Chapter 1093: Chapter 151: Nowadays, Bosses Are All About Sneak Attacks

Before the delicious roast goose, bundles of shadows sprang from the ground.

They resembled tendrils, yet also like iron trees with thorns— they bent down in the blink of an eye, striking towards the delicious roast goose from a blind spot.

But they simply couldn’t hit the delicious roast goose.

With the aid of Decree’s spell by Longjing Tea, the body of the delicious roast goose was like a ghost, almost losing its human shape.

His waist and shoulders exaggeratedly bent, his feet danced wildly as if performing a ritualistic dance to the gods. Squatting, running, sudden stops, jumping... If dressed in a long white robe, he might well perform a modern dance expressing a frenzy.

Under nearly complete bombardment, the delicious roast goose remained unscathed.

His body just slightly, in a very unnatural movement, twirled a few steps, dodging the increasingly numerous shadow tendrils like a windstorm.

His situation was turning increasingly dire, but the other players couldn’t support him yet—they had to prioritize dealing with the "sailors" with guns, so the wizards could start casting spells without worries and Lin Yiyi could be fully unleashed from the rear.

Fortunately, the clearing speed of Thirteen Fragrances was really fast.

For ordinary people who are not Transcendents, the silver-tier Soul Reaping wizard’s mental control is direct and doesn’t even require a willpower check, it’s assumed a direct success.

The sailors controlled by Thirteen Fragrances didn’t even have the concept of being controlled, let alone trying to resist or break free.

Whenever a controlled enemy was shot down by another enemy, Thirteen Fragrances would immediately switch and supplement a new member.

It’s like being controlled safely by either Yuri X or modified Yuri, constantly controlling members.

As a result, just by Thirteen Fragrances alone, he slaughtered almost all the enemies on the deck in a very short time.

They had no power to resist.

With these "controlled units" intercepting and covering from within the enemies, the "sailors" could no longer be distracted to attack Lin Yiyi’s side.

This was when Longjing Tea finally realized...

These "sailors" were not pirates at all, but were quite an elite regular army!

This was really the regular army of the Combined Kingdom!

It’s not because they were well-trained... Although the possibility is very, very low, no doubt, pirates could also potentially be highly trained.

Not to mention, the leaders of this force are Ingrid’s zealots—As "future gods", it’s possible for them to train even by knightly standards.

What truly exposed their identity was actually the composition of their membership.

Among these sailors disguised as pirates, there wasn’t a single Transcendent. Undoubtedly, this could be called extremely unreasonable.

In the Combined Kingdom, many pirates might never venture into the open sea. Most of them operate in the inner sea, plundering... Even as "pirates", they might not operate on ships, but could be on land overseeing the operation every day.

In such cases, becoming a Transcendent would be obviously convenient.

The Combined Kingdom wasn’t like Noah with its strict control over transcendental information.

They not only have bookstores selling transcendental knowledge but even have the highest number and varieties of wizard inheritances in the world. Any pirate with the opportunity and talent to become a Transcendent would surely do so.

—Only the navy wouldn’t choose like this.

Because even if King Dennisiowa wasn’t planning on aggressive invasions, he wouldn’t spend a lot to maintain a "navy self-defense force" that couldn’t go into the open sea. They could be Ritualists or clerics, but not Transcendents.

And on this deck, all the "armed men" without exception—none were Transcendents! Coupled with their identical rifles and trained fighting style...

This must be the navy, and a particularly elite one at that.

Thus, Venomhand from the very beginning had never "hijacked" this ship!

From the start to the present, it had been firmly under the control of Dennisiowa!

It was just that it had lost its standing in public opinion—And this blame was assigned to "Venomhand"!

That is to say...

Longjing Tea analyzed quickly.

His pupils suddenly narrowed: "Old Goose, be careful—

"—[Mutual Truce]!"

Even Venomhand himself didn’t know this fact—from the beginning, this ship was a hundred percent trap!

Whether it was the news of "Venomhand’s" hijacking, the demon’s blood on this ship, or even the ostentatious, luxurious cannons outside... All were traps!

As Longjing Tea’s Decree fell.

Those remaining few sailors, along with an extremely thin white-haired man hidden in the void, a tea-haired young girl, and a middle-aged man with lava flowing in his pupils obviously from the Roaring Fang family, were all blown out by this hurricane and pulled to the other end of the deck.

And the delicious roast goose who had charged deep into enemy ranks was also swept back by an invisible force at the first opportunity.

But just at this moment.

The "Roaring Fang’s" index finger moved slightly.

—Boom!

Following the explosion, a deep purple pillar of fire shot up into the sky!

The drifting Delicious Wind Goose was instantly engulfed, and the smoke burst open...

Ahdian immediately reacted.

At the first moment, she raised her right hand towards the Delicious Wind Goose.

A spell called "Forgiveness" descended from the sky in a twilight aura, rapidly healing the battered body of the Delicious Wind Goose.

"Damn, that’s high damage! A second later and it’d be too late to heal. That blast almost finished me off..."

After being pulled back to the player by Dragon Well Tea, the Delicious Wind Goose, still rapidly recovering, couldn’t help but complain, "I felt like I just took a hit from eight cups; I couldn’t move at all..."

"—That is the Flame of Corruption. Refined with demon’s blood, it can burn the ’light within the heart.’"

The middle-aged man, somewhat disappointed, sighed and withdrew his hand, "This was originally a gift intended for Annan Winter... As a subordinate of Duke Winter, isn’t your heart lacking too much goodwill towards others?"

It sounded like a technique that cuts through goodness.

Dragon Well Tea’s expression suddenly became complicated.

Was he supposed to feel relieved, glad that Delicious Wind Goose was not some kind of messenger of justice?

If someone else took that hit...

...No, if he himself had taken that hit, perhaps he would’ve lost less blood than Delicious Wind Goose.

—As a company director, Dragon Well Tea was very calculative.

Dragon Well Tea looked at the three once again.

The white-haired man, who seemed to dominate the scene, was undoubtedly a "Shadow Demon."

His cuffs, pant legs, and the shadows cast behind him all turned particularly deep. Even in the dead of night... the color of the shadows was even darker than the night itself.

Different from Princess Kafney’s approach.

This Shadow Demon was not using shadow tentacles as limbs to strangle or embrace enemies... which is why he specifically strengthened their toughness.

The shadow tentacles he created were exceptionally fragile.

They hadn’t even been attacked by Delicious Wind Goose—just a touch on the ground and they shattered like glass, scattering on their own.

But generally speaking, what is brittle is actually "hard."

The hard tentacles covered with spikes, scales, and sharp blades were designed to break the excess parts off after attacking an enemy.

That means... his purpose was to let those fragments enter the enemy’s body!

—Unlike Kafney, his shadow summon was poisonous!

It was either poison or a curse.

Either a DoT (damage over time) or a debuff that could inhibit one’s abilities, or both.

With just a glance at that person, Dragon Well Tea had deciphered his abilities.

But...

He looked at the girl standing in the middle, apparently with a leading role, and slightly frowned.

He was very sure, this was not Ingrid.

But who could this be...

However, it was Annan who was watching the live broadcast from afar, and his pupils suddenly contracted—he recognized the identity of this girl at once!

She looked almost identical to "Clare," the character played by Captain "Karl Mathieu" in the nightmares of Twin White Tower!

Annan suddenly remembered...

Benjamin had mentioned it then.

The real identity of "Karl Mathieu" is a pirate ship captain.

Could he be a pirate of the United Kingdom?

Then this child...

"Your Grace, I suppose you are watching."

The young girl suddenly smiled gently and said, "So, nice to meet you, Your Grace... My name is Poppy Mathieu. You certainly haven’t heard this name.

"A notable pirate, ’The Flayer,’ Karl Mathieu’s son—a follower of Princess Ingrid.

"Since you haven’t come in person, just watch as I skin these subordinates of yours. I will turn them into artworks and send them back to you as a meeting gift."

She said so.

Her pupils gradually turned into vertical slits like a snake’s, two curved horns protruded from her forehead, and two bat-like fleshy wings slowly unfurled behind her, her skin turning dark red in a blink of an eye—

Without a doubt.

She was a Corruptor in her fully evolved form!

The intense sense of oppression made the air around her tremble!
