I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones
Page 257
For the next ten days, they will live on the flagship and be in charge of pilotage.
"Don't talk too much, I don't want to see Miko grabbing a live fish and eating it directly when she got off the boat."
Calamus carried her extra-long knife on her back, reminding Lu Budao.
During these five days, Lu Jian not only tried the red fleshy fish, but also tried to eat raw meat in ugly shells, and raw tentacles of mollusk creatures full of tentacles.
It made the sailors wait for the harvest that Laika would bring back from fishing in the water every night.
"I find it strange that you don't eat raw food."
Lu Jian didn't expect that one day he, an outsider, would tell these people in Hedao that seafood can be eaten raw.
"But I can understand, if there are plants like wasabi or wasabi, with soy sauce"
He thought, it might be because this world doesn't have this kind of seasoning that can complement seafood, but when he was in Song Island before, although those things might not be real food, Lu Yi remembered that he should have seen sashimi and the like.
Perhaps those are delicacies that can only be enjoyed by literati and refined guests.
"Master Miko, we are going on a very long voyage, I hope you can give us enough trust."
When the journey started again, in the captain's cabin, Iris spoke to Kohaku again.
"I trust you."
Amber nodded.
"You have sworn the oath of the spirit of speech, you will protect me to Hedao, won't you?"
The indifference on her body has become a little heavier, and she is colder than the girl who can stroke Laika's belly that Lu Jian saw under the moon before.
"Yes."
Calamus replied.
"So, I hope you can trust me, Miko-sama, because maybe under certain circumstances, I will do something that you think will hurt you, but don't worry, it's just to protect you."
"What situation are you referring to?"
Amber frowned slightly.
"I don't know, but you must know that some people don't want you to reach He Island successfully, and the next section of the road is the most dangerous section."
Calamus shook his head.
"I trust you."
Amber glanced at Lu Trip.
"You can always trust me."
Lu Bian added a sentence.
The girl's eyebrows and eyes twitched slightly, and Lu Jian didn't know whether it was to hold back a smile or feel that it was not worth mentioning.
Leaving from the captain's room, Lu Jian was a little curious.
"Sister, have you already obtained some information?"
Big sister head is the unified name of calamus by mercenaries. Although she is more than one head shorter than Lu Juan, the aura she exudes is genuine.
At least, she must have killed someone with her own hands.
"This trip is not easy. On the dock just now, several dock workers are not fit for heavy physical work. They are obviously not real workers. They are here to inquire about information. Maybe someone has already sneaked onto the ship."
"Even the sailors on this ship may have been bribed. Only the people on the island are the ones who really protect Miko-sama. Now that they are leaving, some people are about to move."
"Don't think it's impossible. What Miko-sama is facing is not a simple political enemy, but the few nobles who are currently in power."
"If the situation is not good, we may be in a position to be framed. They will disguise themselves as pirates and mercenaries and cooperate with each other to kill Miko-sama."
Calamus simply analyzed.
"In this case, why do we accept this order?"
Lu Bian asked.
This is similar to the whole world wanting Amber to die, but Calamus still accepted the commission, and didn't even leave the place where he could escape at the end.
"Because I think I can win."
Calamus smiled.
"If we win, then we will have the full support of Miko-sama, and we won't have to drift on the sea anymore, and we can have our own mansion and land on the island. For this reason, I think we can take a gamble."
To be honest, Lu Jian didn't quite understand this.
He himself didn't mention it because of the mission. If Lu Lian was really a mercenary and this mission was in front of his eyes, then Lu Lian probably would not take it rashly.
Too dangerous.
Even if the mission is successful, you may not be able to get those favors, and these favors are not worth risking your life in Lu Jian's opinion.
These words of Calamus are more like a reason for Lu Jian.
It seems reasonable, but it doesn't really make sense.
At least Lu Jie confirmed that she should not be the chosen one for the invasion.
Anyway, Laika told him so.
Lu Jian was able to see through the appearance of the intruder when he was in Ponapei Island in the original world, but he was not sure whether he could see through the disguise of the Chosen One from other gods in the foreign land.
At least he hasn't seen any murlocs, bandaged men, or four-eyed boys so far.
night.
Lu Jian did not carry out late-night barbecues on this boat.
He secretly ate alone.
"The fish here seem to be thinner, maybe there is nothing to eat."
As usual, Lu Juan threw the fish head to Laika, took two bites himself, and sighed.
The sea shimmered under the moonlight. After leaving Narcissus Island, the fog on the sea increased.
This fog made Lu Lian a little ptsd, but fortunately, it was just ordinary sea fog, with a damp and salty smell, which made people who were not used to it sick.
Lu Jian could only eat two more bites.
Halfway through the meal, Lu Yi felt as if he saw a figure.
He threw the fish to Laika, wiped his hands, stood up, and followed the figure.
This person seemed to be one of Huber's guards, and he walked towards the depths of the cabin a little stiffly.
Lu Jian followed him far away, relying on the vision of [True Vision] to catch his traces.
The lower level of the cabin is a warehouse, which contains food and water. If you want to poison, it is the best place here.
Lu Jian saw the man swaying and walked to the depths of the warehouse as if he had drunk wine.
Here, in a place where few people usually come, Lu Jian saw a bright red magic circle drawn on the dry wooden floor, surrounded by tiny words, like the spell of Hejima that Lu Juan had seen before. .
The guard suddenly fell to his knees with a plop, and took out a statue from his arms.
Lu Jian saw that the idol had a hideous face, a fat body, and a big mouth opened in its abdomen, exuding a disgusting aura.
The moment he took out the statue, Lu Jian also smelled a stench.
The guard placed the statue in the center of the circle.
Then start praying.
Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!
===331.【The Statue of the Kind Heavenly Father】(Monthly ticket plus update!)===
When the guard began to pray, Lu Jian clearly heard some kind of ravings from a foreign land resounding in the warehouse.
However, although these voices were annoying, they didn't cause any pain or confusion in Lu Jian's head.
Compared with the ravings in [The Wisdom of Fools] I heard before, these are just like pediatrics.
"Could it be that my resistance is too high?"
Lu Jian thought to himself.
If we start from this point, then the evil god represented by the idol worshiped by this guard does not seem to be that dangerous.
Above the bloody magic circle, some kind of green smoke filled the air.
The smoke seemed to have its own will, spreading towards the water and food in the warehouse.
Even Lu Yi could think that once infected by the smoke, there would definitely be problems with the food and water.
On a long voyage, when logistics go wrong, despair and confusion are sure to follow.
Lu Jian saw that the two bags of ingredients near the magic circle were infected by the green smoke and swelled a little, and a bucket of water was also drilled in by the smoke, which seemed to make the sound of bubbles.
But the smoke didn't continue to spread, it was only contaminated by this point.
The guard worshiped the magic circle for a while, put away the statue, and was about to leave.
Lu Juan hit him on the back of the head with a crowbar decisively, and the guard passed out completely.
He first moved out the two bags of contaminated food and the bucket of water, and when he opened the bag of food, he smelled a rancid smell.
And the bucket of water was also filled with green algae, emitting a foul smell.
After just a few casual sniffs, Lu Jian felt grass growing in his nose and throat, which seemed to be eroded.
"Can you transmit diseases and erosion effects through this magic circle?"
Lu Jian put these aside and prepared to throw them into the sea later.
Obviously, this guard was either controlled, or bewitched, or was originally a bad thing. He received instructions from some unexplainable guys to cause chaos on the ship, and the final result must be Amber's life.
In this case......
Lu Jian took out the statue, observed it carefully, and found it very familiar.
He looked through [Silent Department Store], but couldn't find the corresponding one.
