After nearly 40 days and nights of sailing.

They were finally on the verge of reaching their destination, and the voyage didn't even allow them to encounter a single island.

However, Arka did find some gathering places with many dream bubbles in his dreams.

But he didn't turn his head away.

After all, there is already a goal.

Arka stood in the lookout room, looking through the glass at the black dot on the edge of the field of vision, which was their destination.

With a faint golden glow in his eyes, Arka's vision intensified and he looked into the distance.

No ships were seen around the island, and it seemed that the island was fairly safe.

There were no reefs to be seen, and the sea was calm.

And the island isn't too big, at least not so much that you can't see the border.

From a distance, you can see that there seems to be a circular building rising into the sky on the island.

As you get closer and closer.

A towering stone tower towers over the island.

There are various stones floating around the stone tower, which seem to be absorbed by the stone tower, spiraling around it.

The stone tower is surrounded by a variety of dilapidated buildings, but there are also some houses that appear to be relatively intact.

As we get closer, the view is completely obscured.

It seems that there is some kind of building, and it is fenced off, and it is not known whether it is the hillside or the original cliff of the island.

Arka stepped out of the observation room.

"How?"

"I don't see any other ships around the island yet, but let's take a look."

With that, the sound of dawn began to sail around the island.

Observe the situation on the island.

By the way, you can also estimate the size of the island.

It didn't take long.

They had already sailed around and had a rough idea of what was going on on the island.

Most of the island's buildings seem to be of the very grand type.

It gives a sense of majestic atmosphere.

"The concentration of magic on this island is too high, if you want to go to the island, be mentally prepared, everything here can be activated under the high concentration of magic."

Julia said from the side.

"Activation? What do you mean? Jason asked curiously.

"Activation is an inanimate substance that has been transformed into a magical creature by a high concentration of magical power.

They still have no souls, but they have some instinctive consciousness under the influence of magic, and they have some special abilities. ”

Julia explained, as if afraid that Jason wouldn't understand, thought for a moment and added, "You can think of it as the most primitive elemental-like creature." ”

As soon as he said this, everyone understood.

Elemental beings are pure material creatures that are immune to attacks by spirits and souls.

It is usually only possible in an environment that is filled with a single mana attribute.

Here are some of the things that Arka knows in the dream world.

After sailing around, the ship stopped at a port where it was easy to land.

Standing on the boat, Arka began to tell the crowd some of the brief information he knew about the island from Mirmi's memories.

"I don't know what the name of this island is, but I know about the existence of this island from some memory information."

"This island is once used for trials, so be careful, even if it is abandoned and collapsed, some things will still be there."

Saying this, everyone couldn't help but think of Vastva.

In the time of the gods, it could only be regarded as a small city-state that lived in the corner.

But many creations are still alive and can even be reactivated by the stimulation of language.

You can see how exaggerated the technical capabilities of that era were.

Not to mention that this place can be understood from Mirmi's information, but the gods are involved in its construction.

There are clear traces of God's creation.

As for what the traces of God's creation, Arka didn't know.

"So where do we park the boat?" Natsuyo asked.

Arka thought for a moment and said, "Stop in the depression we just saw, and disguise it." ”

After all, they don't know much about the island, and they don't know if it's dangerous, so it's better to be cautious.

The Sound of Dawn then sailed into a hollow they had seen earlier, and slowly docked inside.

A mirror-like liquid appeared in Arka's hand and began to draw on the surrounding cliffs.

As it was drawn, it turned into a mirror-like incantation, instantly hiding the area.

Arka stood on the deck.

"What are you thinking?" Xia Daiti looked at Arka stunned in place and asked suspiciously.

"Wait, I have a new idea, let's try it out."

Arka said, and the mirror appeared on his face. A large mirror 3 meters wide and 6 meters high appeared on the deck.

The Dream Catcher emerged, and a small round mirror appeared next to him again.

The scenery revealed in the small garden is in a dream.

The pink magic mixed with the gold and silver magic that flew out of the small round mirror began to draw on the mirror.

Dense incantations are carved on the mirror.

It may seem complicated to look at, but if you look closely, you can see that most of the spells are repeated.

With the engraving, Arca depicts the icon of the compass pupil on the center of the engraving.

With the last stroke falling.

The whole mirror glowed with a different color, and the structure of the mirror became a little hazy like a fog in a dream.

Looking at the structure of the mirror, a smile appeared on Arka's face.

"What is this?"

Hearing everyone's questions, Arka turned his head and smiled at what he introduced to them.

"The mirror of dreams travels, and then I will be able to make another mirror in situ. Then quickly return to the ship through the mirror to avoid the same danger as before. ”

"Portals?" Simon said, looking at the mirror.

This thing sounds exactly like a portal.

"That's right, that's understandable."

This was achieved by a special means of Arka, born out of the previous Walking Mirror.

Previously, it was only possible to travel very short distances, which was used to improve the weirdness and flexibility in combat.

But since Arka has a trace of the blood of the god of dreams, and the kingship in the dream, he is able to use this special structure to make his own ideas.

Use a large number of spells, mix your own power, and add the magic of gold and silver, so that you can temporarily create a weak point to the dream realm.

Take your own mirror as a carrier.

And because of Arka's right to be the king of dreams, it is directly connected to his palace.

When not in use, the energy is not emitted, and Arka only needs to solidify the mirror itself.

Such a large-scale long-distance crossing consumes too much mana, and it can almost be called a one-off.

After all, gold and silver energy is not easy to obtain.

Then Alka can open another mirror anytime and anywhere, and use his dream palace as a transit station for one-time long-distance teleportation.

It's said to be a long distance, but obviously the distance can't be stretched too far.

But that's more than enough for the island.

He himself was prepared to quickly return the ship from the island in order to escape.

There is another means of quick escape.

"Not bad idea, use dreams as a transit ......." Simon nodded in interest.

After all, real teleportation is carried out with space as an anchor.

But this is clearly not what they can do now.

After the mirror was placed, some puppet girls were arranged to guard it.

Everyone boarded the long-lost Feiyan, and this time except for a puppet girl made of a few people's hair, the rest of the captain and team members were all left on the ship.

The island was too unknown and dangerous for them to operate.

And it's an island of trials.

If you touch some of the trials, too many people may make it more difficult.

At least that's how Arka understands it.

Riding the Swift, he came to the abandoned harbor and landed ashore.

The Swift was dragged ashore and hidden.

The crowd looked at the situation around them.

"This place must have been visited, and there are traces of almost every time period." Jason said, looking at some of the traces around him.

First of all, there are all kinds of remnants, as well as some obvious old and new rubbish and traces of camping.

"The concentration of mana is really high." Arka felt the concentration of magic around him and couldn't help but say.

The island's mana concentration enters the body with breathing.

With every breath, you can feel the magic entering your body, which can even make your throat and nasal passages feel a tingle.

Xia Daiti walked ahead, leading the way for everyone, it was still the old rule, and she would explore the island.

Silver ripples kept moving from under her feet to the surroundings.

As soon as he used it, Xia Daiti frowned: "The concentration of mana is too high, even the soil is rich in mana, which completely blocks the transmission of my silver ripples." ”

"So no?" Alka asked.

Xia Daiti shook his head, and a halo of light appeared on his head.

Then the silver ripples swelled and forcibly spread out towards the surroundings.

"The ability to probe to great depths has been weakened, but a simple survey of the terrain on the surface is fine."

"Then go ahead, mainly for the sake of mapping. Hidden spaces below, or where there are holes, will come later. Arka said.

After all, as long as the complete map of the island comes out, it is natural to know where the treasure is hidden, and whether it is hidden under the ground, and then you will know.

Xia Daiti nodded and led everyone to move forward.

There are a number of buildings in the harbor, which have spread all the way, but most of these buildings are completely dilapidated, and because they are located on the seashore, they have long since decayed and become a little black because of the blowing of the sea breeze.

You can also see a lot of shipwrecks being pushed by the waves and piled up here.

"Be careful, there's something coming." Julia said.

A creaking sound rang out from the wreckage pile.

Strange creatures of old tattered clothes, seaweed, and a variety of rusted weapons crouched on the ground, writhing crookedly towards Arka.

The tattered weapons wrapped around them were aimed at them, as if intending to attack them.

With a buzzing sound.

Two Sentinel Flying Machines flew directly past Simon's side, attacking the strange creatures.

The red light flashes.

The beam hits the monster directly.

The high-energy attack pierces it and ignites the already dried seaweed and clothing on its body.

There was a smell of turbidity and a hint of foul odor.

The monsters that were hit didn't seem to be completely dead, coming together in the flames and turning into a larger creature.

"They are constructed from a high concentration of mana, and should have a presence similar to that of an energy core.

Break or block the transmission of energy between them to destroy them. ”

Julia watched carefully from the side and came to a conclusion.

Hearing this, Simon nodded.

Two more Sentinel Aircraft flew over.

The two seem to have different functions, with a ring of crystal-like things in front of them.

Began to probe around the giant monster.

It seems to have scanned the location of the core.

The two Sentinel Aircraft attacked immediately, this time using bullets instead of beams.

With a dull thud, bullets fired.

Instantly penetrated the monster's body, the body made of the remains of various cloth plants was too fragile and almost completely defenseless.

The clicking sound was clearly heard.

As if collapsing, the monster quickly collapsed into a mass.

Then the people went up.

Simon condensed an iron rod in his hand and planed it.

A strange core inside was revealed, still shimmering slightly.

The core object is actually a broken skull?

It's just that the skull has long since become jet black and shiny, and you can even see the crystal texture inside it through the surface.

Matresa leaned down and picked up the skull with her hands, not disgusted at all.

Look at the skull and look at it carefully.

"This is supposed to be the skull of a toucher, the death has nothing to do with the brain injury, the damage is an acquired cause.

The strength should be good before death, and the treasures that may be used, or spells, are related to the brain and spirit. ”

"After dying in such a high-magic environment, the head absorbed magic and changed its texture."

As he spoke, he handed the skull directly to Arka.

"A good biomaterial, if you don't dislike it, you can still use it."

Alka took it and looked at it, not disgusted at all, and threw it to Simon.

This kind of high-energy object is generally what Simon needs, after all, his constructs need energy to drive.

If he was driven by his magic alone, it would be a little too difficult for him.

After a hiccup, the group skipped past some of the buildings in front of them and walked towards the interior of the island through the central avenue.

The island has a peculiar structure, and it is surrounded by a ring of towering cliffs, the only entry into which is the building area in front of the port.

There is a gap, similar to a gate, that allows access to the interior.

The majestic gate had completely collapsed and broken, leaving only two stone pillars, one short and one long, still in place, and full of windswept marks.

A few people had just stood at the door.

A set of broken stone armor was formed by condensing the surrounding rubble.

The height of the gathered armor was five or six meters, and a giant hammer formed by a boulder floated in front of him, as if it was held by an invisible hand.

It looks like it's another creature formed by a high devil.

"Be careful, his energy response is relatively strong, and the stones gathered on his body also have some spells and magic drawn on them." Simon's sentry in the manipulator's hand probed beside him.

However, the powerstone armor that looked broken had no intention of attacking them, and just floated quietly beside it.

It's like the gate once guarded.

"Doesn't he attack?"

"Maybe we didn't attack? Not all mana-infected creatures are aggressive. ”

Several people slowly moved two steps to the side.

There was still no attack.

Slowly moved to the position of the gate, until the crowd skipped the gate.

The pile of stones gathered and the armor that floated in the air collapsed, and it was once again piled up in the pile below, as if it had never condensed.

"So what does it mean that he condenses?" Jason had some puzzled questions.

If you don't want to attack, it's good not to show up at first, isn't it because of curiosity?

Arka shrugged his shoulders and shook his head: "Who knows, maybe his duty is to guard the gate, and if anyone wants to pass by, they have to observe." ”

If you pass through the gate, you will be able to see the inside.

Large areas of ruins, as well as some former buildings, remain.

The huge tower in the center is so conspicuous.

In particular, the rubble floating around the tower looks extraordinary.

In addition to this, there are many huge stones floating in front of the ruins of the entire building.

These stones seem to form an empty island, but they are not high from the ruins, the short ones only float two or three meters, and the high ones float more than ten meters.

"A new trialist is coming?"

"It's really rare to have the blood of gods in such a broken era."

"So, young people, are you going to participate in the trial?"
