The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 610: Captain Of The Stone. Celecia.

Chapter 610: Captain Of The Stone. Celecia.

The good news was that information was available on Celecia, also known as the “Captain of the Stone.”

However, that was a relatively reserved statement.

There was simply too much information exposed about her.

Rather than being a low-key transcender, it was more accurate to say that Celecia was a star or a legendary figure.

Her stories were available in children’s literature.

The most outrageous thing was that the books had been turned into a complete series!

The series was a set of eight fairy tale picture books. The latest book was released last month.

There were also novels centered around her as the main character and a plethora of scripts.

In this pre-Internet age, having this level of popularity was not easy. Even for “the s.h.i.+eld of Unfallen”, his reputation during his lifetime was only among the rich people who “need to hire security”, or the Wise and Digger with a wide range of intelligence sources.

It was usually after the death of a particular hero that writers and poets began to write many novels, plays, and poems for him. This process would take more than a decade. Afterward, establis.h.i.+ng this level of popularity would take a considerable period.

With this unusual popularity, Annan wondered if the occurrence was a particular requirement designated by her curse.

“It seems like a lot of information about ‘Captain of the Stone’ comes from a script.”

Annan browsed through the information Nefertari found from the infinite bookshelf and muttered thoughtfully, “Is there any special meaning to this?”

“To be precise, most of them are stage plays and musicals. That’s what’s trending among girls these days.”

When Nefertari said this, she coughed lightly and added in a low voice, “I heard it from a friend.”

I understand. I occasionally have such a friend.

The corners of Annan’s mouth rose slightly.

He could empathize with her.

Though calm and knowledgeable, Miss Nefertari was a young lady in her early 20’s.

It was expected for her to retain a youthful heart.

Annan’s reading speed was fast as he went through the information in the books quickly under an hour.

Although there were multiple genres, the main story of “Captain of the Stone” was similar.

It was traced back to the “captain’s origin”. As a n.o.ble lady from a foreign country, Celecia fled into the underground world after being hunted down. She acquired a s.h.i.+p through a wonderful adventure.

It was a ghost s.h.i.+p that could carry people freely through rock formations, air, and seawater without destroying anything.

The s.h.i.+p’s name was “Silver”.

In some investigations, the reports pointed out that the s.h.i.+p could be alive. It could be a curse vessel with awareness of danger.

Miss Celecia signed a contract with the s.h.i.+p and became the captain who would never leave “Silver”. In return, this s.h.i.+p could take her through all obstacles and wherever she wanted.

“Silver” could sail through any terrain as if it was merely a phantom, no matter whether it was rock formations that might collapse at any time, dangerous veins with metal ore, or lava.

“Silver” did not need Black Fire or Green Fire as a power source, nor would it need to consume the life energy like the legendary ghost s.h.i.+p. Every time it “stopped”, it would absorb the surrounding substances to repair or replenish the hull.

The excrement and waste on the s.h.i.+p would also be absorbed by “Silver”. Occasionally, after Celecia discovered a magical place, she would create an empty “air bubble” through Silver as a location marker.

Many diggers had dug bubbles. They knew that Celecia had been here and there could be valuables in that place.

Therefore, Celecia was known as “the Digger of Diggers”.

She occasionally strayed into natural mines.

Her adventures encompa.s.sed the monsters in the underground, deep layers of lava, isolated villages, murlocs in the deep sea… Except that she didn’t go to the above world, she went everywhere and met various people.

In many cases, these places were not places Celecia wanted to go.

Such a convenient s.h.i.+p attracted many people’s attention, and some people wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h it. However, Celecia was already a Gold Rank transcender.

She also had some loyal followers.

The followers enjoyed the free and fantasy-like adventures. They were willing to follow Celecia to explore places.

Some people wanted to hitch a ride. They usually wanted to go to a particular place or to find someone—for example, the younger brother who had been away from home for more than ten years because he wanted to become a Digger, the middle-aged man who disappeared while exploring the gathering place of lions and scorpions, the serial killer who escaped punishment, etc.

Celecia had a strange rule.

Whoever boarded the s.h.i.+p had to tell a story. The story of why he was seeking this person, this thing, or this place… A brand new journey could begin if the story were “one she hadn’t heard before” and satisfied her.

Otherwise, the person would be kicked off the s.h.i.+p.

Celecia had her poet on board the s.h.i.+p. The poet would record the stories the captain heard and everything during their journey. The stories would be written into long poems, which would be distributed to the cities where they stopped for supplies during the journey.

Celecia would not ask for money in the process.

Instead, many people were not seeking a specific destination but were drawn to Celecia.

Celecia had long pink-purple hair that was rare to come by. She had a doll-like exquisite appearance and a pet.i.te figure. She was a powerful Gold Rank transcended, rumored to be pretty young.

Some n.o.ble offspring were enchanted by her bewitching charm and boarded her s.h.i.+p in the places she pa.s.sed through. Among them were even wizarding families, transcended families, and a royal offspring from Denizoya… as well as a few young girls who fell in love with her.

This made her legend appear more enchanting while incurring negative rumors about her. As a result, she was also known as the “Enchanting Poppy.”

The Poppy was known to be a plant belonging to the Papaveraceae family, characterized by small flower sizes and delicate petals.

It was hard to tell if the alias was a compliment or slander.

Those, who had not boarded the s.h.i.+p, would never know what happened on the s.h.i.+p. The s.h.i.+p would not carry anyone except the crew and “pa.s.sengers”, making it even more mysterious.

Based on the long poems recited by the poets on board the s.h.i.+p and the scarce information about who boarded and disembarked, the creators unleashed their imagination, giving birth to various musicals, operas, and novels.

Typically, it revolved around a particular expedition as the main storyline, with the emotional conflicts among the well-known individuals on board serving as the primary dramatic tension in the plot.

It was the soap opera of this era.

The plot would continue…

“It sounds like a romantic story.” Annan muttered.

It was expected for Nefertari to indulge in it.

Unexpectedly, the screenwriters of the underground world produced quite some work.

Annan learned something from these slightly exaggerated scripts that put him in disbelief.

Although Annan didn’t know the reason, Celecia seemed like a catfish.

Her effort seemed to be paying off.

In an instant, the young man Annan saw in the Wolf’s Kiss nightmare appeared in his mind.

The one who was devoted and fanatical about Vladmir… An ordinary youth with light brown hair, scary white skin, and freckles on his face.

His cheeks were sunken, his back slightly hunched, and he appeared eccentric. Even in the presence of his colleagues, he would instinctively avoid their gaze. One could tell that he suffered from severe social anxiety without speaking to him.

However, for such a person…

Annan closed the book.

He was silent for a while with some self-doubt.

Are they the same person?
