Leo didn’t know whether the bow of the Jackdaw was a sacred object of the Jackdaw Church, but he could be sure that the bow was like a powerful psionic item when it was intact, because even in the past For a long time, the sun and rain on the beach of this island still have a strong spiritual power.
When he touched the bow image with his hand, the psionic energy of the bow image attacked him uncontrollably, like a frightened beast, and the palm of the psionic touch was immediately covered with a layer of ice. And a chill continues to intensify and penetrate inside.
Leo did not use any witchcraft, but simply used psionic energy to dispel this chill, took his hand away from the bow image, the ice on his hand immediately disintegrated, and soon returned to normal.
A small confrontation has let Leo learn some details of the remaining power in the bow image. Although this psionic power is not strong, it is very penetrating and extremely chaotic. There is no possibility of control, so he also sized the bow. Like the idea of cutting it down and making it into a wizard's wonder.
Leo, who is no longer concerned about the bow, boarded the famous Jackdaw. Although many places of the ship have decayed, the keel and other structures are still intact. Obviously, the material used for the keel when building this sailboat should be the same as the deck. The materials in other places are different.
Leo was not too interested in the ship itself. He was interested in whether there were any valuable things on the ship, so he carefully looked up every detail on the ship.
Soon, Leo found a secret safe in the captain's room, under the captain's table, covered by a rotten blanket.
Leo walked to the captain's room and carefully looked at whether there were books such as voyage diaries. Unfortunately, he found nothing. Instead, he found some of the most popular long scimitars and hand-winded short crossbows of the pirates at that time. These things have some collectible value, and put them in some auctions, and many people are willing to buy at a high price. If it can prove that it comes from the famous Jackdaw, then the price will be surprisingly high.
It is a pity that these items are of no value to the current Leo, and a lot of things have been installed in the storage space. Even if you can put down these scimitars and crossbows, you may find it more in the future. The things of value, these few things that can only be regarded as historical objects, seem to have no value at all.
After throwing the scimitar and the crossbow aside, Leo walked to the captain’s desk, moved the desk away, and then swept away the rotten blanket, dragged the safe directly from the rotten floor, and threw it to the ground.
After discovering the safe on Spirit Net, Leo had learned that the safe was not simple. Now that he saw the safe, he discovered that the safe is far more exotic than he expected.
The shape of this safe is a Rubik's cube, and each face of the Rubik's cube corresponds to a different basic root of the Camoray language. Depending on the situation, it is necessary to move the panels on the Rubik's cube to reach the correct position to open the safe.
According to the difficulty of opening this safe, even Leo's sleepless calculations may not open this safe for 100 years.
However, the premise of all this is that this safe is good.
When Leo grabbed the safe from under the floor, it was found that a hole had been opened in the safe. This hole was not broken by an external force, but was caused by a highly corrosive liquid, and from this hole In terms of location, this corrosive liquid comes from the bottom of the ship, so Leo can also see a hole that is the size of the arm from the bottom of the groove that holds the safe.
From the current situation, Leo feels that someone should have known that there is a safe hidden underneath, and then use this method of gradually corroding from the outside to open it, and the person doing so is likely to be the crew of the ship, otherwise It is impossible to determine the location of the safe so accurately.
Leo is not too interested in who opened the safe, he is interested in what is in the safe.
Although the safe was opened, the contents were not completely taken away by the person who opened them and left some things. These things are not precious items like gold and silver jewelry, but some rubble.
Leo poured out all the gravel in the safe, and then took a closer look at the size and shape of the gravel, feeling that the gravel should be a whole.
Thinking of Leo here, he quickly put together these rubbles like a puzzle, and quickly put together a complete shape. After seeing this complete piece of rubble, Leo felt a bit familiar. And quickly remembered that this object is the stone ball that banned the true eye, but it has only shrunk many times.
Leo put the patched pieces in front of his eyes and looked carefully. It was found that there were indeed a large number of Turing roots on the surface of the fragments. Only for unknown reasons, most of the content was worn out, and more importantly, he It was found that the reason for the fragmentation of the stone ball was not broken by an external force, but fragmented from the inside out, which means that the things enclosed in the stone ball escaped.
A picture emerged from Leo’s mind. When the Jackdaw experienced a naval return, a traitor appeared in Drake’s crew. This traitor may have been a long-term plot. He took advantage of everyone’s exhaustion after the war. In the state, he sneaked into the cabin below the captain's room, and then passed through the board below the captain's room by an unknown method, and opened a hole in the safe.
It was just that, while he opened the hole, the stone ball in the safe box shattered, and the unknown objects confined by the stone ball and the safe box escaped, eventually causing the fall of the Jackdaw.
The question Leo now thinks is whether the traitor in the Drake crew accidentally destroyed the Turing root on the stone ball and released the banned unknown, or did he do it to release the unknown .
Although I have not found any other clues yet, Leo is more inclined to the second kind, because from the traces on the stone ball and the safe, the traitor crew prepared the means to specifically push the Turing root, it seems that this It is a substance that completely restrains Turing roots.
Not to mention this magical substance now, even if it is placed in the past, it may be valuable, and it is even a disaster for the wizard. The church will certainly attach great importance to those who master this substance, money, status, honor It’s within reach, so the traitor crew’s aim at the safe was definitely not for money, something he could easily obtain.
After making a rough guess in his mind, Leo stood up and searched the room carefully. The room was very clean. This cleanness did not mean that there was no dust, but that everything in the room was left when the owner left the room. Cleaned up.
Most of the things left in the house are some decorative objects, or spoils with special meaning, there are also some precious wines and some old sailing records, except for nothing else with text Too.
The bookshelves on the wall of the room are empty. From the traces on the surface of the bookshelves, it is not difficult to see that a large number of books have been placed here before, and each book is very thick and heavy, and the wooden board of the bookshelf is pressed out of the recess Marks, obviously these
The books were taken away.
After finding no other useful clues, Leo turned and walked out of the room, jumped out of a hole in the side deck, and came to the bottom cabin. Then he walked towards the cabin below the captain's room on some decaying wooden boards.
I saw that this cabin was supposed to be a material cabin, which contained a lot of food and drinking water. Now these things have been completely decayed, only some broken cloth bags and wooden barrels.
On the ground of this cabin, Leo soon found a gravel, and the shape and size should come from the stone ball in the safe.
Leo also saw an sacrifice bottle and other objects beside the gravel, and there was a skeleton broken hand next to the sacrifice bottle. From the wound of the skeleton broken hand, it was obviously not cut, but It was corroded, and it seems that the person who destroyed the safe did not end well.
"Hey! This is..." Leo saw a ring on his broken phalanx, and the ring face was a beautiful rose.
In the Velon world, there are many people who use roses as family badges, but the most famous ones are the red roses of the Inge Kingdom and the white rose family of protectors, and only these two families use one flower. The pattern of fully overlooked roses looks down, but the red roses of the royal family are larger, and the white roses of Huguogong are smaller and one petal is missing.
It is obvious from the ring face of this ring that this is the rose badge of the royal family of Inge, and it is not surprising that there is a member of the royal family on Drake's ship.
Drake has gained secret support from the Inge royal family. His power has expanded rapidly, and he has many warships and has formed a fleet. Even if the Inge royal family has absolute trust in Drake, the noble council of the Inge Kingdom will not allow a civilian to have such a large fleet force, so it will definitely put some people on Drake’s ship. Balance will naturally also arrange some people to become Drake's deputy.
However, what makes Leo somewhat puzzled is that it is reasonable to say that the relationship between Drake and the Inge royal family should be excellent. It is precisely because of Drake’s actions at sea that the Inge royal family can get rid of the noble council. Contained, obtained a large amount of power that was once occupied by the noble council, so that the power of the Inge royal family reached the peak at the time.
But the royal children on the Drake ship arranged by the Inge royal family made a betrayal of Drake at that time, destroyed Drake's personal safe, and released the banned unknown. This is really contrary to common sense. The only thing that can be explained is that the value of the forbidden unknown in the stone ball is much greater than that of Drake itself, otherwise the royal child could not do such a thing.
Leo made the inference while removing the ring from the broken arm and carefully looked at the inside of the ring.
According to the habits of ancient nobles, they will engrave the name, title or unique mark of the ring owner on the inside of the emblem ring.
Now there is a unique mark on the inside of this ring. This mark is a very strange pattern, which engraves an octopus whose body is extremely twisted and elongated.
Leo did not know what kind of identity this pattern represented, but he could be sure that the owner of the ring was definitely the upper level of the Church of Poseidon supported by the Inge royal family, because in the Church of Poseidon in the Kingdom of Inge, the Poseidon’s The close servant is a huge octopus. It is said that the octopus guarded the entrance to the abyss of the sea for the of the sea, not allowing any monsters to come out of the abyss, and also prevented anyone from entering the abyss from there, so there was a huge octopus beside each statue of the of the sea.
Leo made some conjectures based on this ring, and also carefully checked the cabin. After finding no other clues, he returned to the deck, and then carefully checked the situation of each cabin above the deck through the spiritual net. After finding his goal, he went straight to the past.
What he found was the room of the member of the royal family on the ship. In fact, this room is very recognizable, because the items inside should be some daily luxuries, and his room is not much smaller than the captain's room. It can be seen that Drake The status of this royal family member is very important.
Compared to the tidy up captain’s room, the room of the member of the royal family is obviously much messier, and it also provides Leo with more useful clues~EbookFREE.me~ because of the royal family The member died suddenly, and the things that ran out of the stone ball were attacking the crew of the Jackdaw. The situation was very chaotic, so the room of the member of the royal family of Inge was not cleaned up. Maybe even when he left that year, now Lei What is the scene that Europe sees.
Leo entered the room and walked directly to the desk next to the window. Carefully pulled the drawer that was about to decay. I saw a book with an unknown animal skin as the cover in the drawer.
When I scanned the room with the spirit net just now, Leo discovered the book for the first time, because he felt very weak psionic power on the cover of the book. Obviously the animal skin was derived from some kind of spirit Can be a creature, and he also found that perhaps because of the effect of the spiritual energy contained in the animal skin, the pages in the book are not corrupted, and they remain relatively intact.
After finding the book, Leo did not rush to read it, but took the book and returned to the deck of the ship, looking at the sky.
At this time the sky was almost dark, Leo found some dry wood, descended into the cabin under the deck, and found some iron pots and the like to block the flames, and piled up into a simple fire pit , Put the wood into the pile, then ignite the fire and use it as a simple temporary shelter.
Afterwards, Leo took some food from the storage space from the previous Queen Mary, and it was hot. He sat by the fire and took out the book just while eating, carefully Flipped it up.
