"My name is Rak, and I'm an employee of the Golden Trout Chamber of Commerce, and my president would like to get to know you."

As he spoke, the man raised his head and looked at Arka with a smile and asked, "I wonder if you friends can come here with a face?" ”

Hearing this, Arka's eyes narrowed slightly.

Xia Daiti and the others next to him also set their eyes on Arka, waiting for his decision.

The only time they've ever seen this caravan is when they met last night.

At that time, Arka could clearly feel that there were two stronger people in this merchant ship team than them.

The rest of them can't give them a sense of danger.

So should you go there?

Arka couldn't help but think.

The main thing is that he doesn't understand what the purpose of the president of the Chamber of Commerce invited him, could it be that their identities have been exposed?

After all, if they could really come out of the Four Gods Sea, they would definitely have a treasure on them.

Holding a treasure with their current strength is a relatively dangerous thing in itself, and it is not safe.

But after thinking about it, if the president of the Chamber of Commerce wanted to harm them, inviting them so blatantly would startle them.

And there is no good thing for him to refuse.

Then he nodded.

"No problem, lead the way."

With that, Arka turned his head to look at his teammates.

"Let's go separately, Simon, Pololo, and Shaddai ask the three of you to come with me, and the rest of us will go back to the ship and wait."

Hearing Arka's words, everyone frowned, but they didn't refuse, just nodded and split into two teams.

Julia: They walked towards the port.

The three of Shadetti followed behind Arka.

"Then come with me, ladies and gentlemen, in this town." He deliberately mentioned the location of the invitation, so that Arka and the others could feel at ease.

If the venue for the banquet is a merchant ship, Arka may need to think a little more.

Arka and the others followed behind the member of the Chamber of Commerce named Rak in front of them.

"Did we meet yesterday?" Arka asked suddenly.

The solicitor who walked in front turned his head slightly and nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, we met at the gate of the town yesterday, and the head of the meeting was the president of our Chamber of Commerce, and it was at that time that he wanted to get to know you." ”

"Oh, that's the president of your chamber of commerce." Arka looked like he had come to his senses.

He was somewhat sure that the merchant captain might have seen something he cared about when he met them.

Then he asked: "It is indeed a man of extraordinary bearing, is the ship parked at the port the merchant ship of your Chamber of Commerce?" ”

Lark nodded.

"Yes, the Golden Trout is the merchant ship of our Chamber of Commerce, and it is also the office of our Chamber of Commerce, mainly for merchants in the Broken Island Chain here."

Broken island chains......

Arka had never heard of the term, nor had he known its meaning from the dreams of these people.

But we'll find out tonight.

Or do I know too little about some common sense of the whole Infinite Sea.

There's no way, it's hard to get information in a dream that you don't know at all.

After all, if you ask too generally, the people in the dream won't answer you, and you'll have to ask very carefully.

In the middle of the chat, the group had arrived at a triangular house that covered a large area.

"Come on, please come in."

At the door of the house, there are two guards in soft armor standing on both sides, and you can tell by the race that they are not residents of the island.

It's ordinary human beings.

Pushed the door open and walked in.

When you come in, you find that this place is out of place with the whole town, and it is too bright inside.

The lighting used in the town is a candle made of some kind of fish oil, which is very flame-resistant, but the fire that burns is not very bright.

The lighting tools used in this room are crystal balls floating in the air, much like lighting stones that were used a long time ago.

However, the glow emitted has a hint of warmth, which makes the whole room seem a little warm.

A long table was placed in the middle of the room, and the captain he had seen before sat on it, smiling at the arrival of Arka.

The long table was long enough to hold a dozen people, and it was filled with cutlery.

"You may be seated, gentlemen, and I hope you don't blame me for my hasty invitation, but I'm glad you accepted it."

Seeing the Chamber of Commerce president come over and say something with a smile, Arka nodded, also showing a polite smile.

Although it was indeed a bit sudden, whether it was the process of the invitation or his current performance, it gave Arka enough respect and politeness.

After all, Arka knew the strength of the person in front of him, and he must have reached the third stage.

It's much better than them.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce walked over and saluted Arka with his hands crossed in his arms.

When he saw this posture, Arka was slightly stunned, but he immediately reacted, and also crossed his hands.

The same is true for Shadetti behind him, but Borolo and Simon use different ceremonial gestures.

"My name is Balazs, Balazs, the president of the Golden Trout Chamber of Commerce, and it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Arka, the leader of the Compass Pupil Treasure Hunt, they are my team."

“……”

Xia Daiti and others behind him also introduced themselves.

"Haha, please sit down, standing like this, it really makes me feel too rude." The president of the Chamber of Commerce said with a smile.

The Arka people also smiled and nodded, and sat down in their seats.

I even saw a stool specially prepared for Bororo's huge size.

After taking a seat, he clapped his hands gently, and one after another someone put a variety of delicacies on the table.

A member of the Chamber of Commerce picked up a jug of wine from the side and poured a glass for everyone present.

"Please use it, everyone, these are unique delicacies made with the ingredients of the demonic beasts on this island, and they are not easy to eat outside."

Balazs said with a smile, and then directly cut a random piece of meat on the leg of the largest unknown beast in the center and put it on his plate, cutting off a small piece and stuffing it into his mouth.

After eating, he took a sip of the wine in the wine glass next to him.

Seeing this, the Arka people began to taste it.

"I wonder why President Balazs invited us here?"

Arka asked directly after taking a bite.

Hearing this, Balaz smiled and said, "Of course, I want to get to know you and make a friend, and being the president of the Chamber of Commerce is a very important resource." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly changed his words: "Of course, it is also a small piece of advice to friends." ”

"Advice......" Arka narrowed his eyes slightly, at the stage of acquaintance, this is not a good word.

"Don't get me wrong, if I'm not mistaken, you should have just arrived in the Infinite Sea."

As the words fell, the atmosphere in the entire restaurant became quiet.

All that remains is the sound of Bororo chewing.

Arka and the others didn't react to these words, and still ate the food in their hands.

After chewing the food, Arka chuckled and asked, "Why does President Balazs think this way?" ”

The chairman who was sitting opposite shook his head and smiled, "When you first arrived in the Boundless Sea, you may not know the situation here, although it is true that you can't see it on the outside, but there are some characteristics that only people who have just arrived in the Boundless Sea's Four Gods Sea have it. ”

"And just that, you have this trait, which is very bad and dangerous, so I hope you will forgive me for my sudden offense."

Since everyone is saying it so bluntly, Arka has nothing to pretend about.

He asked directly, "What kind of characteristics?" ”

"You're all still in the second stage, but the magic reaction is too smooth, which is too abnormal."

Balazs did not skimp and spoke directly.

"That's it?" Arka didn't expect that it was nothing else that exposed them, but that the magic was too smooth.

"Haha, my friend, a lot of things are exposed from this little thing." Balazs said with a smile.

Then he explained: "Although I don't know what the Four Gods Sea is like, I heard that it is very calm and peaceful, and it is very desirable. ”

"So I admire the adventurous spirit of yours who are willing to come from a peaceful place to this dangerous boundless sea, and it is precisely for this reason that your magic is too smooth."

"For people who live and grow up in the Boundless Sea, the first two stages are the stages when their strength improves the fastest. The strength is not growing all the time, there is no time for them to be able to stabilize their magic, and only when they reach the limit can they have the opportunity to turn back and start combing. ”

No wonder.

Hearing this, Arka suddenly brightened, and he couldn't help but think of their experience in the town during this time.

The strength displayed by the hunters in the town who were the ones who touched them was too easy to be noticed.

Arka always thought that his strength had become more acute after he had improved, after all, it was not so easy to detect the strength of others when he was in the homeland sea, but at that time, Arka was only at a stage.

As a result, I didn't expect it to be because the magic power of the people of the Boundless Sea was too boiling and obvious in the early stage.

I can't help but think of the mayor who had a relationship with each other and the balazs in front of him.

When he saw them, Arka couldn't feel the fluctuations in their mana.

It's just through the Dream Catchers that I feel that trace of danger on their bodies, letting Arka know that their strength must be much more than their own, and they should be in the third stage.

Thinking of this, Arka humbly asked, "Then how can we conceal such movements?" ”

Hearing this, Balazs shook his head with some regret and said, "Friend, forgive me for being lonely, I don't know what to do for the time being. After all, this is the influence of the environment in which you were born and raised, and it is not so easy to change.

But when your strength reaches the Nine Spirals, there is no need to cover up such appearances. ”

The implication is that the nine spirals, that is, the consummation of the second stage, are almost a watershed.

Once here, even those who grew up in the Infinite Sea will begin to tease their magic and bring him to peace.

Speaking of this, Balazs suddenly chuckled and said, "Actually, I can find that there are too many of you, and everyone's magic is very stable, which is too strange." ”

After all, it's normal to find one or two, there are always such cases, but a large number of cases gathered together are too conspicuous, and people can't help but think of other directions.

"So, my friend, I suggest you stay a little longer on this island, which is often visited by outsiders, but only very often. As long as you don't take active action, it won't be easy to be discovered, and it's not too late to leave when you can let your strength grow to the Nine Spirals. ”

At this point, Balazs's expression became unusually serious.

"I admire you for coming to the Infinite Sea, but here...... It's not as good as you think. ”

He shook his head helplessly.

Arka nodded, he would seriously consider this proposal, after all, safety is paramount.

Looking at Balazs, he sincerely thanked him: "Thank you, thank you very much for helping your friend." ”

"Haha, that's too polite, after all, I'm also selfish, to be honest, you're still the first person I saw from the Four Gods Sea."

"Are there very few people from the Four Gods Sea?"

"Of course there is too little, for the endless sea of this boundless sea, there are too few, but there are many famous people."

"Someone famous?"

"Of course, the Great Treasure Thief - Salmoros, the Wave of Conquest - Levis, the Flesh Calamity - Barrow, etc., these are all people with a great reputation in the Infinite Sea, and they are all from the Sea of the Four Gods."

"Salmoro ......" heard the soft murmur of Xia Daiti next to him.

Arka turned to look at him and asked, "You know this person?" ”

Hearing this question, Balaz's eyes lit up on the other side, and his face was full of curiosity.

Not only him, but the surrounding chamber crew also pricked up their ears to listen.

For them, this is an unattainable legend, belonging to a legendary person.

Xia Daiti nodded, raised his voice slightly, and said, "I have seen him in the records of the church, and he probably left the homeland sea 280 years ago. He was recorded because he stole the church's stuff and was chased by the church's pursuers in a panic and ran to the open gate. ”

Hearing this gossip, the members of the Chamber of Commerce around them all nodded knowingly.

Balazs also looked suddenly enlightened, and said: "No wonder his relationship with the church is so bad, until now I can hear that he went to some churches of the church to steal...... Well, take something. ”

He really didn't expect that there would be such a relationship, and this well-known figure was still so embarrassed.

It gives the illusion that the legendary characters are closer to them.

"Speaking of which, I've heard this Barrow before." Simon said from the side.

When these words fell, everyone's expressions became a little surprised.

I didn't expect to hear the origins of the two legends here.

"He is an affinity among the judges, who does not conform to the ideals of the church, but still believes in the wise.

What led him to leave the church was his flesh-and-blood research. His most exaggerated incident at the time was that he attached flesh to a house, turning it into a living monster. It was because of this that he was judged by the church and then fled. ”

Is it just not in line with the philosophy of the church? I still believe in the wise.

So what the hell is going on in your oceans?

Arka couldn't help but complain.

Attaching flesh and blood to the house or something, it sounds like it makes people's scalps tingle.

And Balazs, who was on the other side, heard this deed, his eyes lit up, and he said with a earned expression: "Is there another such story?" Now Barrow is a very well-known pagan leader of the Holy Machine Church, I remember it was called the 'Jade Ruby' Order. ”

"The heretic order of the Church of the Holy Machine?" Simon repetitively didn't understand, he didn't know that the Holy Machine Church had such an organization.

Unless as a member of the Holy Machine Church, he still has secrets that he doesn't know. But looking at Balazs, it's not a secret.

"That's right, the Holy Machine Church has many heretical groups that belong to it, that is, the orders that do not match the concept, but still believe in the wise man, and they are also part of the Holy Machine Church." Balazs gave the crowd a science lecture.

"Can it be like this?"

Simon's whole body was shocked, he didn't expect that when he arrived in the Infinite Sea, the church he was in had become so open?

After coming back to his senses, he hurriedly asked, "What about those pagans who don't believe in wise men?" ”

"I haven't heard of it, but there are many evil orders and organizations that do often launch various actions and wars against the Holy Machine Church. Of course, they weren't just targeting the Church of the Holy Machine. At this, Balazs's brow furrowed with disgust, and he could even see a hint of hatred in the depths of his eyes.

Hearing this, Simon nodded knowingly.

That's good, at least he can accept this situation now, and it won't collapse his worldview.

Heresy or something.
