Treasure Hunting System： The Ocean Conquerer

And we know that when the Treasure is destroyed, its divinity and essence merely return to the world. It’s just that through such a ritual, the true vessel and power are disrupted, allowing the Treasure’s energy to erupt in one go.

That is likewise a type of ritual, fundamentally no different from the one in the area we’re in now.

The only difference is that one is a one-time destructive ritual originating from a core explosion.

And we’re now in a place where a prolonged ritual is maintained, with the Treasure itself as the core.”

Upon hearing Lucilia’s words, Alka occasionally nodded. Some parts he could understand, and others he could only grasp the general idea, at best comprehending what Lucilia intended to convey.

As Lucilia continued her explanation, Alka started clearing his thoughts in his mind, trying to come up with a possible solution.

...

Just like this.

Alka and the others stayed in the camp for two whole days and nights.

Chadite had already completed the map of this area.

They mainly stayed here to exchange ideas and explore the possibilities of solving these problems.

Possessing so many Treasures, they could always find enough solutions; they just needed to approach it step by step.

Sitting inside the stone house.

Alka said, ”Let’s use the Heart of Vastva as the core to construct the entire problem’s solution.”

The Vastvan people inside the space of the Heart of Vastva had already moved out entirely when Alka left.

This meant that it was now completely empty, returning to its most primitive state.

Allowing Alka to truly begin using and utilizing this Treasure’s intended functions.

A small world under his control.

Hearing Alka’s words, Chadite and the others looked at him and asked, ”Do you already have a solution in mind?”

Alka nodded, ”I plan to directly excavate this area and throw it inside.”

A crystal appeared in Alka’s hand, precisely the Heart of Vastva.

”Excavate? The entire mountain range?” Chadite couldn’t help but frown and ask.

After all, even though Evil Spirits were most concentrated here, their range of action almost covered the entire mountain range. They were everywhere within the area.

Alka’s current strength aiming to throw the entire mountain range into the Heart of Vastva seemed somewhat exaggerated.

Hearing these words, Alka shook his head, ”Of course not, nothing that exaggerated.

I intend to excavate just this destroyed minefield, the most intense battlefield. Isn’t the core of the ritual conducted through the Treasure right here?”

Having said that, Alka looked at Lucilia.

Lucilia nodded, ”That’s right, I’ve observed over the past few days, and the ritual is confined to this area without expanding outward.”

Alka began to explain his idea and the entire process.

”Step 1, we first need to throw this area, along with those Evil Spirits, into the Heart of Vastva. It’s empty in there anyway.

This way, we can cut off the Abyssal aura and prevent further contamination. We just need to clean the Abyssal aura from the area thrown in.

Once that’s done, we can retrieve the Treasure.”

Alka briefly explained his idea and process, and it seemed very straightforward.

”Wait, how can we achieve this, making all the Evil Spirits go in together? How can we make them comply?

And how do we clear the remaining Abyssal aura?”

Chadite directly asked, highlighting the two most critical issues in the process.

”Right, that’s why I mentioned the entire process. We must first manage these two points. Let’s think about it together.”

”We can ask Lumina and the others for help; I’m sure they would be willing to offer some assistance. After all, our effort is something they need too, isn’t it?

Once our idea is practically feasible, they will definitely cooperate, they won’t refuse at that point.”

”...Alright, let’s begin then.”

Everyone immediately took action.

First, Alka would go to find Lumina and others to gather some information and see if help could be feasible.

Meanwhile, Lucilia and the others would stay in the camp, starting to research those Evil Spirits to see if there was any way to attract them.

To this, Lucilia seemed to have some confidence and ideas.

The rock horn, which had been with them all along, sat in the camp, unable to help, only watching Alka and the others busy at work.

If things didn’t work out, they could also leave and return to Return Town to seek help from Vastva’s researchers and Jason and the others.

They could even go to the front line, to places like the Demon-Defending Fortress, to seek assistance.

There, numerous strong individuals gathered, and someone would surely have a solution.

With the new map in hand.

Alka, like a phantom, walked past these Evil Spirits without attracting any attention and arrived at a collapsed cave.

From the surrounding areas and ruins, it was evident that this used to be a minefield.

And this was the entrance to the mine.

All around lay dense piles of bones, and some still had armor and weapons not completely corroded away.

Skipping over these bones, Alka arrived at the entrance of the mine.

A soul, seemingly possessing wisdom, emerged from the ground.

The soul’s appearance wore armor, holding a weapon, dressed as a soldier.

”Who are you? What are you doing here?”
