In the camp under the dark night, the flame of the central furnace fire burned with firewood, emitting a crackling sound, and on the table next to the fire.

Arka and the others sat around it.

Although everyone gathered around it, the expressions of the crowd could be divided into two waves.

A wave is naturally Arka, and they are.

Arka frowned and stared at Jason, then turned to look at Lucilia who was looking up at the sky over his shoulder.

Xia Daiti and the others didn't say anything beside them, just smiled, as if they were ready to watch a play.

Arka then took out the map and spread it on the table, looking at another golden point of light that had dimmed. and a golden light that was circled and shimmered with points of light.

Look at the difficulty of that golden light.

【Kids】

"Hmmm......"

Children? Arka didn't even think that Jason would find out where the treasure was.

However, the truth is, Jason really didn't find it.

I really couldn't figure it out, so he grabbed Lucilia off his shoulder and put it in the palm of his hand.

Even when she was stared at by Arka, Lucilia tilted her head and didn't face him at all.

"Jason, if they don't find it, forget it. What about you? Didn't you make some useful comments? ”

Hearing this, Lucilia knew that she couldn't run away, sighed, turned her head back to look at Arka and said helplessly: "I mentioned it, but ...... We all turned it inside out and really didn't see anything. ”

Hearing this, Jason and the others immediately nodded: "That's right, you said that in the field, we almost plowed the field, but we didn't see anything."

I even looked around for a place where I might be hiding, but I didn't see it. ”

"Forget it, you tell me about your overall process first."

Jason nodded, and began to tell the crowd about their journey along the way.

"The area on the map, where you've marked, is a tiny wood. It's a little better than the surroundings, and it's a lot better than here.

At first, we thought it might be the grove you marked, and when we started digging there, we thought it might be a tree.

But after digging for a long time, I didn't find anything at all, and in the end I had no choice but to dig up the place one by one, but I really didn't find anything peculiar.

We began to leave the woods, to look around, and even to dig up places where something might be hidden. ”

That's why, they were much closer to the camp, but they had only arrived before Arka.

As it is said, the curtain of the sky has been torn open and it has come to daylight.

After listening to the narration, Arka also felt that there was no big problem, but why didn't he find it?

Can this difficulty still deceive people?

Child.

But any treasure of other difficulty Arka will not be as incomprehensible as it is now.

But it's useless to think about it so much.

got up and knocked on the table: "Let's go, let's go together, I want to see how deep this East XZ is." ”

After saying that, everyone ran out quickly.

Xia Daiti was also curious, because they had asked before. Arka made it clear that the treasure they were looking for was very difficult and was the real money to be found.

As a result, it's hilarious that the money is not picked up.

Pololo can be seen slapping Jason on the shoulder and smiling at him.

Although they didn't sleep all night, it wasn't an unusual thing for them to get Arka.

At this stage, even if they don't sleep for a long time, it won't be too harmful.

Sleep normally, just keep them in shape.

Soon they came to a place with a golden light on the map.

As Jason had said before, there was a grove of weeds around it, and it was clearly much better than most of the desolate wilderness.

Except for the groves, the surrounding trees are growing sporadically.

In the grove, you can also see some gray-white birds nesting on it.

On closer inspection, the birds are not aggressive, their feathers are very supple, and their bodies do not exhibit any kind of deformity. It's really strange that he hasn't been corrupted by the abyss.

Arka compared, the golden light should be in the woods.

He could also see the excavations around him, and the soft ground of the grove.

Obviously, yesterday Jason turned this place upside down, as they said, and loosened the whole forest was obviously a big job.

Arka walked in with the group.

Probably to the area where Jinguang might be.

Looking at Xia Daiti.

Xia Daiti also nodded, and the silver ripples under his feet began to penetrate deep into the earth.

"There are fewer obstacles here, and the influence of the abyssal aura is relatively weak." As soon as he probed, Xia Daiti came to a conclusion.

That's why it's at least a little better here than the rest of the place.

The silver ripples are deep and wide.

After a while, Xia Daiti opened his eyes and shook his head: "It's nothing, except for some gravel, there is nothing strange down here." ”

"Look, I'll just say it." Jason said from the side.

"Blame ......" Arka frowned, a little confused.

The main problem is that this treasure has no name, no treasure information, and it is a treasure of three nothings.

They didn't have any information about the artifact.

Arka can only guess from the location of the golden light and the difficulty of the child, this treasure should be hidden in a very shallow place. It's very easy to obtain, but something is clearly wrong now, and if there is some information about the treasure, you may be able to speculate where he is.

If it is just a child, it means that the treasure is not hidden deeply, and it is hidden in a place where only children can find it.

It is not deeply hidden, there is no danger, and it is easy to find.

Arka followed this line of thought, looking around in the forest and looking up and wandering.

Gray-and-white birds flew overhead, changing positions in the face of Arka's uninvited crowd, jumping between branches and staring at them.

Suddenly, Arka saw some of the thicker trees in the trees, with holes in them. It's small, but is it possible that these tree cavities can store small things?

And tree holes are probably what children like to explore, aren't they? Very much in line with the difficulty of children.

The more I think about it, the more likely it is.

"Look at the tree hole, did you look for the tree hole yesterday."

Hearing this, the Arka and the others looked at each other, because they really hadn't paid attention to this kind of place yesterday. Didn't even think about it at all.

But since Arka had said so, they immediately searched for some trees in the forest and looked at the hollows in them.

Not every tree has a tree hole, only a few have it, and all of them are not too small.

Most of them are just a small depression.

Tree cavities are all on the trunk of a thick tree, so it's easy to find and inspect them.

Everyone and the puppet girls just found almost all the tree holes at once, and after rummaging through them, everyone shook their heads in unison.

Arka looked at the tiny tree hole in front of him, and there was no harvest either.

"Isn't there any......"

Just leaned against the tree and meditated.

As Arka pondered, the crowd wandered through the grove and outside, looking for possible places to hide.

The girls, on the other hand, play in the woods, jumping between the numbers.

The gray birds were dumbfounded, and did not seem to be afraid of them. Even puppet girls of similar size collided with each other.

In the face of the touching of the puppet girls, they also acted a little indifferent, and even played with each other.

Suddenly, Alka, who was pondering, ducked to the side.

A cloud of bird droppings fell to where Arka had just stood.

Arka looked up at the branch, where a gray-white bird was playing with a puppet girl.

This bird is really not afraid of people.

Arka thought and withdrew his gaze.

Wait a minute......

Birds, birds......

What if I were a child, Arka couldn't help but take a few steps back and look at the trees.

The trunks of these big trees are not very tall, only about two or three meters, and the height is no more than four or five meters.

It is not a big tree, but after four or five meters, the trunk branches extend and become dense and wide.

As a result, the trunks and branches of the trees seem to be very easy to nest in, and most birds build their nests there.

What does the child like to do?

Dredging, playing in the water, climbing trees, and ...... Dig out the eggs.

Since it is not in the dirt, there is no river around it, and it is not in the hollow of a tree.

So is it possible to be in a tree? And the easiest places to hide things in the trees are these nests.

This treasure may have been a small thing, taken by a bird to build a nest, or something shiny.

Maybe these birds like to collect something shiny. You must know that there are many creatures in nature that have this strange atmosphere.

It is even possible that these birds just felt some of the breath in the treasure.

The more you think about it, the more likely it is, and Arka directly controls a mirror to lift herself up.

It was carried to a place where the nest could be seen at a glance.

The surrounding people saw Arka make a move and immediately gathered around.

"Do you think it's possible that this treasure is in the trees, in those nests?" Shadetti asked, looking at the place Arka was looking for.

At this time, Arka was looking at the branch of the large tree in front of him, where there was a bird's nest.

The bird that pooped at him just now must have lived in this nest.

However, except for some dirt and dirt, there is only a nest made of dead branches and leaves, and there is no golden border in sight.

Hearing this, Arka looked down at the people below and said, "Yes, you all see if there is anything hidden in the nests of these birds."

By the way, don't destroy other people's nests. ”

Hearing Arka's words, everyone immediately took action, and the puppet girls jumped directly over.

They didn't jump directly into someone else's nest, they just watched from the side of the nest.

Some of these birds have built their nests very safely and some deeply, and the nests are wide and thick.

Some nests also have eggs, but the nests with eggs are guarded by females, and these birds become slightly aggressive and can't get too close.

Not even doll girls of similar size.

Of course, it's just an ordinary observation, and it's enough to stand by it.

"Found it."

A sound came from a tree trunk not far away.

When they heard this, they gathered around.

A puppet girl with wings flew down.

It's Nine Seven.

She held an ordinary, round stone in both hands, with orange-orange lines on its surface.

It can be seen that the lines form a rough pattern that resembles the sun.

"Is that it?"

And in Alka's eyes, this thing really has a golden outline on the outside.

It's really in the lair.

Nodding his head, he took it from Jiuqi's hand. When the stone fell into his hand, he could clearly feel the warmth transmitted by the stone.

The feeling of warmth spread down the stone to the body, and it was no wonder that these birds were taken into their nests.

"It's really in the Bird's Nest!" Jason said helplessly.

He hadn't thought about it at all.

Simon and Lucilia next to him also showed some helplessness, they also did not expect the treasure to be carried into the bird's nest.

"Alright, the things have been found, let's go back."

With that, the crowd began to return to the camp.

Soon returned to the camp.

Holding the two treasures in his hand, Arka entered the dream.

Through the dream realm, Arka was able to see these two treasures on a deeper level.

That ordinary dagger ability and weapon seemed a little unrelated.

Competence seems to be exclusion...... Or rather, isolation.

Arka took a closer look, and it was supposed to be able to repel something, or isolate an area that only he allowed.

He couldn't fully understand all the functions of the treasure, but he probably understood the power of the treasure in this way.

The first thing that comes to mind may be that if you are in a poisonous area, you can use this treasure to isolate the poisonous gas and keep your body in a safe area.

If you think about it this way, this function can also be used underwater, isolating a waterless environment in the water.

Maybe it can also isolate sounds, isolate flames and so on, so this treasure is quite strong when you think about it.

Of course, if you think about it this way, this treasure still has a wide range of applications, but it doesn't match his current carrier short sword at all.

Maybe it's more appropriate to make a shield or something than a weapon.

And the sunstone that he just obtained, Alka is named after it. Because although the stone looks only slightly rounded and smooth, the orange pattern on it naturally forms a rough pattern that resembles the sun.

And if it is still warm to the touch, you can know that the ability of this treasure may be related to fire or temperature.

When his eyes looked closely, just as he thought, this treasure should be related to temperature, and it should be heat in temperature.

Unlike flames, flames directly create extremely hot flames to attack or shape, but if the temperature is just hot, it should be able to produce high temperatures or something.

I just don't know if this effect matches this stone.

Whether the carrier of the treasure and the divine essence in it are perfectly compatible or not, it is not very clear whether Alka is still available, and it still needs a certain amount of learning.

Find the Shadow Robe and ask him to check it out.

The first thing he looked at was the short sword, shook his head in disgust and said, "The carrier is shabby, and the meaning is unknown. ”

Obviously, this treasure belongs to the very inappropriate kind, the type that can be easily separated.

Look at another treasure of Arka, the Sun Stone.

"The carrier is not good enough...... But there is faith in this stone, and the ancient faith comes from ancient worship. The shape is somewhat suitable.

But it's a pity, the carrier really can't work, it's just an ordinary stone with a strange pattern in the material world. Even if you have faith, it's too reluctant.

When the strangeness of this stone, coupled with the worship of ancient times, if there is no divine essence, it may be a rare mysterious material. ”

To put it simply, the carriers of divine essence and treasure are excellent separately, but together they are a little unsuitable.

It's not the right one.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to separate them?"

Arka thought for a moment and nodded.

"Okay, then you can help me separate them, don't be in a hurry, you can take it slowly and experiment with it, as long as you don't destroy it."

After all, they don't lack treasure too much now.

The shadow robe nodded, showing great interest, took the two treasures and left.

Arka is back in reality.

Told everyone about the two treasures that were not suitable and were about to be separated into the essence of divinity.

Then he said to Simon, "We can start making a container for storing treasures and divine essences." ”

After all, from now on, they don't need all the Holy Grail-level treasures they have obtained, so they need a good container to store them. Especially things like divine essences, if you are not careful, they may merge with strange things in reality.

Hearing this, Simon nodded, and then thought of something and said, "But there are still some materials on the ship." ”

Hearing this, Arka muttered for a moment, and then said, "Pack up and leave, and go back to the port first." By the way, we were collecting some information in the harbor, and there were a lot of books on board, and we had to go back and find the relevant information records. ”

This includes information about Grefal's family, the Lunatic Order, and the Lighthouse.

These need to be looked for.
