Chapter 324: The Paper Figurine

~7 min read 1,255 words

"Iron" Maiweiti looked at the looming port, unconsciously lowering the brim of his worn-out hat.

For the sake of concealment, these pirates of theirs all dressed as ordinary fishermen, and the work they did day after day was also that of fishermen, hiding perfectly.

It was just that sometimes, some of the barrels used to hold fish would contain Blood-Venerating Cultists.

The power of the Dream Sect was too great, causing all the Churches to mobilize, swearing to eradicate the Blood Sect.

Under such circumstances, even someone as crazy as the Rose School of Thought had to be extremely careful; once discovered, the outcome would be being besieged by numerous Churches.

"Fortunately, the captain has already attacked the 'Golden Dream' to divert the Church's attention."

"And the largest local Church has been held back by the 'Sea God' Kavatuwa."

The news of the cooperation between the Rose School of Thought and the Blood Sect had also spread long ago; now they were also on the Church's wanted list, and the bounty had been raised by a full double by the Dream Sect.

This was terrifying!

That was the power of money!

"Have all the fish been unloaded?" Maiweiti looked at those busy fishermen and shouted loudly.

"It's done!" These fishermen were also locals, used to cover their tracks.

"Good!" Maiweiti led those few true members of the Rose School of Thought off the ship and walked toward the garden villa he had purchased.

After checking around and confirming it was safe, these people finally relaxed.

"Damn it, I'm about to live like those pieces of trash from the 'Temperance Faction'!" The malice in the eyes of the sailor under Maiweiti was almost overflowing.

For the Indulgence Faction, living like the Temperance Faction was the greatest insult to them.

"Don't cause me trouble, or I'll personally send you to feed the fish!" A red light flashed in Maiweiti's eyes as he looked at the complaining sailor.

The sailor's pupils shrank, and all the malice dissipated without a trace.

The desires of the Indulgence Faction were not worth mentioning in the face of intense mortal danger.

During this period, "Iron" Maiweiti had already personally disposed of three companions.

"Rest, we continue to go out to sea tomorrow!" Maiweiti's gaze swept over the others.

"Yes!"

Hmph! Maiweiti gave a light snort and returned to his room.

This "Living Corpse" was exceptionally cautious; when entering his own house, he went through a round of checks, and a charm emitted an eerie red light, scanning the entire room.

"No living people, no dead people, and certainly no spirits or Wraiths." Only then did Maiweiti set his mind at ease; he walked into his room and used that charm to seal his room.

He walked toward his bed and subconsciously looked at the window glass.

This was a habitual action, because the "Admiral of Blood" would also frequently hide in a Mirror, scanning everyone with a malicious gaze.

Fortunately, there was no figure in the glass, but unfortunately, there was a Paper Figurine there.

No living people, no dead people, but there was a Paper Figurine.

The moment Maiweiti saw the Paper Figurine that did not belong in his room, he instantly entered a berserk state.

It was just that this was already too late.

In an instant, the Paper Figurine expanded into Klein; of course, this was also an External Incarnation, but under the condition of Klein's spirit body Possession, this incarnation was no worse than his original body!

"Roar!" Relying on the powerful body and speed of a Living Corpse, Maiweiti slammed into Klein; during this process, the temperature in the room also dropped sharply, and a lot of frost appeared.

Klein was not in a hurry; he reached behind him and touched, pulling out another Paper Figurine.

Well, from the very beginning, there were two Paper Figurines placed here.

He gave a sharp flick, and the Paper Figurine also flew out, transforming into Miss Sharon. This Paper Figurine was just a Paper Figurine, but with the power of a "Person in the Painting", it could use Beyonder abilities.

As soon as the Paper Figurine Miss Sharon appeared, she manifested the essence of a "Wraith" and, under Klein's control, jumped directly onto "Iron" Maiweiti.

He knew that "Iron" Maiweiti was a "Living Corpse" and his physical strength was terrifyingly strong; he could defeat or even kill him now, but this would inevitably cause a certain amount of destruction, which might be discovered by others.

That was why he brought a Paper Figurine; Sharon's abilities perfectly countered a "Living Corpse".

"Sha... ron!" "Iron" Maiweiti recognized Sharon, and he suddenly wanted to close his eyes, but at this moment, Sharon's figure was already reflected in his eyes, and his body had already slipped out of his control.

"Uh..." The veins on "Iron" Maiweiti's head were exposed, and he struggled with all his might, but being controlled by a "Wraith" and with Klein present, he simply could not resist.

Klein stepped forward and raised his hand, the power of frost condensing in his palm; this was an ability he had replicated from "Iron" Maiweiti.

His palm landed on "Iron" Maiweiti's eyes.

Sss!

Two ice pillars pierced through his eyes and into his brain, and then the cold air was injected along the ice pillars; soon, Maiweiti's brain turned into an ice flower—brain flowers are flowers too!

The body of this pirate, whose bounty had now reached as high as 12,000 pounds, went completely stiff; the death of his brain was absolute.

The frost in Klein's hands did not stop until Maiweiti was completely frozen into an ice sculpture.

Klein picked up the red charm in Maiweiti's hand and opened the room's defenses.

Creak!

The window opened, and Leonard, Maric, and Danitz filed in.

Miss Sharon also appeared on the window glass.

"You finished it so quickly?!" Danitz had guessed that this Sherlock was strong, but he hadn't expected him to be this powerful!

He was definitely a Beyonder of the pirate general level... Danitz felt that he couldn't escape.

"Don't block me, I still need to perform spirit mediumship." Klein's voice came from behind Danitz; his spirit had returned to his body, and he climbed in through the window.

"Oh, oh, oh!" Danitz was meek and submissive.

The External Incarnation Paper Figurine handed the charm to Klein and directly burned into ashes.

Klein first re-sealed the room, and only then did he begin to perform spirit mediumship on Iron Maiweiti.

Now Klein's Spirituality was high enough that spirit mediumship no longer required a ritual; his Spirituality turned into a large hand and directly grabbed Maiweiti's spirit out.

"How do you transport the Blood-Venerating Cultists?" Klein asked in a fast tone.

"Every time we dock, the Blood-Venerating Cultists would sneak into the fishing boats at night and seal themselves in wooden barrels..."

Klein nodded gently, "Then how do you contact the 'Tree of Flesh and Blood'? How do you send people onto the pirate ship? What is your method for verifying identities?"

Klein asked questions in succession, and finally learned all the intelligence before Maiweiti's spirit dissipated.

"Do you all remember?" Klein looked at Danitz and the others, and they all nodded.

"Then wait for me to draw a picture first." Klein took out a blank Paper Figurine on the spot, used the ice sculpture as a human model, and began to copy it.

This originally should have been a very artistic thing...

"Creepy!" Danitz muttered, moving a few steps away from Klein.
