Chapter 15 Pioneer, Fate and Lord of Silence - Part 1 (5000)(1/2)
"I didn't expect you to contact me on your own initiative. Father."
After the communication array, Albert bit the word father very heavily, and his tone was obviously not respectful.
The pirate king said calmly: "What's the matter when you look for me at this time?"
"Next, answer my question seriously. Now is not the time to have a fight."
Priest Glo could feel this rejection and disrespect, but it was not the time to spend a few hours arguing with the other party about their relationship.
The situation was urgent. Since the decision had been made, the old man was unwilling to talk nonsense. He said in a deep voice: "After getting the fragments of the Soul of Source Water, are you still around the sea of Juyue?"
If Ai Meng was here, he would have suddenly realized.
Three months ago, the temple of Xiguang City was raided by pirates. At that time, the priest Glo was leading more than half of the priests in the temple to go to the suburbs to comfort the many farmers who were underpaid due to the abnormal weather. The guardians of the temple were almost powerless to fight back and were attacked by the pirates who were well-prepared to take away a piece of the "Soul of Source Water" preserved in the temple secret library.
Although the pirates broke through the temple due to the punishment of the Lord of Judgment, they did not cause any damage to personnel. However, the pirates were too charged in both the timing of the attack and preparation. After receiving the report, the central temple felt that there must be a hidden story behind it. If there was no inner support of the temple among the pirates, the other party would never have done it so smoothly and perfectly.
Aimon was sent by the Central Holy Temple to investigate the situation. He had indeed confirmed that there were internal personnel inside the temple and were very familiar with the secret library, but the matter was deadlocked here. There were seven people in the secret library in the temple, each of which had a deep background and it was extremely difficult to investigate.
After all, Xiguang City is the largest city in the Far East of the Holy Fire Continent. It is an area directly under the central sacred temple. The temple leader Glo is a simple life and respected. Not to mention his authority that has been managed here for more than fifty years, just his peak of the Chosen, second only to the strength of the God-Blessed One, allows him to make his own decisions on all matters in the local temple. Although he is very peaceful to Aimon and shows great guilt about this matter, he has always refused to let go, believing that all the priests under his command are "extremely loyal to the Lord."
He could not find a breakthrough, so he could only kill time. However, before Aimun could find the next clue and continue to investigate, he encountered the incident of the Lord of Judgment, God, and temporarily interrupted his actions.
But now, the communication between Glou and Albert really proves that the inner responder in the Temple of Xiguang City is the host of the entire temple, and the old priest who has served in Xiguang City for more than fifty years!
Not to mention, the Euphrat Alber, one of the Kings of the Seven Seas, actually called him his father, which was beyond everyone's expectations! You should know that Glo's two sons died a few years ago, and his grandchildren are now studying in the Central Holy Church. No one knows that he has a third son, or a pirate king.
But no matter how incredible it is, it is the truth.
At this moment, Alber felt Glou's solemn attitude, and immediately, he frowned slightly and became serious.
Although he did not respect this "father" very much and had a bad attitude, Alber knew very well that the conflict between him and Glou was just some boring problems when he was young. He and the other party were grasshoppers entangled with interests and blood.
So he said in a low voice: "Indeed, my ceremony failed, and I am still on the edge of the sea...what happened?"
"Go away."
Glou did not say nonsense, he said solemnly: "The Lord of Judgment has really descended God. He has come here and has shown miracles in the city. If you are in the sea of leaping, you must have seen that scene."
"My Lord's divine punishment may not be able to enter the sea, but if my Lord knows your existence and plan, you will definitely die without a burial place... Go quickly! The faster the better!"
Although his words were rude, the care was not false.
There is nothing new in this world.
Fifty-seven years ago, Glo, who was just a revelation priest, came to Xiguang City with his teacher, the maritime economic and trade center between the former Holy Fire Continent and the New World had already declined due to the sudden increase of pirates that had suddenly appeared decades ago.
At that time, the entire sea of Jueyue, and even the near sea around Xiguang City were full of crazy pirates and water bandits. Influenced by them, even fishermen could not go out to fish in the distance, let alone the maritime trade of the entire Holy Fire Continent was completely interrupted and could not operate at all. Xiguang City, which needed a large amount of imported food, was thus trapped in a year-round famine, and many residents fled, and the entire city was completely abandoned.
Glo's teacher is a real good priest and a practical worker. While rectifying the public security of Xiguang City, he personally led the planting and developing the land outside the city and planting crops. He gradually raised the grain self-sufficiency rate of Xiguang City, stopping the population escape from Xiguang City.
But pirates, but pirates, cannot be eradicated at all.
Glo's teacher was not willing to use purely violent methods to fight pirates. Of course, he could not deal with so many pirates at sea, and the Divine Covenant made him unable to take the lead in attacking, unless the Lord of Judgment descended the oracle.
Therefore, he planned to make a contract with the pirates through peaceful means so that at least the two would not violate each other.
However, the pirates do not talk about contracts or morality. Even if they make an agreement, they never abide by it. On the surface, they agree with Teacher Glo's conditions, but they break the contract several times, which is a headache.
Until Mr. Gro's regretful death, the problem of pirates and water bandits around Xiguang City was not solved.
But Glo, who took over his teacher's duties, completely gave up any fantasies.
The only one who can defeat pirates is the pirates.
What reason should I tell the wicked? The Lord of Judgment said: "Repay happiness with happiness, and repay pain with pain." Since the wicked people disturb the people, use the wicked to eradicate the wicked people!
As a priest, the Fire People who were restricted by the Church of Destiny, Glo could not personally take action to wipe out the countless evil people in the sea. However, the Church of Destiny did not say that the priest could not train pirates by himself, so he used the resources of the temple. He secretly cultivated a group of fierce sea people to defeat violence with violence and eliminated most of the scattered bandits in the sea around Xiguang City.
Albert was the descendant of Glou and a woman from the sea people, who was the illegitimate son. Albert was regarded as the core of Glou's continued control of his pirate team, poured a lot of resources, and continued to fight with many pirates in the sea of leaping.
Unlike his teacher, Glo has his own ambitions... He wants to control the entire sea of jubilation with his own strength, and then open up a brand new trade route to the new continent.
In this way, he can not only leave his name in history, but also receive the reward from the Central Holy Church. In the future, he may also become a God-Blessed One!
But it is not so easy to accept by his father as a pawn and a fighting tool?
Like his father, Alber also had his own ambitions. So one day, Alber suddenly showed the strength of the Selected One, completely controlled the pirate group under Glo's, and then left the Sea of Juyue and disappeared.
By more than ten years later, when Alber returned again, he had already stood at the peak of the Selected One, had a powerful magical ship, and merged with the "fragments of the Soul of Source Water" and became the Sea of Trouble.
In the legend of the Soul of Source Water, a magical thing derived from the "Soul of Source Water" which originated from the sea.
Its shape is like a transparent crystal sea urchin, with crystal clear blue water element brilliance. If you swallow it, you can gain extremely powerful magical abilities.
However, in addition to the extremely unpalatable taste and taste, taking the fragments of the Soul of Source Water is also an extremely dangerous thing. It will completely transform a person's body and soul. It feels like tearing the body and soul into pieces inch by inch, then soaking it inch by inch, and finally sewing it into a new shape inch by inch.
If you cannot survive this painful process, the body and soul of the taker will completely collapse and become the nutrients of the soul of the source water.
Therefore, any pirate who has taken the Soul of Source Water is a real strong man in terms of will.
After returning, Alber, who contacted his father again, reached an agreement to help Albert collect fragments of the Soul of Source Water and various resources he needed as much as possible. Albert will also ensure the stability of Xiguang City and will also provide Globe with some overseas wonders he needs.
The relationship between the father and the son is not good, and in essence, both parties use each other.
But in the final analysis, here is the bloodline. Glou has never abused Albert and provided Albert's resources for growth, but has not given his own care and love. Therefore, the relationship between the two sides is relatively delicate. Compared with all the coastal cities in the Far East, Xiguang City is indeed the most peaceful place. Albert also followed Glou's opinion and did not kill anyone when attacking the temple.
And recently, in the mysterious plan of all the Kings of the Seven Seas, Glo, as Alber's father, naturally supported it with all his strength and provided almost all the conveniences in the temple.
So Albert didn't think Glou would deceive himself in this regard.
Jumping out of the sea, three thousand meters underwater.
In the dark and dull deep sea, a giant ship shining with the glory of dark blue magic was moving silently under the water, like a faint light in the abyss.
In the captain's control room in the center of the Deep Diver, Alber held a communication array in his hand. The tall pirate sat upright on the captain's seat with whale skin. His face was majestic, like a stone sculpture, and his long red beards that were almost the same as his father were tied into rough braids.
Listening to Glo's advanced level, the Pirate King fell into deep thought without saying a word.
"Did the Lord of Judgment who has not even had an oracle or a response to prayers for three hundred years, has he really been a God...?"
Although he had already guessed, he couldn't help but murmured: "Damn it, it's not good when it will come!"
That being said, Alber is actually a little lucky now that he did not foolishly rely on the diving ability of the Deeper to investigate the situation, but instead coerced another group of pirates to inquire about the situation.
Otherwise, if the judge discovered that his fate would probably be the fate of being struck to ashes by thunder.
"Albert, is it possible that the ceremony you are going to hold is to be defeated by the Lord of Judgment that came that day, and that the Lord came for that matter?"
At this time, in the communication array, Glou sounded with a worried voice: "If the Lord had not come, I will naturally support you. After all, if you succeed, the order in this world may change drastically. Even for the residents of Xiguang City, I will support you, let alone you are my child."
"But the Lord has come, Albert, my child, you may not obey God or respect God's covenant, but you should fear God's power... Even if you succeed, you are nothing more than becoming 'another God', not to mention that you have not succeeded."
Speaking of this, the old priest sighed, and he said worriedly: "Retreat now, leave quickly, and maybe you can save your life."
"Old and confused, how could you quit now?!"
When Albert heard this, his face was ferocious, but soon he pressed the anger in his heart and gritted his teeth and said, "I have deviated from the promise, fled from the mainland, and struggled on the sea for so many years... When the plan reached this point, I could never withdraw from the fragments of the source water soul in my body, or the ritual itself, I could only advance and not retreat!"
"not to mention."
Speaking so, Alber's tone became calm, even with a hint of fanaticism: "You have never seen a truly vast father of heaven and earth. I do not respect you, but it is true that you have wasted your whole life in the small place of Xiguang City, day after day, and the boring time of reincarnation."
"But I was fortunate to see the reincarnation transcends this world in the sea, the scenery that transcends this world and the 'area of other worlds'! It is the splendor that transcends this world, and it is a grandeur that this small world cannot understand..."
At this time, the pirate king's expression even showed a trace of real awe. He seemed to recall the scenery he saw at that time, saw the power and future displayed by those weird people, and then firmly decided.
"Lord of Fire, Lord of Wind, Lord of Judgment? The Lords are indeed God, they have established order in this world, and I respect them not just strength."
"But in the final analysis, they are just the 'indigenous gods' in our small world! There are countless outside this world, far better than their powerful existence!"
Albert asserted: "If our plan is successful, neither the Lord of Fire, the Lord of Wind, nor the Lord of Judgment, we will be far superior to them!"
"In the name of 'pioneers', this world is nothing more than our first step toward the horizon at the far end and beyond!"
At the other end of the communication array, Glou was speechless.
He is indeed old and cannot understand what his children are pursuing... He is indeed not a priest who follows the precepts 100%, but which priest who has communicated with pirates in the Far East will not be stained with a gray field? What he does not conform to the code, but can bring true peace to the people.
But even so, he could not understand why Albert's fanaticism was at this time, and what was the real plan of the King of the Seven Seas... It was indeed blasphemy for his child to become a "god", but who could stop it?
After all, since that "rebellion" a hundred years ago, the faith of the Church in the Lords has long been as solid as it used to be...
"Anyway, go quickly."
He could only repeat the helpless words like this. Glou can only warn now: "Go away from the sea of jubilation quickly, whether it is to continue your plan or listen to mine and stop mixing it in it, leave quickly..."
"child?"
"Albert?!"
On the other end of the communication array, the Deep Diver number is in.
The communication array base plate was placed on the table.
Albert, who was originally holding him, had appeared on the deck of the Deep Diver.
"What's going on?"
The red-haired and red-bearded pirate king was asking his crew at this time, and he looked unhappy: "Didn't I say, don't bother me when I'm talking to someone?"
"Captain, the situation is wrong!"
However, what responded to him was the sailor's fearful response and the hand pointing to the depths of the dark deep sea: "Sea beasts! A lot of deep sea beasts are coming towards us!"
To be continued...
