In the early morning, the smoke from the bonfire curled up.

Olivia, who was curled up in Ai Wen's arms, woke up leisurely. She raised her head and saw her boyfriend who had been staring at her for who knows how long. Although the girl was outgoing, her face was still slightly blushing and she greeted her.

:

"Good morning, Alvin!"

The accommodation conditions were indeed poor when the "Magic Pocket" was banned, but the girl slept peacefully, at least feeling secure and at ease.

Olivia believed that as long as Alvin was by her side, let alone a deserted island in the wild, even if the sky fell, this man would help her withstand it.

I also have the ability to withstand it.

"Good morning, Hersie!"

With a slight smile, he lifted up his broad captain's cloak, and the two people who slept in the same clothes last night officially got up.

Even if his arms were pillowed by the girl all night, Aiwen's strong third-level physical fitness did not make him feel numb or sore at all, which was enough to make ordinary people envious.

Regardless of whether the girl was really weak or in need of personal protection, Alvin knew that if he really chose to sleep separately last night, he would really deserve to be without a wife for the rest of his life.

He helped Olivia smooth out the wrinkles on her skirt, helped her put on the pair of glass slippers that had temporarily lost their witchcraft effect, and then washed up hastily and finished breakfast.

hiss--

At this time, the extremely docile "Bramble Sea Snake" had changed its attitude and placed its big flat head on the beach, allowing the two people holding hands to walk up calmly, and then shrunk again and jumped along with it.

Get on Alvin's shoulder.

"Pipi Snake, let's go."

If the wisdom is enough, the "thorn-crowned sea snake" will probably complain in his heart:

‘I suspect that you disrespect me at all by giving me this name, although I have no proof...”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!...

Then, the thirty-meter-long giant snake took on the attitude of a sea monster and rushed up to the island, rocks, vegetation, low hills... It was as if it didn't exist at all in front of it, and the strong wind blew against its face and ran as fast as flying.

Even the two people who were deeply affected by the "blood of adventurers" last night were not so reckless as to set off overnight as soon as they heard the news about the treasure.

Since it is a treasure that was artificially stored here, maybe besides the "Bramble Crown Sea Serpent" there is a protective force that it doesn't know about, although this possibility is not high.

Because for things like treasures, unless they are placed under the nose of the peak powerhouse, others can see but cannot get them, the best way is to put them in a place where no one can find them, and no guarding force can

It can only serve as an embellishment.

After all, no matter how tightly designed the level is, some people can pass it without any injuries. As long as you are discovered, you may be conquered!

At least in Ivan's view, the eight forbidden effects on the island have been done well enough. Even if there is an occasional fish that slips through the net? A "Bramble Crown Sea Serpent" with the cooperation of the forbidden magic effect is enough to deal with it.

If it weren't for the chance of the shadow jumping? Even if I passed by outside the island, I would never notice it.

It's been a blast all the way.

Soon he came to the side of a valley, where Ivan finally discovered traces of human activity. Was it a footprint that was so faint that it was almost invisible? Judging from the freshness of the traces, it was at least half a year ago.

The vegetation grows luxuriantly in the subtropical region, and other subtle traces from the seaside to here? have long been wiped out by the power of nature itself.

The Thorn Crown Sea Snake did not stop here, and swished straight into the valley. Finally, it stopped in front of an unremarkable weathered rock wall.

"Is this right here?"

Looking at the tall, rough and even moss-covered rock wall? Whether Ivan used "data-based vision" or "low-voltage pulse" observation, he found no abnormalities at all.

If we really search according to the original plan, we may not be able to find this place even if we turn the entire pirate building over.

At that time, will we really have no choice but to venture out to sea and cross the whirlpool zone and the broken waves? Where is the boundary of exploring this forbidden area?

In the meaning conveyed by the "Bramble Crown Sea Serpent"? The treasure transported by humans is behind the rock wall. As for what is in it, it is not within the scope of its knowledge.

Bang——

Pulling Olivia back a little further, he ordered Pipi, who had gloriously transformed from a janitor snake into a twenty-five-year-old boy, to sweep the rock wall with his steel tail.

The camouflage effect on the surface is stronger than the defense. After a heavy blow and a muffled sound, a huge black cave was revealed on the rock wall.

The smoke and dust cleared.

"There's no trap, KaKa will explore the way? Pippi will stay behind."

Leave Pippi, who is too big and unable to change shape freely, outside.

Two people and a dragon walked through a rock tunnel without any decoration? It still retains rough chiseling marks and has not even been polished.

After careful multi-pronged inspection to confirm that there were no physical traps? Ivan personally pushed open the similarly rough stone door at the end of the tunnel, which was made locally.

After crossing the high stone threshold, which was obviously used to prevent rats, there is a stone room behind it that is similar to the buffer room in a dust-proof laboratory. There are many sacks of quicklime piled in the stone room, and on the wall opposite the stone room there are

It is the second stone door that isolates the inside and outside.

Seeing this layout that was obviously used for physical protection, Ivan became more and more looking forward to what was behind.

It is insect-proof, moisture-proof, and prevents direct air circulation... The things behind it are a bit precious, and may not be the gold and silver treasures originally imagined.

However, it didn't wait until the two of them took a closer look.

"ah--!"

With a sharp roar, two human knights with illusory shapes and heavy armor in the style of Cyrus had broken free from the door opposite, and rushed towards the two of them with the biting wind.

What greeted them was a blue-white blazing electric light.

Boom!

Ivan slowly withdrew his right hand with the remaining electric light. Even though they were two powerful evil spirits that may have reached the second level limit, not even a particle of evil spirit dust remained in place after this blow.

Push open the last door, and then...

In the dark space, a golden treasure box was placed generously in front of them.

"Is it that simple?"

"Is it that simple?"

"Easy?"

"Single?"

"?"

There was no warning from the spirit. After confirming that there was no danger, Ivan said something to himself and was about to step forward to check. Suddenly he heard a continuous echo and immediately raised his hand to release an electric arc that traveled in the air.

I could clearly see the wider space in the darkness behind the treasure chest, and I also saw what was in the dark space.

It's better to say it's a treasure house than a large warehouse.

There is nothing else, just piles of wood, which are mountains of processed "iron oak", and they are not ordinary iron oak, but extraordinary materials with dazzling aura!

"This...this is a treasure tree!"

As the manager of "Treasure Tree Bay", Falatis, Alvin has certainly seen what a real treasure tree looks like, and has even personally appreciated the rough products temporarily stored in Teda Disfort.

He was very sure that this was the extraordinary ship material from "Baoshu Bay" - Baoshu.

Tap tap tap...

Alvin stepped forward in disbelief and stroked the sparkling wood. He almost thought he was dreaming.

Because when wood gets wet, its volume will expand, and when sunlight evaporates and the water evaporates, the volume of wood will shrink, even if it is an extraordinary material.

No matter what kind of wood is in this long-term process of continuous expansion and shrinkage, whether it has been treated with anti-corrosion or not, it will cause deformation and cracking.

It must be properly stored using specific methods.

In order to prevent the reproduction of bacteria and insects, the moisture content of the logs needs to be reduced to 25% or less. In order to reduce the dryness and cracking of the wood, measures such as rough peeling (bast preservation), shading and overall wax coating have been taken.

Moreover, the ventilation system is obviously designed by famous designers. Even though it is on an island, the wind that comes in is neither too humid nor too dry. It uses the natural environment to create physical conditions like constant temperature and humidity in a high-standard laboratory.

This ensures the proper preservation of these precious and extraordinary materials.

There was a flash of lightning in my mind.

Ivan immediately thought of the fact that the Steel Knight mysteriously went out to sea with three large cargo ships before, transporting goods all the way south.

At that time, the winter storm season had not yet entered south of Cape Agulhas, so it was entirely possible to come here and take away the ship materials.

As for the vortex, it is not difficult to pass through. There are two possibilities: the first vortex belt will only appear in specific seasons; the second steel knight masters the method of crossing the vortex belt.

At least Alvin knows that the Thorn Crown Sea Serpent has a certain ability to calm vortexes and huge waves.

"After the Silius people got their share from the 'Treasure Tree Bay', why didn't they transport it back to their country, instead of staying here nearby?"

I haven't figured it out after thinking about it for a while, but it is preliminary visual inspection that these raw materials are enough to build one of the largest first-class ships in the world, and there is still some leftover.

You must know that a first-class sea overlord ship built with ordinary materials also requires 50,000 gold lions, but a fourth-class ship that can be called a battleship only requires about 13,000 gold lions. You can see the huge gap between them.

What's more, these are extraordinary materials, which cannot be obtained even if the price of ordinary wood is multiplied by ten.

And here are all the best quality tree trunks. This may have been reserved since the countries finished the battle for the "Treasure Tree Bay" and Silius determined 50% of the treasure tree share.

"Evan, come and take a look at this. The source of the forbidden has been found!"

The girl's voice of surprise suddenly came. Olivia, who was obviously more interested in the treasure than a pile of wood, had already checked the shining golden treasure box.
