Pirate Sequence: Start with Outlaws

Luen asked Carter to pack up the adventurers' relics, and then went into the tent to search.

As soon as he opened the tent door, he was also startled by two heads with big round eyes and unblinking eyes.

Then he sighed helplessly.

Little Carter has always been full of dark humor.

The structure inside the tent is also very simple, with a table surrounded by some daily utensils and messy junk weapons.

Rune searched the tent for a while, and finally found two cube boxes with a length, width and height of fifty centimeters each under the table.

Opening the first box, a pile of potions in glass jars came into view.

——

[Alchemy props]: Underwater breathing potion

[Level]: Lv.10

[Ability]: After use, you can maintain breathing underwater for thirty minutes.

PS: Even if you can really breathe underwater, you can’t do whatever you want.

——

The potions are divided into two layers: upper and lower, with 25 bottles on one layer and 50 bottles in total.

Presumably for Hydra believers.

On Luen's warship, some underwater breathing medicines were prepared for the soldiers, and Luen also tried them personally.

This potion is not as practical as imagined.

But it is still somewhat helpful for underwater operations.

It just so happened that the medicine on the warship was lost, so some of it was made up for here.

"It seems that these guys are also interested in the bottom of Rainbow Bay."

Rune put away the potions. The moment he saw these potions, it was not difficult to guess why the Hydra cultists came here.

Even those Hydra believers who are not in the stronghold at the moment are a group of people working underwater.

But these potions alone should not be able to arouse the interest of a Sequence 7.

Lu En immediately opened the second box and found something different.

Inside this box is a key!

The key is silver in color, with complex patterns on the tail and a cross lock head in the front.

Looking at the pattern on the key, Lu En couldn't help but frown.

After thinking for a while, he remembered that there were some patterns similar to this key on top of the ancient demon god's alchemy cannon!

"This thing also came out of the Tomb of Constantine!" Lu En immediately concluded, "So, the purpose of those guys coming here is similar to mine. It's just that their purpose is related to this key."

Putting the keys away, Rune stepped out of the tent, and Carter had already put away all the loot.

"Captain, plus the two Sequence 8s and several Sequence 9s we killed earlier, we have gained a lot this time!" Little Carter put several storage props in Rune's hands, "There are eleven storage props in total. One of them has a lot of space!”

"The remaining gold coins total one thousand and five, and there are hundreds of alchemy props and miscellaneous items. They are estimated to be worth five to six hundred gold coins."

"In addition, there are ten sequence 8 strength scrolls, five healing scrolls, and five protection scrolls."

"The rest are those people's broken weapons, which together are worth only a hundred gold coins."

"The best ones are this crossbow, this hammer, and this amulet!"

Little Carter counted the trophies one by one and recorded them in a small notebook.

She has devoted herself entirely to her role as Rune's "second-in-command."

"Well done, Pirate Carter." Luen roughly checked out the relevant things, and what he said was pretty much the same as what little Carter said.

He immediately put on Vasily's storage item, a small box the size of a quarter of a palm.

The storage space inside is dozens of times larger than Rune's original ring. It is a cube with a length, width and height of about five meters.

After sorting all the items, Luen immediately changed little Carter's equipment.

Except for her dagger, all the other adventurer's equipment that can be used is basically given to her.

Includes a pair of leather boots, a pair of gauntlets, and a hood.

After being refined by Rune's "Super-Order Alchemy Array", it is very easy to just adjust the size of the strange object.

Including ten scrolls, all were given to little Carter.

As an extraordinary person in the agility department, she needs these things even more.

And Rune's own defense is already stronger than the Sequence 8 scroll defense, so naturally it won't be used.

After finishing cleaning up the miscellaneous items, Luen looked at the three items highlighted by Carter.

First of all, Rune was impressed by the winch crossbow!

——

[Rare Item]: Linghui Winch Crossbow

[Level]: Epic Lv.30

[Ability (Dragon Tendon Bowstring)]: A bowstring made of dragon-born "Tamo Dragon" sinew. It is extremely powerful and causes (1500) points of physical damage to the enemy after being launched.

[Ability (Cold Light)]: Exquisite structure, strong enough to penetrate iron armor, increase penetration (500) points

[Ability (Linghui)]: Holy blessing, when aiming with this winch crossbow, it can lock the enemy's breath within 1.5 seconds (effective for sequence 6 and below)

[Usage requirements: Physical strength above 200]

——

[Alchemy Creation]: Fine Iron Crossbow Arrows*20

[Level]: 30

[Ability (Cold Light)]: Penetration increased by (150) points——

A total of twenty capstan crossbows and their supporting crossbow arrows were harvested.

Its attributes also made Lu En's eyes shine.

One thousand five hundred points of damage, which isn't bad, but that's not the point of it.

The key point of this winch crossbow is that the crossbow and arrows combined can have a full 650 points of penetration!

[Penetration] has always been a relatively rare attribute.

Until now, Rune had only seen it on little Carter.

I didn’t expect that this winch crossbow also came with it.

Moreover, this crossbow arrow is also made of special fine iron, which is very consistent with the properties of the winch crossbow.

With a full 650 points of penetration, even if Rune was hit by an arrow, he would suffer a big loss.

The only disadvantage is that the reloading speed is slow and there are strict physical strength requirements for the user.

Luen originally planned to give this winch crossbow to little Carter, but now he has no choice but to give it up.

The second item is the mace that Vasily held before. It weighs more than three hundred kilograms and is made of cold light iron.

This thing is of little use to Rune.

But after careful observation, this thing and the fine iron used to make crossbow arrows are actually the same material.

It just so happened that Rune was a little worried about making the crossbow bolts. After that, the mace would inevitably be refined into crossbow bolts again.

The third item is a small turtle-shaped amulet, tied with a red string.

It is said to be a turtle, but in fact it is a giant beast in the deep sea, related to dragons, and is called the "dormant dragon turtle".

He is good at hiding his aura and delivering a fatal blow to the enemy.

——

[Wonderful Item]: Dragon Turtle Amulet

[Level]: Epic lv.35

[Ability (Hibernating)]: Creatures of sequence (5) and below cannot detect your information——

"nice one."

Rune's evaluation of this amulet was higher than that of the winch crossbow.

The simple and short panel brings extremely high practical value.

Just because it can prevent Sequence 5 from spying on its complete information, the value can be infinitely increased.

When fighting, in addition to competing for hard power, corresponding targeting is also very important.

Rune, as an alchemist, knows this very well.

Therefore, with the Dragon Turtle Talisman, you can prevent some people from targeting you secretly.

At the same time, in battle, the enemy cannot accurately know his status.

It can only be said that it is worthy of being dropped by Vasily, the Black Tower Knight in Sequence 7, and is of great value.

By the time Luen packed up the three items, Little Carter was already on alert around him.

"Captain, what should we do now?" Little Carter asked, "There is no trace of the remaining Hydra cult members yet."

"Wait." Lu En's reply was only one word.

Those Hydra cult members who went out were most likely going into the water to get information.

But the key to their core is in the camp and will come back sooner or later.

So if you wait here, you can get the information they obtained for free, so why not do it.

Not long after, after receiving the news from Rune, Hill and Lysa also brought the navy soldiers to the Hydra camp.

After tidying up this place, it can be used as their temporary stronghold, and at the same time, they can lay traps and wait for them.

"Lieutenant Colonel, the Hydra cultists are back."

Three hours later, a Navy soldier came to report.

Lu En nodded and said: "Be careful to hide and catch the ones alive."

Not long after, the Hydra cultists appeared in everyone's sight.

The leader is the last Sequence 8 Transcendent in the stronghold.

Everyone in this group of Hydras who went out was injured, and a few were seriously injured and unconscious. It seemed that they encountered some bad situations underwater.

As they approached the camp step by step, the navy soldiers' hearts began to rise.

"Prepare."

"1.2.3, get off the net!"

Following Hill's order, before many Hydra believers could react, several huge nets fell from the sky and landed on them.

This is a net specially prepared for sea monsters. Enemies caught in the net will be greatly restricted spiritually. At the same time, don’t look at the alchemy ball the size of a pigeon egg at the end of the net.

But in fact, these small balls are very heavy, and they will attract each other after the enemy is caught in the net.

Like a big sack, trapping enemies in a net.

The Hydra cult itself was exhausted and scarred.

Now that he was caught, he had no strength to resist.

Hill took out the spiritual shackles from the storage space and skillfully put them on several extraordinary people in the congregation.

"Tell me about your mission and purpose this time, what you have gained so far, and what you encountered under the sea."

Lu En looked at the Hydra cultists kneeling in a row in front of him and asked coldly.

"Bah! You don't want anything." A Hydra cultist just opened his mouth to curse, and his head exploded like a watermelon.

The red blood mist enveloped the people around it.

The two guys closest to him looked like they had festive decorations on their faces.

"For Lord Hydra, you don't want to know."

"Damn Belobogs!"

For a time, the crowd was furious.

Lu En didn't hold anything back. Anyone who didn't cooperate would die.

The more people were killed, the more people were killed. When they were halfway through the killing, no one finally stopped shouting.

Many headless corpses fell before them.

They saw the madman in front of them crushing the head with his hands!

A brief glance at Rune's hands gave them the illusion of a headache.

It seems that if you take one more look, your head will explode immediately!

"No one prays to that stupid god now, right? No one scolds me anymore, that's good."

Rune clapped his hands,

"The rest of you must value your own life more, so I will give you a chance. Whoever has the most valuable information and whoever speaks it out first, I will spare his life."

After speaking, Lu En winked, and Hill immediately separated these people for interrogation.

Half an hour later, Hill walked towards Lu En.

"What was the result?" Lu En asked.

"Not bad." Hill said, "The leader of Sequence 8 has also made a move. Combined with the words of his subordinates, they corroborate each other. There is no problem."

He took out the compiled documents and read: "This time they came to this place because believers from the Hydra Church discovered that there was a 'mysterious black shadow' here. After the news was passed back to the church, after repeated comparisons, they confirmed The shadow is the legendary 'Bone Fish Box'."

"The Box of Bone Fish is also recorded in our Beloberg. It was an alchemical creation originally found in Constantine's tomb."

"Constantine used alchemy as a framework to seal the soul of the undead creature 'Bone Fish' inside, turning it into a powerful fighting machine."

"Legend has it that whoever opens the box of bone fish with the key can command the bone fish to obey orders."

"This time these believers came here for the Bone Fish Box. However, although they have the relevant keys in their hands, they have little hope of finding the small box that sank a hundred years ago in the vast sea."

"The Hydra Church thinks this matter is not a high priority, so it has only sent a few of them here for the time being."

"However, according to the Sequence 8 guy, they may have a bishop coming here later."

"Bishop?" Lu En was a little more cautious.

In the church, the lowest level is the believers. These people can only be regarded as the fringe members of the church, and they may even have been deceived and abducted into the church.

Next is the congregation, and then upward are the deacons, priests, bishops, and archbishops.

After the Archbishop, there is the Patriarch and the Pope, but generally such existences are only heard but not seen.

Depending on the size of the church, the strength of each clergy is also different.

In a large church like the Hydra Church, the person who can serve as a bishop is at least a Sequence 6 being.

A Sequence 6 enemy will come here, which makes their time become tight.

Luen immediately changed his original plan of action and prepared everyone to search for everything in the sea.

While packing up the equipment, Rune asked: "What about the situation at the bottom of the sea? They suffered such heavy losses."

"There are a large number of Plague Sea Sharks in the seabed, and they are entrenched here for some reason." Hill said, "The Hydra cultists also noticed something was wrong and prepared to go down to take a look. Who would have thought that the Plague Sea Sharks are extremely offensive. They came back with heavy losses before they even explored the bottom.”

"Okay." Lu En felt a little more relaxed.

Hill hesitated and asked, "What about these Hydra cultists?"

"Kill them all," Lu En said.

At the beach, the navy was warming up.

With the information provided by the Hydra Church, their workload was greatly reduced.

Wherever the Plague Sea Sharks gather, there is something strange.

The sea at night is more terrifying than during the day.

Except it's still pitch black.

Only a little bonfire on the beach brought everyone a little warmth.

When you go into the water at night, visibility is naturally lower than during the day.

However, the weather near the Goodness Sea is mostly cloudy, so the navy here has long been accustomed to entering the sea when the visual conditions are not good.

Coupled with the specially issued equipment and the potion Rune found in the Hydra stronghold, the situation is not too bad.

Now we have to race against time to find the location of the sunken ship before the enemy bishop arrives.

According to records, as long as you find the location of one of the giant cannon or the bone fish box, the location of the other will not be too far away.

Rune and Little Carter were ready to go into the water, while Lysa and Hill stayed on the shore.

A total of fifty soldiers went into the water and then took turns searching.

Lu En opened the panel and took a look at his current mission.

[Main mission: Hydra’s gold coins]

[Side mission related to the Black Tower (Plague Shark): Obtain Plague Shark Research Body*20]

[Side mission (Ancient Demon God Alchemy Cannon): Find the whereabouts of the Ancient Demon God Alchemy Cannon, which is used to deal with Hydra]

[Side mission (Box of Bone Fish): You searched for the stronghold of the Hydra cultists and found a key of unknown origin]

In the sea area in front of him, Lu En has three tasks here.

After confirming the mission conditions and getting ready, Rune jumped off the boat.

In the water, his figure is still agile and free.

He plunged deep into the water, and in the blink of an eye he was under ten meters of water.

Shadows began to hover in the surrounding darkness.

Suddenly, Luen, relying on the characteristics of the ocean disaster, was keenly aware of subtle changes in the water flow on the left.

Without hesitation, he raised the standard harpoon and pierced it in that direction.

The standard harpoon is Beloberg's alchemical creation. It has a damage bonus to sea creatures. It is an ordinary but practical underwater weapon.

After Rune launched the attack, sure enough, a ball of dark red blood instantly surged there, and a small shark more than one meter long flopped a few times and died.

Retracting the harpoon, Rune dragged the shark carcass back, and then took a look at the light of the alchemy lighting rod.

It is the mutated plague sea shark.

It is mutated on the basis of the red shark and can reach up to four or five meters in adulthood.

After carefully examining the sea shark, Rune finally gave up on its body.

The "void fire" attached to his harpoon burned its internal organs in the blink of an eye. This corpse did not meet the standards of a "research body".

But it can be used to attract other sea sharks.

The smell of blood quickly lured other sharks over.

However, what Lu En did not expect was that among the sharks attracted, some were red sharks and some were plague sea sharks.

As soon as the two sharks met, they started fighting!

Lu En took advantage of the chaos and started poking inside.

Soon this sea area was covered with blood.

I took a look at the corpses of plague sea sharks in the storage space. There were thirty-three in total.

The wounds on each body are extremely small, and almost all the traits of the Plague Sea Shark are retained during life.

The mission of the Black Tower should be no problem.

Without any worries, Rune's speed in killing the Plague Sea Shark became faster.

Killing without restraint, the number of plague sea sharks in the sea quickly decreased, providing enough search space for the naval soldiers behind.

As time went by, the navy soldiers rotated up and down nearly ten times, but still found nothing.

Lu En remained patient and searched for clues on the seabed.

At this time, the water flow next to it changed rapidly.

Turning his head to look, a plague sea shark nearly five meters long appeared in front of him.

Lu En did not dare to neglect, and after dodging one of its attacks, he immediately took out the Linghui Winch Crossbow.

Under the premise that Undersea Destiny cannot be fired, this thing is more useful.

"cluster--!"

There was a brief sound in the water, and the refined iron crossbow passed through the plague sea shark's body.

It struggled painfully, and then wanted to escape from Rune quickly.

Just as Lu En was about to step forward and give chase, the surrounding water flow suddenly changed dramatically.

He quickly backed away.

In an instant, a huge black shadow emerged from the bottom of the sea, and then swallowed the Plague Sea Shark in one mouthful!

Seeing this, Lu En was first surprised and then happy.

Seeing the huge black shadow about to leave, he quickly chased after it.

This is the bony fish from the daytime!

Follow it and you'll reach the site of the shipwreck!
