Chapter Ninety-Seven: Darkness Strikes

With Jasmine's words.

A large pile of thick, paper-like stuff floated up from the box, and there was a lot of dust on it.

Float in front of them.

It was only when Arka realized that it was not some kind of paper, but a piece of leather that resembled some animal.

The leather was made of something like a canvas of paper, on which a map was clearly drawn.

The maps were stored in the box, and they were supposed to be in perfect condition, with the patterns still visible except for a slight obsolescence.

I only heard Jasmine say: "I used to be the president of the Chuck Chamber of Commerce of the Alliance, this is the chart within the Alliance, and there are various safe shipping routes. ”

"It used to be confidential, but now that the alliance is gone, it's useless."

Arka took it and looked at it.

The largest of these maps is a detailed map of the entire Dark Realm, with many safe routes and secret passages.

Every island, even some of the more dangerous seas, is clearly marked.

It can be said to be very detailed, and it is the most detailed map of the sea area that Arka has seen now.

The smaller maps below are more detailed maps of an area, an island, or a waterway.

It was so clear that even some of the reefs that could harm the ship were marked, where the sea conditions were bad, and where there were some sea beasts.

As long as it is dangerous, it will affect the navigation, and it is all marked, and there are even some dates and times, what dates, and which roads to take to sail faster.

Seeing this, Arka can be sure that this must have been classified information before.

If you want to make such a detailed map, it is simply not something that a small force can do, and it will take countless manpower and material resources, and even countless hours to complete.

If the map depicts the Blood and Gold Alliance, the pirates who have mastered the map will even be able to navigate through it.

Looting everywhere and being difficult to annihilate.

Arka blinked, and blue-white points of light flashed out.

There is even a golden glow.

Jasmine also looked at her box, then turned her head and said, "If you really succeed, there are some magic items I used to use here, and I will give them to you." ”

Hearing this, Arka and Jason instantly came to their senses.

"No problem, just wait for the good news."

After speaking, Jason nodded at Jasmine in front of him gentlemanly: "Then, let's leave first." ”

After saying that, the three of them stepped back, still facing the spirit in front of them.

Jasmine smiled brightly and waved at them until she disappeared into the darkness.

"Slow down Alka, she has something to say to me." Lucilia's voice was heard, and immediately turned into a cloud of smoke and flew into the darkness.

Arka slowed down, and less than 10 seconds later, Lucilia flew back into the necklace.

While Arka was still on their way back, Lucilia's voice came over.

"The previous fluctuation was deliberately released by her, and she just sensed that there was an same spirit as her above."

It turned out that the fluctuation could be felt by Lucilia for such a reason, so she would say such things the moment she came in.

She also said thank you for my help...... Said that if she succeeded in returning to the arms of the Blessed Virgin, she would give me some gifts of gratitude. Say I'm definitely going to need it. ”

Arka just nodded silently, indicating that she understood.

Now is not the time to answer.

The three of them came to the place where they had just come down and climbed up again.

"We're going to have to make a big contribution this time, hahaha."

After coming up, Jason patted the dust on his body and couldn't help but smile and said.

Arka shook his head helplessly and said, "Don't be happy so early, if you really get it, it's not too late to be happy."

Otherwise, happiness and sorrow will not be comfortable. ”

"And what do you think she's saying is true or false?" Hearing this, Jason turned to look at the two of them and asked.

As they spoke, the three of them walked towards the outside of the manor.

Garmi thought for a while and said, "It must be a believer in the Holy Mother, as for whether it is true or not, it will pass anyway, what do you want to do so much." ”

"That's right."

"But how did she know who the alliance was doomed to, didn't she say she died the moment she erupted?"

"I don't know, I haven't studied souls, and she didn't say she was trapped in that tunnel, she just said she was trapped in this dark sea."

"Forget it, pay more attention, we originally planned to go to that island anyway, but now it's just a step faster."

As they spoke, the three of them had already arrived outside the manor.

Looking at the pitch-black world, Arka controlled the mirror to reflect the light of the illuminating stone, turned his head to look at the two of them and said, "Then I'll pass the news to Andrei now?" ”

"Alright, come on, you're more proficient in this spell than I do." Jason nodded.

Arka opened his mouth and said something silently, and a little blue light flashed in his hand, and he rubbed it.

With his silent words, one blue line after another appeared in the air, forming a line of flying birds, flying out into the distance.

The distance of the Sound Bird is limited, and it is generally increased according to the magic instilled and the proficiency of the spell.

Jason was a little unsure of how close they were to Andre at this point, so he let Alka use it.

Arka also practices this functional mantra for daily use.

Basically, I am already very proficient in using the [Sound Bird] spell.

Passing in the enclosed area, he is confident that there is no problem.

"Then let's go to the port and wait for them now."

Hearing Jason's proposal, the two did not object, and walked back the way they came.

……

All the way back to the place where they had been on the road.

The men found a stone and sat down on it and waited.

Jason still held the pure gold civilization staff he found earlier in his hand, and waved it around in his hand.

Suddenly, the cane in his hand fell.

Hearing the sound of falling, the two immediately looked at him.

I saw that Jason suddenly began to blink his eyes and shake his head non-stop.

He patted his ears vigorously.

"Oh no, the darkness has invaded his spirit." Gami looked at this scene and said quickly.

Arka was getting ready to get up.

Jason raised his hand, stopped the two of them, shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's just that I've just started to hear the singing." ”

After saying that, he searched for it in the belt around his waist and took out a slender elixir the size of his index finger.

He opened the cork and drank it with his head up.

Seeing this action, the two of them sat back in their places with peace of mind.

This potion was specially configured for Vanessa when they left the ship, and its effect was to temporarily restore their spirits and dispel the darkness that had invaded their brains.

This agent works very quickly and conveniently, but it has certain side effects.

With a slight toxicity, ordinary people can't take it at all, and can only let Vanessa carry out more detailed treatment.

Those who touch it like them don't have this kind of concern, the slight toxicity can't cause any damage to their body, and a little meditation can wash it away through the cycle of magical power.

If it weren't for the time it took to sail in the Dark Domain, it might have taken 2~3 months.

Andre wanted to keep the sub-members outside.

As the potion drained, Jason closed his eyes and froze in place, only after a minute did he open his eyes and slowly exhale, relaxing.

Sit back down on the stone.

"Is this what it feels like to hear a murmur? It's really a little peculiar, a bit like a siren's song, but it's getting harder and worse to listen to later. ”

Hearing this, Arka couldn't help but turn his head to look at him, "Have you heard the song of the Siren?" ”

Jason shook his head: "Of course not, if I had heard, would I still be alive until now?" ”

"But you may not believe it, but I've heard mermaids sing."

"Poof!"

Hearing this, Gami couldn't help but laugh.

Looking at Gami's appearance, Jason shook his shoulders helplessly, shook his head and said, "Look, you don't believe it before I start to say it." ”

What do you mean?

Are mermaids really amazing creatures?

At first, Arka saw the Fish-Man and thought that mermaids would exist in this world.

After all, after knowing that this world is a world of oceans and has a different race, he thinks that such things as mermaids should not be unusual.

However, looking at the performance of these two people, it may not be the same as their own thoughts.

Garmi smiled and said, "You hear the mermaid's song?" I want to ask you where are the mermaids in this world? ”

"That's why I said you may not believe it, although I don't know where the song I heard at the time came from, but after hearing it, I thought it was a mermaid's song, which is a strange feeling."

Speaking of this, Jason himself couldn't help but smile and shook his head helplessly.

"It's weird to say, haha, but it's a really good song, and I still remember it vividly."

Then he waved his hand and diverted the subject.

Turning to Garmi, "What position did you hold in the church before?" ”

"Prepare the saints."

"Prepare saints, that's not bad, I think I wanted to be a saint before I was on the ship."

Saint Arka knows.

Ever since he knew that the Stone Mother was Our Lady, he had deliberately learned about the Church of Our Lady.

The saints are about some of the technicians in the Church, about the same position as the bishops of the region.

A technician is a person who has his or her own expertise.

For example, the force is very strong and so on.

Even the armed men of the Church, the Templars, could be called saints.

AndrΓ© was a saint.

"I heard that Xia Daiti was a preparatory saint in the past." Jason suddenly thought of something and said.

Is Shadetti a Preparatory Saint? Arka was a little puzzled, this was the first time he knew about this, and he had never heard Xia Daiti mention it.

Gammy nodded: "That's right, she used to be, otherwise she wouldn't have been a toucher very early." ”

The status of the Holy Maiden in the Church is comparable to that of the archbishop, and she has a special transcendent status.

"Isn't she now?"

Arka asked curiously.

Gami shook his head: "No, that's why I came to Captain Andrei's ship." ”

Jason also asked curiously, "Why, is there any reason for this?" ”

"I heard that she took advantage of her unpreparedness and knocked out the archbishop's teeth."

"......" the two were silent.

Gami continued with a palpitation on her face: "She came back in a rage, and she wanted to make fun of us, and she said that she was not a bullshit saint, and she was going to sea or something. ”

"And then she actually left, not to mention how happy we were at the time."

It turns out that Xia Daiti at that time was so violent?

To be honest, Arka couldn't imagine what Xia Daiti looked like at that time.

This contrast is a little too exaggerated, in her impression, Xia Daiti is a hearty, gentle appearance, and very considerate.

Very good at taking care of others.

The only thing that has to do with the word violence is the way she fights.

"The ship is coming!"
