Chapter 1848 New Collaborator

Not long after the old man left the deserted island, an ocean-going sailboat from the Kingdom of Ruth took the wrong route and passed by near the deserted island. Bernando was very lucky to board the ship and return to the Kingdom of Ruth.

This experience on the deserted island is the most important experience in Bernando's life. He learned a lot of knowledge and skills from the elderly on the deserted island, which played a very critical role in his later life. So to this day, that life on the deserted island is still engraved in his memory.

After returning to Rut, Bernando was looking for the countries mentioned by the old man, the Kingdom of Sigma, the Kingdom of Ing, the Franes Empire, etc. However, after searching through all the books, he did not see a country that matched it. Although there was indeed a principality called Ing, among the countries that had disappeared in the past, that country was completely different from the Kingdom of Ing, as for the Franes Empire, which had inherited a thousand years and occupied a land of land in the old man, there was no shadow.

And more importantly, the old man mentioned that his motherland, the Kingdom of Sigma, was an extremely powerful sea kingdom, called the sea overlord, but there was never a sea kingdom on the Novat continent. Even though the gray fog has disappeared on the sea surface and many coastal kingdoms are competing for maritime interests, these kingdoms are not very different from each other's strength, and absolutely none of them are qualified to be called the sea overlord.

This made him have a bold guess, that is, the countries the old man mentioned were not the world he was in, but another world, and he also dictated the process of his wandering on the deserted island from the process of the old man disappearing with the ghost ship, guessing that the old man's world might be in the grey fog on the edge of the world.

Although Bernando made bold speculations, he had no way to prove it, and could not even tell these things and ideas, because anyone who heard these speculations would regard him as a madman, a madman living alone on a deserted island and had to imagine an old man's companion.

So everything about the old man, the world in the mist mentioned by the old man, etc. has become Bernando's secrets. He has never told anyone about this, even his wife and son. He also feels that he might bring this secret to the grave.

However, just today, just now, Leo Dodd, a scholar from the Berent Kingdom, told everyone that the place called the abyss was a world outside the grey fog, and that it was also a ghost ship that also came from a world outside the grey fog. This immediately aroused the memories buried deep in his heart and made him think a lot.

"If you go down, I have something to say to Mr. Leo." Bernando felt that some things were not suitable for everyone to say, so he ordered to other consultants.

Although the other consultants were also curious about what the two were going to say, whether they were going to talk about the world outside the gray fog, and what Bernando, as the leader of the pioneering group, knew, but no matter how powerful the curiosity was, they could not resist the suppression of power. After hearing Bernando's orders, they did not refute and obediently walked out of the tent.

I saw Leo continued, "I don't know what you and Joe are talking about. Joe and I are just working together to explore the underground world."

One thing Leo is certain is that although the old Sigma came to this world alive and lived on the deserted island of this world for a long time, it seemed that he had not suffered any harm through the gray fog, but in fact, the old Sigma had been infected or polluted by the unknown forces in the gray fog. This pollution is more like turning the old Sigma into a signal source, constantly sending signals to the ghost ship that has been transformed by the gray fog. This resulted in the ending of the ghost ship appearing on the beach, the old man boarded the ship, and disappeared with the ghost ship.

"Underground World?" Bernando was completely stunned. He didn't understand why another underground world appeared.

Before Bernando asked again, Leo asked first: "Since Your Excellency Bernando has asked so many questions and I have answered your questions, then I would like to ask you, why do you understand Sigma? Have you been to the world outside the grey fog, or have you been with people from that world Sigma Kingdom for a long time?"

After hearing Leo's words, Bernando was completely stunned. He looked at Leo and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

According to common sense, he should question Leo, but the problem is that he has truly seen another world. He knows very well that people in another world are no different from him, just like people from another country. Leo can speak the half of the proverb in Sigma that is more accurate than him. Obviously, this is enough to prove that even if Leo does not come from another world, he will definitely have long contact with people in another world like him.

"I don't know." Leo shook his head.

Leo then talked about more than a dozen kingdoms in the World of Veren. After hearing this, Bernando found that among the names of the kingdoms that Leo mentioned, in addition to the names of the kingdoms such as the Flan Empire that he knew, there were many kingdom names that he did not know. This also made him increasingly feel that Leo was really from the person from the world outside the gray fog.

After the consultant left, Bernando went outside the tent again and told his guard to stay away from the tent and not to let people get close. After making these precautions to avoid eavesdropping, he returned to the tent, and then said half a common proverb from the Kingdom of Sigma in the Sigma language he learned from the old man, saying: "A man can never meet the same person in the same place."

Leo did not hide it. Compared to Joe, he felt that Bernando in front of him was more suitable to be a collaborator, even if Bernando knew nothing about the so-called underground world.

"English." Leo replied calmly.

"This is impossible, this is impossible! Ghost Ship, have you boarded the Ghost Ship and got off the ship alive?" Bernando took several steps back as if he was greatly frightened, and his body had to rely on his hands to support the table in order to stand firm.

Bernando took a deep breath, stabilized his somewhat confused heart, and asked confirmation: "Since you say you are from that world, then tell me, which country you are from that world?"

When he heard Bernando say that it was not particularly standard, and even the twisting Sigma language, Leo couldn't help but look shocked on his face. He also followed the other half of the proverb in the standard Sigma language and said: "It's like a ship can never meet the same ship at the same location on the sea."

"I have boarded the ghost ship and got off the ship safely, but I did not go to the world in the grey fog like you said," Leo guessed at this moment that the nobles of the Kingdom of Ruth in front of him should have met people from the Kingdom of Sigma, and had been with him for a long time so that he could learn the language of the Kingdom of Sigma. This made him very interested in Bernando's experience, so he did not hide his origin and used it to lead to the information he wanted to know.

In his opinion, only the ghost ship can pass through the gray fog in this world. If what Leo said is true, then he can only board the ghost ship, pass through the gray fog through the ghost ship, and go to the world over the gray fog, and then return to this world through the ghost ship, and get off the ghost ship alive.

When Bernando heard this, he hesitated for a moment. Perhaps he felt that since Leo had answered his question, he should have answered Leo's question. So he sorted out his thoughts and briefly told Leo that his past experience of wandering on a deserted island.

Bernando was stunned for a moment and realized that he was putting the cart before the horse. As the other party said, the most important thing for him now is to solve his bad situation and find a new collaborator that could continue to develop the colony.

After thinking about priorities, Bernando suppressed his curiosity about another world and asked, "According to your opinion, Joe's proposal is feasible, right?"

It is not difficult to see from the life experience of the old Sigma in Bernando that the gray fog itself is not harmful. Otherwise, the old Sigma would not have come to this world alive, but what really puts the gray fog at risk is the unknown power and extraordinary living organisms in the gray fog. The damage caused by these dangers is unpredictable.

"Although you said you were from that world, this seems a bit incredible to me, because compared to people from that world, you have seen people from that world like me, and heard things about that world, which seems more reasonable." Although Bernando has completely believed that the person in front of him knows things about that world better than himself, he still has some doubts about the origin he said, so he verified: "Do you have other evidence to prove that you are from that world?"

No matter which possibility, it means that Leo really knows that there are other worlds outside the gray fog, and it also means that the words Leo said before are most likely true.

"No, this is impossible! No one can get off the ship alive from the ghost ship!" However, after he made this guess, he quickly denied himself.

Leo did not see what happened with his own eyes, but through the situation described by Bernando and his own speculation, it is almost certain that the power contained in the grey fog can play some effect in this world where all extraordinary powers are suppressed. This is perhaps the most important intelligence that Leo discovered from Bernando's narrative experience.

After hearing this, Leo couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He could hear that Bernando had concealed something, but that was not important to him. What he valued was that Bernando's experience just proved his guess, and at the same time provided him with a feasible way to leave this world, that is, to pass through the gray fog and arrive at the World of Veren on the other side.

Bernando was stunned for a moment. He thought Leo was a lobbyist arranged by Joe, but now it seemed that things were different from what he thought.

Leo said truthfully: "I have not only met people from the Kingdom of Sigma, but I have also been to the world where the Kingdom of Sigma is."

You should know that in this world, even the power of the Stone Throne is suppressed to one ten, and other powers are suppressed to the point where there is no difference between whether they are used or not. But now there is a kind of power that can still exert a powerful effect in this world with the law of extraordinary power. This naturally makes Leo covetous and feels that it is necessary to study this power. If he can master this power, he will live a easier life in this world and don’t have to rush to find a way to leave this world smoothly.

Leo did not follow Bernando's idea to produce any evidence, but smiled and said, "I don't need to prove that whether you believe it does not mean anything to me. Shouldn't you be more concerned about your current situation than if I come from that world?"

"You, have you seen people from the Kingdom of Sigma?" Bernando couldn't wait to ask after calming down a little.

Hearing Leo's proverb and the language he used, Bernando's face was also occupied by a shocked expression, as if the shocked emotion was some kind of contagious virus.

Hearing the word Ing, Bernando believed in what Leo said a few more times, and then he asked: "Besides the Kingdom of Ing, do you know what kingdoms there are in that world?"

So he told Bernando about the matter about the underground world and the content of his cooperation with Joe.

After hearing this, Bernando was even more shocked. He never thought that in the New World, in addition to the indigenous tribes, there was an underground world, and that underground world actually had a channel connected to the Novat continent. This was undoubtedly a news that was enough to shock the whole world.

Now the coastal kingdoms of Novat are very active in developing New World and marine resources, and they are willing to invest in the development of New World and marine routes. Now only three routes are stable and safe. The other so-called routes are either full of unpredictable ocean turbulence or are in high-incidence areas of storm. There are not enough islands to provide supplies in the middle of those routes. This makes the countries that now master those three routes have mastered most of the wealth of the New World. If other kingdoms want to navigate from these three routes, they must pay a high shipping fee.

It is not without countries trying to seize control of these three routes. The countries that control these three routes not only have extremely powerful naval fleets, but also built strong fortresses and cruise fleets that can receive various supplies at any time on the islands in the route. It is basically difficult to defeat them in the waters of the routes they control.
