Treasure Hunters, Sail the Blue Sea

Chapter 234 Excavating the Ruins
Xia Daiti carefully inspected around the ruins, even the silver ripples she emitted could be clearly seen.

The detected silver ripples could give her a clear feedback of the underground situation.

The effect of this is that Xia Daiti can simulate a three-dimensional model in her mind, and let her know exactly where to dig, saving time and effort, and will not damage the ruins.

Such a precise investigation naturally requires more thought and more time.

Just when Xia Daiti was conducting a precise investigation.

Digging tools made of scrap iron and some better parts were also made from Simon's hands.

Such a simple and convenient tool making is extremely easy for Simon, especially since he has precise hands and treasures.

Even thoughtfully made a simple structure for the handle of this tool.

This is a sharp triangular shovel with triangular sides that can be stretched out when digging down, expanding the digging area.

The structure on the handle can make it easier to control the shovel when it enters the soil, and it can also dig up stones when necessary.

Simon just held it in his hand, demonstrated it to everyone, and then handed the first finished product to Jason next to him.

Afterwards, a bigger shovel specially customized for Pororo was made and handed to him.

After making a handful for everyone.

Simon thought for a while, then moved his hands again.

Seeing that the liquid metal in Simon's hand was changing shape, Alka, who was waving the strange shovel in his hand, smiled.

"Here, this is for you." Simon smiled and handed four small shovels the size of a palm to Lucilia and the doll girls next to him.

"Thank you!" Lucilia took it happily.

The doll girls behind them also smiled.

Including Er who quickly swung over after seeing the situation here.

Only then did Xia Daiti stand up and pat the dirt on his hands.

At this time, around the ruins, there were large and small marks, all of which she made when she was investigating.

"Dig down from here, dig in this box, don't dig out." Xia Daiti pointed to the square mark not far from her.

Then he kicked his own feet: "From here to the direction marked over there, dig diagonally."

Followed by instructions to each marker.

This is the plan that Xia Daiti simulated in his mind, using the power of everyone to quickly dig out the entire ruins.

After the plan is finished.

Everyone moved.

Simon watched from the side as the four-armed Martha Lisa dug.

After thinking for a while, he walked over: "Let me improve the tools in your hands for you. Now this one doesn't seem to be suitable for you."

"Ah? It's all right, it's fine for me to use this." Materisa waved her hand very politely.

Although they had been together for several days, they were the last to board the boat after all, and they were still stuffed by his grandfather.

It's okay to mention a few women with Xia Dai, but I'm not that familiar with the men on the ship like Alka.

"It's okay, it's not difficult for me, don't worry."

Simon said that he took the shovel from her hand, and then remodeled it to lengthen the handle, so that Materisa can use 4 arms to hold it with greater strength, and it won't look awkward .

Materisa took the remodeled shovel and swiped it twice. It was indeed much easier to use than the one she just had.

The comfort level has been improved several notches immediately.

Nodding in satisfaction: "Thank you, this is really a good change."

At this time, the largest marked area had already been dug out a huge deep pit by Pororo.

With the huge shovel and Pororo's powerful strength, its efficiency is simply even more terrifying than that of an excavator.

Every time a shovel goes down, a large group of soil is dug out.

That area was specially assigned to him by Xia Daiti, and it could perfectly show Pororo's efficiency.

At this time, Xia Daiti was walking back and forth in the area where everyone was digging, with silver ripples constantly passing under his feet, monitoring the surrounding situation at any time.

"Jason, you are digging too far, adjust it later."

"Ju Anlu, slow down, the speed is too fast and affects the structure below."

According to the situation, Xia Daiti adjusted everyone's digging methods from time to time.

Like an overseer.

However, this also made everyone's excavation more and more efficient, and the excavation of the entire excavation site was proceeding in an orderly manner.

A large clump of soil was dug out by Pororo's huge shovel, and the whole clump of soil was thrown into the sky with an excessive force.

Sliding through the arc, falling with precision.

puff!
"Who is it!"

Jason's angry roar came from the hole he dug.

So precise, it's hard not to wonder if it was intentional.

Hear Jason's voice.

Arka raised his head, stood on tiptoe, exposed his head out of the pothole, and looked out.

what happened?
Hearing this sound, several people around were equally curious.

Just in time to see another large group of soil thrown in the sky.

It passed over the heads of everyone, causing a lot of soil to fall down.

Hastily raised the shovel to cover.

The biggest ball fell into Jason's pothole again.

"Damn! Who!"

Jason, covered in mud, crawled out of his hole angrily.

The angry voice startled Pororo.

He turned his head blankly and looked in Jason's direction.

Alka and the others also looked rather dazed.

Jason just looked at the blank eyes of several people like this, as if they didn't do it.

"Okay, you're all at a loss, right? Then don't blame me for hurting the innocent!"

Speaking of which, Jason shoveled into the ground suddenly, and a large ball of soil was directly surrounded by him and thrown out.

"What are you doing!"

"What does that have to do with me?"

"It's a war, right?"

The few people who were hit by the mud immediately started to fight back.

The scene immediately became chaotic.

The movement here attracted Xia Daiti who was squatting on the ground for further detection.

She stood up and turned to see what was happening.

"Be careful! Xia Daiti."

Unexpectedly, just as she turned her head, she saw a large mass of soil flying towards her.

She was caught off guard on the spot and knocked to the ground.

Looking at the dirt all over his body, Xia Daiti's face suddenly became calm.

He got up and silently patted off the dirt on his body.

"Sister Julia," she called quietly.

Julia, who had just crawled out of the hole she dug, nodded.

By the way, she patted the dirt all over her smooth blue hair, and she was also hit by the dirt.

The aperture floated behind him, and several ribbons flew out.

On Xia Daiti's forehead, golden lines gushed out, and a headband was worn on his head.

"The two of them seem to be very angry, don't we want to stop it?" Materisa touched Lucilia next to her with the tip of her snake tail, and asked cautiously.

Lucilia is now smiling all over her face, and her eyes can even see light.

Looking at Alka and the others who didn't know about it, they were still attacking each other with mud, and the smiles on their faces became wider and wider.

"It's okay, there's a good show to watch."

Standing opposite, Arka, who could just see Xia Daiti and the others, seemed to have noticed something was wrong.

Silently dumped the soil from his shovel, and gently retracted his body into the hole he dug.

Even if the dirt was sprinkled on his body again, he didn't seem to feel it.

The ribbon jumped out and tied him around.

Obviously someone didn't want to let him go.

Seeing that such a method would not work, Alka immediately argued loudly: "It has nothing to do with me!"

It is useless function.

The ribbon lifted him up into the air, and Jason and the others were also lifted into the air.

Even the huge Pororo.

The sunlight suddenly condensed into beams from the sky and hit them.

"Sigh~"

"Ah! It's hot!"

"Burn, burn."

"..."

Various cries of pain came from their mouths.

When they found the source of the attack, they saw Shadetti with a bad face and Julia with a slight smile.

There is also the mud covered by the two of them, although the mud covered their bodies still cannot hide the beauty of the two of them.

But what to say.

It was quite embarrassing, especially the mud and sand mixed in the hair of the two of them, which was not easy to clean up for the two of them.

"Are you guys playing some um...game?"

Baishi's voice suddenly sounded not far away.

Hearing this sound, the ribbons on several big men were immediately loosened, causing them to fall to the ground.

The sun beams shining on them also disappeared, and Shadati and Julia immediately returned to their original state.

Fortunately, there are piles of dirt on their side, blocking their sight.

Everyone turned their heads to look at the place where the sound came from.

Shiraishi was leading a team of hunters over, as if they were on patrol.

The ruins they are excavating now are not far from the outskirts of the town, about five or six kilometers away.

It seems that this can be regarded as their patrol route.

Shiraishi, who came over, looked at the holes they had dug around, and instantly understood what they were doing.

After all, I have been with them for several days, so I probably know something about Alka and the others.

"You... don't you want to dig out the entire ruins to have a look?"

After cleaning up the dirt on his body a little, Alka nodded with a smile.

"Of course, wouldn't it be a pity not to know about such a large relic?"

"Aren't you a treasure hunting group?"

As Baishi spoke, he suddenly realized.

"Oh, I see, but don't get your hopes up too much.

The reason why many ruins here have special effects is because the spells that were once carved on them still remain on those collapsed ruins, so they can produce effects.

So unless you remove all the ruins, it is useless, most of the ruins have no treasures. "

Obviously, Alka's behavior is nothing unusual for this island.

The strangers who came to the island were not the only ones who had done this before.

Even the inhabitants of this island have tried it once.

After all, the entire island is almost covered with relics, and it can even be said that the entire island is formed from the relics of that city-state.

Hearing this, Alka was not discouraged, and said with a smile: "It's okay, although we are a treasure hunting group, our pursuit of treasures is not very strong.

And this is a large ruin. Isn't it more attractive to decrypt the existence and stories of the past? "

"Don't you want to know the civilization of this island, maybe these are your ancestors.

For these archeology and excavations, we still have a little bit of experience. "

Alka did not lie.

For him, the blue treasure represented here is not as important as digging out the ruins, and the information recorded on it.

What he needs is the information brought by these ruins, so that he can unlock more information about the treasures of that orange light and golden light.

The blue dots are just incidental.

After all, almost all of this island is in ruins, where there are blue light spots, maybe more important and comprehensive information can be found.

Hearing this, Shiraishi thought for a while and nodded, as if it was indeed the case.

"Okay, then I won't bother you, but remember that sentence, don't speak our language around the ruins.

Walking around this island, you have also seen the consequences. "

This is the main problem.

Then he added: "Also, I have to go back to town after dark. I don't want to hear about the death of a friend I just met."

Hearing Shiraishi's slightly concerned words, Arka nodded with a smile, and then waved to him.

"Okay, don't worry."

Shiraishi turned his head and returned to his team.

After a while, Shiraishi's voice came from a distance.

"Be careful, some monsters just like to wander around, and the sound from your place might startle them."

Afterwards, they saw Baishi and the others getting into the woods not far away.

when he turned his head.

It was found that the place where they sprinkled the soil just now had been cleaned up, and Polo Rogerson and the others were digging in the pothole silently.

It was as if what happened just now was a fantasy.

It was only when Alka turned his head slightly to the side and looked towards Xia Daiti and the others that he realized it.

What happened just now was obviously not an illusion.

At this time, Xia Daiti looked at him expressionlessly.

Not far away, Julia was sitting by the pothole, and Lucilia and Materisa were cleaning the sand from her head.

Ling Yier was walking towards Xia Daiti, ready to clean the sand from her head.

Looking at Xia Daiti who was staring at him, Arka smiled awkwardly and laughed.

But he didn't go into the pothole as casually as Jason and the others to continue digging.

Instead, he walked towards Xia Daiti.

Seeing Alka's brave behavior, the few people who were digging the hole were digging silently, but they all tilted their heads slightly and looked at it from the corner of their eyes.

Arka came over, and put down the dolls that had climbed onto Xia Daiti's shoulders.

"Go ahead and leave it to me."

After speaking, he looked at Xia Daiti, and a comb appeared in his hand.

Xia Daiti looked at Alka blankly.

As for the heart... it was surging like the surface of the sea.

Alka walked around behind Xia Detti's back, held up her short silver hair with her hands, picked up the comb, and cleaned it gently.

"Don't be angry, I'll clean it up for you."

Several people digging in the pit looked at this scene with different expressions.

"Oh~" Simon suddenly realized that this was the case, and it felt wrong before.

"Strong!" Jason showed admiration. Although he knew it, he still admired it.

"Yeah." Hu Anlu nodded, learned.

"Cut~" Pororo was full of disdain, unable to understand that a woman would only affect the speed of the attack.

Facing the different expressions of the four people, Arka pretended not to see it, and silently felt the soft silver thread in his hand.

And looking at Xia Daiti who was pretending to be calm, the slightly red ears and the white and tender neck that was sweating a little.

The female members behind were also watching this scene.

Materisa looked curious. Although she was cleaning the sand from Julia's head, she looked up from time to time.

Doll [-] was about to go up and disturb, but Zero and Yi crossed their hands and dragged them to the pit, struggling non-stop, even covering their mouths.

Julia watched the scene, shaking her left shoulder.

Lucilia, who was standing on her left shoulder and cleaning the sand from her head, felt the movement and lowered her head.

"Did you pull out your hair?"

"……No."

He silently raised his hand to hold his forehead.

……

As everyone focused their attention on the excavation of the ruins.

The progress of the entire excavation began to accelerate again.

With their powerful physique and such useful tools, it didn't take long for the ruins below to begin to be exposed.

The surroundings were also filled with excavated soil, the potholes became bigger and bigger, and the places dug by everyone began to connect, and a large area was exposed.

The shovels in everyone's hands have also been replaced long ago, and turned into various more sophisticated tools, as if excavating ruins for fear of causing damage to these things.

Lucilia has also begun to study and interpret the exposed parts of the ruins.

The three puppet girls following her were holding their own tools and doing a finer cleaning to facilitate her observation.

"There are 3 monsters approaching, they are not strong, someone will clean them up." Xia Daiti, who was exuding silver ripples, said suddenly.

Porolo, who was standing on the pit with nothing to do, immediately ran over in the direction Xia Daiti pointed out when he heard this.

The current fine work is obviously not what he can do, and he can do the first rough work.

When he returned with the three prey that had turned into corpses, the crowd had already dug out most of the surface of the ruins.

Now it is waiting for Lucilia to give a complete interpretation.

However, with the exposure of the ruins, Xia Daiti's silver ripples also discovered more things.

Standing on top of the ruins, she crouched down and felt the whole ruins below more carefully.

Silver ripples can now travel deeper underground.

Although these ruins have a long history, after all, the materials used and the incantations were once engraved on them. In addition, the concentration of magic power here is high, which always affects her exploration.

Along with the detection, she also began to show confusion.

Alka, who was standing next to him, asked, "What's the matter, is there anything wrong with your expression?"

Xia Dati raised his head and nodded.
