I'm a trainee crew on a pirate ship [West Fantasy]

In the pit, a knight wrapped in ice crystals was lying on the scorched ground melted by fire. He stared at the pale brown eyes in astonishment, as if he still couldn't figure out what happened to him just now.

That layer of crystal clear ice crystals, even lying on the hot soil, the frost has no sign of melting.

One blow freezes the enemy, which shows that Luo Zhi's "Beastmaster" is much stronger than this knight.

Sig looked down at the bottom of the pit six to seven meters deep, and said in a low voice: "His magic has high-level power, but he hasn't really advanced to a high-level yet. Is this some kind of improvement obtained by body transformation?"

Luo Zhi looked at Sig: "Captain, what should we do now?"

This person is not dead yet, another prisoner, the other party is afraid that he will not say anything.

Sig was about to speak, when an illusory and pale figure appeared on the other side of the pit, and Alf came.

"Another knight. There are 15 knights in this knight group. I don't know how many have appeared." Alf glanced at the people at the bottom of the pit, and then floated towards Luo Zhi and the two.

It was only then that Luo Zhi thought about the problem of the Knights itself, and said in confusion: "Yes, there are so many of them, if a group appears to besiege us, it will definitely threaten us, why choose to appear one by one, so that the forces are dispersed, they have no chance of winning, They're not stupid."

"When you find out about this castle, you'll understand." Seeger said to the people around him, and then turned to the man-made necromancer, "Have you found something valuable?"

Alfred replied in a faint voice: "Yes, I'll take you there. It's a basement with defenses. I can't get in."

The two pirates followed Alf to another building, which was a warehouse house, which contained long-term preservation ingredients such as flour, as well as tableware, tables and chairs and other items.

The basement is just under the warehouse house.

"Alf, how is Mr. Merlin doing now, have you found that house?" Seager asked.

He has already told Alfred the house of human faces that the "Prophet" has divined, and Mr. Merlin must be looking for that house.

"Not yet. If Mr. Merlin finds it, I will know." Alfred regretfully replied.

He is Mr. Merlin's messenger, equivalent to Mr. Merlin's eyes, and Mr. Merlin can send messages through him at any time.

When Sig arrived at Zijin Mountain, Alf appeared and found Luo Zhi. At that time, Mr. Merlin knew the existence of Luo Zhi, a half-elf. Immediately, Mr. Merlin ordered Alf and asked Sig to go to Nome City.

Mr. Merlin believed that Seeger and Luo Zhi could bring him surprises, and sure enough, they did not disappoint him.

Luo Zhi and others came to the basement and stood in front of a door that was the same as the door of the room above. Luo Zhi looked at Sig, and he listened to the boss what to do next.

Sig looked at the basement of the door, there was dust everywhere, and he said: "No one has been here for a long time, and opening it forcibly may damage the items inside."

Luo Zhi put his hands on his chest, tilted his head, and looked embarrassed, he couldn't just smash it, so what should we do?

Sig glanced at Alver: "The defense can be destroyed slowly, it will take time."

Sig took out the small golden goblet.

As soon as Alf saw the wine glass, he immediately backed away from Sig, his illusory pale figure became paler, and he said in an unusually leisurely voice: "I'll go up and wait for you, and I'll come back when the door opens."

As soon as the voice disappeared, Alf's figure disappeared.

Seeger chanted a spell and poured spiritual power into the wine glass. Clear sunlight poured out of the glass, illuminating every corner of the underground passage, and the cold space suddenly became warm.

Soon, the warmth turned into blazing heat, and the power of light was fully displayed, clearing away the filth, Luo Zhi felt a burning sensation rushing towards his face, and hurriedly raised his robe to cover his eyes.

The light rushed towards the door like a tide, trying to get in through the crack of the door, but stopped, blocked by invisible things, and completely blocked the door.

Gradually, various incantation symbols appeared on the door, phantoms emerged, and a colorful barrier appeared shaking.

color……

Looking at the calm-faced captain, Luo Zhi recalled the information about Nome City and Samuel Sterling, and guessed, he said, "The defense here is often colored. This magic is applied to the Rainbow Stone? Nome City The rainbow stone appeared in the territory, and Samuel Sterling's magic is related to Pandora's stone?"

After a pause, Luo Zhi added: "The castle of Sterling was built after conquering this mountain range, and the multi-colored gemstones were also excavated from this mountain range. Sterling is an earth elementalist, and he is familiar with the leylines. It is easy to find rare minerals, he invaded this land to obtain rare minerals, whether it is for wealth or promotion, it is beneficial to him."

Sig's eyes that reflected the golden light and colored defenses also reflected brilliant light, looking mysterious and beautiful. He nodded, agreed with this statement, and said in a low voice: "Well, but, I believe that he laid down this land During the period, or later, when he wanted to use the resources here, it didn't go so smoothly. He was able to find such a good place, and others could detect it more or less, including many black wizards..."

"Rainbow Stone must have a high value, so it is called the 'Pandora's Stone'. Over the years, many people have heard of it and come here to seek gold..."

Seeger suddenly thought of something, frowned slightly, and without waiting for his own crew to ask, he chuckled lightly, showing a heartless smile: "There may already be hunters waiting for their prey outside the castle, and we will meet them when we go out of the castle." Robbers, or, at this moment, someone else has entered the castle."

Pirates meet robbers, interesting.

Luo Zhi understood what the captain meant, he smiled and said, "Perhaps Mr. Merlin had expected it a long time ago. Isn't there Mr. Merlin's 'guard' outside?"

The castle is brightly lit, and a certain basement is brightly lit, hot as a beach by the sea, and the outside of the castle is dark and cold.

Four huge and towering trees stood around the castle, blocking the overflowing light in the castle. Countless vines hung from the tall branches, and there were several human-like "chrysalis" hanging from the vines.

The person who was hoisted at some point was either straight or upside down, swaying in the air with layers of vines entwined, adding a touch of weirdness to the quiet and gloomy atmosphere.

Outside the basement, Luo Zhi took out his pocket watch and looked at it: "It's [-]:[-] in the evening, almost half an hour."

Luo Zhi and Sig arrived at the castle around [-]:[-] in the evening. It didn't take much time to break the barrier of the castle. After entering the castle, they searched and spent some time solving the obstacles they encountered. The most time-consuming thing was breaking the defense of this secret room.

It took almost half an hour to destroy the defense with "Brightness". If it wasn't for the fear that the violent construction would affect them and destroy the information that might exist in the room, they would not have been willing to take the time.

Sig asked Luo Zhi to go out to search, and he waited here alone for the defense to be broken, but Luo Zhi was worried that the captain would have an accident, so the two had been waiting here.

During this period, Luo Zhi proposed to use the "bright" item by himself, worried that the captain's mental power would be consumed too much, and the captain rejected it displeased.

That's right, displeased, Luo Zhi felt that the captain was displeased with him treating him as a patient.

"Okay." Seeger watched the symbols on the door disappear, and the colored barrier also disappeared, so he put away the magic item.

Luo Zhi was about to ask whether he should call Alf, when the illusory pale figure appeared in his eyes.

Luo Zhi couldn't help but tease: "Alfred, you came just in time."

Alf's figure fluttered, glanced at Luo Zhi, ignored his teasing, and said quietly: "It's really uncomfortable here."

Seeger asked Alfred: "Mr. Merlin also found other valuable places?"

Mr. Merlin has been in the castle for so long, it is impossible for him to gain nothing.

Alf chuckled: "Yes, he found the laboratory, the place where the knights were fused, and the altar."

Luo Zhi's face changed, and his heart trembled. These words were too terrifying.

Sig didn't ask much, he looked at the door, didn't ask Alfred to go in and spy first, he resolutely held the doorknob, and turned it.

With the sound of clicking, Luo Zhi was ready to defend at any time.

Seeger was on the side, holding an oil lamp in his left hand, and gently pushed open the door with his right hand. The door slowly receded, revealing the dark background of the room.

Alf said with a misty voice: "There is no evil thing."

Sig walked in first, and Luo Zhi followed closely.

Under the light of the fire, the indoor scenery clearly blended into the eyes of the visitors, and Luo Zhi could not help but take a step closer to his captain.

I saw a corpse sitting slumped in the corner of the wall on the left side of the room.

Luo Zhi turned his head and stared at Alf, is there no evil thing?

Alf's illusory figure swayed and floated in front of the corpse, aggrievedly defending himself: "Having a corpse does not mean evil, there are no evil spirits here, his level should not be high, he will not keep his spirit here, this room There is no special magic circle, the defense is to prevent people from entering at will, that's it..."

"So, when he dies, he dies. There is no evil breath left behind. I just don't know if he sealed the room himself or someone else did it."

What makes people curious and puzzled is that the clothes on this corpse are knight clothes.

How did Sterling’s knight die here, apparently no one found out here.

Died in captivity?

Luo Zhi looked at the basement, it was an ordinary room, there was a small table in the room, there were cutlery on the table, rotten bread on the dusty plate, a bottle of wine and a wine glass.

There is a pile of rotten things pushed in the right corner, and there are a few green plants in the corner, which look like sweet potato seedlings and mushrooms of various colors.

Plants cannot live because of lack of sunlight, but they still reproduce tenaciously.

This is the original food cellar, but it has been changed to a prison room.

Alf approached the corpse and made his judgment: "He died of poisoning, he should have committed suicide, and he didn't show any signs of struggle."

Seeger stepped forward, searched the knight's clothes expressionlessly, and found a booklet from it.

Luo Zhi stepped forward curiously, watching the captain turn over the book, and there was a text on it that Luo Zhi could not understand at first, but could only understand because of the "General Knowledge Charm":

I'm dying, I'm out of control, I don't want to turn into a monster, before I can't control it, I decide to kill myself, I want to die without pain and without ugliness.

Goodbye, Mary, my beautiful wife of just three years.

And little Henry, my darling, Lord!How I miss you all!

May the Lord of the Sky bless you!

Please forgive me for not being able to see you all for the last time. I have submitted countless applications but have been rejected. Forgive me for being powerless.

I know that I can't leave this castle for the rest of my life, and I won't be able to leave after death. Maybe my soul is imprisoned here.

I believe that the lord will treat my family well, give them a reasonable reason for my death, and give them a lot of gold coins, enough for them to live without worry for a lifetime.

After all, everyone knows that our lord is very rich.

However, I still regret it, regret joining the knight order, regret entering this castle, how excited I was when I joined, and how regretful I am now.

Even, I resent the lord, resent my former belief, the sacred tree.

Since entering this castle, the duty of protecting the lord personally has changed to patrolling the security of the castle all day. The boring and comfortable days made me think that everything is so beautiful.

One day, Lydia, who had spent countless beautiful nights with me in the castle, told me that her friend Marle was missing, and asked me to help find it, but the housekeeper didn't pay attention at all.

I asked the steward about it, and the steward mentioned it to the knights, but the knights didn't look for it seriously, because our main duty is not to find servants.

So, until Lydia told me, I didn't know about it at all.

When I was free, I went to find the missing servants. After some investigation, I found that not only Marlene, but for a long time, some servants disappeared one by one for no apparent reason, and Marlene was the fifth.

When I wanted to mention this to the group leader, a mutated out-of-control man appeared in the castle, and we were responsible for eliminating him. Only then did I know that this poor man was the missing servant.

Surprised, I tried to investigate why the servant was out of control.

Soon, the lord summoned me and said that I had done good deeds and wanted to reward me and help me get promoted.

The lord was a little strange, he seemed to have forgotten my name, and confused my achievements. Although I was puzzled, I was very happy.

The lord took out two stones of different colors, green and red. After he crushed the colored stones, he mixed them into potions and asked me to take them.

I'm at the fifth level, and I already have the potion formula to advance to the sixth level. The only thing missing is the ingredients. This is not the potion for my promotion.

I hesitated and wanted to refuse, but greedy for promotion and not daring to disobey orders, I drank.

There is a powerful force coming up, and I don't know why, but I feel scared.

After drinking the potion given by the lord, I have mental problems, I have signs of loss of control, my face becomes as ugly as an animal, and I feel very painful.

I struggled through the first time I lost control, and I became more and more afraid. I knew that there was something wrong with the medicine given by the lord.

The lord told me to pray to the sacred tree, and I did.

The lord captured a servant with magic, put it on the altar and dedicated it to the sacred tree, and the sacred tree gave the lord two glowing stones of different colors.

It was only then that I realized that the sacred tree that I had always believed in as benevolent was actually an evil god.The lord said that this is the power bestowed by the gods. The servant is too weak, and only a strong knight can bear it. He told me to be grateful for the gift from the gods.

Only then did I know that those servants had suffered the same as mine.

I resisted it, I was afraid, but I had to act like I wasn't afraid.

I told my friend Geer about my experience, and he told me that we are the lord's knights, the lord's sword, and the lord's spear. The lord needs us, which is different from those servants.

But I decided to change my faith, because I have the element of thunder, and I secretly chanted the name of "Lord of the Sky".

Perhaps it was to punish me for my disrespect to the lord and the sacred tree. My out-of-control symptoms became more and more serious. Therefore, the leader locked me in the basement, and I have no objection.

I wanted to see my family. The head of the group helped me apply, but the lord refused. He said he could give my family a lot of gold coins, but I couldn't leave the castle. He also told me that he could find me a witch doctor to treat me.

A few days later, I met a witch doctor named Langman.

He took out my blood and injected green medicine into my blood vessels. He said, as long as I persist, I will not be afraid of illness or death in the future, and I will be the most powerful warrior.

I feel very gentle in my body, but I am very scared.

Because, I clearly understand that blood is not green.

One day later, not only my face, but also my body mutated, with green sticky arms growing out, which were ugly, disgusting, and painful.

I know, I can never recover.

I begged Gale to help me, he is my good friend, I said I don't want to be a monster, I want to die a whole knight, please help him to bury me, don't let anyone desecrate my body, no matter what method he uses cover up.

Aware of the abnormality in the castle, he agreed to me, and said that he would help me see my family if he had the opportunity.

I went into the basement, and Geer helped me seal the room. He put a lot of raw sweet potatoes, bread, and wine in the room. Unfortunately, I was not in the mood to drink.

After making this decision, I actually relaxed a lot. I calmly wrote my suicide note and chanted the name of the Lord of the Sky for the last time, hoping to obtain the salvation of the gods.

The room was as quiet as my breathing and heartbeat, and after a few minutes, I calmly fed myself the poison.

May the Lord of the Sky bless you!May I enter the kingdom of the Lord after my death!
