Chapter 288 The Cursed Harbor of Death (Part 1)

"This is the Bay of Dead Souls..."

As the Black Raven slowly sailed into the pier, Fangzheng also took a deep breath when he saw everything in front of him. And the expressions of the others were not much better.

There is no other reason, just because... everything here is too tragic!

Although they have heard from Fox, countless people joined a frenzied battle here for those treasures, and all of them died in the end. But that was just hearing after all, and now, this scene is finally presented in front of their eyes!

Looking around, there are many bones everywhere!

After hundreds of years, the corpses here have naturally decayed long ago, leaving only bones, and most of the houses have collapsed, only some broken walls still barely retain the scenery of the year. And the ground is full of bones and weapons, and there is a dead silence all around, not even the wind, as if everything is completely dead here.

"Okay, ready to enter the port and stop the ship! Prepare for repairs. Fortunately, we have enough materials on board. As long as we work overtime, it will not be a problem to get it done in one night!"

After the Black Raven docked on the dilapidated pier, as if to break the weird atmosphere, Fox slapped his hands vigorously, and then shouted loudly. After hearing his order, the sailors also hurriedly started working. Obviously, they didn't want to stay here for a long time, they just wanted to repair the ship as soon as possible, and then leave this ghost place.

"Let's go up and have a look."

Looking at the pier in front of him, Fangzheng hesitated for a while, but still made a quick decision. He was very interested in the magic item that Nimf said could create powerful illusions. For Fang Zheng, more than half of the reason why he chose to come here was actually for this thing.

"Shall we go too?"

As a dead house alchemist, Nunnally was obviously reluctant, but Kuria seemed quite interested in it.

"Let's go, let's go and see together."

"Huh? But I want to stay and read the book... It looks so scary down here... Don't pull me..."

Although Nunnally resisted vigorously, Kuria grabbed her and took her off the boat. Seeing the figures of the two jumping off the boat, O'Grand frowned, then she turned her head, looked at the people around her, and quickly gave an order.

"You guys are going to help with repairs, Chief Guard, please take a few other people to guard the surrounding area, and if you encounter any danger, send the signal as soon as possible..."

"Okay, miss, please rest assured."

Hearing O'Grand's order, one of the men with half-haired hair also bowed solemnly to her. Although O'Grand's personality was indeed not very good, she still didn't tell her servants. During this period of time, every time she bought food from Fangzheng, she bought everyone's food in one go. Although there were also people who wanted to give her their own food, they were always rejected by O'Grand on the grounds that, as the young lady of the Platinum family, she would not eat the servant's food.

Of course, these words of O'Grand's words are not pleasant, but other people don't particularly take them to heart. After all, many of them have come all the way to serve O'Grand, and they are naturally quite concerned about the character of this young lady. Clear—just look at the young lady’s hungry stomach growling in the middle of the night but she insisted not to ask for food from others, that’s enough to explain the problem.

Because of this, even though the lives of this group of people have not been comfortable during this period of time, their loyalty to their eldest lady has not diminished. Right now, Missy has orders, and they will naturally obey them.

"Come on, let's go and see what that annoying man is up to!"

"Cousin, I want to go too?"

Hearing O'Grand's order, the man in the Chinese suit was stunned for a moment, and immediately had a bitter look on his face.

"What? You don't want to go?"

"Of course I don't want to go, who knows what they plan to do, cousin, are you really going? I heard that tens of thousands of people died here back then..."

"Woo..."

Hearing this, O'Grand also showed a bit of depression on her face, but she stared at the backs of Fangzheng and others, thinking of the suffering she had suffered these days, she couldn't help it.

"No, I'm still going to see what they're planning to do here! Hmph, they're so secretive, they must be doing something shady, and I won't let them succeed!"

After saying this, O'Grand also hurriedly stepped off the diving board, chasing Fang Zheng and the others.

"Hey……………"

Watching O'Grand leave the pier, the man in Chinese clothes showed a helpless expression, and heaved a long sigh. But there was an unknown smile in his eyes...

"Crack, click."

Along the way, Fangzheng felt as if he was walking on a pile of bones. Every step he stepped on would turn into fragile bones. Although a hundred years have passed, everything here still gives people a strange atmosphere, and although the swords inserted on the walls and on the ground have long lost their former style, they have become rusty iron. Pimples, but just looking at all this in front of you is enough to shock people.

"Terrible………"

Seeing everything in front of them, Nunnally and Kuria's complexions turned pale.

"Why do these people do this... just for some treasures, even their own lives?"

"Who knows? And... I suspect there is something wrong with it."

"something wrong?"

Hearing this, Kuria froze for a moment, and hurriedly asked.

"What's the problem? Mr. Fangzheng?"

"Have you noticed that we have walked all the way, and there must have been hundreds of corpses seen along the way."

"It's almost there, but...is there a problem with that?"

"certainly."

Fangzheng glanced around, then clapped his hands.

"Do you still remember what the story of Captain Fox said? He said that everyone who stayed here at that time died. In fact, no one knew what happened at that time. Only the latecomers came to the pier After that, I learned what happened through the sailor's diary and dock records, right?"

"That's right..."

"Then there's the problem."

Having said this, Fangzheng narrowed his eyes and glanced around.

"Assuming that a fleet really came back at that time, do you think they might ignore the corpses here? Even if there is no way to completely dispose of them because of insufficient manpower, they must clean up these corpses. Then burn it. After all, there are so many corpses here, but there will be a plague, and...have you noticed, there is another problem in that story."

"what is the problem?"

Now Nunnally also became curious.

"It's very simple, where is the treasure?"

Fangzheng spread his hands with a sneer.

"Don't forget, it was said that these people killed each other for the innumerable treasures. But why didn't they kill each other when the people behind came? Assuming what Captain Fox said is true, then in After reading the diary and dock records, these people will definitely turn the dock upside down to find those treasures. But why is there no movement here?"

"You mean, Captain Fox is lying? How dare he lie to us?"

At this time, O'Grand who came from behind also heard Fang Zheng's words, and immediately cried out. Hearing the young lady's voice, Fang Zheng glanced at her like an idiot.

"How is it possible? For Captain Fox, this is just a story, and he hasn't been here in person, why would he lie to us. What's more, it's been more than a hundred years, who cares about a cursed ghost place. If we hadn't come here and seen what's going on here, we wouldn't have questioned the story, would we?"

"Woo..."

Hearing this, O'Glanton had nothing to say. She gave Fang Zheng a hard look, but the other party ignored her at all. Seeing Fangzheng's appearance, O'Grand couldn't help feeling furious deep in his heart, thinking that when she was in the Platinum family, there were so many young talents, none of them were obedient to her, and she ran away with just one look coming. This man really has no gentlemanly demeanor, and he is so rude to himself... O'Grand is not stupid, of course she can hear it, the tone of Fangzheng's answer to her question before, is simply treating herself as a fool.

Although she also admitted that the question she asked was a bit stupid, but... can't you show a gentleman's demeanor!

Hmph, as for those treasures, maybe they are still stored somewhere here.

While thinking wildly, O'Grand also looked around, and then, when she turned her head, a golden light suddenly flashed in front of O'Grand's eyes!

There's something there!

Seeing the golden light, O'Grand became agitated immediately. She rushed forward in a stride, and looked in front of the hole in the wall. As expected, soon, O'Grand saw the In the dilapidated cellar below, there are piles of glittering jewels and gold coins!

"Hey, come and see, I found the treasure!"

Seeing this scene, O'Glan was also very excited. She turned her head to look forward, and waved vigorously at Fangzheng and the others.

"Oh?"

Hearing O'Grand's voice, Fangzheng and the others came over curiously.

"Where is where? Did you find those treasures?"

"Of course, it's right here...Huh?"

Seeing Fangzheng walking in front of her, O'Grand proudly raised her head and pointed at that side, but when she looked again the next moment, she was taken aback.

I saw that there was no treasure at all in the place pointed by O'Grand, and there was only a hole overgrown with weeds.

Where is my treasure? Such a big pile, just put there, why did it disappear?

"Where is the treasure?"

Tilia, Nimf, and Hecate were still calm, but Kuria couldn't help it now. She leaned over, looked carefully, and then looked at Ogland.

"There's nothing here at all?"

"But, I found out just now, such a big pile..."

At this moment O'Grand was also in a daze, waving his hands and not knowing what to say. Seeing her expression, Fangzheng didn't say anything, he glanced at the hole meaningfully, then turned and left.

"Okay, let's move on."

"It was obviously there just now..."

Seeing everyone leaving, O'Grand was also a little unconvinced, and she couldn't figure out why these treasures disappeared in the blink of an eye even though she had seen them so clearly just now.

What the hell is this? !
