Smelting everything from pirates

Chapter 603 The Monster Lands
When the three of Barrett and the others ran from the villa to the small town, they saw the torrential rain on the square of the small town from a distance, but in the middle of the square, dozens of old people were kneeling in the middle, praying nonstop.

"What the hell are those people doing?" Edward asked, puzzled.

But the old men and the sailors didn't talk to each other.

This made the three of Barrett, Edward, and Gloria extremely puzzled, but Barrett realized that in the distant sea, those monsters would still come up, so he pointed his finger at the distance.

Edward looked forward in the direction Barrett was pointing at, and vaguely saw the half-human, half-fish monsters they had killed in the cave on the island.

"Do they think those monsters will spare us humans? It's really ridiculous." Edward slowly took out the revolver in his hand, suppressed the bullet, and said coldly at the same time.

In addition to those old people, there were also some women and children who were also forced to kneel in the square by the old people, as if they were not willing to resist at all.

But most adult men and young people all took up weapons, and they knew in their hearts that they needed to fight pirates on the sea, and it didn't matter to fight those monsters in order to protect their homes.

Although they still don't know how powerful those monsters are, ordinary bullets probably don't have the ability to break through the scales of monsters.

Only Barrett's marksmanship is good, every attack can hit the eye, and then directly explode the head, but that's because Barrett is very close to the group of murlocs.

That's why he was able to shoot his head off like a god.

But I don't know why the group of monsters in the sea has not broken through the sea to land so far.

Probably because the murlocs have some rules and regulations, they cannot go up to the land, but now it is raining like a torrential rain.

The young people began to gather in Paul's bar, silently pressing bullets into the guns in their hands, and at the same time feeling that the fearful people were pouring wine into their mouths one mouthful at a time.

Relying on their alcoholism, they looked at the distant sea with red eyes, as if they wanted to kill the group of monsters with their eyes.

Only Barrett leaned on the chair next to him indifferently, closing his eyes and resting his mind. When those people saw Barrett like this, they didn't know whether the stranger in front of him was resigned to his fate, or because he had no fear at all. .

But when those sailors heard what the old man said, they thought of the corpses those old men found from the caves in the north of the island, and even the guns didn't break their scales.

I don't know if the few broken guns in my hand can kill all the murlocs rushing out of the sea.

I can only be silent in my heart.

But in fact, Barrett has been thinking about what the group of monsters came to Blackwater Island to do. The purpose of the murlocs is very simple from the beginning to the end, which is to liberate Cthulhu from the seal come out.

The purpose of coming to Heishui Island must be like this, so since it is to liberate Cthulhu from the seal, in order to wake up this ancient old ruler from sleep and seal, a lot of things need to be achieved. conditions of.

In Lovecraft's novels, although the secret cult of Cthulhu spreads to every corner of the whole world, from the deserts of Arabia to the ice fields of Greenland, from the heartland of Louisiana in the United States to the near New Zealand There are fanatical believers in the southwestern islands and even in the mountains of Ancient China.

The main believers of Cthulhu are the deep divers, that is, the murlocs. In addition, Kun Yang also worships him in the underground world. The believers believe that Cthulhu and his compatriots descended from the stars to the earth. When rising in the waves, the believers will go together to open the huge stone gate of Cthulhu who is sleeping behind him. At that time, Cthulhu will wake up and control time again.

But the problem is that when Lalaiye rises to the surface of the sea, the required requirement is to meet certain starry sky conditions, but when Barrett looks up, not only is there no starlight above his head, but there is also no sunlight.

So what are the group of deep divers, the murlocs, here for?

Perhaps Barrett should change his way of thinking. The purpose of that group of monsters was never to summon Cthulhu from R'lyeh at once.

They may be a link in a certain major plan, and Heishui Island is a link in this link, so when this group of monsters comes here, it is understandable and known.

Now that he knew this, the most important thing for Barrett to do was to stop them. Although the group of sailors in front of him looked extremely courageous, as long as the casualty rate exceeded 10%, they would probably surrender directly.

This is the lesson Barrett learned from participating in the First World War. At that time, he worked with the French army. Although he experienced the cruel Verdun meat grinder, the standard French military salute is a posture with hands facing the sky. Barrett It's just too much to see.

I don't have any hope for these Western troops. The casualty rate exceeds 10%, and it can even be said to be elite.

So looking at the group of sailors in front of him, Barrett could only find another way to deal with the group of monsters under the sea.

Thinking about it in my heart, going to Barrett can only use the Book of Sothos in my arms, and I need to set a large enough trap at the place where the group of monsters landed, and the power of that trap can last for a week.

After all, in the world of mysticism, time and celestial phenomena are very important, if you miss a time, or miss the direction of a certain star.

It may take hundreds of years to find that time again, so Barrett and the others' goal has never been to defeat the enemy, they only need to delay it for a long enough time.

Perhaps that group of monsters thought the same in their hearts, they were quietly waiting for the arrival of the last time, and the reason why they didn't go ashore to attack was probably because it was unnecessary now.

But if Barrett wants to solve or create a large enough trap, the price he needs is enough sacrifices.

The problem was that it was impossible for Barrett to kill enough humans as sacrifices, nor did he have enough monsters for him to use.

This put Barrett's actions and plans into a dead end.

Edward and Gloria next to him looked at Barrett, leaning on the chair next to him with blank eyes, as if they were deep in thought.

Edward walked to Barrett's side and said, "Didn't Mr. Barrett think of any solution?"

At this time, Barrett regained the clarity in his eyes, looked at Edward in front of him and said, "I have thought of a solution, but the problem is that there are no conditions for using this solution."

"Then Mr. Barrett, can you talk to us properly?" Gloria also sat next to Barrett at this time, looking at the man in front of her.

Looking at the gazes of Edward, Gloria, and other people in the bar, Barrett silently took out the Book of Sothos from his arms and placed it on the table in front of him.

At the same time, let's talk about what happened in the villa and the greatness of Ms. Grant, especially what is the purpose of that group of monsters?
When the sailors present heard that the monster's purpose was to kill all the humans on the entire Blackwater Island, everyone clenched their fists tightly, knowing that there was no surrender at all. necessary.

They are also not qualified to live after surrendering, and can only turn their guns on their fellow human beings when they surrender.

At the same time, I also heard that Barrett can set up a huge magic circle on the coast to stop those enemies, and the time may only be 7 days to stop them.

The eyes of the sailors present all lit up with hope, but they heard that Barrett did not cast a spell.

The light of hope in everyone's eyes dimmed instantly.

However, at this time, the old captain Fitzroy looked at Barrett and said: "Mr. Barrett, do the sacrifices you mentioned must be humans or monsters, or can other things be used, such as Say fish."

On Heishui Island, although the fish catch has decreased a lot compared to previous years, that just means that fewer fish are sold, and it doesn't mean that they can't catch enough to feed themselves.

Even a lot of fish can be left for storage every day.

Looking at the old captain in front of him, in fact, Barrett also thought of using non-intelligent creatures as sacrifices. Barrett kept flipping through the book of Sothos in front of him, trying to find out if non-intelligent creatures could be used as sacrifices. Creatures are used as sacrifices.

But after turning over and over, there is no answer.

However, at this time, a violent explosion was suddenly heard in the distance, and those monsters began to land.

　I looked at the outline and found that if I write eight chapters a day, I can’t stand it. After all, it’s close to the end of the story, and it’s a bit difficult to add Cthulhu, so I can only write six chapters a day. Excuse me.
