Cursed Seas.

In the entire great route, perhaps there are not a few sea areas with such names.There are inevitably some exaggerated performances with a lot of water, but this one now…

“I really didn’t expect you to have biotechnology. What’s the matter with this crooked and jumping technology tree…” Matthew held a phone bug in his hand, and sighed, “In short, according to my ability In the scope survey, all the rumors about this sea area are almost true. If you stay in the sea area for more than a day, you will contract a serious disease. No matter what kind of famous doctor it is, it cannot be cured, and you will die in pain in the end. The disease The symptoms are almost the same, depending on the individual’s physical condition and age, the time of death varies from 3 days to 3 months.”

“Matthew… did you find anything like the Internet?” You Xiang asked after knowing so much.

“It’s biotechnology… I’m actually not very familiar with it, because biotechnology is still in its infancy in the world I live in. I didn’t expect this backward barbarian world to use biotechnology so proficiently.” Matthew observed Phone bugs, he said, “so that’s all there is to intelligence. Now it’s just wiretapping… There’s no internet, and there’s nothing online. But in that sea… there are living humans.”

“Hey?!”

“They also use this thing called a phone bug, so I learned about it through eavesdropping. There is indeed a certain disease spreading on the island, but not everyone will die, and a few people will survive… But because of the death The haze of the island seems to be isolated from the world, isolated from the world.”

Does anyone still live there… But no one dares to approach, and no one wants to investigate why someone died.So the people above, why don’t they leave?Is there any other reason…

“I don’t believe in curses, it should be some kind of infectious disease.” Matthew put down the phone bug while speaking, “I will not be infected by diseases, so when I reach the limit of the safe range, I will Go to the island to investigate in person.”

“Is Matthew okay by himself?”

“I’ll have no problem. I’ll leave the terminal on the ship and operate the machine remotely. That way, if there’s any problem, we can abandon the machine and retreat immediately.”

It’s so convenient.As expected of Matthew.He was really thinking of a safe solution… and really believed that there was something useful in that sea area.You Xiang said: “I see… Matthew must be careful alone! By the way, Mr. Corazon is a ghost, right? Let him go with you?”

“No. It’s too troublesome to explain the situation to him, and I’m alone.”

“Hey! Do you want to despise me so much!”

“Humans are very troublesome whether they are alive or dead.” Matthew said that I am not targeting you, I am targeting your entire group, “Miss Youxiang… I have something to tell you. Even if we are really in that What was found on the island… Unless it is a Super Saiyan or a space battleship, the success rate of the plan for this robbery field can only reach half at best. Do you understand what I mean?”

“Matthew…”

“It’s too late to regret it now. I fooled these fools, and immediately fled to other places and waited for the response of Agent Bazel. I will leave this ghostly place and never come back. It’s still too late, Miss Youxiang.” Matthew looked very Seriously, he said, “If you just come to Marlin Vandor like this, it will be too late even if you want to stay out of the way. No matter whether you choose the navy or this group of pirates in the end, the result will not be a safe retreat.”

“………”

“For a person who has only heard the name, for a group of criminals, is it really worth doing this? Miss Youxiang!”

“Matthew… thank you.” I know you are worried about me… I understand your mood, I understand what you mean.I know it’s dangerous.I actually have some fears too.But… Youxiang smiled wryly, and she said, “But, after someone calls for help… no matter whether he is in the sea of ​​fire or on the execution ground, the hero… can’t pretend that he didn’t hear you.”

“We are too lenient in this nosy business!”

“Mr. All Might said that a hero should meddle in his own business!”

“Ugh! Why do you remember his words so clearly at this time!!” Although he knew that there was no way to persuade her, but… I still want to try… Matthew sighed, “I’m trying to persuade her I’ve passed you by. Miss Youxiang. If you get hurt in the future, don’t tell me the pain.”

“Well… Matthew is really strict!”

“Because it’s you, so I have to be strict. Ms. Yuxiang… Hey… No wonder Mr. Aizawa got a stomach piercing. If it wasn’t because I don’t have a stomach at all, I would have a piercing too.” Matthew held his forehead with a headache , he said, “Even if there were no demons binding you, you would still meddle in this kind of business.”

“I don’t know why… It’s just that when I saw the look in the captain’s grandfather’s eyes, I thought he was saying…”

Help.

That voice coincided with that person.For some reason, maybe it’s because they are in a high position, maybe it’s because of their pride, or something else that prevents them from speaking.

please help me.I don’t know what to do anymore.please help me.

I don’t know why such a sound can be heard.Although they can’t say it, although they may never say it.I won’t say words of thanks, or even…don’t ask myself to do anything.but……

“Just treat it as me being capricious, can’t you, Matthew?”

“I didn’t say that… Hey… You have been like this since the day we met. Mr. Zhisaki is also good, and it is still the same now. No matter what time, you can see the light in the darkest place. You know this Is it why?”

“what?”

“…” Because it is you who is shining.Can not you see?This dazzling light, even I can see it.How sad, how pitiful.Obviously, he is burning everything in himself to illuminate the world of others, but his eyes are completely dark.What should I do…You moths flying towards the light, think of a way for me!

Matthew was a little angry, but he still said calmly: “Miss Youxiang, at least promise me one thing.”

“Hmm! What does Matthew want me to do?”

“Ah. I want you to promise me…don’t die. Okay?”

“I don’t want to disappear Matthew!”

“Not that. I mean, don’t die. Don’t go out. Go on with it. Keep this immaculate thought. Hold on to the wish to make all people happy. No matter how impractical, no matter how many people I will laugh at you because of this. Please…don’t give up. Never give up on it. This way I…at least this way, it will make me not want to blow up humans so much.”

Wow, I suddenly feel that the mission is heavy.Youxiang was a little surprised, but immediately smiled again: “Matthew wouldn’t do that~ But, I promise you! Matthew! I won’t give up again! I will go back to that person… I will work hard Fulfill the promise I made to him at the beginning, no matter how unwilling he is, no matter how much he refuses, I will not give up! Then I will return to everyone! Be happy with everyone!”

“…” This smile… ah… this smile.If it could hang on your face forever, the world wouldn’t be so fucked up.Matthew also smiled, “Yes. I will also help you achieve this wish. Even if it means blowing up this planet, I will not hesitate.”

“As touched as I am, don’t blow it up. Matthew.”

“Well… If I have to, I can still blow it up. As a last resort, let’s collect some materials to create a ‘Skynet’ system now.”

“No, Matthew!! I don’t know what Skynet is, but it sounds scary, so no!!”

“Miss Youxiang, although you are a hero, but Matthew is—the mastermind behind the scenes!!”

“That makes sense!! But the black hand behind the scenes is no longer popular!! Come be a hero, Matthew!!”

“Heroes are really obsolete! Matthew needs to follow the trend!”

What the hell are you talking about… It’s really noisy.Young people really have energy.Marco came from not far away, and heard Matthew and Youxiang arguing from a long distance. When he got closer, he saw that Youxiang was dragging Matthew’s arm, and Matthew was dragging her to the side of the boat. Walking over there, still shouting strange words.It’s a relationship, okay, probably.

“Hey! Boy!” Marco yelled, “It’s almost here. The sea you mentioned.”

It’s pretty fast.In terms of the technological level of this world, this ship is quite fast.I did encounter some other ships in the process, but thanks to the tactical camouflage, they were not spotted.When we arrive at this cursed sea area, we won’t encounter any ships——

It should be like this.

“Hello… is that a navy ship?” Marco stood on the side of the ship, and now there was a white warship not far from the right of the Moby Dick, with the navy logo painted on the sail.But from this distance it looks like no one is on it.

“They can’t see us from this distance.” Matthew confirmed, his tactical camouflage was still activated.Manufactured from shards of glass, it enveloped the Moby Dick, the simplest optical technology possible.”There was no one on that boat either,” he said.

“Ah?” Do you know it from this far away?

“There are no signs of life on it. But the ship looks very new and in good condition. It probably stopped here not long ago.” Matthew stated the facts he found, and then looked around, “There is no danger around, visible to the naked eye. There’s an island ahead…signals of life…327…326. One signal just disappeared.”

“Do you know that it’s so far away?!” The island is still only faintly visible…Marco was a little surprised, “What kind of ability do you have?”

“I said I’m not human. This is my standard skill. Not only me, any artificial intelligence can do it as long as it has a satellite.” It’s just that humans are too weak to do it.Matthew said, “The situation is a bit strange, let’s get closer. I can detect general infectious diseases from the air, and there is no danger at present.”

“Ah. I see.” This person may be quite reliable.perhaps.Marko said so, and then he went to tell the man at the helm to move on.And Matthew went to the bow.

“I said, cabbage.” Corazon looked at the island in front of him, and he suddenly said, “I have a bad feeling. Don’t leave my side, you know?”

“Huh?” Not a good feeling?Youxiang looked up at him in surprise, “But Mr. Corazon is a ghost, so he can’t do anything, right?”

“I can still block a knife or something.” Since you can interact with inanimate things, you should be able to do this.Corazon said, “Anyway… that place, there is something strange about the air. It’s like the air I felt in that dream world. It’s cold… and… quiet.” There are some deafening silence.Yes, even if this is the middle of the sea, it is too quiet.

What about seabirds?What about the waves?And what about the special sea kings in the great route…why is there nothing?The navy’s warships have obviously only been shelved for a while.And what about the Marines?It is impossible for them to leave the warship here and leave no one behind.For such a large warship, the leader should be a lieutenant general.What are they doing in this sea area?

“Hmm…” You Xiang didn’t feel anything.She was just a little worried… Matthew said that there are people living on that island, but such an island is isolated from the world and has the haze of infectious diseases. If no one helps them, is it just… the people on it , What kind of despair have you been living in?

“A boat is approaching!!”

At this moment, the person standing on the watchtower shouted.Youxiang and Kerazong glanced at each other and walked towards the bow of the ship.After approaching, I saw a small boat floating over, and the people lying on it were wearing white navy uniforms! !

“Hey! It’s the navy!”

“On that ship over there?”

“I seem to have passed out…”

The navy in the boat lay there, visibly unconscious.He was alone, unarmed, and had no obvious trauma, but the man was pale and showing signs of coughing up blood.

“Fill it up.” You have to see what’s going on.Captain Whitebeard gave such an order, and several people immediately fished up the boat.The unconscious Marine was thrown on deck, alive but unconscious, and appeared to be very ill.Whitebeard glanced at him, then said, “Is this the curse of the island?”

“There is no sign of infectious disease in the air…” Matthew confirmed his sensor, he approached the marine soldier, and checked his injury, “It is not airborne. There is no trauma to the body. The intracranial pressure is too high… This is… …Wait, wait! This is?!”

Matthew’s expression suddenly became serious, and he immediately jumped up: “Stop the boat!! Don’t move forward!! Go back immediately!! Miss Youxiang, don’t come here!! Go to the stern immediately!!”

“What, what’s the matter, Matthew?!” Youxiang didn’t dare to approach after being shouted like this, and Corazon even grabbed her.

“Don’t come here!! Mr. Newgate!! Keep the boat away from that island immediately! Everyone!! Don’t be dazed, hurry up!! Do you want to die?!!”

I have never seen Matthew so nervous before, and he looked quite surprised, what is going on… Anyway, after he said this, everyone let the boat go back again, and retreated to a place where the island could hardly be seen. After a long distance, Matthew said it was ok.

“Matthew…what’s going on? Is it an infectious disease?” Youxiang cautiously dared not approach him.He was still squatting beside the navy with a dignified expression.

“It’s not contagious,” Matthew said. “It’s okay. This Marine isn’t contagious. But he’s…” curable.Matthew shook his head. He said, “I really underestimated this world. Miss Youxiang… It seems that we are really lucky.”

“What the hell is it, Matthew… so scary!”

“It’s really scary. This is one of the most terrifying weapons of mankind in the age of the earth.” Matthew raised the corner of his mouth, and he said, “The nerves in this human’s brain are covered with small tumors.”

“Hey?!” Why, why…

“There is only one thing that can make the human body grow tumors in a short period of time. Miss Youxiang… is radiation!”

“But why is there radiation here…is that, nuclear radiation or something?!”

“If it is, I might ask Mr. Newgate to just use his ability to submerge this scourge in the bottom of the sea.” Matthew actually laughed, “But no! I have only seen one kind of radiation that allows humans to produce such The change of – element zero! We have found the God particle, Miss Youxiang!”

That, what is that!Still terrible! !Youxiang grabbed Corazon’s fur coat beside her, and she hid behind and said, “What is that, Matthew! I’m starting to get scared! Is it a powerful thing? But if it can make people sick…”

“You should know the space jump technology, Miss Youxiang.” Matthew stood up, and he explained, “You have seen “Star Wars”, so you should know. That kind of technology can be used in the ‘real’ world Can it be realized? Of course – human beings have already made a conclusion. Even if the superluminal engine is invented, the universe is too huge, and it will still cost a lot to go from one galaxy to another even faster than light. time.”

“So is it possible to cross a huge distance in an instant? If the object loses its mass, then this kind of thing may happen. And this kind of substance that makes the object temporarily lose its mass is the ‘God Particle’, which is Element zero.” Matthew said, “Of course there are deeper principles… But now, at least in the world I know, every space jump technology is indispensable for this particle. It is actually scattered in the universe , but only after purification can it be used.”

“And if you’re exposed to higher levels of element zero, you get small tumors growing on the nerves. It’s very similar to other radiation symptoms, but the difference is that these tumors have trace amounts of element zero in them. , under extremely special circumstances, some people will survive the threat of radiation and tumors.”

“Co-existing with tumors…?”

“Ah. Some other external races have different physical conditions from humans. After coexisting, they will become supernatural beings with special abilities such as temporarily losing mass in matter or creating singularities. But human beings… even if they survive, the level of supernormal abilities is relatively low. It can’t cause too much impact.” Matthew said, “This island, I think… this island should have ores rich in element zero or something else, which makes the entire sea area full of radiation. I don’t know Human beings who are passionate stay here for too long, all of them will grow tumors in their brains and die.”

Although Matthew said it lightly, Youxiang still felt terrible.She was completely hidden under Corazon’s coat: “Then, what should the people on the island do…?”

“The ones who survive are those who have the potential of supernatural beings, but if there is no amplifier, they are no different from ordinary people.” Matthew thought about it, and he said, “Even if you go to other islands like this, you won’t be infected. Others. I have an idea, Miss Yuka. I think we have a way…to deal with that speed-of-light admiral, okay?”

Matthew gave a sly smile.You Xiang began to tremble.Although Corazon understood the general idea, seeing this smile, he also began to tremble: “I said… Matthew. Let’s find a way to help those people on the island?”

“Hmph… well. Ms. Youxiang wants to do the same, although to me, it doesn’t matter if I kill them all.” After all, I hate humans.He said, “But… just selling a favor like this will be good for future actions… Let me think about it.”

Matthew began to think with a look of ‘I’m thinking about evil plans, please don’t disturb me’.During this period, Corazon said to Youxiang: “Cabbage, did I tell you? Actually, I used to be in the navy.”

“…Doesn’t the navy restrict appearance?” It’s not convincing for you to say that you are a navy. I said Mr. Corazon!

“I look so bad now! Really! This is my undercover outfit! Undercover!” Corazon emphasized, he said, “That is to say, I… still want to help those The Navy. They must not know what happened. Although it is possible, there is no way to save many people, but…”

Mr. Corazon is a kind man.Youxiang looked at him, and then smiled: “Yeah! I thought so too! There are other people on the island, they must be very scared… let’s help them!”

What? You can’t laugh at me like that, Cabbage.Corazon couldn’t help but also laughed: “Ah, let Matthew think of a decent way!”

“Matthew! I want to go to that island~” Youxiang turned around and pulled Matthew’s clothes, “You can do something, right? Let’s go help them. At least… take them away from this place. Okay, Matthew~~Please~~”

“Yes, yes, yo~”

I thought Matthew would complain loudly, ‘Don’t leave all your troubles to me! ‘What.Unexpectedly, he showed a pure smile, and said with a smile: “I thought of a plan to kill three birds with one stone. I’m such a genius hahahahahaha!”

“…” Youxiang looked at Matthew, then took a step back, grabbed Corazon’s hand and said seriously, “Mr. Corazon, I’m so scared, Matthew actually laughed If this is the case, we should call the police.”

“No, no, no… We were on the pirate ship, we were the ones who reported to the police and were arrested! Then what, rounded up, I am also the police!”

“Then you should think of a way! Brother Corazon!!”

“What can I do? I’m so scared—hey? Did you just call me brother?!”

“Ah… no! It’s your illusion! Phantom hallucinations!!”

“What is that! Is it so difficult to call me brother! Just call me again! Call me again! Little Cabbage!”

“You keep calling people cabbage, so you don’t want it~ Huh…” Just now, I accidentally said it smoothly.Youxiang squinted her eyes to look at him, then walked behind Matthew in small steps and made a face at him, “Then what should Matthew do?”

Not to mention the danger of unpurified high-concentration zero element, it is useless to stay in this world, and it will harm innocent people.Then it’s better to let it play its full value and let Uncle Matthew connect the link of the dimension——

“Sell this island!!”

The author has something to say:

Matthew wants to follow the trend, not to be a hero, not to be a man behind the scenes, not to be a villain, but to be a businessman =w=

This chapter is also a bit long…By the way, element zero also exists in the third dimension, which is the ‘God Particle’.Like the Nobel Prize in Physics a few years ago, a scientist proved its existence.Although for us, space civilization may still be far away, but when I think that these things will really become a reality one day, I feel so romantic~~
