These sounds came together, blowing a cold wind from hell across the sea, making the hairs of everyone who heard it stand on end.
"I have a very bad feeling." Aokiji, who had never shivered before, experienced this novel feeling for the first time. However, this was obviously not a good thing, and the uneasiness in his heart became even heavier...
"Do I need you to tell me that?" Kizaru took out a cigar and put it in his mouth. He tried to light it with a lighter several times but failed. In the end, Akainu pinched the cigar head with his hand that had turned into magma.
The entire navy's top brass was in a state of tension. Garp held the senbei in his hand but did not start eating, and Sengoku also had a gloomy face.
There was no way around it. The extracted black matter gathered in the sky, like thick ink swirling across the sky, gradually obscuring the moonlight. Anyone who saw this scene would feel uneasy.
Steel Bone Kong wondered if his decision to allow the Undead Fleet to break the seal was a mistake. Once Pandora's Box was opened, disaster would ensue. In the end, Steel Bone Kong reluctantly shook the thought out of his mind. His decision was all to preserve the navy's main combat power.
After the blood sacrificed souls had been drained of every last bit of the black substance, they also lost their souls and turned into dead matter. The bones, unable to bear the weight, turned into a pile of powder, which was either sprinkled on the undead's ship or dissolved into the sea water.
Thanks to these undead souls, the black matter in the sky had also filled to a certain extent. The swirling black matter condensed into the shape of a skull. Sershari pointed at the altar, and the skull lunged towards it with a sinister grin.
As the two came into contact, a blazing holy light shone from the altar. Perhaps sensing the inherent hostility of power 3.1 or the threat of destruction, the altar unleashed all its hidden power.
Black and white blended together, and the sound was like boiling hot oil being poured onto ice. Countless small and low explosions were heard on the altar, and were immediately drowned out by another identical explosion.
Finally, the altar's sacred power was exhausted, and the faint light it had been emitting disappeared, turning it into ordinary brown stone. The cylindrical platform used to hold the sealing talisman cracked and exploded into pieces.
After destroying the altar, the black substance changed direction and surged towards the sealed fleet, splitting into multiple streams and enveloping all the ships.
The navy, the undead, and Qin Luo all held their breath. The critical moment had arrived, and the undead fleet here was about to be unleashed.
Chapter 465: Xia Linduo
The undead fleet sealed in the demon's tomb began to move after the black matter swept through.
The sealed skeleton, like dry, cracked earth encountering running water, thirstily sought the energy of flesh and blood. The overwhelming black substance was absorbed in an instant.
The skeleton, having absorbed enough energy from flesh and blood, emits a "thump, thump" heartbeat, which is the fetal movement of the sleeping soul being awakened.
The black shell attached to the skeleton cracked little by little, making a "crackling, crackling" sound.
The black shell shed, revealing the snow-white bones within. At the same time, a black substance oozes out from the bones, enveloping the entire skeleton. Bits of flesh and blood begin to form.
The whole process did not take long. The soldiers of the Fourth Fleet, the fleet sealed in the Demon's Tomb, returned to their former appearance. However, unlike Ayi Du's soldiers, these soldiers were all pale and thin, looking malnourished.
Actually, being able to recover to this level was already quite impressive. Don't be fooled by the greasy-faced undead soldiers of the Third Fleet, where Ayi Du was stationed, looking no different from living people. This was also the result of the Third Fleet's massacre of several port cities, which yielded a vast amount of flesh and blood energy.
Not all of the Fourth Fleet's undead were resurrected. A few, unable to recover from their outer black shells, were reduced to ash. The black matter left behind by these ash-reduced undead didn't lie idle, but instead flew towards a certain point within the fleet.
The weaker the undead, the less flesh and blood energy they received, and the faster they awakened. These awakened undead behaved identically after regaining consciousness, kneeling on one knee toward the area where the black matter had gathered.
The undead continued to awaken, until only the skeleton remained where the black mass had gathered. The black mass, swirling into a ball, swallowed the skeleton whole, then flew away. A crack appeared in the spherical black mass, resembling a mouth, and a roar emanated from within, vaguely sounding like "hungry."
The spherical black substance moved in the air towards the direction of Ayi Du's Third Fleet.
Along the way, three huge claws made of black matter emerged from the sphere, and sent the undead into the sphere when they caught them.
First, there were some kneeling undead from the Fourth Fleet. When they reached the edge of the Third Fleet, the black claws increased from three to ten, and the speed of grabbing the undead also increased.
No matter how powerful the undead were, once they were absorbed into the sphere, they became motionless. Even some captain-level warriors from the Third Fleet couldn't escape capture by the Black Claw. Even Ayidu and Sershali were targeted by the Black Claw, but they easily avoided it.
After a hearty feast, the sphere was finally satisfied. After stopping its capture of the undead, the sphere, which had expanded countless times before, began to shrink, revealing something at its center.
A ghost, a ghost resembling a young girl. She wore a purple hat atop her long, silver-white hair, a purple and black Gothic dress, and a flowered fan in the same style as her dress. It was hard to tell if the fan ribs were made of white jade or bone.
The girl had a clean face and light blue eyes that gave people a sense of otherworldliness. If you didn't see the girl emerging from the sphere made of black matter, no one would think she was a ghost.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Highness Ayi Du." The girl spread out her flower fan, covered her mouth and said to Ayi Du. Behind the fan, the girl licked her lips, and her two fangs were exposed in her mouth.
"It is my greatest honor to be satisfied with Saint Charlene." Although he did not have a good relationship with the girl in front of him before, Ayi Du still followed all the necessary etiquette and bent down to return the greeting.
A thousand years have passed, and the times are no longer the same, but both Ayi Du and Xia Linduo have maintained the etiquette of that time. Perhaps this is what is called having (zhuang) connotation (bi).
The girl is Xia Linduo as mentioned by Ayi Du, the highest person in charge of the Fourth Fleet and also the Saint of the Church of Death at that time.
If this was what Charlene looked like when she was alive, then she should be canonized as a saint based on this appearance alone. Even the church needs publicity, and with Charlene as a saint, who knows how many ignorant believers this image will deceive.
"Haha, if His Highness Ayi Du really feels honored, why not give Sershali to me. I feel that I haven't fully recovered yet. If there is a sacrifice with the same power as me, it should be enough." Being in the Church of Death, even if she is called a saint, you can't expect her to really have a holy heart.
On the contrary, Charlene's personality was quite terrible. Like a venomous snake, once it had its prey set its sights on it, it would linger around it. This wasn't the first time that Ayi Du had been disgusted by this woman.
"Charlindo, I didn't rescue you to argue with you. A thousand years have passed, and now only our fleets have escaped the seal in the entire church, so there are many things waiting for us to do. I no longer care about you eating the crew members of my fleet just now. Let's just stop talking about some things." Ayi Du said with a gloomy face.
"Well, I just want to say that neither I nor my men have fully recovered. I didn't expect to sleep for a thousand years. I just woke up, so you have to tell me what the situation is first. It happens that while my men are eating, you have enough time to explain the situation to me." Xia Linduo closed the fan and said.
At the same time, Charlene gestured to her Fourth Fleet, and the undead soldiers who received her orders stepped into the land of O'Hara one by one from the port.
The "eating" Charlindo mentioned naturally meant hunting the inhabitants of O'Hara Island to absorb their flesh and blood energy. From a distance, Charlindo could smell the scent of living people on O'Hara Island. If their numbers weren't so small, she wouldn't have sent only her men to attack. As for the navy, she figured she couldn't afford to provoke them for the time being.
The moment the undead set foot on O'Hara, the navy also took action. The navy stayed behind for two reasons: one was to witness the entire process of the seal being broken and transmit the information back. The other was to ensure the complete destruction of O'Hara, whether it was at the hands of the navy or the undead.
The moment the undead set foot on O'Hara's land, O'Hara, without ships, was doomed to destruction.
"Pass the order down, bombard the Tree of Omniscience. After the Tree of Omniscience collapses, we will leave." Marshal Gang Gukong issued the last order. He must ensure that the entire O'Hara and all the materials related to the historical text are destroyed.
Chapter 466 The Rescued
Two hundred naval vessels turned their heads, following Marshal Kong's instructions, and adjusted their positions to allow them to accurately bombard O'Hara while also facilitating a quick retreat from the area afterward.
Those undead are a bunch of lunatics. If we don't act quickly enough, they might cause trouble for the navy.
When the navy made it clear that it was going to bombard the Tree of All-Knowing, Qin Luo and his group were not idle either. When the Undead Fleet lifted the seal, Dr. Kuroha appeared in front of the gathered Ohara residents with Olivia.
The job of explaining was left to Dr. Kuroha and Olivia.
Regardless of the bewildered expressions of the rest of the O'Hara scholars, Dr. Kuroha told them all about his plans for the next few days.
Although they were told that someone would come to rescue them, none of the residents of O'Hara were happy. Although they hid in the All-Knowing Tree, it did not prevent them from observing the situation outside through the windows.
At this moment, the undead came ashore and the navy opened fire. They did not think that the person Dr. Kuroha mentioned could really save them.
Desperate to survive but distrusting the ability of rescuers, the terrified residents of O'Hara were no different from ordinary people. The knowledge of those scholars did not help them overcome their fear.
The whole scene became tumultuous and out of control amidst the shouting and arguing. It was so dangerous that these people had no regard for order.
Neither Dr. Kuroha's prestige nor the surprise of Olivia's return gave them more credibility to the plan Dr. Kuroha said.
Watching this scene, Olivia couldn't help but connect these people with the people who committed suicide in Chitose Castle. Those who committed suicide clearly had the option of escaping, but fearing death and the futility of escape, they stayed where they were, waiting to die or committing suicide.
This expression of contradiction and fear was identical. The scholars among these 1,600 people were even more desperate than the average person. Was it because, after rational consideration, they concluded that the probability of survival was too low?
At this moment, a black hole expanded behind Dr. Kuroha and stabilized after reaching a size large enough for six or seven people to pass through.
Qin Luo walked out of the Shenwei Space in the form of Liuyun. Actions speak louder than words. The appearance of Shenwei Space and Liuyun quieted the scene.
"I'm Liuyun, and I'm here to save you." The scene started with a domineering self-introduction.
Qin Luo felt that at this time, he should change into a white robe, put a halo on his head, and insert two wings on his back. The effect would probably be better.
After a brief moment of shock, the scene became lively again, with all kinds of opinions circulating.
"Liuyun God, is it really Liuyun God? God has come to save us."
"Didn't Liuyun have been killed by the navy? I've read a lot, don't try to deceive me."
"It must be fake. Dr. Kuroha has Alzheimer's, and you're mentally retarded too. Even if you want to find someone to impersonate the God of Flowing Clouds, don't find a bald guy. He has no sincerity at all."
"Oh, I don't care whether he's real or not, as long as he can save me."
What's going on? Qin Luo turned around and looked at the other people with a puzzled look on his face.
The O'Hara Scholars were silent, still looking bewildered. Dr. Kuroha followed Qin Luo's gaze, tilted his head to the side, whistled, and pretended not to see Qin Luo. Looking at Olivia again, she gave him a look that said, "What can I do? I'm also desperate."
It turns out that Dr. Kuroha and Olivia haven't been able to deal with O'Hara's 1,600 people yet?
In the end, he still had to do it himself. Qin Luo sorted out his thoughts.
The first step to take is to get these 1,600 people to calm down and listen to him. At this time, don't blame him for being too rough.
Qin Luo raised his right hand, and with the help of his physical strength, his right palm suddenly grew larger, and then he slapped the empty bookshelf next to him. The wooden bookshelf turned into a pile of wood chips under Qin Luo's attack. The sudden huge movement made everyone in the field quiet down again and look at Qin Luo.
"I don't care what doubts you have. I don't have the time to answer you, nor do I want to. You just need to know that I am Liuyun. No one can fake this kind of ability."
Qin Luo paused here. He found that after seeing his strength, these people still looked at him with doubtful eyes. Following their gaze, Qin Luo's hand kept moving up and touched the bald head.
Qin Luo took a deep breath and wondered if he should just let these people fend for themselves. Finally, Qin Luo changed his mind under Olivia's eager gaze.
"I'm not dead, but something unexpected happened to my hair. That's not important. Now you have two choices: either wait for death here, or try to go through the space door behind me. Apart from death, this is the only way for you to escape. What are you hesitating about?"
"As for those planning to hide, I advise you to give up the idea. Neither the navy nor the undead will let you go. The navy will soon begin bombarding O'Hara. Even if you manage to escape, the hungry undead will dig you out of your hiding and kill you."
Qin Luo said this all. His principle has always been to save those who can save themselves, and let those who cannot be persuaded die.
After Qin Luo spoke, the entire library fell silent. Everyone was thinking about Qin Luo's words. Apart from death and that door, they had no other choice.
What was helping them make their decision was not Qin Luo's words, nor Dr. Kuroha's advice, nor their own decision. Instead, it was the navy's artillery fire.
The navy's first bombardment of O'Hara was a salvo from two hundred ships, the whistling shells playing a melody of destruction.
The Navy did not know that everyone on O'Hara Island was now gathered at the Tree of All-Knowing, and this first round of artillery fire was aimed at the residential area on O'Hara Island.
In an instant, the area around the Tree of Omniscience turned into a sea of fire, and the explosions shook the Tree of Omniscience.
This is not the original novel. The number of warships is 200. Qin Luo guaranteed that if there were only two rounds of such salvos, the Tree of Omniscience would be finished.
If you stick your head out, you'll get a knife. If you hide your head, you'll get a knife too. Under the gunfire, someone finally figured it out and ran towards the space door behind Qin Luo. This was a desperate measure. Even if you didn't believe in this kind of power, there was no other choice, right?
After someone took the lead, more and more people began to walk into the door, and some hesitant people also began to choose to follow blindly.
Human inferiority: distrust, selfishness, lack of courage to face the unknown, fear of choice, and collective blind obedience.
The more disastrous the moment, the darker the person's side becomes. This wasn't the first time Qin Luo had seen someone being rescued.
Chapter 467 Transfer and Arrangement
It was true that a lot of time was wasted at the beginning, but once they got moving, it was quite fast for 1,600 people to pass through a space gate that could accommodate eight people.
Coupled with the deadly artillery fire from behind, these people were no longer unable to move as before, and their legs and feet were extremely nimble.
Halfway through, the navy fleet's artillery fire began to fall on the Tree of Omniscience.
Two rounds, just two rounds, and the Tree of All-Knowing was burning fiercely in the baptism of fire. However, this was much better than Qin Luo had expected at the beginning, and it had endured one more round than he had imagined.
Well, a library constructed entirely of wood is inherently unscientific. Who knows, whoever built the Tree of All-Knowing might have bought a hefty insurance policy for it.
The upper levels of the blazing Tree of All-Knowing began to collapse, and large, burning fragments fell to the lower levels, causing panic.
Of course, it was just panic. With Qin Luo here, a repulsive shield could block all of this.
After everyone evacuated, Qin Luo waved his hand, and the corpses collected in the Shenwei Space were moved to the hall on the first floor of the Tree of All-Knowledge.
Sixteen hundred bodies rested here in place of the residents of O'Hara. In order to ensure that no flaws were revealed, Qin Luo drew fire and gave these dead souls of Qiansui City a decent cremation.
At least they don't have to worry about their bodies becoming supplements for the undead that killed them.
Everything that needed to be done had been done, and the plan of using Li Dai Tao Jiang was proceeding quite smoothly. Even if the navy sent someone to check now, they would not be able to find that the people on O'Hara had been evacuated.
If nothing else unexpected happens, O'Hara will completely disappear from the public eye until some specific time.
He took a last look at the burning Tree of All-Knowing. He really liked the view from the treetop, but it was a pity.
Such a large flammable building is a living target for the naval fleet. It is really the kind that you won’t miss even with your eyes closed. Qin Luo can’t think of any way to save it.
After leaving O'Hara, Qin Luo first came to the golden city of Shandora on Sky Island and released the 1,600 people in the Shenwei space.
Compared to the empty, barren, and dark Shenwei space, the environment of Sky Island is many times better.
The surprise of the 1,600 people in O'Hara when they learned that Sky Island would be their future residence.
No, the surprise was so big that it turned into a shock, so that most people could not believe that what they saw was real. They all thought they were dead and their souls had gone to heaven.
Indeed, the sky island floating above the clouds, like a fairyland, can easily be mistaken for heaven.
But not everyone knows that there is a White Sea at an altitude of 7000 meters, and above that, there is another White Sea at 10000 meters. Even if they have heard of it, they may not have visited it.
The only person in O'Hara who has actually been to Sky Island is probably Olivia, who was brought here accidentally by the Golden Lion.
As for the learned O'Hara scholars, Qin Luo didn't underestimate them. These people were all senior homebodies, typical dead houses, who had only seen illustrations of Sky Island in books.
However, it seems that both scholars and civilians in O'Hara like the environment of Sky Island very much, and they all regard it as a paradise.
Qin Luo hopes that after the novelty of these people wears off, they will still like this place as always.
Sky Island is located in the Baibai Sea. It is not as rich in resources as the islands in Qinghai, and there are no caravans coming and going.
Didn't you see that just a few apples were treated like treasures by Enel, becoming tributes that only he could enjoy. This kind of person has the nerve to call himself a god. I've never seen such a cheap god.
Qin Luo can only guarantee that the 1,600 people in O'Hara can survive, but if they want to live well, Qin Luo has no plans to provide fresh food delivery service for the time being.
