Chapter 278: Returned With GloryTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

[Knight Leader Cade’s Space Package]: 10*10 cubic meters. Only one Space Package is allowed to take effect in a player’s bag.

Lin Jie was overjoyed as this was ten times larger than the one dropped from the pirate. Unfortunately, the system stipulated that players could only use one at a time. Otherwise, he would be able to reclaim seas if his bag was filled with Space Packages.

Without rushing to check the rewards, Lin Jie left Cade’s place quietly. At this time, Wu Dongdong had led a group of sailors and 20 pirates on the Flying-Wing Cargo Ship and the pirate ship, waiting for Lin Jie’s command.

“Big brother, I know this Flying-Wing Cargo Ship worths a high price, but… I suggest to leave it behind.” Wu Dongdong plucked up his courage and said, “It belongs to a player and has some protective measures. There are NPCs in the Guild of Marine Freedom to help the players to seize ships, and they can easily locate the Flying-Wing Cargo Ship. At that time, I’m afraid that we’ll be in danger again.”

“Also… it’s twice as big as the pirate ship, it’s not easy to take it away without drawing the Paladins’ attention. Once they notice, we might be staying in prison for a while.

“But I’m just giving my advice. Brother, we’ll obey your command.”

Lin Jie kept silent. Wu Dongdong’s words were not unreasonable. After all, this was Baili Xuanyuan’s ship, and the price of it was exorbitant. If Baili Xuanyuan was willing to pay the NPCs, there would be a bunch of them helping him to seize his ship.

This could be really troublesome.

“Human, you can pass the ship to us.” Lin Jie was stunned by this solemn voice; it was from the captured Enhanced Elite pirate! The pirate who was speaking now was the first Enhanced Elite to surrender. He said seriously, “We’ve betrayed Simon as we surrendered to you, and once he finds us, we can’t escape from the fate of death. If you give me the Flying-Wing Cargo Ship, I can work under you.”

Lin Jie’s eyes flashed. It was really a good choice to give it to the pirates! It was natural for the pirates to take away the Flying-Wing Cargo Ship as they were from the opposing camp. Moreover, even if Baili Xuanyuan wanted to take the ship back, he could only go to Crying Bay.

Given this…

“OK! Get on board and go!” Lin Jie shouted. The sailors rushed to the pirate ship and the Flying-Wing Cargo Ship set sail, and slowly separated from the fleet.

As the crowd was full of joy and thought that they could leave safely, a yellow circle suddenly appeared on the sea. When the ships touched the circle, the sea roared, and the Paladins and Priests, who were bewitched by the powder, came to their senses, and they were enraged. Knight Leader Cade even stood at the bow and commanded his people to kill them all.

“What do we do?”

“OMG, the speed of their navy ships is much faster than ours.”

“Hurry up and sail! We may still have hope of escaping if there’s a storm!”

Not only the players but also the 20 Enhanced Elite pirates were in a hurry. They were the slippery ones in the sea, their ability to identify directions was much better than Lin Jie’s. With their lead, there was no need to worry about going to a dead end.

But the navy ships were coming close!

Kaboom-

The shells hit over, and the surface of the ocean turned to the moon’s surface instantly.

At this time, inexplicable sea fog appeared at the sunny sea level—the fog got thicker and thicker, and when they breathed, it was like breathing in water in the clouds!

The pirate at the helm laughed. “The sea is helping us! Human, you have to thank us. If our luck had not attracted the help of the Son of Sea, it would be impossible for you to escape from the navy ships… You, you!”

A loud scream attracted everyone’s attention.

Lin Jie stood at the bow of the ship indifferently, his hands were spread out, and in front of him, the fog was dense. The navy ships could hardly track their ships, but there was no fog around Lin Jie at all.

“Is this… the pirate king’s unique skill, Illusionary Trace?”

“Yes, it must be. Only such a legendary skill could have this kind of effect.”

The pirates crawled down in horror, their eyes were full of fanaticism and respect. At the same time, their names turned pure dark green, which meant that they would never betray Lin Jie.

That was right, the skill which Lin Jie was using was the Legendary skill [Illusionary Trace]!

Pirate King was the most admired one of all pirates. He plundered countless treasures across the sea and had an invincible fleet, but his own skill, Illusionary Trace, was even more powerful! Lin Jie only realized how wide the range of coverage of this skill was after using it. Not to mention two ships, he could easily cover up 100 ships using this skill!

Not only that, but he could also manipulate the fog to turn to corrosive acid rain in the range of Illusionary Trace. Acid rain was a great threat to wooden ships, it could corrode the hull and drown the people on the ship.

Hoo-

Hoo-

The speed of the ship had tripled, and that was the power of a Legendary Skill! At this moment, Lin Jie was full of power, like the King of Fog, and shocked these pirates to the point they didn’t dare to resist.

Lin Jie said calmly, “Now that you know my identity, I won’t hide it anymore. I just hope that you keep your mouth shut, otherwise…”

“Yes, we’ll follow the Pirate King’s instruction!”

“The Pirate King is invincible!”

Listening to the praise, Lin Jie almost could not help to laugh out loud. It was so easy for these pirates to be fooled. As he waved his hand, they went to work obediently, but Wu Dongdong approached with a confused look, “Big brother, how do you become… the Pirate King?”

Lin Jie smiled. “I only used a little trick. These pirates are all level 40 Enhanced Elites. If we don’t suppress them, they may become disloyal again once the crisis has passed, and this can pose a great threat to us.”

“I see, I thought you were an NPC.” Wu Dongdong smiled embarrassingly, he sighed again and said with guilt, “I can apologize properly this time. Sorry, I was planning to send the fast boat to City of Light to transport a batch of goods and get some ammunitions without extra effort, but I didn’t expect to meet the Holy Church Navy.”

“It’s not a big deal, I think it was because something happened in the Holy Church. Well, Wu Dongdong, we’ve had a hard time together. I have to go back to City of Light to complete my mission, as for you…” Lin Jie thought for a moment and said, “I recommend you to go to a place, but I don’t know if you have the courage to go or not.”

Wu Dongdong’s eyes brightened. “Tell me more.”

“It’s called Desolate Town, located on the coast. During the day, there’s no trace of people, but it’s full of cries of terror at night. The townsmen died in the plague two years ago, but their souls did not dissipate.” Lin Jie said, “Recently, a ghoul has appeared at the town and eats the hearts of the corpses in the middle of the night. You can head down in the evening, and the souls of the townsmen will entrust you with the mission of transporting their corpses to the Undead at City of Funeral Bell of Tribe of Darkness.”

“City of Funeral Bell? Are you talking about the place where the Undead players from Tribe of Darkness live? But we’re from the Guild of Light.”

“Listen to me first. After you have handed over the corpses to the Undead Mage, he’ll be satisfied with the soul-possessing corpses, and hence revive them into Hatred and Undead. Then, he’ll give you the freedom to choose the trading items, but remember, don’t choose anything else but Nogferg’s Potion! It can turn you Undead and keep the trade going.” Lin Jie knocked his head to make his memories clearer. “After that, you can transport the Anticorrosive Potion from City of Funeral Bell. It’s used by the Undead to keep their body glossy and insect-free. Although it’s very cheap in City of Funeral Bell, it’ll be a super valuable potion in City of Light! Then, go to the Holy Church and bribe the Cardinal, ask him to give you those corpses.”

Wu Dongdong opened his mouth wide in surprise. “Are we… smuggling? All of these are illegal.”

Lin Jie smiled and pointed to the Flying-Wing Cargo Ship under his feet. “What other ways can we hide it apart from this?”

“…”

After a long silence, Wu Dongdong gritted his teeth and said, “Okay, I’m doing it! It’s just going to the Tribe of Darkness! Let’s go!”

“Great! This is the Faked Death Potion, which can temporarily stop you from breathing, use it wisely.” Lin Jie passed the potion to Wu Dongdong and patted him heavily on the shoulder. “I’m waiting to scale to greater heights under your wings.”

Wu Dongdong said solemnly, “I’ll definitely train my wings to become the most powerful wings in the sea before you need me!”

Psht, was this a… promise?

The two looked at each other and smiled before the ship moved forward quickly.

One day and one night went by. When Lin Jie came to the end of his voyage and set foot on the land of Desolate Town, he almost fainted.

Seasick people like Lin Jie could not handle the journey well.

Lin Jie found the teleportation circle, which was deserted, facing everyone and smiled, and said, “Okay, brothers, I’ll see you next time!”

Everyone looked at Lin Jie with gratitude.

If not for his help, they probably would still be farming the NPCs’ favorability at the port and waiting to go out to the sea.

“Big brother…” Wu Dongdong called him but did not know how to continue.

“Hehe, actually, I’ve been taking advantage of you for a long time.” Lin Jie smiled and took off his Hermit Helmet, revealing his sunny and handsome face. “According to age, you’re my elder brother, hahaha. Bye!”

The teleportation circle squeaked and worked slowly. In the next instant, Lin Jie disappeared in a ray of light.

With a serious face, Wu Dongdong said, “Brothers, he has helped us too much. If we can’t show him some achievements, we must jump into the sea together and delete our accounts!”

…

—”Welcome back to City of Light. This teleportation costs 25 gold coins and 9 silver coins in total.”

At the moment when he reached City of Light, Lin Jie almost bit off his tongue. “WTF, so expensive? Really???”
