Chapter 220: Treasure Island Taboo: Please give money in distress

Of all the expedition ships, the first to catch the tsunami was naturally the Golden Deer and the Lancer, the closest to Treasure Island.

Bang la blah

A snow-white line of water carried a huge amount of seawater, like thousands of white horses breaking the waves of the sea, charging towards them in an instant.

"Full left rudder, change with the wind, and rush to that wave."

Byron gripped the steering wheel and gave the order calmly.

The old captains know that in the face of a tsunami, ships at sea must not rush back to port or dock.

Instead, you should immediately sail into deep water.

Because tsunamis are long waves, the wavelength that travels in the open ocean is very long, but the wave height is very low, the wavelength may be hundreds of kilometers long, but the wave height may be only one or two meters.

At this time, even if the adventure ship with a small tonnage can force it to pass as long as it turns its bow and uses its bow to meet the crest.

Once a tsunami enters the continental shelf, the sea depth becomes shallower and the wave height increases dramatically, and it may soar into a 20 to 30-meter stormy wave, destroying everything in an instant.

Luckily, this is the deep open sea within the Sapphire Sea, with only a few islands dotted around.

The waves set off by the tsunami were only 1.2 meters high.

The Golden Deer and the Lancer, although the closest to Treasure Island, are almost immediately on the edge of the island, and theoretically face the highest wave height.

But the crest of two and a half meters is far from the extent of destroying their two excellent warships.

Byron was at the helm himself, and the knight's riding skills were brought to the extreme.

As a [Storm Knight] who was only one step away from the third-order [Storm Admiral], he instantly became one with the Golden Deer human ship.

Even the sea below him seems to breathe with it.

The Golden Deer rode the wind and waves, soared into the sky at the crest of the wave, and landed safely at the trough.

On the surface, it seems to be dangerous, but in fact, it has carried the biggest crest as a rock.

"Although as a knight, I can't instinctively refuse to capture a dream dragon like the [Mithril Dragon] as a mount.

But reason tells me that perhaps finding a ghost ship that also has a soul, the equivalent of an alternative undead creature, is the best choice for me, the Storm Rider. ”

The adventurers behind him who dared to come here to try their skills also made the same move.

All of them have been screened by at least the dangerous "First Circulation", and they have worked hard to get the treasure map, and none of them are inexperienced novice rookies.

When the circular tsunami centered on "Treasure Island" rushed in all directions, all the sailing ships at sea did not hesitate to turn en masse and conquer it in the face of the tsunami.

There are very few unlucky people who have been killed by this wave of danger.

Looking at the glittering giant island in front of him getting closer and closer, Byron couldn't help but sigh:

"It's no wonder that this island lasts for more than half a month every time it appears.

For an island of this size, not to mention 100% complete exploration.

Even walking from the outermost part of the periphery to the treasure cave in the center of the island in the middle of the island is not something that can be done in three or five days. ”

Then he turned to the two pirate ships and ordered:

"Draw the ship's men and assemble a most elite fifty-man marine.

The Golden Deer landed with me, and the Lancers joined the Flaming Rose, which arrived later, to pick them up.

Let's eat a trench and grow wise.

The last time we ventured back from the Azk Kings, we were nearly robbed by Barbary pirates.

This time, it's our turn to be fishermen.

Of course, if anyone can make it back from this Treasure Island. ”

When he said this last sentence, Byron's face was meaningful.

"Yes, Captain."

Without delay, the Golden Deer, which was smaller and had a shallower draft, soon came to rest on a relatively gentle-looking, glowing white sand.

Lower the sail and anchor, slightly camouflaged.

This is also the landing place of the Lancastrian family adventure party 11 years ago.

Byron jumped off the ship with his core pirate officers and elite marines and took out a treasure map.

Deciphering the code words attached above, once again reiterate to all the crew the precautions of this adventure:

"Rule one, everyone has to buy off the gold-eating ants guarding the beach with two gold coins to land on the island, and the weight of one gold coin must not be less than 40 grams.

(Most of the dangers on the island can be cleared with money, and if you have enough money, you may not experience any danger and go straight to the Treasure Cave.) )”

It's not the first time Byron has seen this rule, but he can't help but shake his head once he looks at it.

"Please close your eyes when it's dark, and please give money in distress?

Sure enough, even the secret realm is snobbish, and having money is not a problem, but my only problem now is that I don't have money.

After all, why go on a treasure hunt if I'm not short of money? ”

"Rule 2, you must restrain your greed, know what you want from this island, and know how to make trade-offs.

Otherwise, greed will turn your blood into gold.

This rule sounds like a metaphor, a trick. After all, how can blood turn into gold? ”

"Rule three, the rainbow light over the island will decrease layer by layer, and when the last layer of rainbow light disappears, the island will sink back into the sea.

Wait for the next prime year to reappear. ”

"There are obviously more than three rules on the island, but the progress of exploration of this island is too limited at the moment, and no one has a way to clear the level without harm."

Geographers and astronomers alike have proven that the world they live in is a giant ball.

But the Church's Gospel of Creation compares the material world in which human beings live, and the human subconscious as a whole, to a vast ship sailing on the essentia sea.

There should be many similar worlds.

The essentia tides and secret knowledge that penetrate this world from the "cracks in the plank" have created a variety of extraordinary powers.

Unlike the Demonless World, no one dares to say that the Church's occult theories are wrong.

On the contrary, after the adventurers left the confines of the Old World and set sail, more and more discoveries proved the correctness of this theory.

And the reason for the formation of many secret realms, forbidden areas, and special zones is because the gap between the material world and the essentia sea has been accidentally opened.

As a result, in a relatively closed area, there are not only various bizarre existences in human history and fantasy.

Like those grotesque evil spirits, the confrontation between divinity and beastliness, order and chaos has produced all kinds of strange taboos.

Only by carefully following the corresponding rules can you die relatively not so easily.

The [Adventurer] of the Wilderness Sequence, the [Naturalist] and [Prophet] of the Tower Sequence, are the most proficient in deciphering the secret realm.

Usually, after entering the secret realm, you can decipher some of the shallow rules directly from the air.

Of course, the decryption effect of the core competence of the logbook [Echoes of History] will never be inferior to that of any decryption expert.

Not only that, but this treasure map in Byron's hand has one more sentence than everyone else:

"Warning, when you hear the sound of cicadas in your ears, no matter how tempting the treasure in front of you is, you must evacuate as soon as possible."

This is also the information that the expedition of the Lancaster family sent back at the last moment of the total annihilation.

It meant that eighty percent of the enemies on this island were absolutely difficult for even the third-order transcendents to resist, which caused them to have no survivors in the first place.

Byron silently chewed on a few rules:

"Cicadas? What exactly do you mean? ”

At this moment, Bruch, who was standing beside him, suddenly pulled his sleeve and glanced at the dense mangrove forest with a solemn face.

Byron looked up, and saw a crooked mast standing in the middle of the forest, covered with moss, and a half-worn flag at the top still waving in the wind.

Even though it was no different from a rag strip, Byron recognized it at a glance, it was the Red Rose insignia of the Lancastrian family!

At this time, the [Hidden: The Mystery of Treasure Island's Wealth Growth, Historical Influence 29] solution density has also quietly increased from 18% to 25%.
