Chapter 60: Mission Triggering
Zhang Shuo and Elizabeth Swan ignored the malicious glances, first spent a lot of money to buy a thin sword for Elizabeth Swan at the port, and then bought some food and water and left the port. Of course, when buying food, Zhang Shuo secretly put some food and water in the storage space when no one was paying attention. If you are stuck in a place without food and water, these preparations will be used.
Upon returning to the Interceptor, the group immediately left the harbor and headed out into the middle of the sea under the direction of Elizabeth Swan's compass.
The sea voyage was full of dangers, and I don't know if it was their luck or not, after about two days at sea, the 'Interceptor' did not encounter a single pirate ship, as if pirates did not exist at all.
On the third night of leaving Port Royal, Elizabeth Swan looked at Jack Sparrow and said, "Jack Sparrow, I wonder why we haven't caught up with the Black Pearl yet?" ”
"It's Captain Jack Sparrow!" Jack Sparrow reminded him, and then said: "The Black Pearl is arguably the fastest ship at sea, and it will not be so easy to catch up with it, even with the great captain Jack Sparrow at the helm, it will be at least a few more days. ”
Thinking of the time of his mission, Zhang Shuo frowned and asked, "In a few days, how long will it take?" ”
Jack Sparrow thought for a moment and said, "If the Black Pearl leaves Port Royal at the time you said, it will be about five days away, if all goes well." ”
"It's been too long, and after such a long time, no one knows if the 'Black Pearl' had already arrived on Death Island at that time." Elizabeth Swan shook her head and said to Jack Sparrow, "Even if we can't catch up with the Black Pearl, we'll have to get to Death Island before they do." ”
Jack Sparrow spread his hands and said, "I don't know why you're doing this until now, I think you should tell why." ”
"It's Will Turner!" Murong Cheng interjected: "He is the son of your original crew member Bill Turner, Barbossa, they need to use Will Turner's blood to lift the curse on their bodies, and the place to lift the curse is on Death Island, so we must catch up with the 'Black Pearl' before then, or arrive on Death Island first and wait for their arrival." ”
"It turned out to be the son of 'Shoelace', it seems that he is your best friend, no wonder you are so anxious!" After saying a word to Elizabeth Swan, without waiting for her to reply, Jack Sparrow continued: "But I advise you to wait on Death Island first, even if you catch up with the 'Black Pearl', with the strength of this 'Interceptor', it is no match for them." ”
Elizabeth Swan frowned, glanced at Zhang Shuo on the side, and said loudly: "Then is there any way to reach Death Island before them?" ”
"Yes, but it's dangerous!" Jack Sparrow nodded, "I know of a shortcut to Death Island, but it's dangerous, and the Interceptor might sink on that route." ”
Elizabeth Swan frowned and asked, "Dangerous?" What is the danger? ”
Jack Sparrow didn't answer immediately, but looked at a few people: "I don't know if you've heard of the Kraken?" ”
Tong Lan, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "Is it the Kraken among the three major dangers on the sea?" ”
"I didn't expect you to know, little girl!" Jack Sparrow looked at Tong Lan in surprise, nodded and said, "Although the Kraken is a legend, I know that the route I am talking about has the existence of a Kraken. The Siren's song can confuse humans and make those who listen to it involuntarily jump into the sea. The Kraken waited for the humans to jump into the sea before they went to kill the humans who jumped into the sea, so few people knew about that route, and I only learned about it by accident. ”
"This" Listening to Jack Sparrow's words, Elizabeth Swan couldn't make up her mind for a while, and couldn't help but look at Zhang Shuo and said, "Zhang Shuo, what do you say we are going to do?" ”
"Since we don't have time, let's take a shortcut." Seeing Elizabeth Swan questioning him, Zhang Shuo looked at Jack Sparrow and said, "As for the Kraken, if we can't touch the best, if we do, then we can only be considered unlucky, and we will have to deal with it when the time comes." ”
After listening to Zhang Shuo's words, Elizabeth Swan directly decided: "Okay, let's go to that route!" ”
Seeing Elizabeth Swan's decision so easily, Jack Sparrow retorted speechlessly: "Captain Swan, did you hear me clearly, it's a kraken, a dangerous kraken." There's a 90% chance we'll run into them if we pass through that route, and we'll all die there. ”
Murong Cheng said suddenly: "Jack Sparrow, I heard that you owe a debt to David Jones, and he is looking for you everywhere now, am I right?" ”
"Damn it!" After listening to Murong Cheng's words, Jack Sparrow looked around very nervously, and after finding that the water was very calm, he said angrily in a low voice: "I said, although I don't know where you heard about this, but you have to remember that when you are on the sea, don't mention that guy's name, be careful that he finds you because of this." ”
"The Contractor's A-class serial mission [Endless Pursuit] has been triggered again, and in the next time, David Jones, the captain of the 'Flying Holland', will hunt you down!"
Hint: "As the Contractor who made his claim to David Jones to be fulfilled, David Jones will come to claim the soul of the Contractor and serve on the Flying Holland for 100 years." Until the Contractor leaves this story world, unless David Jones dies, he will hunt down the Contractor forever! ”
Hint: "A Davy Jones hunt could happen at any time, but the exact timing is uncertain!" ”
Listening to the prompt that suddenly appeared in the space, Zhang Shuo glanced at Murong Cheng, and after finding that she had also seen it, he shook his head speechlessly. If they had known that this would happen by saying David Jones's name at sea, they wouldn't have said anything, after all, they already have a side quest on them, and if they go on two side quests together, they won't capsize.
"Now is not the time to talk about this, now that we have a decision, let's go to that route right now!" Now that the prompt of the mission appeared, Zhang Shuo naturally didn't want to waste any more time, and said to Jack Sparrow at the moment: "When we were sailing at sea before, we encountered the Norwegian sea monster and survived, now do you think we can go to that route?" ”
"Have you ever met that big octopus?" Jack Sparrow looked at Zhang Shuo with a surprised face, and said incredulously: "What the hell, you guys met the big octopus and it was still alive, you must know the beginning" Speaking of this, as if thinking of something, Jack Sparrow didn't say any more.
"I was able to prove that they had encountered a Norwegian sea monster!" Elizabeth Swan spoke up: "They also cut off one of the tentacles of the Norwegian sea monster, which I saw with my own eyes, and gave it to Master Lavel. ”
"Lavel?" When Jack Sparrow heard this, he immediately looked at Elizabeth Swan and said, "What good things did you get from that old fellow?" This old guy has been hiding all this time, but he didn't expect him to be there in Port Royal now. ”
"You know Master Lavelle too?" Elizabeth Swan looked at Jack Sparrow, shook her head, and said, "I don't care how you know Master Lavelle, and I don't want to know. As for what I get from Master Lavelle, it's none of your business, cleaner, and don't hurry up to the route you said. ”
"Well, stingy woman!" Jack Sparrow shrugged his shoulders, got up and went to the rudder, turning the rudder in the other direction.
"Zhang Shuo, come in with me!" Elizabeth Swan said as she stood up and walked towards the cabin.
Hearing this, Zhang Shuo, although he didn't know what Elizabeth Swan told him to do, still followed behind and walked towards the cabin.
Looking at the backs of the two leaving, and then at Jack Sparrow, who was controlling the rudder, Murong Cheng whispered: "Be careful of Jack Sparrow, he proposed to go to a route with a kraken, which means that there is definitely a kraken there, and he himself will be fine." Maybe he'll be able to use the Kraken, so we'll have to be careful. ”
Xia He said in a low voice of agreement: "It shouldn't be enough to use the Kraken, but it's certain that he himself won't be fine, and he can't put himself in danger." ”
Hearing this, Tong Lan looked at Hua Bailing proudly and said, "But it doesn't matter, we have Sister Bailing here, and it will be fine." ”
"The problem is the one who is chasing us!" Murong Cheng didn't dare to say David Jones's name this time, so she just replaced it with that person. "The Kraken is easy to solve, it should be a skill like confusion, as long as the will attribute is high, there will be no problem. But the big ship that chased us is not easy to deal with, not to mention whether we will have an accident, if we really delay another side mission for this reason, and cause the mission to fail, we will lose more than we gain. ”
"There's no way around it!" Xia He shook his head and said helplessly: "It's also to blame Murong for you, who said that name to you, otherwise we wouldn't have taken that task now." ”
