Treasure hunter, sailing on the blue sea

"The ruins of this temple... are still 20 meters deep."

Xia Daiti's voice was full of confusion.

She has completely scanned this ruins, and it should be a temple building covering a large area.

And the building basically collapsed completely, but the way it collapsed was a bit strange.

As if someone had struck it in the middle, it was broken into three sections and fell into a pile.

In other words, the pile of ruins stacked together is about 20 meters high, and the top spire is relatively well preserved and upright.

The height of the entire ruins may be about 35 to 40 meters.

Excluding the well-preserved spire, more than 20 meters is high enough. This is still the height of the ruins. If it were a solid building, the height of the temple would be at least more than 100 meters.

Calculate based on this height.

Among the buildings they had built, the only one that could match this height was the statue of the Virgin in the center of the cathedral.

The statue is much taller than this.

But one is a statue and the other is a temple building. The two are obviously different.

Not to mention that these ruins were from who knows how many years ago.

"Is it 20 meters high?" Alka thought for a moment and asked, "The ruins after the collapse?"

"right."

Calculating it this way, the height of this building is indeed outrageous.

And judging from the information about the treasure, this building certainly cannot be the tallest in the entire city-state.

Because the ruins of this temple are obviously just like a research institute used for research, or one of many temple ruins used for research.

The height of the building can also reflect the level of development of this civilization.

Especially in this world full of islands.

etc.

Alka suddenly thought of something, and found that he had entered a dead end.

Who said these ruins must be the civilization after the War of Gods?

After figuring this out, many things suddenly became clear.

"It's okay, don't worry about it, let's see what Lucilia can analyze."

"You can scan more and maybe dig deeper later."

Xia Daiti nodded and concentrated on his work.

Although there are many exposed ruins, there are obviously not many that are clear and useful.

After Lucilia looked at them all carefully, she said: "Sapphire Temple, this ruins used to be called, but there is a number 3 and 2 on the back, I don't know what it means.

There is also a person named Vita, who is called the Great Master.

Not much to gain, dig a little more and let me see if there is any more information. "

After hearing Lucilia's words, Xia Detti was already marking more marks and outlines for digging downwards.

This time, we must be more careful to avoid causing more damage to this ancient ruins.

The excavation speed was still fast. Everyone was somewhat experienced and did not cause any damage.

Although the building collapsed, it did not completely turn into pieces piled together.

Because it collapsed and stacked in three sections, the main body of each of the three sections was relatively well preserved.

After completely excavating the top section, they entered through a broken hole.

But obviously, even if it wasn't crushed by the collapsing ruins, it was still empty inside.

Countless things have long been reduced to nothing by the passage of time.

Only some patterns and words on the surrounding walls still record information. Although they are still blurry, they are much better than those outside.

Alka and the others did not enter, but the smaller doll girl entered to avoid more damage.

"This place seemed to be a place used to conduct some kind of research. The research was about gathering magic power. The person named Vita seems to be the person in charge of this project."

This time Lucilia obviously gained more information.

After hearing this information, Alka felt that the information they knew was almost enough, so he took out the map and looked at it.

[Treasure information: Project Vastava 3-6, research is conducted using the Sapphire Temple of Grand Master Vita as the research institute.

The research topic is how to gather magic power stably and efficiently, and filter the magic power into high magic factors that are more suitable for absorption.

Use the secret word to enter the superimposed space of the temple, where the completed first version of the product is stored. 】

Sure enough, with the information from Lucilia's two harvests, the information about the treasure was basically completed.

I know what the treasure is, its origin and where it is stored.

Then there is the most important way to obtain the treasure, which is also the most difficult to complete among the expanded information.

But in some cases, it's also the least important one, since the map's markers can skip this process.

Among the treasures that Alka and the others harvested, most of them did not know the complete process of obtaining them.

Because most treasures are easy to obtain once you know where they are hidden.

As for the specific information about the treasure, it actually doesn't matter in some cases.

Unless the treasure itself is deliberately hidden, in this case, even if you know the exact location, it will be difficult to get inside.

For example, the most classic Twelve Treasure Houses.

But in fact, under normal circumstances, most of the treasures are relics left by the original owners due to accidents.

"Overlapping space..."

As he muttered softly, Alka couldn't help but think of the temple ruins that were inexplicably activated when they came to this island.

At that time, they were also suddenly transported to other places, and they also read the secret words.

But the hole should be underground, not the so-called superimposed space.

Now this treasure is clearly stated, and if you want to obtain it, you must speak the secret word.

Apparently it's the key to activating the ruins.

So the question is, what would the secret word be?

Shouldn't it be enough to just name it like the previous temple?

Looking at Xia Detti and others who were still preparing to continue digging, Alka immediately said: "Wait a minute."

Hearing this, everyone turned to look at him.

Alka looked at Lucilia, thought for a while and said: "Lucilia, wait a moment and translate the words I said into the language of this island."

After hearing this, everyone understood what Alka wanted to do.

"You want to activate this ruins? Is that okay?" Xia Detti asked from the side.

Alka nodded: "Don't worry."

After hearing Alka say this, they didn't say anything.

Lucilia patted the dirt on her body and jumped on Alka's shoulder: "Just tell me."

"Vastva"

As Alka finished speaking, Lucilia quickly translated.

But it obviously has no effect.

"The God of Four."

Useless.

"Vita."

Useless.

"Sapphire Temple."

Still no use.

…

The two of them just translated each sentence one by one, and all kinds of words came out, and they even started to combine with each other.

However, Alka's mouth began to go dry, and there was still no movement in the ruins.

Frowning, he looked at the ruins in front of him and started thinking.

"How about we continue digging." Xia Detti comforted him.

But what Alka is worried about is that even if he digs deeper and gets more information, he may not be able to know what the secret language is.

Obviously, the information obtained only from the ruins is not enough to complete the information about the treasure, especially this last section.

You must have a deep enough understanding of the treasure to have such an expansion.

If it is just a study of ruins, Alka is not optimistic about it.

Think about it.

Alka spoke again.

"The place of Grand Master Vita."

Lucilia still translated the word.

"It's working!" Julia, who had been waiting next to her, said immediately.

The magic around them is rising.

This time, no ripples spread out, but Alka and the others standing on the ruins disappeared in an instant.

After a moment of trance and a sense of weightlessness, everyone fell to the ground.

The surrounding environment also changed following the moment of darkness.

A faint light adheres to the surrounding walls, illuminating the entire space, allowing everyone to clearly see the surrounding environment.

Alka turned around and looked at her surroundings.

This is a rectangular space that looks quite small.

There are very regular lines carved on the wall, and this light also emanates from the lines.

On both sides of the wall, there are various equipment and tables, and there are some unknown equipment on the table.

Various papers are also pasted on the wall. The surroundings appear a bit messy, but they are exceptionally well-preserved.

At a glance, Alka saw an object with a blue outline at the front of the entire space. On the table against the wall, there was an object with a blue outline placed among the messy objects.

The thing was placed on the table casually, looking no different from the surrounding utensils.

Pororo stretched out his hand and touched the paper on the wall.

With his touch, the paper immediately turned into ashes and disappeared into the air.

Seeing this situation, Pororo's hands immediately froze in the air.

"It's been too long here. Even if there is no dust, the passage of time is still causing changes." Julia said while looking at the surrounding environment.

As they entered, the air that also entered inside, and the faint movement caused by their breathing, were already causing some of the paper defects on the table and wall to dissipate.

"Don't move, let me record it, as much as I can remember." Lucilia said, and began to escape into the shadows.

She hopes this will not affect the surrounding environment.

Everyone stood there, almost holding their breath.

Lucilia just gently emerged from the shadows, and saw the papers on the wall that were not completely damaged starting to record.

There are quite a few on the table. The only pity is that most of the papers on the table are stacked.

Under such circumstances, I dare not touch them at all, and can only look at those on the surface.

These papers began to slowly dissipate, and the collapse airflow was generated.

Lucilia could only try her best to remember it in her mind.

Until the surrounding papers that had been used to record information were completely turned into ashes and could no longer be seen.

"I don't know how much time has passed here before it has such an effect. All this air came in after we just entered this space."

Julia said next to her, feeling the space that had been cut out.

People began to move around in this space.

Alka looked at the unknown utensil on the table next to him. When he touched it with his hand, it immediately broke into pieces and fell on the table.

And the table began to break and collapse with this movement.

Seeing this situation, everyone couldn't help but freeze in place.

Alka waved his hand: "It's okay. If these instruments are broken, they will be broken. They are already so fragile. Even if they are left like this, they will be of no use."

If it breaks into pieces with just a slight touch, what can you gain from just looking at the appearance? It's not paper used to record any information.

After hearing Alka's words, everyone began to remain curious and observed the surroundings.

Various objects began to appear damaged as they touched them.

Almost all the objects here become extremely fragile with the passage of time.

Alka walked directly towards the innermost part and looked at the object with a blue outline.

He was afraid that his touch would break the blue object into pieces.

After all, these things around him have all disappeared with the passage of time.

If this blue item is the same, it would be a bit embarrassing.

After all, it was something they worked hard to obtain.

After walking over, he stretched out a finger and touched it gently. The object shook twice as he touched it, but he could feel its hardness.

This thing did not become fragile with the passage of time like the objects around it.

Alka picked it up immediately.

This is an object that looks like a rhombus crystal. The edge of the crystal is edged with bronze metal.

Apart from this, the entire object behaved extremely plainly. Even the inside of the crystal object did not flicker, and even looked a little dull.

"Your thing isn't broken? What is it?" Jason, who touched all the way and broke almost all the objects he could touch, looked at the rhombus crystal in Alka's hand and asked curiously.

All the objects around here, including the table, were broken when touched. On the contrary, there was nothing wrong with the things in Alka's hands.

"This is the goal of our trip, a magic item."

Hearing this, everyone gathered around and looked curiously at the crystal in Alka's hand.

Wherever they passed, the table objects all turned into fragments, and dust composed of some fragments began to fill the space.

"These things... were corroded by magic power. How long did it take for this to happen!" Simon seemed to have discovered the reason why these objects were so fragile and couldn't help but sigh.

It is completely unimaginable that an object would be corroded by magic power. It would take a period of time that is too long to even imagine.

He shook his head, looked at everyone's expressions, and then looked at the only existing object in Alka's hand.

After such a long time, this object is still well preserved.

It must be a very sophisticated magic item, and it may even be able to absorb the surrounding magic independently. Otherwise, it would be impossible to store it for such a long time without being damaged.

Ordinary items and magic items placed in a magical environment will of course behave differently over time.

This completely piqued his curiosity.

"So what is this?" Lucilia asked from the side.

Hearing this, Alka looked at her strangely and shook his head: "Shouldn't I ask you?"

After all, only Lucilia has seen the information recorded on those drawings, and only she can understand it.

What exactly this thing is should be recorded in those documents.

"Oh, right." When Lucilia heard this, she patted her head in a daze. The words on the paper just now were forcibly imprinted in her mind.

Start to recall the words you just saw and interpret them.

Looking at Lucilia's appearance, Xia Daiti smiled and couldn't help complaining: "It seems like your memory and memories don't match."

"Hmph, this is my most proud stunt. I can remember it just by looking at it."

Lucilia said with a smile, and then replied: "This object should be the finished product in these materials. Judging from those materials, it seems to be the first item to be successfully created. It is called the magic gathering stone, also known as the magic stone. aggregator.

Looking at the records above, it seems to be related to the concentration of magic power. The specific function is not in the information I have seen. "

After all, she had only seen a very small part of it, and the other stacked information had long been scattered by the wind.

Alka looked at the crystal in his hand, thought for a moment and asked, "Then I want to... give it a try?"

"I suggest that we use it after we go out. There is not much magic power in this space. If it is absorbed, it is likely to cause instability in the entire space." Julia suggested from the side.

Hearing this, everyone nodded immediately.

It's better to listen to Julia about this kind of thing.

"Lucilia."

Hearing Alka's call, Lucilia nodded and was about to open her mouth to read it in reverse.

She suddenly saw something in front of her and jumped over.

"Wait a minute, there is something like a booklet there, and it has not disappeared."

He asked her to hold it and hold it in his arms.

Then they chanted the incantation they just entered in reverse.

After the unknown language was spoken in reverse, everyone immediately disappeared.

Some magic power was consumed, some magic power was taken out, and the magic power in the space was reduced a lot.

Only the space that is about to be destroyed by the magic power is left, as well as the dust inside it and the debris on the ground.

It's the same sense of trance again, plus the feeling of weightlessness.

As their eyes went dark, they returned to the top of the ruins again.

It was exactly the same place they entered.

But obviously the breathing and the flow of magic power outside are much better than in that space.

"Crack!"

Hearing this sound, Julia immediately yelled: "Go back quickly, the space we came out of just now is shattered!"

Hearing this, everyone who had just come out immediately rolled over on her back without doubting her.

And the clicking sound sounded, followed by something like a crack appearing in the air.

Everyone immediately stayed away.
