“Your attack dealt 32 points of damage to the contract phantom.”

“The contract phantom's health is below 30%.”

“The contract phantom is gradually collapsing in pain, releasing Banshee's Howl (pseudo), dealing 90 points of damage to all enemies within four meters, with an additional 5-second stun effect.”

“After deducting resistance from stamina, the actual damage you take is 90-21=69 points.”

“You are stunned.”

“You have recovered from the stun effect.”

“The distance between you and the curse caster exceeds one hundred meters, and the curse of the contract phantom on you is lifted.”

“It's actually Banshee's Howl?” Fang Senyan was naturally no stranger to this famous skill, and his heart immediately stirred. Now it seems that even a pseudo version of Banshee's Howl is a very powerful group control and damage skill. Now that Fang Senyan has experienced it firsthand, he has discovered that if it is explained with scientific theories from the real world, Banshee's Howl should be a range-based infrasonic attack that erupts instantly.

When he was a seaman on a ship before, Fang Senyan often heard some terrifying strange tales, and they were even specific to the date, month, and year. For example, in 1990, a Panamanian giant ship named "Marco Polo" suddenly lost contact in a storm while sailing from New Zealand to the United Kingdom. Three days later, all the seamen on board were found to be dead for no apparent reason. In 2003, at the entrance of the Bauládeli Cave in Hungary, three tourists suddenly fell to the ground and stopped breathing... After investigation, the culprit of these bizarre events was infrasound.

The frequency that human ears can capture is from 20 Hz to 80 Hz. Sound waves with a frequency less than 20 Hz are called infrasound. Sound waves higher than 80 Hz are called ultrasound. The oscillation frequency of infrasound is similar to the rhythm of people's brains, which is easy to cause resonance, which can strongly stimulate the human brain. Mild cases cause fear and restlessness, while severe cases cause sudden fainting or complete loss of self-control, or even death.

When the infrasound oscillation frequency is equivalent to the oscillation rhythm of human internal organs, and a person is in an infrasound environment with a high intensity, the internal organs will resonate strongly. In an instant, large and small blood vessels will rupture together, leading to death. The tragedies mentioned above were all caused by infrasound generated when storms swept across the sea, and people usually feel that the roar of a tiger is heart-wrenching, and it seems that even the internal organs are shaking, because the roar made by the tiger when hunting contains infrasound.

“Consider yourself lucky to have escaped.” Fang Senyan took a deep breath, then wiped away the two streams of nosebleeds flowing down his nose, and said coldly. He cast his eyes on the floor. Among the shattered pieces of the wine bottle, there was a slightly blackened circle of parchment, tied in the middle with a rope, which looked quite old. And around this roll of parchment, there was white frost, which is probably why it has been able to be preserved for so many years. And the ghost sealed in the bottle is estimated to have also played the role of a supernatural refrigerator.

Fang Senyan picked up the roll of parchment, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, as expected, the unfortunate pickpocket of the Kerry team was prompted that the task failed, not because he broke the bottle, but because he failed to pass the test of this ghost!

This task has a branching route here. Obviously, one branching route will guide the contractor to the Tortuga Castle, but the reward for the other branching route, which Fang Senyan has chosen, is this roll of blackened parchment!

The cold parchment was opened and spread on the table. A cold air mixed with a strong musty smell hit his face, and he couldn't help but sneeze. The parchment was also painted with patterns, obviously the person who used this paper was of high status, should be a nobleman and a very high-level nobleman. The first thing that caught Fang Senyan's eyes was this line:

“He humiliated me, hindered me hundreds of times, ridiculed my losses, made fun of my gains, despised my nation, blocked my transactions, sneered at my friends, and enthusiastically helped my enemies; why? Just because I am a Jew…….

A large section of the text in the middle is already blurred, and only the handwriting of the last paragraph is still clearly identifiable.

“In the name of my soul and blood, I hereby swear that we will work together to create a future, and even our descendants will live in peace from generation to generation. The blood of the violators will boil, their breathing will stop, the sun's rays will ulcerate their skin, and the breath of the land will imprison their steps.”

The signature reads two names: Bernard Focke and Gubor Jones.

Fang Senyan carefully looked at the words written on the roll of parchment, his eyes fixed as if he wanted to embed every word on it in his mind. At the same time, he received a prompt of 500 Universal Points + 300 Pirate Reputation. Only a few minutes later, the roll of parchment slowly dissolved on the table like an ice cube exposed to the scorching sun, and finally evaporated into the air, and the task ended. Obviously, if this branching route is chosen, the task will end here, and the final main reward will most likely be this parchment - or, to be more precise, the content on this parchment!

Objectively speaking, the difficulty of the task branching route chosen by Fang Senyan is higher than that of the branching route chosen by Kerry and the others. According to the principle that the greater the difficulty of the space, the better the reward, it undoubtedly means that the content carried on this roll of parchment is defined by the Nightmare Space as being worth at least more than twenty pounds + Russell's friendship + a series of possible branching small tasks.

Fang Senyan sat in the room and pondered for a long time before finding a broom, and first carefully collected the broken bottle mouth of the drifting bottle on the ground.

Then he blew out the candle and rested.

The next morning, Fang Senyan first returned to the Bell and Goblet, fulfilled his duties as a boatswain, and stood at the bow of the ship. He found that although the power of the hurricane had passed for the most part, its remaining power was still there, and the sea was still turbulent.

According to Fang Senyan's visual estimation, the waves outside the port were at least five meters high. If he looked into the distance, he could see layers of dark black hills undulating in the distance, full of irresistible power. In this case, even ships with a draft of less than a thousand tons in the real world would not dare to leave the port, let alone sailing ships in the Caribbean pirate world.

Seeing this situation, Fang Senyan was even more certain that the death of that Lady would not be discovered until at least two or three days later. He went to see Kerry by the way, and also reminded him that the guards in the port had relaxed at this time, and it was the best time to return to the team. But Kerry flatly rejected this seemingly natural proposal. Fang Senyan soon discovered that this guy had somehow gotten in touch with Xia Er, and it seemed that after paying a certain price, he was still learning from Xia Er to improve his basic abilities!

Under Fang Senyan's threat and inducement with the airs of a boatswain, Kerry reluctantly told him the news he had obtained. Generally speaking, it is still related to charm. After paying some price, you can try to learn basic abilities from powerful plot characters. This also involves a hidden data called "affinity".

Affinity values ​​are usually only visible to contractors whose charm has reached a certain level. To put it simply, it depends on whether the two sides are congenial. For example, people with fierce faces and strange personalities may have life-and-death friendships, while handsome and decent people may also have deadly enemies. This is the reason for affinity.

Those contractors with very high charm often have the ability to enslave creatures. At this time, they usually have the ability to observe affinity values. If the creatures have high affinity with themselves, then enslaving them will naturally be easy and twice the result with half the effort, while enslaving creatures with low affinity with themselves will naturally be unyielding.

Obviously, the hidden affinity value between Kerry and Xia Er is quite high, so Xia Er would teach him abilities like this, but Fang Senyan would not believe anything if Kerry had not been ripped off. Seeing that the complexion on this guy's fat face was blue and white, like those opium addicts whose addiction had broken out, he knew that he must have paid a considerable and painful price.

After getting this news from Kerry, Fang Senyan began to try to find those pirate subordinates, but he didn't dare to use the "Insight" ability that requires payment too much at this time. After all, if calculated now, he already owes the Nightmare Space a full 900 Universal Points, and the Universal Points he has earned are only 1340 points. Therefore, Fang Senyan could only ask the pirates on the ship one by one, trying to find out if there was a possibility of getting it done.

Unfortunately, Fang Senyan's charm was not very high in the first place, and the probability of encountering this kind of learning opportunity in the early stage is extremely small. Kerry's charm value is probably higher than Fang Senyan's. He has known this news for a full three worlds. During this period, the plot characters he encountered have exceeded at least a hundred, but he has only met one Xia Er who is compatible with him, and he has also paid a considerable price for it. The smallness of this probability can be imagined. If Fang Senyan was not quite famous among the pirates at this time, some of the pirates on the ship would not even pay attention to him, and even at this time they were perfunctory.

Fortunately, Fang Senyan's efforts finally paid off. Armand's assigned deputy, Blind Matt, actually agreed to teach Fang Senyan some key points in footwork evasion during fighting, but the premise was to train publicly every morning. His purpose was very simple, to use Fang Senyan's shortcomings in this area to show off his ability, so as to increase his prestige, so as to prepare for his promotion.
