"Were they shipwrecked?"

"That should be the case, but the weather was indeed calm during that period, with only occasional strong winds and waves. None of the sailors who went out that day came back." Illya said.

Sean remembered that Frelia's investigation report at the time said that those deep divers came from the farther southern sea, probably to adapt to living in the swamps.

Although Sean has not found any other humans with the Deep One label until now, they probably all went into hiding after that incident, but they may still exist somewhere in the world.

"So what happened in the end?"

"Over the next few days, many people went looking for it but couldn't find it. However, they did see the wreckage of a ship on the sea. At that time, many fishermen at sea said that an evil spirit in the sea had taken their lives. They then held several sacrificial ceremonies, threw a lot of food into the sea, and closed fishing for over half a month."

Illya said slowly.

Sean listened intently, but his mind kept thinking about the Tacoma incident...

During that period, I was unable to participate in high-level meetings, and I could only learn about all the investigation results from Frelia. However, she later went back with me, so she did not participate in the final investigation.

"What's the name of the evil god you're talking about?"

"How can the evil god have a name?"

"If there is no name, what will people be afraid of, right?" said Sean.

The names of those ancient gods may not be correct, but humans will give them appropriate names, such as Yog-Sothoth.

Every time I pronounce this name, I find it very difficult. Even my self-consciousness is suppressing myself from saying this name. Once I say it, it will bring unimaginable consequences.

"I'm not sure, it seems to be called all sorts of things... I hear the guests occasionally talk about these things."

"It seems there's a name called the Ancient Cthulhu...Is that how it's pronounced?" Illya said with an accent that even she herself found awkward.

"What else?"

Sean asked again.

Illya thought for a moment. "There are many things happening on the sea. I heard a story like this when I was a child. It happened in the southern continent. The area east of the southern continent is a world of ice and snow. Few people live there, and most of them are in the outer areas. The temperature drops as you move towards the center..."

"No one lives in that kind of place in the ice and snow, but it has become a paradise for adventurers, and many navy ships will go there."

Illya told Sean some stories about the southern continent.

The Amansha region, Zambutal and Adak regions form the northern continental plate. To the south is the sea, and further south of the sea is another continent. The Mediterranean Sea in between is actually not far away. Anyway, there are exchanges between countries and cities near the sea.

The story Illya tells is about the Royal Navy of a southern continental country's polar expedition, the frozen sea, the unknown land, the kind of place that tests human nature.

"In the end, none of them came back. It was said that they were taken away by some evil god."

"Evil God?" Sean moved closer and listened carefully.

"Yes... for example, a certain evil giant shark... hahahaha..." He gestured with his hands and suddenly covered his mouth and laughed.

"Are you too boring?"

"Still laughing..."

"Hahaha... I won't laugh anymore... ha... I'm sorry, Your Highness..." He took a deep breath and calmed down.

"I didn't expect Your Highness to be so interested in these stories. Many of them are told by guests to deceive young girls. Sailors are like that, fickle and promiscuous."

Sean realized that Illya was trying to fool him, so he pretended to be angry and told her to go back to work.

"By the way, go and prepare a set of casual clothes for me." He suddenly called the other person.

"Your Highness is going out?"

"I can't stay in the palace forever..."

The meeting between the king and his ministers in Adak was not required to be held every day. There would be a day of rest after a few consecutive days. At that time, Sean wanted to go out for a walk and take a look. He had never seen what the city looked like when he came to Jagundu.

"Your Highness, please take me with you." Illya said excitedly.

But Sean didn't answer, just looked at the other person coldly.

"I won't make His Royal Highness angry again."

angry?

This makes me seem stingy.

"Go prepare two sets."

"Yeah~Okay, thank you, Your Highness." He left with a smile.

Although the story told by the other party was not credible, Sean did remember the maritime accident and the name, Cthulhu... Cthulhu... He had heard the octopus man Weisman mutter this name.

It seems that it really exists!

He walked into the study and began to write this down in his magic book notebook...

Sean classified the records about the ancient gods and recorded them according to the stories he heard in various places, so that he could find evidence when he discovered them in the future.

………………

In the next few days, Sean continued to handle state affairs with the Sun King and his two younger brothers and sisters.

But most of the time Sean just listened and rarely expressed his opinions... After all, he didn't know much about this country, and it would take at least half a year before he had a chance to speak.

The Sun King also classified some country-related information for his own reading. The Adak region is not even as large as Zambutal. Many countries here have their own customs and habits, which need to be slowly understood.
