Chapter 239: The Arsenal

All the light is absorbed.

The entire area was plunged into pure darkness.

The moment darkness fell, all the structures flying in the sky immediately froze in place, swaying from side to side in an attempt to find their target.

However, this darkness is real darkness, and even the orange-red light that emerges from the energy veins on these flying machines has been sucked out.

Plunged into absolute darkness.

The aircraft began to circle around the entire space in confusion.

And Arka, they can see it clearly.

At this time, Xia Daiti was still holding her fist gesture motionless, and she was holding the light in her hand hard to prevent it from emitting.

She enveloped the entire area and sky where everyone was fighting, and when she entered the range, some of them were beyond its limits.

I only heard the sound of breaking in the sky from time to time.

Alka and others, who can see their surroundings clearly, are still destroying the machines in the sky.

But they're trying to keep things quiet.

In addition to relying primarily on sight, making sounds can also alert these machines.

This environment made Lucilia feel like a fish in water, and she, who had reached the second stage, kept disappearing in the darkness and appeared in various places.

I only saw the machines in the sky destroying and falling.

The edge of darkness shrouded the portal, and the flying structures that were still flying out stopped around in ignorance as soon as they flew out.

There's already a bunch of them there.

"That's it!"

Simon said loudly, and then directly stretched out his right hand, and the strange treasure index finger shone brightly.

The flying structure in the sky swayed from side to side, as if it were struggling.

If it still glows, you'll notice that the orange-red light on its body is flickering.

"Permission Change, Mode Lift, Standby Status."

As the mechanical sound sounded, no one but Lucilia could understand it.

But they saw that all the flying machines were lined up in the sky under Simon's control, flying behind him.

"Whew, that's it, it's okay."

Hearing this, Xia Dai's hand loosened, and the surrounding darkness immediately disappeared.

Matresa stood up and began to check on the crowd for injuries.

Under the attack of so many tectonic flying bodies, no one was intact.

Everyone was a little embarrassed, except for the dirt all over their bodies, and there were burns everywhere.

The heat emitted by the attacks of those energy orbs was so strong that even if it wasn't hit head-on, it grazed past its side, and the heat emitted would burn the skin out of the wound.

After examining everyone's injuries, Matresa raised her hands, and a large amount of water gushed out, and then turned into droplets of water that fell on the burns on everyone's bodies.

As the water droplets poured in, a cool sensation emerged.

The burning wound faded quickly, returning to its original appearance, and only some of the burnt flesh fell down.

Fortunately, it was all skin trauma, and no one was hit head-on.

After a short rest, the group recuperated.

The surrounding area is littered with the remains of structures they have destroyed.

Simon, on the other hand, controls the flight constructs that he has changed their permissions for, flying around the skies and forming them into various queues.

"Do you see, these structures are amazing, only the size of a head. The attacks launched are so powerful, they can fly, and the energy in them is ......"

Simon kept talking, and the whole person was very excited.

"Okay friend, you're so excited, calm down, there's time for you to study in a while. The main problem now isn't this, don't you want to go inside and have a look? There may be more to it. ”

Arka came over and patted him on the shoulder, calming him down.

Hearing this, Simon nodded again and again and took a few deep breaths: "Yes, yes, I'm so excited." ”

The main thing is that the technology of these constructs is too perfect, and he is a little obsessed.

Arka looked at the still open portal.

"Is it safe in there?" He asked, turning his head.

Simon, who calmed down, nodded: "It's safe, it's a simple arsenal inside, and these flying machines are sentinels used for vigilance." ”

Hearing this, Arka looked at the crowd and said, "Then let's go in, don't all go in, and leave half of the people outside." ”

Eventually, Arka and Simon, along with Jason, Shadetti, and Lucilia, walked through the portal.

The rest of the people were on guard outside.

As a few people pass through the portal.

The gold in the overlapping space is revealed in front of everyone.

It is a simple warehouse, with all kinds of metal objects neatly placed around.

Others were very messy, as if they had been ransacked.

"This is where those planes were activated just now, isn't it?" Alka takes a look at the place next to the entrance.

There was a whole sheet of metal on the ground, with something like a snap on it, and several aircraft were still on it.

There are also some metal parts scattered on it, as well as the shell.

The space looked much larger than the temple they had entered.

After all, one is a research site, and the other is a storeroom for storage.

"Lucilia, let's see if there's any information in there."

Lucilia nodded, jumped off his shoulder, and looked around.

"Can you control that?" Arka asked, looking at Simon.

In addition to the place where the flight structure is stored at the entrance, there are also a number of other unknown metal objects stored.

Looks like it's a construct, too.

Simon went to the place where the aircraft was stored and picked up the aircraft that were still on it one by one and looked at them.

He shook his head with some regret: "No, these have long been damaged with the loss of time." ”

In other words, all the movable ones have just flown out.

Simon then looked at the constructs in front of him that had not been activated.

Several people followed.

"This big pile was supposed to be a weapon and not a construct, but it's a shame that all of them can't be used." Simon said, picking up a weapon that looked like a spear.

Jason picked one up and looked at it, "This doesn't seem like a problem, huh?" ”

Arka shook his head: "The appearance is fine, after all, the shell of this kind of thing is very hard, mainly the inside." ”

As he spoke, Arka picked up a spear and shook it.

As he shook, the sound of various parts swaying rang out from the spear.

Inside it has long been dilapidated.

"Can these materials still be used?" Xia Dai asked, after all, there are so many damaged weapons.

"These materials are not worth much, and instead of smelting them and then using them to remove impurities, it is better to spend some money on new raw materials."

Arka looked at the spear in his hand and said, he had learned some of the metal used in the spear through the effect of the spell.

Simon also sighed and said, "If you hadn't come to the Boundless Sea, these materials would definitely be pretty good, but now, they are really not worth much." ”

They didn't find nothing in the town, and as they wandered around the town, they found that a lot of metal products were made of this material.

These metal materials are all part of the exchange when the caravan arrives, and they are not expensive, and can even be called affordable.

Not to mention the materials they had gathered during their quest on the island, which were much better than the materials used in the standard weapons they had in their hands.

But it's all spell material that has been pulled from creatures.

So it's not worth wasting effort on these scraps, and their rings aren't big, they don't hold much.

"These two will work." Out of a large number of spears, Simon finally picked out two spears that were relatively well preserved.

Hand one of the roots to Alka.

Arka looked at it carefully, and the magic probed in, and it was easy to figure out its structure.

"It's a nice design, it's simple and practical."

Sighing, he picked up the spear and swung it twice, cutting off the discarded spears below very easily.

The structure inside is designed to make the spear sharper, and the main problem is that the spear doesn't use any spells, and the material cost is really low.

It can also be thrown, and the structure inside allows the spear to be more penetrating when thrown, and the flight speed and distance will be increased.

It seems to be more of a ranged weapon for throwing than melee combat.

"The race in this city-state used to be a little larger than the current human race." Simon said, looking at the spear in his hand.

In their hands they did not have spears at all, but throwing spears.

It seems that I thought of it with myself.

Further inside, there are some completely unintelligible structures, and some guns that look like rock guns.

These things have long since been scrapped over time, and there is hardly much to gain, and they simply wouldn't have lasted that long if it weren't for the sturdy materials and incantations engraved with these weapons.

The more he explored, the deeper the regret on Simon's face, so many things were discarded, which made it difficult for him to accept.

The main reason is that this relic has been around for too long.

These constructs and weapons are relatively delicate things, and such problems will occur if they are not used for a long time.

And the reason why the flying structure sentinels are still moving is because they are what they are used to keep guard. The entire arsenal has energy veins and automatic repair procedures specifically for them.

Even so, few of those aircraft were intact, most of them were in tatters, and a small number of them could not move at all.

They come to the very middle of the whole space.

There is an object covered in a metal case.

"What's in there?" Jason walked over and took a look.

"Can it be opened?" He asked, looking at Alka.

Arka nodded.

Most of the stuff was the goal of their trip.

With the metal casing being lifted.

The contents were revealed, and sure enough, there was a blue border on the outside.

The overall shape of this thing looks very much like a cannon.

The muzzle the size of a human head and the cylindrical barrel have an overall length of two meters, and the length of the base carrying the cannon sound reaches about three meters.

With a circular mount under the cannon and a place behind the cannon to hold it, it seems to be able to rotate 180 degrees, lift up, and bow down slightly.

There are a lot of angles that can be attacked.

Simon walked over step by step, his hands gently stroking the barrel, his eyes with an obsessive and gentle caress as if he was caressing his beloved.

"God, look at this material, look at the pattern carved on it." As he spoke, he let the magic in his hand pour in, probing its inner structure.

"There are so many incantations carved in it, so neatly arranged, and so intricate construction techniques used.

I have no doubt what great damage he could have done if he had fired. ”

As he spoke, he even poked his head through the muzzle of the cannon to examine its interior more closely.

"Uh...... He went crazy again. Jason said helplessly.

Alkar shrugged: "Forget it, let him watch it for a while, now go and disturb him he'll go crazy, let's go see Lucilia." ”

Since he was silently far away, he left the middle area to Simon alone.

Anyway, he is a technician on the ship, and this thing will still be handed over to him for research after all.

They found Lucilia, who was reading something in a corner on the discarded weapons.

Next to her was a metal stele with dense and illegible characters.

"How about Lucilia, did you gain anything?"

"Not much." Lucilia shook her head.

"This is just a simple weapons storehouse, except for the numbers engraved on these weapons, there is no information about the code of the weapons depot next to it and the names of the weapons."

In other words, it's useless to stay in here.

Several people returned to the center.

At this time, Simon is in slightly better shape, but he still acts very obsessed.

"Wow, what's wrong with him?" Lucilia asked in amazement.

This was the first time she had seen Simon like this.

"Uh...... Some of his little fetishes, okay. Jason said with some embarrassment.

Then he and Arka walked up and forcibly pulled Simon over.

"Calm down and think about how to get it out first."

"We can't just carry him onto the boat, he'll be seen by the townspeople, and that's not good."

Hearing this, Simon recovered a little and said, "It's okay, let's dismantle it, it's a segmented combination, it can be split into three parts, and each of us takes one part and stuffs it into the pocket ring." ”

So saying, he walked up and stroked the cannon again.

But this time he finally restrained himself.

Magic poured out from his hands, and the surface of the cannon lit up, and then the barrel detached from the middle, and part of it was taken off by Simon.

Jason quickly took it, then stuffed it into his pocket ring.

Fortunately, when they came out, they specially cleaned the pocket ring, leaving a lot of space.

Then came the back section of the cannon that he tucked into his pocket ring, and finally the base.

This is the largest part of the area.

Arka looked at his pocket ring and shook his head helplessly.

There were so many things in him that he couldn't put them in even after cleaning them up.

In the end, it was Xia Daiti who had to put the gun mount into his pocket ring.

After doing this, the group left the portal.

Standing outside the portal, Lucilia reverses the secret words she just uttered, and the portal closes immediately.

"This space is much harder than the last one." Julia said above the pit.

"Maybe it's because it's an arsenal."

Xia Daiti said about the possibility.

"Then we, do we still want to continue digging?"

"Dig, why not dig."

Arka counted the time, they were very efficient today, the daytime had only passed more than 9 hours, and it was at least half of the night.

Simon gathered the wreckage from the battlefield and dug down again.

This time they dug up the entire ruin, and Lucilia kept reading the entire ruin, trying to get some useful information.

The only pity is that there are no valuable white spots around this point.

Only a few valuable precious metal items and gems were harvested.

It wasn't until the entire ruins were excavated that Lucilia nodded and said.

"The only information I know, which is probably important, is that there is a place in the Vastva city-state dedicated to the reception of important dignitaries, called the Lookout Hall, which is also the museum of the Vastva city-state.

There may be more information about the entire city-state of Vastva, after all, it is a reception for outsiders, isn't it, and it is also a museum of urban history. ”

Alka finds this information very useful, and finding this place will definitely help them get to know the city better.

However, he only wanted the museum to have well-preserved magical objects.

Even if you don't have magic items, you have to have ordinary valuables, otherwise it will be difficult to locate them on the map.

Forget it, there may not be a few hours left until night.

Then he said: "Then let's stop here today, let's go back and sort out the harvest of this period of time, and then I will think about what to do next." ”

The crowd nodded, and began to bury the entire ruin.

After doing all this, I started to return the way I came.

"Are these constructs completely under your control?" Arka asked, looking at the Sentinel Patrol flying beside Simon.

The Sentinel Patrol Plane, the name of the structure, is recorded on the metal stele in the former arsenal.

"It's completely under my control, but there are only four of them intact, and the others all have quite a few problems."

Simon said with a little regret.

There were only four of them floating around him now, and all the other problematic ones were stuffed into his pocket rings.

There are also some who help carry them in other people's pocket rings, after all, there are quite a few problems.

But these are just problems, not that they can't be used, he just needs to study them and see if he can try to fix them.

With this chatting, the group soon returned to the town.

As soon as he entered, a human walked up, and at first glance he knew that it was following the crew of a merchant ship.

"Hello."
