Lord Fang Ka withdrew his hand from Xia Lin's head, then began to observe the players together with Xia Lin through the Eye of Darkness.

It's undeniable that the underwater area free from the invasion of the Four Great Intelligent Races of the Ocean is indeed quite safe.

All the way, no abnormal situations appeared, the Magic Array of Hydraulic Surge was steadily pushing the coffin forward.

The merfolk's agility in the seabed was unparalleled, controlling the coffin's direction without the slightest deviation.

After the journey progressed quite a bit, Fang Ka turned to look at Noel, lying half-awake on the distant reef.

"Noel, time to work."

Upon hearing Fang Ka's call, Noel yawned broadly, her small mouth open wide enough to fit an egg.

She raised both her hands, stretched vigorously, then straightened up and looked at Fang Ka: "Eh? Are we going out now?"

Xia Lin summoned the Nightmare Beast: "Yes, Noel, ride the Nightmare Beast to Sonam's place, capture him to that island, and have him open the gate for Lord Fang Ka's subordinates."

"Alright, got it." Noel nodded, then slapped her tail on the reef, using the momentum to leap several meters high, instantly jumping onto the approaching Nightmare Beast.

Riding the Nightmare Beast, she flew towards the seaside house where Sonam resides.

Seeing this, Fang Ka also hurried to the Ancient Castle to visit the Underground Library to control the Magic Array and open an exit.

"Hey! Whoever's in there, we're heading out now." Noel shouted towards the house as she rode the Nightmare Beast to the seaside house.

Sonam, who was contemplating his future inside, shivered instinctively upon hearing Noel's loud call.

The image of Noel unleashing her power and almost knocking him half-dead was still vivid in his mind.

Even though it was a sneak attack by Noel at the time, her later duel with those two High Tier Knights was not a sneak attack, but rather a head-on battle.

Sonam asked himself, he couldn't possibly handle the two High Tier Knights beside him alone.

Only by controlling them with Alchemy Poison could he feel at ease.

He took a deep breath and quickly stuck his head out of the nearby window, revealing a flattering smile: "Eh? It's Lady Noel? I didn't know you were calling for me?"

Noel looked at Sonam impatiently: "Yes, hurry up and come out, go to the tail of the Nightmare Beast, follow me to open the entrance to your island's Defense Magic Array."

She was almost asleep, suddenly being called to work naturally made her quite unhappy.

Not daring to vent her anger on Xia Lin and Fang Ka, she naturally showed no good face to Sonam.

Sonam quickly nodded: "Eh, okay, I'm coming now."

Sonam quickly withdrew his head from the window and ran outside.

Outside the house, his petite figure struggled to climb onto the back of the Nightmare Beast, then swiftly gave Noel space, moving to the rear end of the Nightmare Beast and settling down.

Sitting atop the neck of the Nightmare Beast, Noel cast a sidelong glance at Sonam with the corner of her eye, then steered the Nightmare Beast to fly ahead.

Reaching the designated location, she immediately used Dark Speech to speak to Fang Ka: "Lord Fang Ka, I'm here."

Fang Ka had already returned to the Ancient Castle, heading towards the Underground Library, and upon hearing the words, responded immediately: "Okay, wait a moment."

Very quickly, Fang Ka arrived at the Underground Library to start operating the Magic Array, opening a small gap.

Noel saw a small opening appear in the black mist over the sea surface ahead, and quickly maneuvered the Nightmare Beast to fly out through it.

Just after flying out, the black mist restored itself as before.

Fang Ka held the main body of the Eye of Darkness, carefully observing the two scenes on it, one near the Nightmare Beast and another near the coffin.

Fang Ka's calculation of the journey was very precise.

The players arrived at the island alongside the coffin, just as Noel conveniently landed on the island riding the Nightmare Beast.

According to the information read by Xia Lin from Sonam's memory, there is a hidden location on the island with a mechanism.

Activating the mechanism will expose a gap in the Anshui Stone there, directly reaching the underground Defense Magic Array.

Sonam left this feature when designing the island, planning for his future access when heading to Ten Mother Islands.

Unfortunately, he hadn't used it yet before Lord Fang Ka realized the anomaly of the island and subsequently bored a hole at the seabed leading directly to the Defense Magic Array inside.

Because Sonam's Waterproof Clothing was completely damaged, Fang Ka didn't have such an alchemical product either, hence he planned for Sonam to open the normal entrance from above.

Rather than entering through those two tunnels that were drilled from the seabed.

After all, Sonam is a pure Mage and not proficient in water.

Without Waterproof Clothing, going to those tunnels and from inside opening an entrance to the Defense Magic Array would probably suffocate Sonam.

Therefore, the normal entrance above is more suitable, and as for the holes bored from the seabed, Fang Ka plans to let the Merfolk accompanying the players repair them, restoring them to their original state.

All players have a set of Low Tier Water Enchantment armor, navigating water was quite convenient for them, climbing from the seabed to the island was rather easy.

Under the guidance of Tina and several Merfolk, the players soon landed on the island.

At this point, the mechanism had been activated, with Sonam and Noel waiting at the entrance.

Seeing the players approaching, Noel tilted her head slightly indicating to Sonam.

Sonam grasped the hint immediately and stepped into the mechanism entrance, while Noel followed closely behind, keeping her eyes fixed on Sonam.

Noel can ensure that if Sonam shows the slightest odd behavior, she can incapacitate him instantly.

The players behind then followed Tina's instruction, queuing up orderly to enter the mechanism entrance one by one.

Mr. Zhou surveyed the surroundings while inquiring behind him to Grandpa Qian of Bone-Touching: "Mr. Qian, it appears that this Goblin Dungeon is within this island?"

Grandpa Qian nodded slightly: "Hmm, it seems so? But if it really is inside this island, how large could it be? Anyhow, this island looks quite sizable."

Mr. Zhou eyed Sonam, who was being closely watched by Noel in front: "That green little man, we never really saw him on the island before."

"Judging by his appearance, could he be some sort of goblin? Having a connection with this Goblin Dungeon?"

"If that's the case, there are several possibilities."

"One possibility is that the game's main storyline is progressing, another is a game side quest starting, and another is an authenticity element intentionally introducing a guide character for this dungeon."

"Not sure which one it is, if it's the first two, this task might be quite challenging for us."

At this juncture, Sonam halted because in front was the earth-colored barrier, the Defensive Magic Array 'Wall of the Brahma Land'.
