Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 1: New beginning

　　 The night is heavy.

　　 In the slightly cramped room, the teenager lying on the bed was sweating profusely, and his eyes rolled under his closed eyelids. Even his face was distorted, but he could not wake up.

　　 Obviously his dream tonight is not wonderful, or it is more appropriate to call it a nightmare.

　　 "Hoo--!"

　　 suddenly sat up from the bed, the young man who had just gotten rid of the nightmare had a terrible expression, his chest rising and falling like a bellows and panting violently. He hugged his head silently with his hands, and it took a while to recover from the day-to-day horror.

　　Don't want to sleep anymore, Aiwen got up and got out of bed in his linen pajamas, poured himself a glass of cold water, standing in front of the window with dim eyes.

　　 "Had that nightmare again."

　　 Ivan Garrett, his identity is after the fallen aristocracy, or more accurately, after the fallen aristocracy. Since the night of blood and fire three years ago, the honor, wealth and even family members have been far away from this young man.

　　As the traditional fiefdom noble of the island country Ilya Kingdom, the Galliot family, who holds the title of baron, was also prominent in those days.

The starting point of the 　　 family is legendary. As one of the pioneers who opened the great nautical era, the civilian explorer Galliot drove his expedition ship to overcome the reefs, storms, and ferocious sea beasts through the treasure sea, and took the lead in exploring the shortest Time to reach the new route of the southern continent safely.

The opening of 　　 new shipping routes allowed the abundant precious metals, spices, agricultural products, and raw materials in the southern continent to enrich the kingdom endlessly, and enabled Ilya, who was at the bottom of the Tulip Alliance at that time, to gain a lot of benefits and leap to become a regional power.

　　 With this feat, the explorer Galliot was canonized as a fief baron by the Ilya royal family, and he became a fief aristocrat from an unnamed commoner, and added the name "The Galliot family" to the aristocratic lineage of the kingdom of Ilya. "'S new member.

　　Unfortunately, this great explorer, great navigator’s ability to manage the territory is far from his navigating exploration ability. The Garriott family under his leadership has not only failed to shine in the kingdom of Ilya, but has been on the decline.

　　 And since him, the Barons of Galliot are worthy of his descendants, all of them are adventurers in the bones, thinking all day to take advantage of the great sea age that has just begun, but there is no one. I want to run my own territory well.

　　How can this activity of ocean exploration be affordable for ordinary people? The huge benefits are naturally accompanied by huge risks. Family wealth and even land have gradually filled the bottomless pit of ocean exploration!

　　Ocean exploration is not only about ideals and persistence, but also strength and luck. This family seemed to have exhausted all its luck in the battle of the rise. Since then, there has not been an adventure that can bring the glory and wealth to this family enough to stand up.

　　 has only gone through eight generations of Baron Galliot for more than a hundred years, and the fief that was originally equivalent to at least forty knights has only one remote town, Blackstone Town. If Ilya didn't have the restrictions on the title and title, it would be difficult to retain the title of this short baron.

　　In this generation, the entire Garriott family has only one father who bears the name of a baron, and lives with two siblings who lost their mothers in their childhood. The only aristocratic ostentation is probably the only old butler who still takes care of himself, Leo, even if he is in despair.

　　 Maybe the gods in the sky can't stand it anymore, when they are about to run out of water, things have turned for the better.

　　 A huge-scale rich iron ore was discovered underground in Heishi Town! You can imagine how ecstatic they were at that time.

　　 It’s just that it’s too early to be happy.

　　 Even in legal terms, even the king cannot deny the ownership of the Garriott family to this iron ore, but the extremely weakened Garriott family simply does not have enough force and assistance to preserve the wealth that has fallen from the sky.

　　As long as they are willing to use their brains, there are always loopholes in the rules established by mankind, not to mention the price paid is negligible.

　　 In the kingdom of Ilya at this time, the emerging commercial aristocracy has risen strongly, the personal liberation movement has intensified, and the power of the traditional fiefdom aristocracy and even the king is not as good as before.

　　 A new change is brewing. Who are allies and enemies in this storm, even the most veteran politician can hardly say.

　　 The large groups of hungry hyenas are already eyeing the lonely Galliot. Among them are emerging aristocrats, but there are also "old friends" from the previous family.

　　The ferocious predators are all waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity that will not make other opponents nervous.

　　 So, after the father of the family, Furman Galliot, died suddenly due to old injuries and heavy pressure during his early expeditions.

　　 Taking advantage of the young age of Alvin and his sister, the title temporarily vacant. The town of Blackstone, which had lost its legal protection, was breached by a group of well-equipped "bandits" like lightning.

The last foundation of the 　　 family is destroyed!

The changes after 　　 were so natural that the "robbers" who dared to attack the noble territory were wiped out by the enthusiastic nobles. I don't know what kind of transaction went through behind the scenes, and the iron ore fell into the hands of this "good-hearted man", who is known as the escrow of the Galliot family.

　　 As for the search for the two legal heirs of the Garriott family who disappeared in this incident: Anita Garriott and Irvine Garriott, there is no mention of them tacitly.

　　 In fact, by this time, the overall situation has been decided, and no one cares about their life and death anymore.

　　 Ivan drank the water in the glass in one sip, and suppressed the thoughts surging in his heart. In fact, even if the family's property was ten times more, it would not be enough for Ivan to worry about him. It was his nightmare that made him escape from birth, but his sister Anita, who was three years older than him, disappeared in that turmoil.

　　 did not dare to expose the old butler who was looking for the eldest lady, and took the only remaining Evan to escape from Ilya, and went to Leopold, a small seaside city in the Kingdom of Falettis, which belongs to the Tulip Alliance.

　　Leo, the old butler, threw away most of the items on the two of them that might expose themselves, and used the last wealth and knowledge of herbal medicine in their youth to open a pharmacy and settled down in a small town to live ordinary life until today. .

　　 But just the day before yesterday~IndoMTL.com~ The old butler, who was seriously injured on the night of the escape and left the root of the disease, couldn't hold it anymore, grabbing Aiwen's hand and slowly closing his eyes.

　　The last relative passed away, and the overwhelmed Aiwen cried out and fainted.

　　 When he woke up again, the consciousness of the traverser who had been silent in the boy's body for thirteen years was revived, and he merged with the superficial personality of Aiwen and became one again.

　　Different from other soul wearers driving on the road and lacking a sense of substitution for the experience of the predecessor, Aiwen is the traverser and the traverser is Aiwen, and Aiwen’s experience is actually his own experience.

　　 It was only because the body was too weak in the past to bear the huge soul and memory of adults. This is the difference between the surface personality Ivan and the silent consciousness passing through the object.

　　The two-in-one Aiwen will not be as weak as a boy once, and will no longer be afraid of being alone or lost in the future. A strong enough heart and a broad enough experience allow him to have a clear understanding of what he wants and where his path is.

　　 "I will live on!"

　　 The handsome young man with brown hair, dark eyes and fair skin looked at his shadow on the window, and said to himself softly.

　　 At this time, the night sky outside the window is still lit by stars, and the seaside town named Leopold has regained consciousness and is gradually busy.

　　 There are many Gothic buildings dominated by black tones. The gas lamps along the street sprinkle warm yellow lights, and the streets are filled with steam wafting. It is a prosperous Victorian port city.

　　The era of great navigation has opened for two hundred years, and the navigation industry and ocean trade have become an important part of this country’s assets. The invention of the steam engine seems to have added a powerful engine to this world, and everything is accelerating towards a better future.

　　 Well, at least on the surface it looks like that, isn’t it?
