The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 54 Fountain of Youth 2
But how could this bullet hit Wes? The bullet hovered in the air at an abnormally slow speed, as if it was blocked by a transparent bulletproof vest in front, losing its penetrating power. Then the bullet fell to the ground like a deflated ball.

The pirates on the side all widened their eyes in horror, and one of them couldn't help but shout, "Wizard, he is also a wizard!"

When the pirates heard the word "wizard", they panicked and retreated involuntarily, dodging instinctively.

Blackbeard was furious when he saw this. He suddenly picked up his knife and chopped down a pirate who was trying to escape. He then shouted at the pirates who were trying to escape: "Anyone who dares to run will end up like him! Come on, come at me!"

The pirates were shocked by Blackbeard's cruelty. They raised their muskets tremblingly and fired at Wes.

However, their bullets were like pebbles dropped into water, completely ineffective. Not only did the bullets miss Weiss, but they also hovered three meters away from him, similar to the effect of Blackbeard's first shot, and fell one after another.

Blackbeard ordered the pirates to reload and continue shooting. As the pirates hurriedly fired their bullets at Weiss again, the situation seemed to be a little out of control.

Under Wes's control, the bullets that were suspended in the air were shot back towards the pirates at an extremely fast speed.

The pirates standing in the front row fell like fallen wheat, blood all over the ground, and only painful groans could be heard. The remaining pirates were panicked, their faces pale, and without hesitation, they dropped their weapons and turned to flee.

However, the next second, they ran back in horror.

It turned out to be Hector Barbossa leading the British navy. His eyes were red, like burning flames, and he stared at Blackbeard. "Finally found you, Blackbeard." Barbossa waved his hand and ordered sharply, "Attack and kill Blackbeard!"

The British navy, armed with weapons, immediately took action after receiving the order and launched a fierce battle with the pirates.

The arrogant Blackbeard didn't take his former defeated opponent seriously at all. He didn't even look at Hector Barber. His eyes were always on Weiss.

Blackbeard ordered four strong resurrected corpses to surround Weiss with sharp weapons. Blackbeard himself drew his sword and carefully kept a safe distance from Weiss, his eyes vigilantly observing Weiss for any unusual movements.

Blackbeard's men were not so lucky. They had already been frightened by Weiss's magic, and now their fighting power was like a pile of loose sand, and they were quickly suppressed by the British Navy.

"We can share the Fountain of Youth equally." Blackbeard made a compromise and tried to win over Weiss to fight against the British Navy.

"I still like the way you were just now." Weiss taunted and then attacked.

Under his transformation spell, a rock pillar instantly turned into a huge python. The python's huge body was terrifying. It swung its tail violently and pulled a resurrected corpse out, smashing it heavily to the ground.

This attack forced the other three zombies to stop, and they looked at the giant python warily.

But these resurrected corpses knew no fear, felt no pain, and, after being refined by Blackbeard, their skin and flesh were thick and tough, seemingly indestructible. Although blocked by the python, they continued to confront it tirelessly.

"Try this again." Weiss shouted softly, and attacked Blackbeard with a "Divine Sword Shadowless".

Blackbeard quickly raised the Triton Sword and luckily blocked Weiss's attack. Weiss raised an eyebrow, thinking that the sword was indeed not simple.

"Put down your weapon!" Wes cast a spell, and Triton's sword was hit by the spell, flying out of his hand in an instant and landing not far away.

"Avada Kedavra!" Blackbeard saw a flash of green light approaching. Although he reacted quickly, grabbing a nearby pirate and blocking him, they were both sent flying, falling heavily to the ground. Blackbeard only suffered minor scratches, while the pirate, used as a human shield, was lifeless, his body limp to the ground.

"Avada, bite the big melon!" Years of fighting have made Blackbeard's sixth sense extremely sharp. He quickly rolled and dodged the attack. However, Weiss cast two deadly spells in an instant.

Blackbeard only dodged one of them, and he was still alive.

It was the first time that Weiss had seen an ordinary person survive a fatal curse. Blackbeard took advantage of Weiss's hesitation to pick up the Sword of Triton and quickly closed the distance between them.

Almost at the same time, a pirate who had followed Blackbeard for many years suddenly fell to the ground and died, which confused the British naval soldiers who were fighting against him. They thought they had suddenly mastered some skill to kill people from a distance.

[Some kind of death-substitution witchcraft.] [Death-substitution witchcraft is not without flaws.]

Blackbeard keeps closing in on Weiss.

"Slowing spell." Weiss cast a non-harming spell. As he expected, Blackbeard's movements immediately became slow, as if he was moving in slow motion.

"It seems that your witchcraft can only transfer damage, but not the effects of other spells!" said Wes.

Blackbeard is swinging his sword at Weiss, but his movements are too slow. In slow motion, Blackbeard's movements look very funny.

Weiss then cast a petrification spell at Blackbeard: "Petrification!"

Blackbeard was like a statue, his sword-wielding hand stopped in mid-air, and the whole person stood there motionless.

Wes used his wand to lift up Blackbeard's coat, and as expected, there were five voodoo dolls hanging around Blackbeard's waist, one of which had lost its head.

"So they are voodoo scapegoats?" Weiss touched one of the dolls lightly with his wand, and the doll began to burn.

At this time, one of the pirates suddenly caught fire. No matter how he struggled, he could not put out the flames and was eventually burned to charcoal.

Hector Barbossa noticed something was going on: "Blackbeard used those dolls to divert the damage he suffered. Do you idiots still want to work for him?"

"Impossible, he is our captain!" Some pirates were still unwilling to believe it.

"How is that impossible? He has never treated us as human beings!" Most of the pirates were still very sober.

"Run away!"

"Run away!" The pirates now just wanted to get as far away from him as possible.

Unfortunately, they had no way to escape at this time because the Spanish navy also arrived.

Without saying a word, they shot at anyone they saw, forcing the pirates to retreat towards the British navy.

Just as the British navy was about to shoot the fleeing pirates, they were stopped by Hector Barbossa.

"Idiot, the Spanish are the biggest threat now! Aim at those Spaniards and shoot!" Hector Barbosa ordered loudly.

The British navy under his command finally reacted and realized the change in the situation.

In the previous battle, both the British navy and the pirates suffered casualties, and the Spanish appeared at this time to reap the benefits.

So, the pirates and the British army, who had just been fighting for their lives, began to join forces to fight against the Spaniards.

However, the Spaniards had been gathering their strength for so long and had a large number of people, so they soon suppressed the British army and pirates.

Some of the Spanish began to lasso ropes around the surrounding rock pillars, as if intending to destroy the Fountain of Youth.

Weiss, who was extracting Blackbeard's memory, stopped what he was doing immediately when he saw the Spaniards planning to destroy the Fountain of Youth.

"This is not okay."
