Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

"Meeting you was just a coincidence." As a man of the utmost tact, Rich Burke, under Zhou Ning's pressure, fully disclosed his purpose and mission. His captain, Sidney, was the son of Wilt "Storm" and Joaquin "Overalls." He had accidentally lost control while searching for the legendary great treasure. He had come here to find the treasure his captain had mentioned, left behind by his parents.

Of course, if he was unhappy, he had to make his enemy even more unhappy. Rich Burke also mentioned the enemy who might be chasing him - Aaron Ingersoll, and he described it in great detail.

In his opinion, even if his captain could survive, he would not be a match for the beast in front of him, let alone Aaron, who was only the first mate.

Thinking of this, Richie Burke felt much happier and sincerely hoped that the other party would fall into his trap.

"Is there such a thing?"

Zhou Ning couldn't help but be surprised. When he'd heard John talk about "Storm" Wilt, he hadn't imagined he'd actually been so close to the legend. According to Rich Burke, the treasure was brought into the swamp by "Storm" Wilt after he plundered a large Ravender merchant ship. The cargo was worth approximately 80 Ravender gold coins, equivalent to about 65 Victar.

The treasure is hidden in a cave deep in the swamp, in the southeast of the swamp.

65 Vectars! That's 65 Vectars! As for the potential opponent Rich Burke mentioned, nothing would matter to these 65 Vectars. Even if Death came, he would be crushed to pieces.

With a fluttering heart and trembling hands, Zhou Ning looked at Richie Burke and smiled warmly, "Very good. From now on, you and your companions are my captives. Of course, you can refuse or escape to see if I will show you mercy."

Richie Burke wanted to say no, but after feeling the astonishing pressure from the other party, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and nodded dejectedly, "Okay, as you wish. But I want everyone to see it, otherwise you'd better kill me."

Zhou Ning thought about it and felt that this request was actually reasonable. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Very reasonable. You can get 20%."

"Thirty percent, or you might as well kill me." We can talk! Richie Burke straightened his back instantly and bargained.

Zhou Ning stopped talking, simply raised the ebony, pointed it at Richie Burke, and opened the safety catch.

"No, 20% is 20%!" He was serious... Cold sweat instantly broke out on Richie's forehead. He raised his hands and laughed.

Although this guy in front of me is a bastard, he is not an unreasonable person. At least he can get 20%, which is better than nothing.

When faced with the choice between life and death, the heroes of the North never needed help from others to make a choice, and the others also made the right choice and decided to endure humiliation and survive.

Richie Burke's group consists of seventeen people in total. All of them are tall and strong with strong muscles, stronger than Zhou Ning imagined. Not only are they fully equipped, but there are even fire mages and meteorologists among them. To be honest, if a fight really breaks out, Zhou Ning feels that it will take a lot of effort.

After this group of Northern pirates were forced to join, Zhou Ning saved himself a lot of trouble along the way. Some weak monsters didn't even need Zhou Ning to take action, and the Northern pirates just rushed over and solved them. Compared with the group of players around him who could only scratch and shout 666 from a distance, there was a world of difference. They were so useful that Zhou Ning even had the urge to not let them go.

After going deeper into the swamp, the fog became thicker and thicker, visibility was very low, and the water in the swamp began to accumulate. It was often necessary to wade forward, making the soles of Zhou Ning's leather boots feel wet.

Suddenly, the neighing of war horses and the clatter of horse hooves were heard in the fog. When Zhou Ning looked over, he found that in the pitch-black fog, some shadowy illusions suddenly appeared.

It was a battlefield that looked ancient. On one side stood elves with long ears, pale skin, and blue or green facial markings. One elf, wearing golden armor and a crown, held a staff high, chanting an incomprehensible spell. On the other side stood what looked like humans. Behind them lay an indistinct being, shrouded in light. The clash of swords and the clashing of thunder and lightning seemed like hallucinations, still faintly echoing in my ears. It felt quite unreal.

At this moment, Jasmine's cold voice rang out hurriedly: "Hurry up and lower your head. Don't look over there!"

Although he didn't know why, Zhou Ning had always been a person who readily accepted good advice. He subconsciously lowered his head and looked at his toes. At the same time, he also warned the others.

A moment later, as a breeze blew by, these ancient scenes disappeared in the wind.

Zhou Ning looked to the side and found that a Northern pirate who was very close to him had quietly disappeared from the spot, as if he had never existed.

"I never thought such a phenomenon could actually exist in the swamp." Jasmine sighed deeply and explained, "Hundreds of years ago, oh, in your place, it should be over a thousand years ago. This was once the territory of the High Elves. The Elf King Alfred led his arcane army to conquer the Dark Iron Dwarves and forged countless extraordinary weapons for him. This gave him the confidence to conquer humanity, and he took action to do so. The Elf King almost succeeded. He led his arcane army to victory in the war and hanged every human he could see. However, due to the interference of the gods, his plan failed. The Elf Kingdom he created disappeared from history, and the vast majority of the elves retreated to the islands of the Sea of ​​Misty and the Forbidden Sea."

"According to records, this illusion was created by the Elf King Alfred out of intense resentment. It was also the battle in which he ultimately lost. The probability of it appearing is very low. However, according to records, anyone who dared to look directly at the illusion would be absorbed into it."

This illusion sounded somewhat similar to his own Stand ability. The Elf Kingdom ruins on the sea that One Piece had previously explored were probably left behind by the remnants of the Elf Kingdom. If it weren't for Jasmine's warning, he might have been completely wiped out right now... The world of Apocalypse is truly amazing. Zhou Ning sighed in fear.

Facing the bewildered crowd, Zhou Ning recounted the secrets he had learned from Jasmine. The players, already very interested in these kinds of unusual stories within the game, couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

The journey was very peaceful for the next period of time. I didn't encounter any boss-level monsters, but I gained a lot of life cores. I could go back and report to Mr. Turin.

The compass that doesn't point north is still pointing to the southeast, but the needle has begun to shake constantly. People who often use a compass know that it is obviously not too far away from the target.

As we went deeper, in addition to the life elements and flowers, plants and trees with long legs, there began to appear some giant lizards that could spray venom and clouds of rising black mist. These black mists were formed by countless poisonous insects, the number of which was enough to make people with claustrophobia faint.
