I was forced to be the captain of the ghost ship by mistake

Quechua Mountains, the main peak of Whiskey Mountain.

Among the gleaming ruins of the city of gold, there is only a man with a stooped back like a little old man sitting on a stone table and stool with a chess set.

He sat here with peace of mind, holding a book handed down from the last century of the Incasso Empire in his hand.

Similar books are inexhaustible in this treasure house, and there are many records about that empire in the treasure house. It takes a long time to sort out the knowledge of that ancient and advanced empire by relying on personal wisdom alone.

Frankly speaking, Aesop Andersen really liked the job entrusted to him by the ontology.

It is completely in line with his lazy personality at this stage, and he doesn't need to do anything, just sit here and prevent dangerous elements from entering.

These days, except for the expedition team from the Northern Continent who wandered around the mountain for a long time and took away the divided materials and treasures, no extraordinary person could approach this mountain.

In addition to the chess ban that guards the main peak, it also has the blessing of the Rosicrucian Society. The other party has issued a clear order in the extraordinary realm. Anyone who dares to break into this land will be killed without mercy regardless of their status.

It can be regarded as a wake-up call to the extraordinary powerhouses of the Southern Continent, don't touch things that shouldn't be touched, and kill a few extraordinary people who don't obey orders to make an example.

Now naturally there will be no more uninterested guys breaking in.

"Huh, this is it?"

When Aesop Andersen was browsing books from the library, he suddenly noticed that there were several bookcases in the library, and the classics on them obviously showed traces of being read by others.

That was definitely not what Tu Fu flipped.

Their memories are common. When He came in, he just casually checked the weapons in the city, and the ruins looked at the "Golden Bell" in the center of the city.

In the end, just to be on the safe side, only a few insignificant classical books were brought out.

That area is the historical snow area of ​​Ingaso, and it is also the most important part of the library materials.

"The classics of the City of Gold have been read by someone."

Aesop frowned unconsciously. Some of the materials were not placed in their original positions. It seemed that they were pulled out too hastily, so that they didn't even have the time to put them back.

Aesop suddenly had a very bad premonition.

He calmed down and quickly stepped forward to check the books that had been flipped through. There were quite a lot of things. It seemed that the visitors came in and out in a hurry, and left without having time to sort them out.

Also the counter was covered in a layer of dust, which doesn't seem like a recent occurrence.

Aesop Andersen turned on the hunter's senses belatedly. A pair of indifferent eyes looked at the traces around the area, muttering what might have happened:
"It seems that someone has indeed come here, long before I arrived, and he is definitely a strong person with strong strength, who was able to break into this place by force.

Based on these hints inside, the visitor presumably has learned some truth about the demise of the capital,
That is, the secret of 'Luna'. "

Perhaps because of the terrible chess ban, the momentum of never giving up until the intruders are driven away, the opponent still didn't dare to stay here for too long, and after a general understanding of some things, he left the place hastily. …

Aesop frowned on his very ordinary appearance, and simply activated the two abilities of "Hunter Sense" and "Hawkeye Eye" at the same time, and used them together to search for traces in the ruins.

After being promoted to a demigod, the development power of these two simple transcendental abilities acquired in the early stage is no longer the same.

Now you can see through prohibitions and complex traps with just a glance.

His dark eyes shone with a faint gleam.

At a glance, I can see a large number of strange runes floating around the mountain range, especially near the ruins, where the power of the "chess" prohibition covers the entire mountain range.

As long as there is an unknown person, the chess army made by those weird rune cultures will swarm up and act as a ban.

similar to,
Santa Maria

"A strange rune that causes the "Crimson Eye" to sleep.

But that power didn't come from Captain Arthur, a god was involved.

During Aesop Andersen's spying, he actually saw many figures coming and going in this huge ruins. They were building and transporting utensils back and forth, doing all kinds of hard work diligently, and they seemed to be the craftsmen who built this place in the first place.

Those things that happened in the past appeared before His eyes again.

"what."

What Aesop really noticed was that after those figures disappeared, another figure appeared. He walked straight to the golden clock, leaving something on the side of the big clock.

I saw that the side of the golden clock flickered strangely, and a string of words appeared beside the platform of the big clock. Aesop remembered that the big clock hadn't changed in any way when he observed it last time.

"Some kind of protection mechanism?"

Aesop Andersen's expression was constantly changing to guess the truth. This arrangement seemed to be only aimed at transcendental beings at the demigod level.

"I came here, and I will carry my mission to the final place."

On the side of the big clock stand is a string of characters written in ancient Assyrian script. Presumably the intruders are inseparable from the Assyrian Empire at that time.

"Hoo~"

Aesop Andersen stared at the string of unknown handwriting, and let out a long breath.

In fact, these many clues are enough to restore the facts:

"Having come to the Southern Continent once, and the Southern Continent after it has been destroyed, the strength is naturally extremely powerful, and this statement is written in Assyrian.

He is the only one who meets all the requirements! "

In the conversation with the "Gatekeeper" before, Aesop Andersen learned one thing, except that Captain Arthur visited the Southern Continent very early,
Many years later, another person set foot on this land.

The young "Lionheart King" also came here before he became king.

Combined with the text of the golden bell, the identity of the comer has almost been locked.

"That is to say, the Lionheart King obtained incredible information from the Ingaso ruins a long time ago." Aesop's brows became more and more wrinkled, and they were almost glued together.

The ways of destruction of the two countries lead to the same goal,
It's hard not to let people guess the role of the Lionheart, who already knows everything, in this.

……

At the same time, on the magnificent Weddell polar sea.

The well-known "Demon Hunter" sailed through the wind and waves all the way, and the ships passing by saw the pirate flag, so they deliberately avoided it very sensiblely, and then lowered the flag of the ship. …

This means bowing his head, which also means paying tribute.

Victor Horta belonged to the well-known group of "Seven Wuhai" at sea, and he never committed burning, killing and looting on the territory.

Even if they earn money, they will collect taxes from the countries in the polar regions, and then eat the dividends from some countries in the Northern Continent within the Pirate Alliance. The money is enough to support the forces below.

And because of his leadership, there are very few "wild" pirates in the Polar Sea.

Therefore, most of the ships passing here will lower the flags of the forces they belong to.

This represents friendship.

Directly in front of the iron-clad giant ship, there are several old warships docked on a distant ice continent, and their flags are the combined fleet of several polar countries.

Seeing the flag of "Qiwuhai", the old warships paused for a while, and then took the initiative to raise the flag to ask them a question mark.

The flag bearer of the "Demon Hunter" also immediately stood on the high platform and raised the flag,

And clearly indicated that the adult is on board at the moment, and they need to make way quickly.

But quickly, the fleets of the polar countries that received the orders of the pirate ships immediately ordered the warships to give way to a road, so that the "Demon Hunter" could pass through this sea area dignifiedly.

Jack Sparrow habitually stood at the bow of the deck. At this time, he was wearing a pirate hat, with obvious smoky makeup on his eyes, and thick pimples on his upper and lower lips.

beard.

Just like the prototype of Captain Jack.

Facing the cold wind, he only felt that the familiar feeling had returned.

"Victor, you did a good job. I didn't expect you to become a great figure at sea."

"It all depends on your cultivation, sir. If it weren't for you, I would have died in a certain pirate struggle. How would I have my current status." Victor didn't dare to be greedy for credit, and immediately expressed his loyalty to him.

He could clearly feel that the gap between him and the other party was even bigger than it was back then when he reached Sequence 5 with a lot of resources.

Especially when he witnessed Tu Fu's strong breakthrough in front of nearly ten demigods, he was so frightened that he was so frightened that he admired the madness of the other party.

Victor respectfully lowered his body halfway, pointing to the ice continent ahead:

"My lord, ten nautical miles ahead is the polar restricted area. Are you sure where you want to go? Do you want me to confirm with Mr. Capet."

"Our hearts are connected. He naturally knows that I have come, so you don't have to do these unnecessary things." Jack Sparrow looked at the ice continent he had admired for a long time and smiled.
"What's more, I'm only close to the border of the polar region. I probably know enough about the situation there, and I won't go too deep into it."

The order that Tufu gave them back then was not to wander around the world outside, but to obtain as much effective information as possible during the period when the No. [-] body was in the Southern and Northern Continents.

Do some exploring for your final trip to the poles.

As soon as everyone came to this extremely cold sea area, the snowflakes in the sky kept falling, and the amount of snowfall became larger and larger, which added some troubles to landing on the Frost Continent.

Even Jack Sparrow didn't dare to use extraordinary power here at will. The lesson of Whiskey Hill is still vivid in his memory. In this place that obviously hides many secrets, there may be some hidden secrets. …

Seeing that you are upset and shot you out without complaint.

Fortunately, a fleet of hundreds of people, relying on powerful warships, forcibly docked at the ice continent where the polar forbidden zone is located.

The howling cold wind continued continuously, mixed with ice and snow, and slapped on the face. Except for Sparrow, the other extraordinary people felt a sharp pain.

"arrive."

Jack Sparrow jumped down from the deck tens of meters high with a smile, stepped on this long-awaited continent, and felt indescribable happiness.

Among the three phases of Tu Fu's body, only Jack Sparrow has the wildest mind, like a young adventurer who has a boundless desire to explore the world, full of energy, vitality, and yearning for everything unknown.

At this moment, coming to the land that the original owner's parents had explored, can be regarded as inheriting this last wish for the original owner.

"Slow down a little bit, you have to be careful of the aborigines on this ice continent..."

Victor Horta brought only a few trustworthy men, and followed Captain Jack in a ditzy manner, just about to tell him some precautions.

While speaking, there was a huge black shadow moving, and a monster with white fluffy hair appeared,

It looks like the rumored snow monster.

The speed of that thing was a bit too fast, flapping its left and right wings, it rushed towards him ferociously, while making a sound like a duck.

"Quack, quack~"

"Go away!"

Jack Sparrow stayed where he was, and he didn't even use his extraordinary power. In his eyes, this creature was pitifully weak, and based on the principle of not killing at will, he stopped the opponent with deterrent force.

He just made a sound, and the terrifying aura emanating from his body forcibly stopped the tall creature, and he was stunned in place.

The explosive momentum of the demigod level seemed like a miracle was approaching.

Only then did everyone see the appearance of that thing clearly. It turned out to be a huge "penguin".

Tu Fu tentatively thinks so.

Its size of nearly two meters is very huge, and its hair seems to have never been trimmed since its birth. A sharp beak is the main weapon of this giant penguin.

Fortunately, I met Captain Jack. If ordinary people don't
Prepare to be scared to death by the creatures here just by landing.

"fortunately."

Victor Horta also breathed a sigh of relief, "You must not kill this kind of 'penguins,' they have lived here for hundreds of thousands of years,
It has become the existence of the patron saint of the ice field, moving one will cause the whole group to panic. "

"Don't worry, unless it asks me to recharge Q coins? Otherwise, I won't come here to kill people indiscriminately."

Captain Jack smiled and shrugged his shoulders, making a very modern joke.

As Victor said, there are such giant long-haired penguins everywhere on the ice sheet, forming family tribes in groups of three or four.

They are bulky in shape, and the long hair on their bodies is a mutation caused by the climate here. For some reason, their eyesight is limited, and it takes a lot of effort to catch a fish in the ice cave.

But in the middle of the tribe of giant long-haired penguins, there is an eye-catching stele.

The stele is quite conspicuous on the bare ice field.

Immediately, it caught the attention of Jack Sparrow. He didn't kill the long-haired penguin just now, which made the giant penguin chatter in the group for a long time. …

After a while of communication, many giant long-haired penguins were put on guard and allowed to enter.

"Look, a stele written in Assyrian, it seems that adventurers came here as early as the last century."

Captain Jack looked at the inscription and read it flickeringly: "I came here and borrowed the power of the gods to go to the final place."

"This is?" Victor, who didn't know why, glanced at it several times.

"I told you to read more books a long time ago, so I will not listen to you."

Jack Sparrow looked indifferent, "The Lionheart's handwriting."

"It is said that He came to the polar region twice, before becoming the king of the Assyrian Empire, and came to this place again in his later years when he was looking for longevity."

Of course, this is the version people know.

So far, no one knows why the famous emperor took the risk to go to sea.

Jack "The Lionheart's handwriting." Sparrow waved his palm slowly, and subconsciously used the demigod ability "River of Time". After closing and opening his eyes,

Various time periods in the past when the body floated lightly in this place.

Five hundred years or one thousand years ago, many deeds happened at the same location,
Passing by Him one by one like a movie.

at last,

Time stopped at the moment when that person put this string of handwriting here for the reference of those who came later.

Has been promoted to Sequence 1 Destiny Giant, only half a step away from the legendary "Lionheart King" at the true god level.

But at that time, He was already very old, and he stubbornly dragged his scarred body to this ice continent, and knelt down to a certain direction on the ice sheet with the people under his hands.

All these are just to go to the "final place" on the stone tablet.

Captain Jack Sparrow's ability didn't last long. After the Lionheart went to the depths of the 'Polar Region' alone, he couldn't see anything.

He can only guess wildly based on the information he already has.

"At this time, the Lionheart King had already unified the kingdoms of the Northern Continent. I'm afraid he already knew about the existence of the 'Moon God' from the Southern Continent. Since He came to the polar regions in his later years,
It must be to borrow the power here to avoid the destruction of the Assyrian Empire. "

Regrettably, no matter Ingaso or Arthur civilization,

In the end, they couldn't escape the end of destruction.

……

"Santa Maria", the captain's room.

"It's a wonderful story, and I'm nothing compared to your life."

Tu Fu let out a long breath depressed: "But since the Pole has all the answers so far, why can't you tell me everything now."

"Why not."

An indifferent male voice came from the other end of the radio: "I can tell you right now

Outer Gods, and the truth about the moon.

But this decision is in your hands, once you go to the poles, there is no turning back. "

That solemn voice didn't seem to be joking.

In fact, "The Lionheart" never joked with people.

"Okay, then I won't ask, in fact, I'm not that interested in these."

Tu Fu was well aware of the importance of going to the end, and there was a tremor in his voice: "Your Majesty, I actually don't care what the world will be like after I die.

I don't even have much interest in those boring secrets. The more I know the truth about this world, the more I struggle and suffer.

So it’s best not to let me know anything. "

The other end of the radio was very often silent, and he never expected his mental state to be so depressed.

"I don't want to think about those things right now.

Can you think of a way for me and help me solve the trouble of not being able to perceive external emotions, otherwise, if this continues, I will definitely go crazy and die before going to the polar regions. "

Tu Fu held his head and begged weakly.

"Can."

"Really? What should I do?"

The answer given by the Lionheart King is concise and clear enough,
There is one and only one simple vocabulary:
"Anchors."
