Chapter 490: The Old Place

Raymond easily killed the first "question mark-level" ghost monster with the [Ghost Devouring] secret technique, and the painting style suddenly changed.

The dark cabin full of horror atmosphere has been transformed into a joyful scene of monster killing.

This mysterious map, which is beyond the current level to explore, has also become a real "chance map".

More than a dozen monsters came through the wall menacingly, and then one by one was devoured by Raymond.

The experience gauge of soul strength is visibly higher than the naked eye.

Calm returned to the cabin again.

......

When the crisis was resolved, Ilya blinked her eyes and sighed with a little curiosity: "Uncle, this is also the soul spell inherited by Hayens?" It's really powerful, it can directly devour such a high-level spirit body..."

"yes."

Raymond nodded, his eyes full of heat.

He looked at the dark cabin, and a greedy thought suddenly crossed his mind. There are more than a dozen "question mark-class" ghostly monsters in such a small area alone, so how many are there in the whole ship?

As far as he knew, the space of this wooden ship was ten thousand times wider than what he saw now, and the density X area, the number of monsters was definitely considerable.

"A monster has more than 20,000 soul strengths, and there are not so many demigods in the outside world... If I really have 180,000 ghosts, wouldn't my spiritual power be able to advance to the 'Divine Venerable Realm'?" ”

Raymond roughly estimated the benefits of killing monsters in his heart, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

At this moment, this "Ship of Theseus" was like a high-level treasure pavilion in his eyes that no one had ever set foot in, full of unknowns and surprises.

My goodness...

This is the "divine ship" that sailed from ancient myths and civilizations to the present.

Other things can decay, but special materials such as "artifacts" are not so easy to annihilate. Maybe in the corner of a certain cabin, there is an artifact that has been sealed for endless years?

However, the only thing to be afraid of is that there are certain mysterious beings on this ship that are still "alive".

Theoretically, the living creatures on this ship would have died long ago since ancient times, turning into ghostly monsters like the ones just now.

But when Enzo got vampire blood on the ship, it means that there must be a "living" vampire ancestor on this ship.

Raymond didn't dare to guarantee that the Ancestor of the Blood Clan had no ill will towards their arrival, so everything had to be done with caution.

......

At this time, Erin, who was in a coma, suddenly woke up.

Ilya discovered this first, with a slight look of watching the play, pointed at Erin, and exhaled softly: "Uncle, your little lover is awake..."

"Huh?!"

Erin listened to the voices, and a flash of alarm flashed across her face, especially the dark cabin also gave her an inexplicable sense of terror.

She quickly sat up, and the blanket covered by her body also slipped to the ground, and the wind was slightly cool. At this time, the girl was even more frightened, and quickly covered her body.

"Erin, are you awake?"

Raymond walked over, a gentle smile on his lips.

Judging from her panicked expression now, the evil god's will really left.

Erin saw Raymond's familiar face clearly, and the luster in her eyes suddenly lit up. After being stunned for a moment, she shouted out a long-lost title: "Thunder... Raymond? ”

I don't know why, after she saw Raymond again, the panic in her heart just now suddenly disappeared, but there was a sense of "bang" like a deer crashing.

"Well, it's me!"

It's a name buried deep in memory.

Raymond heard Erin call him "Raymond", as if he had returned to the time when he was at Phillip Academy in the Black Sea.

At that time, this kind and quiet girl always looked like this. Looking back now, that time carries too many good memories for the two of them.

Raymond was overjoyed and asked, "Erin, have you regained your memory?" ”

"Recover your memory?"

Erin was stunned and looked a little overwhelmed.

As a result of this stimulus, some images of shattered memories flooded into my mind. She felt that her brain was a little confused, her eyes trembled violently, and she asked, "Raymond, where is this?" I... What about the clothes? ”

She clearly remembered that when Philip led the annihilation of the battle, Raymond took her and tried to escape, but was finally stopped by the enemy. His kendo teacher, "Blind Swordsman" Eriksson, also dies trying to save them...

She doesn't remember the rest of the story, only some sporadic pictures.

She felt as if she had had a long dream, in which she became an admiral and killed many, many pirates on an endless sea...

But that wasn't what she wanted to do, as if there was another soul in her body who kept saying something, and then she fell into a deep sleep.

Then, the dream awoke.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Raymond and a very beautiful woman.

Raymond hurriedly explained: "That... We were temporarily trapped on a large ship. Then, I broke your clothes... Don't get me wrong, I'm here to save you..."

He recounted the incident in detail, starting from the time of Philip and continuing to talk about the previous rescue battle. Then the evil god descended on her body, and in order to drive out the evil god's will, she did something indescribable.

"It turns out that so many years have passed..."

Erin listened with a complicated expression.

In this telling, the missing fragments in her memory are also linked.

She thought it was a long dream, but when she woke up, she even thought they were still on Philip's ship island.

Unexpectedly, the things in the dream were real things.

Oh, my clothes, it turned out to be torn by Raymond...

He did that to save me, and it's not rude...

Thinking of this, Erin suddenly calmed down.

With Raymond by her side, she always felt an inexplicable sense of security. She felt that she wouldn't refuse anyway, so it would happen.

......

At this time, Raymond took out a set of his spare clothes from the space package, handed it to Erin, and said, "Erin, you put on the clothes first." There's a lot more to it, I'll tell you about it slowly..."

"Oh."

Erin obediently took the clothes, and glanced at Raymond.

Many years have passed, although her body has revealed the charm of maturity everywhere, but her mind is still the simple girl who was more than ten years old at the beginning. Looking at Raymond, a layer of red glow spread on her slender neck, and the shyness in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

Ilya on the side looked at Erin's pretty appearance and sighed slightly: "No wonder Uncle can't forget you..."

On this day,

Raymond regains his treasure.

......

Time flies.

Before they knew it, Raymond and the others had been trapped on the "Ship of Theseus" for three months.

Yes, trapped!

Before getting on the ship, he didn't think that this ship could only enter and not exit. When he regained his supernatural abilities and tried to jump off the ship and return to the sea of blood, he realized that there was a layer of ancient magic prohibition on the ship.

Then, the three of them began their journey of exploration of the "ship of Theseus".

Three months is not a short time, but because they are afraid of the "ancient beings" who may be alive on this ship, their exploration progress is very limited.

Moreover, even Raymond, who had seen the design drawings, only after going deep did he realize that the structure of this mythical ancient ship was far more complex than he imagined.

I thought it was some simple cabins, but I didn't want to have a lot of "overlapping" settings, and there were cabins in the cabins. According to a rough estimate, the number of cabins here may exceed 100,000...

Although the contents of the cabin have almost been rotted by time, judging by the structure of the house, the "Ship of Theseus" is not just a large and exaggerated ship, but more like a survival base.

Judging from the structure of the cabins, it may have been a "farm", a "dwelling", a library, a "council field"...

There are various indications that a large number of mythological humans lived here. They use this ship as a base to produce, create, reproduce... Ranwen

This "Ship of Theseus" is a small continent with all its organs!

Pity....

The "artifact" that Raymond was looking for was gone, and in three months, the biggest gain was the increase in soul strength.

Of course, they were also glad that the monsters they encountered were all ancient spirits. Otherwise, any other monster of the "question mark level" may be buried on the ship.

......

Although I was trapped, my life was not sad.

Erin regained her memory, and she was still the innocent little princess.

Her relationship with Ilya is also getting more and more harmonious.

The three of them get along day and night, and they are already familiar with each other, like glue.

On this isolated "ship of Theseus", in the dark world, they all rely on their own spiritual comfort.

Later, I got acquainted, and occasionally I would be slept with and do something shameless.

Ray is also happy and happy.

That's it

A few more months passed.

It took the three of them to finish searching the first floor of the bilge. And if Raymond remembers correctly, on the drawings, this ship has at least five floors...

After all, it is impossible to be trapped for a lifetime,

Raymond has not given up looking for a way to get off the ship.

He thought that if Enzo could get out alive back then, there must be a way for the ship to leave.

Now the only way Raymond can think of to get off the ship is to find the mysterious existence that passed on the "second-generation blood bloodline" to Enzo in the first place.

There is no other way but to look for it layer by layer.

......

Finally, the emperor lived up to his wishes.

Raymond found the cabin with the table that Enzo had said.

Of course, that was almost two years later.

It seems that this is a "civilization exhibition hall".

Raymond finally understood what Enzo had said that he had seen on the ship what the "ultimate of the world" was.

The reliefs on the walls of the cabin record the last crazy days of the mythical civilization, a story known as the "Battle of the Gods".

All races participated in the war, the sky was dark, and countless gods and demons fell...

That battle was the culprit that led to the end of the mythical civilization.

After that, it was the twilight of the gods.

The world is devastated, and these shattered fragments of the plane bury the gods who fell in the Great War.

As Raymond had guessed, it seemed that the "Great Voyage World" was just a broken plane, and these broken planes were just a cemetery where the corpses of the gods were buried.

The surviving high-ranking gods left and went to the upper level of the World Tree.

The shattered plane is like a fallen leaf that has drifted away from the trunk, and the law of high position is also missing, and the life of the remaining creatures in those worlds is becoming shorter and shorter, and there will never be a day when they will become gods...

The arrival of the three Raymonds also woke up a sleeping old man.

He tells stories that are like fables.

"The tree was beaten to pieces, and the leaves fell to the ground, spreading a thick layer. There is a boat made of twigs drifting aimlessly, carrying the hopes of all the peoples to find their way home..."

"Endless years have finally exterminated all the creatures on the ship, and the ghosts of this ship are the traces left by the dead..."

"There was only one vampire hiding in the shadows, and he was still breathing through dormancy. He crossed countless broken planes by boat, witnessing the passage of time and the change of civilization..."

"Every few thousand years, someone strays into this 'ship of Theseus'. That old vampire will give these juniors from all planes some 'chances'... Let the mythical civilization continue in another way. ”

"He is an old man forgotten by time, he has lived too long, so far that he almost forgets his existence..."

"He is the last witness of a mythical civilization, a traveler in the infinite shattered plane..."

“...”

The old man of the Blood Clan, who had lived from the "Mythical Period" to the present, did not have any hostility, and even nagged a bit like a chatterbox.

In the old man's words, he felt that Raymond was not the best on board the ship in the last tens of thousands of years, but it was the most special one.

Most of the people with extraordinary rank and strength died under the siege of the ghosts on the ship.

And the weak lucky people (such as Enzo, who didn't encounter monsters all the time), he didn't even have the idea of meeting, so he gave the opportunity to send off the ship.

And Raymond was the only one who killed monsters all the way, from the sixth floor of the bilge to the first floor of the cabin.

However, the energy of the first ancestor of the blood clan also seemed to be limited, and after telling these stories, he had exhausted the energy he had accumulated after years of dormancy.

He disembarks the trio, and Raymond receives a parting gift from the ancestor.

He successfully advanced to the second generation of the Ancestor Bloodline.

......

On this day, the wind and the sun are beautiful.

In the vast sea, a small lifeboat floats.

Two women and a man huddled into the boat, enjoying the long-lost sunbathing.

Like vampires who have not seen the light for many years, the skin of all three of them is a little white and abnormal.

Anyway, there are no outsiders, the two daughters are dressed coolly, a large area of skin is exposed to the sun, and thousands of pores are comfortable.

"Oops, there's finally no smell of blood in the air..."

Ilya sniffed, greedily breathing in the air with a hint of the smell of the sea.

She crawled lazily, enjoying the warm sunlight and gentle sea breeze, and sighed: "I didn't expect us to stay on the 'ship of Theseus' for more than two years..."

Erin turned over, motioned for Raymond to help her apply the sunscreen on her back, and asked, "Raymond, where the hell are we now?" I've been sailing for most of the day, and I haven't seen a single person..."

Raymond said while helping the second daughter smear, "I don't know. But the senior said that he sent us back to the original plane, and I think we must be in some remote corner of the Endless Sea now. ”

The phone bug he carried with him had a limited communication distance, so he tried to contact his friends in the "Ghost Pack", but the phone bug showed that the distance was beyond the contact range.

Thinking about it, now they probably have to find a human territory first, and use advanced communication equipment reinforced by signals to do long-distance communication.

However, it seems that their location may really be in a very remote place.

Otherwise, the ultra-long-distance phone bug made by Colin will not be unreachable.

......

It was also a coincidence that not long after they were drifting on the sea, they encountered a caravan on a long voyage.

The three Raymonds were rescued as survivors of a shipwreck.

After boarding the ship, they inquired about the location.

Then, a big surprise.

"May I ask this steward, what sea area is this?"

"This is the waters near 'Orn'."

"Orn?"

"Yes, the domain of the Grand Duke of Aoun. We are a merchant ship of the 'Blackwater Chamber of Commerce', and we are going to the 'Tianlan Royal Capital'. Where are you three going? ”

"Tianlan Wangdu? Is this the 'Black Sea'? ”

"yes..."
