Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Regarding the specific attack time of the "Deep Blue" pirate group, Odis and the people of Cruise Island had a relatively consistent idea: this weekend or early next week.

This was the result of calculations based on time.

More than ten days ago, Pres and others had a falling out with the people sent by the "Deep Blue" pirate group, and Pres killed several members of the "Deep Blue" pirate group.

Judging by the time, the "Deep Blue" pirate group would almost be able to complete the preparations and return to Cruise Island in these ten days or so.

The reason it took so long to complete the preparations was partly because Egbert, the captain of the "Ghost Ship", did not expect the negotiations to end like this.

According to Pres and others' forced confessions from the members of the "Deep Blue" pirate group, their captain was already at Midway Island in the central route, purchasing equipment for mining.

It was evident that Egbert did not realize that Pres and the others would reject the conditions he offered and kill his men.

The people he sent to Cruise Island were more like notifying the people of Cruise Island than negotiating.

In addition, this was also a common trick used by pirates.

During these ten days, the people of Cruise Island would definitely spend their time in worry and fear. When the pirates really arrived, the psychological defenses of many people might have already collapsed.

In fact, as Egbert expected, nearly half of the North Continent people living in the port had already fled to the surrounding islands and were ready to join the "Deep Blue" pirate group at any time.

This result was not bad for Odis. Although the time was a bit tight, there were still one or two days to prepare.

Just after completing the deployment on Saturday, the "Deep Blue" pirate group appeared on Sunday.

However, what appeared was not their fleet, but a single ship, heading towards "Moon Bay".

The entire port immediately became tense, and even many residents had already taken their luggage, which they had prepared long ago, and fled to the deep mountains, while others planned to find their families who were ambushing in the northern part of the island or Lighthouse Hill.

Odis was too lazy to stop them. He came to the pier of the port town alone, looking out at the ship that was sailing in.

At this time, the streets were already in chaos. Adults were running around in panic, many children were crying, and incidents of looting and fighting often occurred.

The former town mayor, Pres, was yelling loudly, but because there were no police officers to help, no one took his words seriously anymore.

Pres saw Odis and quickly ran over to ask, "Where are the reinforcements?"

Odis glanced at the ship that was slowly sailing towards "Moon Bay": "What reinforcements?"

"Your guess is completely wrong!" Pres finally mustered up the courage to say: "Egbert saw through your arrangement and sent a ship directly to attack our port!"

"Didn't I tell you that there are Egbert's people everywhere in the port? He already knew your…"

Odis raised his hand and asked, "Is that Egbert's flagship, the 'Ghost Ship'?"

Pres was stunned: "No, it's not."

"Then which ship of the 'Deep Blue' pirate group is it?" Odis handed the telescope to Pres: "Look for yourself and tell me which ship it is."

After looking for a while, Pres was surprised to find: "It's not a 'Deep Blue' pirate ship?"

"Idiot!" Odis said coldly: "The enemy just sent a target to test us, and you're already so scared."

Of course, he knew that Egbert knew that the "Sword of Dawn" pirate group had landed on the island not long after he landed on the island.

In Odis's view, the "Red Lion" pirate group had been wiped out for several days, and Egbert must have heard some news about the "Sword of Dawn" pirate group.

But he certainly had no way to verify the authenticity of those news. For Egbert, who had a ghost ship, it didn't matter even if most of those news were true.

His ghost ship gave him enough confidence.

However, to be on the safe side, he still had to send a ship, hang up his pirate flag, and test the firepower.

Of course, Odis would not give him such a chance. From this morning, the "Argo" began to circumnavigate the island.

Because Odis realized that this was a test, he did not intend to use the weapons on the "Argo" to fight. When he came, he had already let the "Argo" stop on the west side of the island.

Odis looked at Pres, whose expression was very rich: "What are you waiting for here? Go and organize the two squads you command to maintain order!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Pres then shouted loudly: "Idiots, open your dog eyes and take a good look. That's not Egbert's ship at all!"

"There are no cannons or sailors on the ship! Don't run! Egbert hasn't come yet!"

These words played a significant role, at least calming down most of the residents who had already panicked.

Odis had already noticed at this time that it was a medium-sized merchant ship, and it looked like it had just been looted by the "Deep Blue" pirate ship.

Before entering "Moon Bay", the crew and sailors on the ship were waving white sheets, indicating that they were willing to surrender.

At this time, the residents had basically calmed down. Pres and his subordinates spontaneously came to the pier, watching the ship slowly sail into "Moon Bay".

Odis said to Pres on the side: "Shout to the ship and tell them to stop the ship in the center of 'Moon Bay', and all the crew members swim over."

Pres immediately asked several of his subordinates with loud voices to shout together. The people on the merchant ship obediently stopped the ship in the center of "Moon Lake", and the crew members jumped into the water one by one, swimming towards the pier.

This time, without Odis's order, Pres quickly asked his subordinates to prepare ropes and squat near the pier, waiting for them to come ashore and tie them up.

More than twenty minutes later, the dozen or so crew members were tied up and brought to Odis.

Odis asked: "When did you encounter the 'Deep Blue' pirate group?"

One of the middle-aged men with some baldness said: "The day before yesterday… Sir, we are not pirates, we were just forced by Egbert to hang up the pirate flag."

Odis said "Hmm": "You are the… of this ship?"

"First mate." The bald middle-aged man immediately said: "I am the first mate of the 'Monis', and the captain has been killed."

Odis nodded: "There should be pirates among you, right?"

"I don't know." The first mate said: "The dozen of us come from several different ships, and we are all Egbert's prisoners."

To be precise, they were the surviving prisoners.

Odis was about to take out the "Faceless Pendant" to identify them, but suddenly thought that he should shock Pres and others again.

So he said: "Keep an eye on them, I'll be right back."

Without waiting for Pres and others to answer, Odis had already thrown out a "Flying Scroll" and flew towards the southern plains.

Pres and others exclaimed when they saw this scene.

Many people had seen Donahue and others flying back before, but they couldn't explain how they suddenly learned to fly. They only knew that it was related to "Captain Gahr".

Now the people on the pier knew that "Captain Gahr" could really fly! He could also give others the ability to fly.

They still didn't understand what was going on, but they all admired or feared "Captain Gahr" even more.

Of course, Odis flew away on purpose in order to create enough mystery.

This was also a question that Odis had only thought of in the past few days. Even if he became the town mayor, he couldn't completely rule the town by using his own authority like an ordinary town mayor, but he had to have enough mystery.

After all, he was a Beyonder of the "Secrets Listener" pathway. After reaching the "Middle Sequence", if he had mystery himself, he could get very good feedback from the reactions of the people around him.

Most of the time, this was also part of the acting.

The "Scroll Professor" did not have much demand for this, but the "Wizard" and "Astrologer", as well as the higher sequences, had similar demands.

Therefore, Odis believed that he should have enough mystery as soon as he came to Cruise Island.

Soon, Odis flew back with Noy and pointed to the crew members: "There should be a few pirates in there. You can identify them."

This kind of thing was not difficult to guess. The ship called "Monis" was here to test the firepower.

Planting a few pirates on this ship could monitor these prisoners. If the purpose of testing the firepower was seen through, they would not open fire on them.

These pirates could also enter the port smoothly and contact the spies in the town when the time was right.

Normally speaking, even if Odis opened fire on them, they would have enough time to jump into the sea and swim away.

Of course, that was according to normal circumstances. If they encountered the "Spirit Wave Cannon", they would not be able to run away.

After hearing the captain's order, Noy took out a coin and asked the man who had just called himself the first mate while playing with it: "Are you a member of the 'Deep Blue' pirate group?"

The first mate replied: "No."

Noy flicked the coin, looked at the divination result, and then came to the second person: "Are you a member of the 'Deep Blue' pirate group?"

He asked several people in a row, and flicked the coin every time he finished asking.

Pres and others looked confused, not knowing what this lady was doing? But they didn't dare to ask.

Until he asked the fifth person, Noy flicked the coin, caught it, and was stunned. He said to Odis: "He is a pirate!"

Odis walked over, reached out and pulled out the revolver he was carrying, and shot the pirate in the head.

He hadn't carried a gun for a while. Now he was carrying a revolver again, mainly for deterrence. It was also convenient to use in this kind of occasion.

Bang~

The pirate was about to quibble when a bullet pierced his head, and he fell to the ground in a pool of blood.

This made Preston and the others swallow hard, feeling as if the bullet had not only pierced the pirate's head but had also tapped them on the head.

Before this, although they all knew that the person in front of them was the captain of a pirate crew, they didn't have a concrete idea.

Now, seeing him kill a pirate without even questioning him, they suddenly had a concrete understanding of what a pirate captain was.

Noy continued the identification process and quickly identified another pirate. Odis, carrying a gun, approached him, but before he could even raise the gun, the pirate knelt on the ground: “Don't shoot, don't shoot! I… I know there are informants planted by the captain in the town. If you don't kill me, I'll help you find them.”

Odis nodded and said to Preston, "Gag him. I'll interrogate him later."

Preston was stunned. Wouldn't it be better to interrogate him now and catch those spies? Why wait to interrogate him separately later?

However, he didn't dare to question "Captain Gahr's" orders now, and immediately had someone gag the pirate and tie him up securely.

Just as Noy was about to continue the identification process, another pirate among the remaining crew members knelt down and also said he could help catch the spies.

The rest of the people were just ordinary crew members.

Odis ordered these ordinary crew members to be locked up first, given some food and water, and asked the town's doctors to carefully examine them to see if anyone had contracted an infectious disease.

Sometimes, pirates would deliberately send prisoners with smallpox to a certain port. Soon, smallpox would rage in the port, and the pirates would take advantage of this to suddenly attack the port.

They were a bunch of villains who could use any despicable means.

Especially when a battle with pirates was about to take place, and in a world with "Extraordinary Viruses", it was of course necessary to carefully examine the prisoners when receiving them.

Regardless of whether any diseases were detected, they would be quarantined for a period of time first.

Then, Odis asked Preston to choose a few trusted subordinates and find a room with good soundproofing to interrogate the two pirates.

However, after escorting the pirates into the room, Odis ordered: "No one is to conduct the interrogation, and no one is to remove the gags from their mouths."

Preston was stunned again: "No interrogation?"

Odis didn't answer his question but said, "From now on, no one except me is allowed to leave here.

“Noy, you watch them. Anyone who tries to leave here is a spy. Don't hesitate, shoot them.”

“Yes.” Noy moved a chair, sat at the door, drew her revolver, and quietly watched Preston and the others.

Noy wasn't like Sarena. She seemed quite quiet, but as she sat there quietly, her aura was overwhelming, and Preston and the others immediately gave up the idea of going out.

Preston smiled at Odis and said, "Mayor, is there some misunderstanding? I've killed Egbert's crew members, how could I be a spy?"

“I know you're not,” Odis said. “But now I need your cooperation to catch those spies.”

Preston still didn't quite understand Odis's intention: "I… Then why not interrogate these two people?”

Odis smiled and said, “Looking at them, I understand that they only know one or two spies. What they said at the pier earlier was just to save their lives.

“But we can't let them speak. Do you believe that as soon as they open their mouths, they will say that some of the most capable police officers are spies.

“They might even say that some of the people who truly want to fight against the 'Deep Blue' pirate crew are spies.”

Preston looked at the two pirates and saw fear in their eyes.

The former mayor took a deep breath. He knew very well that these two pirates' plans had been completely guessed by this "Captain Gahr."

Preston also sat down in a chair: "I will wait here until you let me out."

Then he said to his subordinates: "You must also stay here. Even when you go to pee, you must go together in pairs and monitor each other.

“If anyone dares to go out that door, even without Ms. Noy shooting, I will kill you!”

Odis nodded in satisfaction: "Leave the rest to me."

He waited for another half an hour before going out and asking the two captains guarding the port to organize manpower to prepare food for the people ambushing in the northern part of the island and on "Lighthouse Hill."

When explaining the task, he casually said: "The task of preparing food today will be left to you. Preston will slowly interrogate the two pirates today."

The two captains naturally inquired about the results of the interrogation.

Odis only said: "I will first solve the spies ambushing in the north and on 'Lighthouse Hill' before taking the next step."

Besides these two captains, there were also several other people present who knew that many spies had been identified.

This was also reasonable. After all, they were pirates. After this "Captain Gahr" shot a pirate to death right away, they would definitely tell all the information they knew in order to save their lives.

Soon, this news spread throughout the town, and many people felt much more at ease.

Odis arrived at the positions in the northern part of the island and on "Lighthouse Hill" one after another. He didn't kill anyone here, but just issued an order: anyone who quietly leaves here is a spy and can be shot to death immediately.

That day, the "Deep Blue" pirate crew didn't launch a new offensive, and they didn't even see their shadows on the sea.

At this time, Odis deployed the "Extraordinary Puppets" to the positions and deployed an "Extraordinary Machine Gun" and an "Extraordinary Mortar" in the northern and southern parts of the island, respectively.

These masked "crew members" made the people of Cruise Island look sideways, but they didn't dare to look closely because they felt that those "crew members" looked like people and monsters, and seemed quite scary.

At night, a thick fog rose at sea. Because the visibility was very poor, the "Argo" which had been cruising, also stopped in the northwest of the island.

At around nine o'clock, Basel, who was guarding the north, was staring blankly at the sea and the fog in front of him. The captain had just been here and told him to urge those sentries and not to slack off.

Because this fog was very strange, it was estimated that the pirates of the "Deep Blue" pirate crew would definitely take advantage of the fog to land, but now Odis couldn't tell whether they would land from the south or the north.

Relatively speaking, the north was easier to defend because there were many reefs in the offshore area in this direction. Large ships couldn't get too close to the shore, so they could only put down small boats and let the crew members swim ashore quietly.

The reason why Odis believed that the enemy would definitely land from here was because if they landed from here, there was a certain probability that the defending side could be caught off guard.

Even if there were people stationed here, the pirates would definitely make some attempts.

Because the beach in the north was very long, with the level of the residents on Cruise Island, it was impossible to spread out three hundred people to guard the beach.

Then they would have the opportunity to land. As long as they entered the rainforest, those three hundred people would not be able to stop them at all.

Just as he was thinking about this, a sentry came to report to Basel that they heard someone talking in the sea.

Basel immediately took two "Extraordinary Puppets" to check, while the combat captain Cleveland and the dozens of police officers did not follow.

Arriving at the sentry's defense location, Basel first threw out a "Gale Scroll".

Whoosh ~

The scroll exploded, and a gust of wind suddenly blew up, and the thick fog on the sea was immediately blown and rolled, and quickly blown away, creating a not small space.

Then Basel took out a "Blazing Sun Scroll" and stuffed it into the "Extraordinary Mortar" carried by an "Extraordinary Puppet": "Activate combat mode and launch it into the air."

After receiving the order, the "Extraordinary Puppet" immediately knelt on one knee and pulled the trigger in the most standard posture.

In addition to launching "Extraordinary Shells", the "Extraordinary Mortar" also had another function: launching scrolls.

The scroll could be launched with the "Extraordinary Shell". After the "Extraordinary Shell" exploded, the scroll would immediately explode, releasing the corresponding extraordinary ability.

At this time, after the "Blazing Sun Scroll" was launched with the "Extraordinary Shell", the "Extraordinary Shell" exploded in mid-air, and the "Blazing Sun Scroll" also exploded immediately.

For a time, a small sun seemed to appear in mid-air, illuminating the sea in front of him clearly.

Basel saw that in the sea in front of him, there were two pirates sitting on the reefs protruding from the sea chatting. At a glance, he knew that they were attracting the attention of the people on the shore.

And in the place where the "Blazing Sun Scroll" was about to no longer illuminate, a large number of pirates were swimming towards the beach.

They seemed to be undulating pottery jars, carrying weapons, quietly avoiding the reefs, and swimming towards the shore.

This scene stunned several sentries. In addition to surprise, they also trembled, because at this time, Mr. Basel would definitely not be able to rush over to stop them.

If they let this group of people land… They had even imagined the scene of their families being killed and the town being burned to the ground.

Basel took a deep breath and said in a somewhat relieved tone: "I've finally waited for you!"

Then he ordered the "Extraordinary Puppet" carrying the "Extraordinary Machine Gun" next to him: "Kill the two people chatting idly on the reef."

Without error, one shot, one hit!

Those two pirates were very cunning. The location they were in was even beyond the range of the rifles.

However, what they didn't know was that they were within the range of the "Extraordinary Machine Gun."

Da da ~

After receiving the order, the "Extraordinary Puppet" fired in bursts, and one of the two pirates was immediately cut in half at the waist and turned into two pieces, and the other's left shoulder and head were blown away.

This scene stunned the sentries. It was the first time they had seen a gun with such power and range.

Then, they looked at the two “Extraordinary Puppets” with some fear. The two masked figures always gave people the feeling that they weren't alive.

Baze ordered a few sentries to continue guarding, while he led the two “Extraordinary Puppets” to provide support.

At this time, Cleveland had led the dozens of police officers to the opposite side of the pirates who were landing.

He threw out a "Blazing Sun Scroll" with all his might, instantly illuminating the beach and a stretch of coastline: "Free fire!"

These police officers were all decent shots. As the gunshots rang out one after another, pirates were killed or wounded.

They struggled desperately in the sea, but still sank to the bottom little by little.

… …

At this time, the able-bodied young men stationed on the south shore of the island vaguely heard the gunshots. They immediately became nervous and looked at "Captain Gal" who was sitting there motionless.

Captain Gal did not immediately issue orders or take any action, but seemed to be waiting for something.

However, in front of them, there seemed to be only fog, and nothing else.

At this time, their hiding place was in the most prominent village on the south bank. In the fog, they hid behind the houses, making it difficult to spot their traces from the beach.

It wasn't until the gunshots from the north shore became sparse that Odis felt the time was right. He suddenly threw out a "Gale Scroll" and then, like Baze, fired a "Blazing Sun Scroll" from the "Extraordinary Mortar".

Under the intense light, the pirates had already landed on the beach not far from them.

Although they were not directly facing the pirates, the "Extraordinary Machine Gun" could completely hit them.

Odis said to the “Extraordinary Puppet” holding the “Extraordinary Machine Gun”: “Activate combat mode and strafe the people on the beach.”

Da da da da ~

The “Extraordinary Puppet” pulled the trigger, and a series of bullets swept out. Wells and others beside Odis saw a terrifying scene.

The orange-red bullets, forming a straight line, exploded on the beach. In the first two or three seconds, each bullet took one or two lives.

The pirates' flesh was simply vulnerable to the bullets, mercilessly torn apart, and finally shattered on the ground.

The pirates on the beach were completely stunned for two or three seconds before screaming and running back.

At this time, the people running back overlapped with those who were landing. Odis pointed to the most densely populated area of the enemy and said to the “Extraordinary Puppet” carrying the “Extraordinary Mortar”: “Fire a shot there.”

Boom ~

The power of the “Extraordinary Rocket” was similar to that of the “Explosion Scroll”. For a time, seven or eight pirates were blown away, leaving a large pit on the beach. The shock wave overturned the surrounding pirates.

This shot made the pirates cry out!

Odis then ordered: “Advance and shoot at the enemy!”

The “Extraordinary Puppet” holding the “Extraordinary Machine Gun” quickly moved forward. Its legs were sprinting wildly, but its upper body was very stable, shooting while sprinting.

Soon, all the pirates who landed were wiped out.

Odis began to let the “Extraordinary Puppet” extend its fire. Except for a few who escaped by diving, the dozens of pirates were killed on the beach or in the sea.

Odis glanced at the sea. In the fog, there seemed to be a ship.

However, the distance was too far, exceeding the range of the “Extraordinary Mortar”, and at this time the “Extraordinary Machine Gun” had entered the rest phase, so Odis did not continue to pursue the escaped pirates.

He believed they would definitely bring back the news that the enemy had very powerful, rapid-firing guns and a portable cannon.

Then Egbert, combining the information he had obtained, would probably have a judgment on the firepower of the "Sword of Dawn" pirate group, and would easily confuse the "Extraordinary Machine Gun" with the "Extraordinary Machine Cannon".

Odis stretched out his hand to the back: “Clean up the battlefield.”

At this time, Wells, Grant, and others, who were frightened, did not react for a while. It was not until Odis issued the order a second time that they seemed to react and led the young adults of their respective villages to the beach.

After arriving at the beach, half of them vomited. There was a strong smell of blood here, and there were limbs and broken arms everywhere. The first reaction of people who had never seen such a scene was to vomit.

They really didn't expect the battle to start in this way and end in a way that completely suppressed firepower.

They hadn't even seen the faces of the enemies clearly before the war was over.

“Don’t keep them waiting too long.” Odis said to Wells and others, “Every second now is torment for them.”

Some were seriously injured and hadn't died for a while, still making heart-wrenching or weak cries.

Only then did Wells and others understand what “Captain Gal” had called them to do, so they took out their weapons and went to end their pain.

Odis glanced at the port, a little worried, so he left Rupert in charge here, and he used a “Flight Scroll” to go to the port.

… …

Port Town.

The gunshots from the north shore sounded clearer here. When the gunshots rang out, many people went out to check the situation.

However, in the thick fog, nothing could be seen clearly, only bursts of gunfire could be heard.

At this time, a thin middle-aged man, under the cover of the fog, quietly hid in an alley and then quickly fled.

He was Egbert's informant. Originally, he was among the safest people on this island.

If Egbert won, he would not be killed because he was an informant.

And if the residents of the island won, no one would know his identity as an informant, and he would also be safe.

But now he was no longer safe, because in the morning, two pirates from the “Deep Blue” pirate group had been caught.

It was said that they had already confessed some people, and "Captain Gal" had gone to the north coast and "Lighthouse Hill" to arrest people.

The former town mayor, Press, had not appeared in people's sight for most of the day. It was estimated that he had been interrogating the pirates and had just caught people.

The thin middle-aged man was not sure when they would confess him, so he decided to escape from the town first and come back after everything was over.

Leaving the town from the alley would take a long way. The thin middle-aged man, whose physical strength was not very good, ran out of breath and finally came to the edge of the town.

Until now, no one had noticed him, which made him very satisfied with the route he had chosen.

Just as he walked out of the town, suddenly he heard footsteps coming from his side, and a voice said sternly: “Stop!”

How could the thin middle-aged man obey this order? He turned around and ran.

Salina, who was waiting around, rushed over like a gust of wind. The fog was stirred by the wind she brought up and rolled.

She punched the thin middle-aged man away: “I told you to stop, didn’t you hear me?”

Then she rushed over and said to the young adults who came from the southern plains village: “Tie him up.”

At this time, Salina also saw someone poking their head out and coming out of the alley: “Stop… Forget it, go to hell.”

She kicked that person away.

She led the young adults from two villages and guarded the town near the mountains, while Boris led the young adults from four villages and guarded the dock.

When Odis came, Salina had a good harvest here and had already caught several people. Boris had even more harvest and caught more than a dozen people in a while.

At this time, Odis released Press and others and asked Noi to help the former town mayor interrogate the spies who had just been caught.

Then, Odis went to the north coast. The battle here was also very smooth. The pirates were blocked on the beach by dozens of guns.

Baze led the “Extraordinary Puppets” to arrive. After a burst of strafing, the pirates suddenly collapsed, leaving more than thirty corpses and a dozen seriously injured pirates.

At this time, Baze was directing everyone to clean up the battlefield. The battlefield here was not as bloody as the south bank of the island. The faces of the people who participated in the battle were generally smiling.

This battle killed so many pirates, and only five of them were injured.

And it wasn't because of the pirates that they were injured, but because they fell during the running process. Some fell and broke their heads, and some even broke an arm.

For these untrained people, night battles in the jungle were unavoidable.

But fortunately, the ending was good. Although the coastline of the north shore was long, Baze did not fall into the pirates' trap and did not easily mobilize the main force, which gave the dozens of police officers enough reaction time.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Odis asked them to send people back to the port to report the victory on the north shore.

Then, Odis began to count the spoils. The most decent loot was three Extraordinary Characteristics.

The north shore also seized three Extraordinary Characteristics, but the level was not high, all of which were “Low Sequence” characteristics.

Also, they harvested two wanted heads, with a total value of only 500 pounds.

That is to say, in the previous battle, the opponent's main force and important figures did not participate in the battle. This was actually a probing attack.

The rest of the spoils were some weapons, which Odis simply gave to the people who participated in the battle.

After cleaning up the spoils, Police Chief Tom asked what to do with the injured pirate prisoners.

Odis glanced at him: “There are no prisoners!”

The battle had just begun, and of course he would not spare manpower to guard these unstable factors.

Tom's eyes narrowed: “Yes… Yes…”

As midnight approached, news of the northern battlefield victory reached the town, and everyone rejoiced, as if victory was just ahead.

Press, after interrogation, had captured more than thirty spies.

Several of these people died under the fists and feet of the residents, and the rest were injured.

Audis ordered them all to be locked up and dealt with after the battle.

At this time, Audis's orders would not encounter any obstacles, and everyone now sincerely obeyed the orders of this "Captain Gahr".

… …

At night, in the eastern part of the turbulent Berserk Sea, in the cockpit of the flagship "Star Admiral", the "Future".

Cattleya stared blankly at the bookshelf in front of her. On the table in front of her was a copy of the "Loftsted Daily" sent by her subordinates.

The headline on the front page of this newspaper was news from four days ago: The "Red Lion" pirate group was wiped out by a mysterious pirate ship.

After a long while, Cattleya sighed, "Is it flying the flag of 'Dawn of Elements'?"

After seeing the news about this pirate ship called "Argo", Cattleya had an indescribable feeling in her heart. Generally, when this feeling appeared, her spirituality was reminding her that this was very important news.

She felt that this ship should be very important to the "Mysterious Queen", and its importance might affect herself through the "Queen"?

… …

On the island where the Abraham family's "Extraordinary Transfer Station" is located.

The "Kreek" pirate group had set up camp in front of the tall wall and waited for several days.

Tonight, everyone was awake, staring at the illusory mirror that suddenly appeared on the tall wall.

On the tall wall, the mirror finally became solid, and the figure of the director of the "Knowledge Church" appeared in the mirror. Soon, through the mirror, she finally came out of the "Extraordinary Transfer Station".

The "Pain Witch" then bowed slightly to the air on one side: "Thank you for your help."

A particularly sweet voice sounded in the air: "Evacuate quickly, and don't explore inside anymore."

The speaker was the "Scarlet Saint", who was also trapped before. The two demigods who were trapped inside took more than a day to escape.

However, rescuing this Sequence 5 "Pain Witch" took a lot of effort, and even an angel provided help before finally helping her escape.

The "Pain Witch" respectfully said: "Yes."

Then she asked again: "May I ask, who destroyed this 'Extraordinary Transfer Station' before?"

The sweet voice in the air said: "The Primordial One gave a hint: knowledge."

"Knowledge?" The "Pain Witch" asked, "People from the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom?"

"No, I think it may involve 'knowledge' itself."

The "Pain Witch" opened her mouth, suddenly realizing that the level involved in this matter was very high.

… …

Around Cruz Island, on the misty sea.

A classic-style sailing ship with a large hull suddenly cut through the fog, slowly cruising forward.

This is Egbert's flagship: the Ghost Ship.

Behind this ship were three more large or medium-sized sailing ships.

Egbert stood at the bow of the "Ghost Ship", looking at Cruz Island not far away.

The sudden fog on the sea was the ability of the "Ghost Ship".

In this sea area, the "Ghost Ship's" owner, Egbert, could see through the fog and see the scene in front of him clearly.

"Captain." First Mate Yarlin strolled to the bow: "I don't think continuing the battle is a good idea."

At the meeting that had just ended, Egbert redeployed and decided to launch a general attack at dawn on Tuesday.

The first mate continued: "They are flying the flag of 'Dawn of Elements'!"

"If they weren't out of their minds, why would they be interested in this godforsaken, remote island that doesn't even have shit?" Egbert said in an icy tone: "Which pirate would be interested in a son-of-a-bitch iron mine?"

As he spoke, Egbert took a deep breath before patting the hull of the ship: "But since we're using this ship, we have to pay some price."
