Chapter 97 Excellent men are coveted in any world
"So, that thing is a knockoff?" Richard looked at the sky with a depressed face, and he had just learned the truth from Calypso, with a faint sadness.
It turned out that the Poseidon Trident was not Poseidon's artifact at all, but a sculpture erected in the sea by the Atlanteans who believed in him, like a cross in a church.
"But I've heard that thing has the power to lift all curses?" Richard didn't give up and continued to ask.
"Yes, Poseidon was inspired by the piety of the Atlanteans, and attached a trace of divine power to that trident, and this is a miracle."
Damn, no wonder the trident is casually inserted in the middle of the sea, not even a temple, logically speaking, if it is really Poseidon's sidearm, with the character of the Olympian gods, it is impossible to make a sea king god domain plus a hundred and ten sea fighters to defend, and it is impossible to be casually cut into pieces by a saber, now listening to Calypso's explanation, it makes sense, this is a one-time consumable, the trident version of the exorcism scroll.
"But in comparison, that trident should be considered an existing artifact, at least there is a trace of Poseidon's divine power on it, just like the compass in your hand, it is also because of the divine power of Hermes that it can be so magical." Calypso gestured to the compass hanging from Richard's waist.
"This compass has the divine powers of Hermes?" Richard was stunned, he really didn't expect that this compass that ran through the entire Pirates of the Caribbean world would have such a high-level origin.
"Yes, one of the twelve main gods of Olympus, messenger of the gods. The god of commerce, markets, tourism, traffic, travelers and thieves, the extradition of the underworld, the son of Zeus and Maia. Otherwise, how do you think Jack used it to seal Salazar? ”
"Oh, I happen to be interested in that story, you tell me about it."
In order to show his sincerity, Richard simply cut the cable that imprisoned Calypso, ignored the rumbling shelling around her, and led her to the captain's room.
"This is the gadget that Hermes left with me back then, with a trace of his divine power attached, which can point to what the holder has in mind, and in addition, it can open the door to the underworld."
"The gates of the underworld?"
"Yes, as the god of thieves, there is no place that Hermes can't reach, including the underworld, and besides, he can open a door that can even bypass the detection of Cerberus."
"What did he go to the underworld to steal?"
"Stealing jade and stealing incense, you men, what else can you steal." As she spoke, Calypso glanced at Richard meaningfully and licked her lips, fortunately, her current dignity made Richard keep his heart.
"Ahem, that's really, an artifact." Richard looked at the compass in his hand and was speechless for a while, there are really few vegetarians in the Olympus bunch of immortals, and the reason why the compass fell into Calypso's hand he also guessed that it was nothing more than a gift after a night of joy.
"Oh yes, it's always rumored that you gave this compass to Jack, is that true?"
"Yes, this guy was a little handsome back then, and it really fascinated me for a while, so I gave him this thing, and as for Salazar, it was pure bad luck, and he happened to chase him to the gap between the underworld and the present world, so that Jack's compass opened the door to the underworld and turned him and his ship into an undead."
Didn't the movie say that the compass was inherited by Jack from the old captain? Hey, wait, the pirates at that time seemed to have a rule of tribute, maybe the compass was forced to pay tribute and was returned, after all, Jack, who was still a little fresh meat at the time, couldn't have known so many uses for this compass.
Richard, who was pondering there, suddenly felt a slender jade hand touching his chest, although it was black jade, but it was not the same as those rough old men, especially Calypso, a skilled worker, that strength, Richard couldn't help but think of the massage girl in his hometown, but, when he came back to his senses and saw Calypso's face, Richard still pushed her hand away...
"Goddess, please respect yourself, I'm not such a casual person."
"Hehe, duplicity." Calypso glanced at Richard and grinned, but unfortunately, the big black teeth really made him unbearable to look at directly, "I don't know you men, don't you just think I'm ugly, you let me out, I'll let you taste the taste of the goddess of the West." ”
“...... Let's get down to business. Richard still restrained, Calypso may be telling the truth, but she is as moody as the storm is not sure what will happen in the future, or continue to be like this, he is more assured.
"Do you have any other treasures like this?" Richard asked casually, of course, his heart was not casual, if there were two similar treasures in Calypso, he would have completed the task, and the rest should be considered how to get more skills in this world.
"It's gone." Calypso smiled bitterly, "I was a small god who lived outside Mount Olympus in the first place, how could I have countless treasures like the twelve main gods, and besides, if I could recover my body, I wouldn't need these little toys." ”
Richard pondered for a moment, and felt that Calypso was not lying, that the goddess of the sea did not need these treasures, and that the treasures that she really coveted were now gone, otherwise she would have taken them for herself.
"Then let's go and get that trident, anyway, that thing also has Poseidon's divine power on it, and it's also an artifact now, and it's pretty good to decorate your temple." Richard said that he only got one of the three treasures, and Calypso didn't know how long he could cheat, so it was safer to find another one, and in any case, try the trident first.
After saying that, Richard pushed the door and walked out of the captain's room, "Why hasn't it been so long to get the enemy's fleet?" ”
"My lord, our artillery is too slow to sink a ship, so it's better for you to use your Apiki artifact."
"Okay, help me find their flagship, and whoever hangs the flag will hit whomever it wants."
"Yes!"
......
Listening to the noisy sound outside, Calypso couldn't help but lick his lips again, "Hmph, the last male god in the world, you can't escape from the palm of my hand, I want to give birth to another Olympus with you." ”
Just when Richard coveted the treasure of this world, the world coveted his treasure too, well.... At least some goddess is quite looking forward to ....
