Treasure Hunting System： The Ocean Conquerer

Looking at the man in front of him wearing a helmet and mask, only his eyes and lips slightly visible, Alka nodded.

”That’s right, we’ve just arrived here and are not very familiar with this place yet.”

At this moment, it seemed the priest behind had finished his treatment and walked over towards them.

After walking over, he patted the soldier’s shoulder and then stood in front of Alka and the others.

”I am Purvis, a Marching Priest of the Holy Mother Church.”

”Alka, captain of the Compass Eye.” Alka looked at him and shook his hand as he spoke.

The priest in front had a strength about the Middle Tier of the Fourth Stage and didn’t possess a Treasure, but that book seemed to be a Holy Artifact.

For followers of the Holy Mother, it would also be considered a Treasure.

”Alka? Compass Eye... I seem to have heard this name somewhere.” The priest in front of them couldn’t help but ponder after hearing Alka’s introduction.

Then he seemed to remember: ”I remembered, I received news months ago that a Saint and his team would be coming here. That must be you.”

”Unless there is another Alka, then it should be me.” Alka said with a smile.

”Excuse me, please follow me.”

Purvis said as he led Akka and the others into the fortress-like interior of the church, still facing the prayer hall.

But now the somewhat narrow prayer hall seemed empty, so Purvis casually found a place for Alka and the others to sit.

”This is Giant Mountain Port, considered the gateway between the World Scar and the outside world, it’s relatively safe here.”

As he spoke, a map appeared in his hand.

”I don’t have an extra map to give you, but you can take a look at this one.” He said as he handed it over.

Alka took the map he handed over.

This map was drawn quite clearly and straightforwardly.

The shape of the World Scar resembled a very irregular rhombus. In the center of the rhombus was a long gap that extended all the way overseas.

Alka looked at the divisions on the map.

The area occupied by the demons is the central gap of the rhombus and the direction it extends.

While the three sides have been occupied by the Order Faction, making the gap’s outlet the demons’ only connection to the outside.

Outside, there is also a sea route, likely the one they just passed, allowing for rapid navigation.

These sea currents, like blood vessels, spread around the sea, but you can see the waterways almost encircle the demons’ outlet.

Obviously, this is to prevent demon ships from carrying demons away from this area, and combined with the extreme weather Akka and the others encountered outside, it’s certain these weather conditions also restrict demons’ departures.

Looking at the map, Alka couldn’t help but blink.

Is this map considered a world map or an area map?

Thinking this way, Alka blinked again and looked at the map.

It’s not a world map, but rather a regional map.

One light after another displayed in front of Alka.

Densely packed, it almost completely covered the mainland, mainly because this mainland is vast in area, while the scale of the map Alka holds is too small.

So it seems like the entire map is filled with Treasures.

The scattered golden lights totaled over hundreds.

Alka even saw more than a dozen orange pillars of light.

And above them, Alka discovered a total of six red pillars of light.

Four of them were within the demons’ territory.

Just as previously known, this area destroyed by demons once was a top force in the Empire, leaving behind a vast inheritance throughout the area after its destruction.

Over the years, it hasn’t been fully scavenged, simply because this place is indeed too dangerous.

”This map isn’t the latest edition, it’s from 10 years ago, some areas have also changed now, but the terrain hasn’t changed much, so just make do.”

Purvis explained beside him for a couple of sentences.

Overall, the demons occupy roughly one-third of the mainland’s power.

But it seems that the Alliance where the Four Gods Church is also hasn’t occupied the other 2/3, as some areas are occupied by other unknown forces.

Alka looked at the protection around the demons, where the vicinity is densely packed with various fortress names.

The human side has almost built a fortress wall there, blocking the demons firmly in the gap, preventing them from rushing out and endangering the entire world.

After understanding this area, Alka put away the map and handed it back to Purvis.

”Thank you.”
