Chapter 54 - Fear of Power, Not Gratitude

After killing another two skeptical Navy soldiers, the entire HMS Fearless had become Li Qingyuan's flagship.

And the remaining nearly two hundred soldiers and seventy-plus sailors had become his first batch of subordinates.

Although British soldiers in this era could definitely be considered elite, no matter how elite a soldier was, they couldn't withstand that hellish scene.

Even Jack Sparrow, who was used to seeing all sorts of big scenes, almost threw up after seeing the situation on the deck, let alone the ordinary soldiers!

This was the final clash between science and theology. Science had not yet completely taken over the mainstream market, and even in Europe, the Church still held supreme power.

The famous pirates in Pirates of the Caribbean, such as the 'Sea Ghost' Davy Jones, and 'Blackbeard' Edward Teach, were feared mainly because they were shrouded in an aura of mystery.

Normal people wouldn't dare to oppose those legendary demons, and now, in the eyes of those British Navy, Li Qingyuan was no different from a demon god!

Such a feat, slaughtering nearly a hundred people single-handedly, could only be matched by the demonic gods of ancient mythology, according to historical records.

In ancient Eastern history, there were often tales of warriors who could defeat a hundred men, but for Europeans, even the most formidable knight couldn't take on twenty fully armed soldiers alone.

Furthermore, including the first mate, all three would scream and drop their weapons when preparing to ambush him, so the soldiers had instinctively equated him with those strange Eastern sorcerers of legend.

It should be known that even before the First Sino-Japanese War, European countries still held a certain reverence for the mysterious East, because the West had been repeatedly defeated by the East throughout history. Therefore, even though there had been several wars, the Westerners of that time didn't dare to completely ignore the Qing Dynasty.

It wasn't until the outbreak of the First Sino-Japanese War, when Japan, a small island nation, tore away the last fig leaf of the Qing Dynasty, that the Westerners truly felt superior!

I've digressed again!

At this point in time, the British had only recently defeated the Spanish and secured their status as the masters of the sea. But decades earlier, when the Spanish were rampant across the seas, they were routed in the East.

Therefore, in those days, a mysterious Eastern sorcerer was definitely more terrifying than any local demon.

No way around it, the outsider is always the best!

"Captain, are we going to Isla de Muerta now?"

After arranging everything on the ship, Jack Sparrow finally twitched the muscles on his face and asked Li Qingyuan, who was sitting on the second deck.

Although the smile on his face looked very stiff, it was already difficult to smile under the current circumstances.

After all, no one expected that the person they met on a deserted island would be a ruthless killer!

The other person's smile was too deceptive, even he, who had been on the edge of life and death for years, hadn't noticed it.

"Why should we go to Isla de Muerta?" Li Qingyuan raised his head and looked at the sky, crossing his legs.

"Barbossa and my Black Pearl are currently on Isla de Muerta. The Black Pearl has become dilapidated because of the raid on Port Royal. As long as we rush to Isla de Muerta, we can immediately annihilate them and get the huge treasure Barbossa has plundered over the years!" Jack Sparrow rubbed his fingers, looking like he was doing it for the captain's good.

"Jack, Jack, are you still planning to screw me over?" Seeing Jack Sparrow's fake smile, Li Qingyuan instantly wanted to shoot the guy.

Admittedly, Jack Sparrow was quite likable when watching the movies, but in reality, if you truly interacted with this guy, you had to be prepared to be screwed over at any moment.

Barbossa and his crew had all become immortal due to the curse. Although they didn't have any other superpowers, just the fact that they couldn't be killed was already infuriating!

"No, Captain, how dare I screw you over!" Jack Sparrow quickly put on an innocent expression. If he hadn't known the plot beforehand, with that acting, he could have at least won an Oscar!

"Jack, to be honest, I have a good impression of you and am even willing to let you be my first mate, but if you still think that this wizard from the East is so easily deceived, then I might have to change my first mate!" Li Qingyuan smiled slightly and pointed a finger at Jack.

"Ah!"

A scream came from Jack Sparrow's mouth, and he collapsed to the ground, his whole body convulsing.

Those soldiers who were cleaning up the limbs on the deck all looked at the first mate lying on the ground with shocked eyes, then lowered their heads in fear and continued working.

The mysterious and unpredictable captain, with just a thought, could make a person's life worse than death. They didn't have the courage to resist now, no matter what the captain said, they just had to do it!

"Are you a bit more clear-headed now? My good friend, Jack!" After letting Jack Sparrow lie there for several minutes, Li Qingyuan asked with a smile.

"¥%@(¥#!*)" Jack Sparrow was still twitching on the ground, foam coming from his mouth, repeating unconscious words.

"You actually recovered a long time ago. If you don't get up, I don't mind giving you another one!" Seeing that the other party was still pretending, Li Qingyuan stood up, walked in front of Jack Sparrow, and revealed a gentle smile.

"Captain, you speak, what can I do for you!"

With a flip, Jack Sparrow jumped up from the deck and immediately accompanied his smile.

This guy only responds to tough love. If you're polite with him, he can directly sell you to the Pacific Ocean.

"I'm going to find Tia Dalma, you're in charge of leading the way!"

When he met Jack Sparrow, Li Qingyuan had already thought about what he should do. With his current ability, it was already an over-the-top performance to seize the HMS Fearless. If he wanted to complete the system's task, that was definitely beyond his capabilities.

The MP5 only had two hundred rounds remaining, making it a last resort.

The C4 Explosives were the same. They couldn't be used unless absolutely necessary.

Besides, in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, having cannons didn't guarantee victory!

If he wanted to deal with those strange, mysterious forces, he needed to learn black magic, or find someone who knew it to work for him.

And Tia Dalma was the best choice!
