Let's start over, Your Majesty.

Chapter 78 The Book Out of Control
A pirate ship, an enormous pirate ship, its dilapidated wooden hull covered with dense barnacles, and a pirate flag with a skull and crossbones flying from its mast. This product, which should have existed hundreds of years ago during the Age of Exploration, an antique that should have appeared in a museum, suddenly appeared in the city and crushed a villa into ruins.

"Where did this thing come from?"

Caesar had already left the villa area. He had sensed something was wrong when he saw the pirate captain enter the book, so he immediately jumped out of the window and created some distance.

The sudden change shocked the passersby, who screamed.

At the top of the pirate ship, the captain, dressed in tattered clothes and wearing a tricorn hat, leaped onto the mast, drew his sword, and pointed it to the sky:
"Raise the sails! Set sail!"

Bang.

A beam of light burst forth, and a wide sail actually rose out of thin air from the swaying mast, filled with wind. The ship rocked and, propelled by the wind, rose into the air, swaying as if it were a vessel sailing on the sea. It sounded its horn and sped towards the city center.

"A magical artifact? No, that's not right. What kind of magical artifact can possess its own will?"

The strange magical aura inside the room had disappeared with the departure of the pirate ship, but a faint groan could be heard.

Caesar ran over and saw Lawrence's mangled body still struggling slightly amidst the ruins of the villa.

But it was just a brief respite; the pierced chest and severely injured body were rapidly draining their life force.

"No, the healing spell is no longer working."

Caesar shook his head, pressed down on his shoulder, hoping to get the last piece of information from him.

What exactly is that book?

Lawrence made a few indistinct sounds in his throat:

"Seven. There are seven in total."

"what?"

Lawrence's eyes gleamed with excitement, but he couldn't express it clearly; only a lump formed in his throat.

I did something wrong.

After saying this, the light in his eyes dimmed, and the breath of life completely dissipated.

city ​​center.

"What, what is that thing?!"

My Holy Mother!

"Call the police! Call the police now! It won't help if the police come!"

The pirate ship in the sky had already attracted the attention of half the city. Even the gang members who were fighting in the alley stopped their punches and stared in disbelief at the behemoth.

"Backup! Requesting backup! An unidentified flying object has been spotted on Qingshui Avenue in the city center! No, it's not an unidentified flying object, it's a ship! A ship flying in the air! In any case, it's beyond our capabilities, get the Krall Bureau here immediately!"

Inside the police station building, the chief stared at the ship outside the window in the distance and shouted into the phone.

"Get out of here! Everyone, get out of here!"

Directly beneath the pirate ship, police officers were frantically evacuating the crowd.
Suddenly, a deafening explosion rang out in the crowd. Something struck a window of a building, sending rubble flying.

When people looked up, they saw that on the deck of the pirate ship, twenty-four cannons were already aimed at the buildings below.

The sound of artillery fire rang out, sending plumes of smoke and dust flying across the streets and buildings, followed by screams of agony.

The captain stood at the bow, beaming with pride as he held up his wooden binoculars and observed the bombing below. Behind him, on the deck, skeletal crew members, dressed in tattered sailor uniforms, were cheering, brandishing knives, guns, and cannons.

"Monsters! Begin your raids!"

The captain shouted at the crew, and at his command, the entire deck erupted in screams as they leaped from the deck, crashing onto the streets and rooftops. Unharmed, they scrambled to their feet and began attacking the panicked crowds. Some even stormed into butcher shops, clothing stores, and jewelry shops, looting them clean. Police officers on the street exchanged fire, but found their bullets utterly ineffective against these skeleton soldiers.

At the same time, several missiles flashing orange-red light flew through the air, but just before hitting the ship, they struck an invisible barrier and had no effect on the ship.

On a distant rooftop, Angeli Romer, captain of the First Squadron of the Drentin District Operations Division of the Rhinek Bureau, wearing a dark brown trench coat, lowered his binoculars and spoke gravely into the walkie-talkie:
"This is the Short-tailed Sparrow. Target contact has been made. Conventional magic weapons are ineffective. Requesting the deployment of the [Overseer]."

He paused for a moment, then continued:

"Based on the current contact, it can be confirmed that the target is the tsunami-class containment object, the Book of No Thought, which disappeared thirteen years ago."

station.

Ita was already getting drowsy, nodding his head back and forth.

"Master of the house."

Doruvan, sitting in the front seat, spoke up: "An hour and a half has passed since our arrival time."

Ita gazed out the train window at the bustling platform, pursed her lips, and a deep disappointment was clearly visible in her eyes.

Delina hesitated for a moment before saying, "Maybe he changed his itinerary? Let me check again?"

"Never mind," Ita said softly, "Let's go back."

Doruvan and Delina exchanged a glance, then started the car.
Just then, someone ran over quickly and whispered to Ita through the car window, "Master, an object has suddenly appeared in the city center and is causing serious damage!"

Ita's eyes narrowed, and his expression immediately became alert.

"Notify the Council of Elders to have all Blood Knights currently serving in Drendin City stand by!"

Caesar made a gun gesture with one hand, aimed it at the pirate ship in the sky, and with a whoosh, a pale blue light shot onto the pirate ship.

The next moment, his figure instantly appeared on the deck of the pirate ship from the rooftop.

Third-tier teleportation, spatial warp, allows teleportation within the visible range. An anchor point needs to be established at the target location before teleportation.

"There is an intruder!"

The skeleton soldiers on the deck roared and charged towards him.
Deng.

The immense pressure descended, instantly crushing all the skeleton soldiers to the ground, turning them into a pile of bones.

"Where is that book?" he shouted sharply at the captain at the bow.

"Fight me, you bastard!"

The captain shouted, leaping onto the deck, drawing his rapier, and challenging Caesar.

"Come on! If you have the guts, fight me fair and square! You traitorous idiot!"

Caesar sighed, and a longsword materialized before him.

But the captain's expression changed, and he drew his musket from his waist and fired at Caesar.

"Haha! You've been fooled! You idiot! Try this!"

Bang.

The musket bullets were stopped by a black iron shield, and a tall, heavily armored knight stood in front of Caesar, shield in hand.

The captain was taken aback, then turned around and saw that there were four heavily armored knights standing behind him.
