Chapter 2000 Shipwreck
Chapter 2000 Shipwreck
Since Alyssa was a recycler, although her previous vehicle was a starship, she had also been on ships of various types, sizes and functions.
But it was the first time to move forward on the back of a narwhal, and to do so by diving.
Apart from being a little worried about whether the light blue film separating my head from the sea water would break, I didn't have any complaints.
Moreover, narwhals are very talkative. It is hard to imagine that a whale over 30 meters long can talk a lot in a rapid-fire manner.
This situation was interrupted until there was a slight vibration under her feet. For a moment, Alyssa thought it was the narwhal farting...
"There was a ship up there and my horn hit it."
See, this is what happens when you focus too much on chatting while driving.
Alyssa looked diagonally upwards when she heard this, and a dark shadow appeared in her field of vision. It looked like a ship.
The narwhal must have been unable to dodge and scraped it, but did not hit it directly, otherwise it would not have just shaken slightly.
"I have to go up and apologize."
As the narwhal spoke, it began to surface. It had not dived very deep to begin with. Almost as soon as the words fell, Alyssa and the others saw the side of the ship.
This is a very, very old wooden sailing ship, about ten meters long. It is covered by a circle of solid ice that extends all the way to the shore. It must have been frozen here.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that. Is your boat okay?"
Narwhal shouted as he came up, but Alyssa looked at the boat and it didn't look like anyone was there.
The ship's hull, rigging and masts were covered with a layer of ice. From the ship's waterline, it took three or four meters to climb to the main deck.
However, the narwhal was too big. Alyssa and the others on the narwhal's back were higher than the main deck of the ship, almost looking down on it.
So you can clearly see that the main deck is also covered with ice, and no traces of human activity were found.
"Is it a shipwreck?"
Narwhal is a bit confused.
Alyssa knew very well that this ship was most likely brought by the portal. After all, the people of the Glowing Ion Yin Order were unlikely to build this kind of wooden warship themselves.
Benben activated the vehicle-mounted scanner on his back, and soon the data showed that there was no sign of life on the ship, and the hull was almost empty. It was very likely that someone had taken away all the supplies inside.
Alyssa immediately thought that the ship was accidentally teleported here and then frozen and unable to move, so the people on the ship had to take away all their belongings and abandon the ship to escape.
As a captain, Alyssa could relate to the situation.
But immediately, Alyssa noticed that the data given by the scanner showed that there was an energy reaction on the ship.
How can a wooden sailing warship have energy reaction?
The scale of this reaction is not that of a reactor, but it is impossible to confirm what it is based on the data.
Maybe some kind of treasure?
"Wait here for a moment, let's go aboard and take a look."
Alyssa always said that recyclers were different from adventurers, but seeing that the baby couldn't walk, they were exactly the same.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
The narwhal was taller than the boat, and the men slid down on ropes and were able to stand easily on the deck.
This ship must have been here for quite some time. The wooden structure has not rotted, but has turned black due to the severe low temperature.
The sail itself is basically like a rag, looking tattered. If there were someone there, they would definitely not allow something as important as a sail to be damaged.
Although she said she was coming to the ship to take a look, Alyssa didn't have a specific goal. She took a quick look and decided to go to the bridge and the captain's room behind the bridge first. Usually there would be nautical charts or navigation notes in such places. Alyssa was used to looking at the ship's logbook first after boarding a ship.
Going up the icy stairs, as expected, the captain's room was sealed by an ice shell. Sanafia went up and broke the door with one punch.
The entire poop had been converted into a spacious cabin, with frost covering the surface of every piece of furniture in the room.
A human body was slumped against the wall beside the porthole, its left arm resting on a heavy box.
The body was reduced to a skeleton, wearing a jacket and a wide-brimmed hat that covered most of the skull.
His right arm was tightly holding a book, and there were miscellaneous items such as wine bottles scattered around his feet.
Although no other crew members were seen, it appeared that the captain remained on his ship.
Alyssa picked up a wine bottle on the ground and smashed it at the skeleton that looked like the captain. The latter was tilted by the impact, and the bones that were originally close together scattered.
Well, it's confirmed that skeletons are not undead creatures.
The captain's room was spacious enough for this ship, but not enough for twenty people to come in together. Alyssa asked the others to stand guard outside and walked towards the skeleton.
Gently pick up the book the skeleton is holding and remove the finger bones that are still hanging on it.
One side of the book has rotted a little, but in this snowy environment, it is still well preserved.
Alyssa flipped through it and took a few glances. The book was indeed a sailing log.
The name of the ship is the Black Duke, and surprisingly, it is actually a pirate ship.
There are many logbooks that record what ships were hijacked, what cargo was robbed, where the stolen goods were sold, etc. It is basically like a running account.
Alyssa quickly flipped through the lines and saw the last record of the ship.
"That damned white dragon is back, circling over my head like a vulture. I think she could even pull the boat up into the air if she wanted to. Will I die of hunger, cold, or this crazy woman?"
White dragon?
Alyssa recalled carefully before she remembered the creature called dragon.
Because on Alyssa's side, the dragon had been destroyed, completely, with nothing left.
So in Alyssa's view, dragons belong to the category of ancient creatures.
"Boss, look at this."
Alyssa was recalling the illustrations of dragons she saw in books when she was a child, and Sophia took out a key from the captain's clothes.
This key is made into the shape of a mouse skull and looks covered with patina.
Considering the box under the captain's arm, it's easy to guess where the key is used.
Alyssa threw away the logbook and carefully examined the box to make sure it did not appear to have any traps before inserting the key.
The internal structure of the lock should be free of ice, at least it didn't take much effort to open it with the key.
A handful of coins mixed with gold and silver coins appeared in front of her. Alyssa looked at them critically. The purity was too low and they were not worth much.
In addition, there are some gold bracelets, gold rings and the like in this pile of coins. In comparison, these things are more valuable as handicrafts.
But it was too broken, and there were limited pockets on the protective suit. It wasn’t worth much anyway, so Alyssa was too lazy to take it.
Just as she was about to turn around, she heard Li Chengxi say:
"Don't leave in a hurry. There is a secret compartment in this box."
