Chapter 4471 Chapter 4473 [War of Gods]
Turning around, Jack said goodbye to the mermaids and prepared to return to the Black Pearl.
Although the Mermaid Kingdom is a gentle place with fine wine, delicious food, beauties, singing and dancing, he always feels that the Black Pearl is his home.
"Take me back, James." Jack said to Xiang Nan, "I remember that when I left the Black Pearl, I forgot to put down the anchor. I don't even know where it has drifted to now. What if it hits a rock and sinks? Trouble."
"Don't worry, no matter where it drifts, I can take you back." Xiang Nan smiled, then grabbed Jack's arm, apparated, and took Jack back to the Black Pearl.
"It seems that you are really unwilling to kill Barbossa." Xiang Nan looked at the Black Pearl and said with a smile.
Jack nodded.
After he went to sea on the Queen Anne's Revenge, he quickly found Barbossa's Black Pearl under the guidance of the wish compass.
He carried out a sneak attack in the dark night. While the crew was resting, he slowly approached the Queen Anne's Revenge, then used the Sword of Triton to control the Black Pearl and captured all the crew members. Lifted with cables.
Among them was old enemy Hector Barbossa.
Barbossa was very tough after being caught and took over all the crimes by himself.
"Jack, I was the one who instigated the betrayal of the crew, and it was I who exiled you to the desert island. If you want revenge, just take revenge on me and spare the others." He said loudly to Jack.
Barbossa is a qualified captain. Although he always scolds the crew and tells them to work quickly and not be lazy, he also loves his crew.
When Cory Busso was released in "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", his request was to ask the goddess of the sea to spare him and his crew; when negotiating with Salazar in "Pirates of the Caribbean 5", he also asked Salazar not to kill His crew…
In the end, Jack did not kill Barbossa cruelly. Instead, he gave Barbossa the Queen Anne's Revenge as Xiang Nan said, and he only wanted to return the Black Pearl.
"That's not surprising, you are old partners after all." Xiang Nan smiled.
According to "Pirates of the Caribbean Prequel", Jack has known Barbossa since he was very young. After that, the two went on adventures together, traveled across the four oceans, and experienced countless life and death difficulties... Therefore, if you really want to kill him, you really can't do it.
"Don't think I'm so weak, I'm just letting him go temporarily." Jack said arrogantly, "And if I hadn't been able to sail two ships myself, I definitely wouldn't have given him the Queen Anne's Revenge."
"You're right." Xiang Nan nodded, "Okay, I wish you a good time, I'm going back to Atlantis."
…
Xiang Nan then returned to Atlantis.
"Thank you, priest, for allowing us to regain our freedom." The mermaids all said gratefully.
"You're welcome. You are all descendants of the sea **** Poseidon and the subjects of the ocean goddess Kolybuso. You should be protected by her." Xiang Nan said, "From now on, you must regain your respect for Kolybuso. faith, and I will guide you back to the embrace of God.”
"Yes, priest." The mermaids nodded.
"Great ocean goddess Cory Busso, please bless these mermaids so that they can have a life of prosperity, tranquility, happiness and security." Xiang Nan led the mermaids in prayer. "As long as you devoutly believe in me, I will protect you and give you the life you want." Cory Busso said to the mermaids through the crystal ball.
The mermaids immediately rejoiced and were extremely happy.
After the sacrifice, Xiang Nan stayed in Atlantis, continuing to read books and asking the mermaids about events in ancient times.
In ancient times, Atlantis was once very developed and powerful. Even the gods of Mount Olympus could not hide their edge.
Unfortunately, the masters became more jealous, and Atlantis was finally punished by the gods. The earth shook, seawater poured in, and the entire city fell into the sea.
Of the tens of millions of Atlanteans, only more than 20,000 people died in the end, which can be said to have been a devastating blow. It is precisely because of this that the civilization of Atlantis declined significantly.
Just like Mongolia, during the Genghis Khan period, the Mongolian army was very well-equipped, even equipped with hot weapons such as artillery, rockets, and muskets. It fought all the way to the Danube River, swept half of the earth, and was invincible.
But during the Ming Dynasty, after the Mongolians were driven back to the grasslands, they could no longer even make iron pots. The lack of iron tools meant that the army could only use stone arrowheads, almost regressing back to primitive society.
"It's really terrible. There are earthquakes and floods everywhere... I can't even imagine it." The elder of the Mermaid Kingdom said to Xiang Nan.
"Didn't Poseidon, God of the Sea, resist?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.
"Why not? He, his wife Amphitrite, his son Triton and others fought against the gods together, but unfortunately they were still defeated." The elder shook his head.
"Then where are they now? Are they dead or alive?" Xiang Nan asked again doubtfully.
"How do we know anything about the gods? It's just that thousands of years have passed and they have never appeared again. Only the ocean goddess Corybuso protects us." The elder shook his head.
"In addition to the Trident of Poseidon and the Sword of Triton, do you have other artifacts in Atlantis?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.
The elder shook his head, "If there were other artifacts, we wouldn't have been bullied by the Gill Men and Sea Giants for so long."
"What are the origins of Gill Man and Sea Giant?" Xiang Nan asked curiously.
"The Gill Man has the head of a fish, the body of a human, and is covered with fish scales. They are monsters we created before. We originally used them to mine ore in the sea, but they turned to take revenge on us;
Sea giants are the descendants of the giant race. They are huge and can reach up to twenty or thirty meters high. They are also extremely powerful. It is difficult for us to compete with them. "The elder explained.
"Okay, the ocean goddess Corybuso and I will protect you." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "If the gill men and sea giants attack you, please notify me in time and I will help you teach them a lesson."
"Thank you, priest!" The mermaids were very happy to hear him say this.
Xiang Nan then left a parchment for communication with the elder. If the Gill Men and Sea Giants invade Atlantis, notify him in time and he will rush over to rescue them as soon as possible.
Xiang Nan's approach naturally won him the love of the mermaids.
Many mermaids took the initiative to wink at him.
On the one hand, Xiang Nan is their savior, rescuing them from the tyrant Tang La; on the other hand, Xiang Nan himself is also a very charming person. And they have lived under the sea for thousands of years, and they are really lonely.
However, Xiang Nan did not respond to them, but continued to stay in the library and read.
