Chapter 399: Ancient Ruins
What's going on?
It seems that in the fat man's cognition, the images of the devil Huang and the God King Mu are completely dislocated.
Of course, although I was confused at this time, I didn’t ask much. After all, the situation at this moment was a bit troublesome for me.
Once I asked, they realized that our "faith" was different from theirs, who knows what would be done?
I have paid special attention to this strange phenomenon.
I gradually noticed that here, the images of gods believed in by the wild people almost changed.
In the outside world, Devil Huang is a demon who holds a fetal sword and kills endlessly, but here, this is the image of Lu, and Devil Huang is the one who holds the scepter.
In addition, there is a small detail that also makes me a little concerned. I noticed that the writing habits of these wild people are from left to right, which is consistent with the way we modern people read books. But on that mysterious island, the literature of the wild people is from right to left, which is the opposite.
There are many other similar details.
This made me unable to help but have a ridiculous guess.
I wonder, will this place be a mirror and reflection of the original deserted island?
In the past, the entire island was filled with land, with a large lake in the middle, which is the Lake of the Devil.
But here is an endless sea with two pieces of land in the middle.
Is this a coincidence?
All of this is really weird and incredible.
At this time, we didn't have time to think about these things, we just continued to drink and chat with the fat captain.
However, as we drank, a guard came and told the fat man in a panic that the witch doctor was actually dead.
When this man said this, his eyes were still secretly looking at us.
Obviously, he had already judged that it was us who killed people.
At this moment, the atmosphere suddenly solidified, and I quietly held the weapon in my hand.
However, the fat captain hurriedly smiled and said, "Of course that guy was killed by the lizard man during the battle. If you have such an obvious matter, do you still need to ask for instructions?"
The soldier who reported that he could not have thought that the captain would say this. He seemed to want to say something, but the fat man glared at him coldly, and the guy got out of tactfully.
After sending the guard away, the fat captain smiled at us and said, "It's just a witch doctor. The lizard man killed so many people, and he is not short of him."
This guy's words reassure us a lot. Speaking of which, we have heard some rumors. It is said that the fat man and the so-called witch doctor are not very good at dealing with each other, and the two have some conflicts.
Now that we have helped him kill someone, he may be grateful to us in his heart.
However, speaking of this, the fat man reminded us: "The brave men, there is one thing that I must remind you, on our Honglu Island, the power of these witch doctors is quite large. The witch doctors have their own organization, called the witch club, which is rape and plunder, and do all kinds of evil. I hate them very much on weekdays. This time this guy deserves it, but our dead Ke Muer is the illegitimate son of an elder of the witch club, and we are very likely to be targeted after we go back."
When the fat man said this, he also showed a hint of embarrassment, "These guys are very vicious in their actions. Even if I want to help you, it will be very difficult."
It means that it can help us?
However, depending on what this guy means, it probably has some conditions and needs some reward.
I didn't play with him or her, and just asked him what he wanted.
Upon hearing this, the fat captain couldn't help laughing and said enthusiastically: "Dad, it's great to talk to someone like you!"
I told the little savage that my name is Dad, so now these people have to call me Dad.
At this moment, I heard the fat captain say this: "To be honest, I am actually a member of the Merchant Ship Club on the island. This Merchant Ship Club was originally just a naval organization organized by some nobles in the past, but later it has gradually developed into one of the top major forces on the island. On our Honglu Island, there are now three major forces in Zhenxiong to dominate. The first is the power of the royal family, the second is the Witch Club, and the third is our Merchant Ship Club."
"And our Merchant Ship Society and the Witch Society have always had very serious conflicts and struggles.
Due to an ancient treaty when the Merchant Ship Association was established, every ship that went out to sea to hunt treasures and fish would pay 30% or even 40% of the income to the Witch Association for vain.
The fat man had that witch doctor on his boat, which is also here.
When the merchant ship was weak in the past, they were unhappy in paying the money, but they could only endure it.
Now that the merchants in the Merchant Ship Club are powerful, they are naturally very unhappy about it.
As a result, the conflict between the two sides became more and more intense.
The fat man said that the enemy's enemy is a friend, and he wants to help us.
In addition, the reason why fat people value us is naturally because we are strong.
He now has a treasure map of ancient ruins, and hopes we can help explore.
"This time I went to sea, fishing and salvage were secondary. In fact, my real purpose was to come to the ancient ruins under the sea. It is said that there is a huge treasure hidden in this ruin!"
I didn't expect that this fat man had such a secret.
This secret caught my attention instantly.
Ancient ruins in the sea?
This place is already weird, and the ancient ruins here are likely to be extraordinary. Maybe I can find what I want in it.
We all expressed our interest and quickly asked the fat man to explain it carefully to us.
But this guy smiled at us and said that the secret of this treasure cannot be easily revealed. Only when he really finds the place, he will tell us the specific news about the treasure.
This disappointed us very much, that is to say, the fat man himself cannot be sure whether he can find this treasure.
I thought about it and felt that it was understandable that it was difficult to find a treasure buried under the sea in this vast sea, especially because their productivity level was still in the feudal era, and there was no decent positioning product at all.
However, the fat captain promised us that if we really found the correct unknown, this treasure would definitely surprise us.
This made me look forward to it.
After all, exploring an ancient ruin and finding a way to relieve the curse may help me, and then help the fat man. When he returns to the land, he can help me avoid the persecution of the witch association.
It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.
In this way, we lived on the boat with peace of mind, of course this time we moved into the noble area.
At this time, Kogoro suddenly appeared and found us again to join us.
This made me sneer.
