In the darkness of the night.

The Sea Fist sails above the ocean.

Not far away is a small island.

Taking advantage of the night, the Sea Fist slowly sailed into the harbor of the island.

The islanders, who were on guard in the harbor, became vigilant when they saw the ship, and then took advantage of the moonlight to see which ship it was.

This is the same island that Arka came to do the touch ritual before.

At this time, a farewell ceremony was being held on the ship.

"Bobby, I'll have to send you here, and we'll see you later."

Bobby smiled and nodded.

Then he looked at the rest of the crowd and hugged them one by one.

"Then I'll go first, may Our Lady bless you!"

Bobby then stepped off the ship with his two apprentices.

The ship, which was already sparsely numbered, immediately became even colder and empty after leaving the three of them.

Everyone watched Bobby leave, and the ship slowly exited the berth on its own, heading out of the island.

"Okay, it's late, pack up and rest, parting is always normal in life."

Andrei said with a smile as he looked at several young people.

As the ship sailed into the darkness, the sea in the distance suddenly boiled like boiling water.

The blue line bird stood in Andrei's ear.

"Stop the boat!"

With Andrei's order, the ship slowly slowed down and stopped.

Out of the darkness reappeared, the Ship of Shadows that had been seen before.

Andrei took out the pocket he had used to quickly hold his treasure.

Then he turned to the crowd and said, "Do you have any money to save?" ”

Hearing this, Arka didn't understand it for a moment.

But everyone present, except for Arka and Shadetti, took out a large part of the gold coins they had obtained before, put them in a gold coin bag and handed them to Andre.

This time, the Shadow Ship did not stay in the distance, but slowly approached and docked at the side of the Sea Fist.

Seeing such a scene, Andre couldn't help but pat his head helplessly.

"Hahaha, Andre, aren't you doing big things next door these days?"

An unusually tall black-haired man in light chain mail approached.

Without saying anything, he hugged Andre fiercely.

"Uncle William."

"Ah, it's Xia Daiti, you're getting more and more beautiful."

"Uncle, it's over."

After a brief pleasantry, the stout man named William looked at the magic bag in Andrei's hand and the bags of gold coins in front of him.

"Looks like you've got a big catch."

Hearing this, Andre waved his hand helplessly.

"There must be something wrong with you coming to my boat, don't drag it here, let's talk about it."

Hearing this, William's face was not embarrassed, but said with some seriousness: "We have found the clue of the Holy Artifact of the Holy Mother. ”

Hearing this, Andrei also became serious.

William took out a thick file in parchment and stuffed it into Andrei's arms.

Then he took the pocket that Andrei had borrowed from him, as well as the bags of gold coins at his feet.

"Okay, my pocket is back, and I'll save your gold coins for you."

"Goodbye!"

Saying that, the stout man named William returned to his shadow ship without hesitation.

Even if the ship is docked next to the Sea Fist, it seems to stay in the shadows, and it is impossible to see it really.

With the vanishing of the shadow ship, André also returned to his captain's chamber alone.

Only then did Arka look at Shadetti next to him.

Facing Arka's puzzled gaze, Xia Daiti just smiled and explained.

"It wasn't a wise decision to put so much money on a ship, which is why he was asked to help store it in the cathedral, where it was absolutely safe."

"Don't be afraid that they will be greedy, they are the Walk of Shadows, the blade in the hands of Our Lady."

Hearing this, Arka couldn't help but think of the previous loss.

Dozens of golden sails really have to be stored in a safe place, and if they are placed on the ship, they will indeed be unsafe.

But Arka didn't care, he had put the gold in his pocket ring after all.

Even if there are hundreds of golden sails, the weight is not light, but the area will be only a little bit.

It will not affect the use of Arka in the slightest.

"Why don't you save it?"

"Didn't I tell you last time, I also want to buy a pocket ring, these are the funds to be used."

Arka then remembered and nodded.

"That was the ...... Got a task? ”

Xia Daiti nodded: "That's right, this situation will occur, and there is a task, after all, we are members of the church." ”

"I haven't done a task before, will it be difficult?" At this time, Jason next to him couldn't help but ask.

After all, he had only joined the treasure hunt for two years, and he had been a trainee crew member for the first two years.

As a result, Xia Daiti also shook his head: "Actually, I have only joined the treasure hunt group for less than three years, which is more than half a year earlier than Jason, and I have been training in the cathedral before. ”

"In other words, you became the first to be the toucher, and then you joined the treasure hunt?"

Alka asked

Xia Daiti nodded.

At this time, Vanessa, who heard their chat, came over and looked at the young people and said, "Do you want my sister to tell you?" ”

Hearing this, Xia Daiti walked up with a smile and directly reached out to hold Vanessa's arm.

Sticking up with her, he asked intimately, "Sister Vanessa, tell us quickly." ”

Vanessa smiled and said, "The church rarely gives us tasks in person, and it is always just that we find some information or report something wrong. ”

In other words, although we are members of the church, we are relatively free after all.

Arka couldn't help but think.

"It's rare, but it's not impossible, and there was one about four years ago."

"It took us a whole year, and there was even a full member who was seriously injured and had to quit the treasure hunt."

Hearing this, Arka and the others couldn't help but become serious.

In other words, the church either does not give a task, or it gives a task, which is not easy to accomplish and has a lot of danger.

"So, you have to be prepared, especially the two of you." Vanessa said solemnly, and looked at Arka and Jason by the way.

After all, it was only a short time before they became touchers.

Whether it's the magic circuit cultivation or the mantra proficiency, it's one level worse than others.

The two also nodded solemnly.

After a little chat, everyone went back to their cabins.

Arka was also lying on the bed.

He closed his eyes and controlled the magic circuits in his body, and began to meditate.
