Chapter 14 The Fascinating Sea

"Bao Laoquan? Can you really be young forever after drinking it?" Donna asked curiously with her eyes wide open.

She didn't have any expectations because she was still young enough.

Aerran did not immediately answer, forked a slice of fried fishman side rib meat, bit it and swallowed it with two bites, and then sipped a little Sunya blood wine.

"The sweet taste completely dilutes the greasy taste of the fried..." He half-closed his eyes, looking like a gourmet style.

After savoring for a few seconds, he slowly answered Qi Tangna's questions:

"I don't know if there is an 'Understanding Spring', nor can I confirm whether the 'Immortal King' Agaritu has drunk its fountain. I only know one thing, that is, when I was very young, I heard the legend of this pirate king, just like the 'King of the Five Seas' Nast seems to be alive forever."

"Their beards must be very long, exceeding their chests!" Denton expressed his opinion.

"In fact, Nast, the 'King of the Five Seas', had his beard only below his neck. He sat on the deck, wearing a gorgeous robe with a black background and a silver edge, and a spire crown twice as tall as his head. He looked down at everything around him like a god..." Aerland's tone gradually became deeper, as if he was trapped in the quagmire of memories and could not break free.

"Uncle Captain, have you ever seen the 'King of the Five Seas'?" Donna asked excitedly.

This is the most legendary pirate. His name is passed on the sea and is well known to the children in the port city.

A whole number of generations grew up listening to stories about him!

In a sense, in many people's perception, Nast is equivalent to the real pirate king... I remember that one of the conditions for the promotion of "Black Emperor" is to link his name to the title of "Emperor" and penetrate into the hearts of the people... This is a primary version of the simple version of the attempt? I don't know what the "King of the Five Seas" has reached the sequence... Although Klein is focused on tasting fried fish meat, he is still moved by the topic of everyone.

Facing Donna's question, Alland sighed:

"I was still young at that time and served on the William V. Once, our fleet tried to cross the scourge of the scourge, where he met the Black Emperor.

"In those few minutes, everyone, including the fleet commander, lost their will to resist, and luckily Nast did not order an attack on us."

"Cool!" the boy Denton praised with his eyes shiny.

Aerland no longer continued this topic and smiled:

"As for the 'Immortal King' Agathuri, I have never actually seen him. I only know that he is a pale middle-aged man on the bounty order. How pale is? Let me give you an easy-to-understand example, like a corpse that has just started to rot after a while of death."

When Donna and Denton heard this metaphor, they subconsciously looked at the corpse of the already traumatized fish man and unconsciously wriggled down their throats.

"Of course, the focus of the reward order is not appearance, but amount. In Ruhn alone, Agathuri is worth 100,000 pounds, and he is the lowest reward among the four kings." Aerland changed the topic, "We continue the story of treasure, and the third one is the 'legacy of the Solomon Empire'. In the Fourth Age, when the huge empire was dismembered and destroyed, its royal family boarded a ship with treasures that were jealous of the gods, sailing into the depths of the foggy sea, waiting for the opportunity to rebuild the dynasty. However, five hundred years passed, a thousand years passed, and a thousand five hundred years passed, but they did not appear again."

"It is said that Nast, the 'King of the Five Seas', inherited part of the inheritance of the Solomon Empire, and no one knows whether he is a true descendant of the Black Emperor." Cecil added with interest.

"Sea of ​​mist? The west coast of the northern continent?" Donna recalled her geography knowledge.

"Yes." Creeves responded concisely.

To the west of the northern continent is the sea of ​​fog, to the east is the Sunian Sea, to the south is the sea of ​​turbulence, to the north is the North Sea, to the east and west sides of the southern continent are the same as the northern continent, and to the south is the polar sea. They are combined together, which is the so-called "Five Seas".

The Kingdom of Ruon is backed by the Hornaches Mountains and the inter-sea inland, facing the Sunian Sea in the east and the Desi Gulf in the south, occupying several excellent sea outlets to the "Sea of ​​Furious", but does not involve the foggy sea.

"So..." Donna was not interested in the treasure that was too far away, so she asked instead, "Where is the fourth treasure?"

"That belongs to the last empire of the Quaternary Age. It is rumored that they built a huge ship equivalent to a city, and transferred all the treasures and wealth to it. What's ridiculous is that their escape failed, and the reservations and crew failed to arrive at the port in time, and none of them survived.

"However, the ship disappeared by itself. To this day, people often claim that they saw the huge ship sailing silently on a misty night. It was called the "Ghost Empire" and its locations were everywhere in the Sunian Sea. Oh, this is summarized from those stories." Aerland looked up at the red moon in the sky, with a little ridicule in his tone and an unconcealable yearning.

"Maybe tomorrow night, no, tonight, we will see it passing by!" Donna thought with anticipation and excitement.

Klein packed up the remaining food, drank a sip of black tea, and listened to Aerland's remnant of the remaining treasures:

"The fifth is 'Lost Newnes'. It is rumored that there is a civilization belonging to intelligent creatures under the fog sea. Navigators and adventurers in that area often find strange objects, all pointing to Newnes in the ancient times, but members of this civilization have never appeared before, as if they have disappeared from this world long ago." Aerland took a sip of the remaining Sunya blood wine and said, "That is the legacy left by a civilization, and the richness is absolutely unimaginable."

Aerland paused for two seconds, put down his glass and laughed:

"In fact, what I yearn for the most is the treasure that is more than the legendary one is the "Sinking Laurel". More than a hundred years ago, it was loaded with gold jewelry and various valuables obtained by the Kingdom from Dongbailang. Because it deviated from the channel, it sank in the Fury Sea and the Sunian Sea, and it has not been discovered until today.

"It is said that the items on it are worth several million pounds in total!"

"Millions of pounds?" This number made Donna blurt out.

As the daughter of a businessman and has been educated for many years, she has a vague understanding of what this number represents.

In Ruan, millionaires are absolutely rich, second only to the top nobles and rich people!

Millions of pounds? Mrs. Mary, who asked me to join the Kragg Club for free, is a member of the Kingdom Air Pollution Investigation Committee and a major shareholder of Coim Company. She is only tens of thousands of pounds. Even so, she is rich enough in the circle of aristocratic and businessmen. She is a very popular divorced lady, and even some noble children have proposed to marry... Klein quickly found a comparative partner.

Aerland sighed with a smile:

"If I could find the 'Sinking Laurel', then I would no longer be the captain. I would go to Beckland, I would become a philanthropist, I would buy land, donate to political parties, and get a hereditary title!"

I heard Talim mention that Lord, that is, the title of Baron is about 300,000 pounds, and the Baron is about 800,000 pounds... If you salvage the treasure, viscount, or even the earl, it is conceivable... several million pounds! Klein helped the other party improve his plan in his heart.

"If it were me, I wouldn't have been like this. I would like to buy a big manor." Cecil also began to imagine his life after harvesting the treasure. "I would like to invite many servants and servants to plant large areas of wheat, build vineyards, and make wine for myself... Also, a large room where you can bask in the sun, a leisurely cattle, sheep and horse, and bread from your own mill are as beautiful as paintings..."

Aerland laughed out loud:

"Madam, do you know how much a manor like this is worth?"

"No, I don't know." Cecil shook his head.

"It's only a few thousand pounds. As long as you salvage the 'Sinking Laurel', you can buy a thousand similar estates!" Aerland used specific numbers to clarify the value of the treasure.

One thousand manors? Cecil couldn't help but pick up the cup and drank a sip of black tea.

Before this, she knew that millions of pounds were a lot of money, but she didn't expect it to be so much!

To relieve the shock in her heart, she looked at Creeves:

"Boss, if you find the 'Sunken Laurel', what are you going to buy, no, what kind of life do you want to live?"

Creeves was silent and said:

"Go home, hug my wife and children and tell them I don't have to go out to sea to take risks."

Nice guy... Klein nodded slightly.

Donna looked at him curiously:

"Uncle Adventurer, where are you?"

Klein replied without any expression:

"Tell yourself not to sleep anymore and wake up quickly."

Puff... Tangna sprayed out the sweet ice tea she had just drunk. Fortunately, the fried fish on the table had been eaten up.

At this moment, Klein sighed in his heart:

Although I knew that it was basically impossible to find the treasure, otherwise so many strong people from major churches would have completed it long ago, when I discussed the corresponding topic just now, I still couldn't help but feel a little excited. This is the charm of the treasure! Even if it is just a legend, it can attract many adventurers!

Donna wiped her mouth and sat down like a lady, as if she was not the one who lost her composure just now.

The little boy Denton asked unsatisfiedly:

"Is there any other treasure legend?"

Aerland looked at Creeves and signaled that he would answer.

Creeves calmly took a sip of black tea and said in a low tone:

"The treasure legends on the sea will never be counted. The secret settlement of elves, the pirate ship missing in the depths of the fog, the underwater city sealed with powerful monsters, the last secret treasure of Emperor Rosel, etc.."

Ah? The Emperor has reached the level of keeping treasure legends for others... If it is true, will there be a card of blasphemy in it? How many will there be? By the way, the previous legend of "Key of Death" may help Mr. Azke recover more memories, and write a letter to tell him later... Klein thought curiously and expectantly.
Chapter completed!
