Old Gibbs gave full play to the shameless spirit of a pirate, and shamelessly ordered a glass of rum.

There was wine, there were gold coins, and so there was a story.

Old Gibbs spoke slowly.

"We were led by Captain Jack across the mountains and the sea."

"Oh, the boat we used to be is a charming lady, you've never seen a boat in your life that can throw all the boats behind your ass, and anyone who sees any boat in front of it can only look at the charming and sexy ass of the Black Pearl Lady."

Irin asked curiously, "What about the ship?" ”

Old Gibbs shrugged helplessly: "Heavy." ”

Irin: "......"

"Ah, we once reached the abyss of David Jones and brought Captain Jack back from the dead, and believe me, it's an adventure story you can't imagine in your lifetime."

"David Jones?"

"Oh, that poor octopus is dead too, hehe."

Irin: "......"

"We crossed the Caribbean and defeated the legendary Blackbeard, damn, that damn Blackbeard is a man with black sorcery, and in front of him, Captain Jack is as fragile as a woman on the island of Tetuga, hehe, but Blackbeard died in the end, in front of the Fountain of Youth."

"Old Gibbs bets that Blackbeard is in hell right now, and he's definitely still cursing Captain Jack for not dying well."

"Why?"

"Because poor Blackbeard has put his own daughter on Captain Jack's bed."

Irin: "......"

The more old Gibbs talked, the more energetic he became, after all, no one had sat quietly across from him for a long time, listening to him brag.

The feeling, ah, is evocative.

Old Gibbs poured another big sip of rum.

He suddenly felt that something was missing.

Yo, yes, it's a look of adoration.

He was obviously talking about the adventurous career of a legendary pirate, and the hairy little kid in front of him naturally had to show an expression of admiration, could it be that old Gibbs's storytelling level was not deep enough?

I thought about it.

Old Gibbs recalled one more thing.

"I remember that back then, Captain Jack offended most of the people in the Caribbean, whether it was the undead or the ghost ship, they were all provoked by Captain Jack, and finally one day, a damn undead led a large army back to trouble Captain Jack...... Hey, I bet you've never seen what an undead is. ”

"Oh, it's okay, I've seen a lot, you go on."

Old Gibbs: "......, ahem, ahem, ahem!" ”

The strong rum accidentally choked on his lungs, and old Gibbs coughed for a long time, and then looked at the young man in front of him with a strange look.

Boy, you've blown up all of a sudden, making it hard for me to keep blowing old man!

Do you understand what it means to have leeway?

Do you understand what it means to respect the old and love the young?

Do you know what modesty is?

Gibbs was a little annoyed.

Bite!

Irin smiled and shook his head, flipped his palm, and another gold coin landed on the table.

Gibbs's expression was pleasant, and inspiration came instantly, and he continued: "Old Gibbs still remembers that day, the sky and the earth cracked, the sea cracked, the earth shook, and the stars fell...... Oh, that view, I bet, you've never seen it...... At the end of the stars, we find the legendary Trident of Poseidon. ”

"And then?"

"Shattered by the captain. Moreover, there was an old guy who also died there. ”

Old Gibbs didn't know what to remember, and raised his glass to the empty void, and then raised his head and drank it all.

Finish another glass.

Combining the fragmentary story of old Gibbs with the information he had gathered so far, Irin asked the question, "Didn't I hear that the trident was glued?" ”

Old Gibbs suddenly moved closer mysteriously and beckoned to Irin.

Although this mysterious gesture made Irin feel a little funny, in order to satisfy the pleasure of old Gibbs's pretense, Irin still obediently put on a curious baby expression and leaned his head closer.

Old Gibbs lowered his voice.

"I'll tell you a secret, not many people know about this sea, in fact, it's Captain Jack who glues the trident back together, hehehehe-"

"Oh? Why? ”

"Because ......" Old Gibbs burped: "The thing Captain Jack regrets most in his life is to release a cunning guy from the human body, so, in order to make amends, Old Captain Jack personally set sail, found the fragments of the trident, and sealed the cunning guy in the sea with the sticky Poseidon Trident......"

"Hey, hey, that cunning fellow, it's called Ka-"

Before Old Gibbs could finish speaking, the temperature around him dropped sharply, and Irin's heart moved, and before Old Gibbs could say the name, he suddenly stretched out his hand and covered Old Gibbs's mouth.

Old Gibbs's eyes widened.

"Shhhh

Irein still has the "Calypso gaze" on his body, although now on land, Irein can no longer feel the feeling of being spied on, but if old Gibbs says that name in front of Irin, I'm afraid that something will happen.

Boom –

Syllable!

Old Gibbs stood up sharply, overturned the stool behind him, and sat down on the ground again, his expression full of horror.

"You, you, you...... Have you seen her? Are you cursed by her? ”

Old Gibbs sure enough, didn't dare to mention that name again.

"Sort of."

Unlike panicked old Gibbs, Irin had a very calm expression.

It's as if this curse was not on him.

"Could it be—" Old Gibbs didn't get up for a long time, he looked at Irin with a shocked expression, but in just a dozen seconds, he actually guessed Irin's intention, and in the voice of only two people, he roared: "No wonder! So you came to Old Gibbs to find the 'Trident'! I see! ”

Irin didn't explain much, just smiled and took out another gold coin and gently placed it on the table.

Old Gibbs stood up and sat down again.

But this time, he wasn't as anxious as before.

With wide eyes, he stared at the shiny gold coin on the table, and didn't dare to take it for a long time.

Finally.

Old Gibbs sighed: "It's a pity, even I, without Captain Jack, can't find the 'Trident', no one in this world can find it!" ”

"Why?"

"Hehe, you don't understand, Captain Jack hid the trident on a small island that was not marked on the nautical chart in order to prevent someone from releasing 'her', and only Captain Jack could find the trident!"

Old Gibbs spoke very firmly.

"And what about Captain Jack in your mouth?"

"Maybe you're dead, or maybe you're merry somewhere! Who knows! Since old Jack and Eliza - forget it, oh, it's a sad story, and you still don't want to know. ”

Old Gibbs stopped talking, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say it.

Eliza ——?

Elizabeth?

Wait a minute.

Irin suddenly remembered someone from the Swan family.

Elizabeth Swan?

Listening to the tone of old Gibbs, it seems that there is a big story in it?

Irin, silently, counted the gold coins in the storage space, don't look at Irin's generosity, but his gold coins are not rich enough to lose them.

This damn greedy pirate!

Irin was speechless.

Ignore the gossip for the time being, and concentrate on digging out some useful information.

Yi Rin thought for a moment, combined with all the information, it can be known that the current "Poseidon Trident", which was broken by Captain Jack and then re-glued and barely used, should be a key prop enough to influence the plot, if you can find a way to get it, whether it is for the heaviest clearance evaluation, or ...... All in all very useful.

So, Irin, reluctantly, asked, "Since it is not marked on the treasure map, how can Captain Jack find the Trident?" ”

Old Gibbs smiled: "Captain Jack is different, he is a man with a compass. ”

"Compass?"

Hearing this, Irin's expression instantly became strange.

"Yes, Captain Jack's compass, unlike ordinary compasses, that magical compass can point to the treasures that people desire the most, and those legendary adventure stories all rely on Captain Jack's compass...... Well? Damn rum, old Gibbs seems to be drunk? ”

Old Gibbs stared at the familiar little object in the palm of Irin's hand, and subconsciously rubbed his drunken eyes, no, rubbed and rubbed again, and almost rubbed blood, the compass that was exactly the same as in his memory was still in Irin's hand, and he didn't move.

"The compass!"

Old Gibbs's breath froze, his expression froze, and the old hand burst out with astonishing agility, snatching the compass from Irin's hand in one fell swoop.

The moment the compass changes hands, the hands on the compass spin wildly, never stopping.

"How can this compass be in your hand?"

For a while, Irin, unsure of how to explain the origin of this compass.

He always felt a little clever.

Captain Jack runs through the past of this world.

A small sa with a compass.

Old Gibbs, who once followed Captain Jack on his adventures.

"Is it because of Elizabeth Rin?"

The corners of Irin's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly complained in his heart.

How much hatred and resentment is this?

The love and hatred of the three lives and seven generations of the people?

It's too bloody, isn't it?

It turns out that this is the reason why the story mode must adopt the role-playing mode this time?

He just happened to put on the "Elizabeth Rin" vest, could it be because he was too unlucky?

Irin finally didn't explain the origin of the compass for the time being.

After all, Xiao Sa and old Gibbs will meet sooner or later.

Under the shocked expression of old Gibbs, Irin quickly snatched back the compass and retracted the storage space.

This is a key prop, and you can't lose it.

"I'm building a ship."

Irin smiled slightly.

"No way!"

Old Gibbs instantly understood what Irin meant, his head shook like a broken wave, and Irin was also worried that old Gibbs shook his head too violently and his cervical spine slipped off.

Irin took it in stride and took out another gold coin.

Old Gibbs gritted his teeth and his expression was very firm: "Impossible! I've long since quit being a pirate! I want to live a few more years! ”

Irin was silent and took out another one.

Old Gibbs began to struggle, and he couldn't take his eyes off the gold coins that had been piled up.

Another one.

“……”

Another one.

"But ......"

And another.

"Oh, my esteemed captain, experienced old Gibbs, at your service!"

Old Gibbs quickly put away the wad of gold coins and grinned.

After leaving.

Ruth couldn't help but ask, "Do you really believe that old guy will take us to find something...... 'Trident'?" ”

Not long ago, Yi Rin did not hide Ruth, and told Ruth most of the conversation with old Gibbs.

After all, Ruth will play a very important role in Rin's next plans.

We'll have to find a way to raise Ruth's loyalty a little more.

On the street, the two didn't dare to talk too much about intimate topics, so they returned to Swan Castle as quickly as possible.

It's late at night.

After staying up for two nights in a row, Irin's skin felt a lot worse, and he didn't bother to grind, and after taking a hot bath comfortably under the service of the servants, Irin's early lay down in a clean bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Next.

Another three poles in the day.

Only then did Irin discuss her next plan with Ruth.

"Wait!"

Ruth's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief, "Oh, my dear Rin, you must be joking. ”

Yi Rin shook his head with a solemn expression: "I'm not joking, this matter is very important, only if you do it, I can rest assured." ”

"Whew!" Ruth was inexplicably arrogant: "Rin, even if you praise the old lady like this, the old lady won't be happy!" ”

“……”

This arrogant expression almost made Irin blurt out three words: What are you-

Yi Rin glanced at Emperor Wang.

Ruth instantly understood, and also looked at Emperor Wang Tian, who was lying on the ground gnawing bones.

The two of them instantly understood the essence of the plan.

Ruth understood, but still hesitated: "However, there is no nautical chart, no route, and old Gibbs also said, he doesn't know where the thing he is looking for is." ”

"Huh."

Irin smiled slightly, and took out the [Compass from the Heart] from the storage space.

Then it was shoved into Ruth's hand.

The moment Ruth saw this compass, she suddenly felt a little familiar, and after a while, Ruth also recognized it: "Huh? Isn't this the saxophone's compass? How could it be in your hands? ”

"I'm a brilliant and charming pirate."

Ruth: "......"

After Ruth held the compass, the needle on the compass was erratic, and she couldn't point in the right direction at all.

"Is this compass broken?"

Ruth knocked a few times in frustration.

"No, that's not how this compass works."

Yi Rin smiled and explained to Ruth: "There seems to be some kind of black magic on this compass, which does not refer to the direction, but the person holding the compass, the most desired existence in his heart, if you seriously think about the 'Poseidon Trident', you should be able to use the compass to find the right direction." ”

Is it amazing?

Ruth is also amazed at the subtlety of the compass.

Without any nonsense, Ruth quickly closed her eyes and tried to use this compass from the heart.

"Desire—"

"Hmm~"

"The desire of the heart~"

Ruth had a word.

on the compass.

The hands shuddered violently, and then turned wildly, as if reflecting Ruth's inner stupidity from the side.

Finally.

The turning needle on the compass finally stopped, pointing in a certain direction without moving.

"Huh?"

Irin suddenly noticed that the pointer on the compass was pointing at him.

"In the direction behind me?"

Irin shifted his position.

The hand on the compass moved slowly, pointing back to Elizabeth Rin.

Irin: "......"

Ruth: "......"

Five minutes later.

Irin slowly circled Ruth five times.

He finally determined that the crux of the plan, Ruth's desire, had a little bit of a discrepancy.

The difference lies in the word "desire".

The Compass from the Heart, as stated in the description, must really be a "deep desire of the heart" to trigger the effect of the compass.

It is just a desire to stay on the surface of consciousness, and it does not count.

Just like when she was in the vast sea, Irin also desperately remembered Ruth's skillful technique, which could almost be regarded as self-hypnosis, before using the compass to locate Ruth's location.

But this method requires a certain level of willpower, and according to Irin's estimation, Ruth's character on the wall cannot replicate Irin's psychological journey of finding Ruth in the first place.

"What should I do?"

He remembered the deal with Calypso and began to have a headache.

If he had gone to the sea to look for it, he would never have been able to hide from Calypso's prying eyes.

Only by getting out of the sea, completely out of Irin's sight, letting Ruth and the dog go out to sea alone, and operating in two lines, can it be possible to avoid Calypso's prying eyes.

From various clues, it is inferred that Irin is now eighty percent sure that Calypso is not a real "god", otherwise it would not be possible to be sealed in the sea by the "Trident", and it is impossible to merge with the sea, and the power is completely isolated.

Hey!

Wait a minute!

Irin suddenly had an idea and thought of a solution.

So while Ruth was playing with the compass, Irin asked Ruth to close her eyes again.

"Relax...... Just relax...... Qi Shen Dantian ......"

Ruth: "? ”

"In short, just relax, don't think nonsense."

Seeing that Ruth's expression gradually became blurred, Yi Rin leaned on Ruth's ear and said slowly in a dreamy tone.

"Ruth, there is a curse on you, as long as it is a man who is intimate with you, it is not good to die."

"Hmmm......"

Ruth was speechless, didn't she know about the old lady's affairs? Do you need to say it to your heart?

"You may not know that this sea god's trident is the source of all curses on the sea, and the reason why you are contaminated with this damn curse is because the trident that was broken at the beginning was later re-glued by someone, so the curse on the sea has been revived and seems to have become more terrifying."

it?

A thought crossed Ruth's mind.

But Yi Rin didn't give Ruth time to think at all, and continued to strike while the iron was hot: "If you think about it carefully, your real desire is not just Elizabeth Rin, your goal, but the beautiful men in the world, what you really desire is a vigorous tossing and turning and rolling love that can't sleep all night......"

"Huh~" Ruth's breath stagnated, and under the inducement of Irin, she didn't know what inappropriate pictures for children came to mind, and her cheeks were red, like a ripe apple.

"So!" Irin's voice suddenly rose high.

"As long as you find the trident of the sea god, you can lift the curse on your body, and from now on, you can sleep wherever you want, and sleep with whoever you want, wouldn't it be very happy?"

That's right!

Ruth's eyes were still closed.

But after Irin said this, there was a bang in his head, like a latrine suddenly opened, and suddenly it opened up, and there was a lot of light.

As long as the curse is lifted, the old lady will not sleep with whoever she wants? Use any position you want? From any angle you want?

Not at all!

In a flash.

The compass clutched in Ruth's hand, the pointer turned wildly again, and finally froze in a certain direction.

Irin's ass quietly shifted and shifted a few positions.

Seeing that the pointer was pointing without shaking at all, Irin was completely relieved.

Finally, it's done!

……

……

Irin got busy again.

Pinching his fingers to count the time, the deadline for the second main quest is getting closer and closer.

Although the punishment is not as exaggerated as a direct obliteration, Irin's habit is to do his best, and he is not willing to sink in the sand in the second main quest.

The structure of the whole plot trial, in front of Irin, is already like a girl who shy unveils the veil, and her thinking is becoming clearer and clearer.

Perhaps because of this trial of the inner world, the map is too vast, and Irin's been busy exploring the plot, but he rarely intersects with other apostles.

At present, Yi Rin has only been in contact with Gu Tianqing and Emperor Wang Tian.

The other two apostles seemed to be still dangling on the sea, happily brushing up on points.

It's a pity that this mission, there is no list similar to the "reputation list", except for asking around for information, or speculating from the changes in the bounty, Irin's no other way to speculate on the actions of the other two "pirate allies" from the side.

"Heh, this trial is a bit lonely."

Yi Rin has long been accustomed to intrigue with each other at the beginning, and even start a fight, and suddenly such a lonely journey comes, which makes Yi Rin a little uncomfortable.

However, the apostle is such a creature, traveling all over the heavens and all worlds, going through the vicissitudes of life, survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest, each mission style and method are different, and Irin's second life has never encountered the same inner world, which can be seen.

If you don't adapt to this rhythm, it may be a good thing to eliminate it early.

And at this time.

Dressed in gorgeous women's clothes, Yi Rin was leisurely basking in the sun with the "father of Elizabeth Rin" Swan Swan, enjoying a peaceful afternoon tea in the courtyard of the castle.

- Hot black tea, the kind with delicate handmade pastries.

Although the Swan family is in decline, the aristocratic heritage is still there, enough for the family to enjoy a luxurious life.

Coupled with the fact that Elizabeth Rin has become the fiancée of the Governor, it seems that the Swann family has begun to stammer with some other families in some businesses.

From the smile on Old Swan's face that couldn't be hidden, Yi Rin roughly inferred that Old Swan has been quite proud of the spring breeze recently, smiling stupidly all day long, and seems to have been dreaming of the revival and rise of the Swan family.

Irin bowed his head elegantly, sipped black tea, and took a small bite of pastry.

"My daughter, thank you for your hard work."

Old Swan suddenly said this, and his expression was emotional.

Irin kept smiling, followed Swan Sr.'s words, and asked softly, "Have you made a lot of money lately?" ”

With the Governor of the Navy on his back, it would be strange to say that there was no other family to tie up the Swann family.

Old Swan sneered, "It's okay, it's okay, oh my darling, you know, for a true nobleman, money is not too much." ”

Irin was silent for a moment.

And then he said casually, "Oh, shit, I almost forgot, something very important." ”

Swan Sr.: "? ”

"Recently, there have been quite a few pirates in the city, and I heard that even the legendary 'skeleton gentleman' has appeared."

Old Swan's expression was calm: "Don't worry, London is heavily guarded, my good daughter, don't worry, your future husband will never let you be taken captive by the damned pirates again." ”

Irin shook her head, "I'm worried about the Swann family's property!" ”

Old Swan was also stunned: "What are you afraid of, pirates are not only ...... at sea"

Irin interrupted Old Swan, "But I've heard that everyone knows that pirates are good at robbing banks in strange ways, let alone a family's treasury. ”

Hiss –

Old Swan suddenly gasped.

Yi Rin said again: "The Swan family's property should be hidden, right?" ”

"Well, my good daughter, don't worry, our family's treasures are very hidden, in the third room on the right hand side of the corridor on the second floor of the basement, on the bookshelf on the left hand side, count the third book in the second row from top to bottom, "How To Get Richer", press it to open the secret door!"

Old Swan proudly took out a key made of pure gold from his collar: "Moreover, the only key to the secret door, my father hid it closely, and no one could guess how to enter the treasure room of the Swan family." Hey! Even if it's a damn pirate! ”

Irin smiled pleasantly, "Well, damn pirates. ”
