Pirates: The Black Earl

A few days later, the fishermen went out to sea to fish as usual, but they only recovered countless schools of dead and rotten fish. It seemed that the marine life in the entire sea area was extinct.

Such a strange situation made them terrified and quickly reported the matter to the nearby naval base.

But the navy couldn't find out what happened, they could only define it as a natural disaster, and then ignored it.

It's just that a group of fish and shrimp died, and it's not a dead person, what a big deal.

And the culprit who caused the fishermen to lose everything was lying on the beach chair at the moment, drinking his favorite juice happily.

For the official breakthrough, Rao was also excited for a long time with Lovett's disposition. As a member of the mage, he knows too well the weight of the representative of the "official mage".

After all, to put it bluntly, the three identities of magic apprentice, mage apprentice, and elementary mage are basically not on the table. They are only created to appease the disciples and prevent them from losing confidence in the future.

The circle of mages only recognizes formal mages whose souls have sublimated beyond the limit of the race, which is a sign that they have officially opened the gap with "human beings". From then on, "mage" is a separate racial name.

The root cause of this gap in influence lies in the outrageous difference in strength between official mages and elementary mages.

Not to brag, after breaking through to become a formal mage, Lovett dared to say that he can beat the previous twenty himself!

This is still his Black Earl, if it were an ordinary elementary mage, he would be helpless even if hundreds of people joined forces.

The crushing of the quality of the light soul makes it difficult for the magic methods of elementary mages to work on formal mages.

Combined with the amount of knowledge and calculation speed necessary to become an official mage, the elementary mage is no match for the real calculations.

And then……

"Gulu!"

Ajin swallowed his saliva, resisting the bone-piercing chill that flooded his body, and approached Lovett with difficulty: "My lord, here are the information you want."

"Oh, let it go."

Holding the wine glass in his left hand, Lovett raised his head slightly and said with a smile: "You have to work hard, Captain, otherwise you will have difficulty standing in front of me, how can you be my strongest shield?"

Hearing this, Ah Jin smiled wryly: "Yes!"

This is the biggest hole card after becoming an official mage, apart from the terrifying energy and magic means brought about by the sublimation of the soul!

You can use the power of rule runes!

It is not a spell rune as a carrier of spells, but a rule rune simplified from a rune.

In the early years, the mage world was a world enslaved by gods, and those gods held the talismans and acted as spokespersons for one party's rules.

Such as Sun Goddess, Moon Lady, Mother Earth, Lord of Vows and Lies, etc.

After the Battle of Slaughtering Gods led by the first Saint Ten, the runes were no longer controlled by the gods, and the mages were also fortunate enough to observe the runes, thus a simplified version of the rule runes was born.

However, since it is not the original source of power like a rune, it must be combined into a rune language to be effective.

Death rune + blood rune + soul rune, the rune language formed by these three ruled runes can give birth to a kind of magic power, that is, the famous return to the soul of the underworld, which continuously draws the breath of the necromancer world to nourish the necromancer, helping Its perception practice.

At the same time, the breath of the spirit world brought by the return of the soul from the underworld is also a lethal weapon. Let alone an ordinary person who is close to Lovett, if a weak old man smells it, his soul will be drawn out of his body.

Under the influence of Returning Soul from Netherland, the 100-meter circle around Lovett was enveloped by the aura of the Necromancer World. If he intends to hurt someone, these auras will instantly turn the surroundings into a deadly Jedi!

The combination of offense and defense, and it can also help in cultivation, is the perfect choice for a necromancer.

The foundation of all necromancers comes from the death rune, blood rune and soul rune, and the effect of the combination of the three weakened version of the rule runes perfectly fits with the necromancer.

Have to say...it was a match made in heaven.

Flipping through the materials brought by Ajin, Lovett thought silently.

"A formal mage can master three to six rule runes depending on the strength of the soul. No matter how many more, he must reach the level of a titled archmage, and find a unique way."

"With the foundation of my previous life, I can master up to four runes now, but the last rune wants to exert its effect without destroying the language of the original rune, so it's hard to choose."

"So my top priority now is not to condense the fourth rune, but to...avoid another risk!"

Taking a closer look, the words "Baroque Works" appeared at the top of the information.

Lovett picked up the glass with his left hand and took a sip.

"If you want to blame, blame you for being the closest to me...Alabasta, I happen to have a permanent pointer."

After the strength has greatly increased, some plans can finally be put on the agenda.

Meanwhile, Alabasta, rainy land.

Crocodile's heart was inexplicably cold, and he woke up from the nap state.

The fragrant wind wafted from the tip of his nose, he did not change his posture, and asked, "How is the matter going?"

"Dancing fans have been successfully sent to major cities, and there will still be no rain in those places for at least a year."

The black hip skirt outlines a graceful figure. Nicole Robin stopped in front of the table, pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and said with a smile: "Also, according to what the pirates said recently, Earl Black is in the gourmet city. After making a fuss, it disappeared again without a trace.”

Coincidentally, not only Doflamingo wanted to forcibly take Lovett away to let him make weapons for himself, but Crocodile also had this idea.

Baroque Works was formed long before Crocodile entered Alabasta. From the perspective of God, it would be considered a soy sauce organization. However, to people in this world, this criminal organization is extremely mysterious and dangerous.

Relying on the members of the organization that have infiltrated all over the world, Crocodile successfully connected the Blood Curse Blade with Lovett.

"That guy is a bit cunning, and he also understands how much trouble he will cause if his manufacturing of the Blood Curse Blade is exposed."

Crocodile lit the cigar and put it in his mouth, suddenly raised the corners of his mouth in disdain: "But knowing this and refusing to accept the protection of the Four Heavenly Kings, it seems very self-respecting."

A rookie pirate who is not afraid of anything!

There are countless newcomers like this every year, but how many of them can really grow into big shots?

"Send an order to continue searching. We want to get ahead of the navy and get his power."

"yes!"

...

A new storm was coming, and now, where Lovett had passed, a bicycle rattled down the street and into the port.

"Oh! Lots of fish, great harvest sir!"

"Oh, it would be nice if that was the case."

The fisherman with a pipe in his mouth sighed: "But these are all dead fish, and they can't be sold even if they want to sell them."

"Oh why?"

"Who knows, all the fish in the entire sea suddenly died, and there are really strange things happening in the sea."

"So that's it, that's really unlucky."

The man rode a bicycle and waved his hand: "But the sea area where I came from is quite clean, you can try your luck."

"Oh, really? Then I'll have to hurry, before anyone notices."

After finishing speaking, he did not forget to thank: "Thank you, brother, I will treat you to fish some other day."

"You're welcome, bye!"

Subconsciously waving goodbye, the fisherman suddenly woke up.

Wait, no!

Where did you come from?

Are you not a cyclist?

Looking at the man who pulled out the ice track and rode on the sea, the fisherman murmured to himself with horror in his eyes.

"Dahai, there are so many strange things happening!"

...

A few days later, Alabasta, Rapeseed Town.

"This is Alabasta? What a magnificent yellow sand!"

Standing on the deck, Lovett ignored the screaming crowd below and looked at the sandy sea in the distance with a surprised expression.

The power of nature is truly amazing.

It is hard to imagine that in the center of this vast and endless ocean, there will be such a huge desert.

As a desert kingdom, Alabasta has a detached position in the Great Route, not only because it is the territory of the Naferutali family, one of the twenty royal families who established the world government, but also because this country is not as barren as it looks.

The standing army is as high as 600,000. Is this something that a poor country can do?

With the help of the vast land area, the production of various desert specialties is abundant. The common threat of the royal family and the navy gave birth to a prosperous trading system here, and the products are exported to the world.

"Desert Pearl" Alabasta, this is what the world calls it!

However, there is another desert pearl in the hearts of Alabasta citizens, that is Naferutali Cobra, the daughter of the twelfth king of Alabasta, and the beautiful Princess Vivi.

"My lord, I have found the map, but this guy said he is willing to lead us the way."

Ajin jumped onto the deck with a man on his shoulders, and said respectfully to Lovett.

"Lead the way for us?"

Lovett withdrew his emotions and looked back: "Give me a reason."
