A common tavern that connects all fantasy worlds

Not long after, a puddle of blood rose up in the seawater illuminated by the flashlights of several people.

Before a few mercenaries could react properly, dozens of tentacles had risen from the surrounding sea water, opening their bloody mouths under the lights in their hands.

The mercenaries who had just used up all the bullets to kill a sunfish could only throw down the light machine guns in their hands and switch to other firearms they carried, but then the flashlights were also thrown away... In the darkness, only There were several gunshots, and the screams of the mercenaries one after another.

Jack and Finnegan have also reached the top floor.

For a cruise ship that spends most of its time at sea, a swimming pool might seem like a bit of a redundancy... but it's a design that's found on almost every cruise ship, regardless of size.

In such a stormy weather, of course no one will come to the swimming pool.The parasols around the swimming pool have been blown to one side or another by the wind, but because they were fixed on the deck, they were not blown into the sea.

Watching Jack run straight towards a parasol, Cui Lin who followed behind asked curiously, "What are you going to do?"

"...Of course it is to survive."

Jack said.

After coming to this strange world, he stopped thinking about what he had and what he didn't have, but he found that what he wanted was much clearer.

The Black Pearl, the fastest ship in the Caribbean.does he want itWanted, but not the most wanted... He wanted a fast boat, just so that no one could catch up with him or know where he was.The Black Pearl is a means, a tool, not an end in itself.

Treasure, whether he or Barbossa took it or found it at sea.He wants the same thing, but it's also not what he wants the most... Of course, the days when he has money are good, but when he was the happiest, he didn't have any money on him.

Revenge on Lord Beckett?That's not bad either, that guy is a purebred bastard and deserves to be punished.But it would be too sad to tie the meaning of one's life to someone like him.

Elizabeth... ah, she was a beautiful and special girl, with a very unique and rare attraction in that world.But on the one hand, she and Turner may be more suitable; on the other hand, he is destined not to stay for anyone.

These are not the things he wants most.

Before that world was locked on the Black Pearl and attacked by the Kraken, when he saw another monster in this world and his life was threatened, all he thought of was the blue sea.

"I want to live, go back and steer my boat, and sail to the unknown horizon... I want to go where no one has ever stepped, and I want to see the sea that no one has seen."

Jack muttered to himself, reaching out and cutting a large piece of tarpaulin from the parasol.

Finnegan had seen what he was going to do, and came to help him tear off the canopy, remove the umbrella pole and set it aside.

Several people quickly disassembled more than a dozen parasols, and under Jack's command, they used ropes and tapes picked up on the road to assemble three huge cross-shaped hang gliders.As a pirate several centuries ago, of course he doesn't know much about aerodynamics, and the thing he made is more like a big kite, but as long as this thing is big enough, it should really be able to slow down the falling speed.

"You're a fucking genius, Jack!" Finnegan praised.

Jack raised his eyebrows: "I know. When we jump out from there in a while, don't let go... Even if your arm is about to be pulled out of its joint, don't let go!"

Cui Lin also understood at this time, and couldn't help but said with a wry smile: "Then you should help me tie my hands on it... I really don't have that much strength."

"This is impossible, you little thief, if you want to survive, how can you not pay a price? I knew that the decision made by those stupid soldiers could be right... The real smart people on board are all here .”

Suddenly another person's voice sounded from the side, and several people looked up, and saw the captain Simon, who had just run away out of nowhere, pointing a gun in his hand.

Just now, in order to make these kites quickly, a few people had already put all the weapons in their hands aside. Just as Finnegan was about to pick them up, he was shot by Simon, and he raised his hands helplessly.

"You're good at hiding, Simon. But what are you going to do now? There are plenty of parasols, and we don't mind taking you with them."

Cui Lin spoke, but was immediately kicked by Finnegan.

She turned her head, only to hear the man say helplessly: "Haven't you figured it out yet? The radio system on the cruise ship is not so easy to be destroyed, and those mercenaries don't have the possibility to just know that the ship will stop suddenly." Where on the sea...he listened to the ship, and he found the pirates."

"...You talk too much, you guys... just follow this ship and be buried on the bottom of the sea."

Simon said bitterly, and raised his gun again.

But at this moment Jack raised his hand again, smiled shyly, and asked the "owner": "Why do you want to destroy your own ship? You must be a rich man to build such a big ship..."

"All my money was used to build this ship... Now every time it goes out to sea, I have to lose several million more." Simon seemed to think of something, and the expression on his face suddenly became grim: "Soon That's the bank's ship...I'd rather have it sink for an insurance payout than fall into the hands of some number-crunching scum!"

Jack shook his head, unable to say anything more about it; the man was so obsessed with one thing that he was completely insane.

but……

"Do you... want to look back?"

Chapter 47 Life and Death Crisis

As soon as Jack said this, Simon on the opposite side changed his face.

The expressions of the three people here frightened him even more... The three of them stared straight behind him, their eyes widened and their mouths closed tightly. When they looked at him, they even felt a little pity, and there was a hint of gloating.

"...you...you are lying to me, aren't you? Tell me you are lying to me."

Simon's mouth was trembling so hard that he couldn't listen to him. He was trembling all over, and the gun in his hand was shaking, making people really worried that he might go off if he was not careful.

But soon, when the tentacle climbed up from behind him and opened its mouthparts towards him, the stench appeared beside him along with the dripping mucus...he had to turn back if he didn't want to.

The man glanced back slightly, screamed like an elementary school girl who found a dead centipede in her schoolbag, shot two bang bangs in the back, and rushed forward to grab a "glide" that Jack and the others had made. Wings" and boldly jumped overboard.

He still dared to risk his life at the critical moment, but unfortunately, he was not able to control the kite in his hand in the strong wind...

The three of Jack standing by the pool only heard a shout of "Ah—" and the kite in Simon's hand flipped over and spun a few times in the wind, hitting it around the hull like a leaf. After a few turns, it drifted to nowhere.

As soon as he put all his weight on the kite, Simon didn't grab the umbrella pole that formed the skeleton and let go of his hand; he lost his balance and fell straight down, hitting the side of the cruise ship with a snap, knocking out There was a bloodstain, and then rolled and fell into the sea again.

"...Hey... You really planned to tell us to jump down like this just now, right?" Finnegan said with a dark face.

Jack nodded: "Yeah... We shouldn't be unable to catch the kite... Speaking of which, do you think he loves the boat he built himself?"

"Now is not the time to discuss this!"

While talking, countless giant tentacles have already climbed up from the side of the ship.This thing is obviously not like a squid or an octopus... This kind of creature will not have so many tentacles, and of course there will be no mouths on the tentacles.

It has obvious amphibian characteristics, such as moist skin covered with mucus all the time, etc., but it is not like an amphibian, because it does not have feet for walking.When it moves, it clings its entire body to a certain plane, uses densely packed tentacles as arms and legs, and wriggles its body to crawl forward.

With the size of this thing, this movement is extremely disgusting... Like a hill of carrion, it gradually climbed up to the top of the ship.The cruise ship, which was originally relatively stable, was overturned to one side by its weight, and the metal that made up the hull was also deformed one after another, making a creaking noise under the huge force.The top floor of the cruise ship turned into a slope, and the water in the swimming pool gushed out, almost rushing the stunned living people directly into the range of motion of the tentacles.

Jack, Finnegan, and Cui Lin uttered a common swear word at the same time, quickly picked up the gun that was thrown on the ground, and ran back around the swimming pool.

At the same time, on the side of the cruise ship, on the speedboat that drove a little further away, Joey and Laila were also staring at the cruise ship with dumbfounded expressions, expressing the same emotion.

"WTF?!"

From their perspective, they could clearly see the body of the big guy, a green-brown meat head with a diameter of 30 meters, with uneven skin covered with mucus, sticking to the side of the cruise ship like a pile of mud.

Lila, who had just put a bandage on her left eye, checked the power and shouted to her boyfriend, "That torpedo, should we use it?"

"... No, Finnegan hasn't come down yet, if we launch the torpedo now, he will be killed too!"

Joey shook his head. Although the torpedo of this equivalent can blow up the ship and the monster together, there is no need to think about anything breathing on the ship.Although Finnegan is stingy, boring, lazy, and occasionally needs a beating, he is a good captain... It is too worthless to die here.

"Do you think it's possible for him to escape in this situation! Maybe he's already dead!"

Lyra pointed that way and called again.

"No...can't confirm yet. Give me the binoculars!" Joey said, took the binoculars from his girlfriend, and looked towards the top of the cruise ship.

The reason why that thing is climbing to the top should be because there are still people alive on the top, right?

At this time, the cruise ship was already tilted a little bit, and the top deck was hit by wind and rain again. Jack and the others slipped on their feet, so they could only land on all fours, struggling to avoid the pursuit of the tentacles.

Finnegan grabbed an unknown handle protruding from the ground, and shouted, "Where's that weapon? Can it still be used?"

Jack yelled back, "There's one last shot, but I can't shoot right now!"

Finnegan turned his head and saw that Captain Jack Sparrow was holding a rope with both hands, kicking his feet on the ground with great effort, and he really had no extra hands to shoot.

Cui Lin on the side couldn't listen anymore, and shouted: "Then I'll come!"

He jumped up and rushed over to hug Jack's waist.The captain let out a muffled grunt, and said in pain, "Ma'am! Can't you move lightly?"

"Come on, you should be glad that I lost weight recently... Why is a big man so thin!" Cui Lin sneered back relentlessly, reached out and pulled out the gun, and asked, "What the hell is wrong with this thing? Yes, can you tell me?"

"...Turn down the magnetic track switch first, which is the round button on the handle, wait until the red light is on, then aim at the target and pull the trigger!"

Cui Lin did as Jack said.

The monster had already climbed up, and the top deck on that side was collapsing under its pressure, making it even more difficult for several people to stand firmly.Jack gritted his teeth, desperately wrapped the cable around his arm several times, and supported the weight of the two people with all his strength; Cui Lin was completely hanging behind his back, hooking him only with his left hand and left foot. body, turned back and stretched out his right hand, took that strange gun and pointed it at the huge monster emerging from its head.

There should be its head, right?You can see those eyes that are bigger than the banquet table...

Without saying a word, the female snitch pointed at that side and pulled the trigger.

A dazzling stream of light streaked across the air, even on a speedboat hundreds of meters away, separated by wind and rain, it was still clearly visible.The head on one side of the monster began to disintegrate and ablate rapidly, causing it to let out a violent roar of pain. The whole body and all the tentacles twitched. The huge body fell backwards and fell from the top of the ship with a gust of wind. smashed into the sea.

The cruise ship swayed violently and regained its balance. Finally, Jack and the others no longer had to exert all their strength to hold on to the fixed object, and collapsed down without strength.

Only Cui Lin, who had just fired a shot, still had some strength. She got up and took a closer look at the strange weapon in her hand.

The luminous substance in the transparent tube at the back was completely gone, and it could be seen that it was indeed the last shot.

"...Is this thing so useful?" Finnegan didn't expect such a big monster to be shot down by this shot, and asked curiously.

When Cui Lin was in the boat just now, she had already followed behind Jack and had seen the power of this gun fired. At this time, she explained to Finnegan in detail: the range of influence of this gun seems to be a sphere, and when it hits the target After that, any matter within two meters around will be melted, disappear and release a lot of heat.When shooting in the boat before, even the sea water would be evaporated in an instant... It's just that the number of firings of this thing is too small, and it even needs to be warmed up in advance.

"...It is already convenient. According to Boss Xue, the previous generation of this thing still needed to carry a generating device of tens of kilograms with it. It was not until recently that a method of short-term storage of 'positron ammunition' was developed."

Jack turned over and sat up, took the gun from Cui Lin, and said helplessly.

"By the way, Joey and Laila should be fine... Oh, I saw the lights of the speedboat."

Finnegan, who finally relaxed, stood up and looked around, and finally found his speedboat on the sea in the distance. The searchlights on the deck were still flashing this way.

But soon he realized that the flickering of the light was not completely irregular, but a signal cycle like one long and two short and long dark, and one long and two short and long dark.

Translated with the Morse code rule, it is a series of letters: "DDDD..."

"What is D?"

Finnegan scratched his head, and was about to find something useful around to send back the signal, when he suddenly felt the ship shake again.

In the swimming pool in the middle of the upper deck, a whirlpool gradually appeared.The vortex became bigger and bigger, and soon the entire water surface in the pool was stirred up, and the water in the pool quickly leaked out.

Just as Jack and the others were about to go up to look at it, the water surface splashed a large area around with a "bang... splash", and a tentacle appeared from the bottom of the pool, and suddenly entangled Cui Lin, who was closest to the pool.

"Help! Help!"

As soon as Cui Lin realized it, she was caught in the air, no matter how hard she beat her, it would be of no avail.When the ship tilted just now, the other firearms fell to nowhere, and now Jack and Finnegan have nothing to do...

The monster's disgustingly large head also emerges from the pool.Half of its head has disappeared, and the wound is surrounded by scorched and smoking pieces of meat, but this guy's vitality is really tenacious, he still managed to climb up, penetrated the bottom of the swimming pool, countless tentacles fell from the bottom of the pool Holes gushed out onto the upper deck.

From this point of view, it is more like a mollusk that can squeeze into a small space...

Jack and Finnegan hurriedly picked up all the moving objects around them and threw them at the monster, but they couldn't stop its movement at all.Cui Lin's head was almost dizzy from being thrown, and she almost completely lost the ability to resist, and she was about to face her doomed death.

Suddenly, several people heard a loud gunshot from their ears.

I don't know what kind of gun precisely hit the tentacle that was entangled with Cui Lin, and penetrated it completely, causing it to loosen suddenly, throwing Cui Lin onto the deck.

Jack rushed up to help the dizzy female snitch, only to hear a series of gunshots behind him, mixed with Luo Sanpao's excited roar: "Damn it, this gun is called a fucking gun!" Enough!"

Chapter 48 Reality Myths

Luo Sanpao was kneeling on the ground at this moment, using the so-called "standard rifle shooting posture" learned from Ma Rulong, holding a storm pulse rifle, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, continuously pulling the trigger at the monster, almost firing The limit rate of fire of this gun.

Also kneeling next to him was Ma Rulong. This marine policeman's fighting style was completely different from Luo Sanpao's. The gray firearm is specially looking for the big smelly head that is occasionally exposed when the monster's tentacles are waving to shoot.

The two suppressed the monster for a while, and Boss Xue, who didn't hold a weapon in his hand, rushed over to pull Jack up, and shouted in his ear, "Let's go, that guy can't be killed!"

Finnegan also quickly set up Cui Lin, followed Boss Xue, and stepped into the warm darkness through the door on the side of the deck.

After the few of them sat on the chairs panting in the tavern, Boss Xue went back again... This time, he dragged back the two guys who hadn't beaten enough.

As soon as Luo Sanpao entered the door, he threw the rifle on the table and shook his head: "No, although it is a good gun, it can't deal with such a big guy at all."

[78. No. 78]

Xue Li nodded, he knew that big guy when he saw it... Not only is it difficult to deal with, but if you change the old bald head's favorite M1911, I'm afraid you can't break the guy's defense.

He turned his head and asked Jack again: "...how about the gun designed by Duran Duran?"

"It sucks." Jack replied, "It's too powerful for one person or a team, it's completely unnecessary... If it's what you call a 'tactical weapon', it's better to put it on a car or a boat, don't even think about it It’s not portable anymore, let’s increase the firepower. Just now I shot that guy several times, broke a few tentacles, and half-baked his head, but I still couldn’t kill it.”

"Okay, I'll tell him... I don't know why he designed this kind of thing in the era of spaceships and BVR strikes." Xue Li shrugged.

Now a few people have to face a more realistic problem: even the "Positronic Death Ray Gun" can't cure that guy, what else can be done?

In particular, Finnegan is still urging: "My crew is still on the speedboat, I have to go back and get them out."

Cui Lin, who was at a loss, didn't say anything for the time being, she didn't know why she suddenly came to this place...the bar on the ship?No, she was sure she had never seen this place during the entire voyage.

She didn't understand what a few people said at all, what kind of spaceship, what kind of trans-horizon, it sounds like it's very powerful...

So she decided not to speak, and then observe the situation.

Xue Li scratched his head, but couldn't think of a good way for the time being.However, Finnegan's request can be fulfilled first. He said to the speedboat captain: "You can open the door to any place in your world, and you can also bring the people you want to bring here... …Because you are the chosen guest of this tavern. Of course, you need to know every place you go.”

Speaking of which, Ning Caichen, the stupid and cute scholar, was the first to discover that the tavern could provide such convenience.

When he took Nie Xiaoqian's body home for burial, held another ceremony, and wanted to study again, he heard the news from the court: The emperor has ordered that Enke be added this year.
