Chapter 189 Harvest
There were a total of four ships coming out of the coastline.
The leading ship, with its black and red colors and its emblem that looks like a lava palm, is the Burning Blood Hand.
Alka looked carefully and found that except for some damage around the ship, the entire ship was still well preserved.
The three ships behind were not as lucky as him.
One of the three ships at the back was brown and white, with a sail that showed a lance piercing a broken skull.
The meaning of this pattern is to defeat pirates, and this ship is the team led by a female captain that specializes in fighting pirates, the Skull Crusher Knights.
There were obvious signs of damage around the ship, but the overall structure was still relatively intact, following closely behind the Burning Blood Hand.
The last two ships had the same color scheme, light gold with purple lines, and the emblem on the sails was exactly the fleet of the Tulip Empire that had arrived at the door last.
Alka remembered that their team should have three ships in total, and the flagship was also the largest of all the ships around at the time, carrying the most ordinary people.
And until the end, not even one ordinary person was allowed to get off the ship.
But now there are only two left, and the larger flagship is seriously damaged.
The smaller ship already had a huge hole in the stern, which they didn't even have time to repair.
At this time, all the spells on the four ships were lit up, and they were sailing towards them at the fastest speed.
It's as if they are running away from something.
They are being chased by something.
The spell on the smaller Tulip Empire ship suddenly went out.
The remaining three ships had no intention of waiting and were moving quickly. Suddenly, something broke out from the sea.
Countless white lines like silk threads emerged from the sea and directly hit the remaining ship.
Something like white lines went back and forth on the hull. Alka even saw a person being pierced by the lines and lifted into the air.
Seeing this situation, Alka immediately waved his hand.
The Voice of Dawn received the order, and the sails, masts, and spells on the bottom of the hull lit up one after another.
The speed of the entire ship suddenly increased again, and the waves on the bow were directly cut and splashed to both sides.
The sudden acceleration made everyone on the deck unsteady on their feet, and they all grabbed onto things around them to steady themselves.
"What's going on? Why did you suddenly increase the speed to the highest gear?"
Because they were on the deck, they did not see the tragic condition of the last ship.
All they could see now were the two fastest ships in front.
As the speed was increased to the highest level, the breeze that had been blowing from behind them suddenly blew from the front.
Alka had been observing from behind in the observation room, always alert to the situation behind.
Watching the tulip ship that was left behind, how it was cut into pieces by the white silk threads and sank to the bottom of the sea until it disappeared at the end of the sight.
The threads can be seen very clearly even at this distance.
And the three escaping ships gradually disappeared from sight due to the extreme speed of Alka and his crew.
As for stopping the boat to rescue people, it was not even within Alka's consideration.
Saving lives and helping others is also within their control, not in situations that are obviously very dangerous.
Now as the captain, Alka doesn't want to put his crew in danger for no reason.
He is responsible for them.
Not to mention that there is clear information showing that the Burning Blood Hand and the Skull Crushing Knights are teams that possess treasures.
In addition, their team is not a treasure hunting group, resulting in a large number of members on the ship.
If we exclude Alka who possesses two treasures on the ship, and Julia who has the strength of six spirals.
Any ship from these two teams is stronger than Alka and his men.
In such a situation, they all had to run, so naturally they wouldn't be able to help if they stopped.
Moreover, the thread monster that just destroyed the ship made Alka think of the wreckage of the ships he had seen on the sea before.
Just as they had said on the deck, the cut in the wreckage was so smooth, as if it had been cut smoothly by a sharp blade.
It didn't look like the shattering caused by the crashing of waves, and there was also the booklet that Alka had just found in the cave.
I don’t know how many years ago those people’s ships were destroyed by a strange sea beast, and many of the wreckage on the island at that time showed smooth cuts.
This means that this sea beast has been rampant in this sea area for at least several hundred years.
It has not been destroyed over all these years, but has destroyed countless ships.
It's simply not something they can deal with.
In this case, running is the right thing to do.
Alka continued to observe from the observation room.
As the ship suddenly accelerated, Xia Daiti and others roughly understood the situation they were in, so they were all alert on the deck, ready to fight at any time.
It was not until two hours later, when it was confirmed that it was completely safe, that Alka walked down from the observation room.
Pororo came up to take his place and continued to be vigilant about his surroundings.
Seeing Alka finally coming down, everyone gathered around.
Although they were alert to their surroundings and prepared for battle, they had no idea what was happening behind the scenes.
They want to know why.
Alka nodded to them and then led them to the captain's room.
After everyone was seated, he said, "There were four ships behind us just now. They are the Burning Blood Hand, the Skull Crushing Knights, and the Tulip Empire. They are all running away."
Hearing this, everyone frowned seriously.
These teams are all relatively well-known, especially the first two, which can be said to be very famous.
There are also ships from the Tulip Empire whose treasures may or may not be in their possession.
Even with Julia, they couldn't guarantee that their current situation would be better than those ships combined.
“It must have been a very powerful sea beast. They escaped at the cost of one of Tulip’s ships being destroyed.
I don’t know if they can escape.”
Anyway, in Alka's vision, the last ship of Tulip seemed to have the function of the spell turned off deliberately, and it was left behind specifically as bait.
In this situation, you don't need to run very fast, as long as you make sure you are not the last one, you will be safe.
"I suspect that the sea beast is the culprit for the debris we saw at sea and on the island."
Hearing this, Jason and others couldn't help but think about it.
The same wreckage they had seen on the sea before and the same smooth cuts they had seen on the islands.
"After all these years, has no one been able to destroy that sea beast?"
Everyone just shook their heads at this question.
After all, they didn't even see the specific appearance of the sea beast, they just had a general understanding of its attack method.
At this time, Alka knocked on the table and said, "Okay, don't worry about it. Let's just leave."
Anyway, it has nothing to do with them anymore.
At their current speed, it won't be long before they are completely out of this sea area.
And it was obvious that the sea beast would not leave there.
As he spoke, a few somewhat gray objects appeared in his hands. Fortunately, they had been cleaned before being put into the ring.
"Let's talk about something happy. These are the things we just found in the cave. Let's share them."
After hearing Alka's words, everyone's attention was diverted to the objects on the table.
Alka collected a total of three magic items below, all of which still had faint magic power on them, indicating that they had not been depleted with the passage of time.
At least it's not waste and can still be used.
The oilcloth around the box must have a protective function, otherwise these magical items would become waste within a hundred years.
Of course, it is also possible that the magic concentration on that island is very high, and even if the magic items are placed outside, they will not weaken over time due to the high magic concentration.
No one knows exactly how it happened.
The three objects are each a conical stone, which is dark brown with red lines on it.
The surface looks irregular, as if it was just a piece dug out from a mine and has not been polished.
A gray ring with a lot of dirt in the gaps between the carvings on the ring, which had not been cleaned in time.
The last item is the one with a blue outline, which is a glove with a wrist guard.
There are two crystals of different sizes on the back of the gloves and the wristband. There are also metal objects surrounding the crystals on the back of the hands and the wristband, with spells engraved on them.
Judging from the style of this glove, it should be worn on the left hand.
Alka first picked up the dark brown conical stone and examined it briefly.
"This should be a magical item used to create fire, but time has still left its mark on it, so its effect should not be strong now."
As Alka spoke, he poured magic power into it from the bottom. The red lines on the stone lit up and then gathered at the top of the cone.
Flames appeared, but that was all.
As time passed, this treasure was still damaged. It should have been made of some kind of spell material and had some spells carved on it.
Simply put, this is not even a magical item, but more like a processed raw material.
So there is almost no need for repair, and no ability to repair.
Looking at the stone, Alka turned around and stared at everyone: "How is it? Does anyone want it?"
Apparently , no one wanted this.
Everyone shook their heads.
But Juanlu looked at it, thought of something and said, "Arka, can you help me make a frame based on this stone... well, like an oven."
Although Juanlu was the last one to board the ship, he also knew that Alka had the ability to create magical items.
This crystal is small enough, only about half the size of a head, and the flame that comes out is only about ten centimeters high, but it is enough.
If you use it as a portable oven or stove, it's pretty good.
When Alka heard Juanlu's words, he immediately understood what he meant.
After looking at the crystal in my hand, an idea already came to my mind. It’s not a bad idea.
He smiled and said, "No problem, we'll discuss the plan later."
Then this stone belongs to Juanlu, or of course it belongs to everyone, but the kitchen utensils must of course be used by Juanlu.
Then it was the ring. When Alka picked up the ring, he saw the dirt inside and couldn't help but clean it.
After cleaning up, he nodded with satisfaction.
Looking at the ring, I began to study it carefully. Compared with the stone, this ring was much more precise, although time still left traces on it.
But it was not much, and it could reach normal standards after a little repair. Alka put on the Precision Hand and started repairing it on the spot.
By doing this, you can also understand the ability of this ring more quickly.
After a simple repair, Alka put it directly on his finger and demonstrated it to everyone.
"This is a chain ring. By spending magic power, you can create a magic chain to bind the enemy."
As Alka spoke, he infused magic power into the ring, and a light pink magic chain appeared on the palm of his hand and extended out.
As the magic power increased, the chain became longer and longer, floating in the air.
Then Alka suddenly infused magic power, and the end of the chain suddenly grew a lot longer and shot directly towards Jason.
Before he could react, it completely wrapped him up.
"Damn it, let me go Alka."
The tied up Jason was pulled up by the chains.
After shaking him twice, Alka put him down and removed the chains.
"How is it? Not bad, right? This chain has a strong binding and dragging effect. It should be a spell effect. The longest length should be 15 meters, which is definitely enough for use."
Alka said, taking off the ring and placing it on the table.
Waiting for everyone's choice.
Jason straightened his clothes, looked at the ring, thought for a moment and said, "This thing should be more suitable for Porro."
After all, Porro is strong enough. If he has this chain ring, it can help him trap the enemy better, or do other things.
Thinking about Porro's body shape, Alka shook his head and said, "No, this ring is a custom-made one. It cannot be enlarged, and I cannot modify it. Therefore, it can only be used by people of normal body shape."
Hearing this, Xia Daiti thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll use it."
Her main means of attack is still to use her fists, and her strength is the greatest in the team except for Pororo.
With chains that can extend out, she can better trap the enemy.
Hearing what Xiadaiti said, Alka nodded and handed the ring to her.
No one objected to this.
And then there is the last one.
It is also the most valuable one among them.
It was a brown glove, and Alka studied it for a long time.
The construction of this glove is quite sophisticated, and both the material used inside and the leather wrapped outside are extremely tough.
As a result, even after such a long time, the gloves are still preserved in very good condition and have not been damaged by the passage of time.
Alka then put the glove directly on his left hand, and magic power flowed into his hand and was sucked into the glove.
He opened his five fingers and squeezed them, looking at the crystals on the back of his hand and on his wrist, which were already beginning to emit light along with the magic power.
Alka stood up and walked directly to the deck outside, then faced the sea below.
A circular outline appeared in front of the glove, and magic power gathered.
A cone-shaped pink misty light shot out, smashed directly into the sea, and then exploded.
It caused waves of water drops to fall on the deck.
With Alka's control, more magic bullets were fired out, continuously bombarding the sea surface below.
Can also fire continuously.
The surrounding decks were like rain.
After shooting fiercely for a while, Alka stopped, took off his gloves, turned around and looked at everyone.
"This is a very good long-range offensive equipment, which can be called [Magic Bullet Launching Gloves]. It can launch magic bullets according to the different properties of magic power, and the power of the magic bullets can be adjusted."
Alka just demonstrated to everyone how to use these gloves.
He held it in his hand and shook it.
"So, who of you wants it?"
This thing is actually suitable for him, but Alka doesn't like the style of this thing because the gloves are a bit thick.
This would seriously affect the movement of his left arm, causing his left hand to be unable to perform any throwing or some magic moves except launching magic bullets.
This is a bit of a loss for him.
There is no difference between launching magic bullets and casting cards. There is a conflict between the two, and there is no scalability of cards.
After a brief discussion, the equipment finally fell into Jason's hands.
After all, Jason has a special liking for shooting, and this equipment does not mean that it can automatically track you once you send it out.
Just like a gun, it also requires aiming.
Xia Daiti uses two-handed close combat, and she might use her gloves to hit people directly during a fight, which is obviously not suitable for her.
Not to mention that she never uses guns, not even if she is killed.
It seems that he has some unspeakable secret, perhaps his shooting talent is too poor, but no one said this.
Not to mention Julia, her fighting style is totally incompatible with these gloves.
The next one is Juanlu . To be honest, they haven’t seen Juanlu fighting yet.
The main reason is that I have never encountered it before, and Juanlu has been learning spells recently.
After all, there was no such opportunity before. After all, he was not from any powerful force, he was just a traveler.
The spells are all relatively common, and there is no systematic way to use them.
I haven't figured out my position yet, so naturally I didn't try to get the gloves.
Jason wore the gloves and faced the sea in the distance, and a circle of light appeared in front of the gloves.
One light bullet after another flew out.
Since Jason's magic power is rich in holy light attributes, the magic bullet naturally turns into a light bullet.
For example, if this glove was worn by Julia, she would fire ice bombs.
The gloves have good plasticity and are a very good offensive equipment.
Watching this scene, Alka rubbed his chin, and suddenly a good idea came to his mind.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Jason, come to the manufacturing hall below tomorrow, and I'll see if I can make some modules for your gloves so that your gloves can fire ammunition with other attributes."
Hearing Alka's words, Jason stopped firing the magic bullets.
"Of course it's no problem, but is it possible?"
"What do you mean, you look down on my skills?"
"I didn't say that you're only good at making dolls, right? You know."
Lucelia, who was standing next to him, picked up the needle on her back and stabbed Jason with it.
