Treasure Hunters, Sail the Blue Sea

Chapter 439 Scars of the World
This is a magnificent warship forged from closely spaced steel plates.

On the deck, you can see rough turrets arranged on it.

The gear representing the Church of the Holy Machine, and the eye pupil in the center of the gear are printed on the side of the ship.

Soldiers wearing light chain armor can also be seen on the deck patrolling above, and they are using powerful-looking stone-shocking guns in their hands.

The three steel warships from the Church of the Holy Machine slowed down and circled around the place where the two demonic warships sank.One of them, which seemed to be the leading warship, slowly docked next to Alka and the others, about 10 meters away.

An ordinary-looking man with dark skin looked at the flags on Alka's sails.

That was the symbol representing Alka and their team.

With the ocean island as the background color, a compass with precise scale and the pupils horizontally in the compass emerge.

"Are you the Eyes of the Compass?" He looked at Alka and the others beside the boat and asked in confusion.

Although he wasn't sure if the flag with this pattern was what he thought it was.

Hearing this, Alka and the others were a little surprised, although they were somewhat well-known in Twin Islands.But they knew in their hearts that they were only in that area.

Although puzzled, Alka nodded: "That's right."

Hearing this, the captain-like character nodded and looked at Simon next to him.

Nodding to him, it was a polite greeting, because they should be regarded as members of a church.

"Then you are going to the world scar, right? We have received similar news."

It seems that it should be the news from the archbishop who came here first, Alka nodded.

Then a metal ear decoration appeared in the hand.

See this metal wheat ear decoration and the breath emanating from it, plus Simon next to Alka.The captain seemed to have identified Alka and the others.

"Okay, we'll leave a boat to guide you."

After speaking, without waiting for Alka and the others to answer, the boat sailed to the place where the companions stayed behind.After the three ships converged, one of the ships stayed where it was, and the other two drove away towards the distance.

The ironclad ship that was parked in place drove over.

The captain of this ship is a square-faced man with a crew cut.

"Now we will lead you to the scars of the world. Please follow us and don't fall behind."

Communicate with each other, and the iron-clad ship starts moving forward, driving the Voice of Dawn to them behind.

Following the iron-clad ship, it didn't take long before I saw the current in front of me, and it seemed that there was a different change.

As soon as the armored ship passed by, its speed immediately increased.Alka and the others followed closely behind, and the speed of the Voice of Dawn was pushed by the current, so they immediately accelerated to follow.

Following the current, the speed of the two ships gradually increased, faster and faster.You can see as you drive, and not far from the current, you can also see other ships driving.

Even A-Ka could see a demon warship similar to what he had seen before, being chased and beaten by three ships that seemed to be composed of vines and branches.

Soon this demon warship sank to the bottom of the sea just like the two Aka and the others encountered before.

All kinds of patrolling ships and the ongoing naval battles all demonstrated to them that wars are going on in this place anytime and anywhere.

"Is this some kind of fast current?" Jason asked while standing on the deck, feeling the fast speed.

He doesn't know much about it.

"This kind of sea current should not exist in this kind of place, it should be man-made." Lucilia said after observing the surrounding sea conditions.

Materisa next to her nodded her head: "I can feel that the ocean current has the breath of the Sea God, and I even noticed a disciple of the Sea God just under the ocean current.

It should be run and maintained by the Sea God Church. "

In this way, everyone will understand.

The speed of this current channel is extremely fast, and it would have taken two or three days to reach the journey.It only took them about half a day to see the island that almost completely covered the field of vision from a distance.

Perhaps for such an area of ​​land, it can no longer be called an island.

Following the current, Alka and the others soon discovered a port city on the shore.

The surrounding ships are densely packed, rushing towards that area.

When they arrived here, the warship leading them broke away from the current and left without any communication with Alka and the others.

Arriving here, Alka and the others probably understood, and directly drove the boat towards the port.

As they got closer, they could see that the city was built against a mountain.

This is a peak on the shore, and the city spreads from the mountainside to the seaside in layers.

You can see that on both sides of the city, there are towering city walls and some protrusions of the mountain peaks, which combine with each other to form two curved protective surfaces.Surrounded the whole city in the center.

Alka and the others could see at least six or seven airships flying in the sky.

"What is that?" Jason asked in surprise.

Simon looked at it with bright eyes, a building similar to a lighthouse on the shore.But an extremely thick and long barrel protruded from the top of the building, like a giant cannon.

And as the lighthouse got closer, they gradually realized how exaggerated and huge the lighthouse was.

It can no longer be described as a lighthouse, this is a circular towering fortress.

In addition to the thick and long gun barrel they saw in the distance, there are densely packed shooting holes and protruding gun barrels around the circular stone wall.

It no longer looks like a fantasy style here, but more like a steel war style.

As Alka's ship gradually approached the port, they clearly felt that something was targeting them.

Not sure if it was because they were unfamiliar ships or a warning.

Following the mess of ships, Arka and the others parked the sailboat at one of the berths in the port.

With the stop, something has scanned their ship, and no port personnel came to collect the fee, so they just docked at will.

"Do you want to go down and have a look?" Alka turned to look at the crowd and asked.

Everyone nodded at this, and everyone was a little curious about this place.

"Then let's scatter around the city and learn about the situation here."

After speaking, Alka jumped off the boat directly.

Everyone jumped down one by one.

Shadetti and Lucilia followed Arka towards the port.

The port seemed a bit noisy with people coming and going.But among the people coming and going, whether they were civilians or workers, there was an aura of toughness.

They all seem to be able to play.

Alka looked at the humans here, and they all had some degree of mutation.

Some had orange-red eyes, some had slightly tapered ears, and tiny bony spurs had grown in some areas of their bodies.

You can also see demi-humans of different races that you have never seen anywhere before.

"You don't have eyes, do you?"

There seemed to be a collision not far away, and a box of goods fell to the ground.

Looking at the goods that fell to the ground, they were all various materials picked off from the devil, but these seemed to be mostly the head, horns and tail of the little devil.

With the noise.

A group of soldiers came through the crowd.

"What's the noise? What happened?"

Alka and the others saw that this group of soldiers was wearing heavy armor, which was pure black.But it doesn't look like metal, but looks like some kind of pure black hard stone.

In his hand was a spear with an exaggerated tip like a sword blade.

Alka blinked his eyes. There are 5 soldiers in this group, and they are all in various stages of the third stage.

Some kind of mark can also be seen on the armor.

An ax fell on the stick figure of the devil.

After watching for a while, the three of them walked towards the city.

"Have you noticed? The goods shipped out seem to be devil materials, while the goods shipped in are all various supplies."

Xia Daiti has been observing the goods here and said.

Alka nodded, and he also saw the symbols of the Church of the Four Gods on many goods.

The largest building seen across the port is a tavern-like building.

You can see some small groups wearing simple weapons, holding various weapons in their hands, and with some blood scars on their bodies walking back and forth on the streets.

Some people even had trophies-like materials hanging on their bodies, materials from various demons.

Looking carefully, Alka found that it was not just demons, but also some creatures that he had never seen before. The materials were not known from which creatures.

The buildings here are all low and made of heavy stones.

All kinds of gray-white-brown hard stones were used, and Alka hadn't seen a building with a height of more than three floors.

It looks very solid and thick.

Various languages ​​can be heard in the noisy sounds coming from the ears, but the most common language is the language of the Four Gods Sea.

Alka blinked slightly.

Look at these people walking up and down the street.

Among the crowd of people coming and going like this, Alka saw four existences with the aura of treasures.

Even ordinary residents, women wearing linen clothes, are at the second stage of strength.

"The Church of Our Lady?" When Alka and the others passed by the street, they saw a building similar to the Church of Our Lady.The reason why it is said to be similar is because this building looks a bit like a war fortress.

They did see the statue of the Virgin and the Holy Symbol at the door.

Looking inside, both priests and guards are wearing armor.

At the door is a man wearing heavy armor, holding a book wrapped in a steel case, and seems to be using some kind of healing spell.

In front of him was a row of wounded. He could see mercenaries, civilians, and soldiers in black stone armor that he had just seen at the port.

The armor on this priest's body is not good looking either, and some tiny scratches and slight dents can be seen on it.

There was also a flail hanging from his waist, and the hammer head of the flail was covered with dried blood.

Moreover, this priest is wearing a priest's robe under his armor, and his body does not look strong, which is the standard of an ordinary adult.

A guard of the Notre Dame Church standing nearby saw Alka and they walked over.

After walking over, he directly crossed his hands and saluted.

Alka and the others also saluted back.

Apparently, the guard saw the aura of the Virgin on them.

"Saints, are you here for the first time?"

It seems that for members of the Holy Mother Church, identifying the saints is all too easy.

Looking at the man in front of him wearing a helmet and visor, only his eyes and lips could be seen slightly, Arka nodded.

"That's right, we've only just come here, and we don't know much about it yet."

At this time, it seemed that the priest behind had finished his treatment and walked towards them.

After walking over, he patted the soldier's shoulder, and then stood in front of Alka and the others.

"I'm Purvis, a marching chaplain at the Church of Our Lady."

"Alka, the captain of the Pupil of the Compass." Alka looked at him, shook hands with him and said.

The priest in front of him is around the middle level of the fourth stage, and has no treasures, but the book seems to be a holy weapon.

For the believers of Our Lady, it can be regarded as a treasure.

"Alka? The Pupil of the Compass... I seem to have heard this name somewhere." After hearing Alka's introduction, the priest in front of him couldn't help thinking.

Then he seemed to remember: "I remember, I received news a few months ago that a saint and his team will come here. It's you."

"If there is no one else named Alka, it should be me." Alka said with a smile.

"Funny, please come with me."

As Purvis said, he led Aka and the others into the interior of the church like a fortress, and there was still the oncoming prayer hall.

But now there seemed to be no one in some narrow prayer halls, so Purvis took Alka and the others to find a random place to sit down.

"This is Jushan Seaport, which can be regarded as the passageway between the scars of the world and the outside world. It is considered safe here."

As he spoke, a map appeared in his hand.

"I don't have many maps here to give you as gifts, but you can take a look at this one." He said and handed it over.

Arka took the map he handed over.

This map is fairly straightforward.

The shape of the scar in the entire world is similar to a very irregular rhombus.There is a long gap in the center of the rhombus, leading all the way to the overseas.

Alka looked at the divisions on the map.

Where the devil is located is the gap in the center of the rhombus and the direction in which the gap extends.

And the three sides are occupied by the order side, and the gap in the sea is the only area where the devil connects to the outside world.

There is also a seaway outside, which should be the current that they just passed through, which can sail quickly.

These currents spread around the sea surface like blood vessels, but it can be seen that the channel almost circles around the devil's sea outlet.

Obviously, it is to prevent the devil's ship from carrying the devil out of this area, coupled with the extreme weather Alka and the others encountered outside, it can be determined that these extreme weather is also a part of restricting the devil from going out.

Looking at the map, Alka couldn't help but blinked.

I don't know if this map counts as a world map or a regional map?

Thinking of this, Alka blinked and looked at the map.

Not a world map, but a regional map.

Points of light one after another appeared in front of Alka.

It is densely packed, almost completely covering the entire continent. The main reason is that this continent is already huge in size, and the scale of the map in Alka's hand is too small.

So it looks like there are treasures on the entire map.

The golden light spread all over reached hundreds.

Alka even saw more than a dozen orange beams of light.

On top of this, Alka discovered six more red light pillars.

Four of them are in the devil's realm.

As we know before, after the destruction of the empire that was once considered the top empire in the entire world, it left behind a large amount of heritage in the entire region.

It hasn't been scrapped clean for so many years, it's all because this place is really too dangerous.

"This map is not the latest version, it was 10 years ago, and some areas have also changed now, but the terrain has not changed much and we will just wait and see."

Purvis explained a few sentences next to it.

Overall, the area occupied by the forces and demons of the entire continent probably accounts for about one-third of the area.

However, the alliance of the Four Gods Church does not seem to occupy the other 2/3, and some areas are occupied by other unknown forces.

Alka looked at the demon's circle of protection, and the names of various fortresses were densely packed around it.

The human side almost built a fortress wall there, firmly blocking the demons in the gap, preventing them from rushing out to endanger the entire world.

After getting to know the area, Alka put the map away and handed it to Purvis.

"grateful."
