Chapter 503: An irrefutable condition

The two sculptures were sculpted to perfection, so much that even the detailed vein lines were distinct. The stone material used in crafting these sculptures were extremely strange, appearing like granite but also like basalt. In any case, its stone composition differed from all present surrounding constructions; emanating an unfathomable succulent realism. Furthermore, the war oxen was crafted with a material that was exquisitely white.

Noteworthily, large gems were embedded around the eyes of the war oxen and the elephant, where the rays of beams casted on Sheyan and Reef were probably from the two sculptures. The beams reflecting out from the two sculptures were truly bewitching and vividly threatening.

Jiejie then raised her hands and clapped. From behind, four servants heaved over a massive basket.

Under the illumination of the flickering torches, the reflection of glistening yellow golden coins dazzled the eyes of the onlookers. Every single guinea was roughly as heavy as 12 grams, while 80,000 guineas would have a weight of 800 kilograms. The strength of her four servants was indeed remarkable.

Sheyan sauntered forward to inspect briefly, before bluntly storing the 80,000 guineas into the party storage.

The gypsies present were immensely startled by the sudden disappearance of those guineas. Already exceedingly cautious against him, their vigilance tightened in the face of such an abnormality.

Sheyan wasn’t planning to renege on his debt, as he retrieved an enormous sargassum seed and handed it to Jiejie.

Upon receiving and carefully scrutinizing the seed, Jiejie nodded her head earnestly, before she surprisingly proceeded to place the seed onto the elephant-human sculpture behind.

Unsure if he was hallucinating, Sheyan observed as that seed astoundingly dissolved into the sculpture!

His pupils shrank but he acted as if he wasn’t fazed at all. Then, he issued.

”I’m delighted a successful deal is finally made. This represents the fundamental sincerity between both transacting parties. Since that is so, I’ve decided to sell you another seed ye gypsies requires.”

Listening to Sheyan’s words, Jiejie’s countenance immediately turned solemn.

”You’ve already displayed two Oceanic-eggs, could it be you possess more?”

Sheyan offered a humble smile. Blacksail had contributed a total of six enormous sargassum seeds to Sheyan. Right now, one had been sold while one was squished, leaving only four seeds remaining.

Sheyan then placed everything onto his palm; revealing their captivating brilliance.

An elated expression surfaced on Jiejie’s face and she immediately asked.

”Could it be you harvested those Oceanic-eggs yourself?”

Sheyan leaked out a rather impatient expression as he replied.

”Indeed. If not for those damnable vines hindering my path, I wouldn’t have bothered dealing with them.”

Jiejie inquired doubtfully.

”You actually managed to escape the clutches of the Chupacabra?”

Sheyan answered haughtily.

”I am the Third Mate of the Flying Dutchman. Compared to our Paul, that lil’ worm isn’t worth mentioning!”

At this moment, Jiejie finally exhibited an enlightened demeanor as she smiled wryly.

”So that is so. Our brave warriors can hunt the mightiest beast of the continents, but the mysteries and deadliness of the sea isn’t one we can vanquish. Lay out your terms, foreigner. I’ll take all four fruits, but please do not mistake our ferventness as weakness.”

Sheyan nipped a fruit and answered.

”I still need another 80,000 guineas.”

Jiejie immediately ordered for another 80,000 guineas to be transported over. It appears that these gypsies had truly reaped an immense fortune previously.

Sheyan then pinched the next fruit.

”Let’s treat this as remuneration for divining…...of course, only if you agree to it.”

Jiejie paused to ponder briefly before replying.

”Perhaps the world may believe that our divinity is omnipotent, but I must inform you, that is a misconception. You must first divulge the contents you require for divination, that will allow us to judge if we can divine for you. However, I cannot guarantee a definite result will appear.”

Sheyan stared into her eyes, before answering with one word at a time.

”I need the specific coordinates of a treasure island.”

”Treasure island? Which treasure island? Jiejie became rather perplexed.

”That treasure island! You should be informed, the treasure island that houses the treasures of the Black Pearl.” Sheyan fixated his gaze onto Jiejie. ”Are you capable of divining that?”

”Tch” Upon hearing his statement, Jiejie released an abrupt snort before waving her hand in disdain.

From the side, a red headscarf and red veil woman walked out. Unknown when, there was a deck of tarot cards floating highly above her head. Golden glitters permeated out when the set was splitted, and seemingly contained tarot cards within that were made of pure gold!

Following that, the red headscarf woman sat onto a nearby chair. Shaking the deck, a large card no.22 spilled out – the card of ‘major arcana’. Proceeding that, she begun reciting an incantation in a swift and muddled tone.

Then, she allowed Sheyan to draw a card from the deck, before she herself retrieved another card – no.56 ‘minor arcana’ card. Then, she allowed Sheyan to draw another 3 cards. Finally, a crystal ball entered the field. As Sheyan pressed his hand onto the crystal ball, the red veil woman started trembling entirely. Gradually, the figure of a treasure island took shape within the crystal ball; not a minute later, she announced the coordinates of the island!

Sheyan nodded slightly as he committed the coordinates to memory. Then, he tossed the enormous sargassum seed on his hand to Jiejie.

”I hope these coordinates are accurate.”

Jiejie arrogantly replied.

”The tarot cards are capable of making known the secrets of the cosmos, it is impossible for them to make mistakes. Instead, it is individuals blinded by treasures like you that should remain cautious. Knowing the coordinates is futile. The pirates of Barbossa’s crew aren’t living nor dead. They aren’t even afraid of Davy Jones. Once you infiltrate their treasure trove and pillage their treasures, they would certainly sense it! Besides within the caribbean sea, not a single ship can surpass the Black Pearl’s speed! It is impossible to escape their pursuit!”

”Those are matters for me to worry about.” Sheyan bowed courteously. ”Nevertheless, I am grateful for your advice.”

Jiejie released a hoarse laughter.

”This is because I wish to continue dealing more Oceanic-eggs from you the next year. A dead man tells no tales.”

Sheyan pinched another ‘Oceanic-egg, as he continued issuing his demands.

”I am aware of the extensive knowledge of the gypsies apart from their divination abilities. I have a diary in my possession, one with contents only accessible by deciphering a code. Perhaps, you can aid me in unravelling its contents?”

Jiejie nodded and replied.

”Then let me examine, what it is that you require deciphering.”

Sheyan then produced the ‘Diary of Morgan Fokke’, the one he was incapable of interpreting even till today.

When he pulled out the diary, Jiejie immediately stood up from her throne; her expression turning aghast. Guarding her back, the two ferocious sculptures had apparently transformed livelier with amplified malevolence, as though they were about to overcome the realms of time and space, and be rebirthed!

”Such diabolical vengeful grievances emanating from that diary!!! Such a frightening curse! The one who sealed it…...no! No human could seal such a thing. Such immense power, this isn’t something a measly human can attain!”

Jiejie then shook her head honestly and replied.

”My apologies, I will not unravel its contents for you. Although the oceanic-eggs are crucial to us…..to offend such a formidable existence for the sake of a single oceanic-egg, that is inconceivable!”

Sheyan laughed in response.

”If I haven’t misheard, you just mentioned; you will not unravel its contents, and not that it is impossible?”

Naturally, not wanting to decipher and being incapable of it were poles apart. The former indicates the reluctance although achievable, but the latter pertains to the question of capability.

Jiejie replied.

”Yes. Though the existence that sealed this diary is powerful, that existence hadn’t directly interacted with this diary. Instead, that existence employed a blood vessel to place a curse seal through bypassing the boundaries of space with tremendous spirit curse force. Hence, it isn’t impossible to unlock the seal.”

Sheyan remained silent. Instead, he exhibited two grains of Oceanic-eggs before her.

Nevertheless, Jiejie maintained her resolution by shaking her head.

Sheyan’s following gaze then revealed a trace of furtiveness within.

”The reason your people aren’t able to harvest these Oceanic-eggs, is due to the obstruction of the fiendish Chupacabra right? Its insatiable appetite has materialized as an avaricious indulgence in those mystical fruits. Truthfully speaking, it is hard to suppress that sinister sea beast and the only possibility of dealing with it, would be the titanic Kraken Paul. Yet even the impressive gypsies are incapable of swaying Davy Jones.”

Jiejie replied.

”You are correct, what are you trying to suggest?”

Sheyan then fished out the severed Chupacabra tail from his interspatial storage. Still dripping with blood, it smashed onto the floor.

”This is the tail of a Chupacabra. If you can acquire this tail, you can successfully invite an alchemist to concoct an ointment that emits the scent of a Chupacabra. Imagine smearing this ointment onto your bodies; the Chupacabra has exceedingly poor vision, and normally differentiates its foes through their scent. With this, harvesting Oceanic-eggs wouldn’t be a problem anymore. Of course, dangers will still remain, but your current state of passivity would be eliminated!”

As the proverb goes, give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Purchasing these Oceanic-eggs should ultimately be the last resort, while the best method would always be harvesting these mystical eggs personally.

Upon issuing his speech, the breathing of every single gypsy woman within the tent had seemingly grew heavier. Such an enticement, had already became an irrefutable condition!

A white headscarf gypsy diviner then interrupted out of nowhere.

”The authenticity of it must be determined.”
