Our family is in decline

Lance looked at the strange scenes around him and seemed to understand its sinister intentions.

Or maybe He just "it" retained the scene at that time, and repeating it is just a more evil method of torture.

Suddenly the sound of the chains colliding sounded again, and Lance's spirit also lifted!

Listening to the sound of chains, Lance suddenly realized the reactions of the drowned crew members.

By the way, the crew was struggling to escape the cursed ship, but something was tying them to the ship.

It's those chains!

Lance realized something, and the drowned crew members on the other side also reacted from their fantasy.

The captain rang the bell, the harp player played the harp, and the sound of the chains suddenly made the sunken ship lively again, which had just calmed down for a long time.

Hearing the whistling sound in his ears, Lance ducked away. The next second, the anchor hit the deck and penetrated directly.

But this was not the only thing on the ship, the drowned crew members also used their abilities to attack Lance.

Lance moved around, without any desire to fight, and quickly cleared away the drowned crew members.

The anchor fell to the lower level, but when the iron chain was thrown, it broke out again, as dexterously as a giant python.

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Lance dared to stretch out his hands to grab it.

At the moment of contact, black flames billowed on both arms, revealing the arm armor, and at the same time, a dull sound exploded, which turned out to be a firm grip.

But the strange thing is that the thing actually increased in weight out of thin air, pressing towards Lance like a hill.

But after finally finding the rightful owner, how could Lance give up?

The gauntlets of both hands turned into black flames in an attempt to get at the anchor, but a strange force appeared on them, dispersing the black flames and turning them into rings again.

And that power actually increased in weight out of thin air, directly weighing Lance down.

Upon seeing this, Lance seemed to understand that this guy was difficult to deal with, but some forces were not easily resisted.

Blessings, start!

A steady stream of spiritual energy transformed into strength to strengthen his body, and his strength seemed to increase out of thin air.

"Kouya——!"

A loud shout echoed in the cave. Lance's face was ferocious, his red neck was covered with veins, and the exposed muscles on his body were divided into strands like kinks on steel ropes. At this time, his skin appeared red, even in this weather and place. There was actually sweat rising up.

The overlord raises the cauldron!

The figure seemed to be made of steel. Instead of falling, it became more stable and firmly controlled the anchor.

There was no big move between the two, but the intensity of the confrontation was probably only known to both parties.

Until an instant, the deck could no longer withstand the terrifying power of both sides and collapsed, and Lance fell off the deck together with the anchor.

The countless drowned ghosts in the lower cabin came again with resentment towards the living. Even so, Lance refused to let go.

Lance stood among the wandering ghosts, with no fear on his face, and his determination seemed to be shaken by nothing.

Such a scene would horrify even an inhuman thing. This thing seemed to be a living thing and wanted to shrink, but Lance never let go of what he had obtained.

Lance dragged hard and used his inhuman strength to pull out a section of the chain.

He also grabbed the connection between the anchor and the chain with his hand, and put his back hand behind his back, dragging the chain directly like a hard worker on the dock tugboat.

Spirituality nourished Lance like running water, and the originally stagnant movements were difficult to step out again. Every time he took a step, there would be a fragile cracking sound from the sunken ship behind him, and the chain was being dragged out uncontrollably.

Every step over a distance of hundreds of meters seemed to be stepping on the souls of those deep divers, until there was a sudden pause, and even the entire sunken ship could not help but shake slightly, showing its power.

Until finally he could no longer hold on, and the planks of the sunken ship were broken. You must know that the ship was leaning forward. Now Lance couldn't help but stumbled and fell out.

When he turned back, he realized that the anchor end had fallen into the water, moving like a shark in the water, breaking through the waves and heading towards him.

Lance threw away the chain in an instant, and instead of pulling out the fangs, he took out the candle-burning priest's suit and put a shield in front of him. A violent collision was triggered almost in the next second, and the steel roared and splashed sparks.

The surging power even made Lance, who had not yet stood firm, take a step back, and the chain wrapped around Lance's body at this moment.

At this critical moment, Lance quickly adjusted his condition and swung the warhammer to hit the anchor, making a fierce sound like blacksmithing.

What Lance didn't expect was that the silent war hammer actually burst out with strong sacred power when it collided with the anchor.

A dazzling light burst out, catching even Lance by surprise.

The chain that was originally intended to drag Lance suddenly lost its strength and became limp.

Lance realized something, and immediately swung his war hammer and struck the anchor like iron. He seemed to hear something screaming under the continuously blooming light.

The hammer suddenly stopped, but it was followed by a more deadly [Sacrifice].

When the decision was successful, Lance curled his lips and said something.

"Sink into the void, you idiot!"

The anchor chain that had made Lance so embarrassed slid rapidly in front of the mighty force of the void, and was dragged into the void uncontrollably like noodles, with no resistance at all.

And an even more strange scene appeared. Also swallowed by the void was the wreckage of the sunken ship, which disappeared together with the broken bow.

Lance stood there a little confused, but he was certain of one thing.

Sure enough, this is the whole...

I couldn't help but think of the Roma ship that was strengthened by the ritual. If the ship hadn't been destroyed and broken into two parts by the violent force of nature, I'm afraid even Lance wouldn't be able to shake the anchor containing the strange power after the above ritual bonus. .

Gifts appear and a music box falls into Lance's hands.

When it was opened, there was a melodious and brisk melody, and Lance's originally tired spirit seemed to be healed.

Damn it! This bay is the sanatorium, right?

It's [Siren Snail] and [Purifying Coral], and now with the addition of [Aria Box], the pressure is greatly reduced!

The same gift was the bell in the hands of the drowned captain just now.

Originally, Lance didn't feel much about it, but it was another extraordinary piece of equipment.

Until I took the [Captain's Bell] in my hand and studied it for a moment, I suddenly fell into ecstasy as if I had discovered something.

He turned around and glanced at the scene, making sure there was nothing of value before rushing out towards the source of the light.

The depth of the water began to deepen from the feet to the calves, and there were stone paths dug out on the left and right sides. Lance ran out along the way, and his excitement was really hard to understand.

Facing the ocean again, Lance didn't seem to focus on it at this time. Instead, he stood at the entrance of the cave and rang the bell. He saw mist rising inexplicably in the air, and the next second a ship with a dilapidated and gloomy shape appeared. The ships broke through the fog and appeared on the water.

"Fuck! Ghost ship!"

Lance had no education, so he could only let out an exclamation when he saw this.

Yes, the bell in Lance's hand is the key to controlling the ship and can summon it from the void.

And if you study it carefully, you will find that this is the sunken ship just now, and the traces of fracture are still there, but it has been forcibly put back together.

But it seems that no one knows when it will break again...

No wonder the sacrifice of such a big thing just now had no spirituality at all, and just dropped a music box and a bell.

Lance was very happy looking at the tattered pirate ship. Of course, the bell in his hand could also control other things on the ship, because the ship was also alive.

It is not alive in the true sense, but the power on the ship has activated everything inside, so Lance can control it with the help of the bell.

As for ability...

Lance still needs to explore, but the only thing that is certain is that the spiritual energy required to summon it makes Lance very distressed.

When the excitement passed, Lance realized that he was really an idiot. That was the spirituality that could elevate a person to an elite level.

In other words, this ship needs to consume an elite every time it sets sail, which is even worse than the black armor.

Standing on the rocks and blowing the sea breeze calmed down the heated brain.

At this time, Lance discovered something interesting, that is, a little further out, there were some man-made buildings made of wood, which looked very awkward over there.

Lance walked over out of curiosity and could probably tell that it was a small, dilapidated dock.

Undead, sunken ships, bays, docks...the appearance of these things reminded Lance of something, and the vague memory began to revive.

correct!

As mentioned before, in order to collect occult knowledge and research, the ancestor hired a notorious fleet.

That is to say, those pirates traveled around under the orders of their ancestors and collected many rare cultural relics, remains and ancient texts.

However, as the excavation progressed, more and more curious snoopers appeared along the old road, so the ancestor had to consider transporting the weirdest goods by water.

The location is that the old house follows the stone path from the back door to the edge of the sea cliff, and a small pier is built at the current location.

For this reason, the ancestors also designed exquisite pulley equipment, which can pull the heaviest cargo from the ship safely.

In this way he avoided prying eyes.

Since he is said to be a notorious pirate, it is naturally impossible for him to be so honest, especially as Hamlet gradually declines. On the contrary, those pirates continue to become pirate kings relying on their ancestors.

Until that day finally arrived, the pirates used their ancestor's request to keep the secret to try to increase their commission.

But their opponent is the ancestor, and this behavior is undoubtedly courting death!

Because the ancestor would not allow his secrets to be leaked, not to mention that the precious money had already been spent on necessary places by the ancestor.

So while the ancestor comforted them, he also prepared...another "reward" for them.

The pirates easily listened to the Ancestor. When the greedy pirates were asleep after the carnival, the Ancestor came to their ship and cast all the spells he could think of in his life on their anchor.

You must know that at that time, our ancestors had been studying mysticism for a long time, and those necromancers were still riding on the pirate ship Hamlet to become their teachers.

At the moment of the magic attack, the anchor, with supernatural power, full of curses and contempt for their extortion, and the great ambition of the ancestors, dragged the entire ship and people together into the bottomless sea. deep.

Finally, these poor people were chained and submerged forever... They must have screamed in despair, but even the most desperate wails could not escape from the dark and turbulent waves...

For the ancestors, it was most appropriate that these pirate captains and crew members who were tied up in chains and sunk to the bottom of the sea died the same way sailors died.

It may be that strong resentment and the ship's rituals produced some reaction.

Or maybe the captain came into contact with so many weird things, leaving one or two that were triggered on the ship.

Anyway, in an indescribable process, the entire pirate ship was transformed into a ghost ship, and the crew members were twisted into undead.

Even so, the soul is imprisoned on the ship, repeating the scene of drowning.

They are cursed to wander here forever, in the deep darkness of the roaring waves, in a place where light can never reach...

It can only be said that the ancestor is too vicious. He can kill people with no more than a nod of his head. Such torture shows that the ancestor is so ruthless.

But now, for some unknown reason, the sunken ship returned from the Abyss of the Sunless Sea to seek revenge on its ancestors, but everything has changed as time has passed.

All of these are connected together, and there is no doubt that this is the masterpiece of the ancestor. Only then does Lance seem to understand that he has blocked the knife for this guy.

From this point of view, both the deep divers and the drowned crew members in the bay are inseparable from the ancestor.

And Lance?

Although he slaughtered deep divers and sacrificed sunken ships, he was just a poor ordinary person who was involved.

A brief summary of what happened, that is, Lance experienced it all personally, otherwise it would be too damn abstract.

A fallen civilization was twisted into a deep diver, and the other was transformed into an undead by the spell cast by the ancestor.

Today, it has been swept into the dust of history, and no one except Lance will know about it.

Lance was filled with emotion, but understood that this emotion was not suitable for him, and immediately set his sights on the ghost ship.

"What name should I give it? Flying Henanese? Or the Auditorium Black Pearl? Would it be more normal to call it Iceberg Queen..."

Lance struggled for a while. He hated coming up with names the most.

But at this moment, something interrupted his attention. Looking around, he saw a mast and sail protruding from the sea level.

Can't see the flag, but at this time close to the old town side of Hamlet...

Could it be that the news spread by Roma Serra after he returned has reached the pirates?

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why he would come to such a place.

only……

"How did you know that Hamlet was short of a ship? How did you know that I was having a headache how to transport the harvest back?"

Looking at the approaching ship, Lance murmured...
