Treasure Hunters, Sail the Blue Sea

Chapter 228 Information
When night comes again.

Alka and the others have already arrived at this place called Broken Town.

In the northeast corner of the town, there is an idle triangular house.

This area is the ruler of Broken Town, and it is specially designated as a place for outsiders to live when they come.

A house is a silver snake for a week.

This kind of rent, compared with the surrounding environment and the size of the house, if it is placed in the homeland, it is no different from robbery.

But here is the endless sea.

What Alka didn't expect was that even the people on this island would use silver snakes for transactions.

As the book says, almost all places use these three currencies for transactions, almost reaching the level of common currency.

Of course, this is talking about the leadership of the town.

For the residents of the town itself, it is more about bartering and unified distribution.

This can be regarded as some of Alka's gains in the small town during the day.

They rented a total of 4 rooms, enough for all of them to live in.

"Porolo, the two of us live in the biggest house." Alka said, looking at the house in front of him that was more than twice as tall as the surrounding ones.

This room costs two silver snakes for a week.

There is no way, the main reason is that Pororo's body size is much larger than that of normal humans.

It's like a little giant.

4 houses, the special large house is inhabited by Pororo and Arka.

Shadetti, Julia, and Martha lived in one room.

Jason, Simon, and Juanlu live in one room.

Four dolls live in one room.

Alka took a look, and found that this area was specially used for renting houses to outsiders.

But now there are only 4 of them here.

And perhaps considering that they acted together, the residents of the town thoughtfully built a bonfire in the open space in the center of their four houses.

At this time, there was a crackling sound of burning wood, and little sparks floated out.

After briefly looking at the room, Alka and Porolo came to sit by the campfire.

When sitting down, Pororo was far away, and moistened his skin with water.

Today's daytime is longer, so he hasn't been in contact with sea water for a while.

One after another, everyone packed up the temporary housing and sat down by the bonfire.

"Everyone separated today and spent most of the day wandering around this small town, did you gain anything?"

Alka looked at the crowd and asked.

After they were brought to Broken Town by Baishi's patrol team today, they were allowed to roam freely in the town.

As they said in their dreams, there is nothing strange about outsiders. As long as they don't disturb the residents here and don't cause conflicts, no one cares about them.

By the way, I also told them where to rent a house if they want to take a temporary rest here.

Alka thought that there would be such a thing as a hotel in their small town.

"The residents here all have magic power in their bodies, and their magic power has reached a minimum of one spiral."

Jason looked at the bonfire in front of him, fiddled with it twice and said.

However, Alka obtained this news yesterday in a dream, and briefly shared it with everyone.

Although he was still prepared, he was still slightly shocked.

Never in their life had they seen so many magical beings gathered together.

I only heard Jason continue to say: "Those people whose magic power is active in their bodies due to the surrounding high-magic environment are completely different from those who touch treasures and become touchers."

"These ordinary people become people with active magic power due to the environment, and the survival rate of newborns is not high.

Even though they have lived in such a high-magic environment for generations and their physique has already changed, the children they give birth to will not be born able to withstand the surge of magic power in their bodies.

The probability of neonatal death is not low, but the exact number is not known.

And in the subsequent growth, the damage caused by the magic power will make these children face certain dangers before the age of 5, and among these surviving children, some children with weaker constitutions will die of illness. "

When Jason finished speaking, everyone looked at him.

Ju Anlu scratched his head, a little confused.

"Did we really enter this town at the same time?"

Why does it feel like Jason has been in this town for a while?This is the news that can be obtained in such a short time?

Do not understand.

"Hmph, I haven't finished yet." Jason snorted airily.

"I found out that in this small town, I don't know if it's the leader or who, it must be the master of the treasure."

"Oh, why do you say that?" Alka asked curiously.

He intentionally asked in his dream, but no one told him, so he didn't know if anyone on the island had treasures.

"You said that the means for them to gain power is the tattoos on their bodies, right?" Jason looked at Alka and asked.

Alka nodded, this was indeed the news he had obtained in a dream, and he had told everyone about it before.

"But I found out today that the man named Baishi must be stronger than me, right?"

Julia next to him nodded and said, "He can give me a sense of danger, so he should be on the same level as me."

Well, that means he's around the helix six, maybe even a little bit higher.

Hearing Julia's answer, Jason clapped his hands: "Yes, he is very strong, but he has very few tattoos, only one."

"How do you know this?" Simon asked curiously beside him.

He was not long on the ship.

So in his impression, Jason was a living treasure on the ship, probably someone who used a gun to attack from a distance.

It gave people the impression that it was not very reliable, not only him, but Martha, who had just stayed on the ship for a few days, also felt the same way.

This even includes Juan Lu.

They didn't know that what Jason was really good at was collecting intelligence.

"I asked his subordinate, a man who just got a new tattoo a few days ago."

"That's what he told you?" Simon asked suspiciously.

He felt that things like this should be regarded as relatively confidential things, and no one would tell such things to an outsider.

Even for this small town, the foreign is not surprising.

But the necessary vigilance should not be absent, especially for these hunters patrolling the town.

Hearing this, Jason looked at him in surprise, came to his side and patted him and said, "My friend, he didn't know that he had told me, and I was just chatting with him."

Said and winked at Simon.

Understood, using some kind of rhetoric, the power of language?

Anyway, he felt that he definitely couldn't do it.

Jason continued to say: "I also know about other patrols, and most of the people in leadership positions here have few tattoos, but ordinary hunters have many tattoos.

The possibility of this is not low, but I can't fully guarantee it. "

"I also followed them around outside and saw them fighting."

"People with few tattoos obviously use the power of the spell, and people with many tattoos use the power of their tattoos."

"Those tattoos are obviously few. They control their own magic power very finely. Just like us, they can use magic power precisely to make their attacks stronger.

Those with a lot of tattoos can’t do it. They can only simply use the tattoos and simply integrate the magic power into the tattoos. If you want them to wrap the magic power on their hands and let them flow out and attach to the weapons, they can’t do it. "

Jason observed very carefully, including those old hunters who seemed to have a lot of experience, but they couldn't do the same.

This is obviously unreasonable, unless they are born with poor manipulation of magic.

This is a problem caused by hard conditions and cannot be compensated by experience.

"Then I walked around the town a few times, and I probably learned that those with few tattoos should be enlightened by treasures, and they are very powerful."

"As for those with a lot of tattoos, their mana control is very poor. Without exception, they are all ordinary hunters, because of the high magic environment, the mana in their bodies is active."

After listening to all of Jason's collection of information, Alka understood.

He was thinking before.

If the people in the boundless sea are all people with active magic power due to the environment, then wouldn't it be meaningless for a very important characteristic of treasures, the ability to enlighten people into touchers?
This will greatly reduce the importance of treasures, which is inevitable.

For some large forces, the number of people who may be able to enlighten is more important than the ability brought by the treasure itself at a certain moment.

But in "Land of Chasing Dreams", it can be known that treasures are still the core of a power, which is obviously not equal to what we know.

And now this is explained.

Ordinary people whose magic power is active due to the environment, although the magic power in their bodies can strengthen their physique, it is difficult for them to control the magic power in their bodies.

The magic power is difficult to control, so basically you have to say goodbye to using meditation to improve your strength, and you can only rely on natural improvement.

This is definitely much slower than the speed at which they improved in Homeland Sea.

In Homeland Sea, you can also control the magic power in your body, and spiral in the circuit to speed up the speed of absorbing magic power.

It is obviously impossible for ordinary people to do it here.

Although it is logically unreasonable, after all, how can the control ability of the active magic power be low since childhood, but it is true.

But from some information in the dream, we can know that as the number of tattoos on their bodies increases, their strength will naturally increase.

Obviously, in addition to giving them the power to use certain spells, tattoos can also increase the total amount of magic power in their bodies.

How to do it is obviously not what they are able to peek at now.

However, Alka still wanted to know the nature of these tattoos, so that he might be able to better depict and use spells on the dolls.

Alka felt that there was something in common between the two.

The residents of this island choose to use tattoos that can use spells to make them fight.

To make up for the gap with normal touches.

But this obviously has a limit.

But those who enlighten with treasures do not have such shortcomings.And because of the high magic environment, their strength improved very quickly.

Simple speculation.

Class divisions of town power.

Ordinary tattoo hunters are at the bottom of the powerful class, and experienced tattoo hunters can probably reach the middle class.

The Touchers are clearly the island's mid- and high-level power.

I just don't know how many contacts there are.

If you know the specific quantity, maybe you can calculate how many treasures they have.

Even in the dream, Alka couldn't calculate it completely.

Then Alka looked at the others.

Want to see if they have any information.

"Is the crab really delicious?" Hu Anlu thought for a while and replied awkwardly.

Obviously, not everyone has obtained useful information, especially among them, only Alka, Xiadati, and Jason had real treasure hunting experience before.

Xia Daiti thought for a while and said: "Because of the language barrier, it is too difficult to get some news from these people."

She also tried to collect some information, but the language barrier made it difficult for her to move forward.

In particular, the residents here have almost never left the island. Even if there are foreigners, no one has the patience to teach them foreign languages.

And obviously they are not in the mood to learn.

Hearing this, Jason added: "Yes, I also noticed this problem. Those who can speak Homeland Sea Language are basically hunters, and even among hunters, only a small half can speak it."

If it wasn't for the language barrier, Jason could still get more information.

"And these hunters who can speak the common language are very skilled in answering questions."

But at this time, Xia Daiti smiled and said, "Fortunately, Lucilia is with me, so I have gained something."

"The residents of this island actually have a fixed trading fleet, which will arrive about every 30 to 50 days and nights."

"A day and night are their means of timing, which can be simply understood as a day, but the time of each day is not equal, and the length of day and night varies."

Hearing this, Simon next to him nodded.

They wandered around the town for a long time today.

There are a total of 18 hours of daytime today, which is actually less than last night.

I only heard Xia Daiti continue to say: "Most of the materials they trade are living items that are not available on the island, and what they trade are materials from the island, especially spell materials such as the bones and fur of those prey.

The large number of Warcraft on this island seems to be a specialty of this island?a large amount"

She wasn't so sure either.

Alka nodded and continued: "The reason why there are so many strange monsters on this island is because of the activated ruins."

After all, he is the leader of this team, so he met the leader of this small town today.

Just by looking at it, Alka could feel the danger that person caused him.

The strength must have surpassed the second stage.

The leaders of the island also communicated with him, and these people were also very free and easy about his problems.

They knew that Alka was visiting the island for the first time.

"It's been 36 days and nights since the team arrived last time, and it may not be long before a ship for trading arrives." After finishing speaking, Xia Daiti said that's all his information.

Then Alka looked at the crowd, and facing Alka's gaze, everyone shook their heads slightly, indicating that they had not obtained any useful information.

Even if there was, it was said by the two before.

"Well then, tell me what I know."

"This island is dangerous, and you all know it before. If you want to go out and explore, you can't go to those dangerous ruins surrounded by them."

The surroundings of these ruins are patrolled and guarded. As for whether it is really dangerous, it is unknown.

"Don't use their language to talk nonsense outside, it's dangerous at night, it's best not to go out, that's about it."

Then Alka started to talk about the business: "After dawn, I will let the Voice of Dawn come directly to the port behind the town. The ships that arrive normally are basically parked there."

"Then tell us what we're going to do after dawn."

Hearing this, Xia Daiti smiled and said, "Draw a map?"

"That's right, but the island is a bit big, and we don't necessarily have to finish drawing it all at once. We'll find a guide and take us around in a safer place."

Alka has tried it before, the map does not necessarily have to draw the island completely, even if only one area is drawn, it is also feasible.

It's just because if you draw the island directly, you can intuitively know where there are treasures, so as not to waste time.

"Then separate out a group of people and wait for us in the small town. By the way, guard the ship and learn more about it."

As if afraid that everyone would not understand, Alka pointed to the houses around them.

"Have you seen the number of these houses, it means that outsiders often come to this island, and a group of people just left just the day before yesterday."

And not to mention that there is a house specially prepared for a relatively large person like Pororo.

Thoughtful, it also shows that there are enough strangers coming to this island.

And to tell the truth, they have only just arrived in the boundless sea, and they know very little about the overall intelligence of the boundless sea.

However, the problem is that the ordinary residents of this island have never left the island, and among the hunters who have left the island, very few have traveled outside.

But not for nothing.

These people are also the source of Alka and the others' general information about the entire Boundless Sea.

For them now, the intelligence of the Boundless Sea as a whole is countless times more important than the intelligence of this small island.

These all need someone to operate.

And the same island needs to be mapped, because this island really has ruins.

Although he doesn't know how much the islanders of this island know about these ruins, he can know from the ruins they left before.

There are still many ruins that have not been opened, and they are afraid to open them.

The ancient ruins can also be activated with a special language.

It's hard not to associate them with treasure.

Now that they have all come to this island, it is natural to have a good treasure hunt.

So a map is also essential.

Although their number is small, it is enough to be divided into two teams and two lines.

After telling everyone about some of their ideas, they began to discuss.

Quietly waiting for the day to come.
