I Built An Empire And You’re Telling Me That I Wasn’t Transmigrated?

Chapter 19: The lost sea!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Oh god! What a spectacular Mirage.”

The young man’s name was Liu Xian. He dropped out of school at the age of 16 and had been fishing with his third uncle for six years.

Although it was not the first time he had seen a mirage in the past six years, it was the first time he had seen such a spectacular mirage.

He exclaimed and looked into the distance with his telescope.

Suddenly, a red object on the surface of the sea attracted his attention.

Liu Xian quickly adjusted the focus of the telescope, and the red object in the picture gradually became clear.

It was a red suitcase!

The suitcase looked like it was brand new, moving with the current.

Immediately, a thought flashed through Liu Xian’s mind.

Could it be a floating object left behind by the Seidel cruise ship?

Although he wasn’t sure, it wasn’t impossible.

Thinking that he might be the first person in the world to discover clues about the Seidel cruise ship, Liu Xian’s blood boiled, and his eyes brightened.

That was the desire for fame and fortune!

“Third uncle, third uncle, stop the boat, stop the boat, I found something.” Liu Xian said through the walkie-talkie as he turned around and waved to the cockpit.

“What? We found something?”

His third uncle was pleasantly surprised but also did not believe fully. After all, more than 200 ships and helicopters have spent the past few days looking for clues. Although he wanted to save the travelers, he knew the hope was slim.

Hearing Liu Xian’s words, he couldn’t help but feel shocked.

“Yes, I…”

Liu Xian turned around, wanting to point in the direction of the suitcase, but the mirage and suitcase were gone. Instead, the ocean was calm, with waves rippling on it.

He was dumbfounded and speechless for a moment.

It was too strange.

“Hey, hey, Liu Xian, Liu Xian, what did you find?” His third uncle’s impatient voice came from the walkie-talkie.

Liu Xian swallowed his saliva and cursed, “Oh god, I am seeing ghosts.”

“Tsk, you little bastard, are you toying with me?” When third uncle heard Liu Xian’s words, he thought that Liu Xian was toying with him and was instantly enraged.

He could tolerate Liu Xian only caring about money, and Liu Xian slacking off, but he could not tolerate joking around with the victims. This was trampling on his moral conscience.

“You little brat, just you wait. If I don’t give you some beating today, then I am useless!” His third uncle cursed, his tone filled with anger.

Liu Xian was awoken by his third uncle’s scolding and hurriedly explained, “No, third uncle, I wasn’t replying to you. I really saw a ghost.”

“I just saw a spectacular mirage on the sea, and I also found a suitcase on the sea. Although I’m not sure if it’s from the Seidel, it might be the tourists.”

“But who knew that when I turned to talk to you just now, the mirage and the suitcase were all gone. It’s so strange.”

Liu Xian explained as he took out his phone.

There was a camera on his telescope so he could record what he saw and upload it directly to his mobile phone through the local area network. It was a habit Liu Xian had developed over the years.

This was because it was easier to capture beautiful photos and videos and post them on the internet to gain more attention.

“Brat, what mirage is there? Do you think your third uncle is blind?” His third uncle cursed as he strode out of the cockpit and onto the deck.

He had an ordinary appearance and looked to be in his forties. He was tall and burly. Because he lived on the sea all year round, his skin was dark as if it was cast from bronze. His muscles reflected a metallic luster under the sun and were full of strength.

Liu Xian didn’t reply. Instead, he opened the app and found the video he had just taken.

It was only a five seconds of footage, but the phone screen clearly showed the scene he had just seen, the spectacular mirage, and the suitcase slowly floating along with the ocean current.

At this point, Liu Xian’s pupils contracted, and his mind went blank.

This matter was even weirder.

If the scene he had just seen was not an illusion, then what was going on?

How could such a spectacular mirage disappear into thin air?

Where did the suitcase that was floating on the sea go?

While he was in a daze, his third uncle had already strode over to Liu Xian.

He glanced at Liu Xian’s phone replaying the scene and was stunned. There really was a magnificent mirage and a red suitcase floating on the sea.

Seeing the interface of the software, the third uncle knew that Liu Xian was not lying. He was also using the same software, and it was not the first time he had seen Liu Xian’s video through the telescope. Sometimes, as a joke, he would appear on camera naked to show off his handsome figure and powerful muscles and then enjoy the praise in the comments section.

“You’re not lying.” The third uncle said, looking at the video on the screen, feeling dumbfounded.

He raised his head to look at the vast sea, but no mirage or suitcase was in front of him. However, the image captured by the camera could not be fake.

That meant one thing!

His third uncle’s expression instantly became extremely serious as he picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered.

“Attention, attention, cast the anchor immediately. Don’t turn off the engine. Prepare to resist the current and keep the ship in this position. Don’t move. Put down the small yacht.”

“Received.”

A response came from the walkie-talkie, and then the fishing boat anchored. The engine continued to start, controlling the direction and speed to resist the current so that the fishing boat could be stable in this area.

Liu Xian also came back to his senses.

However, before he could ask, his third uncle had already pulled him by the arm to the small yacht that was slowly being put down.

On the yacht, the third uncle looked at the route they had just passed with a burning gaze. He said in an irrepressible excitement, “You little brat, you’re really something. If I’m not wrong, we’re going to be rich this time.”

Liu Xian steered the yacht slowly. Hearing his third uncle’s words, he was surprised, “Third uncle, do you know what’s going on?”

The third uncle’s eyes were fixed on the surrounding sea, looking for the mirage that had just appeared as he explained, “Have you ever heard of the legend of Devil’s Water? ”

Liu Xian was stunned for a few seconds and shook his head.

He had never heard of the legend of Devil’s Water.

“It’s an ancient local legend,” the third uncle explained.

“It’s said there’s a lost and mysterious island hidden in this sea. It’s the kingdom of the ancient sea god, Celia. If a mortal rashly barged into the kingdom, they would be cursed by the sea god and would never be able to return. This was why the nearby natives called it the Devil’s Water.”

“Third uncle, you don’t think that the scene I just took is the kingdom of the sea god, do you?” Liu Xian asked in astonishment.

How could there be a sea god in this world? it must be just a legend from a nearby tribe.

His third uncle did not answer.

Of course, he didn’t believe in the so-called sea god’s kingdom, but after traveling for decades, it wasn’t the first time he’d seen such strange things.

Many things in this world were not without reason.

Myths were also the interpretation of ancient events by the ancient people. It was only because people at that time had limited knowledge that they gradually became seemingly absurd myths and legends.

The yacht followed the route just now for about three to four hundred meters when the scenery suddenly changed.

In the distance, where the sea and sky should have been one color, thick clouds covered the boundless sea as if a sea of clouds had blocked out the sun!

An endless continent lay across the thick sea of clouds. The mountains rose and fell like dragons lying on the vast land, ferocious and domineering.

The uncle and nephew looked at the mirage-like illusion in the distance, both revealing shock, and joy.

It was too spectacular.

With that thought in mind, another idea emerged in the minds of the two.

The legendary sea god’s kingdom!

The Lost Sea!

This must be the sea god’s kingdom of the local myths and legends. Otherwise, there was no way to explain what he had seen.

The vast land might not be a mirage at all, but a real continent!
