Chapter 399 - 335: Hurricane and Chattering Ariel
Chapter 399: Chapter 335: Hurricane and Chattering Ariel
On the [Hurricane],
about half a day had passed since they realized Lis was missing.
Although Lis had appeared injured last night, Charles and the others were not particularly worried.
This was the very person who had just slain the great pirate [Blood Shark] Patrick, after all. The ones who should be worried in this place ought to be others.
Charles and Basel were leaning against the ship’s rail, watching Helen, who was excitedly darting about the [Hurricane] like a little rabbit.
...
Touching here, looking there!
As Helen grew and progressed, her personality became increasingly cheerful.
And it was indeed curious where the All Beast Church had found this Magic Ship for Patrick.
Besides the unusual pale aqua exterior that differed from common ships, special carved patterns were scattered throughout the ship, with arcs of blue magic light occasionally flashing across.
The interior of the ship was also exquisitely arranged, and in addition to the luxuriously appointed captain’s quarters and several high-end cabins, there were crew quarters, washrooms, dining areas, and storerooms that were all far more upscale than those on the [Eagle].
The whole ship did not look like a famed pirate ship but more like a luxury sightseeing vessel used by Great Nobles on expeditions.
The only uncomfortable thing was that aside from those high-end cabins, the rest of the areas were left filthy by the pirates who had been on the [Hurricane], an unbearable sight.
After discussing with Evar, Charles sent some of the captured pirates to clean up, while the crew of the [Eagle] happily took on the role of supervisors, unlikely to encounter any problems.
While Charles and Basel were gleefully slacking off and Evar was meticulously inspecting the facilities of the [Hurricane], Lis suddenly appeared on deck.
Charles, who noticed first, hurried over, ready to flatter the big shot, when Lis cast a glance his way.
In that moment, Charles froze, feeling an extremely terrifying aura engulf his whole body.
Although the sensation quickly disappeared, Charles’s back was still drenched in a layer of cold sweat.
What… what’s happening?
Did he get stronger?
And his aura is so much stronger than before!
Charles knew this kind of change well; it was the transformation of crossing a rank, and Lis’s serene and satisfied face also confirmed this.
It couldn’t be that he advanced to a Legendary Strongman!
So, he had been promoted from Silver to Gold Level?
Charles shuddered inwardly, taking a deep cold breath to himself.
Could it be that he really was still Silver Level when he killed [Blood Shark] Patrick?
The rest, Charles couldn’t bring himself to ponder, nor did he want to.
Lis’s performance was about to overturn his entire worldview.
He just wanted to find a place to be alone and quiet…
Lis glanced at Charles and saw him standing there, his eyes filled with shock, realizing that he had discovered the truth about the breakthrough to Gold Level.
After all, having just broken through, his control over his own aura was still a bit unskilled.
However, having advanced to Gold Level, there was no need for Lis to be as cautious as before.
For instance, having multiple Professional Skills,
or holding a Marquis title in the Feis Kingdom…
Now a Gold Level Arcanist, with his tremendously increased Attributes, he might not be the opponent of high-ranking Gold Levels, but defending himself was not an issue.
As for Legendary Strongmen, those big figures were too preoccupied to pay attention to Lis.
And the plans Lis had made for the future were all cautious. Both Dillon Kingdom and Boditch Kingdom were the kind that had no Legendary figures stationed.
Even in times of war, no Legend had been seen taking the field.
While it was an unspoken rule among Legends not to engage in wanton killing of civilians, there were still cases where a Legend saw their country on the verge of extinction and decided to intervene, striking at the enemy’s military and its Nobles and officials.
Simultaneously, it was because most of the ruling areas on the Fanor Continent were Human Kingdoms, unlike other continents where more Legends sponsored by Kingdoms could be found, and other Legends rarely made their presence known to outsiders.
On other continents, like the Eson Continent, many regions were directly controlled by Extraordinary Organizations and the Church of the Gods, with Legendary Strongmen as organizational leaders, often making public appearances.
Lis gave Patrick’s corpse, which was still lying on the deck and had seemingly been left untouched by Charles and the others in the place he had dropped it, a cursory glance.
Lis had already collected all the treasures on Patrick’s body, but there was nothing too valuable.
Besides a few Gold Level Equipment pieces that Lis had no use for and some Gold Coins in the storage ring, there was nothing else.
It seemed all the wealth Patrick had plundered must have been offered up to the All Beast Church.
Patrick’s trip to the port of Giant Horn Island was probably for this reason!
“Hang him at the ship’s bow!”
Lis said to Charles, pointing at Patrick’s corpse.
“Oh… oh, yes, will do.”
Hearing Lis’s voice brought Charles back to his senses.
Charles called for help, and together they used ropes to tie the corpse to the ship’s bow.
Meanwhile, Lis, who wasn’t concerned about this now, took an excited Helen and began to tour the [Hurricane].
This Magic Ship, besides its elaborate and luxurious decorations, what Lis saw was the perfectly hidden Magic Pattern Circuit within the patterns.
