The red-nosed Kent's eyes are particularly good. When Finx chose him as a lookout, it was because of his extremely useful eyes.But besides that, Kent also has a good sword. It is said that he learned it from an oriental samurai in the Pacific, and his combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

If he was on a ship, he should be standing on the tall tower that Cyclone in the Arctic Ocean liked to visit most.But now he is in the team going to Baiyue Mountain, looking around, there is white snow everywhere, it seems that they are the only people left in the world.

Everyone was surprisingly quiet along the way, except for the "creaking" sound of feet stepping on the snow.

"Finks, are we heading in the right direction?" Algabe ran from the back of the team to the front. The veteran sailor who had experienced many battles couldn't help but feel a little worried at this moment.They have set off for nearly two hours, but they still haven't entered Baiyue Mountain.God, this is so unusual.Logically speaking, this island should not be big, and Baiyue Mountain is just a small hill with an altitude of 300 meters.

Finks held the logbook and almost took a step to look at it. His sense of direction was very good. Coupled with his previous experience, it was impossible for him to go the wrong way with a map!But... since the direction is correct, according to the map, they should have arrived long ago.

In addition to the self-drawn nautical chart, there is also a paragraph in the log that specifically describes how the navigator accidentally broke into the Frost Cape and encountered the polar ice flower.Nolan once read it to him word for word:

On October 10th, 14 days after leaving Portugal, I used two chests of gold to obtain the permission of the iron hat, and finally entered this icy ocean.The water in the Arctic Ocean is fresh and clear, and you can see humpback whales cruising from time to time.I didn't come at the right time. Once October passed, the Arctic Ocean was so cold that I couldn't stretch my arms out.

……

On November 11, our ship was frozen in an unknown sea.There was little food left on board, and we had to find help.

On November 11, there were still no passing ships.

On November 11th, I disembarked.If no food is found, the people on board will starve to death within five days at most.

On November 11th, two juicy and plump seals and long-legged arctic hares temporarily continued our lives.We found a small island with two natural arches formed by glaciers in front of it. Inside the island was a hill with a strange rock on top shaped like a crescent moon.We hoped that the island would be inhabited, so we kept exploring inward.

In the cave, we met the flower.

The legend turned out to be true!

……

There are still some descriptions of the flower shape later, but these things are not important at the moment.The important thing is that the Polar Ice Flower is in the Baiyue Cave.

And there was nothing wrong with their direction of travel.

"Algabe, hold on for a while longer." Finks didn't dare to jump to a conclusion. If the result was still the same after a while, he had to seriously think about whether there were any barriers in it, and this flower made several lines stronger. The Pirates team are all defeated and there is no need to make any more flowers.

Emilia was cooking ginger soup with Blake in the kitchen. The pale yellow ginger juice tasted weird, and the pirates grinned when they drank it.But in this icy and snowy world, after a bowl of warm or even boiling soup, the whole body will warm up quickly.Compared with the kind of cold that even freezes the blood, the ginger soup with a strange taste is simply lovable.

"Okay, let's take these out." Emilia poured all the ginger soup into an iron bucket, and carried the bucket into the bottom cabin with Blake.

The pirates were moved by the smell, and rushed to the barrel with empty bowls.

"I'll make soup for them, and you send two bowls to the machine room."

"it is good."

Carrying two bowls carefully, Emilia knocked on the closed door of the mechanical room.

"Aum, finish your ginger soup."

Aum took one of the bowls, and Emilia handed over the other bowl, "This is Nolan's."

Orm paused, and said with a wry smile, "He's angry now, so he probably won't drink."

"I'll tell. Can I go in?" Emilia asked.

Aum opened the door a little, leaving a passage sideways, "He's in the room on the left."

"Nolan, I'm Amy."

No one in there should answer.

Amy frowned and raised her voice again, "Nolan, I'm Amy! Can you just respond when you hear it?"

It was still silent.

Amy turned her head to look at Aum, but the man's eyes were as dazed and...worried as she was.

"Get the key!"

Aum found the key on the shelf, quickly opened the door and rushed in.The inside was messed up, all the cabinets fell to the ground, and the quilts on the bed were twisted together in a lingering posture.Aum glanced around roughly for a week and saw no one, and felt a chill in his heart.

"Nolan?" Emilia followed and covered her mouth, "Oh my God, he won't run out?"

"Impossible!" Aum's expression was ferocious, and a sense of melancholy came out of nowhere, "How can he run here without even a window?"

bang——

The door was slammed shut.

Just as Emilia turned her head, the man beside her opened the door like a gust of wind and chased him out.

Emilia stood there for a few seconds, she looked behind the door, and finally opened her mouth belatedly.

"Om--"

"Aum, Nolan, he..."

Aum was the only one standing there alone on the deck of Nuo Da. He was holding on to the side of the ship, his hands were bruised.Emilia followed his gaze down, and there was not even a ripple on the white-capped sea.

"he's gone."

Aum stared at the sea obsessively, his eyes could not conceal the loneliness.Emilia didn't know Aum, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that no one but himself really understood the mind of this taciturn boy who shut himself in the room and never showed his face easily.

The only thing he showed was his love for that innocent mermaid.

"Aum, don't be too..." Emilia just wanted to comfort Aum, but the Devilman, which was originally as quiet as a bell, suddenly shook.She slipped and almost fell, but fortunately a pair of strong arms supported her.

"What's going on here?" Emilia was a little panicked.

"Go to the bilge and call them out, and bring your weapons!" Aum stared at the direction of the stern with a serious expression, and Emilia ran in quickly with a beating heart.

Old John was an old man who was already trembling when he walked. He was indeed a veteran of many battles. When the ship shook inexplicably, he grabbed the painted sword next to the pillow with its handle peeled off.

When Emilia rushed into the hold, old John was spit on the lazy pirates lying in bed to keep warm.

"Get out of the way, uh, uh, uh, get up! Something is wrong!" Old John used the accessory as a crutch, and clapped it on the ground.After he finished speaking, the trill in his mouth made a group of pirates laugh.

"John, don't you know about retiring? You are older than my grandpa's father hahahaha, you really should retire!"

"Little bastards, it's not your turn to teach me, get up, something has happened outside!" Old John was so angry that his neck was red, but he still spoke patiently to the group of pirates.The Devilman was his home, and he felt he would not allow it to fall into other hands.

"Come on, there isn't even a ghost in this desolate ice field, so what could happen?"

Emilia rushed in, picked up the kettle next to her, and poured it on the rascally black-haired kid, scalding the kid and screaming.Fortunately, the temperature was low, and the clothes were thick, otherwise he would have to be scalded to a layer of skin.

"Someone is invading, everyone is holding weapons, defend the Devilman!" Emilia was rarely serious. Standing beside Old John, her usually soft face became extremely cold.

The pirates who were still making jokes panicked when they heard Emilia say the same thing. The black-haired kid who was splashed with DJ hot water and was about to "pay back" Emilia showed an incredible expression.

But the situation did not allow them to question, a burst of heavy footsteps from above took everyone's breath away in an instant.

"Okay, Aum!" Emilia snorted and was about to rush up, but was grabbed by the arm by Old John.

"Don't panic, Aum is a smart boy. Hearing the uniform footsteps, it means that they haven't found anyone who makes them nervous. Let's rush out from the stern when the footsteps reach the bow." The old man John was surprisingly calm. He shook the sword in his hand and moved to the stern.Seeing this, other pirates followed suit.

"Captain, why is there no one?" Andrew wandered around the deck in doubt, but didn't notice any ghosts. "No way? Did they dispatch everyone?"

Packet bent his elbow on his stomach, shaking his brown beard and said, "Idiot! It's so cold that it's hard to understand why you will be frozen outside? Go, take a team to the stern to guard, and attack front and back. "

Seeing that Packett had already turned the long-handled hammer, Andrew waved his hand and led the man to a quick trot.Before reaching the place, a mighty shout came from the stern of the ship. Before Andrew could retreat in time, a cold knife had already swayed in front of his eyes.

The cold blade just brushed across the cheek, and a line of red blood spewed out, and it was solidified before it flowed to the chin.

There was not a single cloud in the blue-gray sky, it was about noon, the sun was stingy in releasing its brilliance, and the light snow came and went, as if it would never stop.

Packett heard the sound of swords clashing together, abandoned the blocked and well-disguised front door, and rushed through with the rest of the pirates.

The number of iron hats is about twice that of the ship's guards, and their chances of winning this invasion are very low.Piket led people around from the other side, forming a two-sided attack.

"Hey, calm down, I advise you to catch it quickly. Otherwise..." Packett swung the hammer in his hand a full circle, and the huge hammer seemed like weightless cotton in his hand.

The hammer hit the air, making a "whoosh" sound.

The scene fell into silence for a while.

It was the most senior old John who said, "Arrested without a fight? Pooh! My old John has never conceded defeat. If you want to fight, you can fight. What's the point?"

"You asked for it yourself, don't blame me for not giving you a chance." Packett roared, his voice so loud that it moved the drooping muscles on his face, "you...you can blame this old man if you want to, he broke your neck Live. Andrew—give it to me, and leave no one!"

Andrew wiped the blood from his face, his gray eyes suddenly darkened.With a wave of their hands, the pirates behind them charged forward with their swords raised, their momentum even more fierce than the first confrontation.

"Damn old man, let you talk too much!" The black-haired kid just happened to be standing beside Old John, his face was wrinkled, and half of his clothes were still wet.When the cold wind blew, a layer of frosty ice was borrowed on the face.He had been on the Devilman for less than a year, and he hadn't even had a few official fights, let alone murders.

Although Old John is old and his reaction is not as good as that of young and strong young people, but he has much more experience than them, so he can barely deal with it.Compared to the black-haired brat, he seemed much more at ease.

"Kun! You actually avoided his heart, are you crazy?" Old John fended off the two oncoming swords, feeling slightly glad that he was still "the sword is not old".But in the next second, when he caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye that the little black hair had inserted the point of the sword that had been pierced into the enemy's heart into the enemy's shoulder blade, Old John's eyes almost popped out of his sockets.

Kun, that is, the black-haired brat, also looked demented from being overly frightened at this time.So dangerous, so dangerous, he almost killed him!

"Be careful! Do you want to die?" Old John pulled the dazed Kun out of the cold light, and slapped him on the face, "What are you thinking?!"

"Damn old man, hit me!!" Kun glared at Old John fiercely. He didn't bother with him due to the situation at the scene, but he had already made a note of it in his heart.

"Bam—"

"Boom bang bang-"

In the chaos, several consecutive gunshots sounded like a pause button, and the fighting scene immediately fell silent, and everyone looked at the source of the gunshots.

The muzzle of the brown single-barreled musket was still emitting white smoke. Orm stood on the second deck, looking down at them.

"If you don't want to die, get out of the Devilman!"

The closer they got to Baiyue Mountain, the deeper the snow cover, and the slower and slower the speed of the team.Finks took a deep breath, and when he opened his mouth, his mouth was full of white mist, "We are almost at the foot of the mountain, hold on. The road ahead is completely invisible, and we don't know what is buried under the snow. Let's try our best to stay together." Follow one and be safe."

No one responded to his words, but everyone lined up in a line according to his words.

The snow covered his calves, and Finks moved awkwardly in the snow with a cane made of dead wood.

so cold!His legs that were not in the snow were sore from the cold.

Fortunately, Nuo Lan was left on the boat, otherwise he might be frozen out before he could get here.

Thinking of Nolan, Funks' almost discouraged heart was rekindled with hope.This trip, because of Nolan, he has a little more determination.Otherwise, he might not be able to make such a decision.

As a problem left over from history, the economic situation of the Devilman should also be resolved.Moreover, Nuo Lan is still a mermaid prince, he doesn't want to see a few unknown bruises on his body after waking up from the bed.

He heard that the nobles would put more than a dozen layers of soft duck down blankets on their beds. This kind of duck down blanket is made from the softest feathers of ducklings. It is very light and soft, and it is very warm in winter.The only downside is that it is expensive.

Finks is in dire need of money right now.
