Looking at the foggy area on the sea gradually getting away from the stern of the ship, Leo thought about the secrets of the sea area he had discovered. Although there was no movement in the eyeball of the abyss snake in his hand, and there was no feeling of hunger in the chaotic stomach, he always felt that

This unknown black creature may be related to the abyss.

Just as Leo was thinking about things, the old captain with a pipe in his mouth came over and said to Leo: "The Mysterious Events Research Society has issued a huge reward for exploring the secrets of the eternal battlefield. This reward is still hanging on today.

In the black market, and it continues to accumulate, the numbers are already staggering."

"Society for the Study of Mysterious Events?" Leo was stunned when he heard this unfamiliar name.

"It's a subsidiary organization of the Lost World Society." The old captain said while biting his pipe.

"Do you know who I am?" Leo could feel the change in the old captain's attitude. In addition, he easily revealed the Secret Society of Lost Words, a secret organization that ordinary people should not know. It was obvious that the old captain had already expressed his concern.

Identity is known.

"Yes." The old captain nodded and admitted, "Your Majesty, I said you are a very important guest."

Leo got two interesting pieces of information from the old captain's words. One was that the Snow Queen, whom he had never met before, knew about him. It must be related to the witch group. The second one made him a little surprised, that is, the old captain was able to

The Snow Queen has been contacted on the ship, which means there is at least one remote communication device on the ship.

Although Leo was curious about what this communication device that was beyond this era looked like and how it worked, he did not ask because he was sure that even if he asked, the other party would not tell them, so there was no need to waste time.

Leo had no intention of talking, but the old captain had no intention of leaving just like that.

When the old captain saw Leo's eyes always looking at the fog on the sea, and because Leo had been reading information about the Pirate King's treasure on the ship in the past two days, he thought that Leo was also interested in the Pirate King's treasure, so he speculated:

"Are you also thinking that the Pirate King's treasure may be in the sea under the mist? In fact, you are not the only one who thinks so, many people have thought so before. But after a little thought, you know that such a thing is impossible."

"Why do you say that?" Leo turned to look at the old captain and asked.

"Isn't this obvious?" The old captain pointed to the fog-covered sea area and said: "That sea area is located at the outermost layer of Skeleton Bay. Although it is still within the control range of the Pirate Kingdom, there are too many people coming and going here.

Burying treasure here is like putting it on display in a crowded market place."

Although Leo did not agree with this statement, he did not refute it, because if the Pirate King's treasure was really in that sea area, he would have no way to break in and take out the treasure.

"Is there anything else?" Leo turned around and looked at the old captain, feeling that there was something else he hadn't said yet.

The old captain said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, let me tell you that she hopes to meet you?"

Leo thought for a moment and asked: "Where?"

The old captain explained: "When we reach the mainland of Minsk, someone will contact you."

Leo didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and turned around to return to the cabin to prepare for the two days of treasure hunting in Skeleton Bay.

After driving for another hour or so, the number of ships on the sea gradually increased. From the four or five ocean-going ships that entered Skeleton Bay with the Snow Queen, the number gradually increased to hundreds of ships of various sizes. These ships were large and small.

Most of them are small fishing boats, and there are also a few patrol ships with obvious military characteristics. As for other ferries that go to and from various islands, there are very few.

It is not difficult to see from this situation that those ferries may have been rented by the treasure hunters who gathered here and sailed to other sea areas.

"Golden Island!" At this time, someone suddenly said loudly on the bow of the ship.

Between them, a huge island on the distant sea gradually changed from blur to clear, and its skull shape became more and more obvious in everyone's eyes.

The reason why Skull Bay has this name is not only because the bay is shaped like a skull, but more importantly because Skull Island, the former capital of the pirate kingdom, is located.

This island did not look like what it looks like now at first. Its landform looked like a skull from a distance. Later, due to its geographical advantages, a large number of pirates gathered here, and soon these pirates united together.

It became a pirate alliance. On the day when the alliance was established, someone suggested that they simply make the island look like a skeleton to scare other ships.

Naturally, the people in the alliance accepted this proposal angrily, and began to transform Skull Island according to their ideas. However, before the transformation of Skull Island was completed, the pirate alliance was annexed by other big pirates, just a few times.

It was annexed, but the transformation of Skull Island was still not over. The subsequent occupation still followed the predecessors' transformation of Skull Island.

In this way, when the five pirate kings gathered here to establish the Pirate Kingdom, the skeleton shape of the island was completely established, and the name of the island was therefore changed to Skull Island.

The core of the entire Skull Island is naturally the platform above the skull. On that huge platform, the five pirate kings of the year spent huge sums of money to build a palace. Standing at the top of the palace, as long as the eyesight is good enough and the weather is beautiful,

, you can overlook the entire Skeleton Bay.

Looking from the sea of ​​Skull Bay towards Skull Island, you can also see a huge skeleton with a crown.

Now this castle that once dominated the entire Skeleton Bay, or Pearl Island Chain, has been rented by a rich man from the United States and converted into a hotel. This is also where Leo lived on the island for these two days.

As the ship gets closer and closer to Skull Island, everyone's attention shifts from the crown on top of the skull to the second famous scenic pirate cemetery in Skull Bay.

I don’t know since when, the waters outside Skull Island have become a place for pirates to remember their colleagues. They will take the masts and skull flags from the ships of their dead colleagues to the offshore waters and shoals of Skull Island, and then insert them into the sea, and remove the skulls.

The flag was nailed to the mast.

Because when pirates made pirate flags, in order to prevent corrosion from the air at sea, the pirate flags were made of special vine fibers and special paint. Even after hundreds of years, the pirate flags nailed to those masts are still the same.

Dark as new, they stand like tombstones on this shallow sea, quietly watching the ships coming and going here, telling the past events.

It is said that when someone comes to this pirate cemetery at night, they will hear the pirates loudly singing the song of the storm, which was called the song of pirates in the past and is now called the song of freedom in the Moissanite continent.

"Let's come here at night, maybe we can hear the songs of pirates." Under the deliberate control of the old captain, the ship slid past the edge of the cemetery, and some of them began to discuss the evening's activities.

"It's best not to do that." Leo, who was standing nearby, said.

It's just that Leo wasn't the only one to say this. There was an old man on the other side who was also saying the same thing, which made Leo look at the old man in surprise.

The main reason why Leo said this was that through the Eye of Truth and the Webweaver's Mark, he could see that there was a lot of negative energy permeating this pirate cemetery, and these negative energies were probably related to souls, just because Leo

We don’t know much about the soul yet, so we can’t make a final judgment.

But he knows one thing very well, that is, if an ordinary person's body is exposed to this kind of negative energy for a long time, at least the body will suffer some imperceptible damage, or at worst, it will be directly eroded by the negative energy, and the consequences are unpredictable.

However, if the old man could say such a thing, he must have seen something. However, Leo did not feel any extraordinary energy fluctuations from him. It was obvious that the other man was just an ordinary person.

Leo remembered this old man. He boarded the ship at the port before Sète. The old man did not have any outstanding behavior on the ship. He just liked to go to the deck restaurant near the sunny window when the weather was good, holding a book.

I sat down in the seat next to me, drinking tea and reading a book, looking very leisurely and inconspicuous.

If the old man hadn't suddenly said something like this, Leo might not have even looked at him.

Just as Leo was looking at each other, the old man also looked at Leo, then withdrew his gaze, and said to the people who suggested going to the pirate cemetery at night: "In the past, there were many people like you who were worried about the pirate cemetery.

Curious people have stayed there for a long time at night, do you know what happened?"

Perhaps it was due to the old man's tone. After his words fell, everyone couldn't help feeling a cold meaning. One of the women couldn't help asking: "What happened?"

"As a result..." the old man spoke in a pretentious manner, then stopped, looked at the people who had been attracted, and said extremely seriously: "As a result, they all fell ill after returning because of the sea breeze blowing all night!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then glared at the old man angrily. After all, they were originally prepared to hear some mysterious things from the old man's mouth, but in the end they got such an answer.

However, they didn't care too much about this matter and dispersed one after another. No one paid any attention to the old man who was playing with them.

"Alas! If you tell the truth but no one listens, something will happen sooner or later." The old man sighed, shook his head, then turned to look at Leo, and said very abruptly: "You should be able to see it, right?"

"Yes, I can see it." Leo nodded, and then asked: "You can't see it, right?"

"Yes, I can't see anything." The old man seemed to understand what Leo said, sighed, looked at Leo with envy, and said, "I really envy you people who have extraordinary power.

, can come into contact with the truth of the world more easily than ordinary people like us." As he said, he stretched out his hand towards Leo and said: "Belen Kane."

"Leo Dodd" Leo shook the other person's hand, and suddenly seemed to remember something. He was stunned and said: "Beren Kane, the king of treasure hunting, Belen Kane."

The old man smiled and said: "If there is no second person in the world who can find so many treasures in his lifetime, also named Beren Kane, I think the person you are talking about is me."

If one were to name the ten most legendary figures in the world of Velen in ancient and modern times, Belen Kane is definitely qualified to be among them, because he personally found a total of seventeen treasures that were thought to not exist in his past life.

, and more than fifty ruins that had long been thought to have disappeared were found with his help, so he also has the title of King of Treasure Hunting.

However, Leo's first acquaintance with Belen Kane was not the King of Treasure Hunting, but Old Man Rembrandt. This Belen Kane was also a member of the Lost World Society. Back then, Leo met Old Rembrandt.

When he was studying, Beren Kane sent someone to give a set of restored ancient books to Rembrandt for translation, and as a result, Leo became the translator of that book.

"I finally met you, Leo Dodd!" Old Beren smiled, and then said: "You must know that the book you translated back then was of great help to me. If it weren't for your accurate translation,

I’m afraid it’s impossible to find the ruins of Cahillon, let alone that there was such a highly civilized tribe in Velen’s ancient times.”

"Did you find the ruins of the Cahillon tribe in the northern ice field?" Leo asked with great interest: "What did you find there?"

Speaking of which, the Cahillon Civilization should be the first time that Leo realized that this world is related to the advanced civilization of the universe, because the book Leo translated was a book about the Cahillon Civilization written in a variant of the Papa language.

History, that book also contains a large number of very abstract graphics, but no matter how abstract some graphics are, combined with the accompanying text, Leo still feels that there is a shadow of cosmic civilization in them.

For example, in that book, it was mentioned that a big bird fell from the sky, and out of the bird's belly came a slender giant called Gundam. It was this giant that floated on the wisdom of the ancestors of the Kaxiren tribe, allowing them to

Survive in the harsh environment of the northern ice sheet.

There are similar myths and legends in the myths of various countries around the world, but none of them describe the unknown existence that unlocks wisdom so clearly. Even if Leo has not seen it with his own eyes, just reading these words brings it to his mind.

It can reveal the image of Weiya people who have taken off their armor.

It's a pity that at that time, his mind was more on wizards, psychic powers and other things, and he didn't care about these things.

Now that he heard that old Beren had found the ruins of the Kaxilen civilization, he couldn't help but become interested in exploring.

"What do you think we found there?" Old Beren can be said to be a very thoughtful person, and since Leo didn't make any attempt to hide it, it was easy to see what Leo was thinking, so he asked: "

What do you think you’ll find there?”
