Chapter 266: Conch

Chapter 266: Conch

Splash! The clear sound of flowing water could be heard.

Whirlpools formed on the square one after another, and the people, bonfires, and even the offerings that gathered on the square also collapsed.

When the water surface returned to calm, the bustling square that was previously filled with people had disappeared, and the seawater in the air had once again filled up the place. The world had returned to the deserted underwater world that was filled with aquatic plants.

Looking at the deserted world in front of her, Nina said, “Oh, it’s back again!”

Ding! At this moment, a clear sound rang out, like the sound of a bell. The sound came from the main hall in front.

Nina asked, “Heath, did you hear that? There seems to be a sound inside?”

Heath nodded.

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

After passing through the long stone steps, Heath and Nina went up to the observation platform and then entered the hall through the door.

The style of the hall was not much different from the ancient buildings that Heath had come into contact with before. They were all tall and large wavy stone pillars, magnificent murals covered the front walls, giant stone statues that could be seen everywhere, and so on, these seemed to have been popular during that period.

“Siren. The temple of the Sea God!”

At this moment, Nina suddenly pointed at a stone sculpture in front of her.

The stone sculpture was of a young woman, standing barefoot on the base, holding a pearl in both hands. The woman’s appearance was exactly the same as the woman with the heraldry on the stone slab at the entrance.

Heath glanced around the great hall, then looked at the stone sculpture in front of him. He asked in confusion, “Do these ancient gods like to do personal worship so much? It seems that every god likes to build these things for themselves.”

He had seen similar temples in the Twilight Ruins before.

Nina nodded. “Indeed. Each of the 16 Ancient Gods has more than one temple in their territory. Even now, there are still many places that worship them.”

Heath raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, “Why is that?”

Nina shook her head. “I don’t know. Most of the documents related to that era have been lost. Maybe the gods like it this way. After all, everyone has vanity, right?”

Heath frowned. He felt that this matter was not as simple as vanity. It was reasonable for one or two people to do something like personal worship, but for more than a dozen gods to do it, it was a bit puzzling.

“Eh? Look, what is that?”

At this moment, Nina seemed to have noticed something and quickly floated in a direction.

In front of them was a long corridor. Vaguely, there seemed to be something flashing in the darkness at the end of the corridor.

Heath followed Nina Forward. After passing through the corridor, they came to an empty hall. The moment they saw the interior of the hall, their eyes lit up.

“Wow!”

The hall was about the size of a basketball court. In the middle of the hall, there were a few large wooden chests. The treasure chests were open. Inside were piles of colorful Magic Gems, piles of magic gold coins, various kinds of tools, and so on.

And here, Heath also knew where the sound came from.

It was one of the treasure chests. Inside it was a pendulum-like tool. As the water flowed, one of the pendulum hammers struck the shelf behind it.

“Haha, it’s a treasure chest!”

Nina shouted and flew straight towards the treasure chest.

However, before she flew two meters, an invisible force suddenly acted on her body and bound her on the spot.

Nina turned her head and frowned. “What are you doing?”

What forced her to stop was other than the spiritual connection between her and Heath.

Heath said, “There will always be an evil dragon guarding in front of the treasure. Hasn’t your teacher told you this before?”

Standing in the same place, he looked at the treasure chest in front of him. Heath casually waved his hand and a gold coin appeared in his hand. He threw the gold coin in the direction of the treasure chest from a distance.

Whoosh — Ding!

The gold coin flew out like a bullet, passing through the water and bringing up a long stream of water. It then hit the treasure chest with a ding sound and then slowly fell to the ground.

The trap that he had expected did not happen. The gold coin steadily landed on the floor.

Heath then tried a few more times from different angles. It was the same. Obviously, there was no physical trap here.

What about a spiritual one?

Hiding a curse on the treasure chest to stimulate a greedy person was a common trap.

So Heath extended his spiritual tentacle to the treasure chest and checked it, but he still couldn’t find any trace of curses.

‘No?’

Although it was strange, there were no protective measures around the treasure chest.

Nina asked, “How is it? Did you find any traps?”

Heath shook his head. “No.”

After saying that, he walked forward. Along the way, Heath was still vigilant and ready to deal with any traps. However, when he arrived in front of the treasure chest, even after he had already taken the items in the treasure chest into his hands, nothing happened in the surroundings. Only then did Heath believe that there were no traps or anything like that.

“Wow, Heath, we’re rich!”

“Oh my god, there are so many Magic Gems! Is this a Whale-Like Conch? I’ve only seen one specimen in my teacher’s office before, and is this a jellyfish…”

As they circled around the treasure chest, Nina let out a series of exclamations.

It was not entirely her fault for not being able to keep her cool, but the things in the private room were really too tempting.

Piles of Magic Gems, low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, filled several large boxes. Just these Magic Gems alone would probably be worth no less than ten million Magic Stones.

Other than that, there were also many very precious materials.

For example, there was a blue-patterned conch inside. The shape of the pattern was very unique, and the outer layer was covered with white particles. The appearance was very unique.

This was a Whale-Like Conch, a strange creature from the bottom of the sea.

When this kind of conch blew, it would emit a sound similar to that of a whale. That sound had an irresistible magic to whale-type marine creatures. After processing, it could become a Wizard tool that targeted whale-type marine creatures. It could control them.

Whale-type marine creatures were at the top of the food chain in the sea. Some powerful whales even had the strength of high-level Wizards.

Controlling the whale-like sea creatures was equivalent to controlling more than half of the ocean. From this, it could be seen how powerful this kind of conch was.

However, it was precisely because of this characteristic that Wizards liked to use it to make sea-like Wizard tools. After the Wizards’ wanton hunting, this kind of conch, which was originally not in large numbers, became even rarer.

Nowadays, the Whale-Like Conches were almost extinct. Any well-preserved Whale-Like Conch could be sold on the market for millions of Magic Stones.

‘My luck is here. I really can’t stop it!’

Feeling delighted, Heath transferred the coefficient of the treasure chest in front of him into the spatial pocket.

However, just as he put the last treasure chest into the spatial pocket, the seawater in front of him suddenly stirred up a layer of ripples, and the same elemental fluctuations came from the seawater.

At the same time, a new scene appeared in the seawater….
