Chapter 239: Athos's Conspiracy
Tang Jie looked at Octavier and Horn with a strange face: "You guys...... Acquaintance?"
Horn smiled slightly: "Of course, it's not just acquaintance!"
Octavier "looked" at Horn, hesitated slightly, but still asked a question that had been haunting her mind for a long time: "Knowing Geralt Reed, is it Athos himself standing in front of you? If so, why does he keep denying that he is not Athos? If not, why did you find him?"
Horn looked at Tang Jie meaningfully, and said slowly: "Mighty Octavier, standing in front of you is neither Athos nor Athos......"
Octavier raised her eyebrows slightly, "What does this mean?"
Horn said, "You'll understand, Octavier, you'll understand!"
Tang Jie was confused by these two people on the side, and couldn't help but interject and said: "Hey, interrupt, what are you talking about? What do you mean by taking me for that Atos? And you, Horn, why did you just say that I am both Athos and not Athos? Besides, since you are Athos's subordinate, why did you change your name and surname and go to the Bal ship? Now you came to send me such a treasure map, what kind of medicine are you selling in the gourd?"
Tang Jie asked a series of questions like cannons, and all his calm and comfortable appearance in the past flew out of the clouds.
Horn looked at Tang Jie, he smiled slightly, and said: "Tang Jie of Nilcia, when you find the treasure of Athos according to this treasure map, the answer in your heart will be easily solved, the sea god Tira has already arranged everything!"
Tang Jie frowned and said, "Sea God Tira, do you think you are the messenger of the gods, pretending to be a ghost?"
Horn raised his head and laughed: "I? no, I'm just a treasure keeper, and you are the messenger of the gods, otherwise you think you've come this way, why is it so smooth, why can you always turn evil into good fortune in times of crisis?"
Tang Jie's eyes narrowed into a line, staring at Horn with a cold and sharp gaze, although he has been bumpy and risky all the way since he came to this world, but he is indeed able to turn evil into good fortune every time, turn disadvantages into advantages, and turn advantages into victories, sometimes he himself feels that he is the darling of the sea god Tira, and the sea god's lucky aura has always shrouded him.
But this kind of thing is okay to think about by himself, but it makes him unhappy when others point it out seriously.
It's like a person who relies on his own hard work and hard work, starts from scratch, and fights hard to build a country, suddenly a person jumps out and tells himself: Don't be complacent, all your good grades are just because "there are people above you"!
This is equivalent to denying Tang Jie's previous hard work and struggle, how can a proud and conceited person like Tang Jie stand this?
However, Tang Jie did not attack on the spot, because he was still in awe of the gods of this world, after all, the few artifacts he had now all came from the sea god Tira.
For example, the invincible battleship Black Dragon King, such as the "Blue of Awe" in Lilith's hand, and the "Miracle Arrow" and "Seagod Trident" in Tang Jie's hand.
Tang Jie is indeed blessed by the sea god Tira, if he turns his face and scolds people, it is a bit of a taste of scolding his mother.
Tang Jie suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and asked, "Let's not talk about whether I am the messenger of the sea god Tira, just talk about this treasure map, why don't you give it early or late, but give it at this time?"
Horn glanced at Tang Jie, he turned his face, looked at the sky with clouds piled up, and said meaningfully: "The treasure of Athos is unparalleled in the world, and I don't know how many people in this world want to obtain his wealth and artifacts, so as to dominate the ocean in one fell swoop!"
"When Athos brazenly led the fleet against the enemy, he had already anticipated his fate and consequences, so he settled his beloved Octavil......" Horn said, looking at Octavil, a stunning mermaid looming in the light mist, and then Atos divided his wealth into several parts, which were hidden in various parts of the world. ”
"Athos doesn't want the ordinary and incompetent people in this world to find his treasure by chance and get it for nothing, so that he can become the strongest in the world, and he doesn't want his treasure to be buried in a secret place forever, in the dark, and never see the sun in the outside world. Horn said eloquently.
Tang Jie's eyes flashed and asked: "So, Athos divided his wealth into several parts, and then deliberately left a treasure map for people to find, he sent you to guard these treasures, and at the same time let you secretly spy on those treasure hunters, prompting them to kill each other, so as to survive the fittest, so that the strongest people can obtain this treasure." So all his wishes are fulfilled?"
Horn glanced at Tang Jie with appreciative eyes: "You are really smart, no wonder you can have the last laugh!"
Tang Jie smiled noncommittally: "Then you still didn't tell me, why did you hand over this treasure map to me now, instead of releasing this treasure map together at the beginning?"
Horn glanced at Tang Jie deeply, and said without answering, "What did you get from the first treasure map?"
Tang Jie said: "Blue of Awe and Black Dragon King!"
Horn nodded: "That's right, although the Blue of Awe is one of the seven artifacts of the sea god Tira, but it is the least helpful and useless for you, and it is the Black Dragon King who can really make you a force to be reckoned with on the sea." So, you traveled to Mozambique based on the second treasure map found in the first treasure map, and what did you find?"
Tang Jie frowned, he vaguely felt what Horn wanted to say: "I found the miracle arrow." ”
Horn took a sip of wine and wiped his mouth: "That's right, you found the most powerful long-range attack artifact of Seagod Tira in Athos's treasure chest, the Miracle Arrow!" But in the midst of this, if you weren't lucky enough to meet Lilith, and through Lilith you contacted the magical queen Fiona, and because of Fiona's relationship, you finally captured the Achillus Crystal, you would not have been able to use the Achillus Crystal to activate the Black Dragon King in the last thousand miles of attack, so as to defeat Sissy's Third Coastal Defense Fleet in one fell swoop, if this fleet is still strong, how can you completely gain a foothold on Alcatraz Island?"
A smile tugged at the corner of Horn's mouth, and he continued: "When the Codex Guardian Tieno was ordered by the Countess to assassinate you, you boarded Angel's ship of the Falco Empire by chance, and you also came to Garcia, the imperial capital of the Pound Empire, and met another treasure keeper, the Sword Saint Anthony, by chance!"
"Among the treasures guarded by the Sword Saint Anthony, you have found another Acrylius Crystal, and you are one step closer to fully activating the Black Dragon King. Horn said, a different light flashed in his eyes, "But, clever Tang Jie, please think about it carefully, aside from all the Acrylius crystals that you got by chance, which treasure location is the one pointed out in the treasure map of Athos?"
Tang Jie was obviously stunned for a moment, and he suddenly thought: Among the treasures left by Athos, there is indeed nothing that can activate the Black Dragon King! The two Aclius crystals in his hand were purely obtained by various coincidences, and they were not directly related to Athos's treasure map.
"So?" Tang Jie frowned and asked rhetorically.
Horn snorted and said, "So, these two treasures of Athos are actually just a trap!"
This sentence made Tang Jie's mind suddenly explode like a thunderclap, and he suddenly figured out the full meaning of what Horn said!
"I know!" Tang Jie's eyes were as sharp as knives, and he said coldly: "Athos threw out the treasure map for the world to fight, so as to select the strongest treasure hunter, but from the treasure hunter to find the Black Dragon King, the real test has just begun!
"I don't know how many people in this world want to get the treasure of Athos and the invincible battleship Black Dragon King!Therefore, anyone who wants to defend the Black Dragon King, what awaits him must be the challenge of the world's powerhouses, and he can't open the Black Dragon King, so there is a good chance that he will be defeated and die in various challenges!" Tang Jie's voice became colder and colder, and he thought that if he hadn't found the Acrylius Crystal in Mosanbik by chance, then he would most likely be trapped on Alcatraz Island by the fleet of the distant Alam Shei!
On the one hand, he has to defend the Black Dragon King and dare not leave, and on the other hand, the Black Dragon King, an invincible naval battle weapon, cannot be used, which is equivalent to guarding the treasure mountain and empty-handed!
This is simply an unsolvable dead end!!
Tang Jie looked at Horn with murderous aura in his eyes: "Didn't Athos fight from the beginning not want people to finally get the Black Dragon King?"
Horn smiled faintly and shook his head: "No, on the contrary, no one wants the Black Dragon King to have a new master more than him!"
Tang Jie snorted coldly: "Then why did he set up such an unsolvable death situation? If I hadn't been lucky and happened to be more able to fight and kill at hand, I would have been dead a long time ago!"
Horn smiled, "That's why I'm going to give you this third treasure map, because when Athos gave me this treasure map, he said to me: as long as someone can open the Black Dragon King and keep the Black Dragon King from being taken away, then he is qualified to inherit this invincible warship!"
Tang Jie smiled coldly and asked, "Oh, why do I believe your words?"
Speaking of which, Tang Jie himself recalled the timing of his two departures from the island, both of which were coincidences to the extreme, which can be called a rare opportunity in a century.
First, the Pang De Continent, which is closest to Alcatraz Island, happened to be caught in the internal struggle between the two kings, and the turmoil in the Pang De Continent made it impossible for the seaside countries to draw all their strength to deal with this pirate, which gave Tang Jie a rare respite for development. At the same time, in Mozambique, the pirate king of the Kadra Sea, Tonyak, also happened to die in the attack on Mozambique, and the elite forces of the Kadra pirates were almost lost in that battle. The space after the disappearance of this pirate force just gave Tang Jie the opportunity and opportunity to dominate the Nilsia Sea!
Otherwise, with the speed of his rise, there will definitely be a fierce battle with Tonyak in the future, and that fierce battle will definitely lead Tang Jie's enemies to fall into the well and take advantage of the fire to rob!
Second, he left the island for the second time, causing a shocking storm in Garcia, which once again directly restrained the hostile Kelsman family and the naval forces of the coastal countries, making them unable to free up their hands to attack them.
If someone gathered a group of naval forces to attack Alcatraz Island again when Tang Jie left the island for the second time, Tang Jie would definitely not be able to rush back to Alcatraz Island for rescue like the last time!
Thinking of this, Tang Jie even had a feeling, "This treasure map won't be a bait to lure him away from Alcatraz Island, right?"
Horn looked at Tang Jie, he seemed to clearly see Tang Jie's thoughts and scruples, he smiled and said, "You can choose not to believe me, but the things hidden deep in the location guided by this third treasure map are something you can't refuse and resist!"
The pupils in Tang Jie's eyes shrank slightly: "What is it?"
Horn said slowly: "The Seagod Armor, one of the seven great artifacts of the Seagod Tira, is a supreme gem that is comparable to a hundred Achillus Crystals and can make the Black Dragon King completely dominate the sea...... Tira's Tears!"
