Fangzheng did not find it strange at all that Tiria would cause trouble for Hecate.
In fact, ever since Hecate used Fangzheng's hand to torment Tiria for four days and three nights in the Shana world, Tiria had vowed to find a chance to take revenge. It was no wonder she was so angry. As Fangzheng's "younger sister", Tiria had always proclaimed that she would "always fight for her brother". But because she was tricked by Hecate, Tiria did not even make it to the final Battle of Creation. Or rather, when Fangzheng finished creating the new world, Tiria was still sleeping soundly on her bed.
This was a great humiliation to Tiria. She had long vowed that when she had the chance, she would definitely get back at Hecate!
And now, it seemed that Tiria had finally found a chance to cause trouble.
It was true that Hecate was a witch, and a Great Shaman who served the God of Creation, but the problem was …. She had nothing to do with the Goddess of this world. In Fangzheng's opinion, with Hecate's loyalty to the Snake of Sacrifice, she obviously would not sing praises for the Goddess of Order of this world. But now, Tiria actually wanted Hecate to help these humans hold a ceremony to put their souls to rest ….
Little girl, your desire to live is really weak.
Fangzheng sighed helplessly as he silently lit a lamp for Lea in his heart. He could tell that although Hecate appeared reticent on the surface, she was, in fact, very intelligent. However, Hecate had always been aloof. Or rather, other than the sacrificial snake, she did not care about anything else. Therefore, she gave off a feeling that it was not easy to get close to her.
But that did not mean that she did not care. You can do whatever you want to her.
As the saying goes, even a clay Bodhisattva has a temper.
This time, Tiria had messed with Hecate. The little girl would definitely not react on the surface, but when the matter was over, she would find an opening to launch a series of attacks ….
But forget it. After all, it's just a little trouble. There's nothing to be concerned about.
As Fangzheng expected, after he conveyed this request to Hecate, the Great Shaman only pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement.
"As you wish, Alliance Master."
At the same time, Fangzheng knew that Tiria had gone overboard again.
However, Tiria didn't care. With her relationship with Hecate, she was already on the verge of death. Besides, so what if she was defeated by Hecate's combo? At most, he could find a chance to do it again after reviving. In any case, the disciple of the red world was immortal, so why should he be afraid of this?
The sky gradually darkened.
The gloomy clouds shrouded the sky, making the distant sea look even darker. Even though it was only afternoon, it felt like night was about to fall. The sailors shouted the number as they manoeuvred the ship along the course, and though it was cold outside, no one returned to the cabin.
"I say, what do they mean by this?"
Oglan crossed his arms and complained in dissatisfaction as he looked at the sailors who were controlling the sails and shouting.
"It's going to rain soon. What are they doing here? Also, why did you ask us to come out as well? "
"Please don't worry, Miss Oglan."
After a few days of getting along, Captain Fox had figured out the young lady's temperament. He came over with a smile and comforted her.
"This is the rule. All ships that come to the Gulf of the Dead are not allowed to return to their cabins before leaving the Gulf of the Dead. Please don't worry. Although the weather here looks like it's going to rain soon, the weather here has been like this for hundreds of years. In fact, there's no place in this area that's calmer than the Gulf of the Dead."
"What's going on?"
Oglan asked curiously. After being left out in the cold for a few days, this young lady had finally figured it out. The other party obviously wouldn't turn around and send them back for the sake of the Platinum Family. Therefore, they could only follow Fangzheng and the others. Although Oglan was arrogant, she knew how to adapt to the circumstances. Since they were already on this pirate ship, since they couldn't resist, they might as well enjoy it ….
"It's like this …."
This was obviously not the first time Captain Fox had introduced the history of the Gulf of the Dead to his guests. He immediately became a tour guide with ease.
"It all started a hundred years ago. At that time, because of the invention of the magic engine, a new Great Voyage Era was started. Many adventurers and sailing fleets of various countries wanted to find a brand new land of order. Due to the excellent geographical location of the Gulf of the Dead, it was built into a large supply port during that period. At that time, this place was called the 'Golden Bay'. There were ships and fleets everywhere …. "
Fox couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic. When the magic engine was first invented, it set off the craze of the Great Voyage Era. It was the story that almost every sailor yearned for. In that era, it was common to hear of people discovering mysterious ruins hidden on isolated islands overseas, or finding lost divine weapons or countless treasures.
But unfortunately …. Things always move in the opposite direction when pushed to the extreme.
"… No one knows the specifics. In short, one day, a fleet arrived at the Golden Bay. I heard that they found lost treasures overseas. At that time, many people saw chests of jewels and gold being carried down from those ships. "
Fox swallowed his saliva as he danced around. When he heard this, Oglan's eyes widened in surprise.
"There's actually someone who's moving so many treasures in public? They must be sick in the head! "
As the future star of the Platinum Family, although Oglan's EQ might be worrying, his IQ was definitely not lacking. Of course, he understood what it meant to not show off one's wealth. Besides, the situation at the Golden Bay at that time was very clear from Fox's description. Almost all forces were there. Even if you were happy with a huge amount of wealth, there was no need to show it off in public.
"The weirder part is yet to come."
Fawkes had gotten carried away and was dancing with joy.
"After those people put the chests on the dock, they left immediately. But the strange thing was, no one came to transport the goods. At first, everyone was just curious. After all, the entire Golden Bay was very mobile at that time, and there were too many people. Maybe there was some problem with the handover. At that time, the Golden Bay even sent people to look after the treasures. After all, a force that could bring back so many treasures was definitely not someone they could afford to offend. But then, the situation changed …. "
At this point, Captain Fox's voice became much softer. Hearing this, not only Oglan, but even Fangzheng, Tiria, and Nunnally looked at Captain Fox curiously. They were obviously very interested in this story.
"… One or two days passed, but no one came to ask about the pile of treasures. Later, someone went to check, but they found that there was no trace of that fleet on the records. It was as if they had never existed! This surprised all the forces in the Golden Bay at that time. But after that, they were immediately tempted by the pile of treasures …. As I said, the Golden Bay at that time was a mixture of good and bad people. Although it was nominally part of the Kingdom of the Saints, it was more like a neutral zone, and there were no laws or regulations. Soon, someone couldn't help but take action. They wanted to snatch the treasures, and then … a terrible thing happened …. "
As he spoke, even Fawkes revealed a fearful expression.
"First, one of the big forces couldn't help but send people to try to snatch the treasures by force. They fought with the guards guarding the treasures. In the process of the fight, the chests containing the treasures were all broken, and all kinds of treasures were revealed. After seeing the treasures, everyone went crazy. They started a crazy massacre as if they were possessed. All the fleets docked in the Golden Bay at that time joined in the massacre …. "
"Who won in the end?"
Hearing this, Oglan felt a chill all over her body. Although Fox was not strictly speaking a master storyteller, the scene at that time was still quite terrifying to her.
"There was no winner."
"What do you mean?"
Oglan was stunned.
"What do you mean there was no winner? Someone must have survived, right? "
"No."
Fox shook his head, and his expression became more and more solemn.
"No one knew what happened at that time. They only knew that after the fleets returned to the Golden Bay, they only saw a ground full of corpses and the wreckage of the sunken fleets. No one even knows what happened in the Golden Bay that night. Everything I'm talking about is clues found in the records and diaries at the port at that time …. "
As he spoke, Fox sighed.
"After that, there were many incidents of ships inexplicably sinking and disappearing, so this place was gradually abandoned. The Golden Bay was also renamed the Bay of the Dead. "
"But you still haven't said. What does this have to do with not allowing us to enter the cabin?"
"It's a custom, Miss Oglan."
Fox spread out his hands and smiled bitterly.
"I heard that the souls of the dead are still wandering in this area. They're still looking for the treasures, so they'll carefully check the cabins of every ship. If they find any living creatures, they'll think that the other party has robbed them of their treasures, and they'll drag the creatures into the sea. That's why there's this custom here. Every time we arrive at the Bay of the Dead, all of us have to go on deck. Otherwise …. "
"…."
Upon hearing this, Ogland shuddered. She gazed at the pitch-black hatch and instinctively took two steps back.
At that moment, the voice of a sailor came from not far away.
