Just when Fisher said the name, Emhardt's mouth opened wide in front of him. Before Fisher could react, he quickly shrank to the bookshelf and stuck out half of his head.
The eyes on the book cover turned east and west, as if they were afraid that a terrible demon would suddenly appear from somewhere on the ship.
"Is it so scary? Even if it is a true mythical species, there should be no taboo against chanting its name, right?"
There is a basis for Fisher to say this, because according to his previous experience, he has only seen one person with the terrifying power of "reciting its name and knowing its existence", and that is the one who can only use water to flow.
The stinky snake that sprayed his face...Oh no, [God of Life] Lamastia.
Even if divided according to the level of life, Fisher does not think that Lamastia is a mythical level existence. It is very likely that she is a higher level existence than the mythical level.
No matter how powerful Paimon is, he should still belong to the category of mythology, and he is incomparable to gods like Lamastia.
"You don't know, Paimon is the one with the weirdest behavior among all demons. In ancient times, she liked to pretend to be different people to participate in or witness a certain period of history. Even the sanctuary could not resist her.
The penetration allowed her to successfully enter... Hey, do you think there is a possibility that Jesse is Paimon? No, no, this is too dangerous, we have to escape quickly!"
Seeing Emhardt huddled on the bookshelf, pretending to be dead and trembling, Fisher almost knew that he must not have gained anything when he was caught by Paimon in the abyss, but it was different from Emhart.
, he is not worried that Paimon will pay attention to him because he discovered the method to summon her.
The reason is also very simple. Since Paimon was able to let Emhart go in the first place, she must not have taken this conscious relic too seriously. Now Emhart's fear of her is entirely due to traumatic stress.
"Emhardt, calm down. This is just a spell used by ancient humans to summon Paimon. We will not repeat the above steps. You have also recorded the above content, and nothing will happen."
Emhardt, who was hiding on the bookshelf, slightly poked his head out. After seeing the parchment that Fisher had sandwiched under the cover, he took several deep breaths and floated up tremblingly.
Fisher's shoulders went up,
"Okay, cough...Actually, I'm not afraid of her, I'm just a little worried about your safety. You know, a special human like you is the most in line with her taste. What if she pretends to be a
What should you do if a beautiful woman comes to seduce you? You are someone who cannot control your lower body, and you will definitely fall into her trap..."
Fischer patted Emhardt's head with a black line on his face, interrupting his slander against him, but he did not stand up. Instead, he turned back the "Flying Fish Logbook" in his hand.
On the first page after the title page, all the information about Feiyu is written, including its various data, personnel configuration, etc.
Fisher's eyes quickly stopped at the words "Captain: Jesse". At the same time, there was an old yellowed photo next to that line of text. On it was a young man with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a uniform.
This is an old standard captain's uniform from Nali Development Company. It looks sunny and energetic.
Fisher didn't show any unexpected expression on his face. He just focused his gaze on the bright eyes on the young man's face in the photo. After a few seconds, he turned to the next few pages.
The content is all about the voyage story of the real Captain Jesse.
The story tells that a student who graduated from the Royal Academy was inspired by Captain Black and decided to give up his original major and go to sea to contribute to the development of Narli. He entered the development company with full expectations and was driven by his passion.
I learned a wealth of navigation knowledge and got a boat of my own, the "Flying Fish".
But as the navigation missions were carried out again and again, Captain Jesse gradually became confused. He had witnessed too much killing and plundering in the Southern Continent. The spilled blood and screams made him reflect on his original destiny.
Is the goal what it is today?
Captain Jesse is a conscientious man. He made a lot of money from sailing, but he did not abandon his bottom line just because of these glory and wealth.
Reflecting on the crime of pioneering day and night, he became tired of the voyage that he originally enjoyed and became resistant to the pioneering company that he originally regarded as a pioneer of light.
"This is the last mission of Captain Jesse of the Development Company. The Flying Fish was ordered to escort the treasures unearthed from the ruins of the Southern Continent back to Nali, including two relics and a large number of gold coins from the Southern Continent. Unfortunately, these treasures were
We could never return to Nali, so the crew and I decided to rebel against the pioneering company and leave the original route and head further east."
This is relatively late. The pages at the back are very thin. It seems that it has reached the end of Captain Jesse's life. The next record appeared in the captain's log only a few months after the previous record.
At the same time, this was also the last thing that Captain Jesse wrote down,
"Our ship was wanted by the development company. Originally, we wanted to take these treasures to the east coast of the Western Continent, but their pursuit and interception forced us to give up this idea... Now we can only go to the north.
, the next stop is Pattiusion Island.”
"My crew members have alienated their minds due to the suffering during this period. I can detect the little thoughts buried in their hearts. I have to be more careful... I regret telling them where the treasures are buried, and I feel a little regretful.
Look at human greed."
"Melissa, my baby, I don't know if I will live to see you again. I also know that I will never have the chance to say these words to you, but getting engaged to you is really the best thing I have done in my life.
It’s over, I love you deeply, and the Mother Goddess has witnessed my loyalty to you...I’m sorry, I may not be able to return to Nali."
There was nothing left. Fisher slowly moved his eyes away from the last paragraph of the book, and then casually threw the dusty book on the desk in front of him.
"It seems that the crew didn't find the diary hidden deep in the bookshelf when they killed the captain... Also, the old man didn't seem to like reading. Of course the crew wouldn't go there when they were busy robbing treasures.
Check the bookshelf. Come on, let's see what those treasures really look like."
At this time, waves of Mohu magic came from the cabin below. Fisher stood up, and a black sword hilt fell into his hand. He gently pushed the captain away.
The door of the room entered into the moonlight.
There was silence on the deck, and he led Emhardt towards the cabin below the deck.
...
...
There are magic lights hanging on the wooden corridor of the cabin below, but I don't know if it is because too much time has passed and the magic emblem is unstable. Anyway, those lights flicker, which is very narrow.
The corridor adds a bit of spookiness.
Fisher walked around the underground floor but didn't find the old man pretending to be Jesse, so he continued walking downstairs.
As he walked, he also looked at the situation on both sides of the corridor. He saw that there were extremely obvious knife marks and bullet marks on some walls and handrails. Often, not far from these marks, you could find several completely dry places.
The blood stains integrated into the wooden planks were just like the blood stains Fisher saw when he first boarded the ship.
These marks all support the story behind the captain's log. There was an internal fight in the Flying Fish, and the reason was because of the treasures on the ship.
Captain Jesse decided to flee with the Pioneering Company's cargo because of his conscience, but now it seems that his crew members do not have such noble sentiments. They were after the gold and jewelry from the beginning.
Jesse was killed by the crew during the voyage, and the remaining crew members fought over the distribution issue, until in the end a winner was determined to monopolize all the treasure.
He was originally supposed to fly away with the Flying Fish and the treasure on it, but he didn't expect to be intercepted by a group of unreasonable gangsters on Pattiogen Island.
In order to survive, he hid the treasure on the ship so that the gang could not find what he wanted. He lied to Fisher that he was the captain of the Flying Fish in order to gain more money.
Sympathy, all this is just to get back on the ship today and get back the treasure that I have been thinking about day and night.
Just as Fisher was moving downstairs, the muzzle of a dark gun behind him was pointed at his back at some point. His old finger pressed the trigger, but just when he was about to fire hard
, but the man in front of him suddenly turned his head, his eyes coldly looking at the old man hiding in a room with his head half out.
That look made the old man feel cold. Before his brain could react, his finger had already pressed the trigger.
"boom!"
The sound of muskets exploded in the darkness, but a mercury sword blade that was faster than a bullet had already stretched out and struck the bullet in mid-air, shooting out brilliant sparks like fireworks in the darkness.
Fisher's body did not move, and the fluid blade took his place and headed towards the old man's palm.
"Buzz buzz!"
The high-speed flowing sword blade extended away, and beat quickly on the old man's hand, leaving several wounds that were deep enough to see the bones. And even faster than the bone-piercing pain reaching his mind, it was the Nali man.
The figure is getting closer and closer.
Isn't this guy...a human?!
"Monster!"
The musket fell to the ground, and Fisher had already grabbed his neck with one hand. His right hand showed no respect for the old and cherished the young. In an instant, he hit him from the elbow all the way up, to the knees, elbows, shoulders, and then he
head...
Fisher's big hand suddenly twisted, and when he threw the old man in front of him out, his limbs fell to the ground like a doll with its joints disassembled, leaving only his extremely horrified eyes.
Stay with Fisher.
"Misunderstanding...misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding! I thought...I thought it was the gangsters who caught up, so..."
Fisher slowly took the hilt of the sword back into his arms and glanced around the room. He saw a [Concealed Magic] suddenly appeared in the guest room near the window. This magic was already there at this moment.
It was activated by a certain password, and a little golden light flashed in the illusory space behind the magic. Obviously, what was hidden in this magic was the treasure they had hidden before.
Fisher stepped on the old man's body, with an expression on his face that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
"You know, greedy people are always eager to expose their own flaws. If you really come on board and do nothing, and don't open the magic, I might even spend more effort to pry it out from your brain and open it.
The magic password comes..."
"How does it feel to monopolize the treasure after killing the captain? Now you finally see what you want again, are you satisfied?"
Although Fisher didn't have any good intentions towards the old man when he came on the ship at first, after Fisher knew the story of what happened on the ship and the hidden magic was opened by him, the old man was already a dead man.
It doesn't matter if you don't fire.
"No...you...how did you know? Listen to me, I had no involvement in what happened on the ship. It was other crew members who attacked the captain. I was just defending myself. You...wanted the treasure on the ship.
Right? I can give you all the treasures, as long as you can let me live and let me get off the ship, these things will be yours!"
"Isn't that what you're here for? Everyone is here for this. There's no need to do anything extra, right? Let me go and I can swim back to Pattiusa, as long as..."
Fisher in the darkness ignored his excuse. He slowly raised the fluid sword in his hand and pointed it at the helpless old man on the ground.
"Okay, shut up. If you have anything to defend, wait until you go to the Mother Goddess and talk to her... By the way, there is one more thing. Captain Jesse would like to say hello to you."
"Kacha!"
The old man's eyes opened slightly, and the next moment the silver light in front of his eyes suddenly penetrated into his neck, completely separating his body and head. Even when he was dying, his hands were still tightly holding the one in front of his chest.
A golden compass, as if one's fingers are completely embedded in gold.
"Wow, he looks like he's incontinent, that's gross...wait a minute, Fisher.
Well, if you kill him, can you sail the boat to the north?"
"This ship is driven by steam power. As long as the course is correct, it will not go to the wrong place. I learned how to drive a steam ship in the military academy, and there is magic and you to assist it, so you don't have to worry about insufficient manpower."
"...I'm just a book! How can I help you sail the boat."
"There's always someone who can help, Crew Emhardt."
"..."
Fisher moved his eyes away from the old man's body on the ground and looked at the space hidden behind the magic in front of him. He got closer and saw the jewelry, gold and two weird-looking items hidden inside.
There are also some old documents from the pioneering company.
It seems that this magic was originally used by the captain to store these important documents. Who knew that Captain Jesse also placed an extra hidden compartment behind his bookshelf.
Fisher took out the gold jewelry and the two weird-looking relics, but the light in the room was too dark. It was estimated that the illuminated magic emblem was about to disappear, so he could only put the gold ones first.
Here, he dragged the old man's body and returned to the deck with two relics.
After throwing the old man's body into the sea, he returned to Jesse's bright captain's cabin and carefully looked at the two strange-looking relics in front of him.
The shape of the first item is very easy to identify. Although its appearance is strange, it has a very high-end beauty. The overall shape is in the shape of a breastplate. It is very light and thin. It is forged from some kind of metal. Fisher can't hold it in his hand at all.
I didn't feel any weight, just as light as a feather.
"Fisher! This thing is a breastplate made by a saint. The effect is just as you think. It is not only very light but also extremely hard. Moreover, this piece is one of the highest quality among the holy objects. Look, above
The lines on it are very uniform, indicating that the saint who forged it is definitely a highly skilled senior blacksmith..."
Fisher put the breastplate on his chest and tried it, and suddenly discovered that the breastplate could actively adjust its size to fit his body. He had just put the angel breastplate on his body, and the breastplate
It already fit tightly with his body, as if it was specially made for Fisher.
After that, Fisher took it off again to test its specific strength. He hit the surface of the breastplate with all his strength without leaving any traces, and the fluid sword only left no trace.
There are just a few more subtle marks, and it seems that it can withstand physical attacks of the eighth to ninth levels without any problems.
This one could be used by himself, so Fisher put it on under his shirt. After moving a few times to make sure it would not cause any discomfort, he turned his attention to the next relic with satisfaction.
It was a black ring with no gems inlaid on it, but the body of the ring was very spacious, more than twice as wide as Fisher's usual magic-engraved rings.
"Emhart, do you recognize this thing?"
Fisher took a look at the black ring in his hand. Although it had a magical luster that was unique to relics, it had not shown any effect so far.
"Um... I don't recognize this thing at all. Besides, this sacred object looks a little... um, rough?"
"Rough?"
Fisher glanced at Emhardt next to him in surprise. This guy respected the angels very much and basically would not utter any disrespectful words towards them, yet this relic could get such an evaluation from him.
, which made Fisher suspect that this thing was probably not forged by angels.
Could it be Mignonette? Or other creatures that learned blacksmithing skills from angel species?
"By the way, the hair bundle Jasmine wore on her head before is also a relic. Which one is better in workmanship than this relic?"
"Hmm... I think the one on the cetacean girl's hair is better."
"Is that so..."
Fisher touched his chin, and then tested the relic, only to find that it had no effect no matter how hard he hit it, but when Fisher
When the magic circuit on my hand lit up, the ring actually began to emit a tiny shimmer of light, but Fisher's magic power did not leave any trace on it.
This strange discovery caught Fisher's attention, and his experience as a magician gave him some inspiration about the use of this relic.
"I think I know what this thing is for..."
"Huh? Does it have any effect?"
Fisher didn't say anything, but took the carving knife from the magic material. Fisher took a little of the magic material, and then began to carve a simple word under Emhart's rather surprised gaze.
Ring magic.
"Wait, what are you doing?! Carving magic on the relics at will may cause damage to the relics..."
"Don't worry, let me give it a try."
It didn't take long for Fisher to carve out the one-ring magic. He chose the one-ring light magic [Illumination], then put the ring on his hand and pointed it at the night sky outside.
The moment the magic power was activated, a ray of light that was countless times more dazzling than usual burst out from the ring, almost blinding Emhardt and almost making him curse.
"Your mother, is this a ring of magic? Why are my eyes so bright?"
Fisher ignored his complaints at all, but he seemed very excited at this moment, because Emhardt was right, this was not the effect that the first-level magic should have at all. The lighting intensity had obviously reached the second-level magic.
Even to the level of three rings...
In other words, engraving magic on this ring can enhance the power of the engraving magic. This is the real effect of this relic!
Fisher looked down at the magic emblem that had just been engraved on the ring on his hand and slowly disappeared. Except for the little bit of leftover echoes and fluctuations in the world, the ring seemed to have never been engraved with magic, and there was no loss at all.
Fisher was even more amazed.
If Jesse had been asked to bring this thing back to Saint-Nali, it is estimated that this thing would have fetched a sky-high price in the circle of magicians.
You must know that material loss is a big problem in the magic world, and this ring can not only completely eliminate magic loss but even increase the power of magic. It is simply a relic specially designed for magicians.
Fisher put this ring on his hand with great treasure, as if he couldn't put it down, but in the process of wearing it, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a line of text engraved on the inside of the ring, which made Fisher feel that he couldn't put it down.
Sher's skin felt an obvious sunken feeling.
He frowned and took off the ring from his hand, pointing the ring at the light in the room. Under such light, the characters inside the ring were slowly revealed.
It was a line of text that Fisher found quite familiar yet unfamiliar. It said,
