Chapter 47: Ancient Weapons
"Of course, if you can really help me get the treasure chart... And luckily, if I can make it back alive from the Nightmare Ghost, then I'll give you another big gift. β
Anna tried to make her tone as relaxed as possible,
But Raymond heard a generous determination to die.
She was afraid that her conditions were not enough to convince Raymond,
Finally, another killer feature was thrown.
"According to the notes handed down by my ancestors... There is a 'Devil Fruit' in that ruin. If I come out alive, this fruit can be given to you as well! β
What the!!!!
How can it be?!!!
It can't be fake, right?
"Devil Fruits?"
Hearing this term,
Raymond couldn't help but look shocked.
There are indeed countless treasures buried in the "Nightmare Ghost",
But in his previous life, he had never heard of any ancient ruins in that sea.
There are no Devil Fruits at all!
Could it be that players haven't explored deep enough?
Or are there hidden copies that haven't been discovered?
He may hesitate to use just an advanced formula for a golden potion,
You can hear this devil fruit,
now
He was genuinely moved.
This is a super prop that the game in the previous life played highly, claiming that no matter what series, starting with a million US knives, and capping 100 million acquisitions...
And
The "Nightmare Ghost" may be lifeless for others,
But for Raymond...
It's just a high-level dungeon with both risks and gains.
......
After the killer feature is thrown,
Anna looked at Raymond with a lot of emotion,
Finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Raymond, what do you think of my conditions? Would you like to help me? β
Raymond didn't answer in a hurry, but asked tentatively: "The nightmare ghost you are talking about, is it the fog area three hundred nautical miles southwest of 'Norman Canyon'?" β
Anna nodded, "Hmm." β
As we all know, there is only one nightmare ghost in the Black Sea.
"It's the same place." A different color flashed in Raymond's eyes, and he must have thought about it.
He thought for a moment and asked cautiously, "That... Mentor Anna, can you tell me what exactly you're looking for in the ghosts? β
Devil Fruit will be sent when it is said,
Thinking about it a little,
The disappearance is somewhat unbelievable.
And he's really curious,
What the hell is something that is worth more than a Devil Fruit,
Is it worth her choice?
......
"You don't have to doubt what I just said... The notes left by my ancestors record that the Devil Fruit does exist. Of course, if I can come out of the ruins alive..."
Hearing this question, Anna seemed to be expected, and did not show the slightest discoloration.
"The Devil Fruit is precious, but for me, it can create a transcendent master at best... But I'm dealing with a whole huge national fleet, so... One Devil Fruit can't affect the big picture at all..."
No matter what the master is, in the face of a war at the national level, he is insignificant.
The power of the war ship island is devastating and destroying the world.
The defense system of the Tianlan Royal Capital is equipped with thousands of super artillery...
They can easily kill the best transcendents of the Black Sea.
Even...
And the Magic Crystal Cannon!
It is a kind of big killer weapon that even if a super master like Archduke Philip has comprehended the "Mystery Solution", he must avoid its edge.
This is not like in the game, as long as the level is reached, you can improve.
In the real world of great navigation, the transcendent needs to break through too many bottlenecks and comprehensions.
With the Devil Fruit, you can smoothly advance to the transcendental,
It doesn't mean that you can comprehend the "mystery", the "domineering", and the "domain"...
Even if Anna got the Devil Fruit,
She knew that it was impossible to create an extraordinary master with the ability to turn the tide in a short period of time.
Raymond agrees.
Super masters need talent, legacy, resources, and opportunities, all of which are indispensable.
As the overlord of the Black Sea, the Tianlan Kingdom
There may be many top-level transcendents who can destroy it in the Endless Sea,
but
There is no such thing as this part of the Black Sea!
Shallow water can't come out of the dragon,
There is no high-level transcendent inheritance in this sea area at all,
Even if Anna has a devil fruit,
She can't make a top-notch transcendent.
......
Pondering for a moment,
She finally spoke.
"So, the thing I'm looking for is... The legendary... Ancient Weapons! β
Anna looked at Raymond,
I don't know that there will be an inexplicable trust in my heart,
She told the secret she had hidden in her heart and had never shared with outsiders.
She added, "The Ancestor's treasure map contains a map and logbook of his entry into the Devil, so I had to get it before I could find the ancient weapon. That was my only hope of revenge. β
"Ancient weapons?"
Raymond was surprised to hear the word.
The name that can be called either some powerful god weapon in ancient times, or... It's really some kind of powerful weapon of war.
Legend has it that in ancient times, a certain civilization developed a brilliant technological civilization, and they created some super war weapons that could be so powerful that they could even destroy the world.
It is a terrifying weapon that can easily destroy a country and destroy all living beings in a sea area... It was a nightmare for all and a disaster for the whole world.
Later generations said that the reason for the collapse of that period of ancient civilization
It seems that because these weapons are too powerful,
Later, the rulers reaped the consequences,
Death in infighting, the collapse of civilization.
The term "ancient weapon" is like a god in the game, out of reach.
Players think that's just the background of the game,
I don't think anything that affects balance really exists in this world.
Raymond didn't expect it,
That's what Anna's goal is.
......
Raymond looked at Anna's resolute expression, and asked, "According to what you said, your ancestors didn't encounter the fog dissipation day that is rare in a hundred years, and they couldn't get out either... Didn't you think you couldn't get out if you went in? Still is... Are you sure? β
"Sure?"
Hearing this,
Anna's expression darkened,
She barely squeezed out a smile and said bitterly: "A great adventurer like an ancestor died before he escaped, who can be sure that he will come out of the 'Nightmare Sea' alive..."
Raymond heard the tragic meaning of these words, and was puzzled: "Then you are also..."
Anna's eyes flickered, and she looked like she wanted to say something.
"But..."
It was a long time before she spoke.
"I... There's no other way..."
......
That year, Anna was ten years old.
She watched the fall of the Campbell dynasty with her own eyes, and watched the royal capital fall into the flames of war, with the roar of artillery and countless casualties among her subjects...
Since then,
Anna learned to be strong.
All are entitled to retreat,
She was the only one who couldn't.
Fell, got up...
The fall hurt, I hid the tears in the corners of my eyes, and I stood up to encourage everyone to continue to fight.
......
"I have no other way."
The tone is heavy,
Anna uttered these words as if she had drained all her strength.
This red-haired royal sister who looks charming and moving is actually carrying too many burdens.
The hope of recovering the country, the expectations of the bereaved ministers, and the glory of the Campbell royal family all weighed on her shoulders alone.
The former Tianlan Dynasty had been overthrown for more than ten years, and the new regime had stabilized.
It's easier said than done to overthrow.
At the beginning, she chose to abandon the [Trickster] sequence with stronger combat,
And choose the Navigator sequence,
In order to enter the nightmare sea one day to have a little more chance to come out alive.
The high-purity [Magician] potion in Raymond's hand was actually left for her to awaken the transcendental.
But if you can't get that "ancient weapon",
There is no hope for the restoration of the country,
The golden sequence, don't do it.
......
Anna has never shown such a vulnerable side in front of outsiders,
She faced Raymond for some reason,
There is some kind of blind trust in my heart.
Anna herself couldn't tell where that trust came from...
I thought, probably because he saved himself.
Although I know that he speaks secretly, half-truths...
But this little man also brought himself a very wonderful feeling.
That feeling,
It's like a boat floating in a warm harbor,
Looking up at the starry sky,
In the darkness,
The little starlight you see,
Is that...
A ray of hope.
He resembles a heroic dragon slayer boy in a mythical story.
Even if you hear the taboo of "nightmare ghost", which anyone will frown,
He also always has a calm face,
Like a wise man with confidence.
......
γDing! Anna's opinion of you is +5.γ
"Huh... I didn't do anything, why did the favorability increase again? β
Raymond listened to the system prompt, a little confused.
Seeing that Anna's favorability of herself is getting higher and higher,
At this point,
A bold idea popped up from the bottom of his mind...
