Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

When you place it in your palm, it will automatically start to spin.

A moment later, he stopped in the southeast direction, Ron said.

"Presumably, the other party hid the item in this direction; it was probably used to guide the way."

Taichiro nodded.

Indeed, this is a very important item; otherwise, why would it be kept in the warehouse?

So they walked in that direction, and when they had gone a certain distance...

Suddenly the disc started beeping, and Ron immediately stopped and said.

"The thing is down there, let's dig it up quickly."

After saying that, they used all their strength and dug a deep pit in the spot a moment later.

Ron quickly dug out a wooden box.

"As expected, he buried the thing here. It seems that this lord's curse is indeed very clever."

But we've found him now, and it looks like we'll defeat him soon.

After Taiichiro finished speaking, he tried to pry open the wooden box.

However, the wooden box was very sturdy, and they couldn't open it even with all their strength.

Ron examined the wooden box carefully and noticed that there seemed to be something inside.

When he shook the wooden box, it made a cracking sound, sounding more like some kind of real object than paper.

Ron looked at the curse lying on the ground.

Do you know what's inside this?

The curse shook its head.

"How could I possibly know? The lord never tells me these things."

Ron didn't believe the curse at all. The fact that the other person had a map of this place tattooed on his body meant that he must know about it.

Ron said.

"Since we don't know, let's open it."

Even though they tried their best again, they still couldn't open the wooden box.

It seems there are hidden mechanisms inside, so everything is locked up.

Taichiro said.

"If we can't open it, let's use brute force."

Ron took a closer look at the cursed figure beside him and noticed a hint of a smile on the cursed figure's face.

Ron immediately shook his head and said.

"Don't try to break it by force, or it will self-destruct."

Ron then noticed a slight change in the cursed man's expression, and he knew that his earlier guess was correct.

There must be a hidden mechanism in this wooden box; if I force myself to open it...

Then this wooden box is very likely to destroy what's inside.

Taiichiro frowned deeply.

"What can we do? This thing can't be opened at all, and we can't see what's inside."

Chapter 16, The Door

The box looked very strange. Ron had always thought there must be something very important inside, but now they had no way to open it.

Taiichiro looked surprised. He tried desperately to pry it open, but found that although it was made of wood, the structure was very sturdy.

After a while, they all realized that they couldn't do anything to the wooden box.

Taiichiro frowned and glared at the man.

"What exactly is going on? You try it."

After saying that, he handed the wooden box to the curse.

Curse looked at the wooden box, then glanced nervously at Ron and Taiichiro. He tried it himself, then shook his head and placed the box on the ground.

"I simply can't open it."

The important information is right in front of them, but they have no way to open it.

Ron was furious.

Taichiro said.

"Why don't we subdue the lord and let him open this box?"

Ron shook his head; it wouldn't be easy to do that.

The Lord's Curse possesses terrifying power, and among all the curses, his wisdom surpasses that of ordinary people, making fighting him an extremely painful experience.

Suddenly, the curse beside him spoke.

"Look over there."

Both of them looked in that direction and saw a door emitting a faint light suddenly appear not far away.

Ron could sense the powerful aura emanating from the door, and he was somewhat surprised as to what this suddenly appearing door was trying to convey to them.

Taiichiro quickly went up, with Ron following closely behind.

The door looked very small, only wide enough for one person to pass through, and it was completely closed.

Ron couldn't help but reach out and touch the door. He could feel that the material used for the door was very strange. It was not one of the materials he knew before, and it looked very sturdy.

Ron pounded on the door, but it didn't budge.

The sudden appearance of this door made Ron very wary.

The cursed man, who was watching the door from the side, suddenly changed his expression and said...

"I've heard before that the appearance of this kind of door means that the world will be in chaos, but that's just a legend. No one believes it now, but the door in the legend is almost exactly the same as this door."

Ron frowned slightly. He had never heard of such a legend before, but the curse was described in such a serious manner that Ron felt that the legend might be true.

Just then, the door suddenly began to shake violently, which surprised Ron. He quickly stepped back and stared intently at the door.

As it shook, the door seemed to suddenly grow larger.

Ron said.

“This door is changing, and we must now figure out what it is.”

After saying that, he rushed over and reached out to open the door.

But just as Ron reached out his hand, a tremendous force suddenly sent him flying.

Ron crashed heavily to the ground, feeling dizzy for a moment before slowly standing up.

The attack just now made him realize that the other party was capable of unleashing a very powerful attack.

Ron used all his strength to dissipate that power; otherwise, he would never be as relaxed as he is now.

But he hadn't even seen a shadow of anyone when he was attacked.

He quickly looked around, trying to find the other person's whereabouts.

But the surroundings were deserted, and there was no one else besides Taiichiro.

Ron said loudly.

"Who's behind this? Get out here right now!"

But a long time passed without any response.

Taiichiro was somewhat surprised. He went to Ron and helped him up.

"what is going on?"

Ron said.

"Just now, when I tried to open that door, I was suddenly thrown back by a huge force. If I'm not mistaken, someone must be hiding here."

But we haven't found anything yet. Who is he? Why is he stopping us?

Taichiro looked at the curse.

Is he one of yours?

The curse shook its head and said.

"How is this possible? If he were one of my men, he would most likely have rescued me from here, but he hasn't made any contact with me yet."

Ron tensed up and looked around carefully, but the energy here was very peaceful, and he could not sense any energy fluctuations at all, which meant that there was no one around.

Ron cautiously approached the door and tried again to reach out and open it.

This time, however, there seemed to be no attack. Ron's hand finally touched the doorknob, and he felt an electric shock. In an instant, a surge of energy rushed towards Ron.
