The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 576 Falling Star Sea Ghost Ship

In fact, even if Old Belen doesn't come up with this letter of recommendation, Leo is going to find an opportunity to get in touch with the Anecdote Society to see if he can join it, and he is also confident that joining the Anecdote Society will not be a big problem, after all, he does not care about knowledge. Quantity or ability are far beyond the average person.

Now that he has a letter of recommendation from Old Belen, and he also knows a meeting place of the Hearing Society, which saves him a lot of trouble, and more importantly, the meeting place does not conflict with his itinerary. Just follow the itinerary and go to Marris Kingdom.

However, it is often thought that everything has been planned in advance, and when there will be no mistakes, accidents will follow, adding some dashes to those so-called perfect plans.

After the Ice Queen replenished a large amount of supplies at the Shackle Port, it immediately set sail and continued its subsequent voyage.

When the Ice Queen left the port, the Port of Shackles also sent several small warships of the army's sea defense force to follow them from a distance, monitoring the Snow Queen as it sailed out of the controlled waters of the Yale Island before turning back.

Before the Snow Queen set off, Shackle Port also sent the fastest ships to other ports to report the outbreak of the plague in the port. The fact that the Snow Queen was the source of the plague made all ports vigilant.

The mayor of Shackle Port had no intention of covering up the matter of notifying the various ports, and he clearly issued the order in front of the people on the Snow Queen.

Also because of the opponent's actions, the Snow Queen needs to bear the adverse effects of the plague in the next new city.

In other words, I am afraid that the ports that are expected to call in the next voyage will no longer be able to call, because no port dares to allow a ship carrying a plague source to call, even if it has been said that this is not a plague, and there are already Therapeutic Potions.

Therefore, due to the current bad situation, the old captain had to modify the next route, supplement enough materials, no longer take the Pearl Island chain, but sailed directly to the northwest, crossed the Sea of ​​Falling Stars, and sailed directly to the final port of this route. Simps Harbor at the southernmost tip of the Minsk mainland.

I don't know what method the old captain used. In short, after calming down the anger of the passengers on the ship, he also made the passengers agree with his proposal. Even those who needed to disembark did not object. Two said.

Because for the passengers on the ship, if they disembark from the Snow Queen at this time, they may be regarded as potential plague carriers for a long time in the future, and they will be monitored by the local government. You will be alienated, and your career will inevitably be affected, especially in life.

Therefore, it is the best and only choice for them to disembark at Simps Harbor, the final port of the voyage. After all, the Principality of Pus where Simps Harbor is located is a vassal state of Daliat, and the Ice Queen has a private dock there. They only need to disembark in the dock, and then forge a record of sailing on other ships, then They would be able to erase their connection to the voyage, and would no longer be affected by the plague.

Traveling through the Sea of ​​Falling Stars is not a reassuring choice, even in the present era where giant ships like the Miracle Star can be built, crossing the Sea of ​​Falling Stars is still a big adventure, a big adventure where life and death are unpredictable.

I don't know why, but the climate in the Sea of ​​Falling Stars is irregular. One moment may be calm, but the next moment there may be huge waves.

Moreover, there are some unpredictable dangers lurking in this sea area. For example, the sea water on some sea surfaces suddenly loses its buoyancy. If a ship sails on it, it will sink directly to the bottom of the sea.

In addition to the dangers of the ocean itself, the marine life in the Sea of ​​Falling Stars is also one of the dangerous existences. The marine life here seems to be species from another world. Not only are their shapes extremely strange, but many of them are so huge that people can only see Their shadows in the sea will unknowingly produce strong fear.

Among the many legends about the terrifying sea creatures in the Sea of ​​Falling Stars, the most frightening one is the legend of the deep-sea octopus. It is said that there is an octopus of extremely large size in the Sea of ​​Falling Stars. Crush the tentacles of a medium-sized warship, and the beak of the tentacle sucker can even tear any kind of steel plate, so none of the ships that encountered this monster survived.

But since no ship survived, how did the legend about this huge octopus come out? Many people who question such legends often use this kind of words to question such legends, but no matter how many doubts there are, such legends still spread unhindered throughout the world and become folk legends of all countries.

In addition, the ghost ship is also one of the various mysterious legends on the Sea of ​​Falling Stars, but compared to the legend of sea monsters that have not found any relevant evidence so far, the legend of the ghost ship has some evidence. Many ships that have sailed on the edge of the Sea of ​​Falling Stars have Ghost ships have been seen in the distant waters of the Falling Star Sea, and even some daring ships have approached ghost ships.

There are different opinions about the shape of the ghost ship, but one feature that will never change is that the ghost ship is a pirate ship, because on the top of the main mast of the ship hangs the skull black flag belonging to pirates.

In any case, for ordinary ships, the Sea of ​​Falling Stars is too dangerous. Even if they only need to cross the Sea of ​​Falling Stars in one day to reach their destination, they would rather travel half a month to the periphery of the Sea of ​​Falling Stars route.

The Ice Queen is obviously not an ordinary ship. When the old captain decided to fall into the sea of ​​stars, some people felt uneasy about it, but the old passengers of the Ice Queen were very stable, and it was their stability that made other people feel uneasy. The panic in people's hearts has weakened a lot.

The reason for this is that the Ice Queen has sailed in the Sea of ​​Falling Stars more than once. Although it is not directly sailing in the depths of the Sea of ​​Falling Stars but just along the edge of the Sea of ​​Falling Stars, this is already very remarkable, because even if it is The marginal sea area is no less dangerous than the central sea area of ​​the Falling Star Sea.

In many voyages in the past, many people came for the Falling Star Sea route opened by the Ice Queen, because anyone who took this route praised it and thought it was a worthwhile trip, because they saw a lot Some people can't see the spectacle in their lifetime, which is one of the main reasons why the old captain can persuade passengers to change the route.

After deciding to change the route, the old captain notified Leo. Leo did not object to this, and he was also curious about Falling Star Sea.

After leaving the waters of Shackle Island, the Ice Queen sailed northward for about a day. It hardly needed the old captain to send someone to inform him. Came to the sea area of ​​Falling Star Sea.

When he knew about Falling Star Sea, Leo had guessed that the energy environment of Falling Star Sea must be unusual, otherwise so many strange things would not have happened, but now he is even more sure about his guess, and he even knows the reason The abnormal energy environment caused by this made me know what the so-called stars that fell here were.

Eternal zero point is the energy source of all Death Star fortresses or Death Star-like fortresses. Zero point matter is a very special energy substance in the universe. It is like a stable and controllable white hole, which can continuously eject the most primitive The cosmic energy beams can almost be said to be the real eternal energy.

Millions of years have passed from the discovery of the eternal zero point to the complete control of this infinite energy, and in such a long time, the advanced civilizations in the universe have continuously deepened their research on this infinite energy, and have completely controlled this infinite energy. A kind of energy, and the success rate of producing this energy is nearly 100%, only some human factors can cause the failure of the production, not the reason of the method.

Although a method to control this energy has been found, it does not mean that this energy can be used at will, because the power generated by the eruption of this energy is too powerful, and the power systems of most warships cannot Take this energy infusion.

Knowing that the Supreme Council discovered a very special substance on a remote planet, this substance can weaken various energies indefinitely, and its own energy impact resistance is also very strong, even the energy beam of eternal zero point can also be blocked .

It is a pity that this substance is only found on this planet, and there is no trace of this substance on other planets in the universe. Although the mineral deposits on this planet are very rich, these mineral deposits are too rare in the entire universe.

Therefore, the Supreme Council stipulates that unless it is a huge ship the size of a small planet like the Death Star base, it is not allowed to use this metal substance to create Eternal Zero.

It is precisely because of this decision of the Supreme Council that Leo is sure that what fell into the ocean must be a small Death Star base wreckage, and because of the impact of the fall, the Death Star base fell apart, and the power system must also be scattered on the ground. In the sea, it also naturally includes the power device of eternal zero.

It is conceivable that the eternal zero point was not completely destroyed in the explosion, it can still produce the most primitive energy of the universe, and the energy diffuses in the sea of ​​falling stars, which makes this sea area unique. energy environment.

In such an energy environment, there will definitely be some biological mutations. In addition, those exploration ships that went deep into the Sea of ​​Falling Stars and did not leave again may not have encountered any sea monsters or disasters. It should be because they entered a high-energy area from a low-energy area Finally, due to the inadaptability of the energy environment, fatal problems occurred in the body.

Similarly, Leo also knew why the Ice Queen was able to travel so precisely along the safe edge of the Sea of ​​Falling Stars without any reference, even if the energy environment of the Sea of ​​Falling Stars changed, it would still not take the wrong route.

Before, Leo thought it was the ability of the Snow Queen itself, but now he knows that it is because the ship's captain and crew are all family members, and this family member seems to be very sensitive to changes in energy, which can almost match Leo's spirit. The net was comparable, and when Leo sensed the energy change, the ship began to change direction, from northeast to east, and began to sail along the last line of safety on the edge of the Falling Star Sea.

It has to be said that this environment is a very good place for Leo, because as his psychic level increases, the cells of his body also begin to evolve, and his desire for external energy also increases relatively.

For him, the current environment is like the nutrition tank he soaked after being injured. Under the action of the surrounding high energy field, the body quickly absorbs external energy to make up for the lack of energy.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone on the ship except him couldn't withstand the damage of the high-energy environment, maybe he had already asked the old captain to drive the ship to the center of Falling Star Sea.

With the replenishment of evolutionary cell energy, Leo's most intuitive feeling is that his nearly degenerated brain began to recover gradually. Although the recovery process was not very fast, it was very obvious. If nothing unexpected happened, it would only take three days at most In a few days, he can fully recover, and even the thinking ability of the brain can be improved due to the evolution of life.

It's just that the accident happened inadvertently, and for many people on board, this accident was even more pleasant to hear. After all, when those people learned that the Snow Queen changed its course and was about to fall into the sea of ​​stars, they must have thought of You may be lucky enough to encounter such an accident.

On the second day after entering the Sea of ​​Falling Stars, a dense fog formed on the surface of the sea, and compared to the other people on the boat who just felt that they were a little short of breath when the fog appeared, what Leo felt was that the concentration in the surrounding air increased several times.

This change also made him stop the ongoing work of sorting out the knowledge of the corpse collector's imprint and the tower wizard's handwriting, and walked out of the cabin to the deck.

Obviously, the old captain also felt the change in energy. While changing the course to get the ship out of the dense fog containing extremely high energy, he drove the wizard circle on the ship to form a shield around the ship, The high-energy mist is outside.

Different from the magic circle inspired by the storm before, now the wizard circle inspired by the old captain did not cover anything. Layers of mysterious Turing roots emerged on the deck of the ship, and the itinerary The protective cover is also similar to the gorgeous appearance of the colorful glass cover, which made the ordinary passengers on the ship gasp in amazement.

And this is not the thing they are most amazed at, just when they were still talking about the changes of the Ice Queen, a dilapidated sailboat appeared from the thick fog, attracting everyone's attention.

"Ghost ship? That's a ghost ship!" Those with good eyesight immediately saw the skeleton black flag hanging on the main mast of the ship, and pointed to the flag with great excitement and shouted loudly, attracting everyone's attention.
