Chapter 523: Black Steel Island

After listening to Bishop Saflev's brief briefing.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but ponder.

Whether it's Arka or the Secret Spell Council that has just arrived here, they need to think and filter it in their minds based on the information they know now.

After a short pause, Safraf continued: "In addition to this main signpost island, there are also bloody disasters like this on the other linked islands to which it is linked.

It's just that these disasters are significantly inferior compared to Signpost Island, but the problem is that even on other islands, there are fewer forces to resist. ”

As he spoke, he took a report from a scholar next to him.

"There are 6 islands in the Behman Island chain, and 4 of the 6 islands linked to this link are now the same as Bremman, which have become a lair of flesh and blood.

As for the remaining two, it is because there are personnel on the island who are on a mission to wipe out the flesh and blood, so these two islands are the only safe islands in this sea area right now. ”

As he spoke, he turned to look at Arka and said, "The island where the Tower of Trials you need is located is not a linked island, but it happens to be in the waters of the island chain, and it has also been invaded. ”

Hearing this, Arka nodded.

He had seen it in the revelation before, and since he knew that the revelation was about their goal, he was mentally prepared, so it was not surprising.

"Now that you've cleared the flesh and blood disasters on those two islands, have you figured out where the power of such a disaster comes from?"

Speaker Anreis asked from the side.

This is a very important question.

If he asks other members of the force, he may not be able to find out, but he is asking about the Holy Machine Church, and there are many scholars in the church.

Now that they've cleaned up the two islands, it's likely that they already have some understanding of the source of the flesh problem.

Safraf shook his head and said regretfully: "That's the problem, if we know where the problem comes from, it would be great."

The outbreak was too sudden, and we lost so many members that a lot of energy was spent dealing with these flesh monsters.

The Flesh Plague on those two islands was cleared because they didn't break out completely. One of them had already been cleared at the time of the outbreak, affecting a small area, even a single residential building.

Another flesh and blood outbreak disaster, I don't know why, maybe it was a lack of energy, or maybe the location of the outbreak on the island was not in the right place, it just spread, and it died out on its own after a while. ”

Hearing this, everyone probably understood.

In other words, the clearing of these two erupting islands was somewhat of an accident.

"But the only thing we know now is that the source of the flesh outbreak is the ritual that was actually caused by the cultists themselves.

That is to say, problems arise in their own flesh and soul.

I don't know about the other islands, but the source of the outbreak on these two islands was achieved by a group of 6 cultists who sacrificed themselves.

And according to the investigation, the strength of each cultist was consummated in the third stage, reaching the peak of normal touchers. ”

After listening to the words of Bishop Safnov.

Once again, the scene fell silent.

People are starting to think again in the light of the more information they have obtained.

"When I first came, I took a look to see if this island of flesh was ...... On the move? Speaker Anreis frowned and asked with some solemnity.

Safnov nodded: "That's right, this is the most serious problem, especially at this time. ”

Hearing Saflev's exact answer, the Speaker Anrith leaned heavily on the back of his chair and reached out to rub his brow, obviously the problem caused by this news was very serious.

Hearing this, Arka couldn't help frowning and began to think deeply.

Will the island movement pose any serious problems?

Wrong...... It's not the island movement, but the signpost island movement that poses a huge problem.

Although they don't know exactly about Arka, they know that each signpost island and its chain of islands are very important for the entire Infinite Sea.

Because this is not only about yourself, but also about the entire infinite sea, and even the dream realm is cooperating to a certain extent.

Although the Boundless Sea is very chaotic at this stage, at least there is a certain stability and order in the chaos. And this stability and order is brought about by these signpost islands and their island chains.

That's what Arka learned.

But what exactly is the mystery of it, Arka has not delved into it, nor has it been specifically understood and inquired.

So I couldn't help but ask curiously.

"So the movement of the island will cause any serious problems with the functionality of the signpost island itself?"

Hearing Arka's question, Anreis and Saflev glanced up at him.

There was some doubt in his eyes, because he was probably surprised that Arka was not clear.

Seeing this, Arka explained a little: "I probably know the importance of Signpost Island, but I don't know how it works and how it works. ”

Hearing this, Safraf nodded, the members of this meeting were all trustworthy and important members, so he didn't hide it and said directly: "The system formed by Signpost Island and its island chain was built by the four gods.

And such an idea comes from My Holy One. ”

"You should know that above the sixth stage, which is the so-called demigod stage, you need to spread your reputation, right?"

Arka nodded, he did know, after all, their fame had spread.

"The principle is similar to this, the Infinite Sea itself is a broken and weak world. The strong people of the sixth stage take themselves as their origin, and divide the invisible chains that link the lives of those who have heard of your fame and have developed various positive emotions such as admiration and admiration for you, and even respect.

These emotions will allow you to link him or even drag him down, so that you will not be dragged out of the world when unexpected situations arise. ”

Alka also knew the principle and nodded.

Even if you don't link, normal people won't have any big problems. But in general, it is better for the whole group of beings to link and more stabilize their problems.

For example, it is not easy to have the separation of spirit and flesh, or fall into a dream, or be violated by some kind of spiritual level by someone outside the star.

To put it simply, they use their strength to form a relatively abstract protection on the human spiritual level.

"Signpost Island and its linked islands are similar in that they connect the surrounding islands with Signpost Island as the origin point, and then stabilize a large area centered on Signpost Island.

After all, the whole world is put together, so it is fragile. The presence of the signpost island is like a chain in the middle of a splicing, pulling the surrounding fragments. ”

"According to such a system, the signpost islands do not move, and the linked islands are like being pulled by chains, although they will float out with the flow, they will also be pulled back.

If the signpost islands are all moved, there is a problem with its origin properties. Then the entire sea area that is firmly connected by it will be chaotic.

It's like a wound that has been sewn up by a thread, and now that a rope is broken, there will inevitably be problems. ”

A simple explanation.

Arka and the others nodded understandingly.

"Excuse me? How chaotic will he be? Simon asked.

Safrav nodded and replied directly: "Chaotic to the point of world scars, so chaotic that if the abyss is willing to spend a certain amount of strength, it can even open another entrance to the abyss here."

However, this also requires a process, so it is usually not that serious, but it will bury an opportunity and an introduction.

It is as fragile as if there is no barrier and order, only chaos, and there will be a certain disruption of time and space. ”

Hearing this, everyone had an intuitive concept in their hearts.

Arka involuntarily linked the problem here to the demon.

After all, the timing of the problem was too coincidental.

It's hard not to wonder if this is the work of demons, as it makes it easier for them to invade the world and even open a second battlefield.

For the demons, what stopped them was that the entrance was too small, not that there were not enough of them.

If the entrance was a little bigger or a little more, the world would have been beaten into a sieve long ago.

As for whether the people of the Boundless Sea still have the strength to defend the second battlefield, it is unknown.

But in any case, the demon's advantage will be greatly enhanced.

"So the question here really doesn't have anything to do with demons?" Jason couldn't help but ask.

The main thing is that it's too much of a coincidence, and if you think about it a little, you can feel that it seems that all the spearheads are pointed at the devil.

There is no need to be suspicious, after all, they are the biggest vested interests.

Instead, Saflev shook his head.

"At least for now, although the demons have benefited greatly, it is true that the problem caused by the demons has not been found.

Since the news spread from the Boundless Sea, all of the signpost islands have strengthened their protection against the abyssal aura and anything related to demons. ”

"We have also analyzed the flesh and breath of those cultists, and the evil gods they believe in have little to do with demons.

If you insist on having something to do with the demon, it is very likely that the evil god and the demon have made a deal, which is a more likely situation.

But at least the demons weren't directly involved. ”

Then the crowd exchanged some more.

Speaker Anreis on the other side thought for a while and said, "If you want to solve the problem here, you have to find the problem, which island is more suitable for investigation?"

We need to see with our own eyes and understand how these flesh and blood are constituted in order to find a solution. ”

Saflev nodded, he had already prepared, and then took out the link map.

He pointed to one of them, and said at the origin of the direction that was drawn on the line.

"Black Steel Island, this island has been invaded by flesh and blood, and it is relatively close to here. The problems on the islands are serious, but they are not too dangerous, at least not to the extent of danger to all of you.

It is more in line with the place where everyone here is investigating and looking for problems, and at the same time, the Holy Machine Church also has an investigation team on it. ”

Hearing this, Anreth nodded.

"That's it, and we'll set sail."

Hearing this, Arka turned his head to look at the people around him, and everyone nodded, probably able to understand what Arka meant.

"Then let's take a look."

Saflev had no opinion on this and nodded.

Finally, he said, "Based on what we've been studying now." In an optimistic scenario, we must find a solution within 50 days and settle the flesh and blood on the island of Beverman.

If the island moves faster than we'd like, there's a good chance it's going to be even shorter. ”

Both nodded.

I probably have some numbers in mind.

Then they left the conference room.

Back to the Sound of Dawn.

Seeing that the magic sailboat of the Spell Council was moving in front of them, Arka and the others slowly followed behind them.

And everyone gathered in the conference room.

"What do you think, should we stay and solve the problem, or should we just go and forcibly take the Tower of Trials away?" Alka asked.

I don't know what the situation of the Isle of Trials is here, but based on the fortitude of the Tower of Trials, it should be well preserved.

Because he had just simply entered the small world, entered one of the towers of trials, and asked about the situation.

Although the instructors and the people of the Temple of Trials didn't know what was going on outside the Tower of Trials, at least there was nothing wrong with the Tower of Trials in their tests.

This means that they can forcibly remove the Tower of Trials, as long as they can withstand the onslaught of the flesh on the island.

"I'm more inclined to solve the problem here, it's obviously a premeditated operation, and finding out what the problem is, is the fundamental." Simon said.

Julia and the others nodded.

They had close to two months anyway.

Although they are pressed for time, the problems here will be even worse if they fully erupt.

Hearing their discussion, Arka nodded.

"Then let's find a way to solve the problem here as soon as possible."

Now that I think about it, it's a big problem.

The entire Boundless Sea can be said to be in chaos

The journey to Blacksteel Island from where they are is is not far.

It was only about a day or so.

Soon they saw the Black Steel Island.

The crowd watched from the deck.

Both they and the members of the Spell Council were observing the perimeter of the island, and a steel ship could be seen outside the island at a relatively safe distance.

At that time, the ship should be the so-called investigation team.

After going around, the only thing I found was that although the island was covered in flesh and blood, there were still many buildings on the island that could be clearly seen.

It was once supposed to be an island of mining and steelmaking, with factories in sight.

Flesh has occupied about half of the island, and no signs of further spread have been found.

The other half of the area can be seen with a large number of flesh creatures roaming in a hobbling manner.

After a quick walk, the two ships stopped next to the steel ship.

The steel ship also seems to have gotten the news.

A middle-aged man with a power sword like a chainsaw on his back.

It can be seen that there are some uncleaned blood stains and shredded flesh wrapped around it.

He was also surrounded by a group of Power Riders.

Similar to the Wheat Ears of the Church, it belongs to the armed forces of the Holy Machine Church.

Wearing steel outer armor.

"Welcome to everyone, if there is anything we need to know, if we know, we know everything."

Anreth nodded and asked directly, "Do you know anything about these flesh and blood in the morning?" ”

"The characteristics of these flesh and blood are the same as those of White Man Island, but they only spread to half of the area, and they have remained like this for more than half a month, and they have not continued to spread.

We suspect that there may be not enough energy or flesh, and these flesh and blood cannot increase in value indefinitely, and there must be some conditions to continue to expand and cover.

As for the twisted monsters, it felt like all living creatures were flesh and blood spliced together at random, without a soul, like a complete puppet shell.

These flesh and blood are extremely aggressive, and we can't get close to them at all, so we can only learn about these situations. ”

Hearing this, Anris nodded, and then looked at Arka and them next to him.

"Would you like to go to the island and check it out?"

Arka nodded.

Later, under the leadership of the research team, they arrived at the login location that the team had been using until now.

You can see that it's kind of like a defensive position.

All sorts of horse bars, fences, and rudimentary defenses.

Although it was rudimentary, it did clear a relatively safe area.

The ship docked, and everyone jumped onto the edge of the island.

Not far away, you could see the various flesh and blood husks that were moving slowly, and they didn't seem to be ready to attack.

"They have a certain range of attacks, probably around them, about 500 meters or so, if they perceive it, they will attack.

And if one senses it, then the flesh monsters in a large area around him will sense it.

In other words, once one of them is disturbed, it will attract a large number of attacks, which will be difficult to deal with. ”

The captain said. (End of chapter)
