"How can I have that ability?"
"Neither do I! Okay, go to bed. When you wake up tomorrow morning, forget about what happened tonight."
On the other side, Edward and Klein returned to their rooms, quickly washed up, and went to bed.
Before going to bed, Edward prayed to Mr. Fool and got two Blasphemous Cards, refreshed all his extraordinary abilities, and then taught Bernadette Chinese for an hour.
After she left, I gradually fell asleep to the sound of the waves.
...
Silver City, Berg's house.
After hanging around in front of Dak and the others for several days, Derrick didn't know whether he had attracted their attention or not, but he could only wait.
After a day of training, he dragged his tired body back home, took a bite of the hard-to-swallow black grass, hesitated for a long time, and then took out the suitcase from under the bed that Mr. Hightower had lent him to offer as a sacrifice to Mr. Fool. The suitcase contained a piece of food that had been offered as a sacrifice last time.
Derrick would occasionally eat a little to neutralize the taste of the black grass, but he was very restrained, fearing that he would get used to the food outside and would no longer be able to tolerate the taste of the black grass.
The reason why it has not been returned to Mr. Hightower is not because he wants to keep this precious extraordinary item for himself, but because Derrick has not given up the idea of leaving the City of Silver through sacrifice - this suitcase is equivalent to a hope.
"I don't know if Mr. Gaota has managed to leave here."
Derrick sighed. Of course, he was very anxious about the outcome of this matter, but he restrained himself from asking Mr. Fool or Mr. Hightower. Even when he consulted Mr. Hanged Man last time, he did not ask them casually.
Because he knew that things had to be done one by one, and the more important thing at the moment was to deal with the contaminated team members first, and how to get rid of the suspicion of the chiefs afterwards.
In fact, Mr. Hanged Man had advised him last night to take care of himself and not to worry about the members of those teams - they would be exposed sooner or later, and then the top leaders of Silver City would naturally deal with them.
But Derrick refused. He loved Silver City and everything about it, so he couldn't pretend he didn't know when he knew there were hidden dangers. What if... what if the real Creator affected Silver City through those polluted team members, causing an irreparable disaster here?

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. "Derrick, we want to get together later to discuss our next outing. Do you want to come?"
The smiling voice came from Dake, "We can taste delicious mushrooms together then~"
Chapter 381 The Mysterious Queen's Gift
Here we come!
Could they finally bear it?
At this moment, Derrick was very calm. He quickly pushed the suitcase back under the bed and hid it, then turned his head to look out the window.
At this moment, the frequency of lightning has dropped to the lowest level, with only one lightning bolt streaking across the sky every one or two minutes, lighting up the sky. The entire world and the entire Silver City are in deep darkness most of the time.
Knock, knock, knock! Dak knocked on the door three more times, his tone slightly impatient: "Even if you don't want to eat mushrooms, you still have to come to this party, right? After all, what we want to discuss is very important!"
Derrick sighed. Even if they wanted to discuss the exploration, it should be the business of the exploration captain or the elders. How could ordinary team members like us be qualified to discuss such things?
"Hold on."
Derrick responded and walked forward to open the door.
"Why aren't there any candles?"
Dak asked confusedly, looking at the dark room.
"I was just sleeping."
Derrick retreated back into the house, reached into his secret pocket, and made a crack in the spiritual wall of the iron box containing the "All Black Eye". He then took out a candle and lit it:
"I won't go, you guys just discuss it."
Dak still smiled: "Why not go, are you deliberately avoiding us?"
"No, don't I go and train with you guys every day?"
"But that was only in public. You never approached us in private."
Derrick said, "But I've never approached you guys privately before."
"…"
Dak's tone suddenly stagnated, and there were some faint bloodshot in his eyes: "Then you can join us from now on. We will give you delicious mushrooms, powerful strength, and the Lord's blessing.\w¢zs`xs¢._c-o/m!"
At the end of his speech, he opened his arms and the smile on his face became a little crazy.
Derrick refused without hesitation: "No thanks."
"…"
Dak asked coldly, "Why?"
"What?"
"Why? Why don't you join us?"
"Why? Why do you insist on not eating mushrooms?"
"Why? Why did you reject us?"
"Why? Why? Why?"
Derrick's heartbeat quickened, and he couldn't help but get nervous, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Because I don't want to."
As he spoke, he completely removed the spiritual wall of the iron box, and the faint mumbling and the feeling of evil and depravity began to emanate faintly.
Almost instantly, Dark, who had just been smiling, suddenly turned gloomy, with a hint of red in his blue eyes:
"What did you do?"
Derrick grabbed the Hurricane Axe fiercely and stared at Dake calmly.
"What did you do?"
Dak asked again, his expression becoming more gloomy, and his words sounded less and less human:
"What is that thing on you?
"What is that on you?
"What is that on you?"
Suddenly, Dak's clothes were stretched out in strips, as if there was a nest of poisonous snakes underneath, which were constantly moving and wriggling.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! One by one, strips of bloody flesh pierced through the black tights and rushed towards Derrick who was standing there.
Derrick, who was well prepared, dodged the strips of meat and swung out the Hurricane Axe fiercely, chopping off several of the strips of meat. At the same time, he rolled over, with his other hand clenched in front of his mouth and nose, as if praying.
Without a sound or a trace of light, a bright beam of burning flames fell from the sky and hit the bloody strips of flesh that were tangled together. Dak let out an unbearable scream, and the bloody strips of flesh fell to the ground, charred and broken.
At the same time, the dim candlelight in the room suddenly expanded and formed an illusory and mysterious door.
This was a scene that Derrick had simulated countless times in his mind over the past few days.
With a not-quite-real creaking sound, an illusory door with strong winds opened. Inside the door were countless transparent shadows of indescribable shapes and seven pure lights of different colors.
And above those rays of light was endless gray-white fog, and an ancient palace overlooking the gray fog.
At this time, the monitor hidden in the corner of the room finally couldn't bear to watch any longer. He turned into a black shadow and wrapped around the two of them.
But Derrick suddenly pulled out the iron box from his secret pocket and threw it hard at the illusory door created by the candlelight.
The next second, the iron box disappeared, and the door covered with strange symbols and logos closed with a clang and then disappeared quickly.
Derrick then fell to the ground with a crazy look on his face and fell into a coma, but a strange little insect with twelve transparent rings fell from his hand.
Then, the monitor who had dealt with Dake, who had turned into a monster, turned his attention to Derrick. After seeing the strange little bug on the ground, he was slightly surprised: "This is..."
...
Above the gray fog, in the majestic ancient palace.
Klein, who was playing with the "All-Black Eye", suddenly saw the deep red star symbolizing the little "sun" expand with light and condense into a human-shaped shadow, and the power of the mysterious space was pried open a little.
Through the scene he saw just before the illusory door closed, Klein saw the little bug that Derrick had left behind and breathed a sigh of relief. So far, the overall development of the matter was the same as the plan that the Hanged Man had helped Little Sun with last time.
Dark's mutation will surely make Silver City re-examine the other team members; the legacy of the Time Worm will allow the Silver City's top leaders to know about Amon's existence, while at the same time putting the blame on Amon for the "evil god" that Little Sun believes in.
As for Derrick, how to get rid of the suspicion of Silver City and get through the difficulties will all depend on him.
Thinking of this, he grabbed a paper man and threw it at the crimson star corresponding to the "sun".
"After doing what needs to be done and working hard in the areas where we need to work hard, we can only wait for fate to decide. I hope it will be a good result..."
...
Nothing happened overnight.
By the next day, life on the ship became increasingly boring.
Indeed, there were entertainment venues such as a billiard room, a bar, and even a casino on the White Onyx. Klein and Edward went to have a look around, but they found that they were not very interested in any of them.
This is not quite accurate. Klein is still very interested in winning money in the casino, but unfortunately he lost several Soles after playing a few games. He could use his extraordinary ability to cheat, but everyone is an ordinary passenger who comes here for entertainment. It is somewhat despicable to use his extraordinary ability to win their money.
So after a round, Klein found Captain Ellan and Big Copy Benjamin who were resting on the deck. He chatted with them and asked them about German Sparrow, as well as some rumors and secrets on the sea.
Of course, Ellan and the others would not talk nonsense about "Gehrman" in front of him. As for those legends, although he felt that it was a bit strange for the great Gehrman Sparrow to ask about these things, when he saw Lilith's eyes open and her face full of curiosity, he still smiled and said:
"There are many legends on the sea. The most frequently mentioned one is of course the legend of treasure, but most of them are false." Ellan said with a smile.
"There are six most famous stories. The first one is 'The Key of Death'. It is said that in a secret place in the Raging Sea, the treasure left by the God of Death is waiting for someone with a specific key to find and open it. But no one knows what the key looks like or where it will appear."
"The second one is the 'Fountain of Youth', which is located deep in the Sonia Sea. It is rumored that one of the Four Kings, the 'Immortal King' Agaritu, drank the water from the Fountain of Youth."
Lilith blinked her eyes and said, "Is the Fountain of Youth... delicious?"
"Well."
Alvin was stunned. Most people seemed to be more concerned about whether drinking the fountain of youth would really make them immortal, right?
Is it delicious? He is indeed a child.
So he laughed and said:
"I can only ask the 'Undying King' Agaritu. However... this Fourth King has been famous for a long time. When I was still serving in the navy, I briefly met him in the Scourge Strait of the Raging Sea. He didn't seem to have any signs of aging."
He smiled and said, "In fact, the legendary treasure I yearn for the most is the 'Sunken Laurel'. More than a hundred years ago, it was loaded with gold, jewelry and various valuables worth millions of pounds that the kingdom obtained from East Balam. Because it deviated from the course, it sank somewhere in the Raging Sea and the Sonia Sea, and it has not been found until today."
Klein's heart was beating wildly. Millions of pounds? This was truly an unimaginable amount of wealth. If I could really find it, I would drink one potion and throw one away from it in the future - I was so generous!
