201 Crystal City

readx;? Is there really a Crystal Castle in this world?

If you are a child under the age of ten, you may nod your head excitedly when you hear this term, and your eyes will glow. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 People over the age of twenty will shake their heads very firmly and instantly look at the person who asked the question with the eyes of a fool.

Crystal castles only exist in fairy tales, which is the consensus of almost all adults, because they understand the preciousness and rarity of crystals.

So Atlantis, which now stands in front of everyone's eyes, is like a fairy tale turned into reality. The gentle blue light reflected in everyone's pupils, making everyone subconsciously slow down, as if they were afraid of waking up the dream in front of them.

"Oh my God. Tim muttered, "Is this really a crystal?"

"Sapphire symbolizes the sea. One of the crew members said, "I guess that's right, this is the crystallization of the sea, the city of Atlantis." ā€

"Wake up your mind. Vincent said in a deep voice, "The blue crystal symbolizes the sea is just nonsense, the sea is made of seawater, and the crystal is a mineral. ā€

The crew member smiled slightly awkwardly and said nothing. Everyone slowly approached the crystal city, and people subconsciously stroked these crystals with their hands, feeling the edges and coldness of the crystals. Tim muttered that if he took out all these crystals and sold them, he would not be able to spend all the gold coins he earned in his lifetime.

Ian sarcastically said that you don't aspire to be a writer? A writer corrupted by money is not a good writer. Tim immediately became anxious, and argued with a red face, how can it be the same, being a writer is a dream, and being a rich man is a fantasy. Moreover, what he wants to be is not an ordinary writer, but the most authentic recorder.

The quarrel between the two eased the oppressive atmosphere a little. The two surviving crew members, Jeff and Parker, had their own smiles on their faces, but Vincent remained composed, while Green looked around, not knowing what he was looking for.

"If we can get out alive, you must give me a copy of the book you wrote. Parker laughed and said to Tim, "Because you're going to be a great writer with this book, and you're the first reader to own your book." It's just that I'm not going to read your book because I don't want to go through it again. ā€

"Don't worry, old man. Jeff laughed and responded, "If it were you, you would definitely take that book and brag to other people that you are the main character in the book." ā€

The crowd looked at each other again and smiled. Jeff walked to the crystal wall and took out his knife: "Anyway, risking your life to come here, it's not too much to cut two crystals back, huh, what is this?"

Jeff paused and shouted, "Look what I found, someone carved words on this crystal!"

Several people gathered around and found that this was indeed the case. On a small corner of the sapple, someone carved a line of small characters with a knife, the font is relatively delicate, it should be engraved by a woman, "In 183, Gray Hilton stayed." ā€

"Eighteen-three?" Parker frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, it's thirty-sixty-two." 183 is almost 200 years ago, which means that this is the team of the Sophia City Lord?"

Ian vaguely remembers the existence of such a person in Albert's fantasy journey. She is one of the few women in the group, and in the book she follows Sophia back to the port of Sofia, and is never recorded.

"They've been here before. Vincent said, "If I'm not mistaken, this is where the Lord of Sophia found the treasure of Revitalizing Port Sophia." ā€

At the mention of the treasure, everyone's spirits lifted a little. Even Ian is no exception, how valuable is it to be able to turn an ordinary fishing port into a metropolis?

"Let's go, go for the treasure!" Parker held his torch aloft and was the first to walk into the Crystal City. Jeff glanced at Vincent, and then followed, Vincent frowned tightly, looked at their backs, but didn't say anything, just followed them.

"Let's go, Ian. Tim called Ian, and trotted in impatiently, for fear of being pulled down. Ian smelled something wrong, now there were only a few people left, and the second mate didn't know where it was, Vincent's ability to control the team was not as strong as before. In other words, in the event of an emergency, the team may not be as united as before.

"Not everyone gets their hands on the treasure. Green spoke suddenly, interrupting Ian's musings. Ian turned his head and looked at him in a slightly surprised way, this mysterious short and fat man was always able to say shocking things from time to time.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you know?" Green sneered, "just like the team two hundred years ago, people only know that Sophia found the treasure, but they don't know how many people they sacrificed for the treasure. ā€

"Tell as if you know. ā€

"I don't know, but I do know that human greed will burn itself to the ground. ā€

"It's not like a homicidal maniac. ā€

"Is it better to be a feared murderer, or to be a little beggar to be ignored?" Green gave Ian a meaningful look. Ian twitched subconsciously, and then stared at Grimm deadly.

"What are you talking about?"

Instead of replying to Ian head-on, Green walked straight for the Crystal City. It was only when he passed by Ian that he stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear: "You and I are the same kind of people, although you are weak like a little sheep now, but you know for yourself, you have a wolf hidden in your heart, a fierce hungry wolf." ā€

Ian shuddered subconsciously, then looked back and watched Green's short back disappear into the darkness of the Crystal City.

What is he talking about? What does he know?

These two questions flashed through Ian's mind, but no one could answer them. He made up his mind, whether it was a discussion or a threat, he must find a way to make the dead fat man clear.

He took a deep breath, put aside the doubts in his heart for a moment, and walked into the Crystal City with his feet raised. The moment he walked through the city gates, the long-lost, low, old friend-like voice rang in Ian's ears again: "You're finally here." ā€

Ian stopped and looked around, but there was still nothing. He was alone, but he vaguely felt that all doubts were about to be revealed.
