Ding! A prompt came from the system: Do you want to accept the mission—Barton’s commission?
Chu Nan naturally chose to answer in the affirmative.
"But I am a ghost, where did this thing come from..." Barton soon said worriedly.
"Hmm..." Chu Nan thought for a moment and said, "It's okay if I tell her your name." Chu Nan thought, anyway, he only needs the mermaid's proof.
"That's fine, I hope she can still remember my name." Barton said with a bit of anticipation and a bit of sadness.
"It's just..." Chu Nan felt a little embarrassed again, "What about those Red Skull pirates outside?"
Now the Red Skull pirates have surrounded the entire lighthouse, and Chu Nan can't get out at all.
"I can help you with this." Barton said, "I see you have a torch or something like that on you. Give me one."
Chu Nan was overjoyed, and immediately took out a torch from his backpack, and handed it to Barton. Then he took out a second torch, but Barton shook his head and said: "My magic power is limited, and I have used most of it to light it today."
This is a lighthouse, I'm afraid it can only give a torch the sacred fire to drive away evil."
As soon as Barton finished speaking, there was a "whoosh" and a flame shot up from the torch.
When Chu Nan looked at the torch that had returned to his hand, even the name of the item had been changed, turning into a torch burning with sacred flames.
Barton finally warned: "Your torch can burn for as long as it used to, and it can burn for as long now, so please pay attention to the time. If it doesn't work, don't force it. I hope you can come back safely."
"Damn, this torch can only burn for 10 minutes!" Chu Nan was so anxious that he immediately rushed to the spiral staircase under the iron cover. On the way, he tried to use the torch with the sacred flame to light a new one.
Torch, but found that this little cleverness didn't work, so he had to give up and accept the fact that it would take 10 minutes.
Chu Nan rushed outside the lighthouse in a hurry. The group of Red Skull pirates were still outside, and the thick fog was also there. However, after Chu Nan had this torch, he became more courageous, and then quickly walked towards the place where the singing came.
ran away.
As soon as the group of red-skull pirates saw Chu Nan approaching, they first made a series of intensive "ka-ka-ka" sounds, and the pairs of strange red eyes in the thick fog kept flashing. Unfortunately, when Chu Nan
When Nan Zhen approached them, they immediately panicked. The holy fire that kept beating in the sea breeze quickly drove away the strange fog nearby. The skeleton pirates seemed to have no place to rely on suddenly.
The earth disappeared like the wind.
Chu Nan was determined and continued to run quickly towards the place where the singing came from. Soon he reached the seaside, and the strange fog there also followed Chu Nan to the seaside, as if the torch in Chu Nan's hand was just burning.
Once it is destroyed, they will rush towards you like a tidal wave of madness.
I saw the legendary mermaid sitting quietly on a reef in the water at this moment, her golden fish body looming in the seawater, swaying slightly, when she noticed Chu Nan and the skeleton pirates approaching.
At that moment, he stopped singing and looked at Chu Nan warily.
Chu Nan looked up and down at the mermaid. She was indeed as beautiful as in a fairy tale, and her entire upper body was still naked. But... her beautiful black hair was hanging down, which happened to cover the two key positions.
Even though it was covered, her hair was still wet and stuck tightly to her snow-white skin, unable to be blown even by the sea breeze.
"Hey, you didn't show it at all~~" Chu Nan was quite disappointed, but it looked more interesting if he was half-covered. Fortunately, Chu Nan had the experience of reading countless "films" and took a deep breath.
, he immediately made up his mind and briefly recounted what happened to Barton. After all, time was very tight.
After hearing this, the mermaid became much less vigilant. She pondered for a moment and said, "I really want to remember that I saved a man named Barton, but that was a long time ago. He has been living here ever since."
On top of that lighthouse?"
"Yes."
"It's a pity that I can't leave the water." She lowered her beautiful eyes, stretched out a slender hand, and gently pulled on her fish. Immediately, a golden scale was peeled off and handed to Chu Nan.
.
Chu Nan felt happy, but then he said: "Can you give me another piece?"
The mermaid looked at Chu Nan doubtfully.
"It can be considered as a souvenir for me." Chu Nan said quickly.
I saw the mermaid saying: "I saw two more fishing boats coming in the distance. I'm going to stop them from entering this sea area." Then, with a splash, she quickly got into the sea.
Chu Nan was about to cry but had no tears. He looked at the golden scale in the palm of his hand, which was half the size of a palm. He wanted to take the scale as his own and give it to scholar Bailey, but when he thought about the lighthouse
Button, he relented, even though he was just an NPC.
"Hey... forget it, I'll think of another solution for the other piece." Chu Nan decided in his heart, and then immediately turned around and left. At the same time, he looked at the time. When he saw this, his heart skipped a beat.
Oh my god, there are only 3 minutes left!
He hurriedly ran towards the lighthouse as if he was dying, and the strange fog with red eyes continued to follow Chu Nan.
Run quickly, step quickly!
Chu Nan had already used all the things that could speed him up. Finally, at the last moment when the torch burned out, he reached the lighting range of the blazing holy fire above the lighthouse.
Chu Nan breathed a sigh of relief, then climbed back up to the lighthouse slowly, and then handed the golden scales to Barton with some reluctance. Barton burst into tears of gratitude: "Thank you so much, I simply can't repay you."
, Although I don’t have anything valuable, I have lived in this lighthouse for so long, and I know every corner of this lighthouse very clearly. There is a hidden compartment in the stone under the foot of the bed.
There is a map inside. I don’t know what the map is used for, but since it is hidden so carefully, it must be very precious. Take it and consider it as a thank you gift from me."
Map? Chu Nan suddenly felt happy and quickly ran towards the wooden bed. He touched a slightly protruding stone on the left side of the bed. He quickly pried it up and the stone was lifted up.
, I saw a very old sheepskin map pressed under the stone, and Chu Nan immediately picked it up.
Incomplete Nautical Chart: This looks like part of a Nautical Chart that requires other parts to be assembled.
What a cheat!!
Chu Nan was quite disappointed, but when he opened the map, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a mark in the upper right corner of the map, where a red skull was clearly drawn.
