Chapter 84: Captain Duncan's Sons and Daughters

Even the ghost was once a member of the real world. No matter how terrible the Huo Township, which fell into the subspace a century ago, is now a ship built by craftsmen in the real world. Just like Captain Duncan, he was a human before he turned into the shadow of subspace.

For ordinary seafarers, everything related to the Lost Land must be covered with a layer of "curse" and a "weird" veil, just like the terrifying captain of ghosts is a creature that breeds directly from the subspace. No one will think about whether a natural disaster wandering on the vast sea has any personal joys and anger, or whether there is any interpersonal relationship. In many people's minds, "Captain Duncan" is even like a symbolic natural phenomenon - it can exist without tracing the origin.

Fear builds a high wall in the hearts of mortals, making them subconsciously not think about what details there are on the opposite side of the high wall.

But as a judge who specializes in fighting this fear, Vanna knows how to distinguish the real parts from a series of legends, exaggerations, and whispers.

The terrible captain of the Lost Country... When he was a human, before the Vitherland Thirteen Islands incident, he also had his best friends and family members, and he also had loyal sailors and adjutants under him. He also needed to go to the port to maintain supplies and deal with the city-state authorities.

He could not have been a mobile disaster at all.

Captain Duncan has a pair of children, namely the eldest son Tirion Abnomar and his daughter Lucresia Abnomar—and they are still alive.

It is said that the power of some kind of curse extended their lifespan, allowing the two captains to wander around the world as immortally as their terrible father.

The two captains each held a powerful ship and were wandering on the edge of the civilized world for a long time. Their relationship with all city-states was cold and even faintly opposed, so many people could not even imagine that Captain Duncan had a pair of children in the world, and only a few people who were familiar with history and were rational enough to understand their affairs.

On the other hand, despite their cold relationship with various city-states, the two captains were at least on the side of humans - the terrible curse of the Lost Country did not allow them to follow Captain Duncan's footsteps.???.

The Bright Stars, led by Ms. Lucrecia Abnomar, is a powerful pioneer exploration ship. This lady is passionate about exploring the limits of the world. She is said to have reached the edge of the known world and witnessed unimaginable wonders there.

No one knows what she is looking for on the edge of the world, but on very occasions, she will send envoys to visit the Explorer Association of certain city-states and tell the world some of the knowledge she has found on the route—the only good intention connection is proof that she is still standing on the human side.

It is said that the Explorers Association of Lenggang City-State even awarded the mysterious lady an honorary membership medal, but no one knew whether the latter accepted this... "reputation".

Tirien Abnomar is an existence that is "closer" to the human world than his sister, but more dangerous - more than half a century ago, he served in the frosty city-state in the northern waters, and now he is the most powerful pirate captain in the cold waters.

This moody captain controlled nearly half of the main routes of Lengliehai, with Seafog as the flagship, and more than ten warships fought for him. In fact, he has become a semi-official force on Lengliehai except Lengwang and Hanshuang. The islands it occupied have also developed to the extent that it can compete with the city-state, which is more than the concept of "pirate group".

As for how Captain Tirian transformed from a general under the command of Queen Frost to a pirate leader, there are many different opinions—

Some people say that he was the mastermind of the Hanshuang Rebellion half a century ago, and was the one who personally pushed the Hanshuang Queen to the guillotine. After that, he looted the wealth of the city-state and established a powerful pirate group.

Another theory is completely opposite: a few scholars believe that Tirien Abnomar fought for the queen until the last moment during the Hanfrost rebellion, and he eventually became a pirate and frequently attacked Hanfrost. The ships between the Cold Harbor were discouraged and obsessed with revenge for the Queen.

Fanna didn't know how true or false the speculations were in this messy world. Considering the personalities of the two captains, they should not be interested in explaining their affairs to the world, but one thing is certain: the reappearance of the Lost Country is definitely a major event for them to pay attention to, and even be vigilant and prepare for the war with all their might.

After all, the brother and sister betrayed the Lost Landscaping with their respective ships more than a century ago—and now, their furious father is back from the subspace.

Of course, as Dante Wayne said, this is just a spare card—it's better to come in handy, but you can't bet on this card.

What you can really count on is your own strength.

...

When the bell tower of the church in the block rings, the special rhythm of the whistle also breaks the silence of the night, and the city-state that has been silent for a night gradually wakes up.

The sunlight is gradually spreading along the distant building complex, and the "creation of the world" in the sky gradually fades away in the sunlight, disappearing, and the sounds of cars, horses and pedestrians are coming from the streets. This city surrounded by the vast sea has experienced another night and has safely ushered in the sunrise.

Nina got up early and prepared breakfast. The aroma of mushroom sauce and toast helped Duncan dispel the sleepiness of this human body in the early morning. Listening to the bicycle ringtones from the street outside, he suddenly said, "Do you want a bicycle?"

"Bicycle?" Nina was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand, "That's so expensive...and I can't use it either."

"It will be easier to learn," Duncan said. "You don't have to worry about money, I will find a way."

He thought about this issue seriously - although this antique store doesn't look very good, judging from the accumulation and rotation of goods in the warehouse and the cash stored in the store, it should actually have stable sales on weekdays, and it is absolutely more than enough to support two people.

Now Nina's life is in a difficult situation because her original uncle donated more than half of her family's wealth to the cult, and more than half of the remaining money was squandered in spirits, casinos and medicines.

Now that this depraved life is over, he doesn't have to do anything else after the wasted large expenses are blocked. As long as he maintains the store's business normally, Nina can live a better life than before.

Of course, he didn't know how to open a store, and the several purchase channels he knew in his memory were also a little vague, but... he could adapt slowly.

The most important thing is to make Nina truly settle down and make her accustomed to the change that her "uncle" has become reliable again.

Nina lowered her head and chewed her hard bread in small mouthfuls. After a while, she repeated: "That's so expensive..."

Duncan opened his mouth and was about to say something when he suddenly heard a knock on the door coming from the first floor.

"So early... someone came before the door was opened?" Nina was stunned when she heard the knock on the door, muttered subconsciously, then got up and walked out, "I'll go down and see the situation!"

The girl ran downstairs quickly, while Duncan broke a piece of bread and threw it to the pigeon paced on the table: "You said... besides opening a normal store, what other ways to make money faster...why do you need to open a logistics company?"

The pigeon immediately jumped two steps to the side and flapped his wings in anger: "But I'm not here to enjoy me."

Then it started to mutter, "Daiyu was furious and swung the snake spear", and "Elder Tang used his fists to sing, making Qiu Qianren spin like a top", and then "When he looked up, a blood strip appeared on Tathagata's head, filling the full screen, and the three brothers were sweating all over the cold sweat"...

Duncan was stunned: "..."

He could understand that the pigeon could not speak when Nina was there, so he was very worried, but he could not understand what structure the bird's mind had become after holding it for a long time - what mess in its vocabulary!

But before he could speak to the pigeon, Nina's voice suddenly came from the first floor - her tone sounded a little nervous: "Uncle Duncan! There are... two sheriffs coming to see you..."

Sheriff? Two sheriffs came to find him early in the morning?

Duncan was stunned and immediately ordered the pigeon to stay in the room. Then he got up and went downstairs quickly.
Chapter completed!
