Chapter 188 The Water of Life

Will Jefferson is definitely not enough to become a captain.

He saw that Xin Sheng planned to take advantage of the situation and use this matter to hit him and the sailors of the Royal Navy, and initially establish his authority as the captain in front of the newcomers.

After gritting his teeth, Jefferson lowered his head and surrendered in dissatisfaction: "...No, I have no objection, you have the final say, Captain."

"very good."

Xin Sheng pulled the corner of his mouth: "Queen Mary's situation is urgent, we don't have time to waste."

"Barnabas, set sail and sing the flag to keep the Falcon Eagle."

"yes!"

"Show off! Set sail!"

...

Xin Sheng and Barbosa were lucky. It was a good time to return to the Caribbean at this time. It only took about 2 months to return to the Caribbean.

After sailing from London Port, Xin Sheng first returned to the captain's office and took out the Galileo notes that Barbosa gave him to read.

"Tsk~Italian."

Tickling his head, Xin Sheng shook the bell in the room, and Angelica, who lives next door, quickly opened the door and walked in.

Since Elizabeth occupied the bed last time, Xin Sheng has specially built an additional separate cabin in the captain's room to deal with this special situation.

Angelica's temptation to sailors is not comparable to Elizabeth, who has a flat body.

In order to avoid accidents of accidents, Xin Sheng was really worried about letting her live in the lower cabin, so this special room was naturally handed over to Angelica for use.

Angelica couldn't help much on the boat, but she was unwilling to let herself be idle and became the only person on the boat to eat for nothing.

After Angelica's volunteer application, Xin Sheng often asked her to convey some orders to the crew on her behalf.

"Angelica, please ask me if Herodotus can translate Italian, and if so, call him over."

“Italian?”

Angelica tilted her head: "Don't call Herodotus, I will."

"……ah?"

Angelica saw the disbelief expression on Xin Sheng's face, and she disagreedly put her hips on her chest and said, "Did you forget where the Roman Orthodox Church came from?"

“As a devout Catholic, Italian and Latin are the must-learn languages.”

“Uh~”

Xin Sheng suddenly patted his forehead: "Sorry, I really forgot."

After thinking about it, Xin Sheng handed Galileo's notes to Angelica.

"Then please help me translate the text on this note."

"I'll remind you first, there are many professional terms on it, so there is no need to show off."

"Hmph! Don't underestimate me."

Angelica is not a professional astronomer, and Xin Sheng is not worried that she can decipher and hide important information from Galileo's notes.

Xin Sheng also relies on the reverse deduction of preconceived ideas. If he is really in the game, it is impossible to crack the secret of this note with his knowledge reserves.

As Xin Sheng said, Galileo's notes have many astronomy-specific terms, and Angelica's translation work is very difficult.

Herodotus did not understand Italian, but he could help Angelica understand some uncommon professional vocabulary with his recorded historical knowledge.

With the efforts of the two, Galileo's notes were deciphered at a slow and steady pace.

Captain Jefferson and the seven Royal Navy sailors did not perform abnormally. Their every move was under the control of Barnabas. Xin Sheng would be notified immediately if there was any movement.

The Falcon is a new generation of high-speed warships in Britain. Although the maximum speed of the tailwind is not as fast as that of the Black Pearl, it is at least faster than the old interceptor.

The Hawks were not allowed to be lost, and the Jackdaw did not increase its speed to the maximum. The formation of two ships spanned the vast Atlantic Ocean and headed to the Caribbean.

During the period when Angelica and Herodotus collaborated to decipher the notes, Xin Sheng dug out the map of the universe obtained from Singapore.

The Qiankun Map is a magical sea chart, which is said to be a treasure left by ancient Chinese immortals.

The locations of many ancient treasures are recorded on the chart, but the user needs to rotate the mechanism on the chart to align the patterns.

In Xin Sheng's words, it's like playing a puzzle game.

“aqua       vida(Spanish: Water of Life)”

Next to this Holy Grail logo engraved in Spanish, there is also a ship with the name Ponce de Leon written on it, with 1523 annotated next to it and the course of the ship is marked in detail.

"Hiss~"

Xin Sheng pulled the corner of his mouth and touched his chin: "... Interesting, the Qiankun Picture can also automatically add details according to the historical process, and it is worthy of being a treasure of the immortal family."

“Florida, White Hat Bay.”

Florida is the peninsula in the southeast corner of North America, where Ponce de Leon served as Governor of Florida, and it was here that he began his journey to search for the Undying Springs.

As for White Hat Bay...

“I heard sailors say this place name in a Caribbean tavern.”

Herodotus left Angelica to continue translating the notes, walked to Xin Sheng and looked thoughtfully at the route marked on the Qiankun map.

"It is said that White Hat Bay is one of the sea forbidden zones, and there is only a certain probability that the ship entering this area will be attacked by a mermaid."

"Even pirates won't venture into White Hat Bay unless they are necessary."

Xin Sheng nodded in contemplation: "Is it a natural protective barrier? It makes people feel that it is like that."

Danger means few people will approach it, and secrets are easier to preserve.

It has been nearly 200 years since Ponce de Leon died, and his ship has not been found, and only this kind of sea restricted area is easier to hide.

Xin Sheng is not the only smart person in the world. Some people will definitely think of this and go to White Hat Bay to explore.

Before his death, Ponce de Leon stored all his treasures on the boat and docked in White Hat Bay.

The wealth is touching. For more than 100 years, adventurers and pirates have been trying to find his treasure one after another, but they all ended in failure and sacrificed their own lives.

"Mermaid..."

Mermaids in the Pirates of the Caribbean are indeed beautiful. They have the upper body of a human beauty, but the lower body is dragged with a long fish tail.

Mermaids are not as beautiful as their appearance. They will seduce and prey on sailors near White Hat Bay, and can even drag large ships into the sea and tear them apart when they are angry.

Xin Sheng is not a saint, and he will not have any mercy on such creatures that prey on humans.

To obtain the true fountain of immortality, you must first get the mermaid's tears and two holy grails.

The Holy Grail was hidden in Ponce de Leon's ship. Just follow the chart to find the whereabouts of the ship.

But the mermaid...

After observing the Poseidon trident stored in the space ring, Xin Sheng habitually rubbed the bridge of his nose.

‘If it really doesn’t work, I can only use tough methods.’
