Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?
Chapter 288: The Downtrodden Noble 5
The ship sailed, constantly turning according to the direction indicated by the radar, sometimes even circling in place, and Collide showed great patience.
No one saw any danger in the Pullman Sea, and everyone was wondering if someone had deliberately spread rumors in order to conceal the secret of the treasure map under the Pullman Sea?
It started to drizzle, and everyone suddenly noticed that the water level had risen. Elliot snatched the treasure map from Hua Xia's hand and asked, "Did we go the wrong way?"
The ship began to shake, Elliot was still watching, and Colliard said: We are on the right track.
I didn't take the wrong path, so why did this happen?
Collide reached out to catch some rain water, put his fingertips under his nose and sniffed it, and finally licked it with the tip of his tongue, and finally spit it out and concluded: "It's raining."
Everyone:. . .
Isn't this nonsense? How could they not know it was raining?
Ignoring the looks from the people around him, Collide continued: It's going to rain heavily soon.
As soon as he finished speaking, the heavy rain suddenly became heavier, and the sound of it falling on the deck could be clearly heard.
Everyone was caught off guard and got soaked. Only the only woman present leisurely held up an umbrella. The umbrella was not big, just enough to cover the delicate and elegant aristocrat in luxurious clothes.
In an instant, the noble, elegant and leisurely Earl made everyone else look like her slaves.
The guard reacted and quickly handed the umbrella to Elliot. Elliot wiped the water drops dripping from his face awkwardly and looked at Collide.
Collide twisted the mist in the air with his fingertips, as if he was feeling the humidity, but his eyes fell on Hua Xia, and his eyes became deep and difficult to understand. The nobleman had prepared his umbrella long ago, and he had obviously foreseen the coming of this rain.
At the other end of her gaze, Hua Xia took out a mirror from her pocket, which she had finally found in the warehouse. She handed the umbrella to the tall guard beside her and fixed her hair.
250: [Host, the pirate leader seems to suspect you]
Hua Xia was unmoved, she curled her hair with her fingertips and said, “Beautiful women don’t need to care about worldly opinions.
【...】
Coliide was probably speechless because of Hua Xia's concern about her appearance. He turned his eyes away and said, "Your Highness Reed, this is not the time to come out.
“The heavy rain may continue for a long time, so it seems we have to wait until next time.
Elliot didn't want to wait. The king was getting weaker and weaker, so he had to hurry up and gather a lot of wealth to recruit soldiers.
"Keep driving!"
After completing the route of the small half of the treasure map, Elliot looked at Hua Xia: "What about the second half?"
Hua Xia: "What do you mean the second half?"
Elliot gritted his teeth: "Treasure map."
"What treasure map?"
Elliot's forehead was bulging with veins, and he was obviously very angry. Hua Xia was on the verge of collapse before she slowly and calmly said, "Oh, it fell off."
"??? Where did it fall?"
Where else could it fall?
Elliot obviously thought of it as well. The only option was to fall into the sea. Annoyance instantly appeared on his face.
A man like him would never give up just because there is no route on the treasure map. To him, huge wealth is not just wealth, but also a symbol of power. Only with this treasure can he reach the pinnacle of royal power.
The so-called treasure map was drawn by the ancestor of Charlotte's family a hundred years ago. The ancestor was not a noble at that time, but an ordinary wealthy businessman. The discovery of the mermaids made the wealthy businessman smell an opportunity. He took his people sailing in the deep sea to catch mermaids. Ten years later, the traces of mermaids in the shallow sea area became less, which forced him to enter the deep sea area to fish.
The rich businessman accidentally entered the Pullman Sea. According to records, after he went deep into the Pullman Sea, he didn't know how long he sailed, and he didn't even know if it was an illusion, but the rich businessman saw an island exposed in the deep sea.
The land area is not large, and the surrounding vegetation is dense, with a lot of aquatic plants and the remains of some deep-sea animals.
After landing, we saw a kind of leafless climbing plant growing on the wide ground. The vines were intertwined and almost covered the entire island. The land under the vines was golden, and there were countless gold, silver and pearls of various kinds.
They used tools to dig up the top layer, revealing treasures still mixed with soil.
This action caused the entire island to be shaken. Heavy rain began to fall from the sky and the Nameless Island quickly sank at an extremely fast speed. Everyone hurriedly fled back to the boat.
The return journey was not smooth. Huge waves overturned the boat and many crew members were swept away.
The only survivor was the wealthy businessman, but it is unknown how he escaped.
After returning, the rich businessman dared not go to this man-eating sea again. Even if there was the temptation of huge wealth, he had to live to enjoy it.
But he was unwilling to give up, so he drew this treasure map.
The needle on the compass was spinning wildly at this time, but Elliot was rational and immediately ordered the ship to stop.
Going further would only result in additional casualties.
He walked up to Hua Xia, his expression cold and distant: "Our cooperation ends here."
Colide didn't react much, and stepped forward and asked: Your Highness, what are your plans next?
Elliot shows his cold-blooded side: "There are always people who don't want to die."
Collider was of the same type as Elliot, and he immediately understood what he meant: "You're going to use a pile of people?"
Hua Xia, who was now crossed out as a useless person, put away the mirror in her hand, raised her hand and looked at her fingertips leisurely, lazily and pretentiously: "Well, but I think I have written down the treasure map."
Two pairs of eyes looked over immediately. Elliot walked out of the umbrella and said in a gloomy and urgent tone: "Draw it."
Hua Xia reached out her hand to catch the water outside the umbrella: "I seem to have forgotten again."
Elliot: “…
Collide realized that the Earl was playing a trick on him, but it seemed that he had indeed written down the treasure map.
"Your Highness Reed, Earl Charlotte will remember it. Let's return home now."
No one would go out to sea in heavy rain. Moreover, the island mentioned in the records appeared strangely, so we might have to wait until the tide receded before we could see it.
The ship returned along the same route. It was raining heavily. Hua Xia had already returned to the third floor and was sitting on a lounge chair inside the glass windshield, looking at the scenery outside. She was followed by several guards, holding fruit plates and snacks in their hands.
"She wants the chef to cook right away and she even dares to order dishes?" Elliot stood on the deck, suppressing his anger and not going in. He couldn't believe that she, a poor noble, dared to be so picky and demand this and that?
If his demands were not met, he would pretend to have a headache. Sometimes he said he was hungry and couldn't remember what he was doing, and sometimes he said he was thirsty and couldn't remember what he was doing. Elliot had never seen such a shameless person.
Collied, who was standing by, found it interesting. The guards upstairs were bending over respectfully and holding up a piece of white paper. When the woman was in a good mood, she would draw a few strokes on it. When she was in a bad mood, she would throw away the pen.
He murmured to himself, "I guess this journey won't be boring."
She was protected from the wind and rain and could play games leisurely. Hua Xia was very satisfied until the ship started to shake violently and she almost hit the glass door.
When the huge waves came, the hull shook violently. Hua Xia held on to the glass plate and sat back. The waves were very high and hit the deck, and there was a trend of getting higher and higher. When they rolled the highest, the waves hit the glass plate in front of Hua Xia with great force, making a bang.
