Son of the Olden Days

"Captain, it's in front, can you see it?" Jerabi kept changing his angle to ensure his direction.

"Yes." As soon as Sol and the others walked out of the woods on the island, they saw a large ship that had dropped anchor by the beach not far away.

The tall and wide ship shadow was hibernating quietly in the moonlight, and I didn't know if it was waiting for someone or just going to the island to fetch fresh water. There are faintly flickering lights on the entire ship, which makes the outline of the hull more three-dimensional and eye-catching in the moonlight, undulating in the waves.

"Captain..." As the distance approached, Jelabi and everyone seemed to want to say something, but they were somewhat unable to speak.

After all, Gerabi had already pointed out when he was still in the mountain hut, the whole ship was a ghost body. Everyone knew nothing about where it came from, its sudden appearance, and its purpose of staying here, but everyone knew that this might not be a goodwill.

"Let’s get in touch first, we always have to know something before we can make a judgment. But you can rest assured for the time being, since Gerabi and we can see it, at least it means that this ship is not a creature but a ghost." Saul whispered. Everyone is calm.

As the distance got closer, everyone saw more clearly. The long pedals for boarding have already been put down on the tall hull, and there is a figure beside the pedals, pacing leisurely back and forth on the beach. Judging from his clothes, he seems to be an... old captain?

"The guests are finally back, and the ship can set sail at any time." The old captain seemed to be less than fifty years old, wearing a refined sailing suit with introverted colors, and gave a warm hat-off to everyone, revealing Slightly bald forehead.

The standard Chinese Lunar calendar language and standard pronunciation made everyone suddenly feel the illusion of returning to reality. The content of the invitation in his words seemed like everyone was walking together, but Sol and others went to the island for sightseeing, and he was waiting here specially.

"Then bother, Captain, I don't know where is our destination for this voyage?" Although he knew that the other party might not answer, Sol still asked. It is always good to be able to talk, and only by communicating as much as possible can we find illogical flaws.

"Destination? The guests are not going to go home?" The old captain smiled kindly and stepped on the pedal first.

Everyone in the squad turned their heads to look at Sol, and Sol lightly shook his chin to signal Gerabi to follow. After all, they have reached this point. I can’t go back to the island anymore. The tombstone woman may be dead now. Should I go back and spend my life with the four Scarecrows?

Everyone was faintly worried. After all, everything else was left to the surface of the sea. The entire ship was a ghost body, and it could drown everyone as soon as it disappeared and drowned. But Saul doesn't think so. Everything in the rules may be false, including this voyage.

"Since the rules position us as guests or tourists, let's go with the flow." Sol pacified everyone in a low voice.

When boarding the ship, Sol deliberately observed the draft of the ship. It did not seem to have a large load, nor did he float on the water strangely, which was still logical. Following the inclined pedals, everyone quickly stood on the top deck of the ship.

Sol raised his head by the lights on the side of the ship and looked at it. It was obviously a four-masted sailing ship, slightly larger than the one that Sol took in Silent Hill last time. After seeing it roughly, Sol quickly discovered anomalies, for example, the entire ship was not seen by a single sailor.

At this moment, there was only the old captain on the entire deck, Sol was carrying Aresa, and Gerrabi was carrying Sereo, and the four pairs of eyes were thoughtful. Sol looked back at the mountain hut in the center of the island, maybe it was a little far away and he couldn't see anything clearly.

"Since the guests are all here, let's set off now." The old captain patted his palms to himself. Obviously he didn't intend to consult Saul and others. Then the whole ship suddenly lifted anchors and sails, and there was no wind. Drive automatically toward the sea.

Saul watched the other party's performance silently, wondering where to start. The huge bright full moon left a reflection on the sea, and the sparkling sea in front was reflected pale, and everyone seemed to be driving all the way to the moon.

"Hello Captain, when we were staying on the island, we met a family of three. I don't know if you know anything about their family." After the boat was sailing for a while, Sol took the lead in making a trial and watching the sea view from the deck. The old captain asked.

"A family of three on the island?... Well, you should be talking about Joseph's family? Husband Joseph, wife Naomi, and what is the name of the innocent and beautiful little daughter... Oh, yes, Their daughter seems to be Little Fanny."

"That's really an energetic child, pure and kind like an angel. Seabirds and Yuyu can be her friends, but her best friends are only three, a pocket scarecrow, a puppet doll, and a book Magic story book."

The captain's words made Thor and the others suddenly realize, well, it turns out that the three friends of Slime are just her cherished toys.

"Speaking of that family, it’s a bit of a long time. It seems to be a sad story! That day was the birthday of their daughter Little Fanny. Joseph, the consul's father, asked about her daughter’s wishes. Little Fanny said yes. The sea has been longing for a long time."

"So on a sunny day, the family of three went out to sea on a boat. This kind of self-driving trip is not unusual in the coastal areas. After two days on the sea, they encountered it when they were about to return. storm."

"Unfortunately, their boat was overturned by the wind and waves. Both his wife and children had no water. Only Joseph, as the local consul, had the need to clean up pirates. He had learned a few skills from the fishermen, so he helped his wife and children on the bottom of the boat. , Follow the trend by yourself."

"The family was ups and downs in the storm all night, until the wind and waves were calm, followed the waves to flow down to this unknown island. Regrettably, the family never went back. At that time, the town even had the name of the incident, called 'The Disappearing Archon'."

When the old captain said this, he stopped, as if he was introducing the life of the family of three. Everyone in the team listened very carefully, and the description of the incident basically matched their speculation on the island, and even the little girl helped everyone to add some missing information.

When everyone was digesting the old captain's words and thinking about how to obtain more information, the old captain spoke again.

"When I landed on the island, the family of three was a little weak. Joseph, who was holding the boat, was cut on his leg by a reef on the seabed. The wound quickly deteriorated and caused temporary blindness. So the burden of searching for food could only be crushed. Wife Naomi's body."

"At that time, the island was scarce of materials...brush!" A sudden sound of breaking into the air suddenly sounded, interrupting the old captain's narration.

"Team...Captain...What are you doing!?" Everyone was bluffed, and they all looked at Saul who suddenly shot. Thor's long sword was always held in his hand, but there was no warning in this shot, and even Elissa, who was lying on Thor's back, was almost thrown off.

The rift in the abyss was sharp and decisive, and with Thor's full force, he cut through the old captain's body without any hindrance.

After a while, a crack of magma tumbling appeared on the surface of the old captain's body. Then the old captain's whole body was cut off, the upper and lower parts of the body were dislocated and separated, and gradually disappeared into the air, and Sol was relieved to turn to the crowd.

"If the old captain said just now that a family of three stopped when they encountered a storm, there would be no problem for the time being. After all, bystanders can only know so much. But in the end he continued to speak again, so I suspect that he is the creature. The real appeal."

"Originally, I thought it was the master of the rules who sent the old captain out to tell us something through him. This old captain did indeed do that. It was like a story telling from the beginning, but listen and listen. I think something is wrong."

"I suspect that he is the real appeal of the creatures, since fighting is inevitable, so I decisively grab the first move." Sol said.

"It's not the captain, if you kill the captain now, how do we get back? And what if the ship disappears? I can't swim!" Jerabi looked at the approach with a bitter expression, although the ship hadn't traveled for too long. , But it has also left the shore.

"Wait first, what do you mean? You said that he is the appeal of the creatures, what appeal?" Issa asked suspiciously on her back.

"Well, first of all the sudden appearance of this old captain and this ship, don't care if he is a ghost or something else, he must have existed before. No matter who it is in or in the memory of the rule owner, he Will be realized."

"To be precise, since he is not the master of the rules, then you can treat him as part of the rules. As for what he said shouldn't be a lie, just standing in a vain today and talking about the true past. It has happened. Old story."

"The previous part of the shipwreck mentioned by the old captain was basically okay. Maybe he was living in the same small town as the Archon Joseph at the time. It is possible that he may have known this small sensation from the rumors. Events in the town."

"But later, when we talked about what happened after a family of three landed on the island, don’t you think it’s abnormal? He said that Joseph suffered a leg injury and blindness, etc. The details are vivid, is it like he has been standing by and silently observing the family of three? People are the same."

"The reason why the old captain knows everything like omniscience and omnipotence is that I suspect that he is the real aspiration of the creatures, and that the three people in the family really hate the most. The hatred is so deep that it has been realized, so the captain appeared here. In front of us."

"As for my guess, the reason why the creatures hate him is nothing more than three possibilities. One is that the old captain kidnapped a family of three to this island, and then banished the family of three on the island with a small wooden boat. Not because of a shipwreck."

"The second is that the shipwreck did happen, but when the old captain's boat passed through the island, he chose to stand by and watch the family's request for help."

"The third kind is just like we guessed. A family of three men sat on the beach and waited until the end of their lives, but the old captain turned a blind eye when he passed by."

"No matter what the above three are, this old guy deserves to die."

"Although the specific reason why he did not rescue is unknown, I am sure he is definitely not saved. Because if he ever reached out to a family of three, the story itself would not exist at all, and even if it exists, it will not be what we see before our eyes. Version to."

"The ending of this version is that after a family of three struggled to survive, they all died in the end. No one escaped from the island.

"In this story, there are only two possibilities for the existence of the old captain. One is that he is the master of the rules, but this is obviously wrong, because if he is the master, the story will run with him as the core, but obviously on the island The family of three is the core."

"Then the remaining one, the old captain is just an indifferent outsider in the story, and he is also the most damnable person, because he is the true appeal of the creatures that the family of three hated the most back then."
