If he wanted to find the hidden story in this ship, he had to clear it out.

Therefore, Luo Xiaobai and Li Luoluo played a huge role.

Luo Xiaobai controlled the spiritual plants to clean up, while Li Luoluo used worms to clean up. It seemed that manipulators had a unique talent in certain matters, such as cleaning.

A moment later.

Han Fei found the main cabin inside the hull. This surprised him. This was different from the layout of the fishing boat. The place where Han Fei was now could be called the control room, and below it was the lounge.

Han Fei's eyelids twitched when he saw the rudder.

Han Fei passed through the cabin and entered the lounge.

A moment later, he easily found a jade box in a sealed cupboard. Inside the box was a logbook.

When he saw the logbook, Han Fei immediately grinned. Indeed, humans were more like navigators in the past, not like now when fishing boats became tools for travel.

The logbook was a necessity for a captain. This box had probably been opened by a former student of the Thug Academy.

He must leave this diary here because of the habits of the Thug Academy. When future students had the ability, they could naturally come and check it themselves.

Han Fei took out the box and everyone immediately surrounded him.

Zhang Xuanyu asked in surprise, "What's this?"

Han Fei smiled. "A logbook."

Jiuyin Ling asked in surprise, "What's a logbook?"

Considering the requirements of Jiuyin Ling's cultivation technique, Han Fei explained, "In ancient times, the sea wasn't all. There were continents. Some humans needed to explore the sea through large ships. Back then, there might not have been any flying fishing boats. Therefore, the ship we found was very different from ordinary fishing boats. Such a large ship needed a captain. To record everything on the journey for reference, the captain needed to make a daily record of the voyage. For example, the captain could record the location of some special reefs, which was equivalent to a map. It was also used to record the sailing situation every day. This logbook was equivalent to a memo. If an accident happened to the ship, when people found it thousands of years later, they would know what happened to it. Well, in fact, the logbook itself is an interesting record with many stories."

What Han Fei said made the others speechless. Was it so complicated for ancient people to travel by boat? Shouldn't it be mainly fishing?

With that said, Han Fei flipped open the fish skin map that wrapped the logbook. On it was a map of the route and a drawing of the harbor. However, this thing was of no value now. This was because all the places had been submerged, so the map was useless.

Han Fei threw the nautical chart away, but Luo Xiaobai caught it. "Don't throw it away."

Han Fei didn't pay much attention to it, but he saw that the name of the ship was written on the sailing day: "Hope Exploration Records."

He flipped to the first page.

There were only several lines of words on it. It was the captain's note, signed by Lin Cang, who was likely the captain of the Hope.

Han Fei flipped open the notebook and saw:

Year 13822, Day 17 of the Sun's Chronicles, the Hope set off.

This was the title. The text was as follows.

In just ten years, tsunamis erupted everywhere, and countless sea creatures swept through the safe sea. This wasn't the first time in history, but this time, it was extremely serious.

Today, more than half of Yu City's land has been seized. The sea demons have attacked and the cities are in a fierce battle. The city governor ordered me to head to Boulder City to request reinforcements as the captain of the Hope.

I don't know if there's any hope for Hope… many ships have already been sent out , but none of them have returned. Perhaps… No matter what, I'm now the hope. I shoulder the hope.

That was all for the first page of the logbook.

Han Fei turned to the next page.

On the second page of the logbook, it wrote the Day 21 of the Sun's Chronicles. Han Fei wasn't sure what the Sun's Chronicles was. It was probably a calendar.

Lin Cang directly wrote:

"The current sea is too terrifying. We've encountered the greatest blow in history. Nearly half of the strong masters on the ship perished during a huge fish tide, and three law-enforcers perished.

I don't know how to proceed? I'm certain of one thing. We have encountered the legendary sea race. There are merfolk, shrimp soldiers, crab generals, demon snakes, clam girls… Legend has it that these creatures have been destroyed by the gods, but it seems that the gods have deceived us. The enemies facing Yu City aren't just ordinary sea demons. We might be facing countless races that should have lived in the Endless Deep Sea.

Thankfully, I'm already an Explorer. I saved Hope, but tomorrow, I don't know…

After reading the second page,

Everyone's eyes widened.

Luo Xiaobai asked, "Gods?"

Li Luoluo said in surprise, "What kind of existence is a god? Is it a realm above the king level?"

Jiuyin Ling asked curiously, "What kind of creature are shrimp soldiers and crab generals? What kind of creatures are demon snakes and clam girls?"

Han Fei and the others looked at each other in surprise. Could this be related to the Age of Gods that Old Bai had mentioned?

Han Fei said, "Who are these so-called gods? None of us know. However, these so-called shrimp soldiers, crab generals, and other creatures might be creatures beyond our knowledge. Isn't it said that there are other creatures in the Infinite Ocean beyond us? Perhaps there are other creatures in that distant sea."

Han Fei didn't explain much. He continued to flip through two pages, both of which described the war. What kind of danger and strange things did they encounter today…

It wasn't until the fifth page that Han Fei and the others noticed.

Day 27 of the Sun's Chronicles. It couldn't be stopped.

Upon seeing the words "cannot be stopped," Han Fei and the others were slightly moved.

One could imagine a scene that even an Explorer couldn't withstand.

When the Hope set off, there would definitely be many experts accompanying it. However, this couldn't withstand the daily deaths!

The logbook recorded:

This wasn't an ordinary crisis. This was an unprecedented crisis.

In the endless sea, there will definitely be a new god rising. I saw a scene that I will never forget for the rest of my life. Thousands of living beings are awakening and transforming into demons. Their goal isn't just to target Yu City. I estimate that the situation in Boulder City isn't much better.

The other party has three strong masters at the Spirit Breaking Dao Seeking realm guarding them. I finally understand why the strongest master in Yu City has disappeared for no reason.

From what I can tell, he didn't disappear but was killed by a super strong sea demon. Yu City might be destroyed.

After writing this line, I feel I might die in battle in the vast sea.

If the latter could see Hope's logbook, remember to inform humanity and find another way. Find the legendary place. Perhaps humanity still had hope.

Signed by: Lin Cang.

Han Fei hurriedly flipped to the back, but as recorded in the logbook, after writing this page, Lin Cang went to fight and probably died.

Hope's request for help ultimately failed.

Le Renkuang couldn't help but ask curiously, "Wasn't he already an explorer? Why didn't he just fly over, but walk across the sea?"

Han Fei thought for a moment and said, "Don't forget that there are also strong masters among the sea demons. If he can fly, do you think Lin Cang won't?"

Luo Xiaobai said, "There's another possibility. This Lin Cang isn't very strong among the explorers. If the two places are too far apart, even explorers probably can't keep flying, right?"

Han Fei shook his head. "That's unlikely. Explorers should be able to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Besides, in that case, wouldn't it be better to just teleport there directly? Why would there be a need to sail there? Since it can't be done, it means that these methods were useless or destroyed."

Luo Xiaobai said, "Let's keep looking and see if there's anything else."

Han Fei thought for a moment. The most valuable on the ship was probably the logbook.

Han Fei stopped searching, but before long, Jiuyin Ling pulled out a small box and ran to Han Fei.

Han Fei's eyelids twitched. Huh? This box is well-preserved.

Everyone gathered around again.

However, as soon as the box was opened, Han Fei saw shells, crab pincers, a transparent glass, and a few metal objects scattered inside. He immediately understood what they were.

Han Fei said with a smile, "This is just a simple storage box. I'm guessing it's a crew member who wants to bring some gifts back for his children. Therefore, they put all kinds of random toys here. As for why they weren't stored in the Sea Swallowing Seashells, it's probably because these things are very common and worthless. Well, it's also possible that the Sea Swallowing Seashells are very expensive and this crew member can't afford them."

Jiuyin Ling blinked. It seemed that she hadn't found anything useful!

After a while, no one discovered anything special. There was nothing to decipher about the decorative patterns.

Therefore, Han Fei said, "Alright, let's go out! To the next ruin."
