Chapter 286: Conquering the Sea (Thanks to the insects and the reward for donating rice~)
"What? Does it have anything to do with this prophecy?"
Andy didn't know why, but seeing Margaret's excitement, he was also very curious.
"See that picture? Andy. ”
Margaret pointed to a painting on the wooden wall of the captain's cabin and spoke.
There were originally two paintings in the captain's room, one of which was a scroll containing part of the Book of Plague and Death, which had been put away by Andy, and the other was a picture of a terrifying sea beast pulling a three-masted galleon into the deep sea.
And what Mom Margaret said was that painting.
Andy had studied the painting, but found nothing.
"What did you find?"
Andy's body shook slightly, but he asked calmly, he had long thought about the two paintings in the captain's room, one of which contained the powerful Book of Curses, and the other one, how could there be nothing?
Margaret had a strange expression, as if surprised, as if reminiscing.
"It's a strange thing, I think I'd better let you see it with your own eyes. ”
Andy nodded slightly, and he shouted faintly outside the captain's room, "Lowry, go get me a stronger slave." ”
"Yes, sir!"
A rough voice came from outside, Lowry's nickname is Squid, he is a clever and strong pirate, he usually basks in the sun at the railing not far from the captain's room, Andy has anything to do, he asks him to help him convey it.
After a while, there was a knock on the door to the captain's quarters, and after Andy answered, Lowry pushed the door open.
He was a strong black pirate with a bare head without a single hair, and it is said that he liked to spit a disgusting black liquid into the face of his opponents during combat, which was a unique ability of him, which is why others called him Squid.
Lowry shoved a strong slave and walked in, kicked the slave in the crook of the leg, and the guy fell to the floor with an uncontrolled cabinet, and Lowry smiled with satisfaction and walked out of the captain's room.
"Great captain, please don't kill me......"
The slave knelt on the floor, his body trembling, he thought of his companion who had been brought out before, the guy had never returned, and in the vast sea, he could not think of any other possibility than to be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.
It can't be that you've joined this pirate ship, right?
"Don't be afraid, take it easy. ”
Andy handed the guy a glass of rum, which he drank quickly, nearly choking on it, for he had been eating leftovers and hard or moldy brown bread for a long time.
"Let's get started. ”
Anna had already walked out of the captain's room when the slave was brought in, she didn't want to see it, Andy didn't force it, sooner or later, Anna would understand how cruel the world, especially the world of pirates, was.
"Start what?"
The slave subconsciously asked, but saw Margaret beside Andy looking at him strangely, a faint black luster appeared in the blue pupils, and a black rose that looked like a tattoo quickly appeared on the half-exposed chest.
An indescribable pain emanated from his body, and the slave completely lost consciousness.
His soul was hooked out of his body by Margaret's magic, but before Margaret could use the Soul Charm to collect his soul, the painting on the wall suddenly changed strangely.
The monstrous beast in the painting began to blur, and the whole picture turned into a deep black hole, and a powerful suction force came out, sucking his soul into it.
Andy watched this scene with interest, he felt a familiar power behind the black hole, it was the magic from the Book of Curses, the black hole absorbed the soul and then changed, exuding a strange and unpredictable aura.
Lines of handwriting appear on the scroll, as if a transparent person is writing.
However, as the handwriting increased, the smile on Andy's face began to solidify, and in the end, it turned into shock and doubt.
A treasure trove of mermaids' human skins!
Who would have thought that among the drawings on the walls of the captain's quarters, there were clues about the human skin treasures of the mermaids?
Andy's eyes were fixed on the handwriting on the scroll, as if he wanted to keep them firmly in his mind.
"It's useless, Andy, you can't remember. ”
Margaret muttered that she had only thought of writing down the contents before, but when the contents of the picture were hidden, Margaret was surprised to find that she only remembered the clues about the mermaid's human skin treasure hidden in the picture, and she could not remember what those clues were.
Andy's face darkened when he heard Margaret's words, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, he had already thought of a possibility, there was some strange witchcraft hidden in this picture, and he would not be able to remember it until the conditions were met.
Sure enough, when the handwriting disappeared, the hideous sea beast reappeared on the scroll, and the information in Andy's mind began to dissipate, and in the end, Andy only knew that the scroll in front of him contained clues about the treasure of human skin.
"Incredible, isn't it?"
Margaret said faintly, leaning over Andy, as if waiting for him to make an idea.
"It looks like a lot of soul sacrifice is going to be ......"
Andy's eyes narrowed, and he walked over to the table and pulled out a nautical chart from one of the drawers below, which was already in existence on the Black Fantasy, recording the islands and harbors in the central sea.
On nautical charts, the location of Treasure Island is prominently marked.
At first, Andy only knew that this was a nautical chart of the Central Sea because of the existence of Treasure Island, and Andy picked up a quill and drew a big question mark under Treasure Island.
Now it seems that the original owner of the Black Fantasy is also fighting the idea of Treasure Island, and has gained something, and even found a clue to the treasure of human skin, but it is not surprising that which pirate in the Central Sea is not fighting the idea of Treasure Island?
After all, there is wealth coveted by the gods!
"Fountain of Youth, Dragon Tiles, Poseidon Scepter, Treasure Island...... Now it seems that there is so much waiting for me in this ocean, and maybe I should try to conquer this sea like Jack?"
Andy muttered, suddenly stood up, he closed the chart, his face showed confidence, without the suppression of the immortal curse, Andy felt that he was in a very good state.
"Maybe the skeleton captain in Messide's prophecy is really me?"
Margaret stood beside Andy, quietly looking at Andy's side face, the young man's side face was a little cold, the confident light in his eyes made Margaret's heart skip a beat, she didn't know what she thought, and a blush flashed on her face.
