Treasure Hunters, Sail the Blue Sea

Chapter 279 The Island of Trials
After nearly 40 days and nights of sailing.

Finally, they were almost reaching their destination, and the voyage along the way did not allow them to encounter a single island.

However, Alka found some gathering places composed of many dream bubbles in his dream.

But he didn't turn around.

After all, there is already a goal.

Alka stood in the observation room, looking through the glass at the black spot on the edge of the field of vision, which was their destination.

There was a faint golden light in his eyes, Alka's vision was strengthened, and he looked into the distance.

No ships were seen staying around the island, and it seemed that the island was relatively safe.

I didn't see any reefs for protection, and the sea conditions were calm.

And this island is not too big, at least not so that the border cannot be seen.

It can be seen from a distance that there seems to be a circular building rising into the sky on the island.

As it gets closer and closer.

A tall stone tower towers over the island.

There are all kinds of stones floating around the stone tower. These stones seem to be absorbed by the stone tower, spiraling around it.

There are various broken buildings around the stone tower, but there are also some relatively intact houses.

As it got closer, the view was completely blocked.

It seems that there are some buildings surrounding it. I don't know if it is a hillside or the original cliff of the island.

Arka stepped down from the observation room.

"How about it?"

"I haven't seen any other ships staying around the island for the time being, but let's take a look around first."

Speaking of the Voice of Dawn, he began to sail around the island.

Observe the situation on the island.

By the way, the size of the island can also be estimated.

It didn't take long.

They have already sailed around to get a general understanding of some of the island's conditions.

Most of the buildings on the island seem to be of the very grandiose kind.

Gives a feeling of grandeur.

"The concentration of magic power on this island is too high. If you want to go to the island, be mentally prepared. Everything here may be activated under the high concentration of magic power."

Julia said from the side.

"Activation? What do you mean?" Jason asked curiously beside him.

"The so-called activation is a lifeless substance that becomes a magical creature under the infection of a high concentration of magic power.

They still have no soul, but they have some instinctive consciousness under the effect of magic power, and have some special abilities. "

Julia explained, as if afraid that Jason would not understand, she thought for a while and added: "You can treat it as the most primitive elemental creature."

In this way, everyone will understand.

Elemental creatures are purely material creatures, immune to spirit and spirit attacks.

Generally, it is only possible to appear in an environment full of a single magic attribute.

This is some information Alka knew in the dream world.

After sailing around, the ship stopped at a port that was easy to land.

Alka stood on the boat and began to tell everyone some brief island information he knew from Mirmi's memory.

"I don't know the name of this island, I just know the existence of this island from some memory information."

"This island was once used for trials, so be careful, even if it is abandoned and collapsed, some things will still exist."

After saying this, everyone couldn't help but think of Vastwa.

In the age of the gods, it could only be regarded as a small city-state living in a corner.

But many creations can still remain in the present, and even be reactivated because of the stimulation of language.

You can know how exaggerated the technical capabilities of that era were.

Not to mention that the place can be understood from Mirmi's information, but gods participated in the construction.

There is an obvious trace of divine creation.

As for what is the trace of divine creation, Alka doesn't know.

"So where do we park the boat?" Xia Dai asked.

Alka thought for a while and said, "Stop in the depression we just saw and pretend."

After all, they don't know much about the island, and they don't know if it's dangerous, so it's better to be cautious.

Then the Voice of Dawn sailed into a depression they had seen before, and slowly docked into it.

A mirror-like liquid appeared in Alka's hand, and he began to draw on the surrounding cliffs.

With the drawing, it turned into a mirror-like incantation, instantly hiding this area.

Arka stood on the deck.

"Let's go, what are you thinking?" Xia Daiti looked at Alka in a daze and asked suspiciously.

"Wait a minute, I have a new idea, try it out."

As Alka spoke, a mirror appeared on his face.A large mirror with a width of 3 meters and a height of 6 meters appeared on the deck.

The dream catcher emerged, and a small round mirror appeared next to it again.

The scenery revealed in the small garden is in a dream.

The pink magic power mixed with the gold and silver magic power flying out of the small round mirror, began to draw on the mirror.

Numerous incantations are engraved on the mirror.

It seems very complicated at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that most of the spells are all repeated.

Along with the engraving, Arca engraved the icon of the pupil of the compass on the center.

With the last stroke falling.

The whole mirror glowed with a different color, from the structure of the mirror to a little hazy like the fog in a dream.

Looking at the structure of the mirror, Alka had a smile on his face.

"What is this?"

Hearing everyone's questions, Alka turned around and introduced them with a smile.

"The mirror of dream travel, when the time comes, I will be able to make another mirror on the spot. Then quickly return to the ship through the mirror to avoid the danger like before."

"Portal?" Simon said looking at the mirror.

This thing sounds exactly like a portal.

"Yes, it can be understood that way."

This is achieved by Alka through a special method, born out of the previous mirror of travel.

The previous ones can only travel a very short distance, which is used to improve the strangeness and flexibility in battle.

But since Alka has a trace of the blood of the God of Dreams, plus the kingship in the dream, he can use this special structure to make his own ideas.

Use a lot of spells, mix your own power, and add the magic power of gold and silver, so that you can temporarily create a weak point leading to the dream.

Take your own mirror as a carrier.

And because of Arka's right to be the king of dreams, it is directly connected to his palace.

When not in use, the energy does not dissipate, and Alka only needs to solidify the mirror itself.

Such a long-distance large-scale crossing consumes too much magic power, and it can almost be called a one-off.

After all, gold and silver energy is not easy to obtain.

Then Alka can open another mirror anytime and anywhere, and use his dream palace as a transfer station to carry out a one-time long-distance transmission.

It is said to be a long distance, but the distance obviously cannot be stretched too far.

But this is quite enough for the scope of this island.

He himself was prepared to make a quick return to the ship from the island in order to escape.

There is another means of quick escape.

"It's a good idea, using the dream as a transit..." Simon nodded to express his great interest.

After all, real teleportation is carried out with space as the anchor point.

But this is obviously not what they can do now.

After placing the mirror, some doll girls were arranged to guard it.

Everyone boarded the long-lost Feiyan. This time, except for a few puppet girls made of human hair, the rest of the captain and team members were all left on board.

The island is too unknown and dangerous for them to operate.

And this is an island for trials.

If some trials are touched, too many people may increase the difficulty.

At least that's how Alka understood it.

He took the Feiyan to the abandoned port and boarded the shore.

They dragged the Feiyan ashore and hid it.

Everyone looked at the surrounding situation.

"Someone should have been to this place, and there are traces of almost every time period." Jason said looking at some traces around him.

First of all, there are various remnants, as well as some obviously new and old garbage and traces of camping.

"The concentration of magic power is really high." Alka couldn't help saying, feeling the concentration of magic power around him.

The magic concentration of this island will enter the body with the breath.

You can feel the magic power entering your body with every breath, which even makes your throat and nasal cavity feel a little itchy.

Xia Daiti walked in front and led the way for everyone. It was still the old rule that she would carry out the island exploration.

Silver ripples passed from under her feet to the surroundings.

Xia Daiti frowned just after using it: "The concentration of magic power is too high, even the soil is rich in magic power, which completely blocked the transmission of my silver ripples."

"Does that mean it won't work?" Alka asked.

Xia Dati shook his head, and a ring of light appeared on his head.

Afterwards, the silver ripples forcibly expanded towards the surroundings.

"The ability to detect deep is weakened, but simple detection of terrain on the surface is still no problem."

"Then let's continue, mainly for drawing the map. The hidden space below, or the place with holes, will be discussed later." Alka said.

After all, as long as the complete map of the island comes out, we will naturally know where there are hidden treasures, and whether they are hidden under the ground, and we will know when the time comes.

Xia Daiti nodded and led the crowd forward.

There are many buildings at the port, spreading all the way, but most of these buildings have been completely damaged, because they are located by the sea, they have long been decayed due to the sea breeze, and they have become a little black.

You can also see many wrecks of shipwrecks piled up here pushed by the waves.

"Be careful, something is coming," Julia said.

The sound of creaking sounded from all over the pile of wreckage of the sunken ship.

Some strange creatures made up of old tattered clothes, seaweed, and all kinds of completely rusted weapons crawled on the ground, twisting crookedly towards Alka and the others.

The tattered weapon wrapped around its body was facing them, as if it wanted to attack them.

With the buzzing sound sounded.

Two sentinel aircraft flew directly past Simon, attacking those strange creatures.

Red light flashes.

The beam hits the monster directly.

The high-energy attack directly penetrated it, and ignited the dried seaweed and clothes on its body.

There was a turbid smell with a hint of foul smell.

These monsters that were hit didn't seem to be completely dead, they gathered together against the flames and turned into a bigger creature.

"They are constructed from a high concentration of magic power, and should exist similar to energy cores.

Only by breaking or blocking the energy transmission between them can they be eliminated. "

Julia watched carefully and came to a conclusion.

Hearing this, Simon nodded.

Two more Sentinel aircraft flew over.

These two seem to have different functions, and there is a circle of crystal-like things in front of them.

Start to detect around the huge monster.

It seems that the location of the core was scanned.

The two Sentinels immediately attacked, this time not with beams but with bullets.

With a dull sound, the bullet was fired.

It penetrated the monster's body in an instant, and the body made of all kinds of cloth and plant remains was too fragile and almost completely defenseless.

Everyone clearly heard the sound of clicking.

As if collapsing, the monster quickly collapsed into a mass.

Only then did everyone go up.

An iron rod condensed in Simon's hand, and he planed it.

A strange core that was still shining slightly was exposed inside.

This core object is actually a broken skull?

It's just that the skull has already become black and shiny, and the crystal texture inside can even be seen through the surface.

Materisa bent down and picked up the skull directly with her hands, not feeling disgusted at all.

Looking at the skull carefully.

"This should be the skull of a person who touched it. The death has nothing to do with the brain injury. The damage is acquired.

The strength should be good in life, and the treasures or spells that may be used are all related to the brain and spirit. "

"After dying in such a high magic environment, the head absorbed the magic power and changed its texture."

As he spoke, he handed the skull directly to Alka.

"A good biological material, if you don't dislike it, it can still be used."

Alka took a look after taking it, and didn't dislike it at all, and threw it to Simon.

This kind of high-energy object is generally what Simon needs, after all, his structure needs energy to drive.

It would be too embarrassing for him to be driven only by his magic power.

After a small episode, everyone skipped some buildings ahead and walked towards the interior of the island through the central avenue.

The structure of this island is somewhat peculiar. It is surrounded by a circle of towering cliffs, and the only entrance in the cliff is the building area in front of the port.

There is a gap similar to a door here, which can enter the interior.

This magnificent gate has been completely collapsed and damaged, leaving only two stone pillars, one short and one long, still in place, and they are full of traces of being blown by the wind.

A few people just stood at the door.

A set of damaged stone armor was condensed from the surrounding gravel.

The assembled armor was five or six meters high, and a giant hammer formed of a huge stone floated in front of him, as if being held by an invisible hand.

From this, it seems to be another creature formed by high magic.

"Be careful, his energy response is relatively strong, and some spells and magic power are also drawn on the stones gathered on his body." Said the Sentinel aircraft in the hand of Simon's controller, detecting it next to him.

However, the broken magic stone armor didn't intend to attack them, it just floated quietly beside them.

Just like the guards of this gate.

"Isn't he attacking?"

"Maybe we didn't take any offensive actions? Not all magic-infected creatures are aggressive."

Several people slowly moved two steps to the side.

Still no attack.

Slowly moved to the position of the gate until everyone passed the gate.

This pile of stones gathered together and the armor floating in the air collapsed, and once again piled in the pile of stones below, as if it had never been condensed.

"So what does he mean by condensing?" Jason asked a little puzzled.

If you don't want to attack, it's fine if you don't show up at the beginning. Could it be because of curiosity?

Alka shrugged and shook his head: "Who knows, maybe his duty is to guard the gate, and anyone who passes by must observe."

You can see the interior through the gate.

Large areas of ruins, as well as some former buildings, are still left behind.

The huge tower in the center is so conspicuous.

Especially the gravel floating around the tower looks extraordinary.

Except for this place, there are many huge stones around the ruins of the entire building, just floating in the air.

These stones seem to form an empty island, but they are not high from the ruins. The short ones only float two or three meters away, and the tall ones float above ten meters.

"A new tester is coming?"

"It's really rare to have the blood of a god in such a broken age."

"So young people, do you want to participate in the trial?"
