Chapter 290: Heading to the Eye of the Death God!
Charles was about to rush out, but he was immediately entangled by two chains and fell to the ground!
Crash!
Zhou Li swung the chain in his hand next to him, "Haven’t you heard a saying, we are all on the same boat now, if you want to get off, hehe."
Charles looked at the three of them in despair, "You three are crazy, you are definitely crazy, you have no idea how terrifying the Eye of the Death God is!"
"Let me get off the boat, I would rather feed the fish on the way back to shore than go to the Eye of the Death God with you!"
Ye Qiu slowly sat on the chair in the captain’s room, "Since he wants to feed the fish so much, Jiang Chen, throw him overboard."
Jiang Chen grabbed Charles and tried to leave when he heard that, which scared Charles. "Wait, wait, my friend, old Charles was just joking!"
Ye Qiu smiled, he had already guessed.
"Put it down."
With that, Jiang Chen directly threw Charles back.
Ye Qiu took out an orange from his backpack and peeled it. "Don’t worry, friend, we are just joking too."
"I know what the Eye of the Death God represents, and I understand the frightening part, so please believe me."
"We are not tired of living, but we have a way to get in there."
Ye Qiu placed the peeled orange in front of Charles, and then silently took out the Death Certificate.
Looking at the skull imprint in front of him, Charles’s pupils shrank. "The… Death Certificate?!"
"Where did you get this thing?!"
Ye Qiu quietly put away the Death Certificate, then pointed at the orange in front of him.
Charles understood, quickly stuffed the orange into his mouth and swallowed it.
"Phew…"
"I promise to show you the way, but I want to know where your Death Certificate came from. This thing has disappeared for over ten thousand years."
Ye Qiu chuckled, "Have you lived for over ten thousand years?"
Charles shook his head.
"Then how do you know this thing has been missing for over ten thousand years?" asked Ye Qiu.
Charles sighed, "Alright, friend, I shouldn’t ask too much. So, are you here for the legendary Land of Gold?"
Zhou Li was puzzled for a moment, "What is the Land of Gold?"
Charles looked at Zhou Li with some confusion, "Don’t you know? Legend has it that a great pirate hid all his wealth collected throughout his life in the center of The Eye of the Death God Sea Area."
"This legend has been passed down since ancient times, and we call it the distant Land of Gold. Countless desperate adventurers have set off to search for treasures in The Eye of the Death God Sea Area."
"But no one has ever come out alive from the Eye of the Death God. As far as I know, no one who entered the Eye of the Death God sea area has ever returned."
"I too was once tempted to go there and try my luck, but on the way there, I came to my senses."
"I angrily slapped myself and said, ‘Charles, you reckless fool, do you want to throw your life away?’"
"After that, I never went to The Eye of the Death God Sea Area again."
"But stories about the Death God’s sea area kept increasing around me, with people talking about what was happening there."
"They say the Land of Gold is covered in gold everywhere, with enough money there to last a whole city of people for ten lifetimes without spending it all!"
"And you can find the legendary Holy Relic stolen by this captain, the Heart of the Ocean!"
"Whenever I hear those words, I can’t help but want to visit the Eye of the Death God again every time I drink alone!"
"But each time I wake up, I gradually realize that if I stay here, one day I won’t be able to suppress my greed anymore!"
"So, that’s why I left the Death Triangle Sea area…"
"That cursed atmosphere always makes me think that I can get rich overnight."
"But I know it’s all an illusion, a trap set by the Golden Demon to lure people into the abyss!"
Little did Ye Qiu know that Charles had quite a fascinating story. Ye Qiu from the past had never met him, only heard his name from others.
"I can tell from your expression, have you encountered the Death Certificate before?" Ye Qiu asked sharply.
Charles nodded, "Of course I have, that cursed thing nearly took my life!"
"Back then, I was a clueless sailor. Oh well, let’s keep it short."
"My friend and I discovered an island at sea, only to find out it was actually a giant whale. Can you believe it? That thing was huge!"
"We got swallowed by the whale, and inside its belly, we found countless human bones, including this thing we found!"
"We called it the Death Certificate, but I didn’t know what it was for back then."
"After we escaped from the whale’s belly, I proudly wore this thing like a medal on my chest!"
"Then, I caught the attention of Captain Hops with a big beard, he almost chopped my leg off to use for carving!"
"Captain Hops snatched my medal away. It was only then that I understood its purpose."
"It was a necessary requirement to enter the Sea Area of the Death God’s Eye. I regretted it so much at that time!"
"If I hadn’t worn it on my chest back then, but instead hid it, would I be living a super wealthy life on my private island with my fleet now?"
"Okay, okay, that’s just my personal grumbling."
"Actually, I often console myself, saying even if I got the money, maybe I wouldn’t have the chance to enjoy it, right?"
"Hehe, who knows."
"It is said that the Eye of the Death God Sea Area is the eye of the Death God. Anyone caught by the Death God’s gaze will die sooner or later."
"And the Death Certificate is the permit granted by the Death God that allows you to enter it. The legendary pirate entered the Eye of the Death God using this document."
Ye Qiu nodded, having understood all that needed to be understood.
"Don’t worry, we are all on the same boat. If anyone has to die, we will die together. I don’t joke about my life."
"So relax, if we truly find the so-called Land of Gold, you can take as much money as you want."
Charles laughed, "Thank you, friend, you have been a friend to old Charles for a lifetime!"
Ye Qiu also smiled, "Me too, friend."
。。。
Half a month later.
On the vast sea, Jiang Chen leaned on the railing, frowning as he listened to the constant banging sounds coming from beneath the sea.
A sailor approached at this moment, "Don’t worry, just some water ghosts, they will swim away in a while."
Jiang Chen turned to the sailor, "Where do these water ghosts come from?"
The sailor chuckled, "How else could they come? When people die at sea, they turn into water ghosts, all the work of the Sea Mother."
"Huh?"
"What is that?"
