Hearing Rudolph getting ready again, Cooper's heart was relieved. No, he had no heart. It should be said that the will-o'-the-wisp flickering in his eye sockets slowed down.
Several level 6 priests blushed and stopped attacking Rudolph. It seemed that Rudolph had controlled the situation. The crew members also breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, they didn't have to hide. The magma on the top of the mountain was increasing, and the space for hiding was getting smaller and smaller.
Cooper didn't let others approach Rudolph and the priest who were negotiating rashly. He took the remaining people to hide in the distance, waiting for the negotiation between Rudolph and the priest to come to a conclusion.
The battle stopped, and both sides ushered in a rare break. A low, rumbling sound came from the inside of the volcano, as if it was about to erupt at any time. The Longboli Volcanic Island was once again filled with that disturbing background sound.
In the distant sea, the burning ships exploded from time to time, and the shells and gunpowder were detonated, making those ships very dangerous. Rudolph did not take killing as his first goal. Many priests on the sea organized self-rescue.
The priests on the hillside looked at the Phoenix Wizard standing on the boulder, not knowing what to do.
Wright was the first to speak: "As expected of a Phoenix Wizard, one of the three strongest wizards in the South Sky, you are very strong."
"Thank you for the compliment. I just became a Phoenix Wizard and am not very skilled. Next time we meet, I hope to show you the appearance of the strongest Phoenix Wizard."
There were still many priests behind Wright. He felt embarrassed and raised his hand to give Rudolph another erosion ray. The scepter shone brightly, and the Phoenix Wizard just smiled at him calmly. Wright understood that it was meaningless to kill the Phoenix Wizard again, which would only boost the Phoenix Wizard's arrogance.
Rudolph did not wait for the erosion ray. On the surface, he was a little disappointed, but in fact, he was very fortunate in his heart. It was very painful to die once. He said: "I suggest you put down the scepter. If you want to fight, continue to fight. Since you want to talk, talk properly. You only highlight your incompetence."
The more unscrupulous Rudolph was, the safer he was. The extreme pressure made them think that Rudolph still had strong fighting power. Anyway, these people didn't know how many times Rudolph could be resurrected.
Wright, who was ridiculed, put down his scepter. The Phoenix Wizard in front of him was very difficult to deal with. In addition to the immortal ability, the Phoenix Wizard's trump card also made him wary. He had a level 5 magic weapon prepared in advance for promotion. The background of this wizard was very unusual.
"The others go to the beach, Priest Hall, Priest Heger, the three of us stay."
Wright had a hunch that the negotiations might be a bit ugly, so it would be better to let the ordinary priests leave.
After the priests left, Wright relaxed a little. The Phoenix Wizard did not stop the low-level priests from leaving.
In a short period of time, one person each of the level 5 White Demon Priest, the level 5 Oblivion Priest, and the level 5 Trapped Priest died, which made the three level 6 priests lose their dignity.
"I didn't expect that this volcanic island would be the place where Phoenix wizards are promoted." Wright looked around and said, "Rudolf, the Southern Phoenix Wizard, you have exposed important information about the Phoenix Secrets. As long as this island is blocked, the birth of the next Phoenix wizard can be prevented."
The Phoenix Secrets are known to very few wizards, let alone the White Magic Church. It is believed that this will become the top secret information of the Church of the Gods in the future, especially since this place is not far from the parish of the White Magic Church. The White Magic Church will not allow more Phoenix wizards to be born.
"Blockade this volcanic island?" Rudolf asked with some confusion:
"Block it, just block it. You don't think I will be heartbroken because other wizards can't become Phoenix wizards, right? I'm already in the car, you'd better help me weld the car door. Weld it tightly, without leaving any cracks. It's best to send a lot of people to guard the Longboli Volcanic Island for hundreds of years, and don't let other wizards become Phoenix wizards."
The Annihilation Priest Hall shook his head: "If your behavior of cutting off people's retreat gets out, aren't you afraid that other wizards will become your enemy?"
Three level 6 priests chased Rudolf. Rudolf was not in the mood to think about these things at the time.
"I have the Phoenix Secret Formula. No matter what I do, I will become the public enemy of wizards. They will be jealous and envious. Children cannot have too good toys, otherwise they will be snatched away by others.
They will not be soft on me, so why should I care about what other wizards think? Why should I worry about whether other wizards have the opportunity to become Phoenix wizards?
Should I use love and justice to influence others? That is a fairy tale, not the future I am about to face."
Seeing the shameless look of the Phoenix Wizard, the Annihilation Priest Hall said: "Shamelessness is the amulet of the despicable, you are shameless."
"Thank you, this is a compliment to me." Rudolf said:
"After fighting all night, I'm a little tired, and I'm sure you are the same. You, the level 6 high priests, are protected by oracles, and I can't do anything to you. I see you can't do anything to me either, so how about this, even if you win today?"
Wright said in a low voice: "Give us back the relics of the level 5 priests."
The appearance of magical tools made of the relics of level 5 priests on the market is something the church cannot tolerate.
"It's unlikely. You don't know how many relics I have. The three new relics I got today have been mixed up in the pile of relics and can't be found."
This poor excuse... Wright's face turned pale. He looked at the sea: "We will take away the relics of the priests' bodies on the ship."
"You brought wizards with you?"
"Of course."
"This is a lesson for me. Only those in the same industry are naked enemies. In the future, we should get rid of wizards first." Rudolph thought for a while and said, "Okay, I won't touch the relics on the sea, but I want that ship."
Negotiations are back and forth. Rudolph made a step and then took a step forward. Following the direction of Rudolph's finger, the priests saw the flagship of the Trapped Church.
Rudolph was very satisfied with the big ship: "It is worthy of being the flagship of the Church of the God of Craftsmen. That ship is very good, not worse than the alchemists."
The Church of the God of Craftsmen is far inferior to the alchemists in terms of innovation ability, but their imitation ability is very strong. The alchemists mocked them as "reverse research and development."
When the trapped priest Heg heard this condition, his tone was very high: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Rudolf spread his hands indifferently: "Then you have to work hard later, I hope you can hold on. I am not discussing with you, I am informing you. My ship was stranded and destroyed because of your pursuit. You must compensate me something, one for one, it is not too much."
"Villain! A villain who uses the power of immortality to be arrogant and domineering!"
"How can you scold me? You have no quality." Rudolf looked at Wright: "If I continue to attack, I'm sorry, if I pick up some relics, I won't return them to you."
Heg wanted to say something, but Wright raised his hand to stop him: "Forget it, Heg. Even if you don't give it to him, he has the ability to destroy the ship."
Priest Heg's face was very ugly, but he couldn't get angry. Wright said the truth. There
was nothing to say, and the three priests turned and left.
When the three priests arrived at the shore, Rudolf saw priests coming down from the flagship of the trapped church. The priests abided by the negotiation results, which made Rudolf very pleased.
These priests knew what was happening and knew that fighting tonight would only result in losses for both sides. Unfortunately, they took the trouble to fish out the bodies of the priests and took away their belongings. The church believed that their power came from the great evil god. The relics were made into magic tools by wizards and could be used for magic. This was a blasphemy against the evil god. The church had special fanatics who recovered the relics or magic tools that were lost.
"Mr. Rudolph, why do you keep covering your chest?"
"It hurts to see three level 6 relics leave."
In the speechless eyes of others, Rudolph felt that he was extremely distressed. He was really distressed. He had just used sparks to deal with the level 5 priests. It was too strong and he couldn't bear it.
"Cooper, we survived. Three level 6 priests can't do anything to us. Next..."
Rudolph wanted to say something, but saw Cooper hurriedly turned his head and ran in one direction.
"Cooper! Cooper?"
When Rudolph followed Cooper to a skeleton, he also understood why Cooper was so anxious.
This was the skeleton that Rudolph had just destroyed to prevent Cooper from being caught by the trapped priest. There was a hole in the skull of the skeleton, which was the hole left by the fire.
This skeleton is the skeleton of Cooper's original body. Cooper stared at his own body for a long time without saying anything. Rudolph also stared at this skeleton for a long time without saying anything.
It seemed as if a big piece of his heart was missing. This was the biggest connection between Cooper and the past. Now, he has completely lost his body.
"How should I put it? Everything has a first time. You will get used to it slowly in the future. As for the body, you will get used to it after changing it."
"If you can't comfort people, please don't speak."
Cooper did not reply. The ghost light in his skull was dim and he was in a low mood.
Rudolph and others said, "Let's go. Let's go receive our new ship first, and let Cooper calm down here."
Cooper will clean up the battlefield. His collection has lost a lot tonight. It is estimated that at least 100 bodies, all of which are level 3 masters and apprentices, have been destroyed. The bodies of the priests halfway up the mountain will be added to Cooper.
Everyone walked down the mountain. When they were close to the battlefield, they realized what Rudolph had just done.
The two flagships left with half of the remaining ships. There were still many ships sunk in the sea, with only chimneys or flagpoles exposed. The crew were amazed, as these were all the achievements of Mr. Rudolf alone.
Rudolf pointed at the flagship of the Church of the Trapped: "That's our new ship!"
Mackenzie had just eaten a mouthful of volcanic ash on the mountain, and his face was covered in dust. When he looked at the flagship of the Church of the Trapped, he felt terrible: "Mr. Rudolf! The flagship of the 6th-level Trapped Priest! The highest-specification ship imitated by the Church of Craftsmen, and you can rob it?"
"Your wording is not very polite. I got it through negotiation, not robbed. Do you think I'm the kind of pirate who only knows how to rob?"
"Mr. Rudolf, don't pretend. After half a month, when the news spreads, you will be the most rampant pirate on the Saragu Sea in the propaganda of the Church of the Gods!"
Hearing Mackenzie's words, Rudolf sighed: "It's really sad. I, Rudolf, have accumulated virtue and done good deeds, and never had any bad thoughts. Now I have fallen into a pirate on the Saragu Sea. Isn't this an insult?"
Ignoring Rudolf's complaints, Mackenzie and others hurriedly boarded the flagship.
"Since this ship was captured on the Longboli Volcanic Island, we will call it the 'Volcano' from now on."
The crew was very excited to hear Rudolf's name. This was the best ship they could find on the Saragu Sea. But Rudolf's next words made Mackenzie's back cold.
"No other requirements, I hope the Volcano can last a year in our hands, and not be broken within a year."
The Bauhinia accompanied them the longest, more than ten months. The Green Skull and the Red Scimitar were only used for less than two months. Thinking of this, Mr. Rudolf was too wasteful.
"Absolutely not!" Mackenzie said firmly:
"Mr. Rudolf, you don't know about this ship. This ship is more powerful than you can imagine.
The Church of the Craftsmen is particularly good at imitation in the field of steam machinery. As long as the alchemists develop some new and useful technology, the Church of the Craftsmen will imitate it soon, and sometimes these technologies will even surpass the alchemists.
The evil god has restricted the creativity of the priests, and those priests only know how to hold worship services to worship the evil god. Fortunately, plagiarism is much simpler than innovation. The Church of the Craftsmen focuses its energy on imitation and is good at reverse research and development.
If placed in the alchemist's ship, the Volcano is equivalent to a 120-gun ship. It is the largest and most powerful ship in the existing fleet.
In addition to the level 5 alchemical reinforcement array, Mr. Rudolf, look, there are also matrix rockets!"
Following the direction of Mackenzie's finger, Rudolf saw 8 iron lumps that were two people tall. There were rockets in the iron box. Ordinary shells were too small. Rockets as tall as a person could allow alchemists to add more alchemy and were more powerful.
Rudolf remembered that when he was in Fabro City, the main weapon on Colonel Guyton's Silver Flame was rockets.
"With a wider hull than the Bauhinia, a deeper draft, and a larger cargo capacity, if you can destroy this 120-gun ship within a year, you can compete for the biggest loser on the Saragu Sea. The son of the Count of the Peninsula is not half as good as you."
Rudolf didn't care about it: "A ship is a tool, and tools will always break down."
Mackenzie shook his head: "So you will never become a real captain. You don't have a real love for ships and a deep respect for the sea."
Rudolf stopped talking. He really didn't want to be a great captain.
"Go to the wreckage of the Bauhinia and move everything you can use. Don't waste it."
When the crew was busy, Rudolf locked himself in the cabin and told others not to disturb him tonight.
After lighting six candles on the table and taking a short rest in front of the candlelight, Rudolf prepared to start studying the resurrection of the Phoenix Wizard.
There are still many secrets to be explored in the rebirth of the Phoenix Wizard. The star power limit and the loss of body functions must be figured out how to recover.
