151 - Information in Light and Shadow (I)

"Brother...... Is the big fox okay? Pease trotted in from behind the door and looked at the fox on the bed.

"It's fine. …… Thank you for your care, Elder. Elder Fishman also walked in through the door, making the room look crowded.

"Helping a friend is the way it should be...... It looks like it's restored, it's amazing. Elder Fishman looked at Ollie with some surprise as he stopped shaking on the bed and began to breathe steadily. Let's go to the big house and give the little guy a little rest. ”

"Well......" Wille got up from the side of the bed and went with the others to the big house.

"Brother Weir, I want to stay and take care of the big fox...... All right? Pease stood in the doorway and looked at the fox on the bed.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Well, that's fine, then I'll take care of Ollie. Vere patted Pease on the head.

Immediately, the group left the room, leaving behind an Ollie lying asleep on his back on his bed, and Pease, who was staring at his tail.

Leaving the hut where Ollie was resting, the group followed the Fishman Elder to the big house.

As they sat down, Hierro had finished himself, dressed in a dry outfit and straightened his beard to make them look less messy.

A chart was spread out on the table in the middle, and the Fishman Elder looked into it and nodded slightly.

"I don't know if you can go over where this chart is......" Elder Fishman paused slightly and looked at the three of them. You see, this location is in the middle of the three archipelagos, and it is where the glowing currents live. The fish-man nodded in the middle, "Here, is the center of the three seals...... You see. ”

Elder Fishman made comparisons on the drawings, from the temple in Fish-Man Island, to the Tiger Shark Reef on Monkey Island, to the underground seal on Pig-Man Island. It happened to be a triangle in the city, and the red fork, indicating the location of the treasure, happened to fall in the center of the whole triangle.

"See? If this drawing is really what it says above...... The Lost Ship...... The location of that legendary ship. Elder Fishman looked at the text on the chart and read it out with some hesitation, "If it's really there, you'd better find the real place to go." Because in the middle of the glowing current, if you don't follow the current, you will fall into the cycle of the archipelago, and you will never be able to leave...... It was never possible to get to this place. ”

"Since you said there were oddities here. Pointing to the triangular area, "Why don't we sail in this direction?" "Weel drew an arc on the drawing, and on the outside of the triangle, pointed from the other direction to the red mark in the middle.

Without waiting for Elder Fishman to speak, Boreth explained to Will, "The seal that Elder Fishman is talking about is made up of three seals...... They influence each other and suppress each other, and the area in between should be the cycle of sealing power generated under the influence of these three forcesβ€”that is, the fourth seal. ”

"The fourth seal? What do you mean? Including the fishman and Hierro, they all began to listen carefully to Boris's story.

Boris first glanced at the three people in surprise, "Well, I don't know much about it...... I also just found out about this, and we all say that there are three seals on this archipelago. ”

There was some starlight emanating from Boris's hands, and those lights dotted the locations of the three seals. "Here are the three seals."

A spanning arc lit up between the three points of light, connecting with each other, "This is the connection between the three seals...... Now, the energy is starting to flow. ”

"These rays ...... turned into a ...... Ball? Veil looked at the moving rays in front of him, and they moved from one point to another, not a plane, but a three-dimensional, increasing the light, and finally forming a huge ball of light in the midst of these three points. Wei Er suddenly frowned and stood up from his seat, "This ball of light is the fourth seal composed of three seals?!" ”

Boreth nodded, "I think that's how it should be...... Perhaps this is where the whole archipelago is to be sealed, or protected. ”

"I've never heard of anything like this, and besides, before I was locked up here, I hadn't heard the Star Spirit say anything about a fourth seal." Hierro looked at Boreth's map for a long time before he spoke.

Boreth lowered his head and stared at the chart, "I'm just guessing...... But I think it's very likely, maybe it's accidental, maybe someone did it deliberately...... But this kind of fourth seal that is deliberately formed by using three seals is really interesting. ”

"Even if we know that this is the case, how are we going to get into this seal and get the ship?" Will asked duly.

Boreth tapped his chin, "Look at those glowing currents, I guess, are the paths of these seals...... The rest of the place was either connected to the sea of the giant waves outside, or they had walked up to this huge ball of light...... Walking elsewhere will return to the archipelago from which you departed. Boreth looked at Elder Fishman and Captain Hierro, and they both nodded.

"Come back from inside...... This means that this seal barrier is more of an obstacle than something to kill......," Boris said, "I think that's why we can't walk through the islands...... I think there may have been a deliberate seal set up by someone who feared that the ship would be destroyed by the demons. ”

Hierro tucked the hair back of his head, "I've heard that the Star Spirits hid the ships in a place where demons could never reach them. ”

"Then there must be a way to get in, otherwise, wouldn't it be useless for the Star Spirits to seal that sea ship?" Weir insisted.

"I'm thinking about it too...... There will always be a common key to this thing. Everyone thinks about it, and if we only think about it, we may be able to solve the mystery of this seal. Boreth pondered.

"I have an idea...... You see. "Boris took the starlight and formed a halo on top of the chart." Here, here, and here......" Boris pointed out three points, the location of the three seals and the middle line, where the starlight was erected, forming the shape of three doors. "These three places may be the 'doors' that lead to them"

"So the High Priest means that as long as we can find the 'door,' then we can enter it, right?" The Fish-Man Elder's white eyebrows furrowed, "But how should I find this 'door'?" Fishmen often explore this area, but no one can find anything like a 'door' in an open sea. ”

"Elder, captain, you say, why did the glowing currents appear and disappear?" ”

"Those glowing currents are recorded as a gateway to the archipelago and a signal to monitor and trap demons. Only when the demon disappears or is sealed will the current glow guide ......"

"Wait, this is it." Before Elder Fishman could finish speaking, Wiel interrupted, "Boris said that this seal was set by three demons, Captain Hierro said that the ship was out of the reach of demons, and Elder you said that the current only exists when the demons disappear...... You combine these three conditions and think about them together. ”

All three of them fell into deep thought, and suddenly Bo Ruisi suddenly realized, "You mean, only when the demons on the archipelago are gone, and all three currents appear, will the passage to the sea ship appear?!" ”

"More than that, Boreth." "The key we are looking for is not useless, after all, it is clear in the books that we can only find the ship if we have three keys together...... I don't think that's a lie. ”

"So, boy, what the hell is going on?" Hierro said with a frown a little impatiently.

Weir smiled lightly, "Captain, I mean it very clearly, that is, only when all the conditions are in order, we can find the entrance to this place, and we can find the real sea ship. ”

"On what terms?" Elder Fishman also raised his head and looked at Vere.

Vere held out three fingers, "One, the key." Second, the demons are gone, and the currents are all gone...... This was confirmed very early. Hierro took out the key and placed it on the table, "What about the third point?" ”

"The third point...... The third point is to find the locks corresponding to the keys, just open them, and we can enter. "Wille was right.

The three people sitting at the table waved their hands together, "Hey~!" Then the three of them got together and continued to discuss what was possible.

Weir froze on the stool, "Huh? Am I not right? ”

"That's right! What's the use?! Hierro couldn't help but say, "What do you think we're looking for?" That's it! …… How exactly should this map be interpreted? What's going on with this mark? ”
