Chapter 23: The Goddess

Robin looked in the direction they were pointing, and saw only one or two faint black dots, and knew that this was the center of the chart that Mr. Prosius had made. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The goal of the fleet is an island surrounded by many reefs. The island itself is also a huge reef, and the part that rises and falls with the tide and exposes the surface of the sea, which is very different from the original appearance. The only sign is a few reefs that emerge from the sea at low tide, arranged in a shape that looks a bit like the Big Dipper when viewed from above.

But all the islands and reefs were scattered in the sea of tens of square nautical miles, and it was impossible for people at that time to imagine anything strange about a few reefs so far apart. Large ships that can sail the ocean generally have a deep draft, and it is impossible to avoid sailing in this sea full of reefs, who would have thought that there is a hidden island in the center of the reef group?

In addition, there is a strange phenomenon, every time the tide falls, the whole sea area will be filled with fog, and the environment will be very different from the high tide, and you will only get lost in it without signs.

The most important thing about the nautical charts drawn by Mr. Prosius is that they mark the route from a specific point to a hidden island in the center of the reef at low tide. I don't know how the old man did it in the first place.

The chart was currently known only to the three or four people at the top of the team, not even Robin himself. Now that we have reached the target sea area, all that remains is to wait for the tide to fall.

After a casual meal, Captain Carter found Robin and told him to go to bed quickly, and at low tide he took a small boat with him to find the hidden island. They've come up with a name for it, Polaris Island.

Robin was flattered, because the boat could hold a maximum of ten people, and there were a lot of people who were qualified to go to the island first than him, so why could he go with the captain?

In his sleep, he felt someone tap him on the shoulder, and Robin woke up to see that it was Mr. Prosius. The old man looked at him with a smile, and Robin hurriedly got up to pack his things and prepare to leave, when Prosius said something very strange to him: "Bring the violin, it's for your own good." ”

The old man walked out of the cabin.

Robin wondered if someone would mess with his beloved violin after he left, so Mr. Prosius was kind enough to give a hint.

Sitting in the boat, four or five people, including Robin, began to paddle, the captain and Vincent sat in the bow with torches, Prosius pointed behind them, and the boat began to head towards the reef.

I don't know how much time passed, Robin felt his hands and shoulders ache, but he gritted his teeth and persevered, and there was nothing around him except the reef and the sea that kept receding from his vision.

It wasn't until Carter shouted to get off the boat that Robin also followed the others off the boat in a daze. Leaving two people in the boat, the rest of the people slowly followed the torches in waist-deep water, and the ground rose higher and higher, until at last everyone stood on a white sandy beach.

After so long work, I finally arrived at Polaris Island!

Everyone was excited. It was soon discovered that the island was littered with rocks and pillars, and the ruins were everywhere, but they were covered with gray-white polyp carcasses.

It must have been a magnificent stone complex in the past, in a style unlike anything Robin had ever seen, simply cut the boulders into cuboids or cylinders and built them up like building blocks.

The whole island is completely exposed to the sea, and it is not large, two or three acres. The center was the highest, and the collapsed building had not been submerged in the sea, but it had weathered so badly that it had almost turned into a pile of gravel, with only a rough outline, and it was supposed to be a large hall.

At this time, people couldn't help but be a little frustrated, and the imaginary scene of gold and jewelry everywhere did not appear.

At this time, someone in the crowd who scattered to search suddenly shouted: "Look, there is a hole here, and there is a staircase down!"

Everyone flocked to see that in the corner of the ruins, there was a three-meter-square cave, with stone stairs extending downward, and bursts of white mist constantly drifting out from the deep hole.

"I bet the treasure must be inside. Carter shouted excitedly.

As he spoke, he raised his torch and was the first to go down the stairs.

No one hesitated, attracted by the great temptation of the treasure, and everyone rushed in. After walking down the stairs for about half an hour, I guessed that I had reached the bottom of the sea, and suddenly there was a huge square in front of me, like a huge square, and the air was very fresh and humid, and people put torches on the ground wall as they walked.

Under the light of the torches, there are points of light reflected everywhere, all kinds of colors. It was only then that everyone realized what those points of light were.

It was an innumerable number of gold nuggets, gems, diamonds, and countless other unnamed treasures, discarded everywhere like garbage, stretching all the way forward.

Everyone was stunned by what they saw, and for three minutes no one spoke, only heavy panting.

I don't know who roared first, rushed up and threw himself on the ground, grabbed the priceless jewel and stuffed it on himself. Now everyone is crazy, only hating Mom and Dad for having a few fewer hands, and not taking a few more pockets when they come.

Because there are too many gold jewels, it is more than enough for more than 60 people on the ship to come here to take them casually, so it is rare that there is no phenomenon such as looting and fighting for black and eating black. Even if one person owns a large piece of territory and loots treasures, it's fine, it's a big deal for others to move forward, anyway, so far, there is no end in sight to this treasure.

Robin was the one who kept going, and every time he tried to stop and put something in his pocket, he found that the territory had already been taken by someone else, so he had no choice but to take the torch and go forward.

There was one more person who walked with him, and that was Captain Carter. The captain thought even further, thinking about how much treasure he would have to pack to reach the draft limit of the "Goddess", and not throw away too many supplies necessary for the return voyage. So Carter was going to probe the approximate size of the treasures.

Robin was also curious about how much treasure there was, so he followed Carter forward. After walking a few hundred meters, Carter stopped, stretched out his torch to look at something, and Robin also raised the torch and looked ahead.

At the same time, the two of them discovered that there was a high platform not far in front of them, about a meter high, and a huge throne was placed on the high platform. It is more suitable than a throne, a large bed, about ten meters long and wide, and it is all made of gold, and it is inlaid with various diamonds and gemstones, and under the light of torches, it exudes a kaleidoscope of colors.

Carter and Robin were stunned, and their eyes glowed like thrones.

In front of the throne was a small stone table, on which lay a plate of amber jade, and on the plate were several gold coin-like gold objects.

Robin thought to himself that he would definitely not be able to move this golden bed anyway, so he would take what he could take in front of him first. He stepped forward and grabbed a handful of gold coins from the plate and stuffed them into his pocket, and then turned back to Captain Carter with inquiring eyes, which means that you see that I am not greedy, and the contents of this plate will belong to me, and you old man will turn a blind eye.

But he saw Captain Carter's panicked look on his face, as if he had seen something terrible.

Robin suddenly had a bad premonition, and slowly turned around, and saw the face of a stunning girl lying on the edge of the throne, blinking at him with two big black eyes. The girl has long green wavy hair and wears a diamond-shaped black crystal-like ornament on her forehead.

This is...... Goddess?

Robin immediately thought of the goddess that Prosius had spoken of. She must be a goddess, otherwise how could there be such a beautiful girl in such a place?

Robin was about to say something in praise of the goddess, but saw the girl's face quickly raise and turn into a downward look at herself. Immediately afterward, Robin Williams saw a scene from the nightmare.

I saw that the bottom of the head of the stunning girl was connected, but it was a dark gold body similar to a leopard, more than two meters high, five or six meters long, broad shoulders and narrow waist, smooth lines and extremely beautiful, the whole body was covered with dark gold scales, full of explosive power, the limbs were strong and powerful, there were sharp dark gold nails on the claws, and three long snake-like tails slowly swaying in the air.

Robin only felt his scalp tingle, his legs went limp, he sat on the ground, and his brain went blank.

At this time, the girl spoke, and her voice was extremely beautiful: "After so many years, human beings are still so greedy!"

After saying that, he chuckled.

Then Robin saw that not far away, several black rays flashed on Captain Carter's body, and before he could snort, his body had already shattered into more than a dozen pieces, scattered on the ground and turned into a pool of flesh and blood, and the flesh was still burning with faint black flames.

At this time, Robin realized that where Carter was standing just now, there was a monster like a leopard standing behind him, but it was only more than one meter tall and more than three meters long, and its head had no facial features or anything, and it was all black. But if you look closely, you will see that the whole body of the leopard-like monster is made up of a slowly burning black flame.

All this was completely beyond Robin's imagination, and he must have been in hell when he walked into that hole.

Then the girl laughed happily, and a word came out of the laughter: "Hehe, no one will say anything now, right? Kill all these bugs, kids, go ahead, and have fun!"

Then Robin Williams saw the scene that made him tremble with fear until the day he died, and in the shadows of everything around the girl, the black flame monster that had just now kept coming out, and even Robin's own shadow was drilled out, and the number was so large that it made people's scalps tingle.

When the last monster stood up, all the monsters raised their heads in unison and roared in the sky, but they didn't make any sound. Then he silently rushed out, but none of the monsters would collapse to the ground, shaking Robin.

"No one will disturb us in a moment, young musician, can you play me the instrument behind your back when you are rested?"

I've never seen an instrument like this, it must have a beautiful tone, hehehe!"

The girl's face, the unknown monster with the body of a monster smiles charmingly at Robin.
