Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 485 Breakthrough to the Fourth Level: From Now on, I am the Storm (6500)!
“You asked me who was the one who got rich in the success story I taught?

Is there any need to ask? Of course it’s me!
If those students hadn't paid their tuition fees and themselves, and then donated an additional half of their monthly salary to me, how could I have succeeded?

Why are there so many properties, estates, women, slaves, and so many cannon fodders available?

Let me tell you a joke. If you get three thousand assassins at the beginning, how should you use them?

Of course, they were all sent to the plantations to pick cotton and eat watermelons, and they worked to support me from then on."

“Have you ever seen anyone who, after finding a way to success, doesn’t keep it to himself and make a fortune, but instead sincerely teaches it to others?
What a joke.

Most of those who say they will ask you to pay a large sum of tuition and then teach you how to make money are scammers.

For example, some time ago, a group of "economists" who came from nowhere formed a "stock investment recommendation group" on the online financial street and charged people how to make money in the stock market.

As smart as I am, I can tell at a glance that they are not good people!

These guys can't fool a liar like me, and I will never fall for it. At most, I can share my experience of fraud with you some other day."

[Dung Eater] Although the One-eyed Owl thought so in his heart, he did not say it out loud.

If he takes the initiative to eliminate ignorance, the original effect of "herding humans" will disappear instantly.

This would be tantamount to negating his years of brainwashing of those "fanatics", and everyone in the pirate group would rebel on the spot.

Besides, since he was able to rise to the position of a fourth-rank warlord among the pirates who believed in "the last one standing is the winner", he certainly didn't think that this puppet that suddenly appeared on the battlefield was really some innocent child.

I don’t believe that there will be any good results if I answer the other party’s questions honestly.

"Where did you come from, little devil? Get away from me!"

While shouting, he subconsciously took a step back and took a defensive posture with great vigilance.

At the same time, the spiritual vision was turned on as soon as possible.

Under the spiritual vision, the puppet who called himself "Pinocchio" suddenly changed his appearance.

The extremely strong ominous aura on his body has turned into a black and red cloud.

The originally wooden body of the puppet was covered in blood. In addition to the main wood, there were also bones, flesh, internal organs, hair, and other creepy "raw materials".

It looked like it was made up of countless bloody parts from the human bodies of countless people.

There are countless wailing ghost faces hidden in every crack on its body. No one knows how many people this thing has killed.

The sticky smell of blood on his body almost suffocated this old sea dog who was also a murderer.

At the same time, dozens of silk threads that looked like pork tapeworms or tentacles grew from the joints of the puppet, extending upward into the void and being grasped in the palm of an invisible hand.

The little boy is just the appearance, the puppet is the essence.

"hiss--!"

When the one-eyed owl saw the other party's true face, he immediately gasped.

Compared to this weird and strange thing, that [Giant Sea Monster Oarfish] is so kind and cute.

"Go to hell! The Mad God has descended!"

As he roared.

[The Church of Misery] Inside the stern of the ship that was built to look like a church, the life-size bronze statue of a one-eyed dragon gleaming with golden light suddenly opened its single eye (Chapter 472).

The eye is actually made of normal flesh, which makes people suspect that the one-eyed owl did not lose its eye due to injury, but dug it out and installed it here by itself.

That is exactly the case.

His title ability [Great Impurity] can transfer all kinds of pollution he has eaten, and artificially create all kinds of corrupted or cursed things.

Among them, his proudest work is this bronze statue.

It is also the place where his one eye, the thoughts and wishes of all his "fanatics" and most of the polluted "God of Self" are placed!
It takes three steps for others to awaken the God of Self: “Flow”, “God-Vision”, and “God of Self”.

However, [Dungeater] bypassed the prerequisite of "divine vision" through the ability of the title and found another way.

This is his most powerful beast, and also the final trump card that he has kept in his hand and never played.

A blood-red halo exploded above the bronze statue's head.

The left half of the body and the intact left eye were still a majestic human figure shining with golden light, but the right half of the body and the blind right eye seemed to have been burned by high temperature, and were dark and bumpy like a demon.

boom! ! !
He squatted slightly, and then his whole body broke through the poop like a cannonball, and then fell down with a loud bang, hitting the puppet Pinocchio hard.

He swung his punch straight down, and the rain curtain exploded into water mist under the air explosion ring created by the fist tip, which was more explosive than a heavy coastal defense artillery shooting at the face.

In the "Mad God Descending" state, the body is dominated by the strongest wild instinct standing at the top of the food chain. There is no need to weigh the pros and cons, subconscious attack is the best.

Even a farmer who knows nothing about fighting techniques can instantly transform into a fighting master once he masters this ability.

Compared to the shame of the fourth-level beast tamer [Blue Hair] Barbarossa Helding, the one-eyed owl who fought his way up was obviously much stronger.

however.

Pinocchio faced the shocking blow of the [Dung Eater], but he just shook his fingers, grinned, revealing a mouthful of white sharp teeth, and laughed strangely:
"Wrong answer. Please accept the punishment!

one two three"

Click!

[The Coprophagist] suddenly heard a strange noise coming from his body. He was about to withdraw, but was shocked to find that his body seemed extremely heavy, as if it had rusted.

Wood texture appeared on the surface of the skin, and his face suddenly changed:
"not good."

He immediately realized that he might have triggered some high-priority killing rule.

If he were allowed to finish what he was going to say next, something very bad would definitely happen.

In fact, from the moment the other party asked the question, he had already passively triggered the killing rule of [Cursed Object: Pinocchio]:
“This is a strange thing between a living thing and a dead thing.

The puppet's physical body is the basis of its existence, and inside it there is a cursed spirit that retains a simple self-awareness.

Its instinct is to kill!
It can reveal the most private things in a person's heart that he or she is most reluctant to mention.

The person being asked must answer his question. If he does not answer or lies, he will surely suffer misfortune.

When Pinocchio says the complete sentence: "One, two, three, wooden man", the person being asked will really turn into a puppet.

The soul is trapped inside and becomes a lesser grotesque controlled by Pinocchio.

Prerequisite: Pinocchio's feet must stand still and he must also act like a wooden man for this to work."

At the same time, the bronze statue's heavy fist had already landed on the motionless Pinocchio.

Its body was instantly torn into pieces and blown everywhere by the shock wave.

A hint of joy just appeared on the face of the [Coprophagist].

However, it was seen that the invisible threads in the void had dragged the fragments, and put it together into a complete puppet with the two wooden feet standing firmly in place as the center.

Then Pinocchio continued to recite the second half of the sentence:
"Blockhead!"

[The Dungeater] suddenly froze in place, and its flesh and blood body quickly transformed into a wooden structure.

Dozens of silk threads naturally grew out of the joints and fell into Pinocchio's hands.

The latter smiled strangely, hooked the silk thread in his hand, and ordered:

"Go kill the Green Lady and that indigenous totem god."

The main targets of this operation are the two of them, and the Puppet King will obviously not lose sight of the main goal.

However, the newly made dung-eater puppet did not move, and Pinocchio turned his head to check in confusion.

However, the puppet transformed from the dung-eater's body became dim, as if only an empty shell remained.

On the contrary, the bronze statue, which had originally returned to its dead state, suddenly had its single eye light up again, and a spiritual glow burst out from its body.

Without saying a word, he turned around and rushed into the sea. After one wave, he disappeared into the mouth of a big fish underwater.

In a flash, it flew away and disappeared without a trace.

[Great Impurity] makes the soul of the One-Eyed Owl naturally resistant to all kinds of pollution. Even after the body was transformed into a puppet, the soul was not imprisoned.

With the help of his trainer's telepathy, he successfully abandoned his physical body and escaped on the spot with the help of the bronze statue.

He even decisively abandoned the pirate group he had worked so hard to build, as well as the large amount of treasure that was about to be obtained.

Although this pirate commander was extremely greedy, he was also extremely decisive.

The only bad thing was that he did not inform his two teammates, Candy Witch and Captain Goat, to be on guard against danger.

Because the one-eyed owl has realized who the master behind the puppet Pinocchio is.

He had absolutely no desire to fight a fifth-tier legend head-on. It would be better for him to let his two teammates draw fire so that he could escape.

Not firing "flares" at friendly forces was already the most humane thing to do.

"This loach runs really fast."

[Pinocchio] cursed inwardly and chose not to chase after this insignificant little character.

Although the dung eater was not completely captured this time, the giant oarfish finally broke free from the blockade of its own "fanatics" and successfully entered the core battle circle.

Boo hoo hoo.
It transformed into an unmatched streak of silver cold light on the sea surface, taking advantage of the increasingly turbulent waves to cut through all the pirate ships in the melee along the way as easily as a hot knife cutting butter.

Any pirates who fell into the water were simply swept away by the waves and completely disappeared on the sea.

Taboos for sailing in the First Gyre: "Never drop fresh human blood into the sea, as it may become delicious bait that brings about unknown disasters."

The large number of casualties on the battlefield has attracted countless evil things here.

Woo woo woo.
The crests of the waves were surging with green phosphorescent fire, and a low whimper sounded from the deepest part of the sea and echoed repeatedly on the surface of the sea. In a trance, the layers of waves around me were no longer waves, but countless pale human hands.
Coupled with this kind of stormy weather, falling into the water would almost certainly mean immediate death, and even a medium-level person would most likely be in grave danger.

At the same time, in the rear guard battlefield, the candy witch Ivanka in [Gummy Fat Bear Form] grabbed the red bull that [Matador] had condensed the power of the entire ship into.

He used all his strength to inhale and tighten his stomach, and then his fat belly suddenly popped open, sending the Red Bull flying onto his own [Candy House] next to him.

"Belly impact!"

It flew up again and turned into a puddle of chewed pink bubble gum, sticking it firmly to the deck.

The [Goat Captain] Alex next to him seized the opportunity and commanded his goat-headed hero guards to act as the spearhead and attack the flank of [Matador] Roderick.

He killed the soldiers whose spiritual energy was almost drained away, and threw his best skill, Sheep Transformation, at the Bullfighter Roderick.

Although the bullfighter relied on the powerful resistance of the fourth-level monster knight, he did not really turn into a sheep.

However, he had already consumed a lot of energy after being besieged by three people of the same level. His limbs inevitably turned into sheep's hooves, and the swift sword in his hand fell to the ground.

[Captain Goat] also transformed into a goat-headed man and rushed to Roderick like the wind.

In a flash, the shotgun in his hand fired close, and the sharp edge of Fisher's sword followed by a large number of hot bullets fell on Roderick's body.

This move originated from the action of West Coast horse archers "quickly switching to saber to attack after shooting arrows". It is a unique skill of warriors from various countries on the West Coast, known as the secret technique: [One Arrow, One Sword].

It has evolved into the secret skill now: [One Gun and One Sword], which is even more powerful than the original version.

Fleet Deputy Commander Roderick was first shot all over the body and staggered back, then was beheaded by Captain Goat with a sword.

A group of pirates cheered loudly as they bathed in the blood spurting from each other's necks:

"Oh, we won."

"These thirty treasure ships belong to us."

Next to her, the [Candy Witch] Ivanka also breathed a sigh of relief when she noticed that the Red Bull had disappeared.

However, she had just regained her human form and stood up from the deck.

Click!

With a crisp sound, she, the small half of the ship where she was standing, and several crew members were swallowed up in one gulp by a narrow mouth full of sharp teeth, like eating biscuits.

Although the Oarfish that came to support arrived a step late, it took advantage of the moment when the pirates let down their guard and launched a sneak attack, causing the pirate commander to lose another man.

On the opposite ship, Captain Goat Alex stared at the sea monster with a pair of cold eyes, and a drop of cold sweat slowly slid down his forehead.

As we all know, the strength of a sea monster is directly proportional to its body length, and also corresponds one to one with the length of a battleship's deck.

A sea monster that is sixty meters long is comparable to a first-class battleship.

If there were no Castilian soldiers acting as human shields, it would have been impossible to capture the fleet's deputy commander [Matador] so easily.

They originally wanted to kill the matador first and then the other two would join forces to besiege the sea monster.

But for some reason, before Captain Goat could react, his two companions died silently. How could he continue to fight?
At this moment, the oarfish suddenly gave up its target and turned to rush towards its owner, [Giant Beast Killer] Wycliffe.

Apparently summoned.

The situation on that side is more urgent than revenge for the deputy commander.

“I was lucky to be saved.

I want to stop while I am ahead. I will take these thirty treasure ships and find a place to hide. It should be enough for me to slowly grow into a hegemon."

[Captain Goat] just breathed a sigh of relief.

But suddenly I noticed that there was a long-nosed puppet that looked like a little boy on the opposite deck. He tilted his head and asked me innocently:
"Mr. Alex, among your sheepfold, which one do you like best, the spotted sheep or the black sheep?"

Not only Pinocchio who attacked again, but also his two third-level goat-headed sons who were obviously larger than their others, also looked at Alex.

Because they are the sons of Hua Yangyang and Hei Yangyang respectively.

In their ears, the meaning of this sentence naturally became:
"Mr. Alex, who will you choose as your successor? When you die, to whom will you pass on the pirate group and the wealth you have accumulated throughout your life?"

How could he not immediately widen his two pairs of strange rectangular eyes?

Alex's choice was the same as the one-eyed owl's. He ordered the attack without hesitation:
"Want to alienate our father-son relationship? Kill him!"

[Pinocchio] It’s a pity that I didn’t get to see the famous scene of “the whole hall full of filial piety”.

He was then chopped into three pieces by two knives, and everything above the waist was thrown out, but his feet remained in place.

He continued to laugh loudly:

"One, two, three, wooden man."

This time nothing unexpected happened. Captain Goat immediately stiffened and turned into a puppet with a look of horror on his face.

Then, under Pinocchio's manipulation, he commanded his pirate fleet to support the vanguard without hesitation.

Prepare to capture the first target [Gulf Stream Mother] and firmly grasp the throne of Castile in your hands.

Louis, the puppet king who was remotely controlling Pinocchio through silk threads, couldn't help but applaud the scene where the supporting characters left one after another:
"Hahaha, all thirty treasure ships are mine.

The vanguard and the main force will soon all belong to me.

A plot design in a puppet show must consist of a goal, obstacles, climax, and a shocking ending, and the four acts of the plot must be repeated in a cycle.

Now I have cleared the obstacles step by step according to the script, allowing the supporting characters to exit in an orderly manner, and am about to push the battlefield to the climax of the entire play."

"Groan——!"

At this moment, a loud dragon roar that tore through the sky made him suddenly turn his head and look in the direction where the [Golden Deer] and [Niucheng] were fighting.

There, an extremely beautiful and graceful behemoth was spreading its wings in the storm, and its shining mithril scales illuminated the entire sea.

The mighty dragon's power made everyone on the battlefield hold their breath, and they recalled the fear of being dominated by these rulers of the sky in the mythological era.

Jinyuan Sequence Motto: "Money speaks, truth is silent!"

As long as there is enough money in the gold yuan sequence, any mandatory requirements for the promotion ceremony are nothing but clouds.

At this time, except for the rear guards who had almost died together, the remaining two battlefields were like the boss lady who was in charge of the military power was actually the same person, and the boss lady who was in charge of the financial power was also the same person.

Catherine's wealth grew at twice the theoretical rate.

She is now wealthy enough that she no longer needs her money to enter economic circulation, nor does she need to sleep in a dragon's lair filled with gold, silver and treasures.

Driven by the enormous amount of wealth, he completed the double promotion of two extraordinary routes in just a few breaths!

“I have already experienced the professional ability of the fourth-level [Mithril Knight] when Catherine served as regent and obtained the Golden Law level bonus.

——Heroic unit: Silver Wing Knights.

The additional legion abilities are [Demon-Breaking Holy Silver] and [Do Not Disturb Sleeping Dragons].

However, he could only control five dragon knights originally, but now the number has increased to ten.

Moreover, now you can get a 20% discount by using the "Sleeping Dragon Do Not Disturb Unless You Pay More" app. If you top up in advance, you can get 800 yuan free for every 10,000 yuan you spend. This is really cause for celebration."

“The fourth-tier mythical creature [Mithril Dragon] completely transformed Catherine’s race from human to a pure-blooded dragon, and her lifespan increased to one thousand years.

But since my life span has already been shared with Byron, this thousand years does not mean much.

Or is a series of innate witchcraft more valuable:
'【Dragon's Majesty】, 【Breath and Breath Weapon】, 【Psychic Lightning】, 【Charm Monster】, 【Dominate Dragonborn】, 【Transform All Things】, 【Dragon's Covenant】.'

Especially worth mentioning is the [Treasure Force Field]:
The place where she lives for a long time will be infected by the life force field, giving birth to metal veins such as silver and mithril, as well as other special herbs. Every mithril dragon is a wealthy dragon. "

Even the title "Mithril Dragon" that has been circulating around the world for a long time has become worthy of its name today and successfully broke through the 25-point mark.

A new ability [Invisible Hand] has been added based on the original [Mithril Dragon Soul]:
“The ‘invisible hand’ originally refers to the market mechanism, that is, the market spontaneously regulates economic activities under the interaction of supply and demand, price and competition, so that resources are effectively allocated.

But in Catherine's hands, it became a powerful weapon in economics.

There is a strange phenomenon in the financial field: "What most people think is the fact will become the fact even if it is not the fact!"

For example: Even if a country is economically healthy, as long as the majority of its citizens believe that its economy will be bad in the future, they will increase savings, reduce consumption, and so on.

Then, the country’s economy will really get worse!

For example, even if a bank is very sound in its investments and has sufficient deposit reserves, it will still be bankrupt if depositors believe that it will go bankrupt and start withdrawing their savings.

Therefore, economic forecasts have become forecasts of people’s hearts, not forecasts of a certain individual, but forecasts of the entire group.

Humans currently have no means to effectively predict such subjective and idealistic things.

Therefore, economics naturally cannot make any effective predictions before eliminating this interference.

This is also why the so-called economists are always so inaccurate and are almost becoming synonymous with charlatans.

However, the "Invisible Hand" allows Catherine to enter the collective subconscious of any country or ethnic group and promote changes in their hearts.

In other words, if she says a stock will go up, it will definitely go up.

The hand that Catherine obtained was obviously not used for bloody fights between individuals, but it continued the [Supreme Art] in her hand that could kill an entire country!
With one swing of the sword, the economy of a small country could be wiped out."

Byron was the first to see the changes in his sister through the [Ship Log].

As Catherine's half-teacher, he was naturally very pleased:

"The stock recommendation group we set up in Financial Street to snipe our competitors turned out to be more than just a pig-killing scheme one day. It was a pleasant surprise.

As long as my sister has huge assets in the future, she will write books as a Jinyuan sequence extraordinary person and put forward the most important economic theories of the contemporary era: "invisible hand" and "visible hand".

The [Immortal Stairway], which will always exist as long as there are humans and economic activities, can be obtained immediately.

Send her to the fifth level [Queen of Finance] and [Goddess of Wealth] throne. "

Catherine naturally didn't know that Byron had already planned a smooth path for her future.

He opened his mouth wide and fired a "breath weapon" at the [Navigator] Katarina who was fighting fiercely with the [Mountain Demon Bear] Sivatel.

Bang!
A jet of blazing white high-temperature metal blasted the navigator, who was covered in torrent armor, away and fell far into the pitch-black first circulation belt.

"Katrina!"

[Giant Beast Killer] Wycliffe was furious, but he was powerless to turn the situation around.

Before the oarfish could come back, the battle became three against one.

The outcome of this looting operation led by Byron was already decided.

The promotion ceremony to the fourth-level [Storm Lord] was thus declared complete.

Woo woo woo.
The storm above suddenly calmed down, and then began to intensify.

The storm above their heads was reflected in the eyes of the Sea Hunter and Wild Hunter at the same time. Two beams of light shot straight into the sky from their bodies, each forming a huge funnel-shaped whirlwind.

The two figures became somewhat blurred, as if they were about to melt in the storm at any moment.

The wind level continued to increase, but everyone in the sea area clearly heard two voices saying in unison:
"From now on, I am the storm!"
