Chapter 52: Goddess Colybso

"My surname is Tang, and I'm from a far away place."

Townsend took a slight step back, politely distancing himself from the witch before continuing, "I've come here to ask for your help. ”

The witch played with her dreadlocks, turned slowly, and said something to Jack Sparrow, apparently not in English, and Tom and William looked at each other in confusion.

But Townsend clearly heard clearly, and when he came into this world, he was endowed with the ability to understand language in addition to the money bag of infinite money.

"You've caused me a problem." These are the words of Tia Dorma.

"That's not what I intended." Sparrow spread his hands and smiled at Townsend as he responded in the same language: "Obviously I can't do anything about him, he's mysterious, as if he knows everything, just like you." ”

"This is a special man, Jack Sparrow." The witch said slowly, "Unlike all of you, you shouldn't be entangled with him... Me too. ”

"Special?"

"His fate is blank." The witch replied, "Neither in the future nor in the past." ”

Then she was stunned for a moment, realizing that the question she had just asked was not from Jack Sparrow in front of her, but from the person behind her who was discussing.

"Would I say that this language surprised you? Miss Torma. Townsend smiled good-naturedly and said in the language they spoke, "Don't worry, I have no ill intentions. ”

Sparrow covered his face, poked the witch's arm, and whispered, "I reminded you, he seems to know everything." ”

The witch ignored his little gestures, switched back to English, and said, "Miss Torma? Cute name, this is the first time someone has called me that. ”

She sat down behind the table and beckoned:

"Come in, Don, let me hear what you want, warn me beforehand, I may not be able to help you."

"Of course you can, Miss Torma." Townsend walked over to his desk and glanced at the six-pointed star carved on her desk, as well as the air-dried crab claws that were messily placed on the six-pointed star.

Witches seem to use these crab claws for divination.

Townsend quickly retracted his gaze and went straight to the point: "I want to know how to kill the Norwegian sea monster." ”

"Ah~" the witch said meaningfully: "Davy Jones' little pet." ”

"You're going to do something terrible, Don." She stretched and leaned back in her chair, "Your goal is not just the Kraken, that harmless little baby is not worth hunting anyone. ”

"What did David Jones do that made you want to kill him?"

William and Tom glanced at each other, and sighed in a low voice: "Harmless to humans and animals? How does she describe the Norwegian sea monster Kraken, which is capable of dragging ships directly into the abyss? ”

Tang Sen smiled and said, "Need a reason?" ”

"Don't you need it?"

"Maybe David Jones needs to, and when I stand in front of him, I'll make one up for him." Townsend discontinued the topic that could loop indefinitely.

"Why should I help you?" The witch shook her head slowly: "To hurt an infatuated seafarer for the sake of a stranger of unknown origin?" ”

William and Tom looked at each other again: "Infatuation? Is she describing that David Jones? Captain of the Flying Dutchman? ”

"This time she's right." Townsend glanced at them both and said, "David Jones, infatuated and miserable. ”

"No one is born as the captain of the Flying Dutchman, and David Jones used to be a great seafarer until one day he fell in love with a woman."

Townsend glanced at Tia Dorma and continued, "Or rather, the goddess. ”

"For the sake of love, he volunteered to be the captain of the Dutchman, where the ghost ship flew, and was responsible for extraditing the undead to the underworld at sea, and every ten years, he had one day to return to land, but he had no regrets."

"It wasn't until ten years later, when he came to land as scheduled, that the goddess he loved, but he did not show up for the appointment, and he was angry and desperate, so he dug out his heart, decided to give up his love for the goddess, and no longer fulfilled the duties of the captain of the flying Dutchman, and turned into a terrible nightmare on the sea, until now."

"The goddess you are talking about is a metaphor... Still is? William asked cautiously.

"Goddess of the Sea, Colybso."

"In this world, there are gods, Mr. Turner." Tang Sen said, "I warned you a long time ago that we have come to the place where the gods are. ”

"You do know a lot of things." The witch's smile narrowed, "Then you should realize that I have no reason to help you at all." ”

"Don't worry, my story isn't over yet." Townsend smiled, walked up to Jack Sparrow, and said, "Captain Sparrow, as a pirate, I think you're no stranger to Colybus, right?" ”

Jack seemed to realize something, and his face was complicated and he didn't say a word.

Tang Sen didn't expect his answer either, and said to himself: "As the goddess of the sea, Colybso has an irritable and fickle personality, she always sets off stormy waves and makes the seafarers miserable, and finally, the nine great pirate kings unite and seal Colybso in a mortal body. ”

"She doesn't want to get out of the cage all the time, but she can't do anything about it."

Townsend looked at Tia Tuma: "I can only rely on what little divine power I have left, become a witch, and hide in a corner that no one knows about year after year." ”

When the words fell, everyone present changed color.

Tom and William subconsciously took a step back, while the corners of Sparrow's mouth twitched unconsciously.

The candle flame in the house suddenly began to light and darken, the dirty pigtails on the witch's head danced like a snake, her eyes stared at Tang Sen coldly, and there was no charm in her voice, only anger and majesty: "How dare you! ”

"Put away your anger, Miss Torma." Tang Sen ignored the vision in the house and said calmly: "You are not Colybso now, your anger can't make me afraid, be patient, don't you wonder why the pirate kings, who are mortals, know how to seal the gods?" ”

The witch didn't speak, waiting for an answer, and Townsend naturally didn't sell it, and directly said a name: "David Jones." ”

"In revenge for the god he loved and who had caused him so much suffering, he told the nine pirate kings how he sealed you."

Tang Sen sighed: "Maybe this is the consequence of making honest people anxious." ”

The candle flame in the room stabilized again, and the witch's snake hair drooped, and she kept her head down, chanting the name of David Jones.

Finally, she looked up and said, "I can tell you how to kill the Norwegian sea monster, after all, that little guy was originally my gift to David Jones." ”

"But in return, you'll need to help me gather all the pirate kings and free me from this shell."

Townsend finally smiled.

He said happily to the witch, "Please allow me to refuse. ”
