Chapter 14 The Sea that Makes People Yearn For

"Fountain of Youth? Can you really be young forever if you drink it?" Donna asked curiously with her eyes wide open.

She didn't have any expectations, because she was still young enough.

Elland didn't answer right away, forked a piece of fried murloc side rib, bit into it and swallowed it, and then sipped a little Sonia's blood wine.

"The sweet taste completely dilutes the greasy taste of frying..." He half-closed his eyes, acting like a gourmet.

After thinking about it for a few seconds, he slowly answered Tang Na's question:

"I don't know if there is a 'Fountain of Immortality', nor can I confirm whether the 'King of Immortality' Agaritu drank from its spring water, I only know one thing, that is, when I was very young, I heard To the legend of this pirate king, it is as if 'Lord of the Five Seas' Nast seems to live forever."

"Their beards must be very, very long, exceeding their chest!" Denton expressed his opinion.

"In fact, Nast, the 'King of the Five Seas', with a beard reaching just below his neck, sat on the deck in a gorgeous robe with a black background and silver border, and a crown of pinnacles twice as high as his head, just like Looking down at everything around me like a god..." Elland's tone gradually became low, as if he had fallen into the quagmire of memories, and it was difficult to break free.

"Uncle Captain, have you seen the 'King of the Five Seas'?" Tang Na asked excitedly.

This is the most legendary pirate, his name is popular in the sea, even the children in the port city are familiar with it.

Entire generations have grown up hearing stories about him!

In a sense, in the perception of many people, Nast is equal to the real pirate king... I remember that one of the promotion conditions for the "Dark Emperor" is to link his name with the title of "Emperor", go deep into the In the hearts of the people... Is this an attempt at the elementary version and crude version? I don't know when the "King of the Five Seas" has reached the sequence... Although Klein focused on tasting the fried murloc meat, he was still aroused by everyone's topic.

Facing Donna's question, Elland sighed and said:

"At that time, I was still very young, and I was still serving on the William V. Once, our fleet tried to cross the Scourge Channel in the Stormy Sea, and encountered the Black Emperor there.

"During those few minutes, everyone including the captain of the fleet lost the will to resist. Fortunately, Nast did not order to attack us."

"It's cool!" the boy Denton praised with bright eyes.

Ireland did not continue this topic,

Smiled and said:

"As for the 'Undead King' Agaturi, I haven't actually seen him. I only know that he is a pale middle-aged man on the reward order. How pale is he? Let me give you an easy-to-understand example, like death A corpse that has just begun to decompose for a while."

When Donna and Denton heard this metaphor, they subconsciously glanced at the battered murloc corpse, and unconsciously wriggled their throats.

"Of course, the point of the reward is not the appearance, but the amount. In Loen alone, Agathuri is worth 100,000 pounds, and he has the lowest reward among the four kings." Elland changed the subject, "We Continuing with the story of treasures, the third place is "The Legacy of Solomon's Empire". In the depths of the misty sea, waiting for the opportunity to rebuild the dynasty, but five hundred years have passed, one thousand years have passed, and one thousand five hundred years have passed, but they have never appeared again."

"It is said that the 'King of the Five Seas' Nast inherited part of the Solomon Empire's inheritance. No one knows if he is the real descendant of the Black Emperor." Cecil added with great interest.

"The Misty Sea? The west coast of the Northern Continent?" Donna recalled her knowledge of geography.

"Yes." Cleves replied succinctly.

To the west of the North Continent is the Misty Sea, to the east is the Sunya Sea, to the south is the Wild Sea, and to the north is the North Sea. ocean".

The Kingdom of Loen is backed by the Hornages Mountains and the inland Inter-sea, bordered by the Sunya Sea to the east, and the Disi Bay to the south, occupying several excellent sea outlets to the "Sea of ​​Fury", but it does not involve the fog ocean.

"Is that so..." Tang Na was not interested in the treasure that was too far away, and asked instead, "Where is the fourth treasure?"

"That belonged to Trunsost, the last empire of the Fourth Era. It is rumored that they built a huge ship equivalent to a city, and transferred all their treasures and wealth to it. It is ridiculous that their escape failed. In effect, none of the intended passengers and crew arrived in port in time, and none survived.

"However, the ship disappeared by itself. To this day, people still often claim that they saw the huge ship passing by silently on a foggy night. Su Yahai, huh, this is summed up from those stories." Elland looked up at the red moon high in the sky, with a bit of sarcasm in his tone, but also hidden yearning that could not be concealed.

"Maybe tomorrow night, no, tonight, we'll see it drive by!" Donna imagined with anticipation and excitement.

Klein packed up the remaining food, drank lipstick tea, and listened with interest to Elland's description of the remaining treasures:

"The fifth is 'Lost Newnes'. It is rumored that there is a civilization of intelligent creatures in the misty seabed. Navigators and adventurers in that sea area often find some strange items, which point to ancient times. Newnes, but the members of this civilization have never appeared, and they seem to have disappeared from this world long ago." Elland drank the remaining Sonia blood wine and said, "That is a legacy left by a civilization , the richness is absolutely unimaginable.”

Elland paused for two seconds, put down his wine glass, and laughed:

"Actually, the treasure I most yearn for, and which is more actual than legendary, is the 'Sunken Laurel'. More than a hundred years ago, it was loaded with gold jewels and various valuables obtained by the Kingdom from East Balam. The waterway sank somewhere in the Mad Sea and the Sonia Sea, and it has not been discovered until today.

"It is said that the items on it are worth several million pounds in total!"

"A few million pounds?" Donna blurted out the figure in astonishment.

As the daughter of a merchant, and having received education for several years, she has a vague understanding of what this number represents.

In Loen, a millionaire is an absolute rich man, second only to the top rich aristocrats!

How many millions of pounds? Mrs. Mary, who let me join the Craig Club for free, is a member of the Royal Air Pollution Investigation Committee and a major shareholder of Coym Company. Her net worth is only tens of thousands of pounds. Even so, she is rich enough in the circle of nobles and businessmen. , is a very popular divorced lady, and some noble children even proposed to marry her... Klein quickly found a comparison partner.

Alan sighed with a smile on the corner of his mouth:

"If I can find the 'Sunken Laurel', then I will no longer be the captain, I will go to Backlund, I will become a philanthropist, I will buy land, donate to political parties, and get a hereditary title!"

I heard from Talim that a lord, that is, the title of a baron costs about 300,000 pounds, and a baron is about 800,000 pounds... If you salvage the treasure, a viscount, or even an earl, is conceivable... a few hundred Ten thousand pounds! Klein helped the other party complete the plan in his heart.

"If it were me, I wouldn't do this, I would buy a big manor." Cecil also began to imagine his life after harvesting the treasure, "I would hire many servants and helpers, grow large tracts of wheat, build vineyards, Specially brewing wine for yourself... Also, a large room that can be exposed to the sun, leisurely activities of cattle, sheep and horses, bread from the home mill, beautiful scenery like a painting..."

Elland laughed aloud:

"Ma'am, do you know how much such a manor is worth?"

"No, I don't know." Cecil shook his head.

"It's only a few thousand pounds. As long as you salvage the 'Sunken Laurel', you can buy a thousand similar manors!" Elland explained the value of the treasure with specific figures.

A thousand manors? Cecil couldn't help but picked up the cup and drank the lipstick tea.

Before that, she knew that a few million pounds was a lot of money, but she didn't expect it to be so much!

In order to ease the shock in her heart, she looked at Cleves:

"Boss, if you found the Sunken Laurel, what would you buy, no, what kind of life would you live?"

Cleves was silent for a while and said:

"Go home, hug my wife and kids and tell them I don't have to venture out to sea anymore."

Not bad guy... Klein nodded slightly.

Donna looked at him curiously:

"Uncle Adventurer, what about you?"

Klein replied blankly:

"Tell yourself, don't sleep anymore, wake up quickly."

Pfft... Donna spouted out the sweet iced tea she had just drank. Fortunately, the fried fish on the table had already been eaten.

At this moment, Klein sighed in his heart:

Although I know that it is basically impossible to find the treasure, otherwise so many powerful people from the major churches would have completed it long ago, but when discussing the corresponding topic just now, I couldn't help feeling a little excited. This is the charm of the treasure! Even if it is just a legend, it can attract many adventurers!

Donna wiped her mouth and sat down like a lady, as if she wasn't the one who lost her composure just now.

The little boy Denton asked with a lot of interest:

"Are there any other treasure legends?"

Elland looked at Cleves, motioning for him to answer.

Cleves drank the lipstick tea unhurriedly, and said in a low tone:

"The legends of treasures in the sea are endless, such as the hidden settlement of elves, the pirate ship lost in the depths of the mist, the underwater city where powerful monsters are sealed, the last secret treasure of Emperor Roselle, etc., etc."

ah? The emperor has reached the level of leaving treasure legends for others... If it is true, will there be a card of blasphemy in it? How many will there be? By the way, the previous legend of the "Death Key" may help Mr. Ards recover more memories, and I will write to him later... Klein thought curiously and expectantly.
