Part 3 the traveler Chapter 101: The Backhand
The cold water instantly flooded Klein, soaking through his gold and red dress, making it heavy as a stone, dragging the body down sharply.
But at the same time, the “writhing hunger” also ate the pirate, reducing the weight of a whole man.
Klein did not try to float, but continued to sink, vaguely heard a number of plopping through the waves far away, it seems that the “sailor” way of the pirates are persevering to catch up.
This is their home turf!
They can move like fish here for a long time!
Klein did not panic, as a “magician” who does not perform without preparation, he certainly considered the exit plan if the operation fails, after all, nothing can be 100% successful.
Although in order to play the best role of Elaine, and not to be discovered by the “Disease Lieutenant General” Tracy, he not only did not bring the rest of the magical items and wallet cash, and even just made those related to the field of water and wind spells were thrown in the gray fog, but this will not hinder his play, the trinity of the gods, dependents, and followers of the status of the Trinity, so that he has a lot of wonderful! The trinity of gods, familiars, and followers gave him many marvelous maneuvers to deal with similar situations.
He quickly made the “writhing hunger” become pale and tinted with a dark green, and the surrounding sea water then froze and turned into layers of white frost.
Before the white frost completely solidified into ice crystals, Klein’s back butterfly muscles moved, and his arms violently opened to both sides, using the power of the “living corpse” to break the frost, so that they flew backwards into the sea water a little farther away.
In this way, he temporarily had a small space around him where seawater did not exist.
The water instantly recoiled to fill this void, and with a stretch of his left palm, Klein once again released a terrifying coldness and spread it over, creating a wall of seawater ice.
For a brief moment, it was as if he was in an ice prison in the sea, able to stand and make a sound, but only confined to a rather small space.
Klein immediately took four small counterclockwise steps, whispered out names such as Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun, and quickly let his spiritual body enter above the gray mist.
His figure just appeared on the high-backed chair of the “Fool”, and he directly picked up the “Neptune’s Scepter” which had been placed in front of him.
Without recognizing it, Kraven’s mind moved and sifted through the points of light that symbolized the newest Poseidon follower, Germaine Sparrow, and following the connection established in advance, he lifted his short, milky white staff and caused a greenish-blue “jewel” to blossom in a bath of sowing energy.
He responded to the “believer” by applying layer upon layer of spell-like effects to himself, including but not limited to underwater breathing, free movement, and resistance to pressure.
Finally, he used a paper angel to interfere with divination and issued orders to the underwater creatures in the surrounding waters to help and cover Germaine Sparrow’s escape.
Having done all this, Klein did not delay and immediately returned to the real world and regained control of his body.
By now, the pressure of the sea had pushed through the melting wall of ice and engulfed the “separate” space.
But Klein was able to breathe fluently and swim quickly.
Through the rippling and crystalline water, he saw a fish swimming over, saw the bottom of the foot rose a shadow, there is no knowing what kind of huge monster high-speed floating up.
It was a somewhat grotesque brownish-red octopus, so huge that it seemed to be able to embrace and entangle an entire ship with its tentacles.
It spewed out ink in the surrounding area, darkening the nearby sea, and several “sailors” who were searching for and chasing the attacker had their eyes darkened and their bodies paralyzed.
They did not know what had happened, and immediately surfaced to deal with the abnormality on their bodies.
Waiting for them to dive back down and look for the enemy again, they had completely lost the trace of Klein.
At this moment, Klein was swimming comfortably on the bottom of the sea, and even had the leisure to distract himself by recalling the actions he had just taken and reviewing the gains and losses:
”Playing as Elaine had sufficient preparation, so that Tracy, who had been in bed with her for I don’t know how many nights, didn’t recognize it the first time, and facilitated the digestion of the magic potion.
”The process also overcame mental barriers and found a mental state of both integration and withdrawal, which helped immensely in the digestion of the magic potion.
”Also basically did the best I could during the battle, belonging to a prepared performance, but still underestimated the power of a Sequence 5 ‘Pain Witch’, and underestimated the experience of the ‘Disease Lieutenant General’ who had made it to this rank step by step, even if she had at first lost her magical item at the beginning, with my current strength plus the seal, it would be difficult to kill her quickly unless I use the ‘Scepter of the Sea God’ …… but this is in the waters of the Rothschild Archipelago.
”Today’s battle can be very obvious that I still lack a powerful offensive magical item ……”
Faced with the fact that the operation had failed, Klein was undoubtedly a little disillusioned, but he wasn’t depressed because it wasn’t over yet, and he was going to write to Mr. Aztec to see if the other man was interested in ancient literature related to the Reapers, and if he had time to stop by.
Before Klein left the captain’s cabin, he had snapped his fingers to ignite the men’s clothes that he had changed out of in the cloakroom, as well as the hair and dander that belonged to himself, which on the surface appeared to be a desperate attempt to leave no trace of his presence, but in reality, it was a cover-up and a deception.
What he was trying to conceal was the hair and buttons that no one would even notice when he entered the ship’s cabin and covertly threw them into certain rooms.
When “Disease Lieutenant General” Tracy was misled as the attacker’s fear of exposure, fear of being cursed by the space, discreetly wiped out all traces of their own residue, she would be difficult for the pirates to seriously check whether there are still similar things left.
With those hair and buttons, Klein will be able to locate the Black Death within a certain period of time with the help of divination, so as long as Mr. Aztec expresses his will, he can take the other party and quickly find the “Disease Lieutenant General” Tracy.
Aigoo, originally thought that I could succeed without Mr. Aztec’s help and rely on myself alone, but after all, I still fell short by a little bit……. Klein sighed and felt that his self-esteem was a little hurt.
This was one of the reasons why he didn’t seek the big man’s help from the start, the other reason was that he couldn’t be completely sure that Tracy had the ancient documents related to the Grim Reaper in her possession, and if she really didn’t, it would be quite embarrassing to make Mr. Aztec come all the way here for nothing, and he was worried that even with Mr. Aztec’s assistance, to find the Black Death and the “Disease Lt. Gen. Moreover, he was worried that even with Mr. Aztec’s assistance, in order to find the Black Death and “Lieutenant General Disease” Tracy, he would still have to take on Elaine’s appearance, put on her clothes, and use himself as a bait to start the operation.
It would be too humiliating in front of an acquaintance!
”In fact, if it wasn’t for the purpose of obtaining information and simply getting rid of ‘Disease Lieutenant General’ Tracy, things would be a lot simpler, when I swim back to Bayam and go above the gray mist, with the help of a locked position, I’ll use the ‘Scepter of Poseidon’ to Just create a storm ……
”It’s not that a wide-range attack will necessarily kill Tracy on the spot, but it will attract the attention of ‘Sea King’ Yarn Courtman, and then the Black Death’s whereabouts will be exposed to the eyes of the Storm Church …… ‘King of the Sea’ is happy to bring up the ‘Diseased Girl’ ……”
Klein shook his head mockingly, following the guidance of the Diviner’s spiritual intuition, and swam rapidly towards the coastline.
……
Aboard the Black Death, Trixie disarmed her heavy defenses and, wearing a blood-stained, tattered shirt, walked over to the diamond-encrusted bracelet and bent down to pick it up.
”Very cautious assailant, I may not have been as good as her in my time as an assassin, no, he ……” Tracy suddenly gritted her teeth.
This was not only because she had almost died at the hands of the other, but also due to the fact that she had a feeling that the other was having an affair with Elaine.
According to Roselle the Great, she suspected that she was a little green on the head.
”Elaine, are you really that cold and desperate? No. Maybe, maybe she was forced into it.” Trixie glanced sideways at the huge, gruesome wound on her left shoulder, feeling up the excruciating pain.
If it wasn’t for the fact that both the “Assassin” and the “Instigator” had an enhanced physique, with a certain amount of follow up, this blow alone might have caused her to lose her entire shoulder, just like those pirates who were hit by rifles.
As blood flowed and stained her vision, Trixie motioned for the blonde maid to come in and use her powers to help her with her injuries, while instructing the pirates around her to look for any items left behind by the attackers.
Unfortunately, the pirates told her that the other’s clothing had burned itself.
This reminded Trixie of the snapping of her enemy’s fingers before they left, and once again she sighed darkly:
”How prudent.
”And not greedy at all, if he takes this bracelet, I won’t worry about catching up with him.”
Tracy waved her hand around, signaling most of the pirates to go out, leaving behind only “Coquette” Mithril King and a few of the fleet’s senior officers.
”Third Mate, make another trip to Bayam and investigate where the Resistance found this Elaine.” Trixie ordered in a deep voice.
Mizor withdrew his eyes from the captain’s chest with difficulty:
”Yes!”
Tracy added after a moment’s thought:
”Spread the word about this, that I’ve been seriously injured and won’t be able to recover for a long time.
”Also, First Mate, set sail immediately and don’t stay here any longer.”
Order after order was given, and silence soon returned to Tressie’s surroundings.
Until this time, she didn’t have the time to think about which power the attacker came from, why he wanted to deal with himself, and what purpose he actually had ……
However, the more Tracy thought about it, the more she felt that it was like a fog, and she couldn’t see the truth clearly at all – although she had quite a few enemies, no one possessed similar abilities.
Finally, she found a clue and whispered to herself:
”Creeping hunger?”
……
In the middle of the night, the location of the private harbor on Blue Hill Island.
A female figure suddenly stood up in the receding and surging waters, none other than Klein, who was still in Elaine’s disguise.
Surrounded by seawater, he quickly went ashore, dived into a nearby fisherman’s house, found a set of tattered clothes to change into, and changed back into Germaine Sparrow’s appearance.
Leaving the valuable dress as compensation, Krynn quickly moved away from the private harbor and returned to the “City of Generosity”, Bayam, before dawn.
He didn’t rush to meet up with Danez, but found a small hotel to stay, and utilized the ritual to bring the Aztec Copper Whistle and other magical items, as well as his wallet of cash, back to the real world.
After confirming that he could divine the location of the Black Death, he blew the whistle.
