It was the fifth day since Elvin and the others entered Giant's Eye.
Woo woo woo …
The wind on the surface of the sea was still blowing chaotically, and there was even a fine drizzle. However, the island did not seem to have the slightest intention of lifting the ban.
Many physical-type Extraordinaires of other forces had used the trees on the island to build simple houses, and after the food they brought with them was exhausted, they could only rely on hunting the wild beasts here to maintain their combat strength.
However, Elvin and Jeros were sitting on stone stools created by the "Revitalizing Aura" on the shore, sitting around the stone table in the middle and cooking a pot of green tea.
With the [Sorcerer's Garden] that they carried with them, the two great wizards would not let themselves be wronged no matter where they went. Seeing that no new forces had appeared on the nearby island for a long time, the two of them were still in the mood to give advice.
"The Church of the Seven Gods, the governments of many countries, multinational organizations, sea hunters, adventurers, great pirates, sorcerer schools, unknown speculators … If they hadn't all gathered at the Giant's Eye, I wouldn't have known that we have so many competitors."
Right now, the closest group to their island was a group of elite pirates. When it came to chasing after treasures, as long as there was a chance, the pirates would obviously not let it go.
Originally, there were seven pirate kings on the four main seas that were prosperous with trade.
The "Golden Sea" had come, and Bradley and Huggins had been removed from the list. The pirate kings of the Eritrean Sea were too far away, and when they received the news, they obviously could not make it in time. However, the pirate king of the "Sea of Treasures", Black Sam Bellamy, had led a group of people here.
Although it seemed that the loss was not small, they had successfully obtained the ticket to the final competition.
In addition, Elvin also heard that after the fall of the Black Sea's pirate king, Huggins, a new pirate king rose rapidly and gradually took over the former forces and industries under his command. It was just that his reputation had just risen and he was keeping a low profile for the time being.
However, these ordinary Grade 3 Extraordinaires were no longer in the eyes of the two great wizards.
When the time came, even Anita would not have to do anything. As long as the two of them worked together, even the Holy Knight of the Church of the Seven Gods with a holy sword would not be a match for them in this space.
Once the seal was opened, they were prepared to make the first move. After obtaining the most important [Ancient Scroll], the more treasures they could obtain, the better.
So after hearing Elvin's words, Jeros picked up the porcelain teacup in front of him and took a sip of the sweet tea. He said indifferently, "No matter what the rules here are, the number of competitors is meaningless to us."
After a few days of observation, they had already guessed that most of the thousands of warships that were fighting in the sea should be due to the special laws of this space.
But some of them should be outsiders. They either gave up halfway, failed in the end, or didn't come to this "giant's eye" space at all. Then, they left their original vehicles here.
In just a few days, new heroic spirits of the same style had appeared on many of the warships that they used to travel with. They piloted these warships and joined the battle on the sea.
Although the notes that Jeros obtained before did not have a specific description of the rules of this space, combined with the current situation, it was nothing more than a battle between battleships or a fight between personnel. It might also be a combination of the two.
Either way, it was exactly what they were good at.
Suddenly.
As if they felt something in advance, the two of them looked up at the depths of the "giant's eye" at the same time.
Woo —!
Then, a long foghorn sound resounded through the entire sea of two million square kilometers.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Immediately, figures flashed on dozens of islands on the periphery of the sea. They all shot to the seaside and looked in the direction of the center of the sea. Elvin and Jeros were no exception. They immediately called out their companions who were in the [Sorcerer's Garden].
No one who could reach the sixth floor was weak. When they rushed out, they had already sorted out their equipment.
Ten minutes later, when the third foghorn sound ended.
The drizzle on the surface of the sea had completely disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a thick fog that was spreading rapidly from the center of the "Eye of the Giant" until it swallowed all the islands at the outermost edge.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh …
When the fog disappeared and their vision was restored, they found that they had arrived on an ancient sailboat. The creaking of the deck, the sound of the waves, and the salty sea breeze made them realize that they had finally left the small island that they had been trapped on for a long time.
On the deck, there were eighty soldiers wearing the ancient Holy Lothar Empire's Segmonta breastplates, D-type helmets, short swords, and oval infantry shields. They were lined up neatly and saluted them. As for the oarsmen in the cabin, they were not combatants and were not qualified to be on the deck.
An officer with red decorations on his helmet stepped forward and saluted.
"Commander, 'Copper Horn' reporting to you!"
"This is …?"
Soon, the group realized that the final competition had begun. This was indeed the warship duel that they had guessed at the beginning.
Elvin looked at the sea with the keen senses of a superior wizard. He could see everything within a hundred kilometers.
Except for the Iron Wall Knight of the "Black Iron Cross Church" who boarded their own [Quasi-Legendary Warship, Voyager], all the churches of the true gods were well-equipped.
When the warships were assigned, they all boarded the ships that were sent here in advance. In the past few days, heroic spirits had been born on these warships.
Obviously, the information that they had was far more accurate than the information that Elvin and the others relied on from a few words in a notebook. This was also the reason why they did not have to worry about losing their valuable assets when they sailed the "Quasi-Legendary Warship" at the beginning of the treasure hunt.
Except for the Silver Knight of the "Church of Dawn" who had been eliminated in advance.
In addition, they also noticed that many big forces with a long history, such as the wizards from the "Shattered Star Sea", were obviously prepared. The aura on their ships was also not ordinary.
However, the group did not panic at all. They ignored the sailboat and the heroic spirits that were equipped for them. They looked at each other and could not help but laugh in unison.
"Hahaha! God is helping me!"
Elvin sighed. It was really hard to meet a worthy opponent. He was as lonely as snow.
He was about to open the [Sorcerer's Garden] and take out his [Miracle Crown], ready to destroy all his opponents in an instant and send them all away.
After all, on a circular sea with a diameter of 1,600 kilometers, his hurricane missile with a range of 1,300 kilometers could destroy anything he wanted.
With a legendary warship, of course, he had the right to use the King's Contempt. He did not need to tell him who his opponent was. He only needed to tell him where he was.
However, he was stopped by Jeros. He patted his chest and said confidently,
"Mr. Garriott, I don't need your legendary warship. My Theseus can directly clear all the warships on this sea."
As he spoke, he opened his [Sorcerer's Garden].
However.
The [Quasi-Legendary Warship, Theseus], which was only one step away from becoming a legendary warship, could not be placed in the sea. It was as if the format did not support it.
Then, green clouds rippled out from Elvin, who frowned slightly, and the [Miracle Crown] received the same treatment.
For a moment, the deck was so quiet that it was scary.
Croak, croak, croak …
Fools … Fools …
Above the group of people whose faces were filled with the word "awkward", there seemed to be a large number of black crows flying past.
"Mr. Jeros, is there such a record in the notebook?"
The expression on the elegant middle-aged man's face was a little broken. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
"You've read the original notebook. It didn't mention this at all …"
Probably, the recorder did not have a [Sorcerer's Garden], nor did he have a private warship that was stronger than the warships here. Other than the treasures that he saw that made people drool, everything else was brushed aside by him.
There was also no mention of the rules of the game.
It was also at this moment.
A belated notification from the "Giant's Eye" space was sent to their consciousness. It also made the group of people feel as if thousands of alpacas were galloping through their hearts.
The stab in the back caught them off guard.
There were four main rules.
Rule One: Only the ship is a tool for navigation, and the ancient heroic spirits are your strong companions … Rule Two: The collective crew can only cross the sea if they work together … Rule Three: The unknown is where the fun lies … Rule Four: The superhuman gathering effect determines the direction of the ship, and the one that suits you is the best … Rule Four: The superhuman gathering effect determines the direction of the ship, and the one that suits you is the best …
Advice: All warships without a commander will be your enemy.
At this point, they could not help but look at each other.
"So, we can only use this piece of junk that is thousands of years behind the world?"
Although the rules were concise, they were still clear.
This was a trial for the team, and they could only participate in the competition with the ship as a unit. Individual heroism was not advocated, and they could not detect what treasures were hidden on the island in advance. They also had to face the attacks of outsiders and other heroic spirits at any time.
The outsiders could only act as commanders. They could only participate in the battle directly after landing on the island or connecting to the ship. During the battle between warships, attack, armor, and speed could not be interfered with.
Therefore, in this vast sea with a diameter of 1,600 kilometers and a total area of two million square kilometers, what kind of island they would encounter would depend on luck and extraordinary characteristics.
Moreover, as long as the warship was destroyed on the sea, if they were lucky enough to survive, they would be forcefully kicked out of the Clock Tower, and the treasure hunt would come to an end.
The ships of the other major factions could be used because their ships had already used a few days to adapt to the rules of this space. However, the Miracle Crown and Theseus, which had been stored in the Sorcerer's Garden, could not be used.
They did not need to test it themselves. They already saw that some people did not believe in heresy.
When they jumped into the sea, they would have to rush toward a floating island. However, even though they seemed to be extremely fast, they could never get close to any island.
At this moment.
* Splash … *
A Blacksail Pirate Ship had already accelerated and was rushing toward them.
Coincidentally, the first enemy they encountered was the Pirate King of the Treasure Sea, Black Sam Bellamy, who was treated as a topic of discussion and was not seen as an opponent.
Although his ship was not the strongest pirate flagship, it was still a three-masted speedboat that was at least equivalent to a Level Five ship. Its long-range firepower was not something a mere sailboat could compare to.
* Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! *
The cast iron cannonballs landed beside them one after another, splashing huge waves.
Under the control of the replenished heroic spirit crew, the sixteen 12-pounder cannons on one side of the ship roared. Obviously, they, who were well-versed in pirate tactics, would never choose to fight a sailboat head-on with a ram.
Elvin's team was speechless.
Jeros' team was speechless.
As a person … One should not be too complacent.
