Waves were brewing under the calm sea.
Starting from the black canyon to the treasure island, the danger level of the sea increased exponentially. Even the other sea creatures wouldn't easily set foot in this place. With Søren's current ability, he could easily feel the energy waves from the bottom of the sea. It was a radiation that covered a large area. There might be a whirlpool in this area, but he wasn't sure how it was formed. Sometimes, a huge whirlpool would appear and suck everything nearby into the depths of the sea.
Currently, he didn't know what was going on inside the whirlpool. Even the gods wouldn't easily set foot in it. He could only guess that it was related to the ruins at the bottom of the sea.
There was an underwater volcano near the treasure island.
Although this island had a lot of wealth, the geographical environment was much worse than Modo. Perhaps only the natives could live here happily. The volcano didn't show any signs of eruption yet, and it wasn't clear if it would erupt in the future. However, some adventurers had done research and determined that this was probably an active volcano that would erupt once every hundred years or so.
Søren led the fleet along the route in his memory for a day.
Soon.
A huge island appeared in his line of sight. There was a lush primeval forest on it. This island was more than ten times larger than Modo. It was about two-thirds the size of Taiwan Island. Large islands like this were scattered around this area. Many of them were left behind from the time when the land sank. The largest island nearby was about two hundred thousand square kilometers in area.
"Stop!"
Søren stared at the island in front of him. A cold light appeared in his eyes.
He was a predator on this trip to the treasure island. He had to adjust his attitude so that it wouldn't affect his judgment. Because the island was very large, Søren could only choose a place to land. There was no natural harbor here. In the past, the adventurers had built a harbor, so it wasn't convenient for the fleet to land directly.
"Roar!"
The low roar of a beast could be heard.
The forest far away from the treasure island was crooked. Søren only needed to take a glance to know his approximate location.
This was the territory of the Top-armed King Kong!
The dangerous creatures entrenched in the sea weren't just the natives, spirits, and mutated creatures. There were also creatures that were born with great power.
The Tongbi Gorilla was one of the most dangerous creatures on Treasure Island!
If you didn't provoke them, these silverback gorillas with their monstrous strength were easy to get along with. However, if you accidentally angered these behemoths, they would definitely become terrifying existences!
An adult Tongbi Gorilla could weigh more than two tons. They had a body of steel and iron, and their huge fists could break mountains and crush rocks with their bare hands. The mutated environment of the outer islands had further strengthened these terrifying fellows. Sometimes, they could even be seen clashing head-on with demigod spirits. The Tongbi Gorilla was also one of the masters of Treasure Island.
Bottomless Abyss, 90th floor.
Due to the unique environment of the Abyss, there would occasionally be some good landforms. The 90th floor of the Abyss was a plane similar to a tropical rainforest. The Demon Lord here was called Balgra, and it was an enormous gorilla. Treasure Island's Tongbi Gorilla had always been suspected to be related to this Demon Lord. This was because the Giant Gorillas here all had good intelligence. It was impossible for an ordinary creature of the material plane to be born with a creature level close to Level 10.
Another dangerous creature on Treasure Island was the Slime (Ooze Monster).
On the main road, Slime had become very rare. The reason for this was unknown, but traces of Slime could be seen in the outer islands. The Slime here was more troublesome. They were all relatively dangerous creatures. Due to their racial characteristics, the Slime's ability to mutate was extremely high. The harsher the environment, the more powerful they were, the more powerful they would be.
Occupying the side of Treasure Island were the Demon Slime.
It was a swampy area, and basically didn't conflict with Søren's goal. The Slime here served the Demon Lord of the 222nd floor of the Abyss, the [Faceless King] – Julix.
This floor was also called the [Slime Hell]!
The Demon Slime that occupied the swampy area served the Demon Lord of the abyss. They should be the [Faceless King]'s few believers in the material plane.
Finally.
Treasure Island had the most indigenous people. There were many indigenous tribes here, and their scale was also relatively large. Many of them served the demigod spirits.
Søren's goal was these indigenous people.
The servants of the [Faceless King] rarely left the swampy area. As long as the Top-armed King Kong didn't enter their territory, there would be no problem. These monsters had a large appetite and attached great importance to their territory.
Other than that.
There weren't any particularly dangerous enemies on Treasure Island.
— — "Fly."
As the fleet docked nearby, Søren's figure also flew up. When he rose hundreds of meters into the air, Søren saw the figure of a Quetzalcoatlus. These dragon subspecies were distributed on many islands and could be seen almost everywhere. However, the Quetzalcoatlus's scale was very small. At most, there were dozens of them gathered together. For Søren, they were not a threat at all.
Under his feet was a dense jungle.
He could see broken trees and huge footprints on the ground. The figure of the Top-armed King Kong was easy to recognize. Their weight of nearly two tons made them completely shake when they moved in groups. They were the overlords of the south of the island. Even the indigenous people were not willing to provoke them. Flying all the way along the coast, the ground gradually opened up. There was a very lush grassland. There were many velociraptors living here. Dinosaurs had been active in overseas areas, and occasionally there were figures similar to Tyrannosaurus rex.
[Father of Dinosaurs] – Utau.
This god with great divine power was once active in the material plane. Now there were few traces of his believers. No one knew if they disappeared in the long river of history or went to other planes.
The velociraptors came and went like the wind on the grassland.
They hunted all the creatures they could kill. Indigenous people were the most common prey, but occasionally they would be tamed. The tamed velociraptors would generally have a bird feather on their heads. The indigenous tribes regarded them as battle aids, but the number of domesticated velociraptors had always been small because they needed to consume a lot of meat.
After passing through the endless tropical forest, they could see a swamp that was not small in size.
There was a super-giant slime with a challenge rating of about 20 here. Because of its own characteristics, this monster was very difficult to kill, so no one killed it until the end of the Avatar Crisis.
There were distributed rivers inside the treasure island, and the central river was the territory of the piranhas.
There were huge electric eels near the southwest. This mutant creature could release terrible electric currents, and the strength was equivalent to the fifth or sixth circle spells. It was also something that no one dared to provoke.
As for those mutant plants, there was nothing to talk about. They were too common overseas. As long as one was careful not to get close to them.
That was the general situation of the treasure island.
In terms of the environment, it was much worse than the city of Modor, so it would take a long time for Søren to develop it. The most important thing was to take down those open-air gold mines first. About 50 kilometers away from the current coastline, there was a large indigenous tribe. There was a relatively small river next to the tribe. Gold sand could be directly extracted from this river.
…
Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.
Søren flew on the island for a long time and encountered a Quetzalcoatlus. He was bored and teased it. The aura of the gods scared it so much that it almost fell from the sky.
In the evening.
After returning to the warship, Søren immediately took out a piece of white paper, and then picked up a pen and quickly drew on it.
He had never been a rash person.
If he rushed to the island with only the memory of the past, he was afraid that at least half of the elites brought by Søren would die. He flew on the treasure island for so long today just to memorize the topographic map of the island.
He had the ability to remember everything he saw.
Søren quickly drew the outline of a map, then marked the terrain of each area, and then marked the distribution of all kinds of creatures, including the indigenous tribes he saw. Then he marked the convenient landing places near the island. From the map, he found the safest route that would not alarm other dangerous creatures and would not pass through their territory.
Finally.
He began to think about tomorrow's battle plan!
He planned and acted.
In a dangerous place like the sea, if he did not make more preparations, even Søren would not be able to bear the casualties.
…
The next day.
The fleet continued to move forward for about ten kilometers and then landed in front of a beach.
A group of elite pirates came down from the deck, followed by the pirate leaders brought by Søren. They were Scarface, Cyclops, and Giant.
This time, Søren only brought over two thousand people!
But all of them were elite pirates. Whether it was their strength or their equipment, they were all first-class. They were the core of Søren's combat power that he had accumulated for so long.
If he were to risk it all here, he was afraid that it would really hurt his muscles and bones!
"All troops on standby!"
Søren glanced at the gathered elite pirates and said in a deep voice, "Leave a group of people here to guard. Rogues, follow me to explore the path. The rest of you, get ready for battle. "
In terms of distance.
This place was not far from the indigenous tribes. Søren was not sure if they had discovered his fleet.
Now, it was time to test his strength!
Defeating an indigenous tribe was not a big deal at all. The goal was to reduce the casualties to the minimum. Moreover, what Søren wanted was not simply to destroy the enemy, but to capture as many captives and slaves as possible. In the end, the workers of the gold mine would have to find a way from these indigenous people. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to transport people from afar to mine the gold.
To achieve this goal.
Søren was afraid that he would have to crush the indigenous people's faith and fighting spirit with a crushing force!
