Chapter 197 Love is like a battlefield, whoever invests more is the loser
Antarctica!
The world's largest ice sheet, also known as the White Desert, is also known as the 'End of the World' in the magical world of Pirates of the Caribbean.
Whether in the real world or the magical world, Antarctica is the most inaccessible continent. In addition to severe cold and strong winds, it is also surrounded by hundreds of kilometers of ice shelves and floating ice.
There are tens of thousands of huge icebergs floating on the sea, causing great difficulties and dangers to navigation. Even experienced captains do not dare to step into the land of death in Antarctica.
But this did not trouble Barbossa. He was an old captain among old captains. His boating skills were breathtaking. He easily passed through the continuous icebergs and officially entered the so-called end of the world.
…
Strong winds hit, kicking up ice particles flying in the sky, and the plummeting temperature forced the crew to hide under the deck and huddle together for warmth. Tai Huang did not bother the crew anymore. This kind of ghost weather made the pirates wipe the deck to exercise, and riots would definitely occur.
“It’s so cold!”
In the warm captain's room, Russell was wrapped in a blanket and made a cup of hot tea, leisurely like an old man walking birds in the park.
The last person on this ship who should be cold is you!
Elizabeth and Turner were wrapped in a blanket and nestled tightly together, with only their two chattering heads exposed. The sharp drop in temperature on the sea made them shiver, so they shamelessly went to the captain's cabin to use the heater.
As for the reason why the captain's cabin is so warm, Russell discovered an oxygen-free and smoke-free heat generation method. He DIYed a simple iron plate bracket and let the thunder beast lie on the iron plate to discharge electric heating. After a while, the room was warm.
stand up.
Magic originates from life and is applied to life. Russell felt that his magical attainments had reached a higher level. It was like breaking through the shackles and pushing open the door to the magic palace, and his eyes suddenly opened up.
Realm +1!
At this moment, the light in the room suddenly dimmed. Russell stood up and pushed open the wooden window, only to see a giant iceberg directly in front of the Queen. It was this iceberg that blocked the sunlight and cast a large shadow.
The iceberg was split in two from the center, and the crack formed a wide canyon, with the smooth and radiant sections, as if it had been carved out by a giant with an axe.
Russell narrowed his eyes slightly. The iceberg was as majestic and dangerous as a knife or an axe. It was beyond human power. The other end was the so-called end of the world.
Sure enough, at the moment the Empress sailed into the strait, he was keenly aware of an invisible barrier appearing in front of him. The invisible dividing line was like a diaphragm, dividing the inside and outside of the canyon into two worlds. As the dark space rippled, the Empress broke in.
Another world.
"The end of the world..."
Russell whispered to himself, and the breeze that hit him was no longer cold. He threw off the blanket and strode towards the deck outside the cabin. Seeing this, Turner and Elizabeth hurriedly adjusted their clothes and followed.
The Iceberg Strait seems to be far away and endless, but in fact it is pitifully short in depth. It is just a door. Russell left the captain's cabin and came to the deck, and the Queen sailed out of the strait.
The Milky Way gathers, stars are dotted, a dark world where water and sky meet, stars all over the sky cast light spots, and the sea surface reflects starlight, making people unable to distinguish between the sky and the sea surface, as if they are traveling in the universe.
The Queen broke the tranquility, the starlight swayed from the bow, and the sea water burst into waves. Because the star map in the sky was chaotic and traceless, it was impossible to distinguish between east, west, north and south and could only drift with the tide.
Barbossa stood in front of the rudder, with ice shards still on the brim of his beard and hat. He patted a thick layer of ice shavings on his shoulders and put the frozen immortal monkey on it.
A little light came on, and it was Tia Doma, holding a lantern and standing on the side of the ship, looking at the starry sky on the sea.
Russell glanced at Tia Doma and then looked away. The latter seemed to be a bit unsociable and rarely appeared on the ship. He picked up the lantern beside him and walked towards Barbossa.
"Captain Barbossa, how is the research site going?"
Barbosa placed his hands on the nautical chart and turned it around a few times, then put it away and handed it to Russell: "It is not as accurate as modern nautical charts. It has completed its mission. The next voyage must be explored by ourselves."
"We have to figure it out on our own!?"
At this time, Turner and Elizabeth also came to the deck. After hearing Barbossa's words, Turner hurriedly said: "But there is no target to guide the direction here. How are we going to explore? How about you read the navigation chart carefully?"
"
A ship losing its direction is equivalent to a traveler getting lost in the desert, which is a very dangerous sign, but Barbossa didn't care: "Give up! The great Captain Zheng He did not come to the 'end of the world', he just charted the way to the entrance."
, it’s impossible to find the route even if the nautical chart is torn through.”
"Does that mean we're lost?"
"You can't say that. We don't even know the right direction, so why should we say we are lost?" Barbosa said with a meaningful smile.
Elizabeth was dumbfounded and didn't even know the correct direction. Wasn't she just lost?
"It's all that ugly woman's fault. If she had brought Jack back like she did with Barbossa, we wouldn't have to come here and suffer."
"Keep your voice down, she's on the deck, and you'll be in trouble if she hears you."
"Then I have to speak louder, ugly woman!"
"Don't be like this, I think...she is quite beautiful..."
Two awkward conversations came from the other side of the ship, and they were related to Tia Doma, but the content was very explosive. Everyone turned around and saw that they were short and fat Mediterranean and tall and thin with one eye. The person who said Tia Doma was beautiful was
Tall, thin and one-eyed.
Everyone was speechless, secretly thinking that this guy really had no eyesight. Because of her practice of witchcraft, Tia Doma had become neither human nor ghost, and had nothing to do with beauty.
Russell thought that One-Eye was right. Maybe Tia Doma was ugly, but Calypso was definitely stunningly beautiful. After all, she was a goddess in mythology, and her appearance wouldn't be much different with a little facelift.
"Because Barbossa is just dead, but Jack Sparrow's body and soul were imprisoned in the Demon Prison by Davy Jones. It is a punishment zone. He will neither die nor live. He will wander alone forever, which is the most tragic fate.
Nothing more than this." Tia Doma, who was mentioned by everyone, spoke up and answered Chubby Mediterranean's question.
After the words fell, there was silence on the deck, everyone lowered their heads and said nothing.
Russell asked by mistake: "Tia Doma, do you know where the trident of Poseidon, the Emperor of the Sea, is?"
Tia Doma's shoulders were shaken, and she turned around suddenly, looking at Russell with her narrowed eyes like poisonous snakes. Finally, she grinned, and black liquid slid down the corner of her mouth: "The Trident of the Sea Emperor... has the power to break all curses.
It is a sacred object. According to legend, if you get the trident, you will have the power to rule the ocean."
On the deck, everyone started talking in low voices. The power to rule the ocean fascinated everyone. They all pretended to count the ants with their heads down, but in fact they all raised their ears to eavesdrop.
"There is such a legend, so I want to ask you to verify it." Russell nodded. There was no trident mark on the navigation chart. He planned to get some information on Tia Doma.
Tia Doma stared deeply at Russell for a few seconds: "Wizard, do you also want to get the trident?"
"No, no, you misunderstood." Russell waved his hands repeatedly: "After all, the trident is an item of the gods. I don't have the guts to get it. I will be satisfied if I have the honor to look at it... That's it."
Tia Doma had an expression on her face that said, "You can't lie to me." She reached out and groped around on her body a few times, and took out a piece of parchment from somewhere.
"Although the trident is a legend and no one has ever seen the real thing, but..." Tia Doma drawled a long voice and stuffed the parchment into Russell's hand: "But the legend is not groundless. I happen to have one here.
The map of the location of the trident is not clear whether it is real or fake, you can try your luck."
Russell held the parchment and felt several greedy eyes focusing on him. He raised his head and all his sights disappeared instantly. He smiled without saying anything and sent the parchment into the space ring.
On the other side, Tia Doma turned around and walked back to the cabin. When passing by Turner, she groaned softly and raised her hands to touch his face and chest.
Nothing profound, just sexual harassment!
Although Calypso is currently sealed, the nature is easy to change. The goddess is famous for her flirtatious nature, and she especially loves to have sex with handsome men. How could she let go of Turner, a little piece of meat.
The same goes for the turmoil between her and Davy Jones. The handsome man and the beautiful woman fell in love at first sight. After the friction, they made a vow of eternal love before the heat dissipated, willing to be each other's wings.
The difference is that Davy Jones really fell in love at first sight and was willing to give Calypso wings, even at the cost of his freedom, and went ashore once every ten years.
But Calypso is different, the whole sea is filled with her wings.
You can't expect the goddess in Greek mythology to stay the same. Fraternity is the right way to open her up. But if she doesn't love Davy Jones, it's not necessarily true, but... there are so many handsome men on the sea, and she is regarded as the goddess of the sea.
Naturally, I want to love a few more.
In fact, Calypso did nothing wrong. Gods' worldview is different from that of humans. She just learned from her elders in the family to enjoy themselves in time.
Love is like a battlefield, whoever invests more is the loser.
Davy Jones got too involved in the drama, and the goddess couldn't hold it in, so she would put a hat on him every now and then, which led to tragic consequences for both of them.
Having said that, the goddess's private life is really chaotic. Even after being sealed, she has not restrained herself. She even had sex with Jack. Every man who sails on the sea has a chance to fall in love with her.
On the deck, her fiancé was sexually harassed, and Elizabeth instantly transformed into a British long-haired cat protecting her food, baring her teeth and claws to declare her sovereignty. Tia Doma smiled faintly, raised her eyebrows in a provocative look, wandered into the cabin, and disappeared into the shadows.
Elizabeth lost momentum, but won expression and defended territorial sovereignty.
Russell was very unhappy. The goddess was very flirtatious, but what did this mean? Why did she seduce Turner but not him?
