Chapter 27 Picking Up and Putting Down
The cold sea breeze blew towards us.
Soren stood on the roof of the village and stared at the sea in the distance. The expression on his face did not change at all. He looked like he was wearing a mask. Only extremely careful people would notice that Soren's fingers were trembling slightly, and his index finger was gently rubbing against the blade. There was a strong smell of blood on his body and a very strong murderous aura. This murderous aura was not spoken by white teeth, but was piled up by people's heads.
Sauron couldn't control his murderous aura!
He has killed too many people recently. From the moment he met Adele, and then to the time he captured Viper Island, Sauron came over and harvested too many heads.
The repeated killings breed the violence in his heart, which is a kind of confrontation in will.
Hesitate!
A slight swimming sound came from not far away, and Sauron's figure disappeared in place. When he appeared again, he had already pinched a spotted poisonous snake in his palm. This is the Viper Island, with a considerable number of poisonous snakes. There is a circle of drugs to drive out poisonous snakes near the mountain village. I don't know why the poisonous snakes behind can still run in. It is difficult to completely eliminate the poisonous snakes here because there is a snake cave behind. It will definitely take a lot of casualties to clear these poisonous snakes.
Sauron pinched the head of the scalloped poisonous snake with two fingers, and the poison in his palm wrapped around his arm with his body, and then began to tighten it bit by bit. A cold touch came from Sauron's arm, and he still looked silently in the distance, as if something was attracting him. Only when his eyes left the sea, a hint of obscure violence and pupils with a slight blood-lit light appeared in his eyes. The form of the killer has been lifted, and he satisfied the bloodthirsty desire to transform into the killer, but it seems that more desires are being born.
A sharp sword light emerged.
Soren cut the snake body of the flower-spotted snake, then stretched out his fingers to pinch out a snake gall. He raised his hand and put the snake gall into his mouth, chewing it gently. A bitter smell that was a bit unbearable appeared, and the corners of Soren's mouth twitched slightly. His brow couldn't help but frowned, but he still chewed slowly. Until the bitter taste in his mouth had faded, he swallowed slowly.
Click!
He threw away the corpse of the poisonous snake and still stared at the sea in the distance.
"Special expertise: [Killing desire], after transforming into a Killer, you will be affected by the Killer, you will become extremely sensitive to blood, and you will be hidden and strengthened for any killing-related perceptions. However, after transforming into a Killer, you must kill at least 4 targets to satisfy the killing desire in your heart, otherwise you will enter a state of madness. This killing desire will gradually increase with the number of times you transform!"
This is the special feature of transforming into a slayer.
If he remembers correctly, after the first time he transformed into a killer and killed the Son of Fear, he only needed two heads to satisfy his desire to kill.
One, two, four.
Sauron discovered that after transforming into a Killer, the number of people who satisfy the killing desire was increasing, almost doubling in geometric form. Although there are only 4 now, if he continues to follow this progress, the more times he transforms, the higher the requirement of satisfying the killing desire. In the end, it may become an extremely exaggerated number. This ability can greatly strengthen his power, but it seems to make him get closer and closer to the real Killer.

Slight footsteps.
Adele Isabella's figure appeared not far away. After the battle, she took off her armor. She temporarily liberated her full chest and felt tightened with a cloth strip. She looked at Soren in the distance, and her whole body was shocked. Then she looked a little dazed, as if she suddenly saw the shadow of her father in him. For a while, his father also liked to stand like this and look at the sea, as if there were too many meanings in the sea.
The sea is a charming place.
Her father lived on the sea almost all his life. He used to be a notorious and cruel pirate, but since he had her daughter, he gradually became much more restrained. It is said that after he killed the enemy in the past, he liked to hang the enemy's corpses on the mast or nailed them to wooden frames and let the sea eagles eat. The merchant ships he robbed by robbers almost never left a living. However, since she became sensible, she never seemed to have seen her father do this again.
This change becomes more obvious after the mother's death!
That night she knew that her father knelt in the temple and repented for a whole night. She went to the temple a lot because he was a believer of the goddess of the ocean, but in the past he sacrificed gods and prayed for blessings. In Adele's memory, her father seemed to have never confessed in the temple. The mother should have hated him, even at the moment of death, because he killed his mother's husband and then forced his mother to take back. However, the father should have loved her, because in Adele's memory, he seemed to have never been close to other women except his mother.
From that time on.
His father killed fewer and fewer people. After robbing merchant ships, he often did not kill innocent people. He would go to the temple to confess every week. No one knew what he confessed, but Adele knew that he would always feel guilty towards his mother.
Things might have passed like this.
Unfortunately, reality still gave them a ruthless blow. His confession and kindness was regarded as weak by other pirates. More and more people began to feel dissatisfied with him, and finally someone resisted him and plotted to overthrow him. It was not until the moment his father was besieged and killed by hundreds of people that Adele saw his former fierceness and bravery. This man called the "kill whale" did not become weak. He fought in the crowd in blood, as if he was a tiger, and finally fought for her a way out, and never fell down until the moment he died in battle!
This may be fatherly love.
After her mother died, her father, who rarely killed people, only showed his strength when he wanted to kill her. He was still the notorious pirate who killed people. Those who guessed that he had grown old and became weak all recalled his bravery and cruelty at that moment!
My father died in battle.
He died in battle to protect her!
Many people died that night. Wherever his father's sword light went, he was surrounded by people. He was stronger than before and had even touched the edge of the legend. But Adele still couldn't understand his thoughts. She didn't understand why his father didn't show his power in advance. Just a little killing could suppress the rebellious heart of others. Why was he willing to draw his sword and fight until the last moment!
Adele couldn't understand all this.
But she still told herself in her heart not to be weak, because weakness will be defeated by cruel reality.
I have a lot of memories of my father.
But what impressed her most was the way her father stood at a high place and looked at the sea. The picture overlapped with Soren in front of her, and inexplicably made her feel the similarity between the two.
Perhaps there is something in the heart of the man in front of him that he regards as more precious than his own life.
The only difference is.
My father put down the knife, and he picked up the knife.
……………………
Adele still knows nothing about the man in front of her, and all her feelings are just women's intuition.
The man in front of him seemed to notice her arrival, took his gaze back from the sea in the distance, then turned around and looked at her faintly, and slowly said, "Is the statistics finished?"
"Yes." Adele leaned over to express his respect and spoke: "I found two boxes of gold and jewelry from the cottage. I have basically found places with secret lattices. There are a lot of goods in the warehouse, but they need to be transported out for sale. The total value should be about 23,000 Jindlers, of which about 8,000 Jindlers can be spent directly, and the rest are valuables and goods."
Sauron nodded softly.
He looked at the woman in front of him with satisfaction and ordered: "All those who participated in the battle will be rewarded with fifteen Jindlers. The stock of meat will be allowed to be eaten, but no one is allowed to drink. You count the goods that are easy to take off, and then bring five thousand Jindlers with you. Tomorrow morning, take a group of people to the Port of Taylor. All the goods will be removed, even if the price is low, then you will recruit people, and these funds should be enough for you to recruit a group of desperados."
"I won't stay here for too much time. In three days we will destroy the sea wolf in the shipwreck Bay!"
"I think you should know how to control these guys, too."
"Go down."
Sauron waved his hand gently, saying, "After all, there are a few people who can read literacy in this world. There are many good thugs among the pirates, but not many who can read and learn. The woman in front of her is pretty good. She received some aristocratic education from her mother, and she is stronger than other pirates in terms of knowledge, trade and management. The only thing she lacks at the moment is strength. As a woman, she needs stronger strength to suppress these rebellious pirates.
Level 4 alone is not enough, at least you need to reach the level of quasi-legend!
But after all, there is Sauron behind her. As long as the pirates know that there is this mysterious and terrifying existence behind everything, they dare not do anything in their hearts because of fear.
Because Sauron's prestige was piled up with their heads!
but.
The number of heads is not enough now.
Sauron also needs to use more people to accumulate his prestige, so that the pirates will tremble when they think of him, so that Sauron will not be destroyed after going to the overseas archipelago.
Adele is just the leader on the surface, and Sauron must use thunder means to shock them!
Killing and rewards.
This is just the easiest way to control it.
