Chapter 658 Ancient Guardian Demon (Twenty)
[Main quest completed]
When Feng Bujue unlocked the metal treasure chest with [Pirate's Golden Key], the system prompt sounded; the [Go downstream, find and open the pirate's treasure] in the task bar was also ticked off.
"Well... let me see..." Brother Jue opened the lid of the box with both hands, and read with a happy face, "Wow... there are quite a lot..." After a quick glance, he raised his head and said loudly, "Are they all here?"
"Yes." King Dian Ni continued in a rather depressed tone, "I have moved all the high-quality items in this script that you can take away into this box... a total of six equipment, four consumables, one other item, and two skill cards." When it said this, it hesitated for a moment before adding, "That other item is what I called...'the treasure in the pirate world'."
"Hmm? Could it be one_piece?" Feng Bujue said, and then lowered his head to search in the box.
"I don't know what you are talking about..." King Dian Ning replied, "The treasure I am referring to is..."
"Oh...it's this." Feng Bujue interrupted him and took out a large silver-plated wine glass from the box.
[Name: Blackbeard's Skull]
[Type: Other]
[Quality: Legend]
[Special Effect: Open Blackbeard's Treasure]
[Note: Some people say that after Blackbeard's head was cut off, it swam around the "Adventure" for many times, and then disappeared forever in the depths of the sea. Others say that Lieutenant Maynard hung the severed head on the mast of the warship and brought it back to Virginia. A week later, they boiled Blackbeard's head, wrapped it in silver foil and made it into a wine glass, which was sent to the tavern for people to use. Until one day, a group of people who coveted Blackbeard's treasure but had no clues set their sights on this silver-plated pirate head... not long after. It mysteriously disappeared on the east coast of the United States, and there has been no news since then...】
When Jue picked up the wine glass, he waved to his teammates to come over and watch, so they all saw the item description.
"Well... although the quality is legendary, it feels like... there are many things that people can't understand..." Buu said after reading it.
Orb also responded: "Yes, it says that it can open Blackbeard's treasure, but it doesn't say where the treasure is specifically... and I don't quite understand what is said in the notes... What 'Adventure', 'Lieutenant Maynard'..."
"Humph... It's really too ignorant!" Feng Bujue suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "You don't even know the basics of the basics! Are you still pirates like this?"
"Sorry! Captain! I'm sorry to disappoint you!" Buu and Orb replied almost in unison, and both showed a look of shame.
"Hey - why are you apologizing! You are not pirates in the first place!" Xiao Tan was shocked when he saw this. "Also... why did the name change from 'Kaku-sensei' to 'Captain'?"
"Uh... yes..." Buu said in a somewhat dull tone.
Oub wiped the sweat from his temples with his hand and laughed dryly: "Haha... Because Teacher Jue was so imposing, I couldn't help but..."
"Listen carefully! You guys!" Feng Bujue on the side looked like he hadn't finished the play yet. He continued the previous topic and said as if teaching, "Blackbeard, Edward Teach... is a villain among villains, a pirate among pirates. From the moment he stepped on the Queen Anne's Revenge, in less than two years, he became famous in the seven seas and was feared by everyone. But... after a short period of glory, it was destruction. In the end, under the siege of two British naval warships, Blackbeard was eliminated... 'Adventure' was the name of the pirate ship he boarded before his death, and 'Lieutenant Maynard' was the man who led the soldiers to surround and kill him."
He paused for a moment and continued: "Actually. Strictly speaking, the real cause of Blackbeard's death was... a hangover. In that battle... if he was sober enough, the navy would have no chance in front of him. Unfortunately... there is no if in this world." There was some regret in his eyes. He sighed and said, "After the battle... the soldiers found a total of 25 knife wounds and five gunshot wounds on Blackbeard's body... This madman fought to the last moment as if he was possessed by Dian Wei."
Speaking of this, he put on a mysterious look again: "After the fierce battle, Maynard ordered Blackbeard's head to be chopped off and the body thrown into the sea to feed the sharks. Since then, the legend about the head has spread... and the more famous version is the two mentioned in the notes of this item." He paused, deliberately lowered his voice and continued, "It is said that... the Royal Navy searched Blackbeard's fleet, but only found 145 bags of cocoa beans, 11 barrels of wine, 1 barrel of indigo and 1 bag of cotton; no gold, silver, jewelry, or treasure maps...
Along with Blackbeard's death, the whereabouts of the large amount of treasure he plundered are also unknown. Just as he said before his death-only the devil and I can find the location of the treasure."
"Wow~ so awesome~" Xiao Tan, Buu and Orb all looked at Jue Ge with admiration, nodded and sighed in unison.
At some point, the three of them had already sat down... and they were sitting on the ground with their knees hugged, surrounding Jue Ge.
"If you don't know, you might think we are in a kindergarten class..." Xiao Lingxu narrowed his eyes and looked at the four male players in front of him helplessly.
"Alas... Which kindergarten teacher would tell the kids this..." Ruoyu shook her head.
She didn't know this... Feng Bujue told similar stories to some children when he was a volunteer. Of course... As a result, he successfully joined many organizations (including law enforcement agencies, social welfare agencies, etc.) institutions, and some non-profit organizations).
"Is the story time over?" At this time, King Dian Tuan's voice sounded again, "Crazy Bujue, I have shown my 'sincerity', it's time for you to show your stance, right?"
"Haha...what's the rush? I have one more thing to ask you." Brother Jue replied with a smile.
"After the transaction is completed, I will naturally tell you everything about 'that orb'." King Dien Tuan continued, "But not now... You haven't agreed to anything yet, how can I..."
"I know~ I know..." Feng Bujue interrupted the other party, "That's not what I want to ask." As he said this, he winked and gestured to his teammates, instructing them to quickly take out the things in the box. "What I want to ask is... after reaching an agreement with you, can we still clear the level?" He spread his hands and said, "You should also know... the main mission we have left, that is, The first main line of this script - [Looking for 'my' bones] is undoubtedly a mission aimed at you and will lead us to eliminate you. If we become a team with you, wouldn't it conflict with the clearance conditions? Yet?"
"You can rest assured." King Dien Tuan replied, "As long as you follow my instructions, you can follow the 'hidden plot' process to pass the level, and the main mission will change."
"Oh? Such a good thing?" Feng Bujue raised his eyebrows, "Okay then, I will give up the deal with Brother Zun and form an alliance with you."
"Uh... Teacher Jue, you don't have the spirit of contract..." Buu, who was standing not far away, couldn't stand it anymore and said bluntly.
"Brother Jue, you are so ungrateful..." Xiao Tan also said.
"What are you talking about!" Feng Bujue turned around and replied with a wink, "I'll take care of you if something happens."
When the teammates saw this, they all understood - Brother Jue had his own concerns. So, no one said anything more.
Anyway...if something really happened, it would be Feng Bujue who offended someone (the boss-level NPC in the main universe). Those who are such lords and kings...if they want to seek revenge, they should seek revenge on him.
"Then, let's sign the contract." A few seconds later, King Dian Tuan's voice started to speak again.
At the same time, a white light flashed, and a piece of parchment appeared out of thin air and fell in front of Brother Jue.
"Huh?" Feng Bujue picked up the piece of paper and muttered, "Are you going to turn me into a magical girl...or are you going to give me a geass or something..."
"It's just to provide insurance for our transaction..." King Dianyuan replied, "One minute ago, you could betray Zhuanjie Master, and one minute later, you can also betray me... We are all smart people, I believe ...You can understand." (To be continued...)
