A huge merchant ship with a length of about 40 meters and a wide body stopped at the edge of the dark area. There was no gun muzzle used for protection on the whole ship.
Three tall masts were hung with black sails, and the flags of the dead were on top.
In addition to this ship, there were two pirate assault ships that were only about 20 meters long but armed to the teeth.
However, the state of these pirate ships at this time can be described as miserable.
These pirate ships were surrounded in the middle, surrounded by four warships from the Church of the Virgin Mary.
The stone-shaking cannons on the warships of the Church of the Virgin Mary had already stopped attacking because the enemy's ships had already been paralyzed.
The masts and lower decks of the two pirate assault ships used for attack had already been destroyed.
These pirate ships have been controlled by them.
A knight wearing soft armor and holding a long sword came to the deck of the pirate ship.
Looking at the miserable situation around him, he could not help but frown.
Countless silk threads penetrated the surrounding pirates and hung them everywhere. These threads penetrated and bound them, and even strangled them.
The scene on the ship was a bit like the bloody slaughter in a spider's nest.
Many pirates have not died yet, and they kept wailing. Blood slid down from the silk threads along with their breathing.
Many people no longer had the strength to scream.
Although he also hated the pirates, the appearance of these pirates also made him frown.
Looking at Vanessa who was wiping the blood on her hands on the deck at this time, he couldn't help but sigh, shook his head, and closed his mouth that wanted to teach a lesson.
After all, he knew the truth that he should not advise others to be kind without experiencing their suffering.
Not to mention that he also knew some of Vanessa's situation. If these scumbags on the sea can make their friends and colleagues feel more relieved, it can be regarded as their duty.
"As a doctor, you should stay on the ship. It's not your job to charge ahead."
Vanessa turned her head and stared at him. She didn't have time to wipe the blood off her face. She said in a flat voice: "It is because I am a doctor that I need to treat myself. If I don't vent, I can't hold on until this pirate group is destroyed."
At this time, a young man who looked like a recorder came over in a church priest's robe.
Having witnessed the tragic situation on the ship with his own eyes, he didn't have too many emotional fluctuations.
He came to the side of the knight captain and said: "Captain, the three ships have been completely controlled. These pirates should be out for supplies."
"Have you asked what they are doing in the Dark Realm?" The captain immediately turned his head and asked.
"Yes, their team is wandering on the edge of the Dark Realm, chasing some very important targets."
Hearing this, Vanessa's eyes flashed.
The enemy's actions showed that they had not caught Alka and his men yet, and they were still on the run.
Xadaiti, who was acting with Alka, might not be in too much danger.
She could only think positively.
But at this time, the captain turned around and stared at Vanessa next to him and said, "I know what you want to do, but you should know how big the Dark Realm is. If you rush in to find them, it will undoubtedly be like looking for a needle in a haystack. I hope you know what you are doing."
Hearing this, Vanessa turned around and walked away.
"Of course I know."
The captain turned around and looked at the pirate ships, and couldn't help thinking.
These pirates began to send out ships to buy supplies, indicating that they were already short of supplies.
It was unrealistic to rush into the Dark Realm to capture people, otherwise this pirate would not have survived until now.
Fortunately, the surrounding forces are willing to give the Church of the Virgin Mary a favor, block all possible places for supplies around the Dark Realm, and provide information and help to the church at any time.
They just need to make the dead pray unable to hold on.
As for the real goal, the Holy Relic of the Virgin Mary, a team has already headed to the Dark Realm.
I hope the young man holding the Holy Relic can hold on for a while longer.
…
At this time, at the edge of the Dark Realm, a fleet consisting of three warships about 30 meters long is sailing here.
From the color and pattern of the warship, it can be known that this is the ship of the Church of the Virgin Mary.
The three warships are in a triangle, sailing on the periphery of the Dark Realm with mutual vigilance.
On the ship, Jason was leaning on the side of the ship, looking at the dark sea.
Among the three people who escaped from the Sea Fist, Jason joined the team that went to the Dark Realm to search for Alka and his traces.
Vanessa was on the periphery, joining the blockade team.
As for Gami, he was naturally left in the church.
"What are you thinking about?" A young knight attendant came to Jason's back and asked.
Hearing the voice from behind, Jason said without turning his head: "I'm wondering how Alka and the others are doing now."
"Is it the man holding the Holy Artifact of the Virgin Mary?"
"Yes."
"Don't worry, as long as he uses the Holy Sword, we can roughly sense their location."
Hearing this, Jason nodded. Alka and the others should be able to use the Holy Sword to fight in this ghost place easily.
Using the Holy Sword, the bishop on the ship can sense the location, so that they can find Alka, protect him, and take back the Holy Artifact.
At this time, Alka, Sofia and Pororo were staying on an island.
The Flying Swallow stopped on the beach, and the three of them lit a fire not far from the beach and rested quietly.
Bororo was cutting fish meat and roasting it with wooden sticks he made.
At this time, Alka was telling the two about his future plans.
"If you want to hide in the Dark Realm and avoid my father's pursuit, you must first improve your strength to the second spiral."
"Sofia, how long do you expect it to take?"
After hearing Alka's words, Sofia, who was slightly stunned, came back to her senses and thought for a while before saying: "At the current speed, it will not exceed half a year at most."
After all, it has been a year since Sofia was promoted to the first spiral, and at this stage she has already consolidated her strength.
Now with the help of the meditation spell, her strength will naturally advance by leaps and bounds. She is also a genius who can comprehend the spell when she first touches the treasure.
Naturally, there is no need to worry too much about the speed of strength improvement.
Hearing Sofia's words, Porro, who was grilling fish, turned his head and looked at her: "Then you are quite strong, so young."
After all, the age of the girl in front of him seemed to be no more than 20 years old.
Sofia nodded politely and thanked Porro for the compliment.
Then Alka counted the potions in Sofia's ring and his pocket ring.
Then he calculated the intensity of the dark invasion in the central area before, and the number of potions that might be consumed.
They can definitely hold on until their strength is increased to the second spiral.
"The dark elements in the periphery cannot resist the central area. In the periphery, we may be sensed by my father through his ability.
If we are in the central area, it will be difficult for them to find our traces."
This is what Lucilia speculated. It may not be completely accurate, but it is very credible.
As he spoke, Alka looked at Pororo. Sofia certainly had no objection. It all depended on what this fishman, who had just met them for a short time, had.
Pororo listened to Alka's words and shook his head casually when he saw him turn his gaze.
"I don't care. We can go anywhere."
"Sangkaka's dying wish was for me to protect you two and leave the Dark Realm safely, but it's obvious that your father doesn't want you to leave here like this."
"And I don't have the strength to force you two to break through their encirclement.
So you just need to take care of your subsequent actions. I will try my best to protect you. If there is a chance to kill the shark fishman during this period, it would be great."
Pororo directly expressed his thoughts and wishes, so that the two of them don't need to care too much about his opinions and can do whatever they want.
Anyway, the most essential reason for him to come to the Dark Realm was just because he wanted to challenge himself.
The gift given by his cousin required him to abide by the requirements of accepting this gift.
It doesn't matter whether it is the periphery, the center or the core area.
Hearing Porro's words, Alka nodded.
He spread his hands directly, and a large map appeared in his hands. On it was a detailed map of the Dark Realm. Alka blinked his eyes, allowing the light spots on it to appear.
Then a stack of detailed maps of various islands or certain areas appeared in his hands.
First, some of the outer islands were selected. There were almost no treasures on these islands. Even if there were any left, most of them were white spots.
Now for Alka and others, white spots have no meaning. They are a complete waste of time.
Even if the white spots are incredible treasures with huge wealth, they have no means to transport them out, and even they themselves are difficult to protect.
Only by exploring those blue spots can they find things that can increase their strength.
Not to mention that there were not many materials in Alka's pocket ring, he needed to get some spell materials to make cards.
This was his means of fighting. The more cards he had, the greater his advantage in fighting.
He picked up the map and began to screen it one by one, clicking to analyze the blue dots on it to see if it was useful to him.
Sofia next to him also closed his eyes and began to meditate.
In the end, Alka chose the detailed maps of three islands as the first places to explore.
These three islands would become his targets mainly because there were enough blue dots on them.
The island with the most blue dots had a total of 8, and 6 of them were densely arranged together.
This was the island with the most blue dots Alka had seen at this stage.
The other two islands were because the blue dots on them revealed information.
Before entering the Dark Realm and during the period when he had not met his father, Alka had been looking at various materials on the ship.
At that time, the information provided by the church was very large and complicated, and many of them were expanded.
This also led to Alka knowing some information that he didn't know where it came from and whether it was meaningful.
And who knows if there will be one or two of these information that are so insignificant and related to some blue treasures.
As long as Alka knows, then he can naturally expand and supplement the information and know some additional information about the blue treasure points.
However, Alka did not choose the island with 8 points as the first target.
Instead, he chose an island with only two blue points and several white points.
Because one of the two blue points revealed the information he wanted.

[Treasure Information: The famous carver Halkett died when the darkness broke out, and all the things in the room were left inside. ]
The name Harket was just a name that Alka had randomly scanned in some information before.
I didn't expect there would be treasures about him.
And this man was an engraver, and he died suddenly, so there must be a lot of well-preserved spell materials left in his room.
This is exactly what he lacks now.
