premise of the same things , those believers in the religion are more willing to buy items from him.

He is planning this profit.

But why did it become like this?

Is it because of the disaster just now?

Or is it because these are oracles?

Victor didn't know.

All he knew was that he needed to obey the arrangement of the 'God of the Neiwan'.

Not just awe.

Also because, he saw a greater benefit.

He wants more!

...

And everyone's expressions clearly fell into Goethe's eyes.

With the help of [Spirit of Blood Raven] and many [Inferior Spirit of Blood Raven], Goethe can observe everything carefully.

With multiple upgrades, [Spirit of Blood Crow] not only became stronger, but also more agile, completely becoming a qualified sentry, and even the Spirit of Secondary Blood Crow became easy to use.

After handing everything over to one [Spirit of Blood Crow] and several [Spirits of Lesser Blood Crow], Goethe looked at the diary and books in front of him again.

At this moment, Goethe once again returned to the original gold-filled palace in Nice.

The reading that was interrupted because of Margarita Margo was resumed at this moment.

However, Goethe still didn't find out why "they" changed their name to "them" and why they had to act in secret.

Ness's diary is extremely dreadful about this incident.

Except for the diary whose pages were torn out, there is no record.

Of course, Goethe did not fail to discover——

Heh, those guys really thought I was a fool.

You actually want me to be the first bird?

I am the real me in 'Inner Bay', leave 'Inner Bay'?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

...

One of those guys wouldn't be up to no good, would he?

That's how it should be!

I have to prepare in advance.

...

Just like I thought.

Some goddamn bastards have ideas for me.

However, this is in the 'Inner Bay'.

I am invincible!

I killed that guy!

There is also a harvest!

...

'Road' is not just the ultimate evolution of 'skills' and the ultimate 'body'?

The "Crazy King" guy's [occupation] is also okay?

I have to say, that is a genius guy.

...

Is there anyone born with a 'road'? !

What a surprise!

But what is it compared to me?

I can definitely create my own 'path'!

The path centered on the 'strange object' in my hand!

...

The path I have chosen is somewhat difficult!

However, it's hard for me!

I will definitely succeed.

...

Phase 1 failed!

Should I switch to a Wonder Item?

After all, it is too powerful in my hand!

...

Changed the wonder!

I see the dawn of success!

...

Failed!

That strange thing is a little fragile!

I have to find a rare item that is weaker than my hand, but not too weak!

...

Hahaha, the organization is split!

Just as I expected!

Some guys don't want to obey the so-called 'secret' rules!

let's hit! let's hit!

It's best to kill each other!

...

ten years!

Longer than I imagined.

However, those bastards were really hard-pressed, and they didn't even die.

Now?

Is it over?

Acting 'secretly'?

It doesn't have much to do with me, I'm already secretive enough in the 'Neiwan'.

...

The valuable things in the notes, stop here.

The rest, once again turned into bragging.

That kind of shamelessness really made Goethe feel ashamed.

It's almost like thinking of yourself as the creator.

Throwing down the notes in his hand, Goethe stood where he was, sorting out the information.

"The most basic and direct 'road' is the ultimate change of 'skills' and 'body'—this is best understood, and it's not too difficult for me."

"Just use [Bloody Honor] to charge directly."

"On the contrary, it's 'Mad King' who has some troubles with [occupation] as his path."

According to the information left by the 'Mad King', he must be promoted to 'Fearless', and then go to the 'Levin Islands' to find the corresponding information.

Moreover, once the promotion is completed, it will inevitably be targeted.

will likely face...

witch!

Thinking of this, Goethe frowned.

He didn't want to confront the witch if he could.

Because, not sure.

"We must continue to fight!"

"At least you must have the power to protect yourself!"

Goethe thought to himself.

At the same time, he frowned slightly.

Because in Nice's notes, there is no 'witch'!

There is a 'mad king' but no 'witch'!

This gave Goethe an eerie feeling.

"Why isn't 'The Witch' recorded?"

"What's the reason why he couldn't record the 'witch'?"

"still……"

"Pure fear?"

Goethe thought.

But no matter which one it is, it is not good news for him.

The former represented the 'witch' and the power he didn't know.

And the latter?

It made Goethe need to re-evaluate the 'witch'.

A guy who doesn't even pay attention to titled legends will be afraid of 'witches', so what kind of level will 'witches' be?

Coupled with the character of Nice, it can make the other party feel scared and fearful.

At least if the opponent is holding a trident, there is no chance of winning in the 'inner bay'.

As long as there is any chance of winning, with Nisi's arrogant character, he will not be so cowardly.

call!

Thinking of this, Goethe took a deep breath.

He became more and more determined to continue to strive for victory.

Goethe glanced at the [Bloody Honor] he had at the moment!

"33 copies!"

If it is normal, it can be called a lot.

but now?

For Goethe who wanted to hit the 'road', it was not enough.

“Hopefully the collection here will not disappoint me!”

Thinking of this, Goethe walked towards another side hall. This is Nice's laboratory, which has a strong [bloody honor] atmosphere. Of course, there are also places like bedrooms and collection rooms in the other side's apse. It's much worse.

It is different from the side hall with books on one side.

In the side hall of the laboratory, there is a faint smell of blood, mixed with other strange smells, and there are countless bottles and cans that catch the eye.

Some are test tubes, beakers, flasks, and Erlenmeyer flasks that Goethe is familiar with, but more are test tubes that Goethe doesn't know the names of, which rotate back and forth and have weird shapes.

Although the utensil Goethe cannot be distinguished, the liquid Goethe in the test tube is well known by relying on extraordinary knowledge.

However, there were still things that surprised Goethe.

[Blood of the Mad King: This is the blood essence of the seventeen heirs of the 'Mad King'. They were originally branches of the Tesin royal family, but they were hunted and killed by Nisi. King's powerful secret, and in order to make the experiment more smooth, Nice also hunted and killed six official members of Tesin's royal family. He finally discovered a little secret, but this kind of secret made him hesitate and made him even more dissatisfied. Dare to act rashly; effect: taking the potion in this test tube will allow you to get a trace of the real "mad king's blood", you will get unexpected power, talent, luck, but you will also encounter terrible bad luck and curse . 】

...

Goethe looked at the light red liquid in the test tube, his narrowed eyes were shining brightly.

"Although Nice despises the 'mad king' as much as possible in his diary, he collects things related to the 'mad king' very honestly—Tesin contributed a little to the decline of the royal family, and the rest' where are they?"

"According to Nice's description, there are also guys among 'them' who are very interested in the 'Mad King'."

While thinking, Goethe picked up the scalpel next to him.

[Bloody honor +23]

...

Unlike the Tesin royal family that was tragically fake later, the Tesin royal family at that time were all genuine.

After being picked up by Nice, he was bled and dissected with this scalpel.

Nice like this.

What about the rest of 'them'?

To put it simply, if he can find the guys among 'them' who are interested in the 'Mad King', he will definitely gain more. After all, unlike the arrogant and talkative guy like Niss, those people should be more radical That's right.

Thinking of this, Goethe became more clear about his next plan.

As for meeting 'them'?

That is inevitable.

He made such a big noise, 'they' must be aware of it.

And, it must be soon.

Thinking of this, Goethe walked towards the apse without stopping.

In this slightly messy apse, which combined a bedroom and a collection room, Goethe directly picked up a small knife.

[Skinning knife: This is a small knife specially made by Niss to skin the descendants of the 'Mad King', but the production is a bit rough. The four descendants of the 'Mad King' directly hurt to death, so Niss had to give up this handmade He had a small knife, but he was reluctant to throw it away, but put it in the collection cabinet. 】

[Bloody honor +4]

...

"It hurts to death?"

Although Goethe knew that being a descendant of the 'Mad King' was definitely a 'high-risk occupation', this kind of death still made him shudder.

You know, he is also a descendant of the 'Mad King' in name.

In order not to let myself follow in the footsteps.

Goethe didn't hesitate, glanced at the unprecedented amount of [Bloody Honor], and said directly——

"[Bloody Honor], add points!"
