Chapter 99: Unexplored Islands

Meniex - the agent of mercy, a devout believer of the Virgin Mary, who guards the sacred faith of the Virgin Mary in the world with a sharp sword in hand.

When encountering a villain, the sharp blade in your hand will pierce the enemy's chest, and the holy light will burn the villain's heart, purifying the enemy with the holy light of the Virgin Mary.

She will use the sharp sword in her hand to send the sinful souls of her enemies to the Holy Mother's Confession Church.

Sinful souls will be cleansed there and return to holiness.

When two helpless people met, she would stab the sharp blade in her hand into the helpless person's palm.

The sick will be healthy.

The miserable will be happy.

The hungry will be fed.

Mothers and children will be blessed.

…

Flipping through the Marian scriptures in front of him, Alka was reading the chapter about the Mercy of Meniekes, the Agent of Mercy.

The religious connotations are too strong, but we can also learn from this chapter some of the abilities that the Sword of Mercy may have.

After all, there is no coincidence in the world, not to mention that this sword really exists and is their target.

"It is said that those without faith who hold the Sword of Mercy will be burned by the Holy Flame. Only those who believe in the Virgin Mary and hold the Sword of Mercy will be protected and blessed."

Xiadaiti said casually while watching Alka flipping through the holy book and the deeds recorded in it.

Those without faith.

Hearing Xia Deti's words, Alka instantly thought of himself. He didn't know whether he could be considered a follower of the Virgin Mary. After all, his soul came from another world, or modern society.

His belief... let's put it this way, it all depends on whether the belief is useful or not? Whether it brings benefits or not.

If it really works, there's nothing wrong with believing in it.

If Xia Daiti and the others knew about this state of belief, he would be considered a pagan at the very least.

Thinking of this, Alka made up his mind not to touch the sword.

It would be embarrassing if you burn yourself.

The thought of being burned with the Sword of Mercy in hand while surrounded by Virgin Mary believers was outrageous.

At this time, a crisp bell rang outside, which was a reminder that they were about to arrive at the destination.

"It looks like we're almost there, let's go out." Jason put down the things in his hands, opened the wooden door first and walked out.

The rest followed closely behind.

They were fully armed, with their weapons and equipment already equipped.

When we arrived on the deck, we were faced with pitch darkness.

At this moment, the thick dark clouds in the sky just dispersed thinly, and a few rays of light fell down.

It's rare to come across such an opportunity, especially in a place like this.

With the help of this faint light, looking straight ahead, in the distance there is a huge object floating on the sea.

"This island is quite big!" Xia Daiti said with some surprise, looking at the island.

The map only marks the location of the island, and does not specifically depict the size difference between this island and other islands.

Right in front of them was the port that once existed on the island.

From the buildings in the port that have long been in ruins, one can see how prosperous this port once was.

There are still a few ships floating on it, but these ships are already in tatters and it is a miracle that they can float on the sea.

From the size of these dilapidated ships and the appearance of some of them that have survived, we can get a glimpse of their glory when they were intact a hundred years ago.

Only a ship like this, which is obviously perfectly made, could have survived until now without sinking.

You have to know that the sea water below is more corrosive than the outside world.

The fact that they can float on the sea for hundreds of years without sinking shows how sturdy they are.

The Sea Fist slowly came to a stop at an abandoned berth, and Alka used the mirror to once again create a searchlight that shone downwards.

The broken clouds had already closed, and the light disappeared into the darkness once again.

The beam of light from the searchlight made of mirrors swept around below, finding a good spot.

Andre jumped directly from the bow, followed by the others, and finally Alka, who was controlling the lights, jumped down.

Everyone took out a lighting stone, tied it in a net bag and hung it around their waist to illuminate the surrounding environment.

Andre looked around, his hands hanging naturally at his sides, but his palms had already been clenched into fists.

"No one has been to this island yet. There may be quite a few dead souls left. Please be careful."

Alka controlled the light beam and shone it into the distance.

There are almost all warehouses in the port here. These warehouses have long been broken and collapsed, and there is no intact one to be seen.

Led by Andre, the crowd slowly moved forward.

Following the light, they left the port area and came to the city area at the back. What they saw were vast stretches of ruins. There were many more buildings here than on the island where Alka and his party had landed before.

The difference between towns and cities can be used as a comparison.

It is difficult to find intact buildings here. The relatively intact ones have mostly become ruins. Various plants grow out of the ruins, wrapping around the rubble and buildings.

With their arrival and the light beam shining over, one could see with the naked eye six or seven corpses slowly crawling up from the ground.

A faint green flame burned in their skulls, which was so conspicuous in the darkness.

They walked towards them holding various weapons.

Wooden sticks, iron bars, and even bone sticks from unknown parts of the body.

He walked unsteadily, as if he would fall apart at any moment.

Andre quickened his pace, met them first, and stretched out his hand to form a palm.

He easily grasped the skull of the skeleton in front of him and just gave it a slight squeeze, without even looking at the glow of magic .

He crushed the skull along with the ghostly green flame inside it.

The part below the skull immediately fell apart, as if it had lost its connecting function, and scattered bones all over the ground.

The rest of the skeletons were not shocked or frightened by this behavior. They walked slowly towards Alka and the others without any thoughts.

Several silk threads flew out directly.

The thread passed through the black hole's eye socket and directly hit the soul fire inside.

The soul fire wavered, and then went out like the wind.

These skeletons were also scattered all over the ground.

The two of them deliberately left one for Xia Daiti, allowing her to try the strength of these skeletons so that she could have a better idea.

After all, it seems that there are quite a few skeletons that can crawl up on this island. Knowing the strength of these skeletons can better exert their strength and save energy.

As for Alka and the others, they had already met them on the previous island.

Xia Daiti kicked the skeleton's entire body into pieces with a whip kick, which was extremely violent and aesthetically pleasing.

As they continued to move forward, more and more skeletons crawled up from the ground. Both the weapons in their hands and their appearance were too unintimidating.

Not to mention those who have touched them, even an ordinary adult or even some teenagers can easily knock them down as long as they overcome their fear.

One by one, they began to smash the skeletons that surrounded them.

Like a ruthless bone-crushing machine.

In less than a moment, all the surrounding skeletons were cleared away.

I don’t know if it’s because of the light source on their bodies, but there are also skeletons walking towards us in the distance.

But not long after, with this wave of cleanup, there were no more skeletons surrounding them.

But as they moved forward, skeletons lying everywhere kept crawling up because they were startled by their actions.

"It's so annoying. It never ends." Jason slapped the skull of the skeleton in front of him and sent it flying.

Their progress was slowed down too much by these skeletons.

There must have been no one on this island before, otherwise there wouldn't be so many skeletons left on the island.

I kind of miss the last island. After being cleaned up by others, the number of skeletons is almost minimal.

Listening to Jason's complaints, Alka smashed the skull in front of him with a punch, then squatted down and pulled out the thing stuck between the bones of the skeleton's arm.

The reason why he took this thing was because he was surrounded by a white outline in Alka's eyes.

This means that he is a valuable item that can be called a treasure.

This is a ring stuck in the bone gap. Perhaps because it is stuck in the bone gap, it is well protected. It is inlaid with a circle of strange crystals.

Both the workmanship and the style are very beautiful.

You can tell at first glance that it is worth a lot of money.

"This ring is worth at least 1 gold sail." Xia Daiti said as he watched Alka's harvest.

Xia Daiti has some experience in assessing the value of these things.

"Really? Then these skulls are quite valuable."

Alka said jokingly, then kicked the skeleton that was walking by to the ground, then raised his leg and stomped on his skull to crush it.

With the death of this skeleton, there was finally some peace and quiet for a while.

Andre looked at the large area of city ruins and wanted to search for the target. It would be a waste of time and manpower if they acted together.

After thinking for a while, he said, "We will form groups of two and look for the church separately. If we encounter any danger, we will signal."

Several people nodded, divided into three groups, and explored in different directions.

Alka and Shadaiti walked to the right together.

On the map, this direction is where the target is, but he is in the middle and back of the island, and they may just be at the edge of the city.

There are two blue dots in this direction, so Alka explored this place.

If the blue dots weren't hidden, he wouldn't mind finding them along the way.

After walking a few steps, Alka looked at the building in front of him and said, "This building looks very solid, and it covers a large area. There must be a lot of valuable things inside."

Xia Daiti looked up and said, "Write it down first. It won't be too late to collect it after we complete our goal."

Alka nodded and did not refute. There was indeed a white spot in this place, but its specific value was unknown.

There is really no need to rush.

They continued to move forward.

And Alka was looking at the map, they were getting closer and closer to a blue dot.

Then Alka saw a flickering blue outline in a half-collapsed building not far away.

It appeared right in front of him, with no intention of disguising or hiding anything.

Sure enough, in this suddenly destroyed city, wealth can be said to be everywhere.

It can't even be called treasure hunting, it can be described as plundering.

Alka walked towards the ruins.

The concentrated searchlight beam swept around the outline.

The outlined object is an oil lamp, hanging on the wall of the collapsed room.
