He Comes From the Void

"Planck, you look like shit."

No one in Bilgewater had ever dared to speak like that to the Pirate King, even though he was deposed now.

Except for one person, the Bharu true, the sea beast priest Illaoi.

The vulgar words in Illaoi's mouth made Plank reflect for a moment, and now he really seems to have lost all his former prestige - he has not eaten anything for several days, and he is haggard. Tom's stomach made him stink, the mucus on his body was covered with fine sand, and there was only mutilated flesh and blood left on one arm, which was waving in vain. What's more helpless, the gun held in the other hand Also forgot to load it.

"Those two whores suddenly appeared and deliberately lured me with the crown of the abyss, causing my ship to be sunk by the sea monster."

Plank let go of all his defenses in front of Illaoi, he was no longer the majestic and ruthless captain, he seemed to have turned into an old child who rolled around because of grievances.

"I don't care about your boat." Illaoi didn't seem to be showing mercy.

Yes, she didn't care about Planck's ship, but about him.

Illaoi's heart trembled violently when she heard that Planck's ship was being towed away by the sea monster.

The two of them had a crush on each other many years ago, and they ended their relationship many years ago...but some feelings still linger. She had loved him... stupid, old bastard.

"You're always telling me to keep going, back to sea. You're going to help me!" Plank said.

He knew that Illaoi would not listen to his old man, only her god could order her, so he used Hu Mu to suppress her.

Life lies in movement. Nagakaporos, whom Illaoi believes in, is not only the god of life in the Python Islands, but also the storm of the deep sea, and the supreme movement itself.

Everything is "moving", and the universe can circulate endlessly.

"What do you want?" Illaoi asked.

"I need Okao and other leaders to support me. They listen to you, as long as you ask, they will help me."

O'Call is a group of disciples that Illaoi developed in Bilgewater.

Illaoi was the most powerful and respected true being in Baru's centuries, but she broke tradition and brought the teachings of the Snake Mother to the disgusting sewage of Bilgewater.

The former True Ones completely ignored the existence of the city, and regarded the outlanders as creatures that were only slightly better than the undead. Only she tries to protect the residents of Bilgewater who are suffering from the attack of the night of soul eclipse, spread the faith here, and at the same time find souls who are strong enough to pass the test.

Therefore, the followers of Okao respect Illaoi very much, and in their hearts Illaoi is more worthy of their followers than her god.

Under her rough demeanor lies wisdom, strength and admirable self-confidence. This is what Plank said, and a group of neutral forces with Illaoi as the core has emerged in Bilgewater.

"Why should I help you?" Illaoi stared at him, staring hard, as determined and ruthless as a snake mother. Priests of Nagakaboros cannot show any mercy or compassion, even if doing so would cause her heart ache.

"My boat is gone, people are dead, and my property has been robbed. If I hadn't met the old devil Tam, I would really be rotten in the belly of the sea monster and turned into a pile of shit! I'm Bill King of Givort, I just want to take over this city, if you don't help me, I will be completely finished..." Plank fell silent as he spoke, his eyes escaped from the other, looking at to the side.

"Tam?"

"Yes, I made a deal with it, and exchanged my arm for this life." Plank lowered his head.

Making a deal with the devil is obviously not a glamorous thing, but he has no choice.

Illaoi moved her lips, and spat fiercely on Planck's face: "It deserves it, I told you that the nearest sea is a bit evil, I told you to calm down, but you didn't listen."

As early as when the golden narwhal crazily crashed into the Nether Abyss, Illaoi sensed something unusual in the flow of the sea, so she left the temple to warn Planck, whom she hadn't seen for more than ten years, but he was He wanted revenge wholeheartedly, but his ears were blinded by hatred, and he didn't listen to it at all.

Plank wiped off his spit and growled, "What the hell will you do to help me?!"

Illaoi continued to poke her eyes angrily, but suddenly her eye sockets became moist.

"You have lost yourself in hatred and lamentation." She said, "You need to complete the soul trial."

"No... I don't want a trial." Planck fell to the ground in fright as if he had heard the most terrifying news.

It is the responsibility of the true one to find people with potential to accept the test. Failure in the test means complete annihilation, but if they survive, they will be changed forever and follow their true destiny sincerely. "Move" again.

Illaoi looked at the captain, he was no longer in the limelight, he was unable to move forward at this moment, he was old and incompetent, and he was very likely to die in the trial.

But she couldn't just send him away, otherwise he was very likely to listen to the devil's slander because he was not firm enough, and thus lose his life.

She had no choice but to meet a suitable subject and not let him participate in the trial was a violation of Naga Kaporos.

"Only if you prove your qualifications in the trials, Okao's gang will support you." Illaoi dropped the god statue "Shenzi" from her shoulders and faced Plank.

"Please...let me die." Plank begged, not daring to look directly at the statue.

"It's up to you, you can only choose to believe in yourself."

"Look!" Illaoi intoned. She stretched out her spirit, calling upon the energy of the Mother Snake, and swung the idol forward.

A glowing mist poured from the idol's mouth, spawning blue-green spirit tentacles around the snake mother's face.

These tentacles are as beautiful as a sunrise on the sea, and as terrifying as the darkest abomination on the bottom of the sea. They multiply exponentially, and it seems that each tentacle can hold the hopes and fears of the world.

"No!" The tentacle pierced Planck's chest, screaming in pain, wrapped around his soul, and pulled it out of his body.

Plank shuddered as the tentacles pulled his soul into Illaoi's face.

His soul is burning with a dazzling blue flame, and the shape of his soul is constantly changing, showing the appearance of many previous lives. It stood there safely, but Planck's body was slapped by countless tentacles, like a canoe in the doomsday tsunami, letting the raging sea ravage it.

Planck staggered and rolled over, dodging the attack as best he could. But with each dodge, more tentacles appear.

The reality around him was twisting and spinning, a swarm of tentacles flapping toward him, pushing him down, farther and farther away from his own soul—closer and closer to annihilation.
