Infinity Throne

Old Gibbs gave full play to the shameless spirit of the pirates and shamelessly ordered a glass of rum.

There was wine, there were gold coins, and there was a story.

Old Gibbs spoke leisurely.

"We have been led by Captain Jack across mountains and seas."

"Oh, that boat we had was a charming lady. You have never seen a boat in your life that can leave all the boats behind. Anyone and any boat in front of it can only stare into the black. Ms. Pearl’s stunning and sexy ass.”

Yi Lin asked curiously: "Where is that ship?"

Old Gibbs shrugged helplessly: "Shen."

Yi Lin: "..."

"Ah, we once reached the abyss of Davy Jones and brought Captain Jack Sparrow back from the dead. Believe me, that was an adventure story you could never imagine in your lifetime."

"Davy Jones?"

"Oh, that poor octopus is dead too, hehe."

Yi Lin: "..."

"We traveled across the Caribbean and defeated the legendary Blackbeard. Damn it, that damn Blackbeard is a man with black magic. In front of him, Captain Jack is as fragile as the woman on Tetuga Island. Hehe, But Blackbeard died in the end, in front of the Fountain of Youth."

"Old Gibbs bets that Blackbeard is in hell now, still cursing Captain Jack Sparrow for a good death."

"Why?"

"Because the poor Blackbeard sent his own daughter to Captain Jack's bed."

Yi Lin: "..."

Old Gibbs became more and more enthusiastic as he talked. After all, it had been a long time since anyone had sat quietly across from him and listened to his bragging.

This feeling is, ah, so evocative.

Old Gibbs took another swig of rum.

He suddenly felt that something was missing.

Oh, yes, it’s a look of admiration.

He was clearly talking about the adventurous career of a legendary pirate. The little kid in front of him naturally showed an expression of admiration. Could it be that old Gibbs' storytelling skills were not deep enough?

Think about it.

Old Gibbs recalled another incident.

"I remember back then, Captain Jack offended most of the people in the Caribbean. Whether they were undead or ghost ships, Captain Jack had offended them all. Finally one day, a damn undead led an army back to trouble Captain Jack... Hey, I bet you have never seen anything called undead."

"Oh, it's okay. I've seen a lot of them. You go on."

Old Gibbs: "..., cough cough cough cough!"

The strong rum accidentally choked into his lungs. Old Gibbs coughed for a long time, and then looked at the young man in front of him with a strange look.

Boy, you boasted so much about your awesomeness all of a sudden that it’s hard for me, old man, to continue boasting!

Do you understand what leaving room for means?

Do you understand what it means to respect the elderly and cherish the young?

Do you understand what modesty is?

Gibbs said with some irritation.

Ding!

Yi Lin smiled and shook his head. He turned his palm and another gold coin fell on the table.

Gibbs looked happy, and he was instantly inspired, and continued: "Old Gibbs still remembers that day when the sky collapsed, the sea split, the earth shook, the stars fell... Oh, that kind of scenery, I dare Bet you have never seen it... We found the legendary Poseidon's trident at the end of the stars."

"Then what?"

"It was broken into pieces by the captain. Moreover, an old guy also died there."

Old Gibbs didn't know what he thought of. He raised his glass to the empty void, then raised his head and drank it all.

Finished another glass.

Yi Lin combined old Gibbs' fragmentary story with the intelligence he had collected so far, and asked a question: "But didn't I hear that the trident was glued together?"

Old Gibbs suddenly came closer mysteriously and waved to Yi Lin.

Although this pretentious and mysterious gesture made Yi Lin feel a little funny, in order to satisfy old Gibbs' pleasure in showing off, Yi Lin still complied with the expression of a curious baby and moved her head closer.

Old Gibbs lowered his voice.

"Let me tell you a secret. Not many people in this sea know that the person who glued the trident back together was actually Captain Jack. Hehehe——"

"Oh why?"

"Because..." Old Gibbs burped: "The thing Captain Jack regrets most in his life is to release a cunning guy from the human body. Therefore, in order to make up for it, Old Captain Jack personally I set sail and found the fragments of the trident. I used the glued Poseidon Trident to seal the cunning guy in the sea..."

"Hehehe, that cunning guy is called Ka——"

Before Old Gibbs finished speaking, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped a few points. Yi Lin's heart moved. Before Old Gibbs said the name, he suddenly reached out his hand and covered Old Gibbs' mouth.

Old Gibbs stared.

"Shh-I've seen the guy you're talking about."

Yilin still carries "Calypso's gaze". Although now on land, Yilin no longer feels the feeling of being spied on, but if old Gibbs says that name in front of Yilin, Yilin will Rin was afraid something would happen.

Boom——

Snapped!

Old Gibbs, eyes wide open, stood up abruptly, overturned the stool behind him, and sat down on the ground again, his expression full of horror.

"You, you, you...have you seen her? Are you cursed by her?"

As expected, old Gibbs never dared to mention that name again.

"So be it."

Unlike the panicked old Gibbs, Yi Lin's expression was very calm.

It was as if this curse was not placed on him.

"Could it be—" Old Gibbs didn't get up for a long time. He looked at Yi Lin with an expression of surprise and uncertainty. But within just ten seconds, he guessed Yi Lin's intention and roared in a low voice with only two people's voices. Said: "No wonder! It turns out you came to old Gibbs to find the 'Trident'! That's it!"

Yi Lin didn't explain much, just smiled and took out another gold coin and placed it gently on the table.

Old Gibbs stood up and sat down again.

But this time, he was not as anxious as before.

He stared at the shiny gold coin on the table with his eyes wide open, not daring to pick it up for a long time.

finally.

Old Gibbs sighed: "It's a pity that even I, without Captain Jack Sparrow, can't find the 'Trident'. No one in this world can find it!"

"Why?"

"Hey, you don't understand. In order to prevent someone from releasing 'her' again, Captain Jack hid the trident on a small island that was not marked on the navigation chart. Only Captain Jack can find the trident!"

Old Gibbs sounded very determined.

"What about the Captain Jack you're talking about?"

"Maybe dead, maybe somewhere happy and happy! Who knows! Ever since old Jack and Eliza - well, oh, it's a sad story, you'd better not know it."

Old Gibbs was about to speak, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

Eliza——?

Elizabeth?

etc.

Yi Lin suddenly remembered someone from the Swan family.

Elizabeth Swann?

From the tone of old Gibbs, it seems that there is a lot of story in it?

Yi Lin silently counted the gold coins in the storage space. Even though Yi Lin was generous, he was not rich enough to throw away all the gold coins.

Damn greedy pirate!

Yi Lin was speechless.

Ignore the small gossip for now and focus on getting some useful information.

Yilin thought for a moment, and combined all the information, it was known that the "Poseidon Trident", which was broken by Captain Jack and then put back together again and barely used, should be a key prop that can influence the plot. If you can think of it, If you can get the method, it will be very useful whether it is for the heaviest clearance evaluation or... in short.

So, Yi Lin asked without giving up: "Since it is not marked on the treasure map, how can Captain Jack find the trident?"

Old Gibbs chuckled: "Captain Jack is different, he is a man with a compass."

"compass?"

When Yi Lin heard this, her expression instantly became strange.

"Yes, Captain Jack's compass is different from ordinary compasses. That magical compass can point to the treasure that people desire most. Those legendary adventure stories all depend on Captain Jack's compass... huh? Damn rum, Old Gibbs seems drunk?"

Old Gibbs stared at the familiar small object in Yi Lin's palm, and subconsciously rubbed his drunken eyes. No, he rubbed it again and again, almost drawing blood. The compass was exactly the same as in his memory. Still in Yi Lin's hands, unmoving.

"That compass!"

Old Gibbs' breath froze and his expression froze. His old hand suddenly showed amazing agility and snatched the compass from Yi Lin's hand.

The moment the compass changed hands, the pointer on the compass started spinning crazily and never stopped.

"How come you have this compass in your hand?"

Yi Lin didn't know how to explain the origin of this compass for a while.

He always felt it was a coincidence.

Captain Jack Sparrow has traveled through this world's past.

A little Sa with a compass.

Old Gibbs who once followed Captain Jack Sparrow on his adventures.

"Is it because of Elizabeth Rin?"

The corner of Yi Lin's mouth twitched slightly, and she secretly complained in her heart.

How much hatred and resentment is this?

The love, hatred and resentment of several generations in three lives and seven generations?

Isn't it too bloody?

So this is the reason why this plot mode must adopt a role-playing mode?

He happened to be wearing the vest of "Elizabeth Rin". Could it be because he was too unlucky?

Yi Lin finally did not explain the origin of the compass for the time being.

After all, Sa and old Gibbs will meet sooner or later.

Under Old Gibbs' shocked expression, Yi Lin quickly snatched the compass back and put it back in the storage space.

This is a key prop and cannot be lost.

"I'm building a ship."

Yi Lin smiled slightly.

"no way!"

Old Gibbs immediately understood what Yi Lin meant, and his head shook like a wave. Yi Lin was worried that Old Gibbs' cervical vertebra would slip if he shook his head too violently, and how to fix it.

Yi Lin took out another gold coin calmly.

Old Gibbs gritted his teeth with a very firm expression: "Impossible! I stopped being a pirate a long time ago! I still want to live a few more years!"

Yi Lin remained silent and took out another one.

Old Gibbs began to struggle and couldn't move his eyes away from the pile of gold coins.

Another one.

"..."

Another one.

"But……"

And another and another.

"Oh, my dear Captain, experienced old Gibbs, at your best!"

Old Gibbs quickly put away the pile of gold coins and grinned.

After leaving.

Ruth couldn't help but ask: "Do you really believe that the old guy will take us to find something...'Trident'?"

Not long ago, Yi Lin did not hide anything from Ruth, and told Ruth most of the conversation with old Gibbs.

After all, Ruth will play a very important role in Yi Lin's next plan.

We have to find a way to increase Ruth's loyalty.

On the street, the two of them did not dare to talk too much about private topics, so they returned to Swan Castle as quickly as possible.

It's late at night.

After staying up for two consecutive nights, Yi Lin felt that her skin had deteriorated a lot, and she was too lazy to polish herself. With the help of the servants, Yi Lin took a comfortable hot bath and lay down on a clean bed early. , fell into a deep sleep.

The next day.

Three poles higher in the sun again.

Yi Lin then discussed the next plan with Ruth.

"etc!"

Ruth's eyes widened with disbelief on her face: "Oh, my dear Rin, you must be joking."

Yi Lin shook his head with a solemn expression: "I'm not joking. This matter is very important. I will rest assured only if you do it."

"Acridine!" Ruth became inexplicably arrogant: "Rin, even if you praise me like this, I won't be happy!"

"..."

This arrogant expression almost made Yi Lin blurt out three words: What the hell are you——

Yi Lin glanced at Emperor Wang Tian.

Ruth understood instantly and looked towards Wang Tiandi who was lying on the ground chewing bones.

The two of them instantly understood the essence of the plan.

Ruth understood, but she still hesitated: "But there is no navigation chart or route. Old Gibbs also said that he has no idea where the thing he is looking for is."

"hehe."

Yi Lin smiled slightly and took out [Congxin's Compass] from the storage space.

Then it was thrust into Ruth's hand.

The moment Ruth saw this compass, she suddenly felt that it looked familiar. After a while, Ruth also recognized it: "Huh? Isn't this Sachs's compass? Why is it in your hand?"

"I am a wonderful and charming pirate."

Ruth: "..."

After Ruth held the compass, the pointer on the compass was erratic and could not point to the correct direction at all.

"Is this compass broken?"

Ruth knocked several times depressedly.

"No, that's not how this compass is used."

Yi Lin smiled and explained to Ruth: "There seems to be some kind of black magic on this compass. It does not refer to the direction, but to the person holding the compass, the existence he desires most in his heart. If you think seriously about the 'Poseidon Trident', You should be able to use the compass to find the right direction."

So amazing?

Ruth was also amazed at the mystery of the compass.

No nonsense, Ruth quickly closed her eyes and tried to use this heart-centered compass.

"eager--"

"Hmm~"

"Heart's desire~"

Ruth muttered something.

on the compass.

The pointer trembled suddenly, and then moved wildly, as if reflecting from the side, Ruth's inner turmoil.

finally.

The rotating pointer on the compass finally stopped, pointing motionlessly in a certain direction.

"Um?"

Yi Lin suddenly found that the pointer on the compass was pointed at him.

"In the direction behind me?"

Yi Lin changed positions.

The pointer on the compass slowly moved again, pointing to Elizabeth Lin again.

Yi Lin: "..."

Ruth: "..."

five minutes later.

Yi Lin slowly circled Ruth five times.

He finally determined that the key to the plan, Ruth's desire, was just a little off.

The difference lies in the word "desire".

[Compass from the Heart], as the description says, it must really be a "deep desire in the heart" to trigger the effect of the compass.

Desires that just stay on the surface level of consciousness don’t count.

Just like when she was in the vast sea, Yi Lin tried her best to think about Ruth's skillful techniques, which could be regarded as self-hypnosis, and then used the compass to locate Ruth's location.

But this method requires a certain level of willpower. According to Yi Lin's estimation, Ruth's passive personality cannot replicate Yi Lin's psychological journey when she first found Ruth.

"what to do?"

He remembered his deal with Calypso and began to have a headache.

If he went to the sea to search for it himself, he would never be able to hide it from Calypso's prying eyes.

Only by leaving the sea, completely out of Yi Lin's sight, allowing Ruth and Gouzi to go out to sea alone, and operate on two lines, could it be possible to avoid Calypso's prying eyes.

From various clues, Yi Lin is now 80% sure that Calypso is not a real "god", otherwise it would not have been sealed in the sea by the "Trident" and integrated with the sea. Completely isolated.

Huh!

etc!

Yi Lin suddenly had an idea and thought of a way.

So while Ruth was playing with the compass, Yi Rin asked Ruth to close her eyes again.

"Relax...relax...the energy sinks into the Dantian..."

Ruth: "?"

"Anyway, just relax and don't think too much."

Seeing that Ruth's expression gradually became confused, Yi Lin lay next to Ruth's ear and spoke slowly in a sleep-like tone.

"Ruth, there is a curse on you. Any man who is intimate with you will not die well."

"Um……"

Ruth was speechless. Don’t you know what happened to my mother? Is it necessary for you to say it to hurt your heart?

"You may not know that this Poseidon's trident is the source of all curses on the sea. The reason why you are contaminated with this damn curse is because the trident was broken and then glued back together, so it's so big The curse of the sea has just revived, and it seems to have become more terrifying."

Damn it?

An idea suddenly came to Ruth's mind.

But Yi Lin didn't give Ruth any time to think, and continued to strike while the iron was hot: "If you think about it carefully, your real desire is not just an Elizabeth Lin. Your goal is to have beautiful men all over the world. What you really long for is a relationship." A love that is tossing and turning, sleepless and all night long..."

"Acridine~" Ruth's breath was stagnant. Under Yi Lin's guidance, she thought of some inappropriate scene for children. Her cheeks were as red as a ripe apple.

"So!" Yi Lin's tone suddenly became louder.

"As long as you find Poseidon's trident, you will be able to lift the curse from your body. From now on, you can sleep wherever you want and with whomever you want. Wouldn't it be very happy?"

Right!

Ruth still had her eyes closed though.

But after Yi Lin said these words, there was a bang in his head, like a toilet suddenly opening, and he suddenly became enlightened and bright.

As long as the curse is lifted, can't I sleep with whoever I want? Use whatever posture you want? Any angle you want?

It’s not false at all!

In an instant.

The compass that Ruth held tightly in her hand moved wildly again, and finally settled completely in a certain direction.

Yi Lin quietly moved her buttocks and changed several positions.

Seeing that the pointer pointed without shaking at all, Yi Lin was completely relieved.

Finally, it’s done!

…

…

Yi Lin started to work again.

Counting the time with his fingers, the deadline for the second main mission is getting closer and closer.

Although the punishment was not as exaggerated as direct annihilation, Yi Lin habitually tried her best and was unwilling to fail in a mere second main mission.

The structure of the entire plot trial, in front of Yi Lin, was like a girl shyly unveiling her veil, and her ideas became clearer and clearer.

Perhaps because of this trial in the world, the map is too vast. Yilin has been busy exploring the plot, but has very little interaction with other apostles.

So far, the only people Yi Lin has come into contact with are Gu Tianqing and Wang Tiandi.

The other two apostles seemed to be still wandering on the sea, happily collecting points.

Unfortunately, there is no list similar to the "Reputation List" for this mission. Apart from asking around for information or guessing one or two things from the changes in the bounty, Yi Lin has no other way to guess the other two from the side. The actions of a "pirate ally".

"Heh, this trial is a bit lonely."

Yi Lin had long been accustomed to scheming with each other at the beginning, and even fighting each other. Suddenly, such a lonely journey made Yi Lin a little uncomfortable.

However, an apostle is such a creature. He has traveled all over the world, experienced vicissitudes of life, survival of the fittest, and survival of the fittest. Each mission has a different style and method. Yilin II has never encountered the same other world in his new life. , which is evident from this.

If you are not used to this rhythm, it may be a good thing to eliminate them early.

And at this time.

Yi Lin was wearing gorgeous women's clothes, leisurely enjoying a peaceful afternoon tea with "Elizabeth Lin's father" Old Swan, basking in the sun in the courtyard of the castle.

——Hot black tea, the kind with exquisite handmade pastries.

Although the Swan family has declined, its aristocratic heritage is still there, enough for the family to enjoy a luxurious life.

In addition, Elizabeth Lin has become the fiancée of the Governor. It seems that many other families have begun to fawn over the Swan family in some business aspects.

From the smile that couldn't be hidden on Old Swan's face, Yi Lin roughly guessed that Old Swan had been quite proud of himself recently, smiling silly all day long, and seemed to be dreaming of the Swan family's rejuvenation.

Yi Lin lowered her head gracefully, sipping black tea and nibbling pastries.

"My daughter, thank you for your hard work."

Old Swan suddenly said this with a sigh of relief.

Yi Lin kept smiling, and then asked softly, "Have you made a lot of money recently?"

It would be strange if there were no other families to curry favor with the Swan family as they were about to rely on the Navy Governor.

Old Swan had a stern expression: "It's okay, it's okay, oh, my baby, you know, for a true noble, money is never too much."

Yi Lin was silent for a moment.

Then he said casually: "Oh, damn, I almost forgot, a very important thing."

Old Swan: "?"

"A lot of pirates have appeared in the city recently. I heard that even the legendary 'Skeleton Gentleman' has appeared."

Old Swan's expression was calm: "Don't worry, London is heavily guarded. My good daughter, don't worry, your future husband will never let you be kidnapped by the damn pirates again."

Yi Lin shook her head: "I'm worried about the Swan family's property!"

Old Swan was also stunned: "What are you afraid of? Pirates are not only at sea..."

Yi Lin interrupted Old Swan: "But I heard that everyone knows that pirates are good at using strange methods to rob banks, let alone a mere family's treasure house."

hiss--

Old Swan suddenly took a breath of cold air.

Yi Lin added: "The Swan family's property should be hidden, right?"

"Well, my good daughter, don't worry, our family's treasure is very secretly hidden. It is in the third room on the right side of the corridor on the second floor of the basement, on the bookshelf on the left, second row from top to bottom. Three books, "How To Get Richer" (How to Get Richer), press them to open the secret door!"

Old Swan proudly took out a pure gold key from his collar: "Furthermore, my father keeps the only key to the secret door close to his body, so no one can guess how to enter the Swan family's treasure room. Hey!" Even the damn pirates!”

Yi Lin smiled happily: "Well, damn pirates."
