The sudden attack left everyone present unable to react for a moment.
The person hit by Jason's ice bomb was none other than the Chamber of Commerce member who had just spoken.
It could be said that the two of them were not familiar with each other at all, and almost no one could react.
The man himself did not expect that he would be attacked suddenly. Looking at the ice bomb flying towards him, he stood there in a daze.
However, Balazs' strength is there. Even with Jason's sudden attack, he still reacted at the last moment.
The shield burning with blazing flames ignited directly in the air and blocked the ice bomb.
"What are you doing?" Balazs asked himself, staring at Jason.
The flame in his hand turned into a slender blade, which he raised and pointed directly at Jason.
The Chamber of Commerce members behind him also took out their weapons and gathered together in an instant.
Then, looking at Alka with a frown on his face, he began to slowly retreat while protecting his guild members.
Beware of sudden attacks from Alka and his men.
Without waiting for Alka and the others to ask.
Jason said loudly: "There is something wrong with that person. He just exuded strong malice."
Seeing that his surprise attack had failed, Jason did not hide anything and told the reason why he had suddenly attacked.
As a crystal dragon, Urulius has powers related to the mind. From birth, in order to ensure the safety of the young dragons, they can sense any malice related to it.
Baraz turned to look at his team members, frowning at him.
He had just experienced betrayal, and the pain of betrayal was still deeply engraved in his mind.
Even if he had eliminated the traitors in the team, he could not guarantee that he was really clean.
So when he heard that there was a problem with someone in his team, he did not refute it for a moment, but instead became suspicious.
"President, don't believe him. How could I be a traitor? I was just... scared by that fishman." The man explained hurriedly.
The sudden change made his lie so clumsy.
Porro turned his head and looked at everyone. He wanted to see where the fishmen were.
Then he saw everyone looking at him.
"Ah? Me?"
He pointed at himself in confusion, and a noticeable frown appeared on the shark's head.
He is famous for his handsomeness in the mermaid tribe. Does he have good taste?
Isn't this an obvious lie?
"Xadaiti!"
Alka didn't say much, just called Xia Deti's name softly.
In an instant, a [Ring of Light] appeared on Xia Daiti's forehead, and his speed increased rapidly, turning into a beam of light.
He bypassed the blocking wall of fire and came to the side of the man, then shot out a beam of light whip kick.
Everyone only felt a flash of light before their eyes.
The man was caught off guard and was shot directly, flying backwards and hitting the tree trunk next to him heavily.
The branches and leaves from the tree fell down and covered him.
All that could be heard was his wailing.
And this time.
Balazs just frowned and looked at the man who had fallen under the tree stump.
"Feba, why?"
The excuse was too lame, and Baraz knew him well enough.
The panic in her eyes, no matter how well she hid it, made him, who had been sensitive recently, suspicious.
"Why, of course it is..."
The man named Feiba had a bitter expression and obviously had his own difficulties. It seemed that he wanted to say something else.
However, a card had exploded beside him, and five water chains spurted out, completely binding his limbs and waist.
"Knock him out."
Alka had no habit of listening carefully to his enemies, so who knew if he had any follow-up.
To be on the safe side, it’s better to knock him out and search him first. It won’t be too late to ask him later.
Xia Daiti's figure disappeared, and when he appeared again, he had kicked Feiba into the air and made him fly backwards. After spinning twice, he fell to the mud.
A cloud of mud and sand was stirred up.
At this time, he had fallen to the ground with his eyes rolled back, completely losing consciousness.
Five water chains were still tied tightly around his body.
Balazs walked over with a frown on his face. The members of the Chamber of Commerce following behind him had already clenched their weapons and remained alert.
This time, he was no longer on guard against Alka and the others, but also against their companions.
They were equally exhausted by the traitors.
"The space is unstable, be careful!" Julia suddenly felt the changes in the surrounding environment and shouted.
Although he didn't know what this meant, Balazs still stopped for a moment.
Xia Daiti jumped back and turned into a beam of light, returning to the team.
At this time, it was next to Feiba's body.
A long and narrow space crack appeared there, and a pair of broad hands wearing gray-black leather gloves stretched out from the crack and broke it open violently.
Accompanied by a strange creaking sound.
The space was directly expanded into a door.
The figure inside also appeared.
This is a man who is two meters tall and extremely strong. He stands there like a thick marble pillar.
The huge size does not make people feel fat, it just makes people feel unusually intimidating.
There were some small scars on his face, and he was staring at everyone present with a serious expression.
Those grayish-yellow eyes pierced people like needles as they swept across the crowd.
He was wearing a military-like uniform with a metal medal on his chest.
The shining red cross star on his chest shows his identity.
He walked out of the space gate slowly, with his hands behind his back, facing the vigilant crowd, completely unconcerned.
People are constantly pouring out of the space gate.
The space gate was not completely closed until ten silent soldiers, also in military uniforms, stood behind him.
At this moment, Balazs' expression changed completely, his eyes widened and his face was full of shock.
"K, General Kriel."
At this moment, his mind was extremely confused, and countless incomprehensible thoughts flooded into his mind.
Alka and others who were slightly behind were looking at the person in front of them and the soldiers behind him.
The power emanating from this general is terrifying, and Alka's dream catcher is frantically sending danger signals.
It is definitely an existence that they cannot afford to offend.
The Kriel general looked at Faba at his feet, poked his head with his toes, and found that he had just fainted, then raised his hand and shook it.
The two soldiers behind him immediately came forward and carried Feiba to the back.
Then General Kriel turned his attention to Baraz .
"Mr. Balazs, I'm sorry to meet you in this situation."
The voice was serious yet polite.
It just didn't seem to match his serious expression.
Balazs looked at him, his expression gradually calmed down, and Arkainen saw that his expression seemed to have a hint of despair.
He frowned and asked in confusion, "So it was you? You asked those people to deliberately suppress me and create trouble for my Chamber of Commerce, right?"
"A little trick."
Hearing the general in front of him nod in agreement, all the doubts in Balazs' mind were resolved.
No wonder even after he found out the traitor, he still felt that the business practices targeting him were too inexplicable.
So that's how it is.
But I was still a little confused: "Why? I am just a small ocean merchant. Compared with people like you, I am not worth mentioning at all."
He didn't understand why General Kriel would target him. The two of them were far apart in strength, power, and status.
It's like a rich man suddenly goes to great lengths to target a beggar who's begging nearby.
Of course the beggar would feel confused.
Facing the conversation between the two, Alka and the others standing in the back kept their brows tense and alert.
Although he could not quite understand what they were saying to each other, he could roughly understand that the culprit who had caused the problems in Balazs's business and made him urgently need money to turn things around was the man in front of him who was called the General.
Judging from his attire, strength, and Balazs's unusually respectful attitude, it was clear that this man must have a special status on Southern Cross Island.
As for the reason for targeting him, Alka probably guessed it.
He has chased him all the way here, so what else could it be? He must want to come to this island, or he must want the half of the map in his hand.
"If you want the map in my hand, just tell me and I will give it to you."
If it weren't for the financial crisis caused by targeting, he wouldn't have thought of coming to this island to look for treasure to tide over the difficulties.
In addition to his status as a general, he only needs to say a word and he will be happy to give up his half-skin map.
Even shamelessly rushing to speak up.
He believed that the general would understand.
So what's the point of going to great lengths?
"You are probably the reason why Kovali is connected to that pirate. If you want, both fragments can be in your hands."
Apart from these two fragments, he really couldn't find anything else that would bother General Creel.
But there is no need to worry so much.
Faced with Balazs's question, the general remained serious and looked at him expressionlessly.
"You're calm, that's good."
"It's simple. I can't do this, but someone else needs to do it."
Looking at the general, he seemed ready to continue speaking.
Alka immediately interrupted, “Since this is your personal grudge, it doesn’t seem appropriate for us to be here as outsiders.
Don't worry, I will forget everything that happened here, and we will leave the Broken Island Chain immediately."
He felt that if he listened any further he might be silenced, so he had to interrupt.
Hearing Alka's voice, General Kriel turned to look at Alka and others.
"Your appearance surprised me. I have been observing what you have been doing on the island. I need you to help me here."
He said this without considering Alka and the others' opinions at all.
"It's just some treasure. It's just the treasure of a scumbag pirate. Why do you need to go to so much trouble?"
Balazs seemed to be determined to remain clear-headed even in death, and he continued to ask questions.
The general lowered his head slightly and looked at him: "You have a strong desire for knowledge, but it is clear that you don't seem to understand this treasure."
Then, without bothering to explain, he looked at Alka and the others and said.
"My friends, if you don't mind, can you please help me? I will let you go after I get what I want."
Alka didn't know when he was wearing a pair of glasses.
Just as he thought.
The readings of the general in front of him have already completely surpassed the third stage, and the 10 soldiers behind him have each reached the third stage.
According to their previous calculations, one needs to master at least one treasure to reach the third stage and above.
With such strength in front of them, they have almost no chance of winning.
Resistance will only lead to failure, and then they will be forced to help them.
It's just a treasure.
Alka didn't want his companions on the ship to lose their lives because of such a treasure.
"I hope you'll keep your promise."
He had no choice but to agree.
General Kriel nodded, then waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him formed a semicircle to surround the group's retreat route.
The general pointed to the ruins of the village in front of him.
"Then I'll leave it to you professionals. We will provide you with security."
Oh, and security work.
"By the way, let the little guy in my shadow come out, otherwise I can't guarantee anything."
He said quietly.
Alka quickly called out the doll girl hiding in its shadow.
Several shadows flashed by, and several assassin-like puppet girls broke away from his shadow.
The last puppet girl to fall was grabbed by him.
Seeing this behavior.
Alka and his companions instantly had an urge to take action, and everyone was ready to take out their weapons.
The general raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm just a little curious."
He took a look at the doll girl who was struggling in his hand and trying to get out, then opened his hands and let her go.
"It turns out to be just a toy. It's very well made."
He realized that these puppet girls were created and were not a naturally existing race at all.
This made him slightly disappointed.
Alka and his companions walked towards the abandoned village, and the soldiers behind them followed slowly.
Balazs came to Alka and the others and said, "Sorry, I didn't know..."
Alka shook his head, signaling him not to say anything more.
It is obviously wrong to say that this matter is all Balazs's fault.
It's just that Alka and his friends accidentally stumble into the plan of a local powerful man.
Not to mention that he also killed one of the other person's pawns and got something important.
Naturally, he became someone else's pawn.
Both of them are pawns, there is nothing to apologize for.
"What is this general doing on the island?" Alka asked nearby.
He was somewhat curious and also needed to understand something about the enemy.
Balazs looked at the sky and sighed helplessly.
"He is the ruler of the port town, and I heard that his strength has reached perfection in the fourth stage and is being promoted to the fifth stage."
"He is also the brother of His Majesty the King, and a general of the Empire. He is also known as the 'Invisible Hand'. It is said that no one can see his attacks."
Listening to General Creel's situation, thinking about his means of attack.
Alka couldn't help but think of the pirate group that they had fought on the island before.
The attack method used by the pirate captain was also an invisible attack.
It seems that I got it from him.
Are there any spells derived from treasures?
"What should we do now?" Xia Daiti asked as he walked beside her.
"I definitely can't beat him, I just hope he can keep his promise."
Alka said helplessly.
Looking at the crude map in his hand, he decided to take his time.
After all, treasure hunting is not an easy thing.
Take a little more time and come up with a good solution.
He never thought of entrusting his life to someone else's promise.
You didn't think about really helping him, and he is now thinking about how to escape.
As long as we can get back to the boat, that's fine.
After all, as long as they sailed directly forward and left the Broken Island Chain, it would be unlikely for the general of Southern Cross Island to catch up.
Moreover, with the speed of the Voice of the Dawn, plus the acceleration provided by the marine species on the ship, it is unlikely that any ship could catch up.
But the premise of all problems is how to escape?
There are 10 enemies in the third stage and 1 in the fourth stage.
When the fourth stage is completed, there may be seventy or eighty spirals, and it also controls a treasure.
This is something they can't afford now.
After hearing Alka's answer, several people stopped asking questions. They roughly understood what Alka meant.
Besides, the enemy was right behind them and their ears were not deaf, so there was no way they could hide their conversation.
Damn, I’m so unlucky. It’s just a holy grail-level treasure. Is it that serious?
Alka could only curse silently in his heart.
There won’t be anything wrong with this treasure, right?
Then he started to lead everyone around the entire village, looking here, searching there, and even started digging holes.
It’s not surprising that the treasure is buried in a pit.
And Alka has also been to the place where the golden light is to check.
Just as the treasure information showed, nothing was found.
Even though Xia Daiti used silver ripples to explore downwards, he did not find any pits or the like below.
Apparently the treasure was deliberately hidden in some unexpected place.
Looking at this slightly old house, Alka had to turn his attention elsewhere.
"Dig down from here and see if there's anything buried."
Alka came under a tree again and looked at everyone and said.
Of course there is nothing under this tree.
But the fact that this tree grows here is a very conspicuous sign. If you want to find treasure, it is usually buried here.
When digging, they dug very slowly, and Porro would even break the shovel from time to time.
Finally, the general had no choice but to send two soldiers to help.
And so it went on until night fell.
The whole village is full of potholes.
But nothing was gained.
The soldiers behind General Kriel lit the bonfire again, and the unconscious Feiba also woke up .
He seemed to be talking to the general, and looked in the direction of Alka and the others from time to time.
Jason, who was sitting by the campfire, watched this scene.
He said to Alka who was staring at the fire and thinking, "It seems that he is reporting our situation. It may not be easy to drag it on like this."
Alka looked up.
Of course he knew that delaying like this wouldn't last long.
He just used the time to think of a way to escape.
The general came over, sat by the fire, and looked at the silent Alka and others.
Looking at the mud and sand on their bodies.
"My time is limited. If I don't get the results I want in the next day and night, then maybe I'll have to break my promise."
"After all, trash doesn't deserve respect."
His eyes were sharp, and invisible pressure was exerted on Alka and the others.
Alka and the others were left unable to move.
This is a warning.
Feeling the pressure on his body, Alka sighed helplessly inwardly. This strength was obviously higher than he thought.
It only takes a moment to control them all.
So this is what the invisible force means.
There is no chance of winning whether you challenge head-on or escape.
We must think of a method with a higher chance of success, and it would be best if we can delay him.
In this way, Alka can escape quickly through the Mirror of Travel.
Thinking about everyone's treasures and how to cooperate.
Although thinking this in his heart, Alka nodded and said, "I already have an idea today, but I need to know more information."
"After all, we have just arrived here. Discovering this island is already our limit. We need more information about this treasure."
