Chapter 107 The Origin of Gibbs
Captain Gibbs lit the cigar and took a deep breath, skillfully spitting out smoke rings.
"Since you are Burton's son, I'm not afraid to tell you that the reason why I saved people was because I was cursed by the sea."
Alan blinked his eyes, what is the curse of the sea, he had never heard of it, was Gibbs being deceived?
Captain Gibbs continued, "My ancestor was a pirate, who followed an unreliable pirate king and did all the bad things. Although he lived for a long time, his descendants were short-lived."
"Before he died, he told his grandson that he was cursed by the sea and that his descendants must repay their sins, otherwise they would be very short-lived."
"He also took out a silver coin pendant and said it was given to him by the goddess of the ocean. As long as he keeps doing good things, nothing will happen. He will die after he said that."
Captain Gibbs sighed: "It's a pity that his descendants are not obedient and hate wandering on the sea, so they found a job in the city to live."
"However, the curse mentioned by the ancestors did happen. Each generation of Gibbs would only have one male descendant, who died at about thirty years old. Later, they had to return to the sea to live. In order to repay the sins of their ancestors, they often rescued the ships in distress."
"I am the last generation of Gibbs, and I will return to the sea at the last moment of my life and completely end the sins of my ancestors."
Allen was silent, not expecting Captain Gibbs's origin to be so magical, the curse of the sea, and the goddess of the ocean, always felt something was wrong.
"By the way, can you show me that silver coin pendant?" Allen pretended to be very interested.
Gibbs hesitated for a moment, took it off his neck and handed it to Allen. Anyway, the pendant was just a nostalgic pendant to him.
Allen put the silver coin on his palm and checked it carefully. The silver coin was indeed something from the 16th century, and this silver coin was a magical item.
Alan, who has knowledge of alchemy, quickly identified the problem of silver coins. This was a magical item of cursed nature, and the magic technology used in it was completely different from the current magic.
"It seems to be the technique of ancient magic!" Allen murmured.
Allen has searched for content about ancient magic in the forbidden book area, but basically no, only a few books briefly describe ancient magic.
I also learned some knowledge of ancient magic from the ancient magic palace given by Slytherin.
This silver coin has the nature of ancient magic, but part of the content is to combine modern magic. The person who makes silver coins has a strong magic level and masters the senior level of ancient magic, so that this silver coin can be easily created.
Allen decided not to tell Gibbs the truth, anyway, the silver coin would leave with Gibbs.
Allen returned the silver coins to Gibbs, then turned around and left, leaving the sea to the righteous captain.
...
A few days later, the Mermaid arrived at another port, and the number of people on the boat gradually increased, which was very lively.
Alan looked at the books quietly in the corner of the deck, with only a glass of juice on the table next to it.
Reading in this environment makes you feel a different feeling. When you blow the sea breeze, you will see the vast sea and feel calm.
However, Allen's behavior is very unique. Even if he hides in the corner, he attracts some uninvited guests.
Feeling someone approaching, Allen looked up and saw four people in total, all of whom were underage. The two girls were very hot, wearing bikini, and the two boys looked a little immature, and they were also wearing swimsuits.
A girl said excitedly, "It turns out to be a handsome boy, Amanda, I'm right."
Amanda looked at Allen's appearance, her cheeks flushed, and she looked shy.
The two boys behind him looked very unhappy, they were just a little handsome, and they were so arrogant.
Allen made a magnetic sound; "What's the matter?"
"Handsome guy, my name is Angela. I want to invite you to go to the swimming pool together. We are two missing one." Angela said carelessly.
The boys behind them all had dark faces. What are the two missing ones? Are they not human?
Allen glanced at the four of them and felt that they would cause some trouble, but he refused. It was so interesting to read.
When Angela heard Allen refuse, she looked like she couldn't believe it. She was a beautiful woman, and Amanda next to her was also a pure girl, and a boy actually refused them.
A boy said sourly, "Since others don't want to, we should not force others."
"Yes, the four of us are enough."
Amanda and Angela left reluctantly, and Allen sighed, looking handsome and causing trouble.
Allen put together the book, drank the juice, and slowly left the deck.
However, fate was so coincidental that Alan went to the buffet restaurant for dinner in the evening and met Amanda and Angela again.
"Handsome guy, I'll treat you to a meal!" Angela waved her hand excitedly.
Angela's voice was quite loud, and the guests around her cast an interesting look, making Amanda next to her blush.
Allen calculated that today was a peach blossom.
Seeing that Alan was not moving, Angela went up and pulled Alan to the chair.
If Allen wants to refuse, Angela can't pull him. Since she is destined to be together, it's nothing to have a meal.
"Handsome guy, we don't know what your name is yet." Angela said carelessly, and Amanda next to her also showed an interest.
"My name is Alan Drew, just call me Alan!"
"Handsome guy Alan, I'll treat you to a meal. Order whatever you want." Angela said generously.
Allen always felt that he was kept. He just looked at the menu and it was a relatively expensive dish. I don’t know whether it tastes delicious or not, but the price is ridiculously expensive.
Although it is a buffet restaurant, it only offers ordinary-level food. If you want to eat well, you should order the menu.
Allen ordered two staple foods and handed the menu to Angela, who ordered four dishes each.
The table was filled with ten dishes. These two people were really rich, but Allen was not interested in them.
Allen tasted the steak and it tasted good and fresh, although it was very good, but I'm sorry for the price.
Captain Gibbs entered the restaurant and greeted all the guests. He came to Allen and patted Allen on the shoulder with deep meaning.
"Allen, I'll give you this order, you can eat it slowly." After saying that, Captain Gibbs left proudly.
Allen was speechless. What a smug thing? Is it a misunderstanding?
"Handsome guy Alan, you know the captain, you are indeed not an ordinary person." Angela became more and more interested in Allen.
Alan quickly finished the staple food with the eyes of the two girls, and then ran away. Today, he was in love with peach blossoms and was not suitable for going out.
