"That mountain is very steep, ordinary people can't go up, and Orion shouldn't climb that high, even people with some climbing experience won't go up easily. "

"Anyway, let's go to the city. "

"Hmm. "

Alice beckoned everyone to go to the city and said that it was already afternoon, so it was better to find a place to stay first.

The people around saw that Alice and the others wanted to enter the city, looked at the shriveled water bag in their hands, and then looked at the weapons that these people were carrying, and weighed in their hearts that no one dared to step forward to snatch their supplies!

"This is Marseille. "

"Historically, a significant part of the city's population is engaged in marine production. "

A few people walked on the ground paved with large bluestones, and from the depressed scenery around them, they could still see the prosperity of this place, and Romeni took this opportunity to introduce the city to everyone.

"It was a transit point for trade in the Mediterranean, and even in the Atlantic, and it was a place with deep water and no undercurrents, so there was a fair flow of people and ships even at midnight. "

"But.......... It's daytime, and there's no one sighing~" Nameless looked left and right, and there weren't many people scattered in broad daylight, and the surroundings were quiet to death.

"This is also helpless, I am afraid that because even if the sun is not strong during the day, the temperature is not low, and I don't want to be dry and sweaty when the water source cannot be guaranteed. Xiaoxue mentioned it casually.

However, at this moment, the sudden sound of a soothing piano music came out of everyone's ears.

"Piano?" the group stopped, turned their heads to look at the path on the side.

"According to the map, this path should lead to the central square of the city.......... Wait, there's a magic reaction in the center of the square!" Romani just probed and found the problem.

"What!".

The crowd immediately became nervous, and Olga Marie immediately slapped the table and stood up.

"Tighten the vigilance around, there may be an ambush nearby!"

"The radar function can be activated to the maximum........... There are no other reactions within the detection range. "

"The target position remains the same, and the mana strength response is low, and it seems to be .......... Not in combat mode?" Chaldean staff quickly detected and reported.

"What do you say?" said Rika Fujimaru, looking at the main forces around her, and asked with Matthew.

Alice and the others exchanged a glance and nodded to each other with the green-haired pikemen.

"Alright, let's go check it out. "

.........

It is a city that focuses on the development of the marine industry.

It stands to reason that in this age of divine authority and monarchy, fishermen and merchant ships sailing out to sea would set out to pray for peace and that the trip would bring them countless glory and wealth.

However, the sudden change caused the whole sea to be in a state of 'freezing'.

The

sea still exists, but it is frozen, and the people who cannot solve the problem by manpower rightly blame divine punishment for this, so a plaster statue in the central square is surrounded by offerings, and many people are still kneeling and praying for forgiveness.

"Lord Oni, please bless us. "

"Please unseal the sea!"

"I will give everything I have, please forgive us~!".

"If we continue like this, our whole family will die!"

"Please save us!".

Crowds of prostrated people continued to dominate the square, and in one corner of the square, instead of approaching it, the crowd had created an open space with an elegant grand piano, and a gray-haired man in a black vertical suit was playing his music with his eyes closed, as if he were sounding music for the people praying around him, and the magic reaction was also emanating from the man.

"That's right, that person is the Servant. "

"But .......... Looks like she's just playing the piano?" Rika Fujimaru only felt that the other party played very well, and for her, who only had artistic bacteria in her body, art was too arty!

"Be careful, even if it's just playing the piano, it might be some kind of attack, don't be careless against the servants!" Olga Marie snapped.

"Yes, I'm sorry!".

Rika Fujimaru shrunk her neck close to Mathew and hugged her arm, looking aggrieved.

"It should be fine, my sensors don't indicate any power in the sound of the piano, as if it is just praying with the people around me. The Light Green Muskeistol said everything was okay and turned to the statue to see why the Servant was playing music for the person praying to the statue.

"What is this like?" asked Rika Fujimaru, puzzled.

Romani tilted his head, not quite sure, and there was no record of it in the database.

"This is a statue of a ghost, a protector of those who sail to sea. Aunt Dora, like the others, bowed down and explained, and her expression softened considerably, revealing a look of remembrance.

"Ghosts?".

"What kind of evil god is it?" Mathieu felt wrong as soon as he said this, if it was some evil god, he would not have combed the statue in such a conspicuous position in the city.

"No, on the contrary, he's a good god. "

"There has been a legend about the sea for a long time, and no one knows when he will appear, but when a person who is sailing outside encounters an emergency such as a storm or a rainstorm caused by the anger of the sea, or an emergency such as a leak in the cabin, an island will suddenly appear near the ship for the people to take refuge, the island is covered with all kinds of flowers, and there are many specially grown foods, and there are other people living on the island, and there are strange-looking beings living on the island, but they don't look like humans, so everyone thinks that this is an island inhabited by some kind of gods。 "

"If the person who goes to the island is just an ordinary person, as long as he doesn't go into the depths of the forest on the island, even if he picks those foods, replenishes the resources, and will give you a lot of extra medicine supplies, and even if there are any serious injuries and illnesses, he will help you treat, of course, this will be charged, but compared to the loss of life or lifelong pain, those costs are nothing, and when you leave the island, he may also give you some gems as gifts. "

"The god who heals the sick and collects money and then gives gems?" said Rika Fujimaru scratched her head and chuckled.

"It feels like a very realistic and interesting god. "

"Huh?".

"Send gems?".

Hearing the key words, Alice and her party became alert, and had a very strong sense of déjà vu.

"Then why are you called a ghost?" Matthew was even more puzzled, isn't this a very good person?

"For if it were a pirate, a robber, or some ill-intentioned person who landed on the island, he would kill all the people on board, and not every dead body would be left behind, and after killing these people, he would cut off the heads of these pirates, pierce the heart, and hang the corpses on the ships where the pirates had been scuttled, and write warnings on the hull with blood, and let them drift on the sea and turn into ghost ships, and everyone began to call them ghosts and gods from the point of view of the means. Aunt Dora explained.

Fujimaru Rika and Matthew, two little girls who had never seen any cruel world, suddenly shuddered.

"It's so cruel~!".

"It's very decisive, and in order to prevent someone from dying, similar practices are common on the battlefield. "Nameless knows that if it is not dealt with, once there is any undead Kabane mixed in, there may be more than one person who will die by then!

"Still. Aunt Dora stood up. It was precisely because of this cruel method that the security of the sea at that time was much better, and many pirates did not dare to go into the water easily, and even returned to the right path because of fear, at that time the trade and fishing activities at sea were much easier, even at midnight there were not a few people who dared to go to sea, and the sea was flickering with bright fishing fires all night, and the light strip formed by it even exceeded the guiding ability of the lighthouse. "

"And the place where he appeared was erratic, and there were also cases where the fleet in the Atlantic Ocean met the fleet in the Mediterranean on the island, and everyone exchanged goods directly, and in the end they all made a lot of money. "

"Well, there is a sense of déjà vu of a third-party online shopping platform............. "Rika Fujimaru couldn't help complaining.

"It's not just a legend.................. I've encountered it before. "

"When I was very young, my father took me out to sea to do business, and I happened to have a storm, and I came across that island when the mast broke and the bottom of the boat hit the reef and leaked. Aunt Dora reminisced about her childhood, when she was just in the cabin watching the water rushing in and hugging her father and crying.

But the ship, which was about to sink in the next moment, washed up on a beach in the empty sea.

"At that time, he also helped us repair the ship, and even when he saw me crying out of fear, he gave me a bouquet of flowers to amuse me and gave me a jewel as an amulet. "

"And that gem is now on my daughter................." Aunt Dora said with a look of loneliness, sadness, and worry.

And the rest of the people who listened to this around them, including those who followed the crowd all the way, and those who had already bowed down in advance around them, couldn't help but turn their heads to look at this person who had really experienced it, because judging from the rumors, there are really not many people who have obtained gems!

"That's not what you're talking about, is that what the gem looks like?"
