Chapter 120: The Speedy Flying Swallow
Church of Our Lady of the Seas.
The core island of the entire sea area, the place of faith of the Virgin Mary in the mortal world.
This place is called the Cathedral.
The entire island is occupied by a complex of buildings.
The silver-gray buildings are stacked layer by layer from the outside to the inside, located on the island.
As you go further inward, the height of the buildings becomes higher and higher, and the entire island looks like a spire.
In the middle of the island is a huge, exaggerated statue carved from a boulder that is at least a hundred meters high.
The tall Virgin Mary is holding a baby in her arms. She lowers her head slightly with a loving face, looking at the child in her arms.
There is a child at the side of the legs, who stretches out his right hand and holds the Virgin's free arm.
There was an innocent and happy smile on the child's face, and in his other hand he was holding an ear of wheat.
When the scorching sun in the sky shines its light on the island, silver-gray buildings are scattered all over the island.
The materials of these buildings ensure that they do not reflect dazzling light even under such scorching sun.
People will not worship it or feel it is sacred, but will be willingly impressed by the magnificent building complex itself.
It is never grand or glorious, so naturally it will not make some people with low self-esteem feel panic.
The three people who successfully escaped from the Sea Fist returned safely to the church's headquarters.
They were protected by a group of church knights and brought to the church building at the foot of the huge statue.
A sturdy old man with a square face, serious face, wearing silver-gray armor, sat in front of several people.
There was no tenderness on his serious face. He stared at Vanessa in front of him and asked, "What happened? Tell me in detail?"
What he was asking about, of course, was the events encountered by the Blue Fist treasure hunting team led by Andre.
Vanessa forced herself to stay awake and told the knight in front of her everything from the time they encountered the Prayer for the Dead at the edge of the Dark Realm until their successful escape.
After hearing the answers and additions from several people, the powerful knight frowned, wondering what he was thinking about.
But he said with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "The wild dogs on the sea dared to touch the holy relics of the Virgin Mary. They deserve to die."
While thinking, he stood up and prepared to leave the room. After thinking for a while, he said, "I will take care of this matter. Thank you for your hard work. Have a good rest."
At this time, Vanessa reached out and grabbed his arm.
Not only Vanessa, the other two also looked up at him: "If this is an operation against those pirates, can you take us with you?"
Looking at the determination in their eyes.
The knight did not refuse and nodded: "No problem, I will start preparing now and I will inform you when the action is taken tomorrow."
Only then did the few of them feel at ease and were taken to the back room by the nuns next to them to rest and recover from the fatigue brought by the non-stop rushing back during this period of time.
…
Turn your attention back to the dark realm.
Alka moved out the box buried in the corner of the cave in front of him, and pried open the box made by the ancestor of the shipbuilding family with force.
I have to say that this box must have been deliberately made, it is very well sealed, and has several layers of protection measures to ensure that the things inside can withstand the passage of time.
As the box was pried open.
Inside was a pile of drawings written on an unknown leather, each with a light blue outline.
Alka reached out, stacked the drawings together, and took them out.
With the touch, the blue outline disappears.
Alka was also able to see what was on it.
Even an amateur like him could tell from the patterns drawn on these drawings that they should be manufacturing drawings of some kind of ship.
It can also be seen that some extraordinary means were used, as can be seen from the description of the spell above.
"Xia Daiti, can you tell what kind of ships these drawings are used to build?"
Hearing Alka's question, Xiadaiti simply flipped through it and then shook his head.
"I only know the general idea of shipbuilding. I don't know anything about something more profound than this."
At this moment, Lucilia suddenly emerged from Alka's chest.
Xia Daiti, who was standing in front of Alka, trembled for a moment, and then immediately forced himself to calm down.
He watched as Lucelia stuck her head out and looked at the drawings in Alka's hand as if nothing had happened.
As Alka turned the pages one by one to show her.
Lucilia said directly: "Although I can't fully understand these drawings, I have seen many similar ones before."
"It should be a blueprint for building a prototype ghost ship. Judging from this core blueprint, this ghost ship does not have too many tendencies. It should be mainly used to adapt to the treasures it owns."
Alka heard from Lucelia.
The so-called ghost ship is a magical ship that possesses self-awareness and countless incredible functions.
It is much rarer and more powerful than a spell ship, and if you want to own a ghost ship, you must have a treasure.
This is a necessary condition, but this one condition can kill 99.99% of people.
In the previous strange travelogue, the ship the author was on was a ghost ship.
In the book, this ghost ship brought great convenience to their sea travel.
Through Lucelia's brief introduction, the so-called prototype ghost ship is not much different from the spell ship.
It was just a special customization with the addition of many spells that seemed to have no effect at all, but they could make it easier to transform into a ghost ship when it had treasures.
This is a specially customized ship under the premise of protection.
After getting a general understanding, Alka nodded, then put the drawings away and stored them in his pocket ring.
Although this thing is very precious, it has little to do with them for the time being.
As for whether it will matter in the future...
"How long will it take?" Alka suddenly looked at Xia Dai and asked.
Xia Daiti turned his head and looked at the passage connecting the cave to the outside world.
At this moment, the sound of the ebb and flow of the sea water suddenly sounded, and through the dark vision, they saw the water slowly rushing into the passage.
Then it spread to a nearby place.
"Time is up."
Hearing this, Alka immediately took action, and even Pororo, who was dozing off in the corner next to him, stood up immediately.
Several people worked together to move the guardrails on both sides of the ship to protect it, allowing the ship to move.
Then logs were placed underneath one by one. Perhaps this had been anticipated, so the logs were stored nearby.
Moreover, after being processed, although it is old, it can still be used.
Alka and Pororo came to the bow and each dragged a chain and pulled it forward with all their strength.
Xia Daiti kept placing the logs at the back to the front so that the boat could move forward more easily.
Fortunately, Porro is already a double-helix toucher, and with his racial and physical advantages, he has great power.
With Alka's help, dragging was very easy.
Thankfully, the boat is really small.
After a while, the ship, which was not very big to begin with, was finally towed into the sea in the tunnel.
They dragged the boat until the seawater covered their heads, and then Alka simply jumped onto the boat.
The ship is only three to four meters wide, which makes it look a bit narrow, with a slender hull and a blade-like bottom.
The small rudder stood at the stern of the ship, Xia Daiti steered the rudder, and Alka went to the main mast and infused magic power into it.
They had previously briefly tested the entire sailboat, which was a vessel designed to push speed to the extreme.
Whether it is the structure of the hull or the choice of mast and sail, they are all born for speed.
In addition, the spells covered on the spell ship are all related to sailing on the sea.
The bottom and sides of the boat are engraved with spells to keep the water moving forever, and the mast has a spell to attract wind to push the sails.
Even the spell engraved on the bow was trying its best to divide the sea water, which was consistent with the spell that Sangkaka used when he swam quickly before.
Pororo was behind the ship, pushing the stern until it completely fell into the sea in the channel.
Then he jumped up from the stern.
As the entire ship floated completely in the sea, the sails had not yet fallen, but with the use of spells on both sides.
The water flow on both sides began to push automatically, and the boat began to slowly move out of the cave.
Now the most important ship was in hand, and in much better shape than they had imagined.
Now it’s time to consider what comes next.
"With our strength, it is obviously a pipe dream to want to deal with the Prayers for the Dead.
So with this ship, can we think about whether we can break through their ambush at the edge, rush out of the dark area and return to the church's sea area when our location can be sensed ?"
After hearing what Alka said, neither of them raised any objection.
They had communicated before.
If they use their current strength to deal with the Prayers for the Dead, they will be courting death. You have to know that this is a pirate group that possesses a treasure.
After mastering the treasure, Alka's father will definitely be the strength of a triple helix.
This is the improvement that will definitely be brought about by mastering the treasure, and the one who masters the treasure triple spiral toucher is simply not comparable to the ordinary triple spiral.
They are not creatures from the same dimension at all.
No matter what treasure he possesses, Alka's father is now one of the most powerful people in this place.
Compared to revenge, it is more realistic to think about how to break through their pursuit and reunite with the church, and then fight along with the church.
The question now is, Alka wants to get out from the edge of the sea, will his father let him do so?
I didn’t dare to think about it before, but now that I have this ship that lives by speed, maybe I can give it a try.
“You can give it a try.”
The target of the operation has been determined, and the ship has sailed out of the cave and arrived at the edge of the island.
The sails dropped.
In an instant, the surrounding wind was attracted by the spell on the mast, blowing the sails up.
The entire ship immediately accelerated to its maximum speed, cutting through the waves directly, with water splashing from both sides to form a barrier.
The bow of the boat was slightly raised and it moved quickly forward, leaving a white trail.
"So fast!" Xia Daiti, who was at the helm, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement as he saw the ship suddenly running at full speed.
As the ship moved forward, two words appeared on the hull.
Feiyan, this is exactly its name.
Alka pulled out a map and began looking for a safe route based on their current location so that they could quickly break through and return to the sea outside.
Judging from the time, if Gami and the others are safe, they should have reached the cathedral by now.
I just don’t know how efficient the cathedral is, how long it will take to act, and I don’t know if Andre, who may still be alive, can hold on.
Alka had no idea about this.
With the help of the sea chart provided by magic, Alka chose a route that was closest to them and the easiest to use the Dark Realm.
Start making your first attempt.
When their ship could no longer see the island, holes began to appear in the dark clouds in the sky from time to time.
Let the sunlight outside temporarily shine in.
At this time, Porro, who was squatting in the middle of the boat, suddenly sensed something and jumped off the boat.
Swimming alongside the fast-moving boat, circle after circle, very clearly visible waves began to spread out in a circular shape from where he was.
