That's a fake elf

Kuroshio Island

In a dilapidated tavern, pirates and sailors were chatting and kicking.

"Hey, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

"Is the Queen Anne's Revenge, the legendary ship that once conquered the Overlook Sea, coming back again?"

"How is it possible? That legendary battleship disappeared together with the pirate king Tiqi Miku for nearly 20 years. Otherwise, how could Drake become the pirate queen?"

"Hey, be careful what you say! Don't forget where this is?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and then they remembered that Kuroshio Island was the territory of Kuroshio Earl Couch Netherlands.

And he is the loyal eagle dog of the pirate queen Drake.

In his territory, gossiping about Drake, isn't that asking for death?

As expected, the [Royal Pirates] soon approached these well-informed guys and invited them to drink fish soup in the Black Prison.

"Queen, why don't we set off?" Couch, disguised as an ordinary pirate, carefully sat next to his queen and asked:

"The news has reached us. I believe there will be big moves from the sea elves soon."

"When I left Yuechao Island, I guessed that there would be such a result, so I mobilized the Sunset Fleet to retreat from the battlefield on Jinchao Island and come here for the round."

Drake, who was wearing a black captain's uniform and captain's hat, exuded a dazzling temperament, and soon attracted two half-elf maids with sea elf blood. She said with a sarcastic smile on her face. :

"Tell our spies in the Sea Elf Armada to report their downstream route at any time, so that I can open the sea vortex and harvest at any time."

"This time, I will establish Sunset Fleet's dominance in the world."

"Queen, I'll go down and make arrangements right away." Kuchi exited the tavern with a look of joy on his face.

"Edward, and my princess! Let me see how much surprise you can bring me!"

Drake hugged two panting tavern maids and entered an inner room under the eyes of a group of pirates eager to get involved.

. . . . . . .

The moon was in the sky, and the salty sea breeze blew the sails of the black battleship.

At this time, most of the people on the boat were exhausted and had fallen asleep. Even Aisha on the observation deck began to doze off.

Only three of them stayed up all night.

"Aren't you going to rest?"

Li Ang walked to Gao Lan who was sitting on the edge of the boat and asked in a low voice:

"You must be very tired, after all, you have been fighting pirates and Kraken."

"Can't sleep." Gao Lan stared blankly at the waveless sea in Gujing, with a trace of heart-wrenching loneliness on his face.

"Are you worried about Weiyang and the others?" Li Ang asked softly.

"Well, they are now cursed by Poseidon and have become like this. I am worried that Poseidon will directly destroy their souls if they help us catch the mermaids this time."

Gao Lan clenched his fist tightly, blood dripping into the sea.

"If you are worried about this, I can save them now. I still have this ability, so they don't have to be coerced."

Li Ang held Gao Lan's palm and used the [Prayer] magic.

A ball of holy light enveloped her body, quickly stabilizing her emotions.

"Forget it, you should know Weiyang's temperament very well if you have been in contact with her. She is a more stubborn person than me."

Feeling the power of [Prayer] magic, Gao Lan's eyes lit up, but then he shook his head and said with a wry smile: "He is the daughter of General Qiaoqi, and has been instilled in him the concept of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism since he was a child."

"In her heart, honor and mission are more important than life and soul."

"If she chooses to be saved by you, I'm afraid she will no longer be her."

"It's very dangerous for her to be following us like this. Poseidon hasn't taken action now just because he hasn't found a suitable medium." Li Ang said:

"If they encounter pirates or priests who believe in Poseidon, they are likely to lose their minds."

As a former priest, Li Ang is still very aware of the limitations of gods.

They may have powerful divine power, but if they no longer belong to this world, if they want to influence the world through divine power.

Then a statue of the god must be built, or someone is willing to sacrifice his body and soul to become a container for his consciousness to come.

"I understand your idea."

Gao Lan smiled bitterly and said: "But they have just returned to me. It is impossible for me to drive them away. This will deeply hurt her."

"Is there any way you can avoid the curse while still allowing them to follow me?"

"Yes, yes, but we have to see if they are willing to sacrifice." Li Ang pondered for a while, raised his head and said to Gao Lan:

"There is a goddess in the Druid pantheon who has a lot of hatred for the sea god. If sea spirits like Weiyang and others are willing to become believers of that goddess, she should be happy to protect her."

"This..." Gao Lan was a little hesitant.

"What's wrong? Is there any difficulty?" Li Ang looked at Gao Lan curiously and asked.

"There are some. Although the culture of Gaotang Kingdom is very different from that of Enros continent, it is also protected by gods." Gao Lan sighed and said:

"We mainly believe in nine gods, namely Donghuang Taiyi, Yunzhongjun, Dongjun, Da Siming, Shaosiming, Xiangjun, Xiangfu, Hebo and Shangui."

"Except for the mountain ghosts, which are born from the offerings of some miraculous creatures or the souls of the war dead, the others are gods and earth creatures."

"Wei Yang and I both believe in Shao Siming, because Shao Siming is the protector of women, children, and young children. At the same time, her sister Da Siming is also the god of the underworld in charge of lifespan and reincarnation."

"Changing our faith will make it impossible for us to become Gaotang people. With Weiyang's arrogant temperament, I'm afraid it will be difficult to accept it."

"Nine Songs?" Hearing the names of these nine gods, Li Ang inexplicably remembered the "Nine Songs" in the legend of Chu in his previous life.

It is these nine gods that are praised in this poem.

Are the people of Gaotang not the original inhabitants of this world?

"How do you know Jiuge?" Gao Lan turned his head, looking surprised.

"Um, have you forgotten that I am the Son of God? This is what Goddess Asha told me."

Li Ang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and smiled awkwardly, but he made up his mind that whenever he had the chance, he must ask the goddess how many gods from other worlds there were in this world.

"Son of God..." Looking at Li Ang's face, Gao Lan hesitated.

"Just say what you want. You don't have to hide it from me. As long as I can do it, I will try my best to do it." Li Ang said with a smile.

"Although I'm sorry, you must have communicated with the gods that time on Moon Peak, right?" What Gao Lan said left Li Ang stunned.

"How did you know?"

"Remember what I told you? I have the characteristic of [reincarnation of gods]. This characteristic is not actually achieved through blood inheritance, but the real reincarnation of gods or earthly beings."

Gao Lan pointed to the lotus mark on his forehead and said:

"Although I don't know which god I am the reincarnation of, I can occasionally feel her presence."

"Because of this, when Moon Peak was knocked unconscious by divine power, I felt the majestic divine power of life."

"Then the divine power I sensed on the statue of the Fountain of Eternal Life was exactly the same as the one on the Moon Peak."

"Reincarnation of the gods?" Li Ang grabbed Gao Lan's hand and said in a panic:

"Could it be that if you become someone else one day, what will happen to you now?"

"Don't worry, she is her, and I am me. If I don't die, she won't be able to awaken."

Seeing Li Ang's anxious look, Gao Lan's eyes flashed with a trace of imperceptible joy. He withdrew his palm with a red face and said softly:

"If I can break through the limitations of heaven and humans and reach level 100 before my lifespan is almost over, I can inherit her divine power and status and become a new god."

"I am less than 25 years old now, and I have already reached level 72. I am known as the person most likely to become the God of Protection of the Country in Gaotang Kingdom for thousands of years, so you don't have to worry about this."

"Huh, that's good, that's good." Li Ang slowly exhaled and said with a smile:

"Since you have told me the truth, I won't hide it anymore."

"I can indeed communicate with Goddess Asha, but it's hard to say whether she will help me unconditionally."

"If it doesn't work, forget it. You don't have to force it." Hearing this, Gao Lan showed a trace of disappointment on his face.

"I don't mean not to help, but the last time I communicated with the goddess, I relied on the divine power in the [Sea Holy Grail]." Li Ang took out the [Seed of Life] from the system space and said with a wry smile:

"Now that the divinity in the [Sea Holy Grail] has been almost drained, it can no longer be used as a medium for her to exert her power."

"If you want to let Goddess Asha exert her divine power, there are only two ways."

"Either find a new artifact with the divinity of life, or plant the seed of life on a piece of dragon vein and use the spring of life to quickly grow it into an adult [Tree of Life]."

"We have the Fountain of Life, but the key dragon veins are generally found only in places rich in resources."

"Thank you, Li Ang." Gao Lan's eyes were watery, with a hint of warmth.

"Well, didn't we make a promise? Even if it's hell, we will brave it together." Li Ang unconsciously held Gao Lan's little hand and smiled.

This time, Gao Lan did not dodge, but blushed and lowered his head, seemingly acquiescing to the relationship between the two.
