Chapter 1361: Counting
A new world, a sea shrouded in purple mist.
Dark clouds covered the sky, and a purplish-black fog was spreading across the sea.
Hundreds of kilometers of space felt eerie and lifeless.
*Sk-r-r-r*
The sound of wooden planks rubbing against each other suddenly came from the fog. A ghost ship with tattered sails and moss-covered plants floated silently up to the water.
— What do we do now? A woman's voice came from the ghost ship.
The woman was lying on the rail of the ghost ship, her hands clasped behind her head.
— It's cold, " said a slightly subdued voice with a cold note. The speaker was a man with a metal mask on his face.
It was Kutu and Duck. They joined forces to complete an extremely difficult side mission. With this quest, Kutu's reputation surpassed Su Xiao's by more than 5,000 points.
Just when Kutu thought that victory was already in his pocket, Su Xiao delivered a fatal blow at him.
— I think you'll remember this day for a long time, " said the Duck, and looked at Coote lying on the deck.
— Let her out. Perhaps she has a way out, " Kutu said with obvious reluctance, but he seemed to have no other choice.
The Duck's eyes closed and opened a moment later.
She immediately sat down on the crossbar.
— She's very displeased, " said the Duck in a soft tone.
— You know all about it. We have a chance?
— There's no chance. Go to hell, ha-ha-ha-ha, " and the Duck suddenly laughed.
— What nonsense is that.
Kutu had a headache because of her behavior.
The duck obviously didn't give way to its other side.
— It seems... We have a way out, but the risks are very high, " the Duck's tone suddenly softened.
Hearing that pleasant voice, Kutu's eyes lit up.
— What should I do? Kutu asked and sighed, feeling very tired.
— Kill me, and then you'll have a lot more reputation than this guy, " Duck's voice suddenly changed after saying that. "It's still me. Did you really believe it? The duck smiled shamelessly, but Kutu didn't notice that it was actually very tired.
— Kutu, don't forget that I control two-thirds of this body. Although she is the main personality, she suffers from severe post-traumatic stress disorder. If I don't control her memories, your Duck will die very quickly.
— … — Kutu leaned against the side of the boat and relaxed. This time... He almost died.
— Kutu, don't mind her, she has a bad temper, " the Duck's voice became soft again, and Kutu only glanced at her briefly, clearly not going to believe her words.
— She's really gone this time, " said the Duck, and smiled guiltily.
Kutu sighed and started to say something...
— Did you really believe me?" Hey silly Captain, I'm a Duck, nice to meet you...
Under the Duck's laughter, Kutu snapped his fingers and drowned out the surrounding sounds.
— Get lost.
The duck lay back on the crossbar. She suppressed the tender Duck and didn't let it take over her body.
The Brazen Duck was responsible for fighting and killing. Her hands are covered in blood and she acted on impulse, but she wasn't inhumane.
The cute side of the Duck was responsible for communication, helping the group make plans, and so on.
She was a very friendly and sweet girl.
As long as one person controlled the body, it was not very dangerous, but as soon as two people took control at once, it became a real devil.
When her strength and rational approach came together, the Duck began to see only two types of people: the living or the dead.
She didn't mind turning every living thing she saw into a corpse.

In the middle of a vast starry sky.
Several shooting stars streaked across the sky.
Su Xiao, Bubtni, and Amu were in the middle of this space.
Under normal circumstances, Su Xiao should have returned to Paradise right away, but because he was ranked first on the top pirate list, he needed to wait for this world to close.
He took out his watch and turned it on. The mechanism inside this watch immediately started working at high speed, while producing a unique melody..
There were four hands on the clock: hour, minute, second, and millisecond, and right now, almost every moment, the minute hand shifted to the side, while the second and millisecond hands were still in place.
Time in this place has been sped up. No, I should have said that in this place the time was measured in minutes.
Time was actually harder to understand than space. Fortunately, Su Xiao was a warrior, so he didn't need to dig into such things. Among the ten scientists who tried to understand such things, nine out of ten ended up going bald.
Time passed very quickly. It had only been a few minutes for Su Xiao, but contractors were already beginning to appear in the sky around him.
Mask, Iron Tank, Poison Python, and many lone wolves that met Su Xiao on the 21 islands were teleported to this starry sky.
In addition to them, the fifth-rank contractors Kutu and Utka were soon teleported to this place...
Kutu looked around at the many fourth-rank contractors. He was clearly looking for someone, but unfortunately, he never found his target.
— Over there, " said the Duck, and nodded to the side. At this moment, her tone was very gentle.
She had met Su Xiao before.
When their eyes met, Kutu, who was wearing a metal mask, nodded in greeting. Although he didn't manage to take first place, their competition was fair. As a fifth-rank contractor, he had seen a lot, and he was well aware that it was not a shame to lose, but to shout about something after losing-yes.
The mask gnashed its teeth and looked at Su Xiao. When Su Xiao shifted his gaze to her, the Mask turned its head away and pretended that nothing had happened.
— Little kitty, are you afraid of getting beaten up again? Poison Python asked. He was always reserved, but that didn't mean he was weak. In the tavern, he almost killed Barbat in a matter of seconds. The two large soul crystals that Lazo threw to Barbat eventually fell into his hands.
He became one of those who won that fight on 21 islands.
— If you have the guts, fight him one - on-one. This guy is probably a tank, " the Mask replied and snorted.
Of course, she didn't mention the fact that she was almost beaten up.
At this moment, a notification from Paradise appeared in front of everyone.
