Two hundred and thirty kilometers to the south of Cape Eggarth on the Southern Continent was an uncharted sea area that had never been marked on human navigation charts.
* Whoosh whoosh whoosh … *
Outside a circular island was a large area of high-speed vortexes. There were at least a hundred vortexes of various sizes that stretched out for dozens of kilometers. It was a spectacular sight.
The largest of the vortexes was almost ten meters wide. Even a warship could be swallowed up if it came here.
Although there were lush vegetation and clear streams on the large island, it was desolate and uninhabited. There were no birds, as if it had always maintained its original appearance.
Suddenly.
A slightly distorted [Black Cavity] opened up in the air.
It was as if a carriage that was moving normally had a car accident. The two figures were thrown out by a tremendous force and fell into the continuous whirlpool outside the island.
Two or more high-speed torrents of different directions, speed, and temperature acted on the two of them, pulling them down to the dark bottom of the sea.
"What is this place?"
Holding back the dizziness, Elvin took off his Iron Cross Medal and placed it on Olivia's chest. Perhaps it was a headache or heartache, but Olivia had already fainted. Elvin did not know if it was because of a headache or heartache, but the dizziness was like a roller coaster ride.
Then, he hugged her tightly to his chest and swung his legs. With the strength of a Grade 3 Transcendent, he struggled to break free from the torrents and jumped onto the water surface. He stepped on the waves and carefully avoided the vortexes, finally rushing to the circular island.
He didn't have time to think about where he was after he accidentally "broke down." The first thing he did was to take off the [Thunderbird Robe] that he was wearing and spread it on the beach. Then, he gently placed the wet and curvy girl on it.
* Snap! *
He snapped his fingers.
Elvin, who was about to use the Activating Spirit Light to dehydrate their clothes, was surprised to find that the activity of the "magic elements" here was extremely sluggish.
Although it had almost turned into an instinctive Activating Spirit Light, it was much more difficult to use it.
Under such circumstances, a Grade 2 official Wild Wizard might not be able to defeat a fully-armed ordinary soldier without relying on equipment.
"Forbidden magic?"
A word instantly popped up in his mind, and its effect was far more powerful than the Spirit of Speech that the Red Maple had used.
He switched to [Sword Art Mysteries — Low Voltage Pulse] to sense the environment and confirmed that there was not even a rat here.
It took a herculean effort to remove the salt and water from their clothes. After that, he confirmed that Olivia was in good condition.
Elvin then sat down on the beach beside the girl.
Only then did he feel a sharp pain in his arms. He pulled open his torn sleeves and found that his arms were slightly fractured. Obviously, with his current strength, even if he could only block a peak Grand Knight for a minute, it would still be too difficult.
Even though he had used the lightning rod to block Griffith's final [Retribution], the Transcendent longsword had to pay the price of bending its spine and almost being scrapped.
But that was not a problem, with his Lightning speed, he should be able to recover in a day.
Only after confirming the casualties did he have time to consider the current situation.
"First of all, I can confirm that there was an accident with the Shadow Leap and it did not reach the designated area."
After discovering the forbidden magic effect, Elvin did a series of experiments and came to a conclusion.
"Not only is it forbidden magic, I can't even open the 'Magic Pouch'. There's also a space restriction and a spiritual isolation barrier. I can't connect to the mental network here, and I can't enter the Spirit World. "
He looked back at Kaka, who could not maintain Shadowform and had arrived in the material world.
"Even the Shadow Realm has been isolated. Then, there are other anti-divination, concealment, direction confusion, and so on … similar to Port Hatrapha's maze. Although I haven't tested it yet, there shouldn't be a lack of them.
So, what secret is there on this deserted island that doesn't even seem to have a rat? "
Elvin frowned. He was sure that the Shadow Leap had crashed into the isolation barrier here, causing this accident. Looking at the oddities on this island, it was definitely not as simple as an ordinary deserted island.
"The most important thing is …"
He had already determined his latitude through the angle of the sun and the current time. He didn't flee north as expected. Instead, he headed south and plunged into the sea south of Cape Eckles, where turbulence and huge waves were prevalent.
He was going in the opposite direction!
Elvin picked up the Shadow Wyrm, who had shrunk its body and was foolishly competing with a pebble. He pinched its tail and lifted it up. He smiled like an old father who was not so kind.
"Kaka, why don't you explain to your father what is going on?"
"Kaka … Kaka …"
Kaka, who had just been hatched by Elvin for more than a year and whose intelligence couldn't be compared to Beth's, only knew how to bare its fangs and brandish its claws.
On the other hand, the girl, who had already woken up, opened her eyes and said coldly,
"It seems that someone thought that Kaka didn't jump far enough, so he took out a Shadow School of Thought witchcraft item. He probably shook Kaka's eyes, and their abilities interfered with each other."
He had obtained the Shadow School of Thought's witchcraft item from the magic pocket of the Poison School of Thought's Zombie. Its technology was advanced and its jumping distance was very far.
[Witchcraft Item, Shadow Cloak]
Effect: A witchcraft creation from the Shadow School. Allows the target covered by the cloak to enter the gap of the Shadow Realm and 100% block the view of the material world.
[Witchcraft Item, Shadow Realm Lantern]
Effect: By imprisoning the soul of a Shadow Realm creature, the soul can be used as lamp oil to illuminate the path to the Shadow Realm.
Of course, it was better to retreat as soon as possible. After entering the [Black Cavity], Elvin wanted to make him even more powerful. However, the "Shadow Realm" was obviously not within their scope of knowledge. There was still a chance of making a mistake.
"Ahem …"
He coughed awkwardly, put Kaka down, and patted its head.
He changed the topic without batting an eyelid. First, he explained the current situation to the girl. Then, he asked Olivia with concern.
"Hersey, are you really okay?"
The girl was still holding a grudge against him for throwing away tens of thousands of gold coins. Even though she knew that they might be trapped on a deserted island, she did not have the slightest bit of energy to break out of this predicament.
She took a few deep breaths to relieve the pain in her chest. She lowered her eyes and waved her hand listlessly.
"My wallet is heavily injured. I'm fine. I just lost the ability to cast spells temporarily. Let me rest for a while."
Olivia was very confident in Elvin's reliability. She did not hesitate to explain her situation. She was also very relieved to entrust her entire life to him.
After spending a long time together in the material world and the spiritual world where time flowed 36 times faster, the two had become the most familiar with each other. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were "more than friends, but not yet lovers."
Perhaps all that was needed was an opportunity …
After all this time, Elvin had never seen Olivia like this. Her long hair had lost its luster, and the galaxy in her eyes no longer shone. Even her beautiful face, which was as fair as snow, had dimmed.
He finally understood that this was a psychological trauma caused by losing a Gemstone Star. His heart skipped a beat. He could not help but place a hand on her head. Before the girl could protest, he said casually, "Give me the bill.
"Give me the bill. I'll reimburse you."
The girl's body instantly stiffened. She raised her head abruptly. The light in her sapphire-like eyes seemed to be able to burn the face of a Transcendent.
Question: When is a man the most handsome?
Answer: When you take out your wallet.
At the very least, Olivia could not help but cover her beautiful face with her hands as she laid on the beach and looked at the tall, gold-rimmed Elven who was squatting beside her. Her heart raced wildly in her chest as she looked at him.
"How … can a man be … so handsome?!"
The next moment.
The girl suddenly jumped up from the ground. She grabbed Elvin's hand and rushed into the sea.
"Full health! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! The battlefield is still waiting for us. We can't waste our time here! "
.....
However, the two of them did not manage to rush into the sea.
Because at the same time that magic was banned and the sky was restricted, the huge whirlpool outside was the first barrier, and beyond that was the monstrous "Headless Wave" that could be imagined.
Although Olivia, who was also an official Knight, would not turn into a weak lamb even if she lost her ability to cast spells.
However, the two of them agreed that the most realistic method at present was to find the source of these forbidden abilities and break them before leaving the island.
After half a day, they used various methods to determine the types of forbidden abilities on the island:
[Anti-Magic Barrier], [Divination Immunity], [Trace Concealment], [Direction Confusion], [Presence Concealment], [Airspace Restriction], [Spiritual Isolation], and [Shadow Realm Prohibition].
It was somewhat similar to the "Maze Lock" in Port Hatrapha, but countless times more brilliant.
They also had a certain understanding of the island's geography. The north side, all the way to Cape Eckles, should be a shallow sea. The south side had a huge seabed cliff that led straight to the abyssal plains that were thousands of meters deep.
After that, they began to investigate the situation around the island, hoping to find the source of these restrictions.
Elvin's combat strength was the most complete, and he also had the [Low Voltage Pulse] that could be used to sense the environment. He became the main force of the exploration.
Although they did not discover any abnormalities for the time being, he was surprised to find the legendary "Whale Fall" on the slope of the underwater cliff where there was no sunlight at all.
The huge "Whale Fall" obviously came from a giant whale that was no smaller than a sea monster.
When a whale died in the sea, its carcass would slowly sink to the bottom of the sea, and in the process, a unique ecosystem would be formed. The Whale Fall could support a cycle system with decomposers as the main body for up to a hundred years. This was the last tenderness left by the whale to the sea.
With nothing to show for the time being, Elvin returned to the surface of the sea and told Olivia about the 'whale fall' that had happened to him.
The girl's blue eyes stared at the sea, the sea breeze ruffling her long hair. For a moment, she seemed to be deeply moved. She could not help but tilt her head slightly and ask Elvin, who was beside her.
"Absorbing nutrients from nature and returning them to the world at the end of one's life. The cycle and balance of nature. Is this the philosophy of the School of Vitality?"
Hearing the girl's question and looking at her beautiful side profile, Elvin felt that if he answered this question honestly, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
He turned to look into Olivia's beautiful sapphire eyes and said in a serious tone, "You're right, Miss Olivia.
"No, actually, I want to live forever … with you!"
Olivia lifted her crystal shoes and the hem of her dress. She stood barefooted in the waves. She was slightly taken aback. She hesitated for a moment.
"You … don't tell me you don't want to repay your debt?"
Elvin hurriedly waved his hand.
"How can that be? How can that be? "
The girl's lips bloomed into a charming smile, like a hundred flowers blooming. With a sly look in her eyes, she suddenly stuck her head out.
Smack!
Feeling the lingering coolness on his lips, Elvin, whose mind was blank and could no longer distinguish between north and south, recalled a famous saying from his previous life.
"Don't try to guess a girl's thoughts. You can't guess as fast as she changes.
But this time, she's changed for the better! "
At this moment, the two people who were like clouds did not notice that on the surface of the sea not far in front of them, a huge white snake was bobbing up and down in the waves.
