This island, which had lost its natural chains, was already considered an island of death. It didn't look like a good place to hide treasures. Why did Lucas choose to hide his treasures here? Also, what exactly was his treasure? Could it be that he was referring to these ships?
Angor walked into the graveyard with his head full of questions.
There were so many ships here that Angor couldn't see the end of them. Some of them were not damaged at all. If they weren't stuck in a pile of ships, they could still move on.
Angor first checked the stranded ship.
"The Winter Hunt." It was an exploration ship with its name painted on the hull. The bow of the ship looked like a ferocious octopus.
The Winter Hunt was heavily damaged. Angor only took a few steps on the deck and left a big hole in it. The ship was empty. There were no corpses. It was as clean as a ship that never left the port.
Angor searched several more ships along the coast. Everything was the same as the Winter Hunt.
The cabins were empty. There were obvious signs of goods being moved away. There were no corpses either. This meant most of the ships were not like the Night Lotus, which suffered a great loss of crew members. The empty cabins were probably empty because the people on the ships moved the goods away on their own.
As for where they went … Angor needed to find out more.
He checked a dozen ships around the coast and found the same information. There were still some things he missed. For example, Angor found a logbook on a ship called "Osenbrook".
The owner of the logbook did not record his name. However, most of the things recorded in the logbook were about his daily life. Angor could tell that the owner was an apprentice navigator.
There was not much useful information in the logbook, but it clearly recorded how the Osenbrook arrived at this place.
[On the second day of the Slumber Moon, the Osenbrook arrived at Gear Sea Abyss. Our professor warned the captain that the Slumber Moon was the peak period of the Gear Sea Abyss, so this route was too dangerous. But Baron Parva, that detestable fatty, actually stubbornly took this route just to see his lover as soon as possible? How ridiculous! Sigh … I hope the God of Ocean has mercy on us. I hope everything goes well. ]
[Emergency! Emergency! He had just experienced something terrifying! The ship suddenly lost its sense of direction in a fog. Most importantly, we had arrived at a strange sea. The sea here was dead! And there were so many ships around, so many ships … If he guessed correctly, this was the graveyard of ships, the legendary burial ground. There were many ships that had disappeared in the past. It turned out that they did not fall into the abyss, but came to this sea of death. "
"The Orsenbrook is trapped in the graveyard, unable to move. The captain decided to get off the ship and look for a way out. Perhaps he could see if there were any good ships on the outskirts and then sail away. All of us agreed, except for that Baron Parva. He was so scared that he hid in his room. He even took all the resources and wanted us to serve him. How despicable! "
"No … There's no way out. This is a sealed sea. We took a small boat, which we had found with great difficulty, but ended up in the thick fog of the open sea, and not long after, we came back here. We walked around the fog and found that the island was the center of the sea of death. We have no choice but to return. Perhaps we can only stay here in the future … I miss home so much, I miss my mother so much. "
"… It's another pale day. "
"The people who went to explore the island have returned. They said that this is not only the sea of death, but also the graveyard of ships. Even this island is a dead island. The earth is scorched earth, the plants are withered trees, and there is no clean water. We are finished … "
The next few days of blank pages appeared in the log. Three days later, the trainee navigator finally wrote again.
"Today, I received the only good news that made me happy in so many days. That fat pig, Baron Parva, is dead! It's because of him that we ended up in this state. He deserved it! … But the captain and the mentor were troubled. Who killed Baron Parva? Why did he have such a look of fear on his face? "
"Life still has to go on. Although there is no fertile land or fresh water, we found that many of the ships were rich in resources. There were even Crimson Trees planted on the ships. We should be able to hold on for a while. I hope that the God of the Sea will take pity on us and let us leave this place. "
Another period of time passed.
"People are dying one after another. How did they die? The next one, may be my turn. "
That was the last sentence in the log. Angor witnessed how the owner of the log went from despair to hope, and from hope to despair again. From the log, Angor could imagine how painful and desperate it must have been.
The log was found in a corner of the deck of Orsenbrook. Perhaps the owner accidentally lost it, or maybe he left it here on purpose. But judging from the dusty cover, it must have been many years ago.
He must have been dead for many years, and how he died was a mystery.
Angor sighed and continued to search for other ships. He saw skeletons on some of the ships. Judging from the clothes on the skeletons, they all came from different places and different eras.
For example, The Feather Fan was built three thousand years ago, while The Night Lotus was only three hundred years old.
Because of the skeletons, Angor found many iron necklaces, as well as the captain's log in the captain's room. After combining all the information he found, he found something common among all the ships.
Most of the ships came here from Gear Sea Abyss. There were also ships from Storm Waters, Mist Zones, and Sentry Routes, but only a few.
Most of them came from Gear Sea Abyss.
Gear Sea Abyss was a familiar name to Angor. Helen once told him about the legend of Gear Sea Abyss. She said that from time to time, ships would sink into the endless sea in the Gear Sea Abyss, but no one knew why they sank. Since the ships didn't go missing often, Gear Sea Abyss was one of the possible routes.
Angor floated in the air and looked at the endless graveyard of ships. Maybe the apprentice navigator was right. The ships that went missing in Gear Sea Abyss didn't sink into the abyss. Instead, they came here.
Angor searched for a few more ships and found similar clues. However, he found a map of Devil's Water in the hands of a skeleton on one of the ships.
It wasn't a complete map. It only recorded a small area, which happened to be near Gear Sea Abyss.
Angor carefully circled the routes that led to this place and noticed something surprising. All the sea areas were concentrated in one area.
Storm Waters, Mist Zones, Sentry Routes, and Sentry Routes were all close to Gear Sea Abyss.
At the center of this area, Angor saw a familiar name.
Silver Palm Isle.
It was an island occupied by Leviathan.
Angor didn't think that Leviathan had anything to do with this dead sea. Because the Leviathan had only recently moved to Silver Palm Island, and these ships had been here for thousands of years.
But Angor did not believe that there was something wrong with Silver Palm Island. Even the Leviathan had taken over the island, which was also the center of this area where many ships went missing. Could there really be some kind of secret hidden in the island?
But even if there were secrets, he did not plan to explore them. He did not even know what this strange island was.
Angor kept flying around the graveyard. There were so many ships that he couldn't find them all. He had to rely on luck.
Suddenly, he saw a very familiar cargo ship among a pile of ships floating on the sea.
The shape of the ship was very similar to The Limpet. When he arrived at the deck of the ship and saw the familiar markings, he quickly understood what was going on.
It was a ship from the White Clam Shipping Company! Even a ship with a Magus background had been destroyed here!
Angor suddenly remembered that the crew member of the Night Lotus mentioned that he saw a mysterious man named "Ruthless King". Could he be the guardian wizard of this ship?
Water cantrips could create water, and Gourmet cantrips could make mana bread. Supernaturals could live for a long time.
But a "Ruthless King" who could survive for hundreds of years must be quite strong. Maybe he could reach the level of a peak-level apprentice.
As for becoming a wizard, Angor didn't think about it. Most wizards could create plane passageways, so it wasn't hard for them to leave this place.
If there really was an apprentice still alive here … Perhaps Lucas' treasure had already fallen into the hands of the other party.
Angor landed on the White Clam Shipping Company's cargo ship. He wanted to see if he could find any information about the guardian wizard of this ship. Normally, the adepts in charge would be on the fourth level above the deck.
Angor flew inside and immediately stopped in his tracks.
The room was clean, much cleaner than any of the cabins he had been to before. This was one of the characteristics of White Clam Shipping Company. The guardian's room would always have a self-cleaning effect.
Angor stopped because there was someone sitting behind a desk in front of him.
The robe covered the person's face, making it look like someone was sitting there with his head lowered.
However, Angor couldn't sense any life energy coming from the person. He reached out with a Hand of Spell and slowly lifted the hood of the robe.
A ghastly white skeleton was revealed.
Could it be that this skeleton was the one overseeing this place? Angor furrowed his eyebrows. If this was really the skeleton, then he was wrong about his assumption.
Puzzled, he began to examine the skeleton. The robe was made by Floating Mech City, and it still looked brand new after so many years. The circulation function on it was still there.
The skeleton itself carried a small energy wave, and there was a single-use space capsule on it. Angor was almost certain that this person was a supernatural when he or she was alive.
If he wasn't mistaken, he or she was the guardian of this ship.
But how did he or she die? Someone who could guard a ship must have learned how to make water and food. How did he or she die when he or she didn't have to worry about food and clothing?
A supernatural's soul would be born when he or she died, but there weren't any wandering souls around here.
As Angor pondered, something unexpected happened.
