Chapter 102: Edward’s Treasure (1)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When they set sail, they were penniless, but now, on their way back, they were wealthy beyond imagination.

...

They had amassed over 40,000 units of crystals. If other players were to find out, they would surely be envious.

The Hero Altar, Crystal Devices, and Alice’s unit talent tree required only around 10,000 units of crystals in total. With the extra 30,000 units, they had various options, such as trading them for other resources or keeping them as strategic reserves.

Calculating the time, Raymond had probably finished preparing the first batch of goods for the trade with the Crown of the Ocean and was ready to set off. If they acted quickly, he might already be on his way to the New Moon Islands.

Perhaps they could also use the surplus crystals for trading, exchanging them for other advanced resources like Mithril or Adamantium. They had multiple uses.

In addition to the crystals, they obtained two treasures from the mystic realm —the Mana Pendant and the Strength Talisman. Both were 4-star treasures and incredibly valuable.

They also acquired three core units for recruiting troops—the Tidal Sea Spirit and the Deep Sea Roamer. Even in the outside world, these two units were extremely rare and highly sought after.

Lastly, there was the Tidal Lord class, which granted Ji Chen immense magical power, making him the most powerful spellcaster in his territory. With a wave of his hand, he could conjure storms and raging waves.

It had been eight or nine days since they left the sea.

The food reserves in the territory could last for 20 days, so there was still plenty of time.

Ji Chen thought about it and took out a map from his backpack.

[Treasure Map]

[Level: 2 stars]

[Effect: Records the location of the treasure buried by a great pirate named Edward.]

[Do you want my treasure? Go find it! I put all my treasures there]

The treasure map had been caught while fishing in the sea. Since he hadn’t gone out to sea for a while, it was temporarily kept in the backpack, gathering dust.

With plenty of time on hand, it was a perfect opportunity to search for the treasure.

The map marked an unknown island, but the overall depiction was quite vague. They could only vaguely recognize that the island was located in the Western Central Ocean, without any other useful clues.

If other players had obtained the map, they would have been completely confused.

But Ji Chen was not an ordinary person. Ever since he had obtained the map, he had a faint feeling that he would be able to find this place.

He couldn’t quite explain the reason behind this strange feeling.

After much thought, he had a hunch that it might have been a hidden effect of his Lord’s talent.

Ji Chen didn’t dwell on it too much and quickly let go of the matter.

As someone favored by the Mother Ocean, was it strange for him to have such a peculiar ability?

He attributed it to quantum mechanics.

With the general direction determined, the three-ship fleet, led by the New Moon, began to sail at full speed.

The journey was extremely dull.

Bored out of his mind, Ji Chen took some time to study the cannons on the pirate ship.

They were not much different from the cannons in the Blue Star Navigation Era, using solid iron projectiles and gunpowder for ignition.

In terms of firepower, these cannons couldn’t even match the several water arrows of the Sea Pixies. However, their superior range allowed them to be widely installed on warships.

But this world was not limited to such low-level cannons. It was rumored that the kingdoms and duchies on the mainland were equipped with alchemical cannons and magic energy cannons with even more terrifying destructive power.

However, these cannons were expensive to produce and strictly regulated, so there weren’t many warships equipped with alchemical cannons in the Central Ocean. Only the main fleets of kingdoms and duchies would have them.

Leaving the Silver Islands, the three warships hoisted white sails, dismantling their flashy decorations, and disguising themselves as ordinary merchant ships.

On that morning, as they sailed along the route, they suddenly spotted a convoy of two ships on the horizon.

The ships had a deep draught, indicating they were heavily laden with cargo, and there were no escort vessels around them.

Upon seeing this scene, Ji Chen felt elated.

He immediately decided to carry out the plundering plan.

“What are those? They’re not just ships, they’re fat lambs!”

So, he ordered the three warships to scatter and raised the black skull sails to give chase.

The two merchant ships, upon seeing three fully armed pirate ships suddenly appear, panicked, and quickly changed direction to escape.

But how could the heavily loaded merchant ships compare to the powerful pirate ships?

They were soon caught up and sandwiched between the three pirate ships.

Initially, the guards on the ships considered putting up a desperate fight, but upon seeing the dense array of cannons protruding from the pirate ships, they immediately lost their will to resist and brought the merchant ships to a stop.

Everyone on board gathered on the deck voluntarily, crouching down obediently.

With the sound of several grappling hooks latching onto the ship’s sides, over a hundred pirates boarded the merchant ship’s deck, completely taking control of the situation.

As they looked around at the fierce and intimidating pirates, each member of the merchant convoy’s guards and sailors felt uneasy.

They knew that their cargo was unlikely to be spared today. They could only hope to be spared with their lives.

But as they noticed the sails of these pirate ships, bearing the infamous Black Skull Pirate Group insignia, they had heard that this group never left survivors. They looted and killed without mercy.

In an instant, their foreheads were covered in sweat, and their faces turned pale.

However, at that moment, they suddenly saw all the pirates bowing their heads in reverence..
