Reincarnation Paradise

Chapter 21: Hidden Tasks

Crows covering the sky and the sun hovered over Shipwreck Island. Shipwreck Island was the Duke’s territory. Yes, it was Baron Bourne who actually managed it.

Baron Bourne and the Duke are not in a subordinate relationship, but more like a cooperative relationship. Baron Bourne is responsible for the management of Shipwreck Island, and he has a group of guards with hundreds of people.

Baron Berne accounts for 55% of the profits from Shipwreck Island, and the Duke divides it into 45%. All matters here are taken care of by Baron Berne. The Duke just sends some pirates and incorporates Shipwreck Island into his own territory. , Does not participate in management, but can take away more than 40% of the benefits.

This seems to be exploitation, but in fact it is the recognition of the great pirate Duke. According to the Duke’s past behavior, the Baron Bourne has long been annihilated, the Shipwreck Island is taken as his own, and his cronies can manage the island. All proceeds from Shipwreck Island belong to the Duke Pirate Group.

The Duke is not unable to do this, but because the price paid is higher than the benefit.

The black cursed crow hovered in the sky, the sky was overcast, the temperature on the Shipwreck Island began to drop, and an invisible energy was mixed in the air.

There was chaos on the pier. The pirates who came here to sell the stolen goods or to supply supplies knew that something was going to happen. There were too many crows hovering above, and the ominous feeling permeating the air made these pirates think of something. Rumor has it that the Doom is not far away where a large number of crows gather.

The pirates all know the existence of the Doom. Few people know that it is too specific. Most of the people who have seen the Doom are dead.

"Captain, there are too many crows, at least tens of thousands."

"Let the brothers aboard, Yang Fan set sail."

"Load fresh water first. The goods are no longer needed. Kill this batch of goods."

The wharf is even more chaotic, even if the connection between the Doom and the Crow is only a rumor, it is enough to make the pirates vigilant.

boom!

A dull and ear-splitting gunshot silenced the chaotic port for a moment. Everyone looked at a man with a flintlock in his hand and a moustache on his chin. It was Baron Berne.

"Everyone, is anyone willing to stay and assist my'Bourne Family' against the Royal Navy, and reward each person with 20 gold coins afterwards."

Baron Bourne spoke loudly, and the pirates looked at each other, a little confused for a while.

"Puff~"

A pirate couldn't help but laughed, and the next moment, the black hole pointed his gun at him.

boom!

A gunshot that shook people’s eardrums was heard, and the sneered pirate stood there. His entire head and half of his upper body disappeared, exploded into large pieces of meat, and the gap in his chest was faintly semicircular. Something seems to be wriggling on the exposed flesh and blood.

With a thud, the pirate with only two-thirds of his body fell down, and the dock became quiet, and the needles became audible.

"Baron Bourne, if you can explain what is going on with the crow above, we are willing to help you meet the enemy."

A pirate captain with an ugly face spoke up. This was a disaster, and they couldn't leave.

"It's a witch, the Royal Navy coerced a witch to summon these crows."

Baron Bourne left these words, and under the escort of several guards, he rushed to the old castle near the back of the town. His steps were a bit hurried. His goal had been achieved, and the shelter he had gained through sacrifice was about to dissipate. If you continue to stay, you may be spotted by the black cursed crow above.

The meaning of Baron Bourne is obvious. The pirates on the dock have two choices. They can assist the Bourne family against the'Royal Navy', or go to sea immediately and stay away from the shipwreck island, otherwise they will be the enemy of the Bourne family and the enemy of the Duke.

This trick is extremely fierce, leaving behind is cannon fodder. As for leaving, no one can leave after the arrival of the sky full of crows. No one can guarantee that among the pirates on the pier, whether there are people from the Bourne family or the Duke’s pirate group. .

In places like Shipwreck Island, there are no civilians at all, either pirates, or people related to pirates, such as slave traders and merchants buying stolen goods.

"Right full rudder, set sail."

A pirate in a black turban stood at the bow and shouted that the captain of the ship was slaughtered by Baron Bourne, and the pirates on the ship were not prepared for revenge.

With its sails tilted, a pirate ship went out to sea first. After this pirate ship sailed half a nautical mile away, the pirates who were watching on their ships breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to set sail.

Suddenly, a stern scream came from a pirate ship half a mile away. The black fog was permeated around the ship, making it difficult to see what was happening on the deck. Only the screams could be heard.

In less than a minute, the pirate ship calmed down, and the surrounding black fog dissipated. The pirates near the pier found that the ship had stopped moving on the sea, and the main sail was cut a dozen times on the deck. It's terribly quiet.

Click, click...

The pirate ship made loud noises, and the hull began to shatter everywhere, as if being dragged into the sea by an invisible big hand, there was not even a piece of wood left on the sea, and it disappeared into the sight of the pirates.

Witnessing all this, the pirates near the pier felt horrified. The first idea was to escape to the shipwreck island for refuge.

With the sound of breaking wind, a black energy ball with a diameter of one meter blasted onto a pirate ship in front of the dock.

boom!

A deep-colored flame emerged, engulfing most of the blasted hull in it. The pirates who survived the flame wailed and rushed into the sea.

Large swaths of burning wooden planks splattered like celestial flowers. The pirates soon discovered that even if these burning wooden planks fell into the sea, the flames showed no signs of going out.

At the same time, a large four-mast ship approached from a distance, the dark red mainsail seemed to be soaked in blood, and the dark hull released black mist, covering the surrounding waters.

"Doom."

An old pirate turned around and rushed to the pier, abandoned the ship and fled, preparing to take refuge in Baron Bourne.

Ga, Ga, Ga.

The crows swooped down and drowned the old pirate. After swiping a sailor's knife around the group of crows, the old pirate died tragically after barely hacking several black cursed crows.

There was the Doom in front, and there was a group of crows in the back. The pirates could only retreat to the dock, and those frightened eyes occasionally flashed with the viciousness of being forced to despair.

"We were taken advantage of by Baron Bourne. The Doom came to him. He wants us to die here and give him time to escape."

"It's up to now, what's the use of saying this."

A one-eyed pirate spoke in a cold voice. Now whoever provokes him, the knife in his hand will immediately greet the opponent's throat.

"We can take refuge in Doom first, and then to Baron Bourne, and take the opportunity to capture Baron Bourne. The target of the Doom must be him. His ancestor signed a blood contract with Doom."

"Who is it, who is talking? Stand up!"

The pirates spread out a bit from each other, trying to find out who had just spoken.

"It's your father."

Just now the voice spoke again.

"Come out to Lao Tzu!"

The one-eyed pirate with a wild father was extremely angry. His stern one-eyed eyes swept across the face of a famous pirate, ready to find the person who had just spoken.

"I take refuge in the Doom, don't kill me, I will go and capture Baron Berne now."

A pirate shouted. After waiting for a while, he tried to walk to the small town behind the pier until he disappeared from everyone's sight and was not attacked by the black cursed crow.

"I also take refuge."

"Count me in."

The pirates expressed their opinions one after another. Seeing that, they almost kissed the earth to show their sincerity.

Hundreds of pirates marched towards the castle on the island. They first passed the gate, entered the courtyard of the castle, and finally stopped in front of the castle.

The door of the castle was open, and the inside was pitch black. Because the sky was dim, the castle at this time was like a giant beast. The dark doorway was like a giant beast's bloodbath. As long as someone entered it, it would be swallowed.

The pirates couldn't help being shocked, but the crows hovering above, as if urging them, let them enter the castle as soon as possible.

In desperation, the pirates entered the castle one after another. In fact, they were not prepared to capture Baron Bourne alive, but preferred to take refuge here.

Quietness in the dark castle was restored, as if no one had ever entered. A blood-stained hand suddenly protruded out of the darkness and grabbed it by the doorway. This hand was covered with fine gnawing marks, and some places were exposed. skeleton.

Due to the excessive force of this hand and its owner being dragged in the darkness, the nails on this hand gradually turned up, and after leaving a few blood marks on the wall, they were dragged into the darkness, and never appeared from beginning to end. Screams and calls for help.

In the black fog hundreds of meters in front of the castle, Su Xiao was watching this scene. He deliberately put those pirates into the castle. Just now, he triggered a hidden mission with the reward of [Overflowing Soul Box]. After opening this thing, you can get 100 soul crystals (complete).
