Chapter 188: Treasure Map of the Golden Stone

Hearing the captain's call, Sachs Sparrow swung a cable like a nimble monkey, and landed directly on the deck where Yilin was on from the observation deck more than ten meters high.

Yi Lin did not mention Sachs' last name.

After all, there were two women on board the Queen, which was unlucky enough, there was no need to be contaminated with another "curse" that seemed unsettling.

——There is always nothing wrong with playing it safe.

"Captain, are you looking for me?"

[Rope Proficiency (Advanced)] As long as you give him a rope, he can go to heaven on the spot.

There are so many weird skills in this sea.

Yi Lin secretly sighed.

Although this skill doesn't seem to have much effect, but seeing Sachs playing so smoothly, Yi Lin has no other way to express emotion except secretly nodding likes.

Maybe it's talent?

Yi Lin couldn't help recalling Ruth's miraculous massage technique.

It seems that we need to take some time to study the attributes of the crew and see if there are any useful crew members.

It is not easy to recruit this crew, and it would be a pity if all of them were thrown out as cannon fodder.

After thinking about it, Yi Lin suddenly realized that this seemed to belong to the job of the "first mate", so Yi Lin happily prepared to be a qualified skipper.

Yi Lin was quite impressed with Sax's crew attributes.

After all, like Ruth, he is one of the rare talents on this "Queen".

In addition to [Rope Mastery (Advanced)], Sax has another skill that impresses Yi Lin——

[Treasure Hunting (Advanced)] For some reason, he can always easily find the treasures he likes.

Think here.

Yi Lin took out a stack of ancient parchment scrolls with her backhand.

【Uncracked Treasure Map】

【Waterlogged Treasure Map】

【Incomplete treasure map】

【Dirty Treasure Map】

[Treasure map that looks unreliable]

...

In addition to the one that was looted from the treasure room of the "Queen" at the beginning, Yi Lin also found a lot of strange things from other ships during those two busy nights.

It seems that every pirate has a habit of collecting treasures. Yi Lin is currently a rising star of the pirates who is about to become one of the "Nine Great Pirate Kings". , and did not forget to patronize these treasures.

Ever since, Yi Lin also borrowed a lot of treasures.

Even Ruth didn't know how much money Yi Lin had at present.

Currently, Yi Lin can even use "gold coins" as [unstable explosives], but the density of gold coins is far less than that of "explosive beads", so there is no other benefit to using them except to show off their wealth.

When Yi Lin took out a stack of ancient treasure maps, Ruth and Sachs' eyes lit up.

Just like a man meets a woman, Ruth saw Elizabeth Lin's eyes.

"This is... a treasure map?"

Ruth randomly picked up a roll, observed it carefully, and exclaimed in a low voice.

"Boat, captain, why are there so many?"

Yi Lin smiled slightly, but did not explain.

Ruth quickly figured out the origin of these treasure maps, and by the way, mourned for those poor captains for a while.

After the silence, she didn't talk nonsense, spread out several treasure maps, and studied them carefully.

At the same time, Ruth was secretly moved. Her dear sister Lin took out the treasure map that every pirate flocked to. This was undoubtedly a kind of trust in her.

Acridine~ Next time I massage my sister, I must use all kinds of tricks, just thank my captain!

Seeing Ruth's strange expression, Yi Lin didn't think much about it.

Sachs also had bright eyes, silently checking the content and location recorded in the treasure map.

Yi Lin quietly observed the expressions of the two.

I secretly pondered in my heart.

From the looks of it, is the treasure's temptation to pirates really that great?

Yi Lin suddenly had a lot of ideas.

It's just that it's unrealistic to turn these ideas into a plan for a while.

Before going to bed tonight, Yi Lin decided to raise her pillow and think about her next plan.

The task of becoming the "Nine Great Pirate Kings" should not be as simple as it seems on the surface.

In the current world, the only apostle Yi Lin has come into contact with is Wang Tiandi... er no, it's a dog.

Other opponents may have already walked ahead of Yi Lin, and it is very possible.

This time, the world trial map is too vast. If you don't do something about it, the final evaluation is very likely to be mediocre, and you won't be able to obtain an S-level or above evaluation.

While Yi Lin was thinking about how to deceive people, Ruth and Sachs had roughly looked at the several treasure maps on the table.

"If I'm not mistaken... this treasure map should record the location of the legendary 'Spring of Lost Men and Women'."

Ruth threw the treasure map in her hand onto the table with a strange expression.

"The lost spring of men and women?"

Yi Lin was actually interested, and hurriedly asked.

Sachs seemed to have heard of the "Fountain of Lost Men and Women", his expression changed, and he pinched his legs in fright.

"Legends say that anyone who can bathe in the 'Fountain of Lost Men and Women' can change their gender..." Ruth explained with a smile: "That is to say, a man can become a woman, and a woman can become a man!"

"Wonderful!" Yi Lin suddenly patted her thigh.

Ruth: "?"

Sachs: "?"

Dahai: "???"

After thinking about it carefully, Ruth understood Yi Lin's thoughts.

She shook her head and explained: "Baby... Captain, it's not as simple as you think. This spring water is actually a terrible curse. People who have bathed in the 'Male and Female Spring' can't really switch genders. As long as they touch Cold water, it will return to its original shape, and once it touches hot water, it will change gender again..."

Speaking of which.

Ruth pointed to the distance, smiling strangely: "And the most important thing in this sea is cold water."

Yi Lin: "..."

never mind.

If it is touched by cold water and turns back into a woman, it is tantamount to bearing an extra curse, which is not worth it.

And, for other pirates, the "spring of men and women" does not have much appeal.

After all, Yi Lin can be sure that no pirate is willing to be cursed to become a "woman".

At this time.

Sachs selected one from the stack of treasure maps, and handed it to Yi Lin with a calm expression: "Captain, please read this one."

"Um?"

Ruth's delicate body was startled, and before Yi Lin could take over, she subconsciously snatched it from Sachs, and after carefully identifying the ancient words on the parchment scroll, her tone trembled slightly: "Wait, is this a legend? The...'Golden Stone' in it?"

Sachs nodded: "Very likely."

Touchstone?

Quite as the name suggests.

Yi Lin asked again: "Is it attractive to pirates?"

Sachs and Ruth said at the same time: "Very big!"

Yi Lin slapped her little hand and said, "That's it! Xiao Sa, show me the way!"

Sachs: "???"

Little Sa?

But Sachs didn't struggle with this nickname for too long, and carefully took out an ancient compass from his arms.

He carefully compared the treasure map with the nautical chart, combined with the direction of the compass, and soon after, Sachs pointed out the course.

Ruth frowned slightly.

She watched the movement of Sachs, and felt that the shaking of the compass needle was a bit strange.

But Ruth thought about it again, maybe Xiao Sa's compass is too old, and it's not surprising, as long as it works.

Under Xiao Sa's guidance, the course of the Queen was quickly settled.

In order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the crew, Yi Lin didn't hide anything, and directly told every crew member of the Queen about the destination of the ship.

When the group of pirates, who regard gold coins as their lives, learned that Yi Lin actually possessed the treasure map of the "Golden Stone", they raised their heads to the sky and howled uncontrollably, feeling that they had not boarded the wrong ship.

What is reflected in the captain's panel is that almost every crew member's loyalty has increased by a small amount.

Even "Loyal Charlie", the loyalty has skyrocketed from "15" to "18", which is gratifying.

Yi Lin gradually got acquainted with the gameplay of the "Captain Panel", and felt that this trial in the other world was very interesting.

This "Queen" is not equipped with too powerful firepower.

There are a total of 42 cannons on the left and right strings, which are divided into "14-pound iron bullets" and "8-pound iron bullets" cannons of two calibers.

Other materials such as rum, fresh water, vegetables, bacon, and black bread were stored separately and calculated by Ruth.

Sailing on the sea requires not only fighting strength, but also a reasonable consumption of supplies. Otherwise, even if you are an apostle, you are very likely to die of starvation or thirst in the sea.

In this way, it was a very clear choice to recruit Ruth, who had been a tavern proprietress for many years, on board.

Not to mention that Yi Lin needed Ruth's help every time she got dressed, and if Yi Lin was to do it alone, it would take a lot of energy to calculate the consumption of those materials.

Well, in addition, the top massage technique is also very practical.

Nice!

After the little treasure hunter Sax left.

Yi Lin told Ruth: "Later, I will make a few rubbings of the treasure map of the 'Golden Stone'. I will use it."

Ruth heard that, although she was full of doubts about Yi Lin's order, she didn't bother to ask more questions, twisted her waist, and went to do things for Yi Lin.

After obtaining the rubbings of the treasure map, Yi Lin stuffed the originals of the "Treasure Map of the Golden Stone Treasure Map" into empty rum bottles while no one was looking, and then quietly threw them into the sea.

"I hope it works..."

...

...

Another week passed.

The voyage was eerily calm.

This surprised Ruth, and even repeatedly confirmed whether Yi Lin was a woman when she massaged Elizabeth Lin.

——Confirmation is correct.

Didn't it be agreed that bringing a woman on board would bring bad luck?

What about bad luck?

Yi Lin also found it strange.

After he boarded Nolando's boat last time, he encountered a devastating shipwreck within 12 hours. Till now, Yi Lin doesn't know whether poor Nolando can survive that shipwreck.

Let's not mention this matter for now.

Because of that damned curse, just to be on the safe side, Yi Lin even ordered the crew to use a dozen empty wooden barrels, tightly tied them together with cables, and hung them at the stern for standby.

This puzzling move made the mystery of the "Skeleton Gentleman Captain" soar in the hearts of the crew.

Isn't there a lifeboat?

No one could guess what the captain was thinking.

Yi Lin just felt that since "a woman on a boat" would bring bad luck, then it shouldn't be a problem if it wasn't a boat.

The last time Yi Lin carried an empty wooden barrel across the ocean and arrived safely at Tetuga Island.

After this safe week.

On this day, there was finally a change.

Suddenly, a shocked voice came from the observation deck.

"In front of the bow, yes, there is a ship grave! Be careful, everyone! It's a ship grave! A ship grave!"

In an instant.

All the pirates who were busy stopped their movements at the same time.
