Today is destined to be a day that goes down in history.
The civilians and slaves of the city-state of Ryanrondo will never forget this day.
A god-like man who brings disaster and controls thunderstorms and hurricanes, took action in anger because of the atrocities of an extraordinary person and destroyed almost all the extraordinary families on the island.
The port was shrouded in a black tide that blocked out the sun.
They witnessed with their own eyes that the godly man chopped off the heads of all the invading nobles with his own hands, without mercy.
"God of disaster... You are the greatest savior..."
Some slaves cried bitterly and wailed loudly.
No one knew what a miserable life they had led before that, a life that could not even be called human life.
Now these families are almost all dead.
They were so happy in their hearts that they even didn't care about survival.
Even if Rogge and the black tide outside swallowed or destroyed Ryan Rondo, they would have no regrets in their hearts.
"Rogge, my good captain, what good things have you done again?"
At this time, everyone on the Green who arrived here was also stunned by this scene.
But they were certainly not shocked by Rogge's massacre.
They knew Rogge's character well. If these people died, it was most likely that they deserved it.
What shocked them was that Rogge could fight against so many extraordinary people alone.
And there's a Heishatan... Oh, that's okay.
"Mr. Roger..."
At this time, Feng Nado was so shocked that he even stopped thinking.
Chergen, who had just stolen the secret treasure from his family and was about to come out to help Rogge, was stunned when he saw this scene.
"you… "
He was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
He really couldn't imagine that Rogge could kill all the extraordinary people in Ryan Rondo by himself.
You are so strong, which makes me look stupid!
Although many of them are still his and Vonado’s relatives.
But Chergen didn't feel anything about their death, instead he was very happy about it.
After all, his and Vonado's parents had passed away long ago, and it was these "relatives" who made it happen.
"Want to avenge them?"
Roger's eyes fell on him.
"Revenge?" Chergen denied it immediately upon hearing it, and even had an irrepressible smile on his face: "How is that possible? You cut off this damn cage and shackles, I am so happy that I can't wait."
But soon, his smile gradually disappeared.
"... But the cage and the chains are broken, but the cell is still there, and they will eventually grow back..."
Chergen sighed.
Is it a happy thing that Ryan Rondo no longer has a family of extraordinary people
of course.
But what happens after they are destroyed
When other island families hear the news, they will rush in like vultures and hyenas and devour Ryan Rondo frantically.
Ultimately, if no other forces intervene, Ryan Rondo's situation will not change.
As Chergen said.
As long as they haven't walked out of the "prison cell", the chains and shackles will grow again, endlessly...
Hearing this, Roger chuckled.
“… Then get out of the cell.”
After taking a deep look at Chergen, he turned to look at the civilians and slaves below.
Then, his body slowly rose into the air, and in the sight of everyone, he flew into the sky, surrounded by thunderstorms and hurricanes.
The civilians and slaves below stared in amazement.
This... is really... a god!
Plop!
Many people even fell to their knees, unable to restrain themselves.
Rogge lowered his head slightly, looked down at everyone, and spoke lightly.
His throat turned slightly white, and he used his dragon power to allow the sound to reach almost every corner of Ryan Rondo.
"I am a priest under the seat of the Lord of the Black Tide, in charge of disasters."
"Besides Ryan Rondo, there is my Lord. He is synonymous with mystery and fear, and also a symbol of fairness and justice."
"From today… "
"There will no longer be a Ryan Rondo family that monopolizes extraordinary knowledge in Ryan Rondo. The Black Tide will take over this place."
"By holding the Black Tide Mark, reciting the Black Tide's name and offering sacrifices or devotion, one can gain extraordinary knowledge and power."
"Whether you have faith or piety, the Black Tide will go with you!"
After saying that, Roger paused.
He looked toward the harbor in the distance.
Everyone in Ryan Rondo heard a strange roar at this moment, which seemed to be a recognition from the abyss.
Following that was the falling of countless black streams of light.
Click.
One after another, the Black Tide Marks fell in front of the civilians and slaves.
They stared in amazement, unable to believe what they saw and heard.
is this real
Tears unconsciously overflowed from their eyes and slid down.
Rogge looked at Chergen and used the power of faith to communicate with him.
"Can you be the city lord?"
Chergen was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He glanced at Rogge in the sky, and then said after a moment of silence: "As long as fairness and justice can be guaranteed, and..."
Hearing this, Roger chuckled and said, "I know what you want to say, don't worry."
"Just be the city lord with peace of mind. Countless extraordinary human beings will set sail from here..."
After saying this, he cancelled the voice transmission.
He turned around and looked down at the crowd of civilians and slaves again.
Roger raised his hand slightly.
The civilians and slaves who were kneeling on the ground were shocked to find that their knees were lifted up by a force.
"The family that monopolizes power has made you kneel down... The Lord of the Black Tide demands that you stand up!"
"As the people of the Black Tide, you will have equal rights granted by the Lord of the Black Tide. There is no distinction between high and low, and you do not need to kneel to anyone."
"The Lord of the Dark Tide does not need slaves who kneel down, He only wants people who stand up."
"From now on, Ryan Rondo will be renamed Black Tide City, and Chergen is the first city lord recognized by the Lord of Black Tide."
"The old shackles are broken, and everyone will usher in a new life!"
His words fell on every corner of Ryan Rondo.
At the same time, a message popped up on Rogge's faith interface.
[The number of your followers has increased significantly! ]
The crowd below was silent for a moment.
Chergen took a deep breath and yelled.
"Break the shackles, and the black tide will last forever!"
In an instant, everyone seemed to wake up, and suddenly burst into a huge voice like a tidal wave, resounding throughout the Black Tide City.
"Break the shackles, the black tide will last forever!!!"
"Break the shackles, the black tide will last forever!!!"
"Break the shackles, the black tide will last forever!!!"
…
Ryan Rondo has been completely erased from the history of the Swamp of Corruption.
In its place is the brand new Black Tide City.
Under Rogge's instruction, Chergen took over the power of Black Tide City and became the first lord of the city.
And he has a lot to do.
The first thing is reform, drastic reform, reform from the inside out.
Rogge has already come up with some auxiliary extraordinary potion recipes.
The mode of production must change.
In the past, these short-sighted families monopolized the knowledge of potions for the sake of their own petty profits, and never thought of using extraordinary knowledge to solve the most basic production needs.
Now that Rogge has taken over the city, the first thing he has to do is to train enough production-type extraordinary people.
Only when people are well fed will there be enough population and more faith.
As for how to do it specifically, he no longer asked. Anyway, Rogge only needed to take care of the general direction, and the rest would be left to Chergen.
Letting him be the city lord is not just for free.
He has more important things to do, which is to improve his strength.
After all, in the mysterious world, strength is the foundation.
His strength is the basis of the Black Tide City.
It is worth mentioning that there is still a family that has survived in the Black Tide City.
That was the DeWeese family.
When they were first called up, they didn't even obey orders.
Rogge was too lazy to settle the accounts. After all, according to Chergen, the DeWeese family, under the control of Svica, was the most well-behaved family on the island.
…
"The next destination is the Rose Island."
"However, Doyle and Etal are still missing."
"To get to Rose Island, we will pass through two small islands and a large depression... Let's find out their whereabouts along the way."
"The second is the promotion of the subject..."
"I have obtained the conditions for promotion. The fuel and self-sacrifice potion are easy to solve... This self-sacrifice potion actually requires my own blood, self-sufficient? I am drunk..."
"The difficulty now lies in the angel potion..."
"If you want to use the Enlightenment Prayer to gain inspiration, you need a lot of faith power. Now the faith power in Heishatan is not enough, and there is also the Black Tide City, which requires a lot of investment in the early stage..."
"This does not include the subsequent potion materials..."
“What a headache…”
In the captain's room, Roger's pen kept writing and drawing on the paper, and he rubbed his eyebrows with one hand.
He has now developed the habit of setting goals and planning for himself.
There was no way. This game had no mission system at all. Sometimes he would forget what his current main goal was, so he had to make plans.
[You have received a new prayer.]
At this time, a message came in.
Roger put down the pen in his hand and immersed his attention in it.
[Respected Lord of the Black Tide, I pray that you will grant me a corresponding recipe for the Agent Potion. This is my offering to you...]
Through his blurry vision, Roger saw the person praying this time.
Finmag.
There were a lot of items placed beside him, including some equipment, some monster materials, and even some treasures. Although they were not particularly precious, the quantity was large.
It seems that he hasn't found a suitable potion master or potion recipe.
… Well, it seems that the monopoly of extraordinary knowledge by the Swamp of Corruption is still quite cruel.
Pirates... might also be a good channel.
Looking at Finmag in front of him, a smile appeared on his face.
…
Finmag was actually a little nervous.
As a great pirate, although he was not a guy who killed innocent people indiscriminately and did all kinds of evil, he was not a good person either.
He was very grateful for Roger's help.
But it was impossible for him to easily believe what Rogge said.
But... just as Rogge thought, the monopoly of extraordinary knowledge by the Swamp of Corruption was really serious.
The families in each city-state have a very strict control over supernatural knowledge. Even the marriages of family members are conducted within the major families.
Most of these slaves and civilians could only switch between these two identities, otherwise they could only become pirates and plunderers.
Finmag searched the entire Swamp of Corruption and asked all his connections, but he couldn't find a free potion maker.
There is a family of extraordinary people, but does he dare to go
Previously, destroying Costia was just picking up an easy target. If we really attack other settlements or city-states, we would be sending ourselves to our deaths.
So, after searching for a while in vain, Finmag, who was at his wit's end, finally had no choice but to turn his attention to Rogge.
"... Lord of the Dark Tide, I pray to you..."
Finmag closed his eyes and recited his prayers, feeling uneasy.
He had been reciting for a while, but there was still no response, which made him confused.
But, in the next moment, he heard an echo that seemed to come from the abyss of the ancient deep sea.
What He was conveying was—not enough.
This made Finmuggton's scalp tingle, and he couldn't help but curse himself for being an idiot.
Damn it, how dare you, Finmag? You're praying to someone who looks like an evil god. Are you afraid of dying
You believe what this stranger, Roger, said? He is clearly setting a trap to trick you!
I guess the next thing he'll say is that he'll get your soul to go with the wine!
Damn, I'm so familiar with this script!
But when the next thought came to him, Finmag was stunned.
This thought conveys many intentions.
But he understood it all.
[Go and spread my name. As long as you pray and make sacrifices, everyone can obtain extraordinary knowledge and even magic potions. What I lead is fair trade.]
"…?"
There was a big "disbelief" in Finmag's heart.
He felt that the Lord of the Black Tide must have a big conspiracy, and probably wanted to enslave everyone through him!
God cannot be trusted!
A moment later.
Accompanied by the falling of a piece of paper.
"Finmag will obey your wishes, respected Lord of the Dark Tide..."
Finmag looked excited, his fingers trembling as he looked at the potion formula in his hand.
Free of charge!
Not only did the Lord of the Black Tide not send any sacrifices, he also did not devour his soul, and yet he obtained a potion formula for nothing.
This made him very excited.
However, regarding spreading the name of the Lord of the Black Tide...
"Spread the word? Spread the word!"
"This guy must be plotting something big. As a transcendent being, how could he possibly work for an evil god?"
Finmag sneered.
It is impossible to spread the word. He has already got a potion formula for free, so why bother about so many things
After saying that, Finmag looked at the mark in his hand with contempt, threw it casually, and threw it into the turbid and smelly swamp water.
Plop.
The dark green swamp water rippled, and a heavy mark sank into the water.
…
Rogge withdrew his gaze from Heisatan.
As for Finmag, he just made a casual investment.
After all, he was just a pirate, not worth Roger's worry.
This is just a way of planting a seed.
Plant more rice seedlings and sow more seeds. If one of them succeeds, you will make a lot of money.
The key lies in the situation of Kuroshio City.
It can also be regarded as a pilot project conducted by Rogge.
In fact, Rogge had no intention of spreading the faith of the Lord of the Black Tide in the Swamp of Corruption at first.
After all, this is the base of the extraordinary people, and the extraordinary people and those who believe in gods have always been at odds with each other.
Besides, he himself is such a person, so he can understand the thoughts of the extraordinary people.
If it were him, he wouldn't believe it either.
So his initial thought was to avoid trouble and just do his own thing.
But later, after learning about the situation of the Swamp of Corruption, Rogge saw this possibility.
The family's monopoly on extraordinary knowledge is malignant.
The lower-class groups have no room for upward mobility at all, class mobility is seriously insufficient, and social contradictions are extremely sharp, yet they are forcibly covered up by extraordinary forces.
If it were modern society, it would have collapsed long ago.
But in the mysterious world with powerful single bodies, this is not the case.
Once the lower-class people rebel, they will be met with bloody suppression by supernatural forces, and they will have no chance to stand out or the power to resist.
From another perspective, this is an excellent place to spread faith.
However, Rogge did not intend to use those gods' almost brainwashing methods.
After he learned about the power of faith, he thought that harvesting the power of faith in a similar way to "trading" might not be a bad idea.
After all, it is possible for fanatics and even followers to emerge.
Magrela has confirmed this.
The people on the island do not have a fanatical worship of the Lord of the Black Tide, but they can provide considerable power of faith.
Roger felt a little strange at first, but then he realized something.
Faith—perhaps not superstition.
Perhaps, like mythological figures, occupying an important position in someone's mind can also be considered a measure of the piety of faith...
But this is just his guess.
For more details, we will need to wait and see what happens next in Kuroshio City.
One ball a day!
