A common tavern that connects all fantasy worlds

In the middle of the iceberg, there is a gap several tens of feet high and more than ten feet wide, which can be used by the Interceptor to enter.

When passing through the darkness under the iceberg, Luo Sanpao couldn't help feeling a strange feeling... It was like the time when he came to this world from the tavern, he couldn't see clearly, he didn't even feel a breeze Arrived, just stepped into another world.

The waves beneath the hull seemed to subside suddenly.

The sense of déjà vu that Luo Sanpao felt was even stronger. The sky over this water area turned out to be a dark night sky, plus stars; the sea surface was as calm as a mirror, just like the water area outside the tavern terrace.

Surrounded by only the sea surface reflecting the starlight overhead, for some reason, the Interceptor was still moving forward in this windless and waveless environment.

Turner and Elizabeth led the sailors to light up the oil lamps, and looked up at the seemingly endless darkness around them.Silence will always bring people a sense of loneliness, and the boundary between life and death has begun to become less clear in this atmosphere. Everyone loses the interest in talking for a while, and just does their own work in silence.

It is impossible to judge the direction of the wind, because no one feels the wind.

But since the speed of the boat has not decreased, there should be no need to adjust the sail... The pulley block on the top of the sail is still creaking, which is the proof that the entire sail is under stress.

After sailing like this for several hours, everyone went to the lower cabin to sleep tiredly, leaving only a few sailors on the deck.

Elizabeth, who could not sleep, leaned against the side of the bow of the ship, looking forward in confusion.

Will Jack really be found at the end of this darkness?What should I tell him then?

"Sorry, I killed you, but I did it for my dad's safety..."

Such lines, even she herself thought it was nonsense, could not alleviate her guilt and guilt at all.

There was deliberately heavy footsteps coming from behind, it was Turner... he was the only person on this boat who could be so gentle, and no one else would care about her feelings.

"...I think we need to talk."

Turner said.

Elizabeth brushed the blond hair hanging down her ears, turned her head and frowned sadly and said, "Can't we wait until we rescue Jack, William?"

"...After witnessing Norrington's heroic death, I really feel that it is too stupid to be entangled in these small things in my limited life."

As Turner said, he came over and leaned against the side of the ship, grabbing the arm of Elizabeth who was about to leave.

"I betrayed Jack, and even all the pirates...but it wasn't all for your father, Governor Swann. You know, I have pirate blood in me, my father, the 'shoelace' who died at sea Bill Turner, who is currently on the crew of the Flying Dutchman.

"Because they're no longer taking responsibility, he's become a half-human, half-sea monster about to be swallowed by that ship. Last time I saw him, he even forgot who I was...

"I don't want him to go through that pain again."

Having said that, Turner bowed his head towards Elizabeth.

Elizabeth didn't say anything, of course she could understand Turner's choice, because she also decided to lock Jack on the Black Pearl out of the same mood... But the feeling of being cheated still affected her emotions, making She immediately wanted to break free from Turner's hand.

At this time, of course the other party would not let her go, only to hear the little blacksmith say again: "Yes, that's the mood... When I heard that Jack was killed by you, my mood was similar to yours now. But that's just subconsciously avoiding my own despicability, criticizing others' mistakes from a moral level, and making myself feel less bad.

"If you think about it, didn't we both make the same choice? What's the difference in how bad those two things were?

"That just shows that none of us are perfect. I've made a lot of mistakes, and so have you...Since the two of us have decided to be together, we should accept it and face any problems together. "

Distraught, Elizabeth just stretched out her hand and pulled Turner's hand away from her own arm. She said "I need more time" with her eyes fluttering, and quickly ran back to the cabin.

When Turner turned his head to look at her back, he unexpectedly found a voluptuous figure in the shadows slowly walking out with the hem of her skirt in his hands.

Tia Doma walked all the way with a mysterious smile on her face, still sighing in her mouth:

"Ah... love. The most beautiful and passionate thing in the world...but so elusive."

"...It's not good to eavesdrop on other people's conversations." Turner curled his lips and said so.

"This ship isn't too big, and it's so quiet around here...you can hear it even if you're not eavesdropping nearby." Tia Doma walked slowly, touched Turner's handsome side face, and smiled. He licked his lips, and moaned softly from the depths of his throat: "...you are such a great guy, but you haven't understood the most basic principles of life."

"What's the point?"

Turner heard that her words were wrong, and hurriedly asked.

The witch stepped onto the bow of the boat, and seemed to cast her eyes on the sea horizon that was completely invisible in the darkness, and said calmly: "If you want to get what you want most, you have to pay the price you least want to pay."

There was a sudden "creak" sound from the planks of the hull, and the hair around Turner's face was blown up.

He hurriedly looked up, and in the faint light of the oil lamp, he saw that the sails hanging on the mast had been blown up by the sudden strong wind, and the flag on the top of the mast was fluttering towards the bow of the ship.

Barbossa's loud voice came up from the lower cabin: "Get up, old sea dogs, if you don't want to die, go up to the deck and tie everything up! Hurry up, remember to tie yourself up too, Ha ha ha ha!"

Not long after, the captain was seen walking onto the deck, running to the stern with a cane and holding the rudder.

At this time, the sea was no longer so calm, and the turbulent wind and waves appeared from nowhere at this moment, and suddenly began to violently shake the Interceptor, which was moving forward at full speed, making Turner almost lose his footing, He fell into the sea, but luckily Luo Sanpao, who also rushed onto the deck at this time, pulled him back.

"What's going on! What's happening!" he could only yell, but was wetted by a wave splashing on the deck.

Barbossa in the stern laughed and shouted: "You remember that saying? 'Crossing the edge' - it's not that easy to do. If I die here, remember to ask Tia Doma to fish me out Come back!"

Turner wanted to say something, but Luo Sanpao slammed him on the deck, and tied him firmly with a cable from the mast.After such a long time, he still couldn't deal with this Chinese man, and once again remembered the humiliation of being beaten violently on the same boat, and couldn't help but struggle again and again.

"Bah, little bastard doesn't know what's good!"

Luo Sanpao scolded, he already knew what happened here... The water surface is falling, and the undercurrent coming from behind is accelerating. If it is on the river surface, there must be a cliff with a big drop ahead, cutting off the water flow and forming a waterfall .

But now in the sea, he never thought that such a situation could happen in the sea.After thinking about it again, he has seen such a big octopus, and now he has to go to the Nine Springs to fish for people... There are more strange things in this world, and he can only fully accept them.

"Didn't you hear that foreigner shout, tie yourself up, if there is no place to tie it up, go back to the cabin!"

Seeing his brother still running around all over the deck, he cursed a few more words, and then hurried to the stern.

It was his boat, and he didn't want to just sit on deck and watch it crash into the waterfall!

Barbossa stepped down from the helm, grabbed a cable, and hummed a song with a smile:

"The king and his men took the queen from her bed...

"They bound her with her blood and bones...

"In the name of power, the sea belongs to us...

"We do whatever we want, we drift around...

"Ahahahaha!"

With a jerk, the Interceptor rushed out of a snowy wave and plummeted toward the sudden abyss below.

The thousand-foot-wide waterfall couldn't be seen to the bottom at all, and the people on the whole boat couldn't help but let out a scream, but it was quickly covered up by the sound of the sea water pouring down, and disappeared below with the Interceptor.

Chapter 40 Cruises

"How are you, Laila? Still alive?"

Sitting in the cockpit of the speedboat shaken by the wind and waves, Finnegan even had the leisure to joke with Lyra who was tying the cables outside the window.

"What the hell do you think? Falk squid, why don't you come out to do my work in such heavy rain?" Laila gave him the middle finger from the window angrily.

Sure enough, just like his worst prediction, the rain in the open sea was simply violent.Fortunately, although the rain was heavy, there was not much wind and waves, and his speedboat was fully able to support it.

Jack was sitting on the side, listening to the conversations coming from the "radio" in his ears, while pretending to move his fingers on the operation panels of various electronic devices.

He really didn't dare to satisfy his curiosity at this moment. Finnegan had warned him that if a switch on these things was not touched correctly, the ship would easily be destroyed.

At the same time, he really admires the big hearts of Finnegan and his crew... Sailing in such sea conditions, knowing that there are a group of fully armed desperadoes in his ship, he is still busy with work as usual , Still teasing each other.I don't know where Finnegan recruited such an outstanding subordinate, maybe he has some knack for judging people.

Joey, who is working on the electronic equipment in the lower cabin, is smart, careful, and has strong hands-on ability. He is good at all kinds of equipment and tools, and he is the best helper in operating this "modern speedboat";

The woman outside the window is also nimble, quick-tempered, and versatile. She can even quickly complete tasks that should usually be done by men, such as tying cables in heavy rain. She looks like she has many years of experience at sea.

It wasn't long before Lyra, drenched to the ground, crawled in through the hatch and threw her wet coat directly into Finnegan's face.It happened that the employer, Hannover, also came here from the lower cabin. Seeing this situation, he turned his head and asked, "How long will it take us to arrive?"

"Soon, as long as my goddamn radar is working."

Finnegan didn't look at him either, just replied calmly, and reached out to mark the position on the GPS chart.After the other party went out to sea, he gave him an accurate latitude and longitude, and now his ship is rapidly approaching there.

"Yes, Finnegan, I like your attitude better now. It seems we can go down and prepare?"

Hanover said that after getting a positive reply from Finnegan, he went back down to the lower cabin.

At this moment, Finnegan glanced back at his back, and whispered on the radio: "Joy...you happen to be in the cargo hold now, if you can, go and see what these people are loading on our ship. Jack , can you attract their attention?"

Jack Sparrow stood up, patted his pants, took off the radio and put it on the operating panel, showing a joking smile: "Leave it to me..."

After speaking, he wobbled towards the lower floor, humming pirate tunes, with a sleepy look on his face.

The group of soldiers in the cabin was sorting out their equipment, ready to rush out to carry out the mission when they arrived at their destination.As soon as Jack walked to the door, he heard the people inside discussing the female mechanic Laila in a dirty manner. The obscenity and obscenity of the words made even a "pirate" feel ashamed.

He slammed into the side of the ship, and sure enough, he heard the cabin quiet down, and two menacing men walked towards him, staring at him without making a sound.

Only then did he pretend that he just got up from the ground and couldn't grasp his balance, and continued to walk crookedly—No matter how violent the waves are, Jack Sparrow always walks on the boat as if walking on the ground. Not falling over on deck or in the cabin, the clumsy gesture is of course camouflaged.

"Want to help?" Hanover also appeared at the door, staring at Jack closely, and asked loudly.

"No, no, no, I just tripped over it..."

Jack skillfully showed a somewhat nervous expression, which made Hannover on the opposite side make up a lot of things in his brain.

The employer was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes and said, "Never mind those lads...they're always a little over excited before they act."

Jack also followed his topic: "...ah, it's okay, I didn't hear anything..."

For an ordinary person in an ordinary situation, after hearing this sentence, he may not go any further; but Hanover is going to perform a mission that needs to be kept secret at this time, and the nervousness and evasion that Jack deliberately pretended to be would make him feel uneasy.

Will this guy tell Finnegan and the others what he heard, causing the whole thing to change?

It's just that at this time he obviously can't do it directly.

It's not difficult to deal with this person quietly, but Finnegan will definitely find out later.The team also needs him to sail the boat to bring everyone back after the mission is completed. It would be a lot of fun if they fell out with him at this time and a group of people were thrown at sea.In addition, no one is sure whether the ship can operate normally without a crew member...

Many solutions flashed through his mind, and finally he thought of Jack's nervous expression, and decided to threaten directly.

The expression on Hanover's face suddenly changed, and he took a step towards the door of the cabin, just in time to squeeze Jack onto the bulkhead on the other side, and said in a low voice: "You know the reason why I can live until now I don't mind my own business... Finnegan understands this, so he will never ask what he shouldn't know, I suggest you also shut up and work hard."

After saying this, the fierce-looking soldiers in the cabin also stood up and walked towards this side, with heavy weapons in their hands, and let out a malicious smile.

Jack stammered, "Yes, yes, that's exactly what I was going to do. Sorry."

After finishing speaking, he stood still with "soft hands and feet", slowly walked back while supporting the wall beside him, and disappeared from the sight of these mercenaries after a while.

After so long, Joey should be done, right?

When he got back to the cockpit, he saw a panicked Joey talking to Finnegan, and his girlfriend Laila hugging his shoulders to comfort him.

He whispered: "...the box contains large-caliber torpedoes and simple launchers! There are nine of them in total, and they can all be used to blow up aircraft carriers."

With a hiss, Finnegan stroked his hair with a serious expression on his face.

Now he only hopes that these bastards are not really going to mess with some country's military unit... At that time, they pat their butts and leave, but their own ship will be identified and found, and they will face fierce revenge.

"Listen well, these people are definitely not ordinary mercenaries, and what they are going to do now will not be an ordinary job. We have to be vigilant and don't disobey their orders for the time being. We will arrive at our destination soon. When the time comes We'll see." Finnegan whispered to his crew, "Joy, Laila, you two will find a way to go from head to bottom, and say that the equipment is malfunctioning and needs to be repaired, don't come out...Jack, What can you do?"

Jack Sparrow approached and asked in a low voice, "First of all... what is a torpedo?"

While the crew of the speedboat were still muttering in the cockpit, the mercenaries were also ready.

They put on body armor, light machine guns in their hands, stood up in the cabin, and reported one by one.

Hannover is doing the final pre-war mobilization: "We are about to reach the scheduled location, don't I need to say more? This business is done, beach vacations, beautiful cars, beautiful women, whatever you want. This business is lost , you just jump into the sea by yourself... You can't even deal with a cruise ship with only simple defense forces, what kind of mercenaries are you doing?

"Billy, you stay on the boat, activate the torpedo launchers, set your target. Remember to keep an eye on the people on this boat. Everyone else is with me..."

Just in the middle of the conversation, the speedboat suddenly shook violently, the mercenaries almost lost their balance, and some unlucky seasick fell into his own vomit.

"what happened?"

Hanover leaned on the cabin door and asked to himself.

After a while, the lights on the ship flickered suddenly, and Finnegan's voice sounded from the radio: "Hannover! Can you come up for a while, we have a little problem."

[74. No. 74]

Hannover signaled the subordinates behind him not to act rashly, then walked up the stairs with a gun in hand, and came to the cockpit.

"What went wrong?"

Seeing that Finnegan was flipping various incomprehensible switches in a hurry, and the navigation system was completely dark, he asked.

Finnegan replied, "The propellers are hinged to the point of something, the engine overheated and stalled, and needs to be repaired immediately."

"So where are we now?" Hanover asked again.

"It should be arriving at the destination soon... There is no other way, the boat can't move, so we can only anchor first, and we can talk about it later."

Finnegan still wanted to delay time, but was held down by Hanover, who looked up through the porthole, and patted him on the shoulder.

Hanover raised the muzzle of the gun on one side and pointed out the window: "No...we've arrived."

The rain curtain outside the window was blown away by the wind at this time, and a huge monster suddenly appeared on the sea not far away.

It was a giant cruise ship more than 1000 feet long and [-] feet high, with seven or eight floors of space from the deck to the top, with a streamlined design throughout, and brilliant lights from the windows facing this side.
