The seventeenth day of the Storm Moon, 1637 AD, was not a special day for the people of Innsmouth.

This day is neither a festival nor any special activities. Everyone is waiting for the arrival of a new day in their sleep.

But this day was destined not to be so ordinary, because everyone was woken up by a loud noise, and then someone informed them that David Hasson was dead and Baron Fokke was back, and he was going to completely take over the whole world.

It's Innsmouth, let everyone gather at the pier.

While the whole Innsmouth was in a state of panic, Li Jiu was browsing David Hazen's vault.

After the door was blown open by explosives, it took a while for the smoke and dust to disperse before we could see clearly what was inside.

This is a huge vault about the same size as David Hasson's office. Anyway, it is many times stronger than the secret room under Li Jiu's study.

There are also oil lamps of unknown design on the wall. Once the door is blown open, they light up, illuminating every detail of the entire vault.

The main components of the vault are three large display racks and a pile of wine barrels.

When he saw the wine barrel, Li Jiu was a little surprised for the first time. He was still looking forward to whether there would be the Merlin red wine from the Edward III period that he needed. If there was, he could unlock the secret of the wine glass.

.

As a result, I scanned around with the Eye of Insight. No, those wines are basically rum produced in recent years. The farthest barrel is the Bodley red wine produced thirty years ago. Eye of Insight

It was shown that it could be sold on the black market for hundreds of gold pounds.

Facts have proved that David Hazen, a former pirate member far away in the West Sea, no matter how arty he is and pursues a high-society life, he still has no background.

Li Jiu could only turn his attention to the three display racks. The items placed on the three display racks were well organized and in clear categories. From this, it can be seen that David still has a way of doing things.

The first display rack is a pile of gold bars, gold pounds, pearls, gems, etc., the most eye-catching and least explorable. Li Jiu made a rough estimate, and it would cost about 6,000 if they were all converted into gold pounds.

It seemed like a lot, but it wasn't very rich. It was not as good as that old guy Jeffrey. He just threw away his pocket money and it was 2,000. Thinking of this, Li Jiu got angry.

The second display rack displayed weapons, including various Fisher swords, flintlock muskets, knife oils, etc. Li Jiu glanced at them. They were all unique in shape, in particularly good condition, and each one was perfectly proportioned.

It's a work of art, but unfortunately, there are no extraordinary items.

It’s hard to tell that David Hazen is also a weapons collector.

The third display shelf finally cheered up Li Jiu. The top items on it were some bottles and jars, and inside were some biological organs, plant leaves, etc. that seemed to be soaked in formalin.

.

Li Jiu used his insightful eye to take a look and found that they were all extraordinary materials used to prepare potions. These were truly good things that could not be exchanged for a thousand dollars.

He also discovered some of the ingredients for the chef's potion.

Further down, there was a very exquisite box. Li Jiu opened it and saw that there were some extremely beautiful black stones that looked like gems. They were shining brightly in the box.

Use the eye of insight to view and obtain information:

"Item name: Astral Stone

Type: Extraordinary Material

Rarity: Excellent

How to use: It must be used in conjunction with astral rituals and spells.

Evaluation: A stone produced from the mysterious star realm, containing powerful power of space and time, can be used as a medium for many mysterious rituals and magic. It is very rare and can only be obtained by sixth-level astral warlocks and above. It is priceless but not marketable."

Wai Ri, Ren Niu Wow?

Li Jiu counted and found that there were more than ten such stones in the box. This was not about making a fortune.

And he immediately stared at the folded parchment scroll next to him. When he opened it, he found that it contained the specific layout method of a ritual magic called the astral teleportation array. The details could be used in a small area after completion.

Deliver items.

After reading this, Li Jiu probably understood how David Hazen quickly obtained the news and the chart.

What a luxury.

He has to take back what he said before, that is, David Hasson still has some background. At least he has a good teacher.

Continuing to look down, on the last floor of the display shelf, there is a silver box alone, which is also locked with a lock.

Li Jiu was not polite, he took out his ambition and shot at the lock. The impact was so violent that it didn't destroy the whole box.

After waiting for the smoke to clear, Li Jiu picked up the still warm box and opened it. Inside was a silver key and a piece of parchment.

Another key?

Li Jiu seems to have a connection with keys these days. He got an ice key a few days ago and a silver key today.

But what's the mystery behind this silver key? Even the astral stone and the parchment recording the astral teleportation array are placed outside, but it is locked up?

Turning his gaze to the piece of parchment, Li Jiu took a look and found that it was actually a bank deposit slip, which read: On the seventeenth day of the frozen month in the year 1627 of the Great Navigation, the deposit box was opened at the Naso Pirates Union Bank.

The time limit is fifty years, and the payment amount is 100 gold pounds.

This key was actually used to open a bank safe.

Nassau Pirates United Bank sounds like a very unreliable thing. After all, pirates and banks are completely incompatible. Pirates have always been known for their cruelty and no bottom line, but banks need the most trust and rules to protect them.

Money is kept safe inside.

But it’s different when you add the word Nassau. Nassau is the most famous pirate gathering place, and is even nicknamed the United Kingdom of Pirates. This place has a large number of pirates gathering, and there is also the king of pirates, Jaeger.

Er. Nasuo's strong rule has made it a rare place in the West Sea with freedom and rules.

Among them, the Naso Pirate Union Bank is the ultimate display of this characteristic. It is famous for its absolute security and privacy. It is said that even the invincible fleet cannot break into its warehouse.

So not only pirates like to store money and valuables there, but even some nobles of the kingdom will go to Naso to handle business privately.

So, what would David Hazen store there and keep the key so closely?

Li Jiuzheng was thinking when Old John came back from outside: "Master, everyone is almost here. It's time for you to appear."

"Yeah." Li Jiu nodded, "Put these things away little by little."

It's time for him to ascend the throne as king.

King of Innsmaus.
