Chapter 1235 Unknown Place
--Remember!
"Is there any problem with this?" Jeremy looked a little confused. If he was asking about the sea area, there were some core secrets of the Jindu Kingdom, or it was related to the interests of the Jindu Kingdom, then what about the personal interests of the Jindu Kingdom? The eyes should show wariness and maybe even hostility. --/--/But now, the other party's eyes only contained ridicule, which made Jeremy and even herself feel like an idiot.
The noble of Jindu Kingdom who was asked by Jeremy also seemed to feel that his behavior was a bit inappropriate. He quickly returned to his normal expression, but he did not answer Jeremy's question, but with a few words. Mysterious, he said: "Prince Jeremiah, I think you'd better not know about that place. I'll go there first, and I'll introduce a few more friends to you later."
Looking at the nobleman leaving with the wine glass, Jeremy always felt that he seemed to be running away, which actually aroused his curiosity even more. The nobleman's performance made him feel that the other party was not unable to say, but unwilling to say it. So what was there in that sea area that the people of Jindu Kingdom were unwilling to mention?
Of course, Jeremy would not give up just like that. After the noble of Jindu Kingdom left, he turned his attention to other people in the party, constantly recalling the identities of the people he had just met in his mind. Feeling that one of them had a similar identity to the one just now and might know something about that sea area, he went up to chat for a few words and finally led the topic to that sea area.
In normal times, as the prince of Leding Kingdom, Jeremy would do it. He would be very popular at such a gathering, and everyone would be eager to chat with him for a while. But this time, Jeremy was really ignored at this party. As soon as he brought up the topic of that sea area, the other party would make an excuse and leave within a few words. Better. In other words, he was reminded not to attack that sea area. There is the slightest bit of curiosity.
This situation made Jeremy a little crazy. Seeing that he couldn't ask anything at the party, he simply went to the organizer of the party to say goodbye, and planned to find some more important people to ask.
The person who organized this gathering was Perot, the son of Jefferson, the Sea Secretary of the Kingdom of Jindu. He also held an important position on the King's ace fleet, the First Fleet, of the Kingdom of Jindu. Despite his status. It can't be compared with Contoli, Fox or Delano, but it can be said to be the best among the younger generation.
"Prince Jeremiah, why are you leaving so early? Has anyone offended you? I am also going to introduce a few friends to you." Hearing that Prince Jeremiah was about to say goodbye and leave, Perot immediately Somewhat puzzled, he thought some blind guy had offended his distinguished guest.
I just asked about the mysterious sea area. Jeremy also asked Perot, but all he got was a reminder. Hearing Perot's question at this time, Jeremy shook his head and said: "No, it was nothing. But when everyone heard me asking about that sea area, it was as if they had seen a ghost. This is true. It makes me even more curious. You all know, but I don’t know. I am becoming a fool here. What would you think if it were you? I have no intention of attending the party, so I came to say goodbye to you in advance, so as not to It affects the atmosphere here.”
Of course, Jeremy's statement was a bit exaggerated. In fact, even among the nobles at the party, not everyone knew about the sea area he was asking about. And even if they all know it, it doesn't mean they have the obligation to answer. Jeremy is somewhat unreasonable.
However, after listening to Jeremiah's explanation, Perot did not think much about other aspects. Instead, he showed a look of confusion on his face. He hesitated for a long time before saying: "Prince Jeremiah, since you want to know , then let’s go over there and talk. However, before I tell you, I have to kindly remind you again, and I hope your curiosity will end here.”
"Haha, I'm kidding. I just don't want to be here. I'm the only one in the dark. Even if there are any shocking treasures in that sea area, I still have to have a boat to go there." Seeing that Pero finally planned to tell himself the answer Jeremy seemed to be in a better mood, joking as he walked towards the corner of the hall.
Moreover, what Jeremy said is true. With the level of sailing in the Riding Kingdom, it is already quite difficult to successfully come to the Kingdom of Jindu to participate in the celebration, let alone go on a sea adventure.
The two came to a quiet place. Perot took a sip of the red wine in the glass, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Shocking treasure? Prince Jeremiah, I have to say that your imagination is too great." It’s rich. Unfortunately, there are no treasures there. The reason why everyone is reluctant to mention that sea area is not because they deliberately want to hide something from you. In fact, that sea area is really an ominous place for our Kingdom of Jindu. Earth."
"Ominous place?" This was indeed a bit beyond Jeremy's expectations. He originally thought that if the core secrets of the Jindu Kingdom were not hidden there, it would be a place that could bring great benefits to the Jindu Kingdom. At the worst, it might be a gathering place for some terrifying ocean monsters. Therefore, these Jindu Kingdom’s Talents refuse to tell themselves.
However, the people of Jindu Kingdom call that sea area an ominous place. In addition to the huge dangers there, it also shows that they themselves are full of unknowns about that sea area. Otherwise, they wouldn't have to say anything ominous in a vague way. They could tell clearly what kind of ocean monsters or dangers there were.
"Yes, then Prince Jeremy, are you still interested in continuing to listen?" Perot gently swayed the red wine in the glass and looked at Jeremy with a smile in his eyes.
To be honest, under normal circumstances, Jeremy would really have no interest in listening to it. There are a lot of legends about such ominous places in the Anriel continent, and there is nothing rare about them at all. However, although Jeremy lost interest in the so-called ominous place, he was very interested in the navigation chart of the Kingdom of Jindu in Lin Li's hand, so he had no interest at all. Also find out clearly.
"Of course, there's nothing wrong anyway. Just tell me what's going on in this so-called ominous place." Jeremy sat down on the chair next to him. He acted like he was all ears, as if he would continue to listen even if Perot talked for three days and three nights.
If you see Jeremy, you must listen. Perot had no choice but to shrug his shoulders and sit down on the chair opposite. Putting the wine glass on the table, he said: "Actually, don't blame them for not telling you. They may only know that it is called an ominous place, but they don't know more about the inside story. And I, too I heard my father tell me about things there, otherwise I wouldn't be able to tell you much. Strictly speaking, the ominous place does not refer to that sea area, but to an island in that sea area. "
"An island?" Jeremy remembered clearly that the sea area was very vast when he saw it on the sea map from Lin Li's place. Such a large sea area has actually become a restricted area because of an island. It can be seen that this so-called ominousness is not as simple as just talking.
"Yes, that is a cursed island. It was once the territory of my Kingdom of Jindu. Although the area is not as vast as Four Seasons Island, it is also one of the largest islands among the many islands in the kingdom. Just because it is located in the north, the island The environment is relatively harsh, and it was originally used as a penal colony for criminals in the kingdom." It must have been a long time since the island was mentioned, and Perot spoke very slowly. It was as if he was recalling relevant information while talking.
Although for the continent of Anriel, especially during the Dark Ages, the Kingdom of Jindu is almost the only pure land in the world of Anriel. However, the Kingdom of Jindu is also made up of human beings, and humans have various desires. Naturally, there are inevitably people who violate the laws of the kingdom because of this. Therefore, it is not surprising at all that the Kingdom of Jindu has such a place of exile used to exile criminals.
Jeremiah didn't talk anymore, but quietly listened to Perot continue to talk about how an island used to exile criminals turned into the ominous place it is now. Of course, he no longer thought about the treasure. He just wanted to imprint every word Perot said in his mind so that he could go back and report to Lin Li.
Perot did not intend to tell Jeremy a long story. After briefly introducing the past situation of the ominous island, he quickly got to the point and said: "Those criminals mined minerals on the island to atone for their sins. , but it is said that just thousands of years ago, probably in the late period of the so-called Dark Ages in your Anriel continent, some criminals unexpectedly discovered some magic items containing powerful magic when they were mining minerals."
"The news spread quickly within the kingdom. However, the kingdom did not take it seriously at first. They only thought that the criminals were playing some tricks. On the contrary, adventurers from all over the world, not only adventurers from our country, but also A large number of adventurers from Anriel Continent and even sea tribes from the depths of the ocean are flocking to that island."
Although Jeremy was listening carefully, he actually felt very bored. But when he heard Pero say that powerful magic items were found on the island, he suddenly became energetic again and quickly asked: "Really?" Well, are there any ancient ruins there?"
Fortunately, Jeremy had been listening attentively from the beginning, so the sudden excitement did not make Perot feel anything strange. Perot slowly picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and then continued: "Those people believe that there may be relics of the Titans on that island that have been passed down from the prehistoric era. Therefore, that desolate island also suddenly The place became lively, and during that period, countless ships sailed towards the island."
"What about your Kingdom of Jindu? Are you going to let them explore that island?" Jeremy was a little anxious for the Kingdom of Jindu and didn't even bother to think about how that island became a cursed and ominous place.
"Haha, do you think those people can get anything on the island?" Perot smiled, seeming to feel ridiculous about the madness of those people at that time, and then said: "No, they can't get anything, from that After the news came out, everyone who landed on that island, no matter how big the adventure group was, no matter how powerful they were, all ended up losing their lives on that island."
"That's right, anyone can explore the ancient ruins. Let's talk about me. I personally explored the Sky City of the Immortal King. The experience was a narrow escape." What Jeremy is most proud of now is Explore the Sky City experience for yourself. Although he himself was basically an insignificant role in that exploration, he still made it to the end, completed the exploration mission, and brought back the crown of the High Elf Queen.
Hearing Jeremy's show off, Perot immediately showed a very interested expression on his face and said: "It turns out that Prince Jeremy also participated in the exploration of the Sky City. I know that the Sky City of the Immortal King, It is said to be the most powerful of the seven sky cities of the high elves. Why don't you tell me about your experience exploring the sky cities."
Although Jeremy wanted to show off, she still knew what was more important to her, so she waved her hand and said, "Don't change the subject. I will tell you this later. You should continue talking about that ominous place." It’s something about UU reading www.uukanshu.net ”
"Okay," Pero nodded helplessly, drank the remaining wine in the glass, and then continued: "They are all dead, even several adventurers who were very famous in Jindu Kingdom at that time The regiment did not escape the result of annihilation on the island. Things got worse and worse, and the kingdom could no longer remain silent, so a kingdom fleet entered the sea area and sent tens of thousands of soldiers aboard. That island. However, just when those soldiers landed on the island, a disaster suddenly struck."
Listening to what Perrault said, Jeremy couldn't help but become nervous, and felt vaguely in his heart that the reason why the place was called an ominous place seemed to be related to this disaster. However, he could not imagine what kind of disaster would turn a sea area into a restricted area and turn the island into an ominous place that has been spread in Jindu Kingdom for thousands of years.
"It was an extremely terrifying blizzard that descended on the island without warning. The kingdom's fleet had no time to react. Thousands of miles in radius instantly turned into a land of ice and snow. All the warships had no time to retreat and were captured. Frozen on the sea, the tens of thousands of soldiers who landed on the island turned into ice sculptures in the blink of an eye." When talking about this, Perot's tone was no longer as frivolous as usual, but there were not many other emotions. After all, That legend is too old. To be continued)rq
