The first day after leaving Adriatic Island and sneaking on the central ocean, the wind was calm;

The next day after leaving Adriatic Island and sneaking on the central ocean, the waves were quiet.

It was not until the third day that Talos and his group encountered the first wave of pirates.

But it was not the pirates who robbed them, but Talos "robbed" the pirates.

At first, Talos refused when he received the news from the Black Sea Knight that "a pirate ship sailing on the sea 100 yards away from us". His target was the crazy girl Juana and the other party's possible secrets about gold coins, which were not something ordinary pirate could pass it at will.

But just as he was about to ignore the pirates and continue to move forward quickly, the gold coin he was playing with suddenly trembled.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but the young Naga saw the chains on the front pattern of the gold coin swaying left and right, like a compass.

"Hold on--"

Talos raised the gold coin and put it in front of him. He observed carefully in Richard's confused gaze. He had no illusion that the chains on the hanging gate were indeed different from the previous ones, pointing diagonally above them - that was the position of the pirate ship.

With all kinds of clues such as gold coins, treasures, and ancient Sardinian dynasty connected together, it is difficult not to let Talos make such a bold guess that this group of pirates might have another gold coin in their hands.

So the order turned a corner in Talos's mind and turned into another content: "Rise the ship, as the master of the ocean, how can we not treat humans who come from afar from land?"

The owner of the ocean is a self-proclaimed commonly used by Nagas. Just as humans often position themselves as the owner of the mainland, of course, the two mortal enemies, the mermaid and the fishman, will never admit it.

Crazy-

Richard once again witnessed the spectacular process of the Gallon floating on the Shanghai surface, and in the first person perspective.

"Curse, the curse is coming!"

When the Gallon landed on the sea with a lightness and grace that was extremely inconsistent with the hull, Talos did not hear the expected exclamation and praise, but a roar of horror and despair.

"To be honest, you felt this way when you saw the Garon?" Talos couldn't believe that his carefully prepared appearance method was to curse rather than cheer, even if the other party was considered an enemy from the beginning.

Richard quickly shook his head and expressed his attitude: "Of course not, the goddess of wealth can testify that I was so happy that I was almost crazy. I was not so happy when I earned the first 100 gold coins in my life!"

Given the circumstances at that time, he would be happy even if it was a ghost ship.

"You are right, they are wrong-"

"Master Talos, you'd better come and see it yourself. Their situation is not right." A Black Sea Knight reported to Talos loudly.

With a little curiosity, Talos dragged his tail forward to check it out, and saw the pirates on the opposite boat huddled together like a group of frightened quails, with a look of horror on his face.

On the deck on the other end of the pirate ship, there was a beard lying, and seemed to be asleep.

The reason for emphasizing "seems" is that the other party is lying on the deck with his eyes closed, and there is an empty wine bottle at hand, but his face is distorted and his body twitches from time to time.

The wounds appeared out of thin air on the bearded body, separating the man's texture, and seriously even cutting the abdominal cavity and chest cavity, with red blood flowing everywhere.

What's even more strange is that no matter how serious the wound was, his beard kept sleeping. His eyelids tried to open, but were suppressed in his sleep by a terrifying force.

When another wound appeared on the bearded arm, the poor man finally twitched and stopped breathing.

Two minutes later, Talos took over the pirate ship.

The pirates, who were no more than one hundred people, were generally only at the first level of strength. The pirates who were scared by the strange scenes were no match for the Garon at all.

——The current strength of the Gallon is a first-level bloodline knight, 37 second-level bloodline knights (Black Sea Knight and Richard), 12 second-level mages, and a third-level sword master. The lineup can be said to be very powerful.

When Talos was three feet away from the bearded body, the high-level swordsman Lucia immediately performed very seriously the duties assigned to her by Sandra: "Master Talos, I am afraid I cannot watch you personally contact the dead before obtaining more effective information."

The pirates said it right just now, it is indeed like a curse, and it is not weak.

"There are many types of spells that can cause damage to the target out of thin air, but they all require the mage to participate in it personally. The most likely thing to do after eliminating these options is curse." Talos stood calmly on the deck three feet away from the corpse and talked happily.

Reversely deducing the types of spells from the target's wounds and residual spell traces is a skill that every excellent mage must master. If you come to the scene in person, you will be able to collect and master more information.

Although Talos could no longer use spells, he had no lack of any knowledge he should have.

Of course, what is more important is that Talos has a gold coin in his hand and knows more information.

"The deceased had three different wounds, namely sharp, blunt and gnawing." A Naga wizard reported to Talos. "After comparing the shape of the wound, it was initially determined that it was scratching, hammering and gnawing of large monsters."

Another Naga mage immediately analyzed: "The detection magic shows that there are no other casters around, and there are traces of black magic left on the dead. There are 90 possible reasons for the death of the dead as a curse."

"Nightmare Curse!" Talos said affirmatively.

"I'm afraid it's not an ordinary nightmare curse." Master Naga's expression was a little solemn.

Curse is an indispensable part of the black magic, or negative energy spell system, and it is also the most fundamental reason why the black magic is famous.

The types of curses are extremely complex, and some can only be considered pranks at most, such as tripping curses, which can only cause flat ground because they trip their legs while walking. More of them can cause serious damage to the target, or even fatal damage.

The Nightmare Curse is a relatively common curse in black magic. It can cause the target to suffer from nightmares in his sleep, make people feel depressed, or go further, suffer from nightmare attacks and severe mental damage.

"But if the damage encountered in my sleep is mapped to reality and acted on the target, as far as I know, only a few spells can create similar effects-"

"The horror illusions of the Illusion faction, the holy marks of the death, the memory of the dead in the Spirit faction, and the curse of the High Nightmare." Talos added.

"Yes, the High Nightmare Curse, a terrible curse that can only be planted by a great wizard who is proficient in black magic."

"The deceased had a large number of traces of black magic left on his chest, and it was initially determined to be a magic item carrying the curse of the higher nightmare."

While reporting, the other Naga wizard stretched out his left hand and grabbed the bearded chest from the air, and a golden coin flew out of it.
