Chapter 604 Diary

Chapter 604 Diary

Think about it, even if you only go to the safest area shown on the navigation chart, the wealth you can get is worth the wealth you can get from four or five Raging Flame Planes!

How amazing this is…

Now, all this wealth is beckoning to Lin Yun.

Putting away the largest navigation chart, Lin Yun was in a very good mood and rarely laughed out loud.

Step out of this room filled with nautical charts.

Not long after, he found the first mate's study room, which was covered with dust and the bookshelves were filled with books, but Lin Yun sighed with regret.

He released a little magic power to drive the wind element, and when the breeze blew, all the books were shattered into dust.

These ordinary papers have no magic protection at all. If they are placed outside and good preservation methods are used, they may still be saved. But this is the Dauntless, and the corrosion of time has already turned these books into ashes.

Think about it, the study of the first mate of the Intrepid, the first person under the red beard, must have extremely high value, but it is a pity that they were all destroyed.

A strong wind spell was cast, and the dust was blown away through the window, but suddenly, Lin Yun was slightly startled and strode to a bookshelf.

There were originally seven to eight hundred books stored on this bookshelf, but now they were all reduced to dust. However, on the penultimate floor, in an inconspicuous corner, there was a book with a cowhide cover that was intact!

Lin Yun frowned slightly and released a magic detection. The detection results showed no abnormalities.

This is just an ordinary book.

Picking up the book, I found that there seemed to be a thin secret compartment hidden behind the book. I had to crack this simple mechanism. There is a necklace inside.

An ordinary-looking necklace, an ordinary necklace forged from mithril. A ruby ​​is set underneath.

The moment he touched the red gem, Lin Yun's expression changed instantly.

powerful. Extremely powerful magic!

This ruby ​​actually contains a kind of magic power that makes Lin Yun feel frightened!

But the magic detection couldn't detect it at all!

After trying it out, it turns out that the magic power inside this ruby ​​is very stable, and there seems to be an obstacle that prevents even contact with it, let alone extracting the magic power inside.

After looking at it for a while, Lin Yun frowned and put down the necklace first, then picked up the book with a cowhide cover. The book was very simple and exquisitely made, and was thirty centimeters long. There was only a simple rune mark on the cover, and Lin Yun didn't understand what this rune mark meant.

After turning the first page, Lin Yun showed a very surprised expression.

This is actually a diary!

"Leng Yue, the 13th. Today, I finally became a sailor. I no longer have to sleep in a dirty slave cabin. I also met the captain..."

Lin Yun flipped through more than a dozen pages, all of which were trivial matters written down by the owner of the diary as a sailor.

By the time it reaches page twenty-five. Lin Yun suddenly stopped.

"The Moon of Fire, the 28th. Today was originally a good day. It took a month. I finally killed the cunning sky-level sea beast. But who would have thought that the moment the sky-level sea beast died? . Something terrible happened suddenly,

A huge whirlpool appeared on the sea. This whirlpool is so terrifying that you can barely see the edge. It was as if the entire ocean had turned into a whirlpool. That was the first time I saw the captain, who was wise and calm and didn't care about fighting against the sky-level sea beasts. He showed a look of horror and ordered us to escape from this big whirlpool immediately as if he was crazy. .

Even the corpses of the sky-level sea beasts were thrown away by the captain without hesitation before they could be brought on board. Everyone could see that the captain's heart was already occupied by fear. Poor captain John fell. Ship, I also saw that terrible whirlpool, which swallowed John up in the blink of an eye..."

Lin Yun looked at this page of the diary and could even see the scrawled handwriting. He saw how scared the owner of the diary was at that time. His hands were shaking when he was writing the diary.

Big whirlpool...

Immediately, Lin Yun remembered the biggest danger mark on the largest nautical chart. It was also a very sloppy whirlpool mark. On the chart, which strives to be delicate and accurate, this mark was incompatible with other marks. You can see , when the mark was made, the man was filled with fear.

There is even a blood-red cross on the maelstrom mark. That huge sea area is a place that even the Dreadnaught must not approach.

After thinking for a moment, he turned back to the next page.

"Moon of Fire, 29th, today, I heard that George in the kitchen died. He seemed to have choked to death on a piece of bread he ate. He really deserved it. We were working hard to survive, and this damn bastard was actually eating... "

When scrolling back, there is no pop-up window.

"On the 30th day of the Moon of Fire, this idiot Byron, as the most agile thief, fell to his death from the second floor. Damn it..."

Lin Yun continued to turn back and found that every page contained similar content. Someone died every day. He turned over more than twenty pages in a row...

"On the 23rd of the Meiyu month, damn, people died again. It's so terrible. There was a rumor circulating on the ship. Hunting the sky-level sea beasts angered the terrible existence. Something evil came on the ship. People died every day. Not just low-level sailors and slaves, but a captain died today..."

Lin Yun frowned and turned back quickly. He flipped through dozens of pages. All of them contained this kind of information. However, the owner of the diary went from being indifferent at first to becoming more and more fearful. Even the date when he wrote the diary was intermittent. .

Suddenly, Lin Yun stopped, his eyes became solemn, and he looked at the new page carefully. Again, the handwriting on this page was very illegible, and the owner of the diary's hands were shaking and he was very scared.

"Frost Moon, on the 18th, everyone had a rest. I went to clean the cabin and met a scary thing. With one look from it, I couldn't move. It asked me if I wanted to be the most powerful person on the ship. How could I possibly believe that the most powerful person was not Captain Redbeard? Then he asked me if I would like to become the most powerful person under Captain Redbeard...

Is it kidding? I'm just an ordinary sailor. I'm too scared. I agreed. I don't want to die. I really don't want to die. It said it would help me, but the price is to do one thing for it in the future. I can only Agreed, damn captain, if he hadn't asked me to clean the cabin at night, I wouldn't have encountered this thing. It must be that evil thing. All people died at night, damn captain, He must want to harm me, I must kill him..."

After turning back a few pages, there was nothing of value. After turning eight pages...

"Shuangyue, the 30th, today is the day of competition on the ship. I challenged the squad leader to a duel, and then I regretted it...

I thought I was dead, but I didn't expect that I actually killed the squad leader. I won and became the new squad leader..."

When Lin Yun saw this, he immediately thought of the unkillable monster.

Turning back again, there is nothing special. The owner of this diary has begun to climb all the way. Whether it is level or position, the promotion speed is very fast. It can be said that he is taken care of by the goddess of luck. It is not the boss who is fighting. Death in battle means he made a breakthrough in battle.

Turning to the penultimate page, the owner of the diary was promoted to first mate, and gained Redbeard's trust.

"Is this the protagonist in the legend?" Lin Yun was dumbfounded when he saw this. The owner of this diary really has the potential to be a protagonist. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is possessed by the God of Luck. The entire rise process It was incredibly smooth, as if everything had been arranged, just waiting for him to sit in the first officer's seat...

However, when Lin Yun turned to the last page, he immediately changed his mind...

There is only one sentence on the last page: "It came to me and asked me to betray the captain..."

After turning back, only a broken half page was left, and only some incomplete words could be seen on it.

"I don't want to betray the captain, and I don't dare to go against it. No, no, I have to find a way to deal with it. I can't become a puppet. I heard..."

"Huh?" After reading these incomplete words, Lin Yun suddenly realized that there seemed to be only half of the diary in his hand, and the other half seemed to have been torn off...

"Wait, what is this..." Just when he was about to put the diary down, Lin Yun's eyes stopped on the last page. A subtle red mark caught Lin Yun's attention.

Lin Yun carefully stretched out his hand, trying to wipe away the slight red mark, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Lin Yun knew something was wrong. This was not a tiny red mark, it was a red beard!

Yes, Redbeard!

"The remaining half of the diary must have been taken away by Red Beard!"

Yes, that must be the case...

Thinking again about what the first mate left on the design drawing, if I die, give the things in my room to the captain. Based on this alone, Lin Yun can be sure that the first mate must have found some clues related to the monster. , and put these clues in the other half of the diary...

However, that half of the diary was taken away by Red Beard...

It seems that we have to go to the captain's cabin...

Lin Yun slowly closed the diary. As soon as he walked out of the study, he saw off duty walking over from a distance.

"Off-duty, did you find anything useful?"

Off duty scratched his head and answered cautiously.

"Lord Merlin, I found nothing. They are all ruins..."

Lin Yun shook his head.

"Forget it, if we don't find it, let's get out of here."

After hearing Lin Yun's words, Off-duty looked curious and asked.

"Lord Merlin, have you found anything useful?"

Lin Yun looked at the diary in his hand and replied casually: "I found something."
