The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Bocadi's old seagull is a living legend at sea. As a man born and raised as an important port city in the Sigma Kingdom, Bocadi, like most people in the city, he became a sailor and begged for life at sea.

　　Like most sailors from the Sigma Kingdom, in the last sea battle between the Sigma Kingdom and the Inge Kingdom, he should be recruited into the army and served on the Battleship Kingdom Intrepid, participating in almost all major battles in that sea battle.

　　During the war, the Intrepid was sunk by the Kingdom of Inge. He was unconscious because he was hit by a beam on the ship, and he was unconscious. When he woke up, he had drifted to a desert island.

Afterwards, life on the island was the most legendary experience of his life. He changed from a pure sailor to a wilderness survival expert. The endless deaths have allowed him to master various survival skills. In particular, he also found the treasure left by the previous pirates on the island.

Having lived on the island for almost three years, he almost forgot everything in the civilized world and turned into a primitive savage. When a merchant ship off the route appeared in his vision, he would prepare for three years. The bonfire for help was ignited and finally rescued, returning to a civilized society.

Returning to a civilized society, he proved his identity to the municipal government of Bocadi, obtained a salary for military service from the Sigma Admiralty, and used the salary to rent a boat and returned to the island, The pirate treasure was transported back to become a rich man in Bocadi, and his legendary experience was also circulated in Bocadi, and even some neighboring cities of the Sigma Kingdom have heard his story. But he did not know him.

　　After worrying about food and clothing, the old seagull wrote down his experience, edited it into a book at his own expense, and then sold it in Bocadi with a certain reputation.

What made him wonder was that his book was greatly welcomed. Not only people in the Sigma Kingdom like it, but also people in other countries like it very much, and even many national drama clubs have specially adapted his story into In the drama, his identity changed from a lucky rich man to a best-selling novelist and adventurer.

　　After gaining fame and interest, he also gained a certain social status, even became a municipal councillor, and also married a noble lady, won the noble title, and lived a life that everyone dreamed of.

However, the old seagull was reluctant to live on the shore in such a peaceful way. Since he was a child, he has lived on the sea as a boy, thinking that he should live on the sea, so after his son was born and grew up to a certain extent, he spent a lot of money He built a three-masted clipper for himself, recruited a group of experienced veteran sailors, and while running a business, he took risks and gradually made a great reputation at sea.

The reputation of the old seagull mainly comes from his maritime adventure. After experiencing that desert island life, he seems to have been blessed by the sea god. He can often find some desert islands on the sea and find some long ago on the desert islands. Plants and animals considered extinct.

For this reason, the medical school and some collectors will specifically find the old seagull, buy the precious animal and plant model and seeds on the old seagull at a large price, and even for a period of time, among the most recently added types of herbs in the medical classics published by the medical school Nearly half of them came from plant specimens found by old seagulls.

　　After decades of cooperation, the old seagull has already gained a lot of reputation in this industry and is regarded as the top figure in the industry.

　　 This time, the old seagull was entrusted by the medical school and went to a very mysterious island to capture a creature that was extinct in Velon. This creature is called the ancient badger.

This is not the first time the old seagull has captured ancient badgers. In the past, he has captured ancient badgers four times for medical schools and collectors. However, this time the mission request is to capture a living ancient badger. This is the first time. It was also something that made him feel tricky.

Because of the high value, the old seagull has specially studied the ancient badger, a creature that has been extinct in Velon. The most valuable thing of this ancient badger is its heart and stomach. This is also a fierce beast like ancient badger. The main reason for the extinction.

The ancient badger's heart can be modulated with a very magical life potion. This kind of potion can have a very strong effect in delaying aging and increasing lifespan. And when life is dying, such a bottle of potion made of ancient badger heart can play To the role of life-saving. The ancient badger's stomach is not worse than the heart, because the ancient badger's stomach can be used to make an antidote, and the effect is no worse than the life potions made with the heart. So far, no such antidote has been found. Unsolvable highly toxic.

More than three hundred years ago, after the last clearly recorded ancient badger was killed by the hunting team of the royal family of the Français, we never saw the ancient badger as a native creature on the Weilun continent. In the biological list, ancient badgers are also defined as extinct creatures.

Because of this, when the old seagull made a specimen of an ancient badger body a few years ago, and the heart and stomach were put out for auction, it caused a great sensation in the Velon world. For this reason, the old seagull even boarded various The front cover of the newspaper.

But after that, various troubles came one after another. Not only did the dignitaries of the Sigma Kingdom ask him for organs and specimens of ancient badgers, but even some foreign powers that could not be offended were using various means to threaten him. Fortunately, in the end Weilun Medical College helped him out and blocked the external pressure for him. In return, the old seagull needed to record all the novel creatures he found and hand it over to the medical school for statistics.

It's just that even though a medical school blocked him from big troubles, there were still a lot of small troubles appearing around him from time to time, which made him very upset, so he simply remodeled his own ship and transformed him into a ship The big sailing ship allowed him to spend most of his time at sea, avoiding those troubles.

This time, he didn't plan to accept the list of medical school originally, because the person who gave him the list is a very aggressive school of medical school. Recently, the reputation of Weilun Medical School in Weilun countries has become a little bad, especially There is now a lot of rumors in the Great Plague in Milia City that the Great Plague was done by Weilun Medical College.

　　 But this time, the person who came to him showed him something. It was a token of a medical school big man who had helped him. He was very grateful to the big man, so he had to pick up the order.

　　 "Head, how far is it?" When the old seagull was sitting on the bow of the bow and thinking about things, the first officer stepped forward and greeted the old seagull.

　　 "Naturally when the time comes." The old seagull replied blandly.

　　Mr. Lim pouted and didn't ask any more, because he knew that even if he asked again, the old seagull wouldn't answer.

In fact, the first officer has been with the old seagull for ten years. Under the leadership of the old seagull, he has gone through many desert islands and seen many magical creatures. His experience at sea is enough to be any one. The national fleet is the captain. In fact, the navy of the Inge Kingdom and the French Empire have been visited by him, hoping to recruit him to the navy of the two countries as senior officers of the fleet.

But the first officer never agreed to any invitation. The reason why he abandoned the high official Houlu and was still on the ship of the old seagull was because he wanted to understand one thing. This thing was the mysterious island with various extinct creatures. Where is it at sea?

Before that, he had been to the mysterious island three times with the old seagull. Three times, he only dared to stay on the shore and dared not go deep into the island’s jungle. Every time before the night came, whether he found what he was looking for or not Things, old seagulls will take them away from the island, as if something horrible on the island will appear at night.

　　 Then, when I headed back to the sea, the mysterious island that had existed before had disappeared.

This is not the most confusing thing for the first officer. What he was puzzled about was that the sea area where the island appeared was never fixed. It appeared in different sea areas three times, and the most amazing thing was that the three old seagulls could find them accurately. Where this island is.

The situation was the same this time. After receiving the order from the medical school, the old seagull took them around in the sea near the border of the Kingdom of England, as if waiting for something, which made him wonder the mystery. Will the island be an island on the turtle's back like the legend of Bakba?

　　The legend of Barkba is a very popular legend in the Mosang continent. The legendary world is on the back of an immensely huge turtle. The turtle is carrying the whole world in the Xinghai, surrounded by the sun and the moon.

He is now thinking that maybe the mysterious island is also on the turtle's back, and usually sinks into the sea with the turtle, and will not rise from the bottom of the sea until some specific moment, and the old seagull can predict that the island is floating. Time, this also just confirms the outside rumors that the old seagull was blessed by the sea god.

Although the first officer’s mind was hidden deep, how could he not see his thoughts with the eyes of the old seagull, but it seemed to him that the first officer’s purpose might never be realized, and he could just use this to gain an experience Rich, competent and reliable first officer.

In fact, even he himself could not figure out how he found the island. As the outside world guessed, he may have really been blessed by the sea god. As long as he is at sea, he can feel where the island exists. Where can I get supplies, and even sometimes he can sense the arrival of the storm one day in advance, which is the main reason why he has not been involved in the sea for so many years.

This time, after receiving the order and embarking on his own sailboat, the old seagull sensed the time and location of the mysterious island, but later things became a little weird, because after he reached the sensed sea area, and Instead of getting the clear location of the mysterious island as before, I got some vague feelings, feeling that the mysterious island is nearby, but very distant.

In this weird state, the old seagull drove his own boat back and forth in this sea area, looking for the location of the mysterious island, but he had not been able to discover it from beginning to end, but that kind of mysterious island was already Appeared, and the feeling of being around him always wrapped in his mind, making him hesitate whether he should give up.

　　 Just now when the first officer asked the third time how long it would be possible to find the mysterious island, his inner hesitation became decisive. If he could not find the island tomorrow, he would return. This is not only because he thinks this thing has become a little weird, but also because he can't get some morale down on the ship. If he continues to drift aimlessly in this sea area, I am afraid that something will happen.

"Oh! God, what is that? Look, look, what is that!" At this time, the watchman on the observation deck at the top of the mast suddenly exclaimed, and then shouted loudly at the sky in the distance. .

The people looked in the distance in the direction pointed out by the lookout hand, and saw a huge dark object appear in the sky in the distance. This object changed from blurry and fast to clearly visible, and finally appeared in the form of a huge island. In the eyes of everyone on board.

　　 This island appeared completely in the air and fell down on the sea below. From a distance, it looked like it was a deep sunken warship deep in the sea, so spectacular, so terrifying.

"What the **** is watching, the bow turns immediately, the sails are put away, all the ballast is put on the bilge, everyone is tied to the mast, ready to deal with the tsunami!" Just in front of everyone When the scene was shocked, the old seagull woke up first, he immediately screamed, awakened everyone from the shock, and then immediately gave instructions.

Hearing the old seagull's command~www.readwn.com~ Everyone realizes that the spectacular scene of the distant sky is a death disaster for them, because according to the situation of the island, it will definitely cause a An unprecedented tsunami.

Despite the fear that filled the hearts of all sailors, they were still trained to move the ballast quickly as the old seagull commanded them, and then tied themselves to the mast, because they knew that if they even followed the old seagull's command If you can't survive, other methods are also dead.

　　When everyone was tied to the mast and prepared for the tsunami, the huge island that appeared in the air had already landed on the sea level, and it seemed that it should almost fall into the sea.

But when everyone is in place and they will encounter the doom they pray to all the spirits present in the memory, their spirits seem to hear their prayers, the expected tsunami did not appear, because the island fell on the sea At the same time, it was scattered like dust. At the same time, a breeze was blowing in all directions until the entire island disappeared and the end of the sea level.

Everyone was stunned, and it took a long time to react. The emotions of the rest of the life filled the hearts of everyone instantly, making them tied to the mast and crying and laughing like crazy, and the emotions were completely out of control. .

Old Seagull is also immersed in this strong surviving emotion, but he has had the experience of the rest of his life before the robbery, and after so many years of experience, his emotions are far more stable and control of his mind than others It was also much stronger, and soon stabilized. While uncoupling himself from the mast, he ran to the stern and looked in the direction of the falling island.
