Chapter 49 2 Doomsday Treasure

Chapter 49 2. Doomsday Treasure

Like a big bird with broken wings falling to the ground in the dark.

As the kite carefully made by the kite man made an overwhelming and harsh sound due to its overweight, the three men howled and fell towards the burning island below.

As he neared the chaotic ground, Mason glanced down to see the full panorama of Turtle Island before him.

This island is not big, but it is densely covered with random buildings, and even "bamboo buildings around the island" are spread out on the beach.

It is precisely because these inferior wooden buildings are too close to the also wooden pier that the flames ignited to prevent the zombies from rushing out of the pier easily spread along the beach.

But the strange thing is that even though the pier has been invaded by zombies and is still on fire, the noise and shouting can still be heard in the island town.

It seems that everyone here and there is still enjoying themselves, unaware of the danger that is just around the corner.

Rather, it feels like a chaotic carnival before the end of the world.

A low, dry and ominous roar sounded from the flames. The zombies smelling fresh flesh and blood rushed through the sea of ​​fire. Even though their bodies were burning, they still tried their best to pounce on the nearest escapee.

Mason looked back. Almost all the zombies rushed out from an old trestle. Behind them were several large merchant ships stranded in the shallow sea.

That is the source of zombies.

It is estimated that it was another disaster caused by the "Black Death at Sea".

"Charles! Go blow up some stranded ships!"

When they were two meters above the ground, Mason and Zha Kang jumped down from the rope at the same time. After rolling awkwardly on the ground for a few times, Mason used a communication headset to say to the kite man who was trying his best to control the direction of the fall in the air:

"We'll take care of the dock side."

"Copy that! Ah!"

The kite man's shouts came from the earphones, and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard, followed by Charles's weak response:

"I landed on both feet, boss. But why did I seem to hit someone? Uh, I'll act immediately!"

"boom"

Mason drew out the hand cannon and swung the muzzle, activating his talent for quickly drawing the gun.

Two rounds of large buckshot knocked the sailor zombies rushing behind him to the ground. While the smelly blood flew up, the young man pulled out the shotgun of Old K and said to Constantine who was getting up behind him:

"Get ready to throw forward! Throw it higher."

"Can you hit it?"

The black magician complained.

He grabbed two small medicine bottles, one on the left and the other on the right, and threw them towards the burning chaos ahead. The small bottles were only the size of a fist, and they were thrown out at a speed that could hardly be caught in the night sky.

But Mason raised the muzzle of the gun and barely took aim. The free aiming frame helped him lock the target.

The light sniper fired two shots and shattered the medicine bottle in the air. The mercury-like viscous medicine sprinkled down, covering the chaotic crowd and the heads of the attacking zombies.

Any creature that was contaminated with the liquid, even if it only touched a few bits, would see in horror that its body was quickly covered by gray rocks.

Ten seconds later, dozens of "stone statues" of various shapes appeared in the narrow, crowded and burning area.

Both zombies and living people have been petrified. In this state, they are not afraid of being burned by fire. Moreover, the location of the "breakthrough" chosen by Mason is exquisite. Those petrified statues just happened to block the passage to the island town, and the subsequent zombies were blocked. They were all stuck in the back that was already on fire.

"Your marksmanship is good!"

Constantine whistled and clapped, looking like he was watching the fun.

Mason glanced at him and said:

"Keep throwing it."

"Swish"

Several more bottles of potions were thrown out, and Mason blew them up one after another in the air.

He controlled the impact point and range, and used chillingly accurate sniping to form a "human wall" of petrified zombies. The immovable stone statues soon completely blocked the progress of subsequent zombies.

This weak petrification potion is a by-product of Mason's proficiency enhancement. It is simple to make and has poor effects. Ordinary people will recover after being petrified for a few minutes at most, so it will not hurt if it is used as a consumable.

Behind him, Zha Kang was already close to the sea water and began to cast spells to put out the fire.

Nearly ten flying engineering bombs also formed a "swarm" under the control of the Kite Man, silently crossing the night sky and quickly rushing towards the ship behind which zombies were still pouring out.

Ten seconds later, there were several loud noises accompanied by flames shooting into the sky. The zombies who had not had time to rush out of the merchant ship were blown to pieces together with the ship that once belonged to them.

Judging from the magnitude of the violent explosion, it seems that Charles found the gunpowder barrel on the ship and blasted it accurately.

Mason watched the large group of zombies with nowhere to go turn around and rush toward him. The young man took out a few things from his bag, placed them on the spot, and then ran away.

After running out of a safe distance, he fired a shot in the back.

The flames ignited on the ground and flew forward like a fiery snake. A few seconds later, an extremely violent explosion raised a blazing fireball on the spot, blowing the zombies flying to the ground.

At the same time, Zha Kang's magic is also ready.

The seawater rolled strangely under the night, and small tornadoes swept the water into the sky, and then swept across the entire burning dock in a heavy rainstorm, causing the raging fire to quickly weaken and then be extinguished by subsequent raindrops.

With the cooperation of the three people, this zombie attack that might have dragged the entire Turtle Island into the abyss was contained. Constantine, who was dripping wet, walked up to Mason, pointed to the place where the explosion had just occurred and asked in surprise. arrive:

"What kind of potion is that? So powerful?"

"Those are three gasoline barrels."

Mason replied expressionlessly, causing Zha Kang to look at him strangely.

The young man curled his lips and explained:

"In addition to being an alchemist, I am also an engineer. As an engineer, isn't it normal for me to carry gasoline barrels with me?"

"Boss! Are you safe? The drunks in the town rushed out to help. These cowards are so shameless that they only dared to come out after seeing us win."

Charles' voice came from Mason's headphones. He said awkwardly:

"And when I fell just now, I knocked down the roof of a tavern and injured several people. We may have to pay for it later."

It turns out that even the desperate people in the doomsday still have some reason. They did not rudely ask for compensation from the "Turtle Island Saviors".

In fact, the group of drunks who rushed out of the town in a mess were stunned by a row of stone statues.

The few guys who seemed to be the leaders were obviously knowledgeable.

They whispered about "wizards" and carefully avoided the vivid statues of living people, then swung their swords and guns to smash the stone statues of zombies to the ground.

"Ah, powerful wizards, thank you for putting out the chaos caused by these damn ghouls. You saved the town and are great benefactors to all of us.

We all want to thank you two and the strange guy who fell down."

A guy with a wooden prosthetic leg on his lame leg, a pirate hook on his left hand, and a blind eye came forward and warmly welcomed Mason and Zha Kang.

This guy should be a well-known figure on Turtle Island.

In fact, just by looking at his image, anyone who sees him can tell that he is a pirate captain.

"Just a verbal thank you?"

Zha Kang held up his pipe, flicked his fingers to create a small floating fireball to light the cigarette, and then stretched out his voice and said:

"Want to do something practical?"

This move made the pirate in front of him a little afraid. He turned around and discussed with several guys dressed as merchants behind him, and said with a smile:

"Turtle Island is a generous place. My two adults, in order to thank you for your assistance, you can take anything in the dock warehouse as long as you can carry it.

Also, can we have the honor of knowing your names? I have been in this sea area for 30 years and I don’t think I have heard of it."

"Shua"

Mason threw something to the guy who was testing their identity.

The latter looked down and found that it was a well-made voodoo doll, and quickly turned to the back to take a look at the mark that only pirates could understand.

His face changed.

As if he had touched charcoal, he hurriedly returned the voodoo doll to Mason with both hands, and whispered in an even more flattering tone:

"So you are from the Queen Anne's Revenge. To be honest, I have some friendship with the cunning and evil Captain Barbossa."

"Really? But I don't have any friendship with him."

Mason took back the voodoo doll from Old K, put on airs and said coldly:

"I am friends with Edward Teach, not Barbossa! I heard that my friend died and his famous ship was robbed, so I came.

Tell me, pirate, where is Barbossa?"

The old pirate in front of him bent his waist deeper.

Sweat also oozed from his black face full of scars and wrinkles. From the tone of these two guys, they are very powerful. Don't they even take the legendary pirate Barbossa, who is now popular on the sea, into consideration?

And it sounds like this matter is also related to the death of another legendary pirate "Blackbeard".

Tsk tsk, the water is really deep!

But he couldn't afford to offend such a person, no matter it was true or false, so he could only smile and say:

"The old dog Barbossa is leading his fleet to Turtle Island, wizard. You can stay here for a few days and then you can see him.

In fact, not only Barbossa, but other pirate kings are already coming here.

Turtle Island is honored to be the venue for the third Pirate King Conference. It will become very lively here in a few days."

"Yeah."

Mason entered the "drama queen" state, waved his hand and said coldly:

"I won't go to your noisy bar to join in the fun. I will live at the dock these days, and my slaves will do some trade on your island in my name.

Keep an eye on your drunkards, don't let cats and dogs bother me.

Otherwise my friends will be very unhappy."

After Mason finished speaking, Zha Kang, who knew how to bully others, immediately cooperated with a few sneers.

He is too good at being a villain and pretending to be a ghost.

With a flick of his finger, the green fireflies turned into screaming skeletons and rushed towards the crowd, and then exploded in the blazing sparks, burning the unlucky guys and making them roll and scream.

Now no one doubted Mason and Zha Kang's "wizard" identity.

In this sea of ​​superstition and ignorance, even wizards and prophets who possess mysterious supernatural powers in the era of doomsday are still daunting characters.

"Meow~"

A dry cat cry made the old pirate look up in surprise at this moment, and then he saw Mason take out a delicate bird cage from his arms and it grew bigger in his hands like magic.

In the bird cage, a zombie cat with scarlet eyes was staring at the fresh flesh and blood in front of it like a little tiger.

The old pirate could no longer hold back the horror in his heart and hurriedly took two steps back.

He looked at the two mysterious "wizards" in front of him in horror. At this moment when all survivors regarded "ghouls" as wild beasts, how could anyone dare to take the initiative to tame this doomsday beast that brings death?

Can't afford it!

Confirmed, this is really untouchable.

"Go away! Don't bother me."

Mason snorted, put the "disguise prop" voodoo birdcage back into his arms, waved his hands, and the group of drunkards immediately retreated respectfully.

At this moment, the living people who had been petrified also recovered. They were lying on the ground trembling one by one, not daring to raise their heads to look at the terrifying wizard.

Within a few minutes, the entire pier was quiet again.

"Not bad, I'm starting to think you also have the talent to become a super liar."

Constantine whistled at Mason, stared at the voodoo doll in his hand, and said:

"Is this also the 'legacy' left by that old K?"

"It has expired, but it is indeed a very useful 'identity certificate' on the sea."

Mason threw the voodoo doll in his hand to Zha Kang.

The latter took it in his hand and could tell at a glance that it was the evil way of the Voodoo sect. An old friend of Zha Kang's, Midnight's Dad, who opened a nightclub in New York, was a priest of the Voodoo sect.

But the voodoo doll in Mason's hands is obviously older and more evil.

"Let's go and count the harvest."

Mason glanced at the zombie corpses gathered around and set alight, and then at the burning stranded ships behind him. He and Zha Kang walked towards the dock warehouse that had been burned out for more than half.

These pirates were so stingy and cunning that they actually gave this thing as a thank you to the benefactor who had just saved them.

but

"There are so many magical threads?"

Zha Kang found something good as soon as he entered the warehouse. He picked up a roll of blue spinning thread from a half-burned box, looked at it, and said to Mason:

"The quality is good! It is an authentic product that has been enchanted. It should be valuable anywhere, but now it is just thrown away in a warehouse guarded by pirates.

Look here, any place where a mule is buried is more elaborate than this!

Don't they know the value of this thing?

Or just don't care? "

Mason kicked open the cracked box on the ground and picked up a piece of ore that emitted yellow fluorescence in the dark. Soon an information label popped up:

Blood of the Mountains

Quality: fine minerals

Utility: If you have the right tools, you can get magic metal after smelting. After professional screening, you have a chance to get magic gems for jewelry processing. After professional grinding, you can use it for alchemy or make sand and graphite water for inscription engraving.

Tips: If you hold jewelry processing branch items, the jewelry processing branch skills will be enabled, currently Lv0

"boom"

The red magic fire jumped out from Mason's fingers and began to burn the raw ore in his hand. While he was trying to smelt the ore, he said to Zha Kang who was constantly "hunting for treasure":

"Do you think this is weird? John, think more about the background of the world."

Mason shook his head and said:

“With the medical conditions and response speed of this era, the outbreak of the zombie scourge is an irresistible doomsday disaster, and all the survivors in the world have gone to the sea to survive.

But they didn't come out empty-handed, John.

They brought out their most cherished treasure!

Now the entire world's wealth is gathered on this sea, and the things in the warehouse in front of us are just the most insignificant bits of those 'doomsday treasures'.

Not even a drop in the bucket.

It's not that the survivors on this island don't know the value of these things, but they are almost dead and the world is about to be destroyed. What's the use of having these things?

In this situation, the priceless magic thread is not as precious as a moldy piece of bread.

This island is a great treasure trove. "

The young man looked at the stones in his hands that were being peeled off by the demonic fire and the small pieces of metal that were gradually taking shape. He smiled in the dark warehouse.

Say softly:

"As for how much you can get from this treasure house, it's up to you and me, John."

Ps:

It will be on the shelves next Friday, with a minimum of 50 updates. I will think about the specific situation and come up with a charter and let you know in advance. Please prepare monthly tickets and other things in advance.
