The noisy crowd suddenly fell silent, and the explorers reached for their weapons. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Beside Magellan, several explorers with bloodthirsty smiles on their faces blocked his departure route.

The air seemed to freeze, and it was suffocatingly quiet.

Eventually, a shout broke the peace.

"The man with the gold is outside the city to the east!"

There was a commotion in the crowd, and then all the explorers ran, they ran wildly and collided with each other, and then, without warning, began to wave their weapons.

When the muffled sound of steel slashing into the body mixed with the sound of liquid falling to the ground, it was like rain began to fall on the calm water, and the ripples quickly spread to the entire surface of the water.

A third of the city of Athens turned to blood-red waters, filled with running men and frenzied murderers, and explorers unscrupulously attacked everything they saw.

Covering his face with a black hood, Magellan silently walked through the crowd towards the city gate to the southeast.

When he left the battlefield of the explorers, made his way through the panicked citizens of the avenue, and finally left Athens, the scuffle of the explorers was not over.

......

By the sea, Magellan walked along the path towards the Explorer's Pier.

The weather on the seashore changed as it was said, and the dark clouds came to the seashore like a living creature of astonishing size, and took over the entire sky.

The wind blows the waves, mixed with the rain, and falls on the face with a little cold, and the heavy rain is coming.

Magellan quickened his pace, trying to find shelter before the rain fell.

But a group of people emerged from the rain and blocked him.

"Give me what the hyena wants. ”

A tall man stood in the middle of the path on the edge of a cliff and held out his hand to Magellan.

"I don't know, what the hyena wants. ”

"Don't play dumb," the man let out a mocking snort, "if you're a lucky guy who doesn't know anything, you won't use the trick of feigning death." ”

"You know, what do hyenas want?"

"I don't know. The man shook his head and waved his hand, "You know what? It is believed that the end of the age of knights was because of the artillery regiment of the king of the world. ”

The explorers came up from all sides, and they raised their handcuffs and aimed them at Magellan.

"Many people look down on handcuffs, but in fact, the artillery regiment of the king of the world simply cannot keep up with the speed of the cavalry, and there are only five hundred people in the world. The man took out a dark musket from his hand and aimed it at Magellan's head, "It was the musket that ended that era, and I know you are strong...... I just don't know if you're a little stronger than the times......"

The furious waves crashed against the cliffs, the boulders smashed the waves, but there were still endless waves to come.

......

On the Explorer's Pier, Edward stood on the bow of the rejuvenated Queen Victoria's Revenge, anxiously looking at the dock in the rain, cursing and swearing.

"Don't worry, he'll be back. ”

Medea jumped briskly in the rain barefoot, and Edward took off the captain's three-cornered hat and poured out the water inside.

"Hope you're right......"

"What are you worried about?"

Still in awe of the witch, Edward did not swear as usual, but turned around in the rain.

"Now, on the docks, there are a lot of people staring at the ship, a lot of people, including hyenas. ”

The witch stopped and looked towards the docks, but all she could see was a building standing quietly in the rain, and there was no one to be found.

"Good afternoon," a voice suddenly appeared from behind them, "by the way, it's better to stay in the captain's cabin in this weather." ”

"Hah!"

The captain laughed, and he turned and walked towards the captain's quarters, shouting, "Full sails!

The captain's quarters were closed, separating the sound of rain outside and the shouts of the sailors as they worked.

"What the hell is going on?!"

Edward asked impatiently, and then spewed out a barrage of expletives: "We were going well, why are we suddenly jumping out of everything to find trouble?"

"The hyena spread a message. ”

"Hmph! What a disappointment for me. The captain tossed his coat aside, shaking the rain from his body as he lit his pipe.

"Have you ever had hope for hyenas?"

"No, to the explorers. I thought that among so many people, there would always be a few ...... who were not so stupid."

"The message was that I had found something of great value. First of all, that's pretty much the truth, secondly, people in the know know about me, and finally, I'm the only five-star explorer in Athens. ”

Medea laughed, but neither the captain nor Magellan laughed.

"The hyena didn't show up?"

"No, they've been hiding in the corner, at least I haven't seen it. ”

"I don't understand, what do they want to do?"

"It should be, what can they do. Magellan hung his canvas raincoat on the wall, took two cups from Edward's cupboard, and set a small jar of cocoa on the fire, "There's no way these people could have snatched that thing from me, the hyenas must have known, and they did it anyway." ”

"Procrastinating?"

"I think it's unlikely," Magellan let out a long sigh, "but that's the only plausible explanation." ”

"Ha," the captain smiled, "so the cute little puppies are in another place now, trying to get us in trouble?"

Coco began to soften, Magellan picked up the jar and shook it on the fire: "The hyenas are smart, at least they didn't come to me." ”

"Whatever you want, the Earl and the warships of the Royal Navy are waiting for us at sea, I'm fed up with these things, hurry up and find the statue and go back and write the story for me, understand?"

"As you wish, my captain. ”

Magellan smiled and divided the hot cocoa into two cups and handed one to the witch.

"By the way, how did you find that key, and where is it now?"

Edward's face was curious.

"Didn't Medea tell you?"

"We parted after Athena's wedding," Medea sat down beside Magellan with a curious expression, "and then I went into the forest, met Dionysus, became his priest, and learned a new sorcery." I don't know where you've been, though. ”

"I experienced a hallucination and saw Charon as a young man. ”

Edward and the witch looked amazed, and it was clear that Medea had spoken to him about the centaur elder.

"I also met the captain who built the temple, and following him, I found the key to hide. ”

The captain nodded: "Athena must like you very much." What does that key look like? Made by Athena?"

Unfortunately, the golden key was only visible to Magellan.
