Mystic Holy See

"Mr. Aldridge, good morning!"

Wearing a captain's uniform, Helena greeted Aldrich who had just boarded the ship, and said politely, "This time out at sea, it's all up to you."

All relying on my words, then I want to run away now, Aldridge pouted inwardly, but on the surface he smiled: "I can only say do my best."

"You are too modest," Helena flattered again, then pointed to a pile of stones on the boat, and said, "I have everything you need ready, do you think it's enough? There's still a long way to go to sea. Yes, if it's not enough you can say."

"No, these are enough." Aldridge smiled bitterly. The amount of preparation is really enough. If the ship's draft is too large, he will definitely contribute.

The fact that the black gold particles need to be transformed with other substances is difficult, and Aldrich does not intend to hide it. As long as the black mist form is not exposed, everything else does not matter.

The deck at this time was rather chaotic in Aldridge's view. Just carrying the stones he was going to use was a mess. There were also many sailors carrying food, fresh water, and preparing for departure. It was very noisy and annoying.

At this time, the cabin must also be a mess. After Aldrich and Herbert greeted him, he simply came to the high platform on the stern deck and leaned on the railing to blow the sea breeze.

"Sir, the captain asked me to bring you breakfast."

At this time, a sailor who was obviously young, with a thin body and brown skin came over with a plate and said shyly.

On the plate was a piece of white bread, a glass of milk and a red mandarin fruit.

Aldridge reached out and took it, looked at the sailor, and said with a smile, "I didn't see you last time, are you a sailor who just arrived?"

"Yes," said the little sailor, whose eyes were always peeking at the fragrant white bread on the plate, "I only got on board ten days ago."

"How old are you? You look pretty small."

The little sailor puffed up his chest and said in a righteous manner: "I'm 18 years old!"

"Oh?" Aldridge looked at him playfully. "Really?"

"Really..." The little sailor wanted to emphasize, but after working hard for a long time, his chest could no longer bulge, and he said dejectedly: "I am 15 years old..."

"What about the name?"

The little sailor was surprised, and he didn't know where to put his hand - a gentleman who was obviously very noble, actually asked him the name of such a small person!

He said loudly, "Hook, my name is Hook Lang!"

"Hook, okay," Aldridge repeated, smiling, "I remember."

The little sailor was even happier, his tanned face filled with an indelible smile, and he ran and jumped away.

Aldridge was really hungry, so he took a sip of milk, but he was thinking: "It seems that there is still a rumor about the incident that Ledger was attacked last time out at sea. Helena is very difficult to recruit sailors, even this kind of thing. The little ones have been brought aboard."

Generally, there are a lot of such little guys on ships engaged in freight transportation, because they are cheap, but on adventurer's ships, such little guys are basically invisible. Young age means inexperience, and inexperience means fart. Use no.

Helena, who is quite generous, can only recruit sailors at this level. Apart from the rumor about her relationship with Ledger, there is no other explanation.

Aldridge finished biting the white bread and sighed a little. This might be the last decent meal. At sea, the requirements for food should never be too high.

At about eight o'clock sharp, Herbert's dull and powerful horn came from the bow deck:

"Set off!"

Then, the sailors responded from all over the ship:

"Set off!"

"Set off!"

The sails unfolded, the rudder swayed, and the hull of Zhanlang slowly moved out of the port.

The sea breeze blew even more violently on Aldridge's face, giving him a sense of pride in an instant——

Whether it's the storm goddess or something else, come on!

But this kind of pride was repelled by seasickness in the blink of an eye.

Damn...forgot to buy the medicine to overcome seasickness, the nausea from the stomach made Aldrich want to jump into the sea and swim with the boat!

"Mr. Aldridge, the captain invites you to come over."

After a while, the little sailor named Hook came over again and said.

Aldridge forcibly swallowed the acid water and said with a pale face, "Well, I'll go over immediately."

Aldridge was very envious when he saw Hook running away as usual.

It is estimated that it will take a few days to get used to it, so bear with it until then.

Aldridge forced his way to the captain's room, when Herbert and Helena were both there, and they seemed to be waiting for him.

"Mr. Aldridge." Helena smiled and asked him to sit down.

Aldridge nodded reluctantly and sat down in the chair beside Herbert.

Helena said with concern, "Mr. Aldridge, are you not feeling well?"

"I haven't gotten used to the sea yet." Aldridge waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.

Helena didn't say anything. She was about the same when she first went to sea, and it took her a while to get used to it.

Helena said: "Mr. Aldridge, since we have already set off, it is time for me to tell you the purpose of our sailing this time."

"All ears."

Aldridge only knew that there was such an operation, but he really didn't know exactly what it was.

Helena said, "I heard this from my grandpa."

"My grandfather and Mr. Ledger and Mr. La Masia used to be adventure companions. They found an underwater ruin during an adventure."

Aldrich's heart moved, his fingers rubbed, but he didn't speak.

She continued: "In the process of exploring the ruins, both my father and mother were unfortunately killed, and this expedition also ended in failure. My grandfather was greatly affected and withdrew from the ranks of adventurers."

"Our goal this time is this ruin!"

Aldridge pondered for a few seconds~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and asked: "Why did Ledger and La Masia not explore again for so many years, but waited until now?"

Helena said: "Because you need three keys to open the ruins, my grandfather and both of them took one. Without me, they couldn't explore the ruins."

Hey, this set sounds like the real thing, and Aldridge feels a pain in his forehead.

In his understanding, this trip to the sea must have something to do with the goddess of the storm, but from Helena's mouth, they went on another set of adventures that didn't sound wrong.

However, Aldridge still believes that Hailena is the deceived party in this matter.

Not only by Ledger, La Masia, but also by her grandfather.

The difference is that Ledger and La Masia told malicious lies, while Helena's unknown grandfather told white lies.
