Chapter 17: Ghost ship

He Xiaoxi also pointed at the Southern Islands and drew a circle and said: "The last news I found about the Tower of Spirits was on the site of the Hai tribe. According to the records of the Temple of Nature, they had an army to follow the last of the Tower of Spirits. A saint Adriana went to the Pearl Islands, but the pursuit team including the two saints disappeared without a trace. Of course, the saint Adriana has no news after this, no People know the outcome of this battle. Many people speculate that it was a deadly battle at sea.
But I also noticed that in the days after that, the Pearl Islands began to have the legend of ghost ships. Occasionally, ships disappeared on the route, and then many years later were seen sailing in the sea. It is said that those missing For a long time, when the ship was seen, there was no crew, but it would control the sails and sail in the sea. This kind of ghost ship often turned a blind eye to the general merchant ships, but would actively attack the pirate ship. When they were close to the pirate ship, they would A lot of ghosts appeared, entwined the pirates, let them jump into the sea in horror in illusion, when all the crew on the pirate ship died, this pirate ship will join the ghost fleet and become one of the ghost ships hunting other pirates. Isn't this a style like the Spirit Tower? "
Master Gordon wondered: "I have heard the story of the ghost ship, but as far as I know, there are still a lot of pirates in the Pearl Islands, but the stories of the ghost ship are like rumors without roots."
Xiao Chen said: "If you are the remnants of the Spirit Tower, will you act very high-profile? Or should you secretly act and slowly accumulate strength to let others treat you as a nonsense? Pirates are just some ghosts, Guys who avoid people ’s eyes and ears are also very dangerous when sailing on the sea. Once a storm is encountered, the ship is destroyed and killed. Therefore, letting several pirate ships disappear from time to time, often does not attract anyone ’s attention, but if it is too large, it will not Are you exposed to the eyes of the Temple of Nature? "
Gordon nodded and said yes.
Luo Ling said: "Speaking of which, I think of an anecdote I saw in the Kingdom Library.
It is said that more than three hundred years ago, there was a big pirate leader who wanted to attack a city in the southern city-state. He ordered four subordinate fleets to join together in a certain sea area, and then landed and attacked the city together. But there was a fleet that had not passed the assembly date for a whole day, and the pirate leaders thought they had encountered bad weather and could only continue to wait for them.
But that night, the fleet suddenly appeared, but there were no crew members on the seven or eight ships, but there were many glowing figures shaking on the ship. These things can also control the sailboat. They seem to have no weight, so the speed of the ship is very fast. , Once approaching the pirates' ships, they began to attack with magic.
The big pirate's fleet fell into a bitter fight, because once his soldiers fell, there would be a ghostly humanoid figure, stand up from their corpses, and join the ghosts on the opposite side, so that his men and the ship would fight The less there are, the more people and ships the other party fights. Under the cover of the last two ships of the big pirate, they fled out of nowhere and finally hit the joint fleet of the southern city-state.
Naturally, they were easily annihilated by the joint fleet of the southern city-state. Before being hanged by the city owner, the big pirate told the story, but no one believed him. Everyone thought it was a fire inside them, and He was just defeated by his own people. But a clerk recorded his story. what do y'all think? "
"It's really like fighting in the Spirit Roster." Glad said, "I only rely on the Holy Scripture to achieve this effect. But as far as I know, the Holy One of the Spirit Tower has more than one kind of magic to obtain similar The effect. And Adriana is known as the manjusahua growing on the boundary of life and death, if it is her, it should be easy to do this. "

"You actually have Manzhushahua's claim?" Luo Lingqi said.
Glad said: "This is a flower name written in the Spirit Tower classics, also known as the other shore flower, because the Spirit Tower is originally a magic tower that communicates life and death, so they like to use this tuned name Nickname. "
Luo Ling and Xiao Chen changed their eyes, and it seemed that the Spirit Tower and the Crosser could not be separated.
Xiao Chendao said: "It seems that to find the Tower of Spirits, you must run to the Pearl Islands. This way you will find the Pearl Islands, then to the dwarf kingdom, and finally to the sea of ​​ice and snow, but it is a smooth way."
He Xiaoxi continued: "There is still a place where you can go all the way, that is the western continent where the source tower is located."
"Western China?" There were several people sitting there who couldn't help shouting.
The western continent is naturally another continent relative to the continent where you are. In the Pearl Islands, further west, through the entire violent sea, there is a much smaller continent than the eastern continent. That is the western continent. . For most people in the eastern continent, this continent is something that is not known at all. For the few people who know the existence of the Western Continent, it is just a concept. Because in the Pearl Islands region further west, the sea conditions and weather are extremely bad, as if the gods deliberately placed a barrier there.
Existing ships can hardly cross the sea. Only a few explorers have crossed the sea in history, and they all suffered very heavy losses, but the travel notes and observation notes they brought back made people lose it. interest. Desolate fields, vast forests, and ragged people.
The feats of the explorers may cause a wave of new continents in a short period of time, but this wave of roots is a rootless tree and will soon subside. If there is no follow-up progress after one or two years, no one will remember it. These things. If there is smooth traffic between the two continents, something like the colonization of America on Earth may happen. However, the journey of nine deaths and one life, and there is nothing worth pursuing on the continent, so that the king, nobles and priests are not interested in it.
It is more backward, more savage, easier to conquer, and has a variety of resources, but even after development and occupation, there is no trading value. Therefore, the old and the dead are almost unrelated. People in the Eastern Continent do not know how people in the Western Continent view them, but in their eyes, the people in the Western Continent are thorough barbarians, and the level of civilization may not be as good as the orcs in the North.
