Chapter 235 Space Rift
The sudden space rift began to absorb the surrounding objects.
The first thing to be absorbed was the surrounding soil and rocks, pouring into the space crack like water.
However, Alka and the others had already moved away after being reminded by Julia and came to the top of the pit.
I can no longer feel the suction generated by the space here, so I feel temporarily safe.
"Why is there a space rift here?" Xia Daiti asked with a frown.
In order to draw the map, they had seen space rifts in the previous three days, and they were exactly the same as this thing.
And Julia, who noticed something was wrong, was obviously able to answer this question.
"This spatial rift was created because the space we were just in was broken, the rules were in chaos, and the collision caused problems."
Julia frowned slightly, but said helplessly: "If the rules of the surrounding space are perfect, there will be no such problem, but... it's too chaotic."
"This rift won't become a permanent rift, then we'll have added another dangerous area to this place."
Simon thought about it and said with a little embarrassment.
This made everyone silent.
After all, they will leave the island later, so if this place becomes a dangerous area, it has nothing to do with them.
But it’s hard for the residents of this island.
Julia opened her blue eyes and stared quietly ahead, staring at the spatial rift in the ruins.
I watched the surrounding soil being sucked in, and after all the soil was sucked in, the mud around the crack and the rubble of the ruins were sucked in together.
Although the material of the ruins is hard and can be preserved for such a long time, it is of no use in the face of the destructive nature of the space rift.
The ruins they had just excavated had already begun to be destroyed, and the pits were becoming deeper and deeper.
Looking at the space crack that was still absorbing the surrounding matter, Julia suddenly said, "Don't worry too much. This space crack won't last long. It's already starting to become unstable."
Everything that affects the environment and disrupts the surrounding rules can be accurately perceived by Julia.
Just finished speaking.
I saw purple lightning and crackling sounds appearing where the space rift was.
The crack, which was originally as long as a crack, began to sway from side to side, and then was pulled and twisted like rubber.
“Crack!”
A violent shattering sound was heard.
As the sound disappeared, the crack in the space also disappeared, turning into a faint purple light and vanishing.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the space rift completely disappear.
If it's not permanent, then you can accept it.
"It's safe now." Julia closed her eyes, felt the surrounding environment for a while and said.
Look at the damage caused by the space rift.
In addition to helping them suck in the surrounding soil, even the ruins they had dug out below were completely destroyed.
From the location where the space rift appeared all the way upwards, all the ruins extending out to the ground disappeared, and the bottom of the pit appeared as the soil and gravel were sucked in, forming a deeper tunnel.
Revealing the ruins below, which were buried even deeper.
Alka looked at the deep pit below and the soil that slid down after the space rift disappeared.
He was sure that he had not seen it wrongly, there were several objects with white borders below.
Obviously, they are ordinary treasures with white value. There is no shortage of these ordinary treasures on the map. They are almost densely packed all over the map. All the blue points are surrounded by white dots overlapping with them.
When Alka knew that the entire ruins were buried deep underground, he stopped paying attention to the white spots.
Because who knows how deep they are buried underground? It is obviously not cost-effective to spend so much effort and time for some white spots of unknown value.
But now that a hole has appeared, it would be a waste not to take it. Thinking of this, Alka jumped directly from the top of the hole.
The rest of the people jumped down as well.
"Many ruins have been destroyed, but ruins deeper inside have also been revealed." Lucillia said as she inspected the ruins.
Then he looked at the more ruins that were revealed and started to examine them.
"Is there anything?" Xiadaiti stood next to Alka and asked as he watched him squatting at the bottom of the pit and digging gently.
Alka nodded: "I just saw something down there, but I don't know what it is. Let's dig it out and take a look."
Seeing Alka's actions, the others also came up to help with the digging.
The powerful suction generated by the space exercise just now made the surrounding soil extremely loose, making it easy to dig.
As the digging continued, clumps of objects wrapped in soil were thrown out.
Although these things looked no different from mud lumps, in Alka's eyes they were all wrapped in white borders.
Everyone roughly knew what Alka wanted, so they threw everything they dug into a pile.
Alka looked towards the pile of mud. Although most of them had no white edges, some of them were obviously white objects.
"Okay, that's enough. There are no valuables left." Alka said after looking at the map in his hand.
The white dots have disappeared where they are now.
It looks like only three or four almost overlapping white spots have disappeared, but in fact they are worth more.
When items are stacked together, the white border only shows the most valuable one.
Jason and Simon were already squatting beside the pile of mud, looking at the things on it.
"What are these things? They are completely covered with mud." Jason washed them with clean water for a long time, but all he came out was mud.
Simon, who was standing next to him, took the mud in his hand and looked at it: "It has been buried underground for too long. It should be gold."
Then he picked up a smaller piece of mud next to him, which was about the size of his palm, looked at it and said, "This should be something like a gem."
Listening to Simon's words, Jason looked at the pile of mud and then looked at what he had in his hand.
Silently said: "So how did you figure that out?"
Simon said nothing, but raised his right hand in front of everyone, revealing his metal arm and the conspicuous treasure index finger.
The magic power surged in the palm of his hand, and the mud on the mud blocks began to shake and was quickly peeled off.
Various golden objects were controlled and flew out from the mud.
Piled aside.
As a mechanic, Simon can accurately manipulate some metals, gold is naturally no problem.
Some gold products were piled together.
Simon used the same trick again, and the items inside the various gems were also peeled off and piled together.
Looking at the remaining mud, he waved his hand.
What was exposed were various metal objects that had long been decayed and dilapidated, which obviously could no longer be called treasures.
"Wait a moment, let me take a look first." Lucillia, who was checking the ruins not far away, came over quickly with a few jumps.
Looking at the pile of gold products, he began to study them carefully.
Most of these gold products have a peculiar appearance, especially those engraved with dense patterns and unknown symbols.
The same is true for those gemstone crystal products, which even have arrays similar to spells engraved on them.
These are obviously not just decorations.
The most important thing is that the patterns and texts on these valuable items are very well preserved, countless times better than those on the ruins.
Everyone picked up these valuables curiously and examined them.
At this moment, Simon suddenly stood up, and then a flickering construct ball appeared in his hand.
He looked at the ball in his hand, then looked up at the sky, reminding everyone: "16 hours of daytime have passed, and night will soon come."
Since he came to the Boundless Ocean, he has calculated every day and night accurately.
The shortest night was 18 hours, so when he came out, he set a simple alarm clock for himself that would go off every 16 hours.
Hearing this, Alka said , "Put these things you have found into your pocket ring, and let's go back and take a look. This is not a good place."
Today's action was fruitful.
Everyone stuffed these things into their pocket rings.
"Well...are we just going to leave this hole...here?" Mathilda asked softly.
Hearing this, Alka scratched his forehead in annoyance.
If it was before, it would be fine. After all, the soil they excavated was piled on top of the pit, and they just needed to push it in to bury it.
But the space rift just now not only made the pit deeper, but also absorbed the soil they had previously piled next to it.
"Someone is coming." Xia Daiti said suddenly.
Then he closed his eyes, sensed for a while, and added: "It's Bai Shi's patrol team."
Just as she finished speaking, Bai Shi and others appeared in the dense forest in the distance.
Looking at Alka and the others who had already climbed up the pit, he waved.
When Kuaibude came over, he was attracted by the hole at first sight.
I walked over and looked down.
"Wow! Is this what you guys have accomplished in a day? But I remember there was an exposed ruin there? Am I mistaken?"
Bai Shi said in amazement, then pointed around the pit.
He remembered that when he came here before, there should have been ruins exposed inside. Why was there only a hole left now?
"Yes, you remembered it wrong." Jason said confidently beside him.
"Yeah?"
"Um."
While the two were talking, the others were already using shovels to shovel away the surrounding dirt and cover the hole.
They were going to dig up the surrounding dirt to fill it up.
Seeing this scene, Bai Shi asked in confusion: "Are you going to bury it now? We have worked hard to dig for a whole day, aren't you going to continue digging tomorrow?"
After digging for a whole day, we dug such a big hole. It would be a shame to bury it.
And he saw the exposed ruins below. Aren’t these the purpose of Alka and the others?
"We've looked at the ruins and found nothing useful. So we have to fill them up to avoid affecting you," Alka said with a smile.
Hearing this, Shiraishi walked over with slightly widened eyes and patted Alka's shoulder solemnly.
"Honestly, my friend, it would be nice if all the outsiders who came to the island were like you."
His tone was full of sighs.
He shook his head helplessly.
From what he said, it was clear that they had dealt with the traces left by these outsiders more than once.
After all, if anyone comes to this island and knows something about the situation on the island, if they are curious, they will definitely want to see what is under these ruins.
"But if you want to fill it out, remember to fill it out quickly, because night is coming."
Just as he finished speaking, he saw several white birds flying across the sky and landing towards the dense forest.
"Well, we don't have much time."
As he said this, he immediately tilted his head and said something to the hunter team members behind him.
The hunters came over immediately and quickly covered the hole with Alka and the others.
The hole was quickly filled up, and the surrounding area became noticeably shorter.
After quickly burying it, Bai Shi looked at the small round pit that was half a meter lower than the surrounding area.
Something seems to be wrong, but I can't put my finger on it.
A team member behind him was saying something, and he immediately collected his thoughts.
"Hurry, hurry, let's go back, time is running out."
Having said that, Bai Shi followed everyone and took his team members to run quickly towards the town.
It didn't take long before they saw the first watchtower.
The sky was still bright at this time.
After seeing the watchtower, everyone's pace immediately slowed down.
Coming here means entering the town and no longer having to worry about some uncertain dangers at night.
It was not until we arrived at the entrance of the town that it started to get dark rapidly.
At this moment, Bai Shi suddenly thought of something and clenched his right fist into the palm of his left hand.
"I see!"
"What do you mean?" Alka next to him looked at him puzzledly.
"When we were filling the hole just now, I was wondering, and now I remembered, where did the soil you dug out go?" Looking at Bai Shi's eyes full of wisdom.
Alka was even more confused.
They saw that Bai Shi didn't ask this question before, so they thought he had encountered this problem many times.
Didn't you notice it at all?
Alka simply recounted what had happened to them.
"You mean you encountered a rift that suddenly opened during the day? Then you are really unlucky.
This situation does exist, but it is rare to see it.”
After a brief chat, everyone parted ways.
Alka and others had just walked into the town and were about to walk towards the house they rented.
They saw a group of people on the road, walking towards them face to face.
These people are just like them, out of tune with the things around them.
The appearance and skin color of a normal human being, and the clothing style are completely different from those of the surroundings.
Alka had seen a large number of people in this team.
Of course, Alka was the only one who had met them.
In a dream.
Alka looked at the leader of the merchant fleet that came to the island.
Wearing a tight leather armor and a long sailor's sword on his waist, he is an ordinary-looking middle-aged man, but he looks quite imposing.
They also saw Alka and others.
He ignored Alka and others who were in the lead and looked at the tall Porro, the four-armed Matlisa with a human body and a snake tail, and the puppet girl standing on everyone's shoulders.
These obviously non-human races made him even more concerned.
Then he nodded politely to them.
There was not much communication, just passing each other.
Until I turned the corner and could no longer see Alka and the others.
A man standing behind the captain took a few steps forward and said, "Captain."
"Well, find a chance to get to know them, remember to be kind, and go get some gifts from the ship."
"Ah?" These words obviously confused the person behind him.
Although he was not as strong as his captain, he was not weak either. He could clearly feel that Alka and the others were not very strong overall.
At least none of them could compare to himself and the captain.
So he was somewhat confused about what his captain said.
"They are from the Four Gods Sea , and they have definitely just arrived here not long ago. It wouldn't be a bad thing for us to make friends with them."
After saying that, he muttered to himself: "Damn it, how did this team come together? It's really incomprehensible."
The captain's words shocked the first mate behind him.
He didn't realize at all that Alka and the others looked like they were from the Four Gods Sea.
Then he frowned and couldn't help asking: "Then why don't we..."
Hearing this, the captain who was walking in front suddenly stopped where he was, and the team members following behind the two of them stopped immediately.
He only saw the captain turn his head and stare at him, then lean his head slightly closer.
I whispered in his ear: "If you want to die, don't take us with you. I won't take my crew to die."
Without waiting for his answer, he continued forward with the people behind him.
Upon hearing this, the first mate's expression changed, and then he immediately followed.
"Come on, Captain, it was just a joke."
Although he didn't know what his captain had seen, since the team leader said so, he would definitely give up the idea immediately.
He knew himself well and knew that he was no match for the captain in terms of vision or strength.
Otherwise he wouldn't be the captain.
