Pirate Kingship

At this time, when he looked at the torn limbs held by the mithril guard, they all turned into wooden dolls.

The miraculous clown's tricks drew exclamations of surprise from the surrounding onlookers.

Moreover, [Bone-eating Clown] Kolaskin is not an unknown person in this sea.

The reason why he has the weird title of "Bone Eater" is because of his superb clown tricks.

It has reached the point where it can quietly steal the bones from the enemy's body without the enemy being able to react.

Once you are touched by his hands, it will definitely not end well.

Unfortunately, under the coverage of the Golden Law, the entire Taiman Islands are the royal territory and dragon nest of Regent Catherine, and there is no such thing as a sneak attack.

Realizing that the crazy [Bone-Eating Clown] was not dead, Catherine was still shocked and shouted coldly:

"Ridiculous! Do you think we [Mithril Knights] are those fragile beast trainers? Without the protection of beast masters, we are helpless against your attacks?

Die! "

He suddenly stomped his right foot wearing mithril boots.

A bright silver halo exploded all over his body, manifesting into a three-dimensional "Mary Chesky Circle" composed of lines, numbers and formulas.

White light flashed between his mouth and nose, and the silver moon bracelet on his wrist instantly expanded, turning into a two-handed giant sword with cold light.

Although it is a giant sword, the superior performance of mithril makes it no heavier than an ordinary swift sword, and it feels like a goose feather in the hand.

Clang——!

Under the perfect integration of "heart flow" with the body, mithril hands, and sword moves, he twisted his body and swung his sword.

With a flash of cold light, the clown's two pale arms flew straight into the sky.

The sword kept moving, flashing once, then again, and three times.

Not only the arm flying into the sky, but also all the gift boxes within three meters of her body were smashed to pieces in an instant.

The secret sword technique among the supreme arts [The Circle of Sacrifice].

Offer sacrifices to any enemy who dares to set foot within this circle, granting absolute death!

The Supreme Art only activates the lowest level of "Swordsman's Sword". The wanton murderous intent still makes people's hair stand on end and their bone marrow freezes.

Even though there were several third-level transcendent beings watching nearby, no one dared to step forward and test the edge of [The Circle of Sacrifice].

Catherine realized that there was something obviously abnormal about this clown, and it was definitely not the ability that a normal clown should have.

After one move, he did not relax his vigilance.

Instead, he exercised the power of the king—defined his own laws and decrees, and silently ordered in his heart:

“As the regent, I declare that the leader of the Clown Pirates [Bone-eating Clown] Kolaskin is a wanted criminal.

There is nowhere to hide and nowhere to live within the royal territory, and the law commands the death penalty! "

An invisible coercion suddenly descended on the battlefield.

This kind of death-defying order usually doesn't work on the same level, but Catherine doesn't believe that this elusive guy has really been unscathed so far.

Sure enough.

As soon as Catherine finished speaking, the puppet's limbs, which had been abandoned by the mithril guards, suddenly shook violently.

The broken wounds are connected by countless transparent threads, and they are about to be reassembled into a complete clown.

"Ah, this puppet is actually the real body of Kolaskin! Do you want to sneak attack again?"

“Even if [Clown Trick] is miraculous, its essence is just a combination of various illusions and extraordinary abilities.

Nothing can change the nature of his life.

I'm afraid there's something big wrong with this guy. "

"I heard that some time ago he led his flagship [Circus] deep into the 'World Serpent-Celestial Circulation Belt' where the New World is most likely hidden.

It didn't take long for them to encounter something unknown, and they fled back to the Bantaan Islands with heavy losses.

But everyone told him that he had made a major discovery, and would soon regroup and enter the celestial circulation, and his name would shine in the annals of history.

This guy may have encountered something that was of great benefit, but also extremely dangerous. "

Catherine also heard the whispers of other bystanders, and roughly determined the current state of the [Bone-Eating Clown].

"Human nature has obviously begun to deviate, away from divinity, and is constantly falling towards beasts.

If it doesn't get a strong enough anchor in a short period of time, I'm afraid it will really turn into an evil monster.

Why would such a troublesome and annoying guy come to our territory?

Don't let me know who is behind this lunatic who is about to lose himself, otherwise I will make you look good. "

His heart was racing, but the movements of his hands were not slow.

He immediately commanded the mithril guards to swing their weapons, completely knocking the limbs of the puppets around him into pieces, and cutting the threads into pieces.

Only the puppet's head reacted the fastest, opening its mouth wide and inflating rapidly like a balloon again.

When the mithril guard came at him with his spear, his head, which had expanded to the size of a carriage, exploded instantly.

Bang!

A large amount of sticky colored paint, whether it was brain matter or blood, was scattered all over the streets.

The disgusting stench filled half of the port area like a biological weapon.

Under their cover, few people noticed that many of the fragments that made up the puppet's head also flew away far away.

The colorful wigs, glass eyes, oil-painted wooden blocks, and other parts are all normal.

Only the ball-like red nose flew the farthest, and with the force of the impact, it flew all the way out of the port area and landed on the beach by the sea.

Then it squirmed slightly and grew a bunch of pale tentacles like a clown's mask, supporting the tip of its nose.

This was the only part of his body that was truly fleshy.

The nose with a bunch of tentacles was about to continue running towards the sea, but was suddenly stepped on by a military boot that fell from the sky.

"Squeak, squeak"

He struggled desperately and made sharp and strange noises, but he couldn't get away.

"After receiving the alarm, it wasn't too late to come back, and barely caught up with the end.

My sister is getting more and more violent.

However, a bone-eating clown? What the hell is this?"

The one who fell from the sky was Byron who hurried back.

He and Catherine received the invasion alarm of the Golden Law at the same time.

He immediately said goodbye to Bruch, who put on the mask again, and his fiancée [Fairy] Rigel, who was wearing Tilly's skin, and rushed back to the Taiman Islands with Jacqueline who still hadn't woken up.

[Golden Law] is the strongest eye in the sky, and there is no way to escape even if it's just a nose.

Catherine did not make a move, just because she found that Byron had rushed back, and she took care of his sense of participation.

"Jacqueline, this cheap cousin, has seen more and more secrets.

Before I advance to the third level and reveal my identity to the Lancaster Party, I will not let her out of my sight.

This guy is born with the potential to do big things."

He threw her to the beach casually.

At the same time, he threw a [Echo of History] towards the nose, which obviously had little power left, trying to read the information on it.

"Ga ga ga"

First, a few clowns' strange laughter came to his ears, and then the beach in front of him twisted, and a layer of weird scenes like a circus appeared.

The colorful scene was not real, and the nasal cavity was filled with a strong smell of blood. The brain was as disgusting as if it had ridden dozens of roller coasters.

At the same time, there were shadows all around, and a group of weird clowns in different costumes were walking towards him step by step with weird smiles.

It was not until the Storm Signet Ring's ability to resist the curse was activated that Byron suddenly came back to his senses and his face changed:

"Cursed Spirit!"

At this time, new words appeared on the logbook in his right eye:

"Part of the Bone-Eating Clown Koraskin, the leader of the Clown Pirates.

[Level 0 Cursed Spirit·Life-Saving Clown] Polluted"

Due to the level of both parties, Byron could only read so much information.

But the mid- and high-sequence extraordinary people, as well as the top leaders of various countries, are not unfamiliar with the name of Life-Saving Clown.

The immortal cursed spirit [The Clown]:

"Long before the clown profession was born, the prototype was just a disguised murderer who used cruel means to create a large number of missing children.

In the end, he was caught by angry citizens, who retaliated by peeling off his skin alive.

Then, this human skin that was paraded through the streets became a cursed object under strong resentment: a wig, a red nose, and a three-piece suit of clothes.

It is also called a "clown suit".

The appearance of a clown was born in the world for the first time.

It will seduce humans to wear it, but once the clothes are put on, they can never take them off. Instead, they will grow completely together with the wearer, and then slowly turn into a man-eating monster.

Until the next time it is killed.

And the clown suit has the characteristics of "playful life". As the power increases, it can tease fate and make it impossible for any prophecy to lock it.

The power of fear is constantly being released, and the power of the clown is also Continuously strengthened.

It eventually polluted an entire city on the Old World, turning its hometown and birthplace into a huge and terrifying black fairy tale paradise. "

"Not only that.

It also used the paradise as a medium to open up a gap between the real world and the Sea of ​​​​Source, allowing many dark fairy tales in historical legends to invade the real world with that paradise as the core.

It caused a huge extraordinary natural disaster.

Like the holy relics, the rating of zero means that the clown is enough to threaten the entire world.

The image of the clown has also become synonymous with terror. "

Byron recalled the various clowns he had seen since he was a child, and subconsciously shuddered:

"How could anyone in the world find this kind of thing funny?

They have stepped firmly into the uncanny valley of mankind, okay? "

The scholars of the Tower Sequence made a statistics of the things that humans fear from "the least human-like" to "the most human-like".

It was found that when things are "like humans, but not so human-like", they can trigger the strongest fear in the audience.

This is: the uncanny valley.

Corpses, ghosts, and clowns are all in the uncanny valley.

However, in the mainstream concept, why do residents of the Old World think that clowns are a comic character when they mention them?

This is because the church's [Night Watch] department really can't think of a good way to seal the other party.

They can only mobilize the Silver Law and pay a huge price to modify the entire reality level of memes.

Starting from the bottom of the collective subconscious of the entire human race, most humans are no longer afraid of the image of clowns, and even forcibly associate them with funny things.

Of course, this also leads to some unpredictable side effects, called a "memory bias effect":

The public's collective memory of history is often inconsistent with the facts.

For example: I clearly remember that a celebrity has died many years ago, but suddenly I see the news of his memorial service in the newspaper.

There is a serious deviation between group memory and reality. If you recall carefully, there are many similar things.

At the same time, a new profession, [Clown], also appeared in the Hall Sequence.

Every clown who brings happiness to the audience is a dam to seal the [Funny Clown].

Even so, some scholars have conducted a questionnaire survey, and more than a quarter of the respondents still firmly stated that they are afraid of clowns.

This is the most instinctive survival reaction of human beings, which is difficult to eradicate.

It also gives the terrifying [Funny Clown] enough power to break through the mental defense of the clown profession from time to time.

It transforms them into evil spirits and grotesques similar to themselves bit by bit.

The polluted clown will gain strange mutant abilities based on the five clown tricks: disappearance, change, prediction, suspension, and perspective.

Sometimes the Funny Clown will respond to the ritual and send part of the cursed clown costume that he is attached to, such as a hair, to the real world.

Forming various secondary cursed objects.

It is said that where there are humans and fear, there will be Funny Clowns.

The Bone-Eating Clown is not the first and definitely not the last fallen being polluted by this cursed spirit.

After seeing the super-standard existences such as the Kraken's Touch, the Thousand-Faced Serpent Hydra, and the Mother of Creation Lilith.

Byron suspected that the Life-Playing Clown might have reached that super-standard level.

And unlike those dead beings before the epoch, it is still alive!
