Part 4 The Undead Chapter 51 The Skill of Communication
At the time of hearing the illusory cascade of prayers, Klein was attending a dinner party at Portland-Mormont’s home due to the time difference.
Such a banquet started at 7:30 and could continue until 9:30, or even 10:00, because the appetizers, soups, side dishes, main dishes, entrees, vegetables, fruits, desserts and so on added up to a total of ten or twenty dishes, which were served one by one by the manservants in the order of the order, and were uniformly withdrawn and replaced, and in no way did the table become cluttered, and the intervals between each of these dishes were left for the guests to chat, and for the gentleman to take the initiative in communicating with the female on his right hand side.
All in all it was rather cumbersome and very tiring, even to pay attention to which dish to drink which glass of wine …… but it tasted quite good …… Klein took the opportunity of the tender lamb being removed and replaced from the grill to say to Mrs. Willis on his right:
”Excuse me, I’m going to the restroom.”
He then stood up, pressed his right hand between his chest and stomach, and bent over slightly to acknowledge the other guests before leaving the table and heading to one of the washrooms on the second floor.
Entering inside and unlocking the door to his housing, Klein instantly took four steps against the grain to get above the gray mist.
”…… Prayers of Mr. ‘The Inverted Man’, who wants me to help him gain the goodwill of the Oblivion Sea Monster, and is willing to collect fifteen pages of Roselle’s diary to do so, or do something of equal value for me …… His progress is not slow …… “Klein sat in the seat of the Fool, spreading out his spirituality and touching the expanding and contracting The crimson star was expanding and contracting.
He considered for a few seconds and said:
”Investigate all the Forsak colonels involved in the Battle of Conotto in 1338.”
As an expert in history, after learning from the spirit of the “Inquisitor” that he had died in the sea in 1338 at the hands of the Forsak, Klein had figured out on the spot which naval battle he was talking about.
In the year 1338, the relationship between Rune and Fossack was tense and there were frictions from time to time, but there was only one battle in which there was a death of a colonel officer, and that was the naval battle that broke out in the East Barrancenuto.
And there certainly weren’t too many colonels in a Forsak fleet!
……
In the dark waters of the sea, Alger Wilson saw the endless gray mist and heard the response of Mr. “Fool”.
Investigate all the colonels of the Forsak Empire who participated in the Battle of Conotto in 1338. …… What is Mr. Fool doing focusing on such a small man? There is a huge secret involved? Alger’s heart was moved, and without any further hesitation, he directly agreed:
”Your will is my will.”
Such a mission was difficult and complicated for him, but it wasn’t considered dangerous, it was the type that he could withstand right now.
After responding, Alger once again heard Mr. Fool’s low voice:
”You may return to the vicinity of the target.”
That’s it? It’s worthy of Mr. “Fool”! After receiving the authority, Mr. K was more like a sea god than Kavituva, and his power was no longer limited to the Rothschild Islands! Algernon was delighted and thanked him, then with a fold of his back and a spread of his feet, he turned down and dived again.
In a few minutes, he returned to the underwater volcano, and saw that the water around the huge black cave was chaotic, and the tentacles had not yet calmed down.
Although Alger was convinced that Mr. Fool was powerful enough and terrifying enough to be a revived ancient god, he instinctively cautious at the sight and approached it cautiously.
He initially suspected that the countless tentacles waved by Obnis was welcoming himself.
At this time, above the gray fog, holding the “Scepter of Poseidon” Klein slightly frowned.
”Refuse to communicate with the god of the sea, even loathe this feeling, not willing to get close to ……” he whispered with a bit of toothache.
He had just failed with the influence of the Prayer on the surrounding sea!
For some unknown reason, the Auburnis sea monster had a strong resistance to the extraordinary ability of sea creatures to get close.
Through the thick tentacles twitching fiercely in the prayer screen, Klein vaguely sensed the target’s anger, which wanted to tear apart any living being that dared to approach it.
”Mr. ‘Inverted Hangman’ passed, passed ……” Klein’s mouth twitched and decided to take a different approach.
He raised the “Neptune’s Scepter” a little higher, causing the greenish-blue gems on it to light up one after another, emitting a bright and dazzling light!
Immediately afterward, he sent out the tyrannical aura of “Lightning Storm” and applied it to the Obnis Sea Monster.
The thick tentacles that had stirred up the seabed suddenly solidified, and then fell down, clinging to the ground, and countless green spots of light appeared in the dark cave.
In the gurgling sound that made people’s teeth sour, the horrible monster that could swallow a sailboat crawled out, its patterned black body was huge and twisted, and it had three heads, and each head had more than a dozen eyes on top of it, each of which could emit a green light by itself!
The monster then prostrated itself, behaving like a domesticated hound.
”Sure enough, communication requires skill.” Klein nodded his head in satisfaction, and once again used this extraordinary ability of marine life proximity, relying on the mental aspect of communication to make the three heads of the Auburnis sea monster open their mouths at the same time.
This created three deep “caves” in front of Alger’s eyes, each of which could be passed by a sailboat.
In praise of Mr. “Fool”…… Alger looked up at the “magnificent” picture in front of him and couldn’t help but mutter to himself in his heart.
Without wasting any time, he picked the head in the center and quickly swam in.
Alger’s vision quickly appeared a winding tunnel, the walls are made of flesh and blood, the spaciousness is comparable to the front deck of the “Blue Avenger”.
Grunting, the water rushed inward, down the tunnel and into the depths, and Alger seized the opportunity to plunge in.
In a flash, it was as if he had returned to the time when he first became a “sailor”, and was thrown into a dizziness that was difficult to maintain in the battle with the waves.
By the time Alger used his extraordinary ability to finally stabilize his body, he had already left the tunnel of flesh and blood, and was in a dark, lightless, empty world, with a sticky feeling under his feet, and a strong fishy smell coming from all around him.
After only a second, Alger realized that the liquid here was corrupting him, and busied himself with making a film of water around him, causing it to expand and grow larger into a transparent orb.
Knowing that he had already entered Auburnis’s stomach, he did not hesitate to take out the bottles and jars he had brought along and prepared long ago, and began to concoct magic potions.
One by one, the auxiliary materials were thrown into the wide-mouthed metal bottle, stirring themselves into a dark blue liquid, and then a transparent “jellyfish” wrapped in azure seawater-like water was carefully put in by Alger.
The long-distance drifting song steeply intense, and then calm down, the liquid inside the wide-mouthed metal bottle no longer a ripple and a bubble, deep as if the ocean before the storm.
Alger calmed down, did a meditation, and then picked up the metal bottle, gulped down the “Ocean Singer” magic potion inside.
The cold, paralyzing liquid slipped through his esophagus, entered his stomach pouch, and instantly spread to every cell of his body in an unbelievable way.
At this moment, Alger vaguely heard countless voices, which came from all the living beings in the entire sea, but were blocked by the body of the Obnis Sea Monster, leaving only a relatively vague number of them.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
Alger could only feel his heart beating violently, spewing blood, spirituality and sound waves outwards, transforming his vocal cords and soul body.
He could hardly contain himself as he opened his mouth and let out a huge sigh.
At the sound of the sigh, Algernon felt his spirit body being torn apart, and as the sound waves spread outward, they first transformed into mottled scales on his skin, and then pulled out long strips of flesh, allowing these to transform into waving tentacles.
The soundwave continued outward with the spirit fragments, coming into contact with the slime inside the belly of the Oblivion Sea Monster, and strangely bouncing back to re-inject itself into Alger’s body.
Alger’s near-uncontrollable state was instantly improved, and he was busy seizing the opportunity to sing without fear of embarrassment, wanting to vent all the invisible sound waves inside his body that could burst himself.
Rough, chaotic, out of tune, full of heavy metal texture of the song circle out, mixed with many spiritual fragments, and then all were bounced back by the viscous liquid in the belly of the Obnis sea monster.
In this process, Alger was like a material inside a sonic furnace, being polished and molded little by little.
Finally, he regained full control of his body, initially restrained the surging outwardly dispersing spirituality.
Finally …… Alger closed his eyes and an uncontrollable smile appeared on his face.
He accomplished the initial goal of so many years, promoted to the “ocean singer”!
He has gained a shallow control over lightning, a better and more comprehensive and longer-lasting talent for underwater activities, and the ability to influence the target with his singing voice. …… This ability can be used in several ways, depending on each person’s own qualities. One way is to disturb the enemy’s spiritual body with his beautiful singing voice, causing him to appear in a trance and lose his concentration, or to improve his own explosive power. Explosive power, one is to simulate thunder and cause people to be shocked, and one is to rely on, rely on messy and unpleasant songs to make the enemy annoyed and lose his mind …… Alger examined his own state with a slightly odd expression.
He quickly got rid of his thoughts in this regard, took his items, swam against the current to the mouth of the Obnis sea monster, and tapped the other party’s long closed mouth.
That mouth slowly opened and suddenly roared, spewing out everything in its mouth.
In an instant it was as if Alger had come to mid-air and nearly collided with a shark.
After a few moments of confusion, he surfaced and swam to where the Phantom Avenger was.
It was only when the ghost ship came into view that he breathed a sigh of relief.
–One of the problems that Alger was worried about before was that the “Blue Avenger” suddenly appeared abnormal when he went for promotion.
Although an hour or two was not a big problem, the world was always full of accidents.
……
Thanks to Mr. Hanging Man, Klein returned to the real world, washed his hands, dried them, left the washroom, and walked to the dining room.
He inhaled slowly as the scent of the food entered his nose again, smiled, and returned to his seat, paying his respects as he sat down.
By now, the party had moved on to dessert.
Looks like it was a bit long in the washroom …… Hopefully there won’t be a Dawn Dontaeus constipation buzz after today …… Klein muttered a couple of words to himself silently and smiled to Mrs. Willis on his right:
”When I was young, I ate a lot of strange foods in the southern continent, and one of them was called Tenet Tree Plum, which tasted a lot like light cream, as those on desserts nowadays.”
He politely explained the reason for returning so late, which was that his youth had weakened his bowels.
