Chapter 1714 Sailor’s Diary
Lin Jiu opened the notebook and found that there was still writing on it. There were only about five pages of notes left inside, but the writing on it was still relatively clear. It could be seen that it was recorded in the Common Language of the Void.
[Diary of a sailor on the Morrison, October 30, the weather was fine.
We have been docked at Rusty Anchor Port for three days, and we really want to leave this hellish place as soon as possible. But who said we were a smuggling ship? Our goods can only be sold on the black market here. I have long heard that Rusty Anchor Port is a place where gangsters prey on gangsters. Yesterday, the Bloodfire Gang and the Water Ghost Gang fought at the dock and hacked to death the cook and a sailor who were watching the fun on our ship. The captain had to temporarily recruit two guys on the dock to fill their vacancies.
The new cook looked quite slovenly and had an unpleasant smell of meat. As soon as he got on board, he offered a nanmu idol to the kitchen. The thing looked quite weird, with a big belly, four arms, and a big hole in its belly. It looked like it had a wide mouth, exuding an evil aura. Rusty Anchor Harbor is a mixed place. There are many pagans, and I don’t know what kind of god this cook is serving. The new sailor looks quite smart. As soon as he got on the boat, he showed off the emerald on his thumb to us. He even told us that he had snatched it when he was a pirate. 】
[Diary of a sailor on the Morrison, October 18, the weather was cloudy. Today is the second day of return, so we are far away from that ghost place. But God was not kind to me. At noon, the sea in front of me became foggy. The captain didn't know what evil was possessed. He listened to the new cook's nonsense and insisted on sailing the ship into the heavy fog.
Anyone who makes a living at sea knows that it is not a good thing to sail a boat into fog. But the new cook is pretty good at it, and the broth he stews is so fragrant.
By the way, when I got up to pee last night, I passed by the kitchen and saw Chef Lu mumbling something in front of the statue. I don’t know if it was because I was dazzled or because I was still asleep, but I seemed to see the big mouth on the belly of that thing grinning at me. , I was so scared that I almost peed in my crotch. I told Jason about this and he laughed at me for being crazy.
Jason is the new sailor, and he still tells me about his past experience as a pirate every day. I guess this guy is bragging. Last time, he said that the jade ring on his thumb was stolen. Today, he said that he got it from the boudoir of a noble lady in Kent County. 】
[Diary of a sailor on the Morrison, September 12, the weather was cloudy.
What a hell! This heavy fog has not lifted for four days. I have never encountered such a situation before. We were completely disoriented in the heavy fog, and what was even worse was that the compass on the ship was malfunctioning. I remember hearing an old sailor say before that there is a place on the sea called the Triangle of Death. All ships that enter that sea area never return. Could it be that we have encountered this strange thing? 】

We've been lost in this damn fog for who knows how long. It's so dark in the fog that I can't tell the difference between day and night. The food on the ship had been exhausted a few days ago, and we had eaten all the rats in the cabin.
The sea was lifeless, and not even a fish could be seen. Jason was the first to faint from hunger. He was already very thin, and now he was even more skinny from hunger. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to survive for a few more days. But even if he fainted from hunger, this guy still kept his precious thumb ring tightly in his hand, for fear that someone would take the opportunity to steal it. I think he is overthinking it, and that thing is inedible. 】

I smelled the smell of meat, coming from the kitchen. I staggered to the kitchen and saw the cook entertaining the captain, first mate and other sailors. He scooped out bowls of hot soup from the cauldron. Share it with them. The cook handed me a bowl of broth with a smile on his face. I drank it without thinking about where the meat came from. I'm already starving. Let's fill my stomach first.
When the second bowl was about to reach the bottom, I felt something hard stuck in my throat. I thought it was a bone, so I spit it out into the bowl, and it turned out to be an emerald green thumb...]

The broth has become thinner and thinner these days, after all, there are so many crew members on the ship and so many mouths. I found that the cook has been secretly staring at me with an unkind look in the past few days. I know what he's planning, I have to strike first! 】

I took advantage of the fact that the cook was not in the kitchen, sneaked into the kitchen, and hid behind the stove to ambush him. The guy reacted quickly and counterattacked with the serrated meat cleaver. Fortunately, I was able to dodge quickly, and the meat cleaver only made a small gash in my belly. I grabbed the knife and it severed his artery.
Before he died, the guy struggled to crawl towards the statue and wailed: "Why me? I sacrificed so many people for you? Save me! Great faceless god of gluttony, don't abandon me !”
Poor guy, his gods can't save him!
There is meat to eat again today...]

I'm the only one left on this boat. I sat on the blood-stained floor of the kitchen, and there was an unpleasant stench from my stomach. Ever since I was stabbed by the cook, the wound on my stomach had been rotting and festering. I felt something staring at me. I turned my head and looked at the statue. I swear I saw it correctly. Its big mouth was slowly opening and smiling at me.
Then I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen, by the gods! My belly was also slowly splitting along the wound. I saw two rows of sharp teeth growing out of the edge of the crack, and a greedy tongue sticking out of the crack!

I'm hungry ~ I want meat ~ fresh meat...]

Although there are not many pages in the notes, the content is still very rich. There is a high probability that it is Brescia's note. Before it became like this, Brescia was a sailor on the Morrison. The content of this note explains the entire process of how he became what he is now.
There seems to be a lot of content in this notebook, but in fact it is easy to extract the main line. The story is that the Morrison, where Brescia was located, recruited a cook who believed in the ancient god, and led the wolf into the house, which led to the death of the entire ship. In the end, Brescia was left to "live" and became a monster infected by the ancient god's breath.
Among these contents, what Lin Jiu paid more attention to was that the "God of Gluttony" mentioned by the cook before his death was the name of that ancient god. What is worth noting is that the cook said before his death that he seemed to have been given up, and Brescia's counterattack may also be under the control of the God of Gluttony.
Another point is the time record in this diary. It can be seen that the environment in some of the later content is in the dark sea of death, and it is impossible to judge the passage of time. However, it can be seen that there are confusing errors in the time record at the beginning of the diary. It can be seen that Brescia's cognition has been affected since the cook brought the statue of the God of Gluttony to the ship.
That idol definitely had such an ability, otherwise the captain would not have casually followed a cook's advice and sailed the Morrison into the Sea of Death.
