Treasure Hunters, Sail the Blue Sea

Chapter 148 The Drum of War About to Sound

The picture starts with an unknown shipyard.

The boat underfoot was custom built by a musician, and it took several years to make the entire boat go.

At this time she was very beautiful.

The whole body is made of gold with some other colors, like an elegant musical instrument, it looks extremely elegant and gorgeous.Pure white sails, without any color contamination.

Alka clearly saw the name of the ship on the hull.

"Musician".

Afterwards, the voyage lasted for more than ten years, and even countless grand concerts were held on this ship, and the ship gradually became famous.

until it was captured by a pirate.

The pirate redacted the word "musician" and put on a black sail.

Fortunately, the pirate and the pirate group seemed to be very interested in music.

It's just that the elegant music in the past has changed to rough sea singing.

It was renamed "Song of the Deep Sea".

After an unknown amount of time, the pirates were arrested and killed, and the ship once again fell into the hands of a certain faction's navy.

And sold it to an exploration group. In addition to changing the sails, the ship was given a new name [Sound of Chasing Dreams].

Others did not make any changes.

The ship accompanied the exploration group to grow step by step. As it grew, they also engraved a spell on the ship to make it more powerful.

Giving the ship a powerful physique.

At this time, the head of the exploration team was holding something like a harmonica.

That is, the magic item that Arka used to summon the ship.

At this time, the leader of the exploration group came to the end and got a treasure related to music.

This treasure is so consistent with the experience of the ship, the head of the exploration team also felt that the ship gave him luck.

This spell ship is also embellished with treasures, and will become a real ghost ship as it sails.

However, at this moment, the environment suddenly changed.

News of the treasure leaked out.

At this time, it seemed that the environment was very hazy, and nothing could be seen, except that something had attacked the expedition ship.

The entire regiment was completely destroyed, and the harmonica that summoned the ship did not know where it was lost.

The ghost ship, which has just enlightened wisdom but has not yet fully realized its own consciousness, began to drift alone on the sea.

Until encountering the invasion of the dark ripples, the ship had already suffered a lot of damage and suffered even more damage.

Relying on instinct, the ship docked in a safe cave, until Arka played the harmonica.

He doesn't have much self-awareness.

Just relying on instinct, he responded to the call of the harmonica.

The bubble then dims until it disappears.

The self-awareness of the ship was too weak, and the dream only lasted for a short while, allowing her to tell Alka about her life.

Arca was once again wrapped in iridescent mist.

From the changes in the environment just now, Alka can know that when the exploration group was destroyed, at least 400 years ago, there was no war.

Because at that time, the surroundings were not yet pitch black.

Until later, the ship sailed alone, and the specific sailing time is unknown.

She didn't find a safe place to stop until the darkness erupted and the ship was about to be damaged, and she couldn't hold on.

And at that time, I blew the boat for the experiment, and then woke it up again.

After understanding the context of the matter, Arka resurfaced to reality.

Once again, I saw this dilapidated ship that was almost completely destroyed.

There is a new and different feeling.

In the dream, she quickly witnessed her whole life, witnessed her from birth to growth to strength, until now she was on the verge of death.

Gently patted the mast.

"It's hard for you to survive so much after experiencing so much."

"If you want, you can sail with me in the future. I will find a way to restore you to your original state and become better. How about it?"

When Alka's voice fell, there was a beeping sound from the ship, weaving into a moving music.

After witnessing the performance of the ship in the later period, Alka could understand what she meant.

"Then it seems you agree."

A smile appeared on Alka's face.

With this soon-to-be ghost ship, restore it and start enlightening it anew with your treasures.

It won't be long before it turns into a real ghost ship.

Compared with re-enlightening by yourself, it will save a lot of time.

This is already very good.

"So it's really a ghost ship?"

Several people from Xia Daiti gathered around, looked at Alka with wide eyes and asked.

This is a legendary ship, and it was known from Lucilia.

Before that, they didn't know that ships with such autonomous consciousness existed.

Alka nodded, then shook her head again and said, "Yes, but not entirely. Her former owner was a person who possessed treasures and enlightened the ship, but when she was about to successfully enlighten it into a ghost ship, her master died , so it became what it is now.”

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

"Then he is now..." Jason asked.

Hearing Jason's words, Alka patted the mainmast, smiled and said to Jason: "You have to call her, she is a girl, be careful that she whips you with a rope again."

"Okay, okay, her."

After all, all the people who operate at sea all year round are men, so naturally they treat these ships as daughters, and they are always called girls.

When it is enlightened and has wisdom, it will naturally become her.

"She is willing to follow me now, but she has to be repaired after she goes out, and she can't be as dilapidated as she is now."

"But we are going now..." Xia Daiti reminded beside him.

"right."

Too happy, forgetting this, Alka patted his forehead.

Said to the air on board.

"We are going to do a very dangerous thing now. You find a place to hide and we will call you again after half a month. How about you come to us again then?"

There were moving tones from the ship, but a displeasure could be heard in the tones.

She seemed reluctant.

"Don't worry, it only takes half a month."

Then he said with more emphasis: "I promise."

The pitch of the music was a little low, but it picked up again at the end.

"That's fine then."

After speaking, several people jumped off the boat and returned to the deck of their own boat.

The music gradually sounded, with a touch of sadness.

Several people on board waved their hands.

Watch the ship of music disappear into the night.

"It's amazing that there are ships with autonomous consciousness." Jason couldn't help but said.

Lucilia was on Xia Daiti's shoulder, and her voice was full of excitement: "That is to say, we will have a ghost ship in the future? A real ghost ship! Haha, it's great!"

"The premise is that we can survive this time."

Julia stood by, looking at the ship sailing into the darkness and said lightly.

For a moment, everyone was silent.

……

Time flies by.

Arka emerged from the dream world once again.

He just followed the connection and flew to the two overlapping bubbles, secretly watching the situation inside.

Looking inside, his father was still repeating the behavior of beating Jack until the bubble burst.

And his father's bubble has indeed always stayed in the dream space, and it rarely breaks.

The bursting of his father's bubble should be robbing the control of his body, and he will succeed from time to time.

But the time for bubble bursting is rare and short.

Basically, it won't take long before being kicked back, and the dream bubble reappears.

As for whether the snatching was successful, you only need to look at your father's performance after Bubble reappeared.

Swearing loudly is a failed robbery, and cursing gloatingly is a successful robbery.

It also made Alka confirm that there is no problem with all of this.

He still doesn't trust his father very much, and he didn't confirm until now after observing for a long time.

After all, all my emotions for him come from memory, and I don't have any personal feelings.

The body sitting in the room opened its eyes.

Arka straightened her clothes, opened the door and entered the captain's room.

After thinking about it, he took out two stacks of cards from the ring.

out of the captain's cabin.

At this moment on the deck, everyone on the ship was communicating with each other and making final preparations.

They were already sailing to Elcott Island, and there was not much distance left, a day at most.

The day of meeting is close at hand.

It has been confirmed from church information.

All the remaining ships and crew of the Prayer for the Dead Pirates gathered around Alcott Island.

And the church is also ready to cooperate with them at any time.

It is bound to annihilate this pirate group and teach them a bloody lesson.

The Prayer for the Dead Pirates should have sensed that the church had surrounded them, but they still resolutely stayed on Alcott Island, waiting for Arka's arrival.

Sievers attached great importance to Alka beyond anyone's imagination.

But only Arka knows why.

Alka who came out handed the two stacks of cards to Xia Daiti and Jason.

"I will use it, I will leave it to you to use."

Hearing Alka's words, the two took the deck of cards in their hands.

There are all kinds of functional cards and three-color cards, which will definitely be of great help in battle.

Especially for Jason who only has one helix strength.

After thinking about it, Alka said, "Jason, when you start fighting, you must follow the church."

Jason nodded silently when he heard this.

Because Alka and the others were going to enter the interior to face the leader of the Prayer Pirates, and he followed him in a spiral, which was too dangerous.

It is safer and more reasonable to follow the church and kill pirates on the periphery.

He didn't refuse, because that's what strength is.

The gap has been pulled too big.

As for the two stacks of cards, they must have come from Alcado.

At this time, there was no treasure in Alka's ring, so he took out all the treasures and threw them into the cabin.

Everything inside is fighting, or items that can help in fighting.

Most of them are naturally all kinds of cards. This more than a month of preparation made him flick the cards from the beginning to the end, and he may not be able to finish it.

These materials were also purchased from the Church.

Everyone was communicating quietly on the deck like this, waiting for the ship to arrive at Alcott Island.

……

El Cote Island.

Prayer for the Dead Pirates, a temporary base.

A flagship and three galleons stay around, and there are many pirate speedboats.

Thousands of pirates gathered on these ships.

In addition to them, there are several pirate ships on the periphery, but it can be seen from the flags that they don't seem to belong to a team.

It has become a pirate's lair.

All ordinary pirates were drinking and carousing, waving wine bottles and machetes in their hands, singing and dancing in the dark.

It seems to want to dispel the darkness.

There is no seriousness about the battle that is about to start.

Some pirates suddenly fell to the ground under such circumstances, trembling all over.

The other pirates just laughed when they saw it, and threw him off the ship and sank into the bottom of the sea.

Only those who were touched in the Dead Prayer Pirates had ugly faces and remained silent.

Two touchers of the Dead Prayer Pirates stood on the bow of a certain pirate ship.

Silent, not knowing what to wait for, looking at the darkness ahead.

"A slave with power is still just a slave."

Hearing a sudden sentence from his companion beside him, the pirate next to him gave him a sideways glance: "It's better than being a slave without strength."

"That's right, Holy Mother bless you."

"Bless the fart, it's the Holy Mother who wants to beat you."

However, the companion next to him ignored him and still prayed with his hands crossed.

He shook his head helplessly, and suddenly asked: "Then do you regret it? Regret coming here and becoming such a pirate."

The pirate who put his hands down shook his head instead.

"Don't regret it, at least you have mastered the power, right? Although it's like a slave, what's the difference outside.

It's just that the way of being enslaved is different. "

"It's a very philosophical sentence. If you die, I will engrave this sentence on your tombstone as your epitaph."

"Haha, what about you? What do you want me to engrave on your tombstone?"

"I don't believe in the Virgin Mary, just throw me into the sea."

"Well, hopefully I'll have a chance to throw you into the ocean."

"I also hope that I have the opportunity to engrave your epitaph."

The communication between the two standing on the bow did not affect Jack on the flagship in the slightest.

"Captain, will he come?"

The old man who had been following Jack suddenly asked.

"Yes, I can already feel that he is coming towards us."

"Are you ready? I don't want to be interrupted by the church halfway."

Hearing this, the old man next to him nodded and said, "Don't worry, Captain, I'm ready, and I will definitely buy you enough time."

"That's good, you can only catch the fish you want if you put enough bait.

When I think that the pirate group I have carefully managed for so many years will be destroyed here, I can't help but laugh out loud. "

Speaking of this, Jack really showed an elegant smile on his face.

He didn't take the pirates who worked for him under his command seriously.

"You have harvested more precious things, and it is worthwhile to put more bait on the target you catch."

"But... the other you, won't you snatch your body?" The old man reminded him carefully.

If the body is robbed at this critical moment, wouldn't everything before that be in vain?
Hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Jack's face again, and he tugged at the white gloves on his hands.

"Don't worry, I'll give him a chance before the battle, and then he won't bother me anymore."

In the dream, Sievers quietly watched Jack's performance outside.

"I hope you'll be able to laugh again later."

At this time, he was no longer as angry as usual, but calm.

……

Time passed little by little.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Jack felt that the source of the blood was getting closer, and the smile on his face became more and more unstoppable.

Until at the end of the field of vision, I saw a glimmer of light in the darkness.

Arka is here.

The moment the light spot appeared, Jack's face immediately changed.

Obviously the face is still the same, but the temperament of the whole person has undergone a drastic change.

So much so that it feels like a different person.

Sievers temporarily took over the body.

"You let me out on purpose, you're such a bastard."

He said to himself, and then looked at the old man next to him: "Let that big-headed shark, I mean that hammer-headed shark, go and meet him! Remember, let him go alone."

Although the old man knew that the one who controlled his body was no longer the previous captain, he still nodded and sent the order.

The hammerhead sharkman who received the order looked ashamed. Isn't this just letting himself die?
I didn't expect that it would suddenly be my turn to be unlucky.

The other pirates around who heard this order all looked at him with pity.

Although he knew that he was facing death ahead, he still jumped into the sea.

Swim quickly towards the approaching ship.

If you don't go, you will die, but if you go, you may survive.

How to choose him is naturally very clear.

Then Sievers yelled at the pirates behind him: "Where's Andre? It's the leader of the treasure hunting team you're holding, press me up."

"Yes!"

The pirates behind him moved quickly, and within a short while, Andre, who was bound by chains, was pressed up by several toucher pirates.

At this time, Andre's right arm had been completely severed, and his body and cheeks were covered with scars, but these wounds had already healed.

Judging by his current appearance, at least he is not bad, and his life is not in danger.

When Andre was pressed in front of Sievers, Andre looked at him quietly: "Thinking about killing me?"

Sievers ignored him, but continued to the pirates behind him: "Gather the boats together for me, face the enemy sideways, and then put away the cannons for me."

"what?"

"Ah what? Do as I say if you want to survive."

"Yes, yes." The pirate quickly issued Sievers' order.

But his mind is already confused, and if he puts away the cannon when he gets together, isn't that just being beaten?
