Necromantic Myth

Chapter VIII The Metaphor

The clanging sound attracted everyone's attention, and everyone saw a silver scroll-like thing fall out of the charred corpse and land on the deck.

Liu Zhi looked at the thing and was about to pick it up, but Evelyn's reaction was faster than him, so he picked up the scroll in a blink of an eye.

"This is an oracle." Evelyn opened the scroll without thinking about it, and looked at the words on it, "Oh my God, he turned out to be a follower of Triton, and his purpose this time is..."

Before Evelyn finished speaking, the scroll in his hand was ripped away by Liu Zhi, and then Liu Zhi stared into Evelyn's eyes and said, "No matter what the rules are, this is my trophy."

"You can't read it again." Evelyn was also furious, and she wanted to rush forward to snatch the scroll back.

"It's mine if I don't understand, and who told you that I don't understand."

Liu Zhi opened the scroll and found that there were some ancient Greek characters and some pictures on it. Some of the pictures resembled the hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt, but there were some differences.

What left Liu Zhi speechless the most was that he could feel the words were changing slightly, which meant that these words were magical, and he didn't know how the man named Evelyn recognized the words on them.

Seeing the way Liu Zhi frowned, Evelyn seemed to have won a battle, "You don't understand, let me tell you, this is a divine metaphor, and you need to study it specially to understand it. There will be different changes, look at this word, it represents a male mermaid, the son of the sea god, a divine creature, this is the dead Triton..."

【Ding! Received on-site guidance from experts and learned the knowledge of divine metaphors, the current level is level 1. 】

Liu Zhi raised his head and glanced at Evelyn, then silently took out his experience and raised his knowledge of divine metaphors to level 4.

[Divine Metaphor Knowledge Level 4 (0/10000): An expert in Divine Metaphor, who can understand the thoughts of the gods in various patterns, and communicate positively with the gods through words. 】

[God Yuwen knowledge (extraordinary common sense): With a deeper understanding of some gods' writing, you can easily judge whether some writings are directly transmitted from the gods, or have been adjusted by people. 】

[Explanation: The knowledge of divine metaphors is a must-learn professional course for priests. Only those who understand divine metaphors can become caring people of gods. 】

Liu Zhi gave Evelyn a blank look, and then seriously looked at the divine metaphor in his hand. Seeing Liu Zhi's appearance, Evelyn said with some displeasure: "Pretend, if you can recognize it, I will..."

"What's the matter, eat this? It's not an oracle handed down by Triton himself. It's just that someone wanted to revive Triton, and they didn't even find Triton's body. The thing is just to draw out Triton's arrangement in this sea area, by the way, do you have anything else to say?"

Liu Zhi easily explained the oracle, and stared at Evelyn.

Evelyn said with disbelief, "How do you know?"

"I'm not an idiot, such a simple thing can be learned after a while." Liu Zhi started to deal with this volume of divine metaphor while speaking.

He is not a follower of Triton, so naturally he has no intention of keeping this oracle, so he naturally will not keep this oracle scroll.

He directly disassembled the scroll, and removed the gemstones at both ends of the scroll that were used to maintain the power of the divine metaphor.

When the two gems were removed,

The text that was changing slightly every moment was finally fixed, but the effect of communicating with the gods was also lost here.

Seeing Liu Zhi's actions, Evelyn shouted loudly: "Do you know what you are doing?"

"I know, what's the matter, you also want to resurrect Triton?"

Liu Zhi gave Evelyn a blank look, and he didn't plan to pay any attention to this kind of woman. At this time, he already knew the cause and effect, so he could only say that this Karl Charles was not in vain.

This Karl Charles actually had a special purpose in bringing the Star of the Ocean onboard. He planned to use the entire Zeus as a sacrifice in a certain sea area as the soul needed for the resurrection of Triton.

As for the sacrifice method, it is actually very simple. The Ocean Star is a small piece of Triton's soul fragments. As long as this thing appears on the surface of the sea, it will attract some creatures with the blood of the Sea God.

As long as these marine creatures attack the Zeus, tell the captain that there is a problem on the main route and let them sail on another less commonly used route, then the Zeus can be led to the specially arranged sea area.

There will be a hidden reef that is not very advanced. Usually, small boats pass there. The draft is not deep enough, so it will not be affected. However, the Zeus is an Olympic-class cruise ship with a relatively deep draft. Passing there will definitely hit the hidden reef. of.

By that time, the Zeus will have only one way to go, the shipwreck.

And the sea monsters following behind will also take advantage of this opportunity to rush up, leaving no living people behind.

Liu Zhi, who knew this plan from the oracle, had no intention of following the plan at all.

His only goal now is to get to Alexandria as soon as possible. For matters at sea, he can just block three waves of attacks at most.

As for the dissatisfaction with that guy named Evelyn, it has nothing to do with him. After getting off the boat, he and this guy named Evelyn will generally not meet again.

So he naturally disassembled the oracle into materials, and at the same time said to Captain Edward who had already boarded the ship: "I just killed that man named Carl Charles, and he has a copy of the oracle on him. , There will be a few waves of sea monster attacks later."

As the captain of an Olympic-class cruise ship, even if he is only walking in a relatively safe place like the Mediterranean Sea, he has some skills. It can be seen from the fact that he dared to jump off alone to deal with sea monsters. freely.

After hearing what Liu Zhi said, Edward laughed straight away: "It's okay, isn't it just some sea monsters? I'm familiar with the sea monsters nearby. They're delivering food to us."

While speaking, Edward pointed to the side of the boat, and Liu Zhi found that the sailors were dragging the huge crab to the deck of the boat.

"Wait for the two crabs you killed, just take them yourself. If you don't know how to deal with them, we can help you deal with them. This kind of crabs are best used to make weapons and equipment. Look at the shells on them , that is the best material for making legion-level shields, I have a master shield maker on board, do you want me to make one for you?"

"I can't use a shield for that."
