Chapter 324 Getting Busy
"A treasure?"
Alka repeated that he had not expected that a god would ask him to help her find a treasure.
"Yes, a treasure that, in today's terms, is called a Holy Grail-level treasure.
I always wonder why it has to be called the Holy Grail. Wouldn’t it be better to use another name?
This kind of thing will make God think bad things. "
As she spoke she also made a slight complaint.
Alka simply skipped over her next sentence.
"Why do you have to ask me to help you get it? You are a god, and I am just a small shrimp."
"Do you believe it when you say it?" The flower fairy in front of him covered her mouth and asked with a smile.
“Although I am in a weakened state now, I am still essentially a god, am I not?
Some things can't be hidden from my eyes."
"In the real world, you may really be just like what you say, a small shrimp.
But in this other world, in this spiritual dream world, you are already a well-known and important figure.
You just didn’t notice it.”
As Alka spoke, he felt his body floating over and directly in front of the flower fairy.
Her looming and graceful devilish figure is in full view.
After reading it once, he calmed himself down and strengthened his mental defense.
Immediately, my mind became more resolute.
Humph, nothing more than that.
The flower fairy stretched out her soft, boneless, slender, white and smooth hand and touched Alka's chest.
"You have a fragment of the gate in your body, and you are also a king of dreams, and you are highly bound to this world."
She dissected the nature of Alka in the dream.
"So in the dream world, you are a powerful being who can definitely help me. Don't underestimate yourself."
As she spoke, she smiled and touched Alka's face with her finger, so that Alka could clearly see the pink and white flower decoration on her index finger nail.
But Alka's attention was on what she had just said.
"The gatekeeper?"
What is this name?
“Don’t you know that the fragment of God you ate is for guarding the gate?
A god who is half reality and half dream. This trait makes him naturally in charge of the door to reality and dreams.
So Safa Mingtong is just a gatekeeper, that's all right."
He smiled slightly, attracting the surrounding dream creatures to come closer.
"Don't you realize that the barrier between reality and dreams is very weak for you?
Even though this world is broken, it doesn't mean you can travel back and forth so easily with your abilities.
At this stage, I can't do it, like you can easily go between dreams and reality. "
After hearing this, Alka nodded. So that's how it was. He got some very interesting information.
But why did he have to say that he was guarding the gate? It seemed that the original divine power of the fragment he used was not very strong among the gods.
If he is strong enough.
No other god would use such a joking and derogatory term.
"So what am I going to do?"
Knowing he couldn't refuse, Alka asked directly.
"It's very simple. I will show you the way and you will get there in reality. You just need to enter the dream from the place I said, and you will be able to find the hidden treasure."
"Can't we just go through the dream?" Alka asked with a frown.
"If I can get through the dream, then can't I get through it myself?"
All right.
"That is a hidden mezzanine. You must enter the dream from reality to meet the conditions for entry."
After the flower fairy explained it again, Alka nodded to show that he understood.
"I'll try to help you find it."
"Thank you, you are such a good boy. Are you interested in becoming my knight?" The flower fairy tilted her head and looked at Alka and said.
Before Alka could answer, a crack suddenly appeared in the dream void next to him, and a missile condensed with light hit the flower fairy's head directly.
"Ouch." The sudden attack made the flower fairy rub her head.
The seductive and mature aura from before disappeared in an instant.
"Well, it seems that God really values you."
He said helplessly, stretching out his hand and waving at Alka, motioning him to come closer.
"Come here, kid, I'll have to give you a deposit if I ask you to help me, right?
I am a god who follows rules, and you have a future worth investing in."
Alka did not refuse. It was obvious that the unknown golden missile just now gave him confidence.
He could clearly sense the breath of the Virgin Mary from the golden missile.
When Alka came to the flower fairy.
The body proportions of the flower fairy in the dream are a whole circle larger than Alka's.
Like a little giant.
The flower fairy raised her hands, gently held Alka's head, lowered her head slightly, and kissed Alka's forehead.
A faint flower mark appeared where she kissed.
"A small blessing." He said and waved to Alka.
Although this action caught Alka off guard, he still forced himself to remain calm and nodded.
The figure disappeared from the spot.
The doppelganger in the dream merged with Alka in reality.
Alka, who had been standing in the garden, opened his eyes.
The faint flower mark also appeared on his forehead.
"Fortunately it wasn't serious." Alka said with some lingering fear.
Although he had just appeared calm in the dream, he was definitely facing a real god, even if this god was very weak, or even in a state of falling.
Fortunately, although this god looks a little eccentric, he is at least amiable.
So it didn't put too much pressure on Alka.
There were footsteps behind me.
The big gardener came over.
"Have you finished talking to my God?"
Alka turned and nodded.
Then he noticed that the head gardener was standing there in a daze, his eyes staring at his forehead.
Alka was sure that he was not mistaken.
A hint of envy flashed in the old man's eyes.
Although I envy you, it is fleeting.
When the gardener looked at Alka and then nodded, his attitude became noticeably more friendly.
"Since you have accepted the mission from my God, please feel free to ask for any help you need."
Alka nodded. He could now clearly feel that there was a vague direction guiding him.
This should be what the flower fairy said, the guidance of direction.
"I need to sort out the tasks assigned to me by the flower fairy. Excuse me, I'll take my leave now."
The head gardener nodded and escorted Alka away.
Staring at Alka's back as he left.
"A young man with a promising future."
Alka left and returned to the flower forest.
At the entrance, we met Jason and his two companions who were also returning.
At this time, Jason and the other two were walking side by side in front. They didn't chat and seemed to be thinking about something.
"Why are you three here?"
"Alka?" Jason was a little confused when he saw Alka behind him.
Curiously asked, "Aren't you supposed to be outside?"
Why is he alone?
"We came back a long time ago. That place is very dangerous, and it is not suitable for us to explore deeply at a depth of 160 meters."
After hearing Alka's simple explanation, the three nodded, not in the mood to ask further questions.
After saying that, Alka turned around and looked towards where the three people had just walked past.
That place obviously didn't look like a tavern or something like that, nor did it look like a place where one should go to collect intelligence.
Not to mention there are so many soldiers outside, it looks a bit like a military camp training ground or something.
It is a more important and serious occasion.
"How did you get out of there?"
Jason sighed at Alka's words.
"This is a long story, let's talk about it when we get back."
Alka nodded, it seemed to be something more important.
The harvest today should be quite significant.
After that, the four of them walked together and soon returned to the flower forest.
Entering the hall, everyone was doing their own things.
"Why did you come back together?"
"We just happened to meet on the road."
However, as soon as Alka came in, he attracted the attention of Xiadaiti and Pororo.
The two men came over and circled around Alka, staring at him with strange eyes.
"What are you two doing looking at me like that?"
Xiadaiti said nothing more, but approached Alka with his eyes narrowed.
He put his nose against Alka's body and sniffed gently.
He showed an expression of having solved a case.
"...a faint floral scent. I've smelled it on the street before. This scent should belong to a woman."
Pororo next to him also nodded.
"It's very strong and very special. It's definitely not something that comes from flowers on the street. And it won't stick to you unless you lie down in the garden and take a nap."
Why do you act so smart and even have such clear logic at a time like this?
Alka complained madly in his mind.
And he was sure that he detected an expression of gloating in the different eyes of the human Pororo.
Although this place is filled with various floral scents, these scents are clearly layered and do not mix together to make people feel uncomfortable.
Like an ordinary street or a space similar to that in a greenhouse, these peanuts are fresh and elegant, as if they were floating by the roadside.
The floral scent on some people obviously has a very special smell, more like a faint perfume-like floral scent.
This is what happened to Alka.
The floral scents used by men and women in this place are very obviously different.
It's the kind that makes you know what gender the scent is from as soon as you smell it.
Very peculiar and interesting.
Hear what the two said.
Everyone in the hall turned their eyes to Alka.
Lucilia even jumped directly onto Alka's shoulders.
"What's that on your forehead?"
It was then that everyone noticed that there was a flower-like tattoo faintly visible on Alka's forehead, which was slightly covered by his hair.
They were certain that Alka had not had such a tattoo when he left.
Lucilia stretched out her hands and pulled Alka's face and nose hard.
He even drilled out his soul and crashed into Alka's body.
"Hmm... I didn't find any signs of disguise or control ."
Looking at everyone like this, Alka smiled helplessly.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
"No problem..." In the end, he received unfriendly looks from Julia and Mathilda.
Even Jason and the others looked disappointed.
Looking at everyone's gaze, Alka felt even more helpless.
"I think you misunderstood."
Then he slightly parted the hair on his forehead, revealing the flower tattoo on it.
"This is a blessing from the flower fairy."
"Flower fairy? You don't mean to say that you have seen her in person, and the smell on you is also hers, transmitted to you?" Julia seemed to see through Alka and continued the narration.
"Huh? How do you know?"
Looking at the disbelieving eyes of the crowd.
"It's true. Well, let's go to that room and have a meeting to exchange our respective intelligence."
Because he had just been on the road, he also chatted with Jason and others for a while, and they also had important information to share.
We came to the room that had been specially renovated by them.
Alka then told everyone about his previous experiences in the church, including entering the dream and meeting the flower fairy.
He initially thought he was exposed because he saw the giant flower in his dream.
Later I realized that it didn't seem like it.
It might be that the strength he had improved in his dream before had begun to truly build the royal court which brought about the volatile changes.
Let the flower fairy discover it.
Because his actual body was in the flower fairy's territory, it would be too arrogant to want to hide a god next to him.
"So our mission now has changed? We have to help the flower fairy get that treasure?" Xia Dai asked.
Alka nodded: "It doesn't matter, right? Our current target is stuck, so we can use this opportunity to look for clues."
Hearing Alka's words, everyone nodded.
That's true.
It's like they now have a pass, so to speak.
They are now helping the flower fairy.
It can be said that they can now walk sideways in the official territory of the Land of Spirits.
As long as they ask for some intelligence, I believe these official forces will be very happy to share the information with them.
They will be able to use such opportunities to search for information about their current treasure.
And even if they had enough information to help, they did not have enough strength.
It also takes time to settle.
So there is actually no conflict between the two.
"We have other information here." Jason suddenly said from the side.
Hearing this, everyone turned their heads.
"We found traces of the Nafas family bloodline."
"Ah? You found this kind of information just by going out once?" Xia Daiti was a little surprised.
Because it is clearly irrelevant to the information they are looking for.
But it was inexplicably unexpected.
“It may sound strange to say it, but some of our needs have been exposed to the church in this area.”
"How did you get exposed?" Alka asked with a frown.
Hearing this question, Jason looked at him, raised his finger slightly and pointed at him.
"Me?" Alka asked in confusion.
"Yes, we didn't know it was you before, but after hearing what you said just now, we can basically be sure that it is you."
Jason said with a sudden smile on his face.
"What's going on?"
Then Jason began to narrate their entire process today to everyone.
"That is, the flower fairy conveyed her needs to her followers. These followers must have collected information about Alka and performed divination.
After all, I need Alka's help, so I must divine what Alka wants, so that I can trade with Alka without any mistakes."
Xia Daiti concluded beside him.
Jason nodded and said, “Yes, that’s what the Flower Knight said. They don’t know why we need to find the bloodline information of the Nafas family.
But that's what the divination said, so they used it as a bargaining chip to ask us to help them clean up the evil cult that was harassing them nearby."
So if they go to the church now to look for the materials they want, they may find that the materials they want have already been packaged.
Maybe they're just waiting for them to pick it up.
"Well, suddenly I feel like I have too many goals and I'm a bit busy." Alka suddenly said with a smile.
Then he said with a serious face.
"Then let's plan what we are going to do now."
Then he began to talk to everyone one by one about the records on the paper in front of him.
"The flower fairy has entrusted me to go to the giant tree and follow the instructions she has given me. Find the place and get the treasure she needs."
"Search for information about the treasure. When we are strong enough, we will go to the deep sea and get the treasure."
"Catch the cult group that is harassing us nearby. It would be best if we can capture the leader alive, because he is the bloodline of the Nafas family and the key we are missing."
“That’s what we’re trying to accomplish now, right?”
Everyone nodded.
“Okay, let’s come up with a sequence first.
The treasure is placed at the end because of your lack of strength. It will not be too late to obtain it when you become stronger.
The Flower Fairy said that it was not dangerous to obtain the treasure, it was just because no one could meet the requirements to obtain it.
So you can put this task first, but don't be too anxious.
On the way, we will look for the trace of this cultist. If we catch them, they will be the first priority target."
"In the process, I can also collect some information about treasures."
Alka said, briefly planning their next move.
Everyone around was talking one after another, starting to sort out some details and things that needed attention.
Discuss with each other.
Until it is completely clear.
"Then let's split up into teams now. Jason, the three of you will go and get the intelligence on the commission you've received tomorrow.
At least you need to have a clearer understanding of the enemy's strength.
The three of us, Xia Deti, Lucilia, and I, will go to the church tomorrow to collect the necessary information.
The rest of us can just hang out here and collect some scattered intelligence."
The teams were divided.
The sky had already turned dark.
After eating, everyone went to sleep, waiting for the arrival of tomorrow.
