A fearful thought welled up in my heart.

"I ...... Was you "lucky" to be thrown by the waves onto an island in the undead sea? ”

It was nothing short of unlucky, worse than any previous trip.

Keretor was not interested in the treasures of the undead sea, but fate chose him and used the waves to throw him here.

Thousands of adventurers and sailors who were keen to find treasure have spent their entire lives at sea without discovering anything.

The plants that grow on the island are very strange. No matter what type of plant, whether it is roots, stems, leaves, or flowers, they all take on a grayish-black color and exude a strong magical breath. It's the only living thing on the island.

Of course, this is without counting the various types of undead who roam in every corner of the island and have translucent bodies......

However, it seems that because Kereser is protected by Belgaredgar, who carries the Divine Breath, these souls do not dare to approach.

"I ...... Did I come to the island of the undead in the Sea of the Undead? ”

It's not an undead, it's just some translucent monsters...... Keresse judged.

Although the "undead" did not dare to approach Kerese, the scenery in front of him still made him feel intimidated.

In addition to these demonic plants and dead spirits, the island is a strange and craggy pile of stones.

Kereser recalled the second phrase of the Stone prophecy, contrasting the present scene.

"At the end of the Western Sea is the night of Yonglan; The ruins below the horizon, the inheritance of treasures. The stone giant, who has gained the power of the seal, stirs up the waves. ”

After pondering carefully, Kereser suddenly realized that this time he came to the Sea of the Undead was actually a good opportunity to explore the emblem.

As for the treasure mentioned in the prophecy, it is probably the third fragment of the emblem "Eliville".

The prophecy also mentions the "Stone Giant who has gained the power of the Seal", and one of the Golem monsters on this island has gained the power of the emblem.

In other words, Karesor only needs to defeat this monster to be able to recover the emblem.

At present, he has obtained two fragments of the coat of arms, which together are exactly half of "Eliville".

The first part is carried by the holy sword itself;

The second is obtained by Kereser in the Tower of Reverse Time, after slaying the lodger monsters.

Kereser regained his senses and moved cautiously, searching the prophesied Golem monster nearby, ready to fight.

At the same time, he cheered up his spirit and paid attention to his feet, because there were often one or several dark potholes on the ground.

These unexpected traps will devour the monsters that accidentally fall inside.

Keresor had never seen a living monster crawl out of the pit.

Ahead was a forest smaller than normal, with tree trunks and leaves pitch black.

So even though it's small, it's impossible to see what's in the middle, but a strong demonic breath erupts from it.

There must be something strange in this little wood, Kereser thought to himself.

Maybe it's the so-called Golem monster?

No, no, Golem shouldn't be that small, right?

He plucked up the courage to take the first step.

I didn't go far, and the road ahead went from pitch black to clear. It's a lake. Strangely, the lake is also pitch black, and it is so dark that you can barely see the bottom of the lake.

Keresse guessed that this should be the middle of the island, right?

In the middle of the lake is a hinterland, about five meters away from visitors.

On the hinterland is placed a large stone with a strange roundness, and ...... It stirred like a living thing.

"Perhaps the treasure that adventurers dream of is this monolith, which has nothing to do with the treasure. Huh......"

Demonic breath is strong. The strange stone in front of him actually exudes the same aura as a monster.

It turned out to be the source of the demonic breath that poured out of the forest.

If you attack this boulder, maybe something will happen, right? It doesn't matter if it's good or bad.

Kareser decided to take a gamble.

He condensed the Thunder Breath with his magic power, preparing to use the divine lightning strike to destroy the strange boulder in front of him.

Summoned by the god of thunder, Kerese, thunder flashed in the night sky. The roar broke through the air. But at the same time, the dark lake seemed to sense the flow of magic and reacted, and came alive.

The water in the lake is like slime, glued to each other, turning into a soft protective shield to protect the hinterland of the lake.

The thunder light condensed into the general's body, resonating with his demon veins.

Dazzling lightning was unleashed from the blade of the Holy Sword, which then transformed into a thunder dragon and bit the slime shield in the lake.

The scattered thunder light around it also weaved into a demon-hunting net to surround the target.

The onslaught of the thunder turned out to be the nemesis of all monsters.

But in front of this shield made of pitch-black liquid, there was nothing to be done.

Keresse unleashed his magic power and poured it into his magic skills, trying to pierce the monster's shield.

The liquid that guards the strange boulder is not water, but an unidentified insulating liquid. It wasn't until a second ago that it dawned on him that lightning strikes were not channelled through the liquid to the entire lake.

The light of thunder did not touch a single cent of the hinterland until the moment before it disappeared, and Kerese, who had overconsumed his mana, withdrew his mana and half-knelt to rest.

The Thunder's Breath faded for a moment, the pitch-black liquid in the lake returned to its original state, the surface of the lake returned to calm, and the boulders in the hinterland stirred as always.

It's really weird...... The liquid stuff in the lake is probably a kind of monster.

However, it only guarded the hinterland, and even if it was attacked by a group of thunderbolts as fierce as just now, it did not take the initiative to fight back.

Moreover, its ability to protect demons is very powerful, even stronger than the magic defense shield cast by high-level magicians.

Keresor stopped to rest, no longer recklessly attacking, for that would only drain his mana. So he sat down on the ground and calmed down to think about what to do.

From the moment he saw the strange boulder in the hinterland, Kereser thought it looked like something, but he couldn't say what it looked like.

Rounded...... Alive...... Agitate...... Agitate...... Pulsating......

The fact that it is closely guarded by "guards" on the outside may indicate that the stone is fragile...... The monolith has life and is fragile......

The ground was shaken, and unexpectedly, Karese, who was deep in thought, went into cardiac arrest and was startled.

"Scared me to death......" Kereser soothed his heart beating violently with surprise with his palm.

Bursts of agitation spread from the chest to the palms of the hands.

It seems that he was frightened, and his mind suddenly cleared;

Or maybe it was a random gesture just now that sparked his aura.

At this point, he seemed to have made a startling discovery.

"Do you mean...... That weird beating boulder is the "heart" of the island? It follows from this that ...... The island itself is the body of the prophesied "Stone Giant"? ”

At the same time that he realized this, there was another turmoil on the ground, this time an earthquake that seemed to be of such a high magnitude that it was impossible for Keresor to stand still. He thrust his greatsword into the ground and relied on it to keep himself from slipping.

The ground sloped up to the plane of the island and stood upright!

As the ground suddenly became vertical, the greatsword slipped through the crack, and Karesor fell into the sea with him.

At this time, the holy sword shone again, and he was protected by the holy sword, floating to the sea in the distance. Spit out a few mouthfuls of unpalatable water, and he discovers an amazing spectacle.

The island is no longer what it looks like, but has become a moving stone giant. The boulders on the island are stacked together with the island itself.

The roar pierced the sky, and even torrential rain fell, and the waves began to surge, just like the storms experienced on previous boat rides.

Although Karese was an experienced general, it was the first time he had seen such a large monster, even larger than the legendary dragon.

With such a big monster, how on earth is Kereser going to deal with it?

Behind him, a wave covered him, making his eyes black. His body drifted farther away with the violently swaying waves, and he was not in serious trouble under the protection of the holy sword.

From a distance, the stone giant, whose upper body peeks out of the sea, waves its arms furiously and roars, as if calling for wind and rain to ravage the sea.

It is almost impossible to fight it head-on, and even sending a whole army to fight is impossible to win.

Keresse pondered how to attack his weaknesses.

Based on previous experience, there is no doubt that the weakness of the giant is precisely that heart. However, it is well guarded by a powerful magical shield around it, so what can be done to destroy it?

Kerese thought a little. According to the principle of "balance of defensive effectiveness" in magic, when the magical defense ability of a magical substance is extremely high, its physical defense ability must be extremely weak.

In other words, if Karesor could get close to the giant's heart, he could actually use his greatsword to cut open the magic shield.

But that's hard to do. The giant's body is very large, and it is difficult to get close;

Second, even if you can get close to it, you don't know if there is any way to climb to the "chest" of the giant.

You can already see the target from a distance.

The pitch-black place in the giant's chest was the dense forest where Keresor had just been. Although the direction and position of his gaze had changed, he could still make out the difference.

"Cast me."

In a trance, Kereser heard a voice urging him for victory. At this time, the original Holy Sword Belgared responded to the general's will to win, and it was shining brightly, glowing with a silver glow of magical power.

"You...... How do you want me to cast you? ”

Kereser thought to himself that no matter how strong he was, he would not be able to throw a greatsword and hit the target accurately.

The emblem on the holy sword glowed, and it also responded to the master: "Drive your mind to change the form of the holy sword to what you need!" ”

Keresor pondered, trying to understand the meaning of the relic.

He asked himself what weapons he needed to destroy the giant's heart with a single blow.

Long-range firing weapons, powerful, one-hit kills.

Kereser understood, "I ...... All you need is a bow, and an arrow! ”

With the general's burning thoughts, the giant sword in his hand turned into a virtual body and merged into the light.

Blessed by the god of the sea brought by the divine weapon, Keresor stood on the surface of the sea, staring at the stone giants raging in the distance.

The general held a large, curved blue bow in his left hand and a meter-long virtual arrow made of lightning photons in his right hand.

The second form of the sacred weapon, the form of the Sea King's Divine Bow, absorbs the surrounding sacred elements to condense the entity, and appears in the hands of the Silver Wing General Kereser.

Standing on the surface of the sea, the general took a posture to draw his bow, and his arm holding the bow was as tight as a bowstring. He adjusted the inclination of his shots and held the bow in a distinctive pose. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, aiming at the target that was a hundred meters away.

And the arrows on the bow are ready to fire like birds of prey.

"Whew!" A popping sound pierced the sky, and arrows full of fiery magic and murderous aura shot in the direction of their target.

Thunderbolts pass through the air, through the wind, through the rain, through the vertical jungle, and even through the viscous liquid shield, overcoming many obstacles and hitting the monster's "heart" accurately.

The stone, which symbolizes the source of life for the Golem, bursts like a ball punctured by a needle.

It was destroyed by the powerful Arrow of Light. The monster's mana supply is cut off instantly. The giant's movements stopped for a moment.

The loud sound of the collapse reached Kereser's ears from afar.

From a distance, on the surface of the giant's body, stones have lost their adhesive force and peeled off.

The boulders that make up the body continue to separate and crumble one after another.

It wasn't long before the giant turned into a million pieces of rubble, lost its momentum, and sank into the sea in silence.

Thanks to the awakening of the second layer of power of the holy sword, it turned into a powerful divine bow, and this behemoth monster was killed in one fell swoop.

Hey, ...... completely victorious and destroying Demon Dance into pieces that no longer exists, seems to realize something.

At this point Kereser yells bad! The whole island is gone, how can I find the whereabouts of the emblem?

Isn't it because you have to dive to the bottom of the sea yourself, find the stones on the island one by one, and spend a long time finding and recovering the broken emblem mark carved into a corner of the island's fragments?

This is a job that is a hundred times more difficult and difficult than fighting the huge monster just now!

But then, it turned out that he was actually overthinking. Above the surface of the sea where the giant had fallen, a blue point of light lit up.

With the protection of the sea god brought by the divine weapon, Keresse hurriedly ran to the source of the bright spot on the sea.

He took a closer look and saw that the highlight was the third missing part of the emblem "Eliville".

The blue light, as if absorbed, disappeared with a little photon, and then disappeared completely.

At the same time, on top of the weapon that had been restored to the form of a greatsword, a new quarter of the ancient emblem appeared, spliced together with the old part.

The third part is also considered to be a successful recycling.

This is the biggest takeaway from this extremely difficult journey at sea.

Later, when Kereser was floating in the sea with the power of the Holy Sword, he happened to be spotted by a passing ship and once again joined the journey aimed at the northern part of the continent.

The next moment he had exhausted his remaining strength to board the ship and step onto deck, he fainted.

The voyage was free of storms, not even rainy, and it was a smooth sailing.

However, Keresse had palpitations.

When he took his first steps on land, he regained a sense of solidity in his heart, and he swore to himself. Unless it was a special circumstance, he would never travel by boat again.

From then on, Kereser no longer referred to his holy sword as a "holy sword".

Because it's not just a giant sword, it's an all-powerful sacred weapon.

It can change into two different forms depending on the situation of the battle - the greatsword and the bow, and perhaps in the future of the journey, it can also transform into other forms. Kereser decided to call this sacred weapon "Holy Warrior".

For Kerese, there was only one final leg left on the quest to find the mutilated Time Emblem.

P.S. Firsa's Journey Diary - Page 11

In the year 256 of the Alchemy Calendar of the Principality of Van Luntieno, the dark moon was 05th......

Defeated in battle against the entangled kingdom's old enemy...... Ever since I was rescued by the adventurers, I don't know how many days I've been asleep since I woke up?

On that day, the demon vein began to show a subnormal state, presumably because of the sequelae, and now I can't believe in cause and effect.

If the Demon Lord hadn't left, I don't think I would have come back alive.

Guess who he really is...... I really don't understand why he didn't do this, damn it......

(Flip the page)

Before encountering the enemy, go to the ruins of the Eagle Palace to find clues to the "dream memory".

Since experiencing his personal experience, I have really admired Alfonsiqing more and more.

Especially after personally experiencing his battle for the South......

Can my emblem become as strong as his......

Separated from Shirley...... Where the hell is she now...... Want to see her......

-

In the middle of the night, Felsa raised his left hand with difficulty, picked up a thin piece of white bread from the table, and slowly put it into his mouth. Panicking with hunger and choking on breadcrumbs in his throat, he coughed violently a few times.

Since losing the fight to the death with Van - although the accurate result is that both sides were defeated, but Filsa was injured even more -

Later, he was rescued by a group of adventurers who occasionally passed by. Ordered by the Adventurers' Guild, they travel to the ruins to find the Demon Lord Fred and the generals around him.

As a result, they did not find any trace of the enemy. But then they found something else wrong, so they decided to continue their exploration, and finally found Firsa at the innermost end of the labyrinth, who had been fighting the enemy all the time, and was dying.

Knowing that he was no match for the many adventurers who had come to reinforce him, Van used fire magic to destroy the unstable secret passage in the labyrinth, and took advantage of the chaos to escape from the ruins.

By the time the adventurer helped Filsa out of the crumbling secret passage, Van had long since disappeared.

The adventurers kindly sent Filsa to a nearby town called "Dipu".

Seriously injured, he lost contact with his companion Shirley and fell asleep for several days after he was rescued from the ruins.

Only now is his injury just beginning to improve.

"Next time...... Be sure to defeat the enemy! Filsa swore to herself.

-

Van Ti Teren limped and fled to the desert with a serious injury.

The battle with the Reincarnation of Elphons almost exhausted his magic power, but in the end he still failed to kill him.

Instead, he was hindered by a group of adventurers who suddenly appeared.

With the current injuries on his body, he must rest for a while before he can continue to hunt down the enemy.

He secretly vowed that the next time they met, he would kill Alphonse at all costs, even if it was to die together.

The tired Brahma leaned under a tree, calmed down, adjusted his inner breath, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

In the blur, the memories of the kingdom period surged back again.
