Chapter 186 [Glory Crystal Mirror] [Burning Gold]
What Lin Deliek handed to Xia En was a strange mirror.
However, it is very different from the mirror in Xia En's perception.
Its mirror is composed of several smooth and exquisite prisms. Each prism reflects the surrounding scene from different angles, making it look a bit bizarre.
The longer you stare at it, the more you feel like your soul is being sucked into it.
On its back, there are many tiny pipes and wire harnesses, forming a shape similar to chips on Earth.
Xia En frowned suddenly.
The first feeling this thing gave him was...
The sense of technology!
It is as if this mirror is not a special relic, but an exquisite and complex technological creation of some advanced civilization.
This is actually not the first time that Xia En has seen this weird "sense of technology".
In the previous [Ember Shelter], the buildings and instruments there also showed a similar style.
This shows that the technological level of some areas in the old era is not only far higher than that of the current Federation of Seven Seas, but is even higher than that of the Earth in Shane's previous life.
However, what was Lin Deliek’s purpose in giving this thing to him?
Not long after, Xia En’s doubts disappeared as a few lines of information emerged in front of him.
[Glory Crystal Mirror]
[Quality: Legend]
[Type: Relic]
[Description: A bishop of Hui Religion in the old days was inspired by an oracle. The mysterious relic created later. 】
【Inject spiritual power into it, and the consciousness can temporarily enter the "Land of Glory" and communicate with other people who hold the "Brilliant Crystal" over long distances. 】
【The divine glow connects us! 】
Legendary artifact!
Xia En couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.
Up to now, he owns only a few [Legendary] props.
Now, Lin Deliek's move was so generous, which was a little beyond Xia En's expectation.
As for the effect of this relic, it is actually easy to understand.
This is nothing more than a long-distance communication prop.
Most of the people who can hold this crystal mirror have a close connection with the Lord of Billions of Glory.
Lindelek’s explanation also proves this point.
“Now in the Seven Seas, the glory of the Lord of Light has gone far away, but there are still some people who have taken refuge in the light.”
"Among them, there are many officials at the top of the federation, and there are also lone wolves like me."
"But since we are all believers of the Lord of Radiance, we must always hold each other together to keep each other warm, and this mirror is us A means of communication.”
Xia En’s eyes twitched.
When Lin Deliek said this, he really regarded him as an envoy of God and one of his own.
But he is really not a believer of the Lord of Radiance!
Without waiting for Xia En to defend himself, Lindereck continued: "When the surface of the mirror lights up, it is when the current Archbishop initiates a rally."
"On weekdays, you can also use the crystal on your own. Mirror, but you need to try your luck whether you can meet other people."
As soon as he heard this, Xia En understood immediately.
Isn’t this just a chat group?
Normally everyone may not be online.
Only when the administrator (archbishop) meets all members (convenes a meeting), these people will bubble up to chat and exchange information.
Thinking about it this way, the reason why Lin Deliek was able to master so much information was obviously due to this [Brilliant Crystal Mirror].
Thinking of this, Xia En rarely hesitated.
The value of [Glory Crystal Mirror] is self-evident.
On the Seven Seas without the Internet, there is actually a lag in the transmission of messages.
A stable source of intelligence can not only seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but also be one step ahead at critical moments.
Sometimes, a quick step leads to a quick step by step.
It is no exaggeration to say that this mirror is priceless.
But on the other hand, accepting it means that the relationship between Xia En and the Lord of Hui has deepened again.
From a long-term perspective, this may not be a good thing.
After thinking for a moment, Xia En asked: "If I took this mirror, wouldn't you, Captain Lindeleck..."
Lindryk grinned: "Don't worry, Lord Envoy, I'm here There is more than one mirror like this."
He obviously saw Xia En's concerns and said proactively.
"Captain Xia En, I know that you haven't recognized your identity as a divine envoy yet, and you also have some misunderstandings about our Hui Sect."
"But please don't worry, we will never force you to You do things you don’t want to do.”
"In fact, some of the people who have obtained the [Glory Crystal Mirror] are not pure believers, but speculators and careerists who want to make profits with it."
"Even so, even the Archbishop He didn't exclude or be hostile to them."
Xia En frowned: "Why?"
"If you really want to say it, there is only one reason..."
Lin Derek straightened his expression and said seriously.
"You are destined to be with my Lord."
......
......
Not long after.
Xia En held the [Glory Crystal Mirror] and watched Lin Deliek return to the [Fishing Number] in the boat.
Lin Deliek's last words, which sounded mysterious and mysterious, convinced him.
As early as when he entered the church in [Coral City], Xia En had formed an indissoluble bond with the Lord of Radiance.
Or, cause and effect?
Obviously, this fate cannot be easily lifted for the time being.
Instead of guarding against any hidden conspiracy, it is better to accept the [Glory Crystal Mirror] openly and penetrate them inside.
If they really want to do anything to us, they can just stop it with soldiers and cover it with water and soil.
Xia En picked up the mirror and looked around carefully, and suddenly found a small line of text in the corner behind the mirror——
[T-34 Spectral Communication Prism]
This line of characters is not the common language used on the sea today, nor is it other languages that Sean is familiar with, but its meaning clearly comes to mind.
"Hiss..."
"Could this thing, like [Heart of Steam], be a mass-produced creation?"
Just when Xia En was secretly surprised.
Not far away, Joey couldn't help but exclaimed: "Mr. Captain, [Fishing Number] it..."
Xia En's heart skipped a beat, and he turned to look at Lindley The direction of departure.
I saw that for some reason, a flickering mist rose up around the dilapidated steamship, and gradually enveloped the [Dishler] and [Viper] in it.
On the deck, Lindereck waved goodbye to Shane.
"Captain Shane, we will meet again!"
Not long after, the light-like fog-like substance completely submerged the two ships.
When the light dissipated, both ships disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.
Obviously, this is what Lindereck said, the method of dealing with the Viper.
And this method once again proved the extraordinaryness of [Fishing Number].
……
……
Early the next morning. The early morning sun is spreading over the sea, giving the entire deck a warm atmosphere.
The sea breeze blows through the cabin, which is completely warm and pleasant.
However, there is also a bit of heat in the sea breeze.
On the distant sea, a yellow island was gradually revealed, which made the crew all cheer up and prepare for the battle.
That is the destination of their trip——
[Sand Island]
Shane stood at the bow of the boat and looked into the distance.
Just as Alyssa said, this island covered with yellow sand is surprisingly large.
Looking from a distance like this, it’s like seeing a piece of land!
However, [Sand Island] is indeed very desolate.
As far as the eye can see, there is only white yellow sand, and there are not even a few dry old trees, and the atmosphere of loneliness and desolation blows in the face.
But the ships on the surrounding sea broke this dead atmosphere.
In the past few days, Xia En has encountered dozens of ships.
There are some big and small, some unknown, some high on the federal bounty list, some pirate ships, and some [hunting ships].
The forces from all sides are surging.
And this is actually the result of preliminary screening.
Due to the special restrictions of [Island of Sand], particularly powerful mystics will not come to the island to rob them.
The environment in the [Magnetic Sea Area] also naturally wiped out a group of weak ships.
——Without the Mystic Passenger, there is no way for a ship to pass through the [Magnetic Sea Area] and reach the [Island of Sand].
If not for this, the number of ships near the [Sand Island] would have increased several times!
Fortunately, these ships actually maintained considerable restraint.
Except for those who have deep hatred and hatred, almost no one takes the initiative to provoke conflicts.
The fight for the treasure hasn’t started yet!
What is there to beat to death?
The most intense conflict in the past two days was the battle between the [Black Swan] and the [Viper] yesterday.
And this sea area is so large, the results of the conflict have naturally spread throughout the world.
This also led to——
After the nearby ships saw the [Black Swan] fleet, they all hid far away, and no one dared to provoke them.
"Hey, how come all these pirates are so good at learning?"
Xia En looked at a pirate ship that was hiding away and couldn't help but sigh: "I also want to loot a few more pirate ships to subsidize It’s for home use!”
The transaction with Lindereck made Xia En fully aware of...
Thousands of gold dragon coins are not enough to spend on those really good things!
He has two boats to maintain!
All kinds of rare materials, of course there is never too much.
Xia En glanced at the [Black Swan], which was becoming more and more unpleasant in appearance, and suddenly felt that [Fishing Number]'s disguise was not unreasonable.
At this moment.
Xia En glanced out of the corner of his eye and caught a glimpse of a huge warship docked on the coast of [Sand Island].
Its front end is slender, and the rear part expands in several directions, like several leaves, with a strange and beautiful shape.
It has a black hull, with gold and dark red stripes running through the hull, like the veins of leaves.
With such a shape and color scheme, it is most likely a battleship of the Vampire clan.
Xia En suddenly felt awe-inspiring.
This big ship is not at the same level as the Viper.
The vampires on the ship must also be real big shots.
Fei Ya walked up behind Xia En and murmured in shock: "[Ranjin]...it's actually here too."
Xia En asked: "Do you recognize it? This ship?"
"Yes."
Feiya nodded, and her tone was unusually dry: "When I was very young, that ship visited [Silver Moon Island] once."
"Its captain was an extremely terrifying woman. Her name is Twilight. "
"When I met her, she was already a second-class descendant, awakening the mysterious and ancient [Burning Gold Blood], and she was a true noble among the vampires!"
“With our current strength, we simply cannot compete with them.”
Xia En clearly understands this without Fei Ya’s reminder.
However, looking at the posture of the [Ranjin], it seemed that it was confronting another ship, so it did not notice the [Black Swan] ships.
Xia En decisively controlled the [Black Swan] and approached the [Sand Island] in a roundabout way.
This is the benefit of [Sand Island]’s large area.
Even though there are a lot of ships coming here, they are scattered to every coast, but they are all separated by a considerable safe distance.
Seeing the [Burning Gold] disappear from sight, Xia En secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The appearance of this ship reminded him again -
Compared with the real strong man, he is only the third level now, and he is nothing!
If the [Ranjin] really comes after them, they may have no choice but to flee for their lives in a hurry.
But now, although I have temporarily avoided it, it does not mean that I and others are safe.
After thinking for a moment, Xia En made a decision.
"After docking later, An and I will go explore the [Sand Island], while the others will drive the [Black Swan] and [Diamond Star] to hide in distant waters."
Qiao Yi's beautiful eyes widened: "Mr. Captain! How is this possible?",
"At least...take me with you!"
Fei Ya also said seriously: "I won't abandon you. Get off the captain and leave.”
Other crew members also expressed their opinions, and even Xian Ge expressed his desire to go to the island with Xia En.
"Listen to my explanation."
Seeing the crew members' reactions, Xia En was quite moved, but he still analyzed them in detail.
A ship docked on the coast is like a target, with the risk of being attacked at any time.
Moving at sea is safer.
Moreover, now the ship soul of the [Black Swan] has become more mature. Not only can it travel on its own, but it can also sense its own call from a long distance.
When Xia En breaks through to the fourth level, whether he continues to go deep into the [Island of Sand] or leaves directly, he has no worries anymore.
As for the candidates to go to the island, Xia En did not choose randomly.
Although An is only at the second level, with the blessing of this armor, he can also exert his third level combat power.
Furthermore, An's body is relatively strong among the crew members, and is suitable for the special environment of [Sand Island].
The only one who can compare with him is Yan Yan.
But Yan Yan's combat power is also the strongest on the ship, even better than Xia En in some cases.
So he needs to stay on the ship in case of emergency.
Joy’s home court is at sea, and when he goes to [Sand Island], he can exert less than one-tenth of his combat power.
Besides, Xia En is here to make a breakthrough, so bringing too many people will become a burden.
After this explanation, the crew members quickly understood his intentions and had no choice but to obey the order.
After all, Xia En's prestige is here, and no one wants to resist.
Only Joey was a little unhappy because the captain didn't take him with him.
After giving the order.
[Black Swan] docked on the coast of [Sand Island].
At this time, Xia En no longer walked with Loren and the others, but took An quickly closer to the center of [Sand Island].
Soon, a vast desert came into view.
