Treasure hunter, sailing on the blue sea

Early the next morning.

Alka appeared behind the cathedral.

There is a church-style house here, standing on the edge.

And it has a hidden opening to the outside world, mainly to receive people from the outside.

Not a place for insider use.

You can see a lot of people with a somewhat fierce temperament, but they are obviously not members of the church coming and going here.

Alka sat at a nearby table and observed, trying to look as non-offensively as possible.

This is a bounty point.

There is a simple counter with a wooden notice board next to it, with various reward lists posted on it.

There are some mission introductions on the bounty list.

Alka had already seen this place when he was wandering around yesterday. He was very interested in it, so he came here early in the morning.

He felt that he could learn some interesting things here.

People who come here are taciturn and there is almost no communication.

He walked in, said a few words, finished his work and left.

Most of them just glanced at some reward lists on the notice board, silently tore them down, recorded them, and then left.

Alka was next to the notice board, looking at some lists on it.

【Evil Sea Beast】

In the twin island chain waters, there is a sea monster in the waters between Nachvo Island and Cobos Island, which often attacks passing ships.

It has caused the sinking of 4 ships and damage to 13 ships.

There may have been more sinkings and deaths caused by the loss of all ship crews.

It is predicted that the strength of this sea beast is between 54 and 80 spirals, and those with strength reaching stage four or above are in demand.

Reward: 5000 gold sails/ship customization/50 enlightenment quotas.

Choose one of the three rewards and face a sea beast with strength in the fourth stage.

Is it a little too low?

But it seems that the rewards for the same level are similar, and the church is a relatively official and authoritative organization.

It seems that the so-called fourth stage is not as powerful as I thought, in the boundless sea.

It seems that he was misled by Southern Cross Island and the broken island chain around it.

【Rock Order】

The defected cult group from the Holy Mechanism Church has appeared in Zehai recently, so please be careful if you encounter them.

A dozen ships are known to have been sunk by it, with many more.

The strength of the members of the cult is mostly at stage 2~3, and the strength of the leader of the cult does not exceed stage four.

Clean out its main structure and at least ensure the death of the leader.

Reward: [Holy Grail] level treasure purchase qualification/7000 gold sail + baptism.

If you clear out this sect, you will be eligible to purchase treasures. In other words, in the boundless sea, there are enough Holy Grail level treasures to be traded.

Being qualified to buy means that there is definitely a market price.

I just don’t know what the specific price is.

There are also various bounties posted on the entire notice board, most of which seem to be bounties around the twin island chains.

80% of the bounties are to kill and clear out various harmful things.

Cultists, cult groups, sea monsters, evil spirit ships and so on.

Judging from the bounty items, almost all of them have caused a lot of damage.

The damage caused was so great that it was noticed and a reward was put on it.

Alka took a quick look.

As long as the strength of the bounty is around the fourth stage, most of the bounty prices are around 4000~8000.

For those that are slightly more difficult, there will be some additional rewards.

Generally, there are equivalent initiation quotas to choose from.

Calculating according to the reward price above, one initiation quota is approximately equal to about 100 golden sails.

This is just a rough estimate, which Alka guessed based on the rewards from these bounty orders.

And once the required strength reaches the fifth stage.

Then all kinds of rewards came, including but not limited to [Holy Grail] level treasures, about 20,000 gold sails, and all kinds of weird rewards that were hard to understand.

It shows that stage 5 may be the boundless sea and the real powerhouse.

There is a watershed with the fourth stage.

Because the reward difference between the two is a bit too big.

However, there are very few such tasks, and looking at the bounty paper, you can find that the time these bounties have been hanging here is at least measured in years.

Obviously, few people complete this kind of reward.

In other words, judging from this reward.

The market price of a [Holy Grail] level treasure starts at around 20,000 gold sails.

So expensive.

The total wealth that Alka and the others have acquired so far, excluding treasures, is probably about 10,000 gold sails.

But it’s right to think about it.

If an enlightenment quota is really 100 gold sails.

Most Holy Grail level treasures have a quota of around 100, and this quota alone is enough to sell for 10,000.

Thinking about it this way, it seems to be cheap.

However, the Holy Grail level also has strengths and weaknesses.

Thinking about it, it seems acceptable.

Thinking about it this way, if Alka sells the enlightenment quota for his two treasures, he will not be able to earn more than 20,000 to 30,000 gold sails.

But it’s just a thought.

Alka did not come here to accept these bounties, but just wanted to learn about the surrounding situation through these bounty lists.

Know where the danger is.

However, it can also be seen from these bounties that most of the bounties hanging above require strength that is actually at the fourth stage.

Moreover, there are very few people coming and going to grab the reward on this notice board.

It seems different from what I thought.

The fourth stage is still one level higher than the mainstream.

It’s right when you think about it.

The third stage is already the bottleneck without treasures. If you want to reach the fourth stage, you have to use treasures.

Although the situation shown in the boundless sea means that there are many owners of the treasure.

But obviously not enough to make it mainstream.

These people mainly draw from a notice board on the other side.

It can even be said that it is not a notice board, but an entire wall.

There are various bounty lists hanging on it, and the requirements for strength are all three stages.

However, the bounty rewards here are not as exaggerated as the notice board.

Some of the targets targeted also seem a bit normal.

Most of them are bounty missions for killers, villains, heretics, etc.

The rewards are almost always a few enlightenment places, or golden sails.

Most monetary rewards range from 800 to 2,000 gold sails.

It is generally decided based on the number of enemies and the difficulty of the bounty.

Alka has been sitting here for so long. Almost all the people who came in to pick up the bounty came to pick up the bounty from that wall, while few people touched the notice board next to it.

After a brief understanding, Alka left this place.

He needs to go to the library of the cathedral to learn something about the Infinite Sea.

Most of the information will be summarized there.

Xia Detti has been soaking there since early morning, and Lucilia, who came earlier, is also there.

Facing Lucilia, the people in the church were not embarrassed.

Only some areas and books are off limits to her.

As for Jason, I don’t know where he went.

Alka walked around the church for a long time before finally finding the location of the library in this maze-like place.

When I passed the counter, I noticed that there seemed to be a place to store newspapers.

There is actually a newspaper.

Alka picked it up curiously and looked at it casually.

Almost all the information is about the twin islands and the surrounding island chain. As well as some simple information from the outside that is not fidelity enough.

It is also issued by the Holy Mechanic Church.

"If you want to know more and further information, I suggest you buy Feiyu Newspaper."

The girl with glasses sitting at the counter wearing a body-shaping priest's uniform looked at Alka's expression and said this.

"Flying Fish News?"

Hearing Alka's voice with some confusion, the girl looked at Alka even more strangely.

Then he explained: "There is a blue two-story building outside. The logo is a fish with wings."

Alka nodded: "Thank you."

After a while, Alka found the seats where Shadetti and Lucilia were sitting and walked over.

…

Jason was sitting in a small restaurant on the corner of the street, slowly eating the sausage on the plate.

But his eyes and attention were obviously not on his plate, but on a tavern not far away.

Observing the people coming and going in the tavern.

At this time, just after dawn, some drunk people could be seen staggering out of the tavern.

Calculated according to business hours.

These people probably went to the pub in the middle of the night.

Counting that time was almost up, Jason ate the sausage in one bite and left the money on the table.

There was a little water stain on the hands, making them wet, making the hair slightly messy, and making the clothes wrinkled and sloppy.

Went into the tavern.

There was a pungent smell of alcohol as soon as you entered.

At this time, there was not much noise in the tavern. There were only some drunkards chatting, talking vaguely.

Jason ordered some appetizers and a bottle of wine and sat in a relatively clean place in the corner.

He lay in the corner and drank by himself.

But his ears were very sensitive, and he picked up all the words in the tavern.

"Damn... damn infidel." This was a slightly fat middle-aged man who was drunk alone, muttering vaguely to himself.

"It's already daylight outside. Holy Mother, I hope I can be safe when I go back."

A drunken alcoholic, but seems to be in good spirits.

"Haha, old Kurt, the Holy Mother will not bless you like this, you damn infidel, hahahaha."

All kinds of information came from the mouths of these drunkards.

Jason just drank by himself.

A tavern server was already cleaning up the surrounding environment and trash.

After cleaning most of it for a while, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and came to Jason's seat and sat directly next to it.

"If you don't mind, how about buying me a drink? I've been staying in this pub for several years, so I'm pretty well-informed."

Jason glanced up at him.

Two silver snakes appeared in his backhand, he put them under the wine glass, poured wine into the wine glass and pushed it over.

Then he pointed to the man who was drinking alone and cursing the heretics.

"what happened to him?"

"Talk about him, he was a relatively well-known businessman around here, and he made quite generous purchases.

But I heard that he passed through Zehai on his last trip. The caravan of three ships was attacked by the pagans, and finally only he and a few people returned in a rescue boat.

It can be said that he started from scratch, and almost all his life savings were lost, mainly because the boat was lost. "

Hearing this, Jason nodded.

Being without a ship in the boundless sea is fatal.

Then he raised his glass and touched it gently with the bartender.

He started asking various questions like a casual chat.

"What does Nafas treasure mean?"

"Can you hear it from so far away? That's amazing." The bartender said with some surprise.

But he still replied: "This island is quite famous for its treasures, but I have heard this legend when I was a child. I think it is false."

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

Looking at Jason's curious eyes, the bartender said: "Just to lie to you outsiders, Nafasi was originally a relatively powerful family on the island.

I heard that the family was wiped out due to some kind of struggle, but the victorious side didn't get anything valuable.

In the end, because too much was consumed in the struggle and not many benefits were obtained, it quickly declined and disappeared. "

At this point, the bartender shrugged: "So it was spread that this family had collected all the valuable things in their family and waited for their descendants to make a comeback."

"But this family has been extinct for 50 years, and the legend of this treasure has been passed down for 50 years. The people on the island have long been used to it."

"The most common things on the sea are these strange treasure legends. Not to mention ours, the Zuozi Island next door also has these things.

I haven't heard of anyone actually getting the treasure, and not everyone is part of the Golden Pointer Treasure Hunting Group. "

The bartender complained next to him like he was complaining.

"If you are really interested in this treasure, just ask me if you want to know anything. I will charge you a cheap price." He winked at Jason and joked.

"After all, many people are attracted to this treasure. Almost every few years, someone asks questions about these treasures on the island. These were my favorite people when I was a child."

Okay, let’s treat this treasure legend as a revenue project.

Jason thought funny.

"The Golden Pointer Treasure Hunting Group you are talking about is..." Jason asked curiously.

This is the first time he has heard about the existence of other treasure hunting groups in the Infinite Sea.

Homesea has been around for a long time, and it's such a big place, so the treasure hunting group knows each other fairly well.

In this boundless sea, although they have been here not long ago, to be honest, they have not been to many places.

The only one that can be called specific is Southern Cross Island.

And looking at the size of Twin Islands, we know that the place should be considered remote and a relatively isolated place.

"Don't you know? Then I'm going to have a good chat with you." At this point, the bartender's eyes clearly lit up.

"The Golden Pointer Treasure Hunting Group can be said to be one of the most famous treasure hunting groups in the Boundless Sea. I knew one of their members when I was young."

"Their leader is said to be from the Rock Lighthouse, and they have found many great treasures, many of which are legendary.

For example, the ruins of Lata Secret City, Kingdom of Heaven, and the Secret Treasure of Burning Heart..."

These things are very familiar to the bartender in front of him, and it can be seen that he is a true fan.

"And you know, they have saved many islands, driven away invading evil spirits, and even helped a god."

"Help a god?" These words surprised Jason.

If it can help the gods, it must be...

"Um...I'm not talking about the four gods, but the smaller gods."

He stretched out his index finger and thumb and made a small gesture.

He saw that Jason had obviously misunderstood, and said with some embarrassment.

"A smaller god?" Jason was a little confused.

There are only four gods. How can there be other gods?

Evil God? Or have some of the gods who once left returned?

He was a little puzzled.

"The Goddess of Singing is said to be a new god who just reached the top a few hundred years ago. Well... I don't know the details."

"The new god who just reached the summit..." This news was true, which surprised Jason.

Someone really becomes a god.

I couldn't help but think of the recipe given by Alka before.

In this way, the authenticity of the formula is greatly improved.

Jason chatted with the bartender for a while and then drank the wine in the bottle.

There was a crisp sound of coins clinking on the table, and then he stood up and left.

"Wow~"

After Jason left, the bartender looked at the coins Jason placed on the table and couldn't help but marvel.

A shining golden sail was placed under the wine glass.

"It's really generous. It seems to be quite powerful. I hope there will be more generous guests like this."

The bartender prayed a little for Jason, smiled, held the coin in his palm, wiped it, and carefully put it into his inner pocket.

Outside.

Jason walked out of the tavern and walked aimlessly on the street, recalling the information he had just obtained in his mind.

Processing this information, thinking about which of the obtained information is more authentic.

Which ones are useful and which ones are nonsense.

He couldn't really expect the bartender to give out any trustworthy or secret information.

While thinking, I passed by a two-story blue building.

The exaggerated and special sign on the building attracted Jason's attention.

This sign is completely out of the same dimension as the surrounding buildings and religious atmosphere, and is a bit too conspicuous.

There is a feeling that the painting styles are not on the same channel.

It was a slender fish like a sharp arrow. What was interesting was that it had a pair of thin, insect-like transparent wings on its back.

A peculiar flying fish.

Mainly because the picture is in cartoon style.

Looking down, it is obvious that a special spell effect has been applied to the plaque.

Even if you don't know the words above, you can still know the meaning expressed on it.

"Feiyu Newspaper"

Newspaper office?

Jason walked in curiously.

This kind of building looks very big, but the place where guests are received has only a small window.

A piece of transparent glass blocked the two of them.

There are various things like stacks of books and papers hanging inside, which can be clearly seen through the glass.

An unknown fish-man sat inside.

After watching Jason come over, he raised his head and looked at him.

"Want to buy a newspaper? One silver snake?"

A silver snake?

Jason looked at the contents inside. Several thin, large black and white papers were stacked together.

This thing needs a silver snake?

But Jason still paid the money and took the newspaper in his hand.

Fortunately, he still knew the words on it.

The words written above are the common characters of Jiayuanhai.

He didn't know the left island of the Twin Islands. Anyway, the language used on the right island was the lingua franca of the Home Sea.

However, along the way he also heard many languages ​​​​that he did not understand at all.

But this language had been heard spoken by Simon before.

It seems that the language used in Zuodao is different.
