Chapter 13 The Legend of the Treasure

On the deck, an extra layer of asbestos was placed under the grill to prevent coal sparks from being blown out by the wind and burning the deck.

The fat chef wore an apron and a white tall hat invented by Russell, and kept using a fine brush to apply the secret seasoning mixed with basil, cumin, sea salt, pepper and lemon juice to the white and tender skin. Place on long strips of fish, turning over frequently to ensure even heating on both sides.

The meat in the murloc's belly was full of fat, dripping down drop by drop, making the coals under the iron net make a whizzing sound, and flames sprang up.

The seductive fragrance gradually permeated, and Klein took one sip after another.

A round table and chairs were set up in front of him, and a bottle of uniquely shaped wine was placed on it. The color of the wine was golden red, and it seemed to be slightly viscous when shaken.

"Sonia blood wine, brewed from the special sweet wood juice of the area around Golden Spring, is like thin honey mixed with blood. It tastes sweet, but it is very easy to get drunk. If you see a lady, you want to buy her a drink , you can consider this, it will make the other party drink too much unconsciously, haha, the premise is that you have enough alcohol to bear it." Aware of Klein's scrutiny, Captain Ellan Kag introduced half-jokingly .

As expected of a former boatswain, he has the literacy for dirty jokes... Klein sat down and maintained a stern attitude:

"A good adventurer is not addicted to alcohol."

Cleves next to him nodded:

"Adventurers are only allowed to drink by themselves when they return home."

"That's a pity." Elland turned to Donna and Denton, who were curiously looking at Sonia's blood wine, and said with a smile, "This is not something that underage children should experience."

"I drank it, it's really delicious!" Tang Na immediately retorted, "It's just that I fell asleep without knowing it, and slept for a whole afternoon..."

"I remember you drank two glasses that time!" said the little gentleman Denton enviously.

Elland didn't satisfy their thirst, so he ordered the crew to give each of the siblings a cup of sweet iced tea, and explained casually:

"There are quite a few Southerners on this boat."

Denton withdrew his disappointed gaze, looked at the murloc who had taken away valuable materials, and said naively:

"Actually, actually, it's not that scary, it's just a relatively big, ugly fish with limbs!"

Donna glanced at her brother:

"congratulations,

You finally realize what it is. "

Then she looked at Cleves and Ireland eagerly:

"Uncle, uncle, are there many monsters like this in the sea?"

The murloc does not have extraordinary abilities beyond imagination. In the eyes of ordinary people, it is slightly equal to the beasts of the sea, and slightly equal to the biological prototype of legendary monsters.

Elland laughed and said:

"No, similar monsters rarely appear in the main waterway and the surrounding waters, and they have been wiped out long ago. You are lucky enough to meet a murloc and see this creature.

"Think about it, if you can often hunt monsters worth 200 pounds or more, then I will definitely not be the captain of a passenger ship. I will organize my own hunting boat and chase these gold pounds!"

Very reasonable! Klein applauded secretly.

According to his observation just now, the extraordinary material on the murloc's body should be its swim bladder, and the blue light like water makes one feel like seeing a gem.

Cleves picked up the black tea that the sailor had just brought, smelled it first, and then took a sip:

"Only if you deviate from the main channel and go deep into the ocean that is often shrouded in mist or storms, you have a high chance of encountering such a monster, but it is very dangerous.

"In addition to the murlocs who can climb and have scales, there are legends in those sea areas that there are also Naga with a human upper body and a giant python lower body. They have six arms and are very agile."

Ireland took up the subject:

"There is also a huge octopus whose spit juice can corrode many people, a terrifying sea monster that overturns a ship with a single tap, a mermaid whose song is so intoxicating that she never wants to leave, and a mermaid who can create lightning The blue dragon, the big bird with wings that can set off a hurricane, hehe, I have never seen any of these, they are all legends in the sea, no one knows if they are true or not."

The mermaid... Klein's expression didn't change.

"It's very interesting." Donna exclaimed with fascination.

Denton looked left and right, saw that Klein did not speak, and asked curiously:

"Uncle, you are also an adventurer, have you seen such a monster before?"

Klein was stunned for a moment, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up:

"I saw it once, when there were five of us, we accidentally encountered one, a murloc. After a fierce fight, we finally solved it."

This was his real experience in Tingen City, and it was also his first time facing an out-of-control official Extraordinary.

At the request of Swain, the owner of the "Dragon Bar", he and Old Neil helped eliminate a mutated "sailor".

Thinking of this incident, Klein was a little nostalgic, a little bit sad, and the coldness and sharpness on his face couldn't help but softened a lot.

"Five people?" While asking back, Tang Na secretly counted the people who participated in the battle just now.

1, 2, 3... She discovered that only three uncles had killed the murlocs before.

Before Klein could answer, Elland spoke in a little surprise:

"Accidental encounter?"

"Yes." Klein replied frankly.

"Are there any casualties?" Elland asked.

Klein shook his head and said:

"Some minor injuries."

"Accidentally met, and only five people solved a murloc... You are very good." Cleves gave his evaluation.

His partner, Cecil, also nodded his amazement.

The battle just now was short and quick, and the murloc seemed vulnerable, but she and Cleves knew very well that without the pre-prepared bait, without the hallucinogenic effect brought by peppercorns and subsequent fatigue, no mint paste would be effective against the murloc. There is no two borrowed rifles, and it is unknown how many people will have to die to kill a murloc.

"Indeed, it's amazing." Elland looked at Klein thoughtfully.

That was a team composed of four Sequence 9s and one Sequence 8... Klein half-smiled and half-sighed:

"I was very young at the time, and I hadn't even experienced any battles, just pure support."

"Uncle, you are still very young now!" Tang Na nodded her head vigorously.

I love to hear this sentence... Klein keenly noticed that Captain Ireland relaxed a lot because of what he said just now.

At this time, several crew members brought a large ceramic plate, on which was fried until golden, sprinkled with basil leaves, and the tantalizing aroma came to the nostrils.

Elland picked up the cup that was poured with Sonia's blood wine, and made a toast:

"A good night, the storm is with us!"

"Good night!" Donna and Denton cheered, each taking a sip of sweet iced tea.

Klein chose to touch the other party with a black tea cup.

He forked a piece of meat from the side of the murloc, and felt that it was firm and firm, with no fat, but after absorbing the vegetable oil, the shortcoming of being too dry was made up, and it exuded an endless aftertaste of elasticity and meaty aroma during chewing.

Sure enough, it's a bit worse than the cheek meat now, but it's good enough, better than all the fish I've eaten in Backlund and Pritz Harbor... Klein praised in satisfaction.

Erlan put down the knife and fork in his hand, took a sip of Sonia's blood wine, and sighed on the topic just now:

"In the sea, the most dangerous thing is not the monsters, but the pirates.

"They control the ships and go wherever they think, and no one can take precautions in advance."

"Uncle Captain, will we meet pirates?" Denton asked worriedly after swallowing the fried fish.

Elland smiled and said:

"The route to Rorsted Islands is the safest in the world. There are colonial islands that can dock every two or three days, and ships from the Royal Navy and the Church of Storms often patrol along the way.

"Even if a group of pirates flee here, they will not do too much. After seeing our artillery, they will at most extort some compensation."

Seeing the two underage children feel at ease, Elland added:

"But going south from the Rorsted Islands, or continuing to the east, we have to rely on the protection of the Lord.

"Many pirates are active in these areas, catching secrets with the ships of the navy and the church. If we are lucky, we will reach the southern continent very smoothly and reach every place, but if we are not lucky, we will encounter quite powerful pirates. This includes the seven pirate generals, and even the fleet of the four kings.

"However, you don't have to worry too much. Ever since Nast became the 'King of the Five Seas' and established some rules for passing through the sea, most pirates will also rob you of your money and will not do too much.

"Among them, what we are most afraid of encountering is the captain of the 'Black Tulip', 'Admiral of Hell' Ludwell, he will let his men kill all the people on board and throw these innocent people into hell, followed by ' Blood Admiral Senor, he loves blood and condones his subordinates to do all kinds of evil deeds. Many girls were raped by them and sold to different islands..."

Donna shuddered when she heard that, and subconsciously changed the subject:

"I heard, I heard that there are many treasures in the sea!"

"There are legends about treasures, but most of them are false." Elland glanced at Cleves and said, "There are the most stories, six of the most famous, and the number one is 'Death's Key. ', it is rumored that at the end of the Fourth Epoch, the god of death who caused the pale disaster was killed by the seven gods, but he did not fall on the spot. He tried to return to the southern continent. It is the legend of the origin of the Sea of ​​Violence, but in the end, he did not return to the Southern Continent and disappeared in that ocean."

Having said that, Elland sighed with some longing:

"It is said that in a hidden place in the Sea of ​​Madness, the treasure left by the god of death is waiting for someone with a specific key to find and open it, but no one knows what the key looks like and where it will appear.

"The second place is the 'Fountain of Youth'. In the depths of the Sonia Sea, it is rumored that one of the Four Kings, the 'King of Immortality' Agaritu, drank the water from the Fountain of Youth." Use the latest domain name
