Chapter 41 Going to the End of the World
……
72° north latitude, Greenland Sea.
Under the dark night, the big white boat slowly cut across the water, rippling ripples behind it.
This is already within the Arctic Circle. If it is not summer, only icebreakers can move on.
The "Fantasy Dragon" cruise ship is a large passenger luxury cruise ship.Although some of its configurations are not as good as those giant-class icebreakers, it is more than enough for sailing on the Arctic waterway in summer.
It is only the end of June now, and some ice floes have not completely melted away.After all, on the Arctic waterway, the most suitable season for sailing is September.
In a year, the highest ocean temperature in the northern hemisphere is in August, and it will take some time before the ice floes melt, so September is the most suitable month for sailing.
But that's not a problem for this ship.
The huge ship "Dragon of Imagination" was built by the boss behind the scenes with huge sums of money, and it was not completely completed until January this year.A heavy water nuclear reactor was directly added to provide endless power for the ship.The hardest alloys are used for that thick shell armor.
The most advanced technology is used inside to maintain the operation of this giant ship.
Although it is not as good as some military-grade giants, it is far superior to other giant wheels in terms of performance.
The ship has 9 floors up and down, more than 30 meters high, six of which are luxury cabins, these cabins can be full of 1200 tourists, plus almost 1000 crew members and service personnel, it can be said that it is a ship floating on the Arctic Ocean. small city.
However, since the ship has just been launched, not many people know its name.Now there are only 300 tourists on this ship at most.
Compared with the numerous crew members and service personnel, it seemed a bit deserted.
Old Tang is one of these more than 300 tourists.
Old Tang didn't expect that he would actually take on this task.
When he first saw the specific content of this mission, he even wondered if the viewer had a brain problem, the kind that needed to see a doctor.
That audience actually wanted to find the legendary Avalon, the land of eternity, the land guarded by elves, and the island of life and death.
What's more special is to go to the Arctic Ocean to find it.
Avalon (Avalon) is a holy land in Celtic mythology, the central belief of the ancient Druid religion, and another name for Welsh Paradise. It is related to Tirnano in Irish mythology, the golden apple holy garden in Greek mythology The Garden of Eden in Jewish mythology is very similar.Avalon is the final habitat of King Arthur in the legend of King Arthur. It is the paradise in the other world, where it is guarded by nine fairy queens.
According to legend, Avalon is surrounded by swamps, woods and mist, and can only be reached by boat.In the legend of King Arthur, Avalon symbolizes the afterlife and the place after death. It is a mysterious paradise in the other world, guarded by nine fairy queens who are good at magic.
When King Arthur was betrayed and killed by Mordred, his nephew and illegitimate son Mordred, who was born with Morgan (also said to be Morgauss), Morgan, one of the nine fairy queens, and the other two witches and sisters His body was brought in a black boat and buried here.
Strangely, Morgan, who has been an enemy of King Arthur for a long time, sent him to Avalon Island to recuperate when King Arthur was dying, and became one of King Arthur's guardians.
The forest outside Avalon Lake is guarded by the Green Knight of the Lake Demoness, preventing ordinary people from intruding into the territory of the Avalon Holy Land. Once an intruder is found, the Green Knight will kill without mercy.In the lake of Avalon lived a group of proud and beautiful lake witches, and Vivienne was their leader.In Irish myths and legends, the fairy Morgan is regarded as the goddess of the Trinity. Since the Celts regard "three" as a sacred number, three three makes nine, and the number is expanded to nine to guard the safety of the Paradise together. Wen's magic furnace, and led by the fairy Morgan to rule Avalon, the legendary island of the dead.
Judging from Avalon's description, it can't be located in the Arctic Ocean.
Even the high price of 1000 million US dollars offered by the employer could not impress him, and he even wanted the employer to use the money to heal his brain.
He is more interested in those strange and chaotic things, and he also wants to take on tasks related to this type.But there's no need to accompany a crazy lunatic for a trip!
If you want to find Avalon, go to the Mediterranean Sea!
Just when Old Tang wanted to refuse without hesitation.
The other party suddenly sent another message. It was an oil painting with a line of words.
The painting showed an isolated island on the sea as a mausoleum, and a small boat was carrying the dead towards this dark final destination.The whole picture is shrouded in heavy darkness. The bright stone houses on the island and the towering dark cypress trees form a strong chiaroscuro contrast; the mourners in white mourning clothes standing on the boats add to the eerie feeling against the dark background.This is a mysterious place of death, creepy.
Old Tang is not interested in art. If he has knowledge about painting, he will find that this oil painting is the "Island of the Dead" painted by the famous Swiss symbolist painter Arnold Böcklin.
There is also a line of words below this weird painting, the font is distorted, just like flowing blood:
[Have you heard of... the Nibelungen? 】
Old Tang shivered and rubbed the goose bumps on his arms.
This weird painting, coupled with that weird text, looks awkward no matter how you look at it.
In addition to this weird horror, Old Tang actually felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.It's like... I met you somewhere before...
But how could Avalon in Celtic mythology get involved with Nibelungen in Nordic mythology?
Nibelungen, originated from Nilfheim (Nibelheim) in ancient Norse, means "the country of the dead" or "the country of fog" in Norse mythology.Medieval German called the people who lived there "Nibelung" (plural "Niebelungen"), people who lived in the "land of fog".
It matches the name of the island of the dead in Avalon very well.
Could it be that the kingdom of the dead is still playing tricks?
Old Tang dispelled the uneasiness in his heart by complaining.
It was also because of these that he suddenly lost his mind, not sure whether he should take on this task or not.
His intuition told him that if he followed, he would see something beyond imagination.
"..." Old Tang was silent for a long time.
The person on the other side didn't seem to care much, and had been waiting quietly.
"I'm going to continue, but how do I go to the Greenland sea? I'm so poor that I need to eat dirt." In the end, Old Tang agreed.
"It doesn't matter, I will provide you with a ticket for a luxury cruise ship, free food and lodging, and a reward of 1000 million."
Old Tang was shamefully moved.
He had never been on a luxury cruise like that in his life.
"I will provide you with a ticket for the 'Dragon of Imagination', which is a journey to the end of the world."
