The Sea Burial Island, which had been silent for many years, was unusually lively today.
The battle with the invaders was very short, starting and ending quickly, and many corpses did not have time to show up.
Corpses came from all over the Sea Burial Island. Some of them came from the fishing village, some from the cemetery outside the city, some from the basement, and some from the battlefield.
All the corpses were arranged in squares according to their levels, which was convenient for Cooper to sort out.
Standing in the front were 4 level 5 apostles, followed by more than 30 level 4 apostles, and then more than 300 level 3 apostles. As for level 2 and level 1 apostles, there were about 2,000 of them. The collection accumulated by the level 5 zombie Green Skull for a lifetime was all cheap for Cooper.
Some of these corpses were well maintained, just like before death, while some were poorly maintained and rotten. Most of the rotten corpses were low-level corpses and were not taken seriously. The corpses of level 5 and level 4 apostles looked like living people. There was a lot of dust on the clothes they wore, but the fabrics were all good.
Any corpse that has been parasitized by a Level 5 zombie will completely turn into bones. Rudolph went to look for the little red-haired girl, but unfortunately she had turned into a small skeleton and could not move.
"This Sea Burial Island is so big, why are there only four Level 5 apostles?" Cooper was greedy and thought that there were not enough Level 5 apostles.
"You think it's not enough?" Looking at the black mass of apostles' corpses, Rudolf felt terrified. He didn't know how long it took the zombies to collect so many corpses. He said:
"Level 5 apostles are not cabbages in the field. There are few of them. 4 corpses of level 5 apostles, this has far exceeded my expectations. In any force, level 5 apostles are absolutely high-level. A level 5 knight is qualified to be an earl, a level 5 alchemist is at least the vice president of the provincial council, and a level 5 priest can be in charge of a parish. Do you think level 5 apostles are powerful? How can there be so many of them?"
Cooper had a different opinion on this: "It's easy to get promoted to level 5. You get knocked out by a level 5 zombie, and then you close your eyes and open them. Isn't that a promotion? What's the difficulty?"
"Oh, shit, nothing to say." Comparison is the thief of joy.
Rudolf is still working hard to become a level 5 wizard, but Cooper is talking nonsense here. His promotion makes people jealous.
"You were too heavy-handed just now. Many corpses were damaged, especially my Level 5 Titan corpse. The newly installed arm is so inconsistent. I have to modify it." The
Level 5 Titan had one arm blown off by Rudolph. Later, a zombie corpse sewed a new arm for the Titan. The new arm was very thin and inconsistent with the giant's burly figure, just like a toy arm.
Cooper picked and chose among the corpses and finally found a thick arm: "That's it, you have a good physique."
The corpse next to him waved a scimitar and cut off the arm of the burly corpse. Cooper took the arm and sewed the new arm on the Level 5 Titan corpse.
This is the way zombies repair and collect. They are all corpses, regardless of you or me, and anyone's arm can be used.
In addition to the Level 5 Titan, there are also Level 5 Difficult Priests, Level 5 Alchemists, and Level 5 Pain Priests.
These corpses have red faces and lively eyes, and they don't look like dead people at all.
The Level 5 Alchemist did not appear in the battle. He just came from the port. Green Skull was also a big pirate before. The Level 5 Alchemist corpse was Green Skull's pirate captain. When the battle ended, he had just driven a big ship to the port. Before he joined the battle, Rudolf on land had already finished the battle.
Rudolf stood in front of two Level 5 priests: "Come, let me hear you curse the evil god. How do you curse your master?"
The Level 5 Priest of Trouble rolled his eyes at Rudolf and turned his head away from him.
"I don't believe you won't get it if you don't curse. You're all dead. Be brave."
The Level 5 Priest of Pain was a middle-aged man with a bad temper before his death. He shouted and yelled that he wanted to fight Rudolf to the death, but he was restrained by Cooper and could not decide his own actions.
The behavior of the painful priests scared Rudolf: "Do these corpses have such personalities? Even anger is so realistic?"
"Rudolf, I can't let the evil priests betray the evil god. They still have to be pious to the evil god after death, otherwise they can't use divine arts." Cooper waved his hand, and the painful priests calmed down: "If I open their restrictions and don't give orders, they will act according to instinct."
This surprised Rudolf. He didn't expect that these priests would still maintain their faith after becoming corpses.
Cooper was wearing the cloak of the previous level 5 zombie. This cloak can completely cover the breath of the zombies and also cover Cooper's current skeleton form.
He was busy operating the sewing thread, and the arm exposed from the sleeves looked completely like a skeleton. On the road to pursuing power, the price is huge. Cooper has lost his flesh and blood, and only a skeleton is left.
Seeing Rudolph studying the cloak, Cooper said, "This cloak is not a magic weapon. It is an ordinary cloak with the encoffining technique attached, a level 5 zombie spell that can conceal the breath and make it impossible for people to detect the situation inside. It disguises the corpse as a living person to attack others. This is one of the zombies' methods."
« "Encoffining technique?" Rudolph was very interested: "I want one too, so I won't be afraid of being discovered by others."
"Okay, I'll make one for you later. This one was pierced by your finger fire, so it's just right to repair it together later."
In addition to these corpses, Cooper also found the residence of the level 5 zombie. This zombie lives in a dark windowless bunker, like a huge slate coffin.
There are few things in the bunker, only a wooden bed and a desk.
Level 5 zombies have no flesh and blood, do not need food, do not need alcohol, do not feel uncomfortable without a mattress, and will not feel cold or hot. Maybe he is like the corpses outside, constantly falling into sleep.
Level 5 zombies are immortal, which means that it is difficult to kill them in battle, not immortal. Zombies will also age and die naturally. Judging from the layout of this bunker, the life of a level 5 zombie is boring and cold, just like an old man.
The desk is where the zombie writes his diary. Without a brain, the zombie's thinking becomes dull and his memory gradually blurs, so he writes down all the things in the past in thick notebooks.
There are very few records in the past few years, and he only wakes up once a week or so.
No wonder after Rudolph and Cooper entered the Sea Burial Island, the zombie arranged a drama and played with Rudolph and Cooper for a long time. It should be because he was too bored.
Rudolph flipped through his diary, especially the diary when he was young. Level 5 zombies are called Green Skulls. At their peak, they were the 8th largest pirates on the Saragu Sea.
At most, the Green Skull's fleet had 5 large ships, and the flagship was also called the Green Skull. It once made a feat of single-handedly fighting the Elbashi Sea Fleet, and the Elbashi Sea Fleet won a tragic victory. The Level 5 Alchemist corpse was the deputy commander of the Elbashi Sea Fleet. The
Level 5 Trapped Priest was the Pantheon who announced the hunt for the Green Skull. The navies of multiple churches destroyed the rebuilt Green Skull fleet. Because the Pantheon could not kill the Green Skull, they had to let the Trapped Church guard the Green Skull. No matter where the Green Skull hid a corpse, he could be resurrected after killing the Green Skull.
When guarding the Green Skull, what is more difficult than preventing him from escaping is preventing him from committing suicide. As long as the Green Skull commits suicide, all arrangements will be useless. This Burial Island was originally used to imprison Green Skull, but later Green Skull killed the Level 5 Trouble Priest and forced the Pantheon to negotiate. The final result was that Green Skull retired and the Pantheon no longer hunted Green Skull.
When Green Skull was young, he was simply a bully on the ancient sea. He relied on his immortality to catch anyone and hammer anyone. No one would obey him. Whether it was the kingdoms in the north or the Pantheon in the south, they were all tormented by him.
Unfortunately, he was imprisoned for more than ten years. Even if he wiped out the Trouble Priest who was guarding him, he was too old and had no spirit. He no longer made trouble and only acted as a director on this Burial Island to pass the time.
"Cooper, study the contents of Green Skull's diary carefully. It will be very useful to you."
Unlike the dullness of his residence, there is Green Skull's warehouse next to it, which is full of treasures and gold shields.
Green Skull is really rich. He actually has 600,000 gold shields of the Pantheon, which is only slightly less than Rudolph. He was really pitiful. Even though he was dead, he still had so much money. Rudolph and Cooper had to take half of it each to complete his unfinished business. Cooper was now considered a rich man and no longer had to worry about money.
After dealing with the corpses and property, the two came to the seaside.
The Green Skull, the flagship of the Level 5 zombies when they were rampant in the Saragu Sea, was parked in a bay of the Sea Burial Island as the zombies became silent. It had not been out to sea for a long time.
The ship was very large, with a flag of a green skull on a black background.
The ship was also very old. It was actually a sailing paddle boat. There was no steam turbine, and the power came from the tireless paddling of the corpses. Half of the long paddles were rotten, and the ship needed a major overhaul to return to its peak condition.
There was thick dust everywhere on the ship, and I don't know how long it had been sealed in the dust. The railings, masts, decorations, etc. on the ship were all products of the last century, and the heavy sense of history was revealed everywhere.
The Green Skull is equipped with 40 cannons. These cannons are very old and very crude. Unlike the current cannons, the barrel wall is much thinner after the material technology has been improved.
The alchemical reinforcement array of this ship is level 5, and its defense capability is stronger than that of the Bauhinia. When they return to the Bauhinia, Rudolph plans to let the level 5 alchemist draw a level 5 reinforcement array for the Bauhinia.
After plundering the collection of level 5 zombies, Rudolph and Cooper held a grand funeral for the corpses.
Level 5 apostles, level 4 apostles, and level 3 apostles are still useful to Cooper now. Those level 1 and level 2 apostles, as many as more than 2,000, are not very useful except for rebirth. The poor have suddenly become rich, and Cooper looks down on the bodies of level 1 and level 2 apostles. Cooper will send
more than 2,000 level 1 and level 2 apostles to the depths of the sea according to the custom of sea burial here, and hold a real sea burial for them.
The corpses cut down all the trees on the sea burial island, dismantled the floors and door panels of all the houses, and spent two full days to finally make more than 2,000 simple boats for sea burial. These boats do not need to be very strong, they will sink in the sea sooner or later.
The temperature at the seaside dropped at night, and the sea burial boats were crowded together, making the harbor like land. One by one, the corpses walked towards the farthest boat, starting from the farthest end, and lay down in the boats one by one.
Rudolph stood on the shore, watching these corpses bury themselves at sea, and felt a little emotional. In this terrible alien world, sometimes if you don't want to be a bad person, you have to be a dead person. This is an unsolvable problem.
After the corpses were lying down, the druid corpse untied the vines between the boats, and the gentle sea breeze carried more than 2,000 sea burial boats to the sea.
Rudolph and Cooper stood on the dock and watched these corpses leave. They will be truly buried in the depths of the sea. Return organic matter to nature, nourish the creatures in the ocean, and completely become part of the ocean.
"Let's go, let's leave here."
The Burial Island has become history, and it will become a completely abandoned island.
The Green Skull set sail, and after going out for more than ten nautical miles, the bodies of the Pisces wizards who created undercurrents around the Burial Island emerged from the sea one by one. It was the undercurrents created by these wizards that caused Rudolph and Cooper to drift into the waters of the Burial Island.
These Pisces wizards, no matter how high their level is, cannot be lost, and they play a great role at sea. If they encounter danger, these Pisces wizards can jump into the sea, or just follow the bottom of the ship, so that Cooper also has a backup for resurrection on the seabed.
Cooper heard from Rudolph that he should be careful of the Aries wizard. The Aries wizard is the only nemesis of the green ghost fire, and you must escape when you encounter the Aries wizard.
In the bridge of the Green Skull, there is an old sea chart hanging, and Rudolph found the approximate location of the Red Beard Island on it. The corpse of the Level 5 alchemist became the captain again. At this time, he controlled the Green Skull and headed towards the Red Beard Island.
Redbeard Island is a chaotic island. The pirate Redbeard is the ruler of this island. He has successfully transformed and runs this port. Collecting taxes is much easier than robbing.
This night, there was a thick white fog on the sea. A huge black shadow gradually approached and entered the sight of the pirates guarding Redbeard Island.
"In such bad weather, there are still ships entering the port. They are really not afraid of death. Aren't they afraid of hitting the lighthouse?"
"It's a big ship!"
"Oh, it's okay. It's a sailing ship... What era is it? There are still old sailing ships?"
"I don't know where this antique is. Is it going to participate in the Ship History Expo?"
"The flag is a green skull on a black background. Who recognizes this flag?"
The young pirate was still teasing the outdated sailing ship, and the old pirate had carefully distinguished the flag with a telescope.
"Oh no! It's the Green Skull!"
For a moment, the whole port was in chaos, and the pirate guards rolled and crawled to the depths of the island.
The young pirates didn't understand. They looked at the old pirates' frightened looks and found them a little ridiculous. The old pirates' eyes were almost popping out.
"It's the Green Skull! It's the ship of corpses that disappeared more than a decade ago!"
