Chapter 772 - The Ship’s Grave
Angor headed to the ships while wondering if Lucas was referring to these ships by saying “treasure”. This was very likely since there were no other spots on this dead island that could be used for keeping treasures.
He moved closer and realized that there were way more ships than he expected, and they were all in different conditions. Some of them did not have obvious damage at all—they could set sail just fine if not for the fact that they were trapped in the cramped space.
At first, he went to a stranded and somewhat broken ship called “The Winter Hunter”, which could be seen since this name was painted on the side of it. It had a fierce-looking octopus as its figurehead.
He walked on the ship’s deck for a few steps and accidentally created a hole in the floor. He then floated around and failed to find anything on the ship. Not even dead bodies. It was as if the ship was just pulled out of assembly and had yet to experience its first journey.
The next few ships nearby all looked similar. No bodies, no cargo. In fact, Angor could see some traces that suggested someone—probably the crews—moving the goods away for some reason.
Although the exact destination of the goods remained to be found out.
After searching around a dozen more ships to no avail, he managed to find some “leftover” on a ship called The Hosen Blues. It was another logbook.
The author didn’t leave his name on the book, but from the entries, Angor could tell that this one was written by an amateur navigator who newly joined the crew.
