Chapter 498 Returning from the Treasure Hunt
“La la la la, time to eat~”
The two puppet girls carried the breakfast tray and placed it on the dining table.
While playing, she was humming a song. After putting down the plates, the two puppet girls danced together in the air.
Since Juanlu followed Jason and the others on the treasure hunt, the puppet girls who were Juanlu's apprentices stayed with Alka and the others.
Simon sat down at the dining table early and ate the breakfast on the plate slowly.
In the past, he might not even come to eat, but now he eats slowly, mainly to sort out the thoughts in his mind.
Thinking about how to solve the problems encountered yesterday.
At this time, a crack appeared next to the dining table, leading to a small world.
Alka comes out from inside.
Lucelia swung her legs on her shoulders, her body pressed against Alka's head.
There was still a smile on his face.
Alka pulled Xiadaiti back with his right hand, and the two of them clasped their hands tightly with their fingers clasped together, and walked to the dining table and sat down.
Even the seats are closer together.
However, Simon had no understanding of these changes in details. He was still focused on the food on the plate, and no one knew what he was thinking in his mind.
Suddenly he asked, "Do you think it would be okay if we don't use gems?"
After hearing Simon's words, Alka's face was slightly confused.
It was difficult for him to focus his thoughts in other directions right now.
"ah?"
Hearing Alka's puzzled voice, Simon raised his head and stared at Alka, feeling a little strange.
"The gem is not flexible enough to bear the load. Will it work if we use another material?" he repeated.
Alka understood now and drew his attention back from other places. After a long while, he nodded.
"Maybe you can try it. I'm not sure, but I can only say that you can't hold too much hope."
Then the two of them slowly started talking while eating breakfast.
Alka would chat and laugh with Xiadaiti and Lucilia from time to time, and they were very close.
A silver thread tied the back of the chair, and then a small figure swung up and sat on Xia Daiti's shoulders.
It was Er. As soon as he sat on Xia Daiti's shoulders, Er clearly felt something was wrong.
At this time, Xiadaiti had finished his breakfast and was staring at Alka's face while he was talking, with his chin in his hand.
Er frowned in surprise and couldn't help but poking Xia Daiti's face twice with his hand.
Xia Daiti just flicked the dial casually, signaling her not to be annoying.
Weird, very weird.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you staring at Alka?"
Hearing the voice, Xia Daiti finally drew his attention back and turned to look at Er on his shoulder.
"Don't worry about it."
"Something's wrong. Something's very wrong." Er stood on Xia Daiti's shoulder and couldn't help but observe it carefully.
To others, Xia Daiti now seemed to be nothing special. But to Er, there was something very wrong with Xia Daiti.
Then he noticed that Lucilia on Alka's shoulder was also not right.
"What happened to the two of them?"
The performance of the two completely touched Er's blind spot of knowledge. He couldn't help but let go of his shoulder and pulled the two puppet girls who liked cooking away.
She decided to ask her other sisters.
However, based on the experience of the doll girls, even after they communicated with each other for a long time, they finally concluded that the two of them were having a seizure.
In other words, it is normal for such behavior to occur from time to time.
…
Lumina sat in front of Hengus, and the two of them rode on the ghost's warhorse, slowly circling the Great Library.
But Lumina's eyes were fixed on one direction, full of desire for knowledge.
Henggus sat behind Lumina and followed her gaze.
That was in the reading area of the library.
Your Majesty, Xia Deti and Lucilia were reading a book together.
There's nothing wrong with that.
But Lumina just stared at it intently, even if she went around in a circle in different directions, she would observe it from different angles.
"Lumina, what are you observing?"
"No, nothing." Lumina's voice sounded a little regretful. She didn't see the plot she wanted to see.
Instead, I saw a picture that was too harmonious.
I couldn't help but lean back and stick to Henges' soul armor.
As time goes by, everyone's daily life seems to have returned to normal.
Jason and others were searching for treasures in the distance, and would occasionally report back the information they knew.
Alka then passed on the treasure information expanded from their information to them again, which accelerated their treasure hunting progress, and so on.
Alka himself would occasionally join Simon's research, or forge some treasure carriers and observe some treasures that passed through his hands.
The more treasures he collected, the more he was able to see and discover some problems and details that he had never noticed before.
The carrier of the treasure and the divine essence of the treasure will also have more changes according to their functions, which will also help to improve his strength.
Lucilia is mastering the cursed sword and gaining a deeper understanding of soul power.
And thanks to the night's activities, her experience with souls is increasing.
Xia Daiti always meditates at night, and when there is a moon, he feels the power of the moon.
After finishing the meditation, you can directly enter the small world on the spot.
In the Brilliant City, there is a room that has been requisitioned. If anyone notices it, they will find that the light in this room will flicker every night.
In the realm of dreams, in Alka's dream bubble, a closed space was also separated.
You can always see the figure of a soul swaying inside.
There were heavy panting sounds coming from all around, but they would not spread outside of Alka's dream. Only at this moment did Alka's dream become so solid that it rejected any visitors.
Only the dream animals in the forest outside gradually got used to these noises.
Outside this enclosed space, many dream creatures would gather from time to time.
…
This day.
The door was opened.
A group of people filed in.
"Huh, I'm finally back."
A group of dusty people entered the living room.
It was Jason and his group who had returned after spending nearly a year searching for treasure outside.
Simon was sitting in the living room, writing something in his notebook with a thoughtful expression. When he saw Jason and the others coming back, he smiled, put away his notebook and stood up.
"I'm finally back. I guess I gained a lot from this treasure hunt."
Hearing Simon's words, Jason smiled and nodded.
Several women went upstairs to change into some clean and light clothes to wash off the traces of their travels.
After a long while, everyone gathered in the hall again.
"Where are Alka and the others?" Matlisa asked with some confusion.
What was rare about the crowd gathered here was that, except for Alka and the other two, everyone was there.
"They should still be resting." Simon said indifferently.
"Rest?" Julia repeated with some surprise.
Simon nodded. He didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"Are they that lazy? They've become so lax." Jason said curiously.
Because now it has been an hour and a half since the curtain of the sky was opened.
You have to know that this is a boundless ocean, where the length of night and day is equal.
Under normal circumstances, we should wake up early in the night and start doing other things.
It was a rare situation that he had not woken up during the day. This situation usually happened to Simon, not to others.
"Have you been studying very lately? Have you spent a lot of energy on it?" Matlisa asked Simon.
But looking at Simon's condition, it doesn't seem like that. If Simon was obsessed with research, he would really not rest for months at a time, especially now that he is stronger.
But now Simon is in unusually good shape. To be honest, it is rare to see Simon in such a good shape.
This shows that Simon's daily routine has been very normal for a long time recently, which is very rare for a research enthusiast like him.
Hearing this, Simon shook his head: “Our research has been stuck in a bottleneck for a long time.
So I have recently shifted my focus to other directions to see if I can find something that can replace it. I need to read more books.
Taking more rest and clearing your mind might bring you some inspiration.”
Right next to Simon's feet were several thick books piled up, all borrowed from the large library.
While everyone was chatting, a space crack appeared in the center of the living room. The crack opened into a door for traveling through, and Alka and the other two walked out.
Looking at the status of the three people.
Everyone obviously noticed that something was wrong.
This state is very, very different from when they left.
Several people narrowed their eyes and observed.
At this time, Alka came out with a smile on his face and looked energetic.
Lucilia, in her normal ghost form, put her arms around Alka's shoulders and hung behind him with a grin.
Xia Daiti walked out holding Alka's hand.
The three of them were talking and laughing, but I don't know what they were talking about.
But it can be seen that the relationship between the three has become very close and harmonious, far better than before.
It seemed normal, but Jason and others who had been working together for many years found something wrong.
This is too obvious.
"You're back. Thank you for your hard work." Alka said with a surprised smile as he looked at the group of people who appeared in the living room.
Although he knew that Jason and others would come back soon.
Xiadaiti and Lucilia also walked towards Julia and the others.
"Did nothing really happen?" Jason asked quietly, sitting next to Simon.
"What happened?" Simon turned around and asked with a frown, unable to help but think about what the problem was in his mind.
Looking at Simon's expression, Jason roughly understood and waved his hand: "It's okay."
Why would he ask Simon such a thing?
Communicate with Alka who is walking over.
Julia took Xia Deti's hand and looked at her face seriously.
"What's wrong?" Looking at Julia's eyes, Xia Daiti reached out and touched his face, asking in confusion.
Watching Xia Daiti touching her face, that soft and charming movement.
Something is wrong. Nine out of ten things are wrong.
Mathilda also looked at Lucilia in front of her, then she turned around and looked at Julia.
Together with Urulius nearby, the three of them pulled the two upstairs.
Came directly to Xia Daiti’s room upstairs.
As soon as it was opened, a faint and very subtle dull smell emanated from it.
The windows were closed and it looked like there hadn't been ventilation for a while. It was clear that no one had lived here for some time.
This kind of situation is obviously not right in a bedroom.
In this situation, several people seemed to understand something.
Matlisa reached out and touched the cabinet next to her, looking at the light dust on her fingers.
Stretch out your hand and wave.
The vines stretched out and opened the window for ventilation, and quickly swept the dust in the room.
Several girls sat down beside the bed.
Matlisa watched as Xiadeti touched her hand and arm.
"The skin is smoother and more radiant." As he said this, he looked up at Xia Daiti's smiling face.
He stretched out his upper arms and pinched her face.
A pair of lower arms also rested on Xia Daiti's waist.
It seems like some simple checks are being done.
Xia Daiti was confused and dazed as the two men rubbed and touched her. She probably knew what the two men were checking.
Finally, Urulius even leaned over and sniffed around Xia Daiqi's neck.
"The smell is wrong too. The sweet smell is mixed with a hint of allure."
"What a charming smell! You guys are so weird." Xiadaiti pushed Urulius ' head away and said to the three people strangely.
"It's not surprising at all, Ululius and Jason did..." Before Ululius could finish her proud words, Julia immediately covered her mouth.
"I told you not to say such rude things."
Xiadaiti and Lucilia also knew why the three of them pulled them up.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
He stretched out his hands and held them together, looking at the three people in front of him and said, "It's just as you thought."
A faint blush crept up their faces.
See the two admit it.
Julia's face was calm, but a hint of red could still be seen. She looked as if she expected it.
Mathilda was a little shy, and her face turned noticeably red.
Urulius opened her mouth curiously, as if she wanted to ask something.
Then, from time to time, exclamations of surprise were heard from the girls as they talked to each other.
Julia's expression turned into surprise, and Mathilda's face turned even redder, but she couldn't help but listen carefully with her eyes wide open.
Urulius interrupted excitedly, bringing the topic to a lower level.
"Souls together..."
"Okay, that's great."
"Should I try with Jason as well?"
The topic gradually ran wildly like a wild horse, heading in a direction that could not be pulled back.
…
"Of course you did. You were very happy during the time we were away, right?"
Jason nudged Alka with his elbow, a pleased smile on his face; he was also an experienced person.
Juanlu also smiled and nodded.
"It's okay." Alka said calmly.
"Come on, look at that smile of yours." Jason said, glancing at him with disdain.
Then several people laughed.
Of course, Simon and Pororo are not included here.
The two men's thought processes and attention spans are slightly different from those of normal men.
After a while, everyone sat together in the living room again.
Alka looked at Jason and the others and asked, "How was the harvest?"
Although he asked this question, Alka, Jason and others maintained frequent communication, so he had a rough idea of the gains.
Jason nodded.
Then Urulius appeared with a bright crystal wrapped in her hands.
And within the crystal is sealed a divine essence.
In Alka's eyes, this divine essence glowed orange.
This divine essence.
It emits a brilliant light, with golden balls of light twisting and entwining inside it constantly like a spiral.
This was the only orange, scepter-level treasure they obtained this time.
It is also the last orange scepter-level treasure that they can obtain in World Scar at this stage.
The others are still showing as orange dots on the map, but either no information can be seen at all, or the information that is seen does not provide any chance at all.
"Have you tried to find out who this divine essence is suitable for?" Alka asked, taking the crystal in his hand and looking at it carefully.
Looking at this divine essence with his own eyes, it seemed to have a slightly strange function, leaving him at a loss for words.
The main thing was that he actually saw some kind of phantom on this divine essence, and only by pulling it into a dream could he understand it better.
Jason nodded: "It suits Juanlu very well. It's a perfect match."
Hearing this, Alka looked at Juanlu and nodded.
Then it can be basically confirmed that this protection is suitable for Juanlu.
It's a perfect match, there's basically no suspense.
Then Urulius took out a treasure and another crystal.
These two treasures are at the holy grail level that emits golden light.
However, one of them is a treasure that looks like a hammer. It has complicated patterns on it. It is neither eye-catching nor simple.
And wrapped in another crystal is a divine essence.
The divine essence at the Holy Grail level is very easy to identify.
The appearance of this divine essence is like crystal, sparkling with brilliant refracted light, light and clear.
It matches the crystal exterior that wraps it perfectly.
Alka looked at this divine essence.
He saw in it a quality of tenacity, stability, and brilliant colors.
Like a gem.
Looking at this divine essence, Alka frowned, and he suddenly thought of something. He couldn't help but reach out and hold this divine crystal in his hand, and looked at it carefully.
After looking for a while, ecstasy gradually appeared on his face and he turned to look at Simon.
"There is a way, there is a way!"
Seeing Alka's expression and hearing his words, and then looking at the crystal-wrapped divine essence in Alka's hand.
Simon seemed to react instantly and thought of something, and his face became ecstatic.
"Can you do it?"
The rest of the people were confused.
