Message in a Bottle
After some time only traces of three Assassins and a Thief from the Hermes guild were found. It was a complete massacre.
"Another contact has been lost. The last report that we got from them was disturbing. The search party reported that there is a very strong warrior with Weed"
"Suspend the search party! We need to send reinforcements first, escort the Assassins and Thieves."
Drinpelt reached the destination with the reinforcements from the Hermes Guild. The Holy Knights and Wizards were all battle ready.
The pirates, navy units, assassins and thieves were mobilized to give out support.
The Tracker traced the footsteps near the helium mining region but the track was spread out because of previous fights.
"This way, the footsteps are still fresh."
"Tiel and Dirge create a blockade."
"Make it strong and impenetrable."
Tiel a Navy Knight of the Kingdom of Haven belonged to the top 30 most powerful Knights.
He could conquer any dungeon and come out unscathed.
The initial thieves of the expedition were all wiped out.
Thieves have high agility but very low stamina, a great drawback of the job.
Counting from the escort group a total of 21 people have already died. This massacre was caused by only one person.
Seo Yoon stood by the dead bodies of the 3 assassins and the thief.
Roa: Be careful! There is an incredibly strong woman here!
Travis: Kill immediately! Forget about asking the location of Weed.
AlWynn: The main unit will support you until the very end.
The Hermes Guild members in Jigolaths had non stop chats in their guild chat.
The members of the Hermes guild left in the Kingdom of Haven kept reading with excitement.
Go chem: It's a fox hunt.
Strauss: More like a wild vixen.
Je Igeo: I've regretted coming to Jigolaths.
Her armor was full of small to large scratches.
Her health and vitality was also diminishing.
The trackers can come out anywhere at anytime.
Due to sleep depravity, she is reaching her limits.
Berserkers fight until they burn their last light of stamina.
The way each job gains experience and skills are different.
When you're only feeding from a party and don't put in the effort you get less of the experience that the party receives.
In this manner it can become a relaxing monster hunt and you still gain the experience.
Whereas if you place yourself in a dangerous room filled with monsters and enemies and fight till the death.
You will not only get the experience but the associated battle stats and skills will rise dramatically.
In such a state of constantly overcoming your limits and facing stronger opponents, putting your life on the line with each fight. This will undoubtedly make you stronger.
Berserker-Yun is in a fairly risky state now.
"No longer seems to be resisting."
One of the few enemies I've encountered so far that could easily win by brute force alone was Seo Yoon.
Mean while the assassins and thieves dragged their affairs were mobbed.
Inflicted with all sorts of poisons the body's resistance collapsed.
"This time!"
"Kill!"
As Seo Yoon shrugged them off, she realized that there was no place to escape.
Looking at the enemies they're starting hesitate as the fight drags on.
'The fight.'
Attacking while dodging the enemies that consisted of 31 people coming from the Hermes Navy support.
Knocking out these enemies took Seo Yoon's stamina to the very bottom.
After taking all these attacks and injuries it would surely have killed her, if she had another job.
The Berserker's fallout would cause her entire body to get sick and injured, a grave side effect.
At the end of the battle Seo Yoon was taking a breather.
The day before the enemies appeared Weed whispered Seo Yoon.
Weed: "I'm coming out of the mines now."
Seo Yoon was glad to know that Weed was almost with her.
After battling with the enemies for 10 hours Weed sent a whisper again.
Weed: "There was a delay, I'm having trouble with the loot. I'll arrive in an hour."
Another 5 hours have passed.
Weed: "Almost there."
It's been more than 2 hours.
Weed: "Now just around the corner"
Seo Yoon realizing that Weed would be in danger if he were to arrive now, decided to lead the enemies to another place.
GoldenBird and SilverBird were waiting inside the Helium mines.
For their safety Seo Yoon decided to leave.
Grasping her sword she stared at the entrance of the mines, longing for Weed.
Seo Yoon thought to herself. I can't stay here any longer, the tracking team is drawing near.
Her glossy black hair was waving in the air as she turned around and started to walk away.
Scratching sounds could be heard from inside the Helium mines as the wheels of the cart came nearer to the entrance.
GoldenBird and SilverBird were rushing towards the sounds that came from seven wagons tied up in a row that Weed and Yellowy were dragging.
You're late Weed.
Without her knowing, Seo Yoon was smiling brightly.
Weed's heart was inexplicably filled with joy once he saw Seo Yoon.
But was torn apart once he noticed the red letters on top of Seo Yoon's forehead.
Seo Yoon was branded with being a murderer.
Just how many enemies did she have to face for her armor to become like rags.
"It ends here!"
Thanks to Seo Yoon's interception of the thief and assassins, the Hermes guild was still unable to pinpoint their exact location.
We could still escape if we go quickly to the opposite direction.
But Seo Yoon was still fighting Knights and Warriors from the Hermes guild.
Berserker Yoon's status rendered her unable to fight. Even for someone like her there are limits, and she has reached her a long time ago.
Her visor was hanging and she was having trouble breathing.
Drinpelt along with Hermes Guild's military elite composed of Clerics, Magicians, Knights have arrived at the entrance of the Helium mine.
Not one member of the tracking expedition survived. Be it a thief, assassin or navy knight.
Drinpelt: "Thief investigate the footprints"
Thief: "The trail leads into the Helium mines. Looking at the fight that occured here, You can clearly see how savvy Weed fought our tracking team."
Now that Drinpelt has gathered his reinforced army. He is prepared to face anything that Weed may throw at him.
Weed trapped inside the Helium Mines seems too easy. Weed could be preparing a trap.
"I'm not trying to sound scared, but are you sure that Weed is still in there?"
"I don't know, they may have gotten out before we were able to trap them."
The connected wagons created a clear and easy trail for the trackers.
Seo Yoon then superimposed misleading tracks from very strong creatures that would give the trackers a second thought before continuing their trail.
She hasn't mastered the geography of the place so creating a perfectly discreet circular trail was next to impossible.
"Poison has entered her body and it's in a dangerous quantity."
The tracking team composed of a thief and a group of assassins were exploring the many chambers of the Jigolath caves.
Currently Drinpelt and his men were at a disadvantage because they were chasing Weed in the complex maze of the Jigolath caves. Drinpelt laughing said, finally the map is complete there is no place where the can hide now.
You can narrow down the search range. It is important to send the troops in an encroaching approach so they can't escape.
"If you look at the trackers even they can get lost in entering the chambers they almost look identical and you need to have a closer look at the chambers to recognize them. In case you didn't know, This mine will be different in the from anywhere in the middle until it's exit."
Helium and other treasures that could have been left by sculptors could be waiting for them inside. This was what was on the mind of the Hermes guild members.
"Go ahead and enter. Have you noticed some of the leaves are out of place."
Drinpelt with more than half of his troops entered the Helium mines.
As Weed expected, nothing's for free. A tough temptation of joining a prestigious guild such as the Hermes Guild was living off at another´s expense. This was also one of Hermes Guild's favorite past time.
It took a while for them to get to the end of the railroad mines. The ride was so rough that it could cause them to get hernia.
"Where is this going to take us?"
The four players who were aboard the wagon got off carefully.
As they got off Weed prepared a meal that was seasoned with sesame oil. As Weed finished the meal everyone ate until their stomachs were full.
|
Weed and Seo Yoon went further into the Helium mines as a burning figure tried to crawl after them.
GoldenBird and SilverBird were carrying Yellowy, and were quickly covering a great distance from the entrance.
"Now where?"
Due to the after effects of the Berserker class, Seo Yoon's every stat and skill were being reduced.
It was very difficult to even walk.
It was very confusing to decide where to begin treating Seo Yoon. She had wounds all over her body, she's poisoned, and her stats were reducing every second.
"You must run. Escape the Jigolaths you got what wanted right?"
Well, Duh?! Weed thought to himself.
I'd be glad to do that. If only that big oaf Yellowy's legs could carry all the carts. I wouldn't hesitate.
Yellowy thought that since coming to Jigolaths he had only suffered five tribulations and is now finally going to die.
Dreaming about being in the Versailles continent, enjoying the early dawn dew that moisturizes the grass. Grazing happily, enjoying it's sweet wet taste.
Breeding more little Yellowys. Relaxing together with his other living sculptures like Bingryong, Phoenix, the Wyverns.
"But now I'm here in Jigolaths where it's totally packed with enemies ... ... In addition, we're going to kill people."
From the scene that took place. Weed looked like the protagonist from a romance movie. Where the protagonist saves the ladies in distress. trapped and isolated.
Where the wicked people to risk their lives to pursue them further.
It was an extreme situation. You can feel the tension in the air. This was the situation where Weed would shine.
The monsters and battles that I've experienced here in Jigolaths had never been easy.
Leading legions of the undead when the fleet of the Kingdom of Haven arrived.
Finding the Helium mines through that labyrinth maze.
As long as there were bad guys who were kind enough to teach me the wickedness of humans, I'll continue to face them.
Weed: "Come on Hermes! Send some more scouting party. I'll be right here waiting."
Seo Yoon: "Be careful."
Seo Yoon left with Yellowy.
The Helium mines were less complex compared to the maze before, soon they will find me.
But the loot from hunting in the Jigolaths, as well as the mithril angel should take top priority. It's a good thing I left those items with Seo Yoon. This should keep my uneasy mind at rest. Thinking like this should come as no surprise!
Weed muttered softly but nobody was there to hear him.
I was going to look for a place where to put my loot away. In order to dispose of them later once I got back on the continent, Versailles.
Heavy footsteps can be heard. There is no doubt that the Hermes Guild is coming.
The idea here was a bit far out, clearly it would be insane to do this.
"But I have to do this as soon as possible."
Taking out a small sculpture of a raven. As the Hermes Guild came into view. BOOM! A sinister mass of rolling stones came tumbling down.
"Skill: Art of Sculptural Transformation!"
Weed's body was becoming smaller and smaller as he turns into a Raven.
Weed called out to the other birds. GoldenBird and SilverBird! get your assess on top of Yellowy.
-You follow me.
-Roger, owner
-We will be really noticeable, since we are made of gold and silver.
Using common sense. GoldenBird and SilverBird covered their bodies in charcoal powder. Making them as black as the Raven.
And then one by one the backpack hanging from Yellow's back started falling. Yellowy tried to grab them with his mouth. BITE!
-Let it go.
Weed and Seo Yoon on top of the backpacking Yellow grabbed by two birds fly through the passage to the dungeon entrance.
Kya Woo!
The Monsters found them but because they were flying out of reach the monsters couldn't do anything. They gave everyone the slip and escaped.
A group of 3 Ravens with carriages came out of the Jigolaths Cave.
It was a long time since Weed saw the sweet blue clear sky.
Against a backdrop of boiling lava and volcanoes, and those far the white snowy field.
The view of the Jigolaths's skyline and landscape was a sight to behold.
This time his chests feel lighter. It was a sign for one´s fortune changes for the better.
The heaviness brought by using the hoe in all the mining in the Helium Mines was all gone.
Weed use Lion's Roar with all his might!
"CAh CAh CAh CAh CAh Caah CAah CAAH!
|
Hearing such a loathing sound, GoldenBird and SilverBird flew out of sight.
Still Weed felt proud. Shameless of the audacious sound that he had just made.
Weed's black pupils quickly surveyed all of Jigolaths that could be seen.
"Well, that's quite a turn out."
Kingdom of Haven's fleet of sailors together with Griffith and his Pirates where on the look out for Weed.
When the Hermes Guild sends reinforcements, they send an entire naval fleet of sailors.
Weed has greatly troubled Drinpelt. Due to the substantial damage of his combat crew. Finding replacements is gonna be difficult.
There are dozens of ships docked around the Unfreezing River. Warships and Pirate ships came in sight.
Art of Sculptural Transformation is really useful. Weed was racking up his brain trying to figure out how to escape this difficult situation. He refuses to give up.
I could get help using Yurin's Picture Teleportation.
Of course even among the enemies they had Magicians who could use space distortions spells, and landing in the wrong place could easily put them in harm's way.
In any case, the risk is too great and I can't endanger Yurin.
Furthermore, Picture Teleportation requires specific details for it to work and all I did in Jigolaths was hunting and mining for precious minerals.
I can't let the few precious people in my life get caught and be taken hostage in Jigolaths.
Somehow I had to obtain a ship and get the hell out.
-Follow me.
Weed flew to the sky and passed above the warships.
He flew along the Unfreezing River.
It was hard flying. slightly higher above the temperature difference was intense and also there was a strong wind.
The raven took a break once he reached down to the reef, and again repeated the same flight over!
Northeast of the Unfreezing River there was a beach leading to the entrance of the sea.
"Art of Sculptural Transformation Cancel!"
After returning to human form Weed opened his backpack.
He pulled out several glass bottles.
The bottles were filled with wine, distilled whiskey, medicinal herbs, snakes, several kinds of liquors. Weed was always prepared.
Grudgingly Weed empties the bottles.
"I have to empty these bottles so I can send out my messages."
If you look at the movies often when a person is stuck in a deserted island they would send out their dying notes inside glass bottles. In hope that it would reach someone.
All of my bottles have been sent out to sea.
Weed was also following this behavior.
~Immortal Warrior, Weed |
He was flexing the palm of his hands while thinking of how the note could make a striking impression.
"And you may never know..."
Weed started pulling out the dwindling trees on the beach after wards proceeded to chop them into pieces.
Repairing the Ghost Ship's broken mast and hull would require a lot of wood.
|
Weed used the pieces of wood from the Ghost Ship and started sculpting out a skulls.
"All of these pieces could have been sold as souvenirs."
There are hundreds of bottles containing the skull and note and I drifted them all out to sea.
Tiny pieces of sculptures made from the Ghost Ship headed out to sea, sloshing through waves in the distant.
"And now to test my newly acquired sculptural skill..."
Weed dipped both of his hands in sea water.
|
|
|
Weed's hand with lit up the waters started to sparkle.
"Water is nature's Mana without compromising the good pieces."
Water can be sculpted without need for cutting off pieces but rather by molding them together.
|
Slipping between his fingers the waters started to float into the air.
Being not quite prepared the floating water was in disheveled form.
Weed might be able to do so much for the neck, too Yellowy water up and then pulls out a knife, a piece of v-trim shape.
"You'll need to create decent work."
You can't expect to create a masterpiece on the first try. That's just absurd.
Weed stared at his sculpture on the far off distance. It was the Ghost Ship with The Undead Pirate Deoreol reaching out with one hand.
Ttitring!
|
|
Water can be sculpted without need for cutting off pieces but rather by molding them together.
An ordinary piece. It could be described as fairly modest work.
|
Weed's created sculpture started to evaporate and slowly started to disappear.
|
High clouds formed over the sky. It was as if the clouds were eating each other creating a gigantic figure.
It was a cloud sculpture in the sky. A perfect reproduction of the Ghost Ship and the Undead Pirate Deoreol!
For the first time Weed created a colossal cloud sculpture, made by putting nimbus clouds together.
Depending on the winds the colossal cloud sculpture started to flow into the sea.
* * *
Planer sees the gigantic cloud sculpture flying over. A flying Ghost Ship... No it's the Flying Dutchman! That's a clear sign of approaching disaster.
"Goodness... Was this thing from the sea? From which direction?"
The ghost sailors dressed in rags pulls out a bottle that showed markings from their captain.
Opening the bottle, they wondered what their renowned pirate captain wanted. Even if they were angry for how he treated them while they were still under his commands. They still respected his power and decided to read what the note indicated.
"Right... amidst... called... second. Sail... to unfold... have... all... inside... sailing."
Suddenly the rope binding the sails of the Flying Dutchman was released.
The sails needed to be tighten the smashing wind was stretching it out. The sails had holes and correctly tightening them was hard.
Even so, The Flying Dutchman was breezing right through, advancing towards the northeast coast.
Weed received a message in the bottle. It wasn't only going to be the Ghost Ship and The Flying Dutchman.
A group of smaller ghost ships turned up. Deoreol read the note and changed course towards them.
"Fairly good turn out... Let us see..."
"We ...A bu. ..Roll. Riches ...Dea ...Wealth can. ...People ...A Messenger. "
"Chaos ...Of the ...Warrior ...Champion... Hatch ...Lucky ... best ...fortune ...Destroyed the ...former. ..Gratitude of fire well this ...Everything."
Weed had transformed again and turns into a lich with advanced Undead Summoning skills.
Skills can give unpredictable effects through most of the glass bottles messages were delivered to Ship Ghost.
From the time of hunting and defeating the Chaos Warriors you have gained the respect of the Undead in addition your Ghost Ship has become famous as well. Your heroic deeds are known throughout the Versailles continent.
Weed who had absolutely no interest in others was being talked by everyone. The heroic tales of the Undead Pirate Deoreol on the high seas.
Had this been the effect of his colossal Fame?
Ghost Ship Captain Deoreol is not the only moving in the vicinity.
"Deo.. Glass Bottle ...Lead, sea ...War ...Now."
Planer, traveling at full speed covered a great distance. They came from the northern coast of the continent. Finally he found the Ghost Ship. He was happy that he could now be of service to the famous Undead Captain.
Their Ghost Ship was being pulled by a strong current and was pulling them near the entrance of a whirlpool that could suck them in.
The Ghost Ship must not be destroyed at all cost, no matter what damage may happen to hull as long as we don't become a ship wreck.
The strong current was sucking their Ghost Ship into the whirlpool, they appeared to be moving westwardly from the continent.
"This... is no mistake... Oh..."
Weed went near the entrance of the whirlpool where the Ghost Ship from the North was sucked in.
Where are they? There a huge area to cover!
The sunken Ghost Ship slowly began to merge from the sea.
With the advance skill of summoning undead, the undead started to awaken from the sunken ship wreck.
"Kill kill kill, the fight is not over."
200 years ago there was a famous brutal sea pirate, Jabeuricha!
He was abandoned on a deserted island together with his men. There they starved to death making them spiteful Undeads.
Let him on the white sands of the vial was resourceful in where movable but slip.
On his white sandy beach he found a glass bottle with a message. It inspired him with an unshakable resolution.
"HAHAHAHA, HAHAHAHA KILL!"
With no way off the island he was pacing around the beach, when a passing by Ghost Ship appeared he and his men hitched a ride.
"Where ... are you headed to...? "
"Towards... Weed."
"Come join... destination... this forces."
The Ghost Ship was slipping through storms and rough waves advancing towards the assembling mass of Undead.
To navigate the ship through the storms, logs and kegs were used. The Undead were growing in numbers.
* * *
Pale and company were in Mordred the former capital of the past Nephilheim Empire after barely finishing a Quest.
"Whoa, that was really difficult!"
Irene was reluctant to relax but collapsed on the floor after knowing the difficult Quest was completed.
"Monster's haven, was not an exaggeration."
Hwaryeong was also exhausted and was catching her breath and said.
"I would've preferred it if I was dancing on stage in front of my fans."
She was used to performing enthusiastically in front of many audiences, but in the end dancing in front of a swarm of monsters was the best.
However until now no one in Morata or anywhere else has professionally forged a knight's sword that could equal that of the descendant from a noble family General Commander Biteoreu.
|
|
Another reward from Biteoreu's Legacy Quest were a bunch of jewels, which they decided to keep in secret.
"Soon we can professionally produce quality swords on par with that royal sword and our shield making skills have leveled up as well."
It sure was worth it getting rid of all the monsters and bringing back the legacy of Biteoreu's sword.
Off shore Merchant Mapan was eager to trade the jewels, knowing that they want to dispose of them he will surely make a lot of money with it.
"Everyone, Merchant Mapan here, I have some jewels here that I'm sure you'd like you to make an offer on."
"You must see their caliber."
The local residents started moving towards him to see for their own, needless to say the things that Mapan sells are of a certain degree.
But the crowd mellowed out as once again an event popped out.
Weed, beloved/dear, kill/murder, harm/danger, Hermes Guild, send, reinforcements, Jigolaths, arrival
"Our beloved Weed is in danger. The reinforcements that the Hermes Guild has sent to Jigolaths has arrived and they plan to kill him."
"Isn't it our obligation to help him?"
We don't have to tell you this, Everyone's attention was on Maylon's Royal Road show and other related programs that were watching their encounter.
The Hermes Guild from the Kingdom of Haven had been watching the from the start and was excited to see the fight between Weed and their fleet.
High level users that also arrived at the Jigolaths scene came out on TV.
Due to this event the Versailles continent was filled with innumerable debates.
Because of their persistence on hunting Weed, a huge wealth of the Guild was spent on fighting the Chaos Warriors, they had not expected this.
Pale worried about the discussions he was hearing.
"Weed's whisper is also turned off. ... How are you so unaware?"
"Yurin could ask him in person?"
Hwaryeong didn't want to interfere with Weed's sister, but she had to ask Yurin.
-Yurin, where are you now?
-I'm in a picture.
-Picture? Hey I was wondering... How is your brother these days?
-My brother has a lot of challenges.
-Challenges?
-Yes, we are tired of eating rice at home, I have to go, I have to look for an inspiration for my Painting.
During the time that Weed was mining for the Helium he was always singing.
Any land no matter how fine it looks will not be the same at the end of a storm.
-I'm sure I don't need to worry, I'm sure he is taking care of of it now and everything is progressing as planned.
Yurin strongly believed in Weed.
Since her childhood she had seen her brother encouraging her, assuring her, giving her piggy back rides. She was sure that he'd make everything alright.
She might want to eat cotton candy or want a toy,then a neighborhood kid would "loose" a toy or food, my brother is really reliable in procuring the stuffs that she wanted.
On rainy days he would bring her an umbrella and if the weather was bright and sunny he would bring an unopened ice cream.
Even the famous delinquent kids from the neighborhood would drop in fear when they see Yurin, Weed's younger sister.
Hwaryeong hearing the end of Yurin's summary said.
"Weed sure is a tough one."
Then the rich Sureukaga with a rinkled face thought.
"I think Hermes's users will kick Weed around."
"There's no way Weed can come out of this."
Maylon couldn't believe the interview.
"In order to escape you'd have to run for your life and you'd look really pathetic doing that but eventually you'll just get caught and killed..."
"Ah!"
This reminded them about the movie "The Fugitive" where in the main character was chased everywhere.
So you can relax have a sip of water and watch as the events will naturally happen. The association's campaign in stopping his escape.
Irene's weak heart caused her eyes to moisten in tears.
Drinpelt with his large reinforcements and Pirates where recklessly chasing after Weed. Despite having the odds against him he cannot abandon his quest.
"We have to go to Jigolaths! We have to go and help Weed."
Hwaryeong filled the party in about her talk and they ran to the nearest sailing port.
They bought a boat and immediately sailed for Jigolaths.
"I'm going to enjoy it. The coming show."
Vera said while sailing with the party, they were on their way.
"Wouldn't it be easier if we used Yurin's Picture Teleportation?"
Vera said surprising herself as she suddenly came upon the realization.
"It's not. They wouldn't let me. I tried to say is fine."
It's best to avoid fighting such a strong enemy! That's why we are taking this route.
The hardest part of fighting the enemy in the Jigolaths was due to the existence of the Magician HyunSik.
And so it was justified why they won't be using Yurin's Picture Teloportation even though it would be faster.
The feared God of War Weed was now within the grasp of the Hermes Guild ready to be taken out.
Will all the fame that Weed has amassed come to nothing? Stated the Reporter.
This is what other people call as the unintentional risks in life.
Vera dropped her suggestion with using Yurin's skill after the hearing the Party's explanation as to why they shouldn't use Picture Teleportation.
From past experiences everyone recognizes that what Eotteoteun says has high chance of coming true.
Weed's never give up attitude goes beyond human insanity.
Hwaryeong and Zephyr still have awful nightmares whenever they recall their hunt in Basara Dungeon.
They had to do over 29 hours of continuous hunting that it drove them to the point of desiring Death.
Weed forcefully kept them alive to continue the slaughter of monsters until the Dungeon was completely cleared.
He only gets to experience short breaks whenever Weed's backpack gets full and he's forced to go to town to dispose of his loot.
Even during those short breaks Weed continues on making sculptures.
Because the Jigolaths didn't have any town or village there was no place to dispose of his loot so he has gathered a massive amount of japtem.
"There is no way I'm going to give up on this loot. I'm not going anywhere without it."
"There would be no meaning in life without it..."
"I'd have to go hunting until I collapse in order to make up for the loss if I leave all this loot behind."
A clear disadvantage of using Picture Teleportation in Jigolaths is that there are a lot of hostile monsters roaming around everywhere. You'd be in a dangerous situation even before you can be completely teleported.
In order to rescue Weed from danger the Party decided to purchase a ship sailing towards Jigolaths.
Weed decided to keep himself hidden since he knew nothing of the enemies exact locations.
Determined to arrive in a day or two.
"I don't know any good ways to sail to Jigolaths..."
"I don't know how Weed did it, I've been searching the map thoroughly for several times and I can't find the route."
Mapan hired a skillful NPC to be their Captain. The NPC Captain worried about the plentiful troublesome straits to choose from.
On the northeast coast you could witness a huge procession of Ghost Ships moving towards the direction of the Jigolaths.
The Ghost Ships were also surrounded with rafts and logs from the wreckage of the other ships. Escorting the Ghosts Ships were floating wraiths lead by the Wraith Sin Gahal.
Until now there has not been as such an amazing sight of sea monsters moving together!
Who would've thought that a crazy scene such as this one would come out on the Ocean.
The Party's Ship had not yet reached the northeast coast. Pale and the rest of the Party had yet to see the unerring sight of those taking refuge.
Only upon seeing the stunning sight did Pale and the rest of the Party felt their spirits raised.
"We can't figure out how he... Somehow..."
"Looks like a Historical event waiting to happen."
The Undead sailors where steering the ships as black vultures where flying around the mast going along with them.
Pale's Ship naturally joined in the procession of Ghost Ships spaced at a suitable interval.
There were ships of different kinds and sizes in the procession. However from behind them a huge Battleship was coming for them at terrifying speed, cutting through the formation.
"Hard starboard left!"
The hired ship Captain steered with all his might to the left to avoid the incoming Battleship.
The companions aboard the ship narrowly escaped in the opposite direction of the Battleship.
The Battleship was creating waves and ships that were close enough to it heavily swayed.
On the Battleship was a Dark Knight, Navy Ghost Warrior, a Witch, and other types of Undead as well.
The Battleship did not take notice of its companions, the ship was sailing fervently towards the Jigolaths.
"Phew, barely survived."
"Surviving that near death experience feels great."
They gave a sigh of relief as they watched the battleship move further ahead.
Maylon fingers pointed to the flag of the battleship.
"Guys don't you think we've seen that flag from somewhere before? It seems really familiar."
A struggling in pain and screaming Skull Flag.
Admittedly Pale did remember seeing it.
Remembering the Skull Flag design seems really important especially that scar.
"I'm sure that I have seen something identical."
"I'm sure this design feels vaguely familiar."
Pale was sure that he had seen that design before.
"Where have I seen this?"
There's no way for you to recall every single thing you've seen since you were a child until now, argued Mapan.
"Weed has a wooden sculpture that he used for his second sculptural transformation."
"Yes?"
"I've seen that flag from the time when the Lich Shire was with his Undead Legion. The sherpa witches was carrying that flag when they came out."
Mapan shuddered when he heard this.
If you wanna be rich as a merchant you have to experience near death experiences and giving up challenges like these didn't run in his blood.
"I had to change my attitude every time there is an encounter. I had to remove my anxiety, even if I have inferior combat skills!"
When Karichwi led the combined races of the Dark Elves, Orcs and Humans this elevated his ranking in the Hall of Fame to 5th place.
"Oh, right! The Undead Legion Quest."
Maylon did a big clap as the realization finally came to mind.
"The flag of the Undead King, the ruler of all undead named ..."
"Then those warships that appeared from before belonged to the Undead Legion?"
Everyone's eyes in the Party simultaneously met.
"Let's go!"
"Go!"
"Captain, the maximum sailing speed!"
The crew unfolded the sails making the fastest speed possible to cover the long distance voyage.
However Human Sailors also need to take a break unlike the Undead Sailors. Maintaining the high speed ship also harder for the Human Sailors, this was the reason for the gap between the Ghost Ship and their Ship.
