Chapter 5: Lost (5)

This is a hand-drawn map on yellowed paper, which looks very old and has a good texture.

[Item 'Parchment Map', some important records are written on parchment, which is easier to keep than papyrus.] 】

This is the item information that all players will be able to see, and the following reminders will only be received by the player who started the side quest.

[Side Quest - The Secret of the Expedition, 20% of the Quest Progress]

Jiang Qi carefully looked at the map in his hand, because of its age, the scribbled words on it were no longer legible.

The port marked on the map is the Port of Houston, and the circled area in the sea is the destination of the expedition?

"Who understands this ghostly talisman thing." Zhao Qian threw the book on the table and looked at everyone, "Does anyone know it?" ”

The players collectively fell silent until a slightly hesitant voice sounded next to them, "Reluctantly, understand a little." ”

Fang Yuan saw that everyone was looking at him, pointed to the circled passage and said, "What Em Ancient City, and this, the ancient city of Lalei under the city of a thousand cities that disappeared, I'm not sure, these words are like Latin, but they are not the same. ”

"Okay, brother, you can understand this." Zhao Qian gave him a look that you are awesome.

"Expeditions studying marine life with irrelevant books?" Jing Teng pondered for a moment and turned to Fang Yuan, "Can you see any other information?" ”

Fang Yuan shook his head, "What I can understand is probably how prosperous the ancient city is, but the two ancient cities mentioned are not on the sea......

They rummaged through the expedition's belongings twice, but found no more valuable information, and Jing Teng, the only item with a name, was to be taken.

"It's easy to lose the map here, so I'll take it with me first." He said so, but the eyes that looked at Jiang Qi did not mean to negotiate.

Whether she wants it or not, this map must be handed over.

Even if something was discovered by Jiang Qi, she couldn't keep it, the difference in strength was so big, who would reason with her.

Jiang Qi folded the map and put it in Jing Teng's hand, his lowered eyes covered the trace of meaning that flashed in his eyes, "It's kept by the captain, everyone is very relieved." ”

But by all means, you must take good care of it.

———

According to Jing Teng's intentions, everyone left the office and went somewhere else to collect clues.

Jiang Qi didn't plan to change her plan, and when she asked Zhou Yunzhou to help lead the way, she chatted with this enthusiastic NPC by the way, and learned from him that there were a total of 23 people on the fishing boat, including the captain, the first officer and the chief engineer.

"Miss Jiang, you are researching, what are you studying...... Zhou Yunzhou scratched his head, "Yes, marine life, the conditions on the ship are relatively simple, you have to adapt to it for a while." ”

"It feels fine." Jiang Qi said.

Several ordinary crew members lived in one room, because the expedition team gave too much, so each person could be assigned a small single room of about 15 square meters.

"You just said you were going to sea for the first time?" Jiang Qi said seemingly casually, "I adapted quite quickly." ”

"I can't adapt to it, I was nervous in the first few days of boarding, and I was seasick, but I encountered strong winds, and I couldn't sleep all night, so it took more than half a month to get used to it." A cheerful smile appeared on Zhou Yunzhou's face.

Referring to the other crew members, Jiang Qi's eyes swept over the several crew members in front of him who were sitting on the ground casually smoking cigarettes and holding cards.

Deep-sea fishing is not paid a high enough salary, no one wants to come, and ordinary crew members earn hard-earned money.
