Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

In the thick fog that I couldn't even see my fingers, a "dong dong dong" sound suddenly sounded, and the sound seemed to be in front for a while, and then behind again.

Alger said: "I seemed to hear the sound of the waves."

Hobert thought for a while: "This place already has some characteristics of the spiritual world. We cannot use the concepts of distance and position in the real world to determine our position. Maybe we feel that we are motionless, but in fact our position is constantly changing. among."

He paused and added: "The direction to the sea, that is at least a reference."

But the closer we get to the sea, the louder the sound of "dong dong dong~" becomes.

The two people stopped again. Although their spirits did not issue a warning, according to their experience, strange sounds in this fog often indicate strange power or terrifying things.

So the two people tried to walk in the opposite direction of the sound, but when they first started walking, the sound was still behind them. After a few steps, the "dong dong dong" sound appeared in front of them again.

It was like this after trying it several times, but it was getting closer and closer to the source of the sound.

"It seems that it is targeting us." Hobert said while checking his magical items: "Maybe we and it are attracted to each other.

"Since we can't escape, let's go and see what the sound is."

Alger had similar thoughts and followed closely.

Soon, a huge black shadow appeared in the fog ahead.

Hobert sounded very generous just now, but after seeing the huge black shadow, his steps became extremely cautious.

Dong Dong Dong~

The voice sounded again, not far ahead.

Alger suddenly said: "This seems to be a stranded ship."

This is an old pirate who has been hanging out at sea. Things on the sea are his best field.

After Alger said this, Hobert realized that the huge thing in front of him did look like the prow of a ship.

Dong Dong Dong~

The sound seemed to hit the two people's hearts, making their chests feel a little heavy.

Why is there such a noise on the ship?

Taking another two steps forward, they saw a figure under the boat, pounding the hull with a hammer.

The figure holding the hammer stopped and asked in a hoarse voice: "Who is there?"

Hobert asked, "Who are you?"

"Of course I am a sailor of the Aryan! The storm just now caused us to run aground. We are waiting for the tide to rise. Before the tide rises, the captain asked me to repair the leak in the bottom of the ship."

Hobert and Alger looked through the fog and saw the sailor. He had a pair of pitch-black eyes. The eyeballs were completely black with no whites.

The sailor's hair was disheveled, and his specific appearance could not be seen clearly. He was wearing a fairly neat sailor's uniform, holding a hammer in one hand and holding several boards under his other arm.

Except for his eyes, everything about the other party looked normal, but the place where he appeared was not normal.

The two well-informed veterans were very wary in their hearts, but they didn't show it on their faces.

Hobert also looked at the bottom of the ship decently: "Thank you for your hard work. It seems that the ship suffered a lot of damage in the storm."

In fact, the ship had been broken into two parts, but it was not completely broken. Not a single mast was left, and all the masts were broken. Visually, there were four or five large holes in the ship. Fortunately, it was on the shore. It was estimated that it would sink immediately as soon as it hit the sea.

Hobert looked at the hammer in "Sailor's" hand and the wooden plank in the other hand. Even if he was given a dock, he would be able to repair the ship.

"Yes." The sailor said: "The storm just now was really big! The captain said that the underworld was blown open! Hahaha. But even so, we did not lose our target."

Hobert smiled softly: "Your captain is quite humorous."

He asked: "What is your goal?"

"Of course it's the 'Trunsoest Empire'!" The sailor pointed forward with his finger: "Look, it's right there, it's not far away yet!"

Following the sailor's fingers, the fog in front of Hobert and Alger suddenly opened, and they saw the clear sky again and the cumulonimbus clouds reaching from the coast to the sky.

Click~

On the cumulonimbus clouds, a huge lightning flashed past, and a huge ship shadow was illuminated in the cumulonimbus clouds!

Hobert felt like he had goosebumps. The ship was visually estimated to be at least a dozen stories high. The huge sail seemed to be full of wind and was pushing the giant ship forward quickly!

Hobert was surprised: "That is the legacy of the Trunsoest Empire."

Alger said: "The legend of the Trunsoest Empire's treasure is true!"

"Hahahaha!" the sailor laughed: "These despicable Trunsoests, they built this big ship and prepared to set a trap for the emperor of the great undead empire.

"But the wise King of the Underworld understood all this. He took the island that built this big ship, which was originally close to the northern continent, and moved it closer to the southern continent, and then issued a curse from the Kingdom of the Undead to them.

"However, these Trunsoests did not lose their reputation and actually escaped in a boat. So we were ordered to chase them and sink them!"

Thick fog appeared again, blocking the sky and cumulonimbus clouds again.

Hobert quickly calmed down from the shock. He remembered that Lester had left the Duke of Seville's notes in the room containing the corpse of the ancient god of death, which recorded this incident.

At that time, Mr. Azik said that the Night Emperor fell before the Pluto Emperor stepped into the trap.

Perhaps it was because of the death of the Night Emperor that the Pluto Emperor became aware of this trap and sabotaged it.

In any case, this is an "old case" from more than a thousand years ago!

Hobert did not continue to think about it, but smiled and said: "I wish you success as soon as possible, and we will not disturb your work."

The sailor stared with black eyes: "You haven't told me yet, who are you? Why are you here?"

Both Hobert and Alger felt that the broken ship in front of them...or some kind of power on the ship was awakening, and a sense of fear filled the surrounding dense fog.

Hobert was very familiar with this kind of fear. He had suffered enough from the torment of this fear in the ruins of the Trunsoest nobles.

However, he had to remain calm at this time, so Hobert took a deep breath and said: "We are the messengers transporting the undead from the nearby sea, and we encountered you in this special fog."

As he spoke, Hobert poured spirituality into the "psychic wine glass", letting himself exude the aura of the undead.

The sailor asked again: "Are you here to take me to the great kingdom of the dead?"

"No." Hobert said: "Your captain is not joking. The storm just now really blew a hole in the underworld, so you can see us."
