“At that time, I had just joined the cleansing agency not long after, and then I was incorporated into a scientific expedition team with the purpose of exploring the sea of ​​silence. I didn’t know what this was for at the time, but now it seems that it should be for the future Merlin went to the end of the world to pave the way… Although it all failed in the end.”

Under the sound of crash-bang rain, Burlau started his own account.

The sky outside the porthole has been completely gloomy, here is the edge of the storm, but still thunder and lightning, as if the end is coming.

Lorenzo did not feel depressed. He sniffed the cool air, which reminded him of the time in the castle. He also told Burlau and the others past stories in a similar environment. Now it has several points of similarity, except that the people who listen to the story are different from those who tell the story.

“First of all… where should I start? I’ll just talk about it wherever I think, my memory is too vague.”

Burlau knocked his head vigorously, and he also looked very upset about the vague memory.

“I was just an ordinary lower-level Knight, serving as a escort on the ship. At that time, the Chief-In-Charge of the expedition was Knight Commander Lancelot.”

“Lancelot?”

Lorenzo was slightly surprised, and the silent Blue Jade had the same expression as him, and then they all thought of the next story.

“Yes, it is precisely because the previous Lancelot died in the sea of ​​silence, that Orvis can become the next Lancelot… but this is also the next thing.

This operation is very important, and for this reason, the team was led by a Knight Commander and used the most advanced steam ironclad ship ‘Horna’.

In the beginning, the expedition went smoothly. The narwhal was simply a fortress on the sea. When sailing to the countries of Viking, we encountered many Viking pirates. From the perspective of the time point, the King of Ice and Sea was still Just a pirate leader, Viking has more than one civil war, and Viking pirates also plunder at will.

They attacked us, but you also know that under the advanced steam and steel, their wooden long boats are like a group of ridiculous ants, run over by us mercilessly. “

Burlau shook the head with a smile.

Compared with other ships, the Viking long ship is very petite, but it has a shallow draft, fast speed, and can turn flexibly. It is mainly aimed at rapid coastal plunder rather than sudden attacks on the sea.

“It was almost the same as it is now. It was raining heavily, which blurred the sea. They probably only saw the shadow of our ship and the lights on it, thinking we were a lost cargo ship and so on, and then rushed over.

I don’t know what the feelings of those Vikings were at the time. Anyway, the long Viking ship was engulfed by the waves and smashed on the solid iron armor. Those Vikings were swallowed by the raging waves before they could roar in battle, and some cursed angrily. We hacked the hull with a battle axe, but only a shallow scratch was left.

It was a simple victory. We didn’t even fire the cannon. We defeated most of them by the strength of the hull and the heavy rain. “

Burlau seemed to think of something, and said again.

“Part of the Viking survived that naval battle. They publicized our deeds. Within a few months, the Vikings knew that there was such a thing as an armored ship in the world. They were fighting in the northern islands. After a long time, they have completely derailed from the world. Some people even think that our appearance has led to the unity of the Viking nations. After all, the faith of Odin is no longer able to rule the sea. The real masters of all this are steel and artillery.”

The old age fades and a new age comes.

“After that, we successfully reached the Viking kingdoms. At that time, they were not unified, and each island was controlled by different lords. They were fighting each other before, and it was really troublesome to die. Fortunately, we showed Enough military force, they respect us, plus the wealth and materials brought from Irvine to open the way, these Vikings are more enthusiastic.

Actually, Viking is pretty good. I thought they would hate us, but they looked indifferent. When we mentioned the pirates we killed, they laughed and said that they just returned to Heroic Spirit Hall. That’s all, this is a good thing. It’s a strange group of people. What’s even more strange is that Viking pulled me at that night and asked me to kowtow with Odin Divine Idol, saying that we can be brother together. “

The memories gradually become clear, and Burlau’s expression can’t help but become a lot more strange thinking about it here.

“We took a break for a while, and then asked these Vikings about Jihai, and this time these carefree Vikings became serious. They kept silent and did not mention a word about Jihai, no matter how we spent money They also refused to say that after paying a great price, we slightly moved one of their mouths.

The guy said that the sea of ​​silence is a forbidden Sea Territory. The reason why it is silent is that there is something undisturbed under this sea. It is so terrifying that there is nothing in this Sea Territory. Fish do not even exist in strong winds and waves, and some only have an almost eternal silence. “

“So it’s called Jihai?” Lorenzo said indifferently.

“It has many names, the land of silence, the sea of ​​death, the domain of storms and silence, and Viking called it the kingdom of the dead, which is the kingdom of the dead in their mythology, but the specifics of that kingdom Located under the sea of ​​silence, inside the dark seabed, they believe that all the people who die on the sea, their bodies will be entrapped by the sea current, and transported to the dark seabed to obtain eternal silence.

Of course, the silence of the Silent Sea is also relative. Once a ship enters the Silent Sea, then you’d better pray that you will not make any noises and disturb anything. Once you make a sound, you will be sleeping in the Silent Sea. If something is found below, then a storm will be rolled up above the sea of ​​silence, and you and your ship will be destroyed in lightning and thunder. “

“What is that ‘thing’?” Lorenzo asked.

“I don’t know, and no one knows. Maybe someone has faced it, but those people are dead.”

“In short, the carefree Viking can be afraid of being awed like this. Even if we have advanced technology, we have to take it seriously. Another problem is that the reason why we contacted Viking is to find a sea of ​​silence. The navigator who understands, takes us there, but in this case, no one Viking is willing to help, even if we take out all the materials and money, it’s impossible to them. In their opinion, there is an absolutely dark place , Once they die there, they will be swallowed by darkness. Even the valkyrie cannot save their souls from the darkness. They can only wander in the dark seabed and never reach the sacred Heroic Spirit Hall.”

“Then no one at the cleansing agency knows this?”

“It’s gone for a long time. The first time we went to the end of the world was in the middle of Glorious War. It was several decades ago, and because of the situation, Irvine gained knowledge at any cost. It can be said that it was completely filled with human lives. The surviving returnees also contracted diseases one after another and died one by one. The only thing left was the Victoria’s home we are familiar with, and they were also troubled by the curse.”

“Knowledge is cursed. Some people don’t want more people to know the existence at the end of the world.” Lorenzo said.

“Almost, it seems that most of the weird and mysterious in this world are traceable,” Burlau said. “They are all protecting something, a person, a character, or a Secret.”

“Unfortunately, people themselves have many things that do not know whether to be called virtue or inferiority, such as intellectual curiosity, curiosity, and adventurous spirit. These things drive us to touch those that should not be touched. Something…”

Burlau whispered.

“We finally got some useful clues. Those Vikings said we can go to Lord Wilgardson. He is a lonely and strange lord. Unlike other lords who are keen on plunder, he is more devoted to sailing. He is young. He traveled through the entire Viking countries by boat. It is said that he has the most complete charts of the Viking countries in his hands.

In the following time, he drove away from the Viking countries and wandered on every Sea Territory in the Western world, but he was not satisfied with it, because he knew his charts and not perfect. “

“Silence Sea.” Lorenzo whispered.

“Lord Frocky Wilgderson, Viking inside was the first Viking who launched a long voyage towards the Sea of ​​Silence and returned alive, but his voyage seemed to have an accident. Most of his crew died. And his chart is still incomplete. Some people say that he was cursed by the sea, but he did not obey the curse, but continued to challenge Jihai.”

“We who took the place set sail to find Lord Frocky Wilgardson. Everything went well. The lord received us friendly and had a meeting in his longhouse. For the first time, I learned about the detailed information about Jihai.

The legend of Viking is correct. Under the sea of ​​silence is the kingdom of the dead, but this is somewhat misunderstanding. It is not so much the kingdom of the dead as it is… the kingdom of Demon. “

The ear-piercing thunder fell, and the pale light penetrated the sky and the earth, and everyone in the cabin was reflected pale in their cheeks. Inside the moist air, the unknown and strange were slowly fermenting.

Lorenzo’s gaze was a little dull, and then he was released from it with great joy.

Yes, that’s it. There are no so-called gods or demons. In this world, there are just one unknown mystery after another, and they are cursed by the plague called erosion, when you realize its existence , Then it proves that you are not far from the truth.

“Go on, Burlau.”

Lorenzo sat upright, listening carefully.
