CHAPTER 372: CHAPTER 207: SAILING SHIP RUINS_2

Just casually stumbling upon an island, and there’s another Treasure to be gained?

This made them feel a bit unreal.

"’Really? Is there actually a Treasure on this island? You weren’t tricked by that person, were you?’ Jason couldn’t help but ask from the side.

Compared to the island truly having a Treasure, he thought the possibility of Alka being tricked was higher.

The main reason was that obtaining the Treasure seemed too easy, giving them the illusion of discovering it simply by wandering around.

Pororo, next to him, nodded in agreement.

Alka shot them a glance and waved his hand. "In the Dream World, I’m not easily deceived."

"’Then it’s real,’ Chadite said, her voice tinged with excitement.

Who wouldn’t be excited?

"’What are we waiting for then? Let’s go!’ Lucilia declared, jumping directly onto the table and raising the long needle in her hand.

Ling, following behind her, also raised her fist, cheering along.

"’Charge!’ Er, perched on Chadite’s shoulder, raised her hands and cheered.

Seeing the cheering Er, Alka reached out and gently took her down.

"This time, you and Yi will stay on the ship."

"’Ah!’ Er exclaimed, clearly surprised. She then clung to Alka’s hand, her eyes welling up with tears.

"’I beg you, Alka, let me go too!’"

"’No. There’s no room for discussion this time. You two will stay on the ship,’ Alka said firmly, shaking his head.

This time, battles were certain, so Alka definitely had to choose Ling to come along.

As vice-captain, her strength was only slightly lower than Lucilia’s; she had also reached Three Spirals.

Then Alka turned to look at Juanlu. The unspoken message was clear.

Juanlu wasn’t surprised and nodded. "Don’t worry, I’ll guard this ship well."

"’Mm,’ Alka nodded.

"And Jason, hide that egg you’re carrying a bit better; don’t let it get attacked."

Hearing Alka’s words, Jason patted the egg inside his hood.

Due to the special design of his clothes, the egg seemed to be wrapped within the fabric, making it difficult to discern its true appearance from the outside.

"’Don’t worry.’"

The monsters on the island had been identified during the previous exploration. Most of them were Two Spirals, making up the largest proportion.

However, Alka knew from the Difficulty rating of each Treasure point that the main enemies in this battle would mostly be Three Spirals and Four Spirals, with one Five Spirals and one Six Spirals enemy also present.

Neither Yi nor Er, nor even Juanlu, could provide much help in such a battle.

They might even become distractions. In severe cases, they could become a burden.

This wasn’t due to their intentions, but their current strength could lead to such consequences.

In such situations, Alka would find it difficult to ensure their safety, especially in battles against Six Spirals enemies.

These difficulty ratings were all benchmarked against Team Holy Light, indicating there would be multiple enemies in ample numbers, primarily because the two ships were so large.

Alka couldn’t afford wishful thinking. It would lead his teammates into unnecessary danger, an outcome he absolutely couldn’t accept.

In such cases, without reaching Three Spirals, it was really hard to contribute to the team.

After finalizing the members for the exploration, everyone boarded the Swallow and arrived at the beach.

This time, Pororo and Chadite still took the lead, with Jason and Alka following behind. Julia was positioned in the center of the group so she could provide support to others as needed.

Lucilia hid directly among the branches. Her petite figure and speed, combined with the assassin-type Spells she had deliberately learned, made her movements extremely stealthy.

Ling, the maid, accompanied Lucilia.

Just like that, they moved straight toward the center of the island.

They encountered virtually no zombies along the way, as they had already traversed this path yesterday and cleared out all the enemies.

They remained vigilant, just in case new enemies had appeared.

Now it seemed that no enemies had replenished their numbers.

They proceeded very smoothly and, in perfect condition, arrived at the central area they had reached the previous day.

Nothing here had changed.

They looked at the wreckage of the two massive ships before them.

"’Which one do we explore first?’ Chadite asked.

Alka didn’t hesitate, directly pointing to the wooden shipwreck slightly further away—the one where the Treasure was hidden.

Get the most valuable Treasure first, and deal with the most dangerous target here while we’re at it. While we’re still in perfect condition.

After confirming the target, the group circled around. They bypassed the steel shipwreck from its edge and reached the perimeter of the wooden wreckage further back.

Looking at the dilapidated sailboat wreckage, they could already see inside through its cracks and holes.

With the naked eye, they spotted several zombies motionless in various places, some sitting, others standing, like statues.

Like most undead, they remained motionless when no enemies were present, conserving Energy.

After understanding the general situation, Alka glanced at Jason beside him.

Jason nodded.

Then he raised the Emerald Shooter in his hand and, aiming carefully, quickly pulled the trigger.

With a muffled sound, a bullet flew out, shimmering with a faint Holy Light.
