Treasure Hunting System： The Ocean Conquerer

If viewed with a more rigorous attitude, Simon actually possesses two treasures.

One is that treasure index finger capable of manipulating mechanical constructs, even transforming parts of flesh into machinery.

The other is the Hand of Precision completely taken as his right forearm, which Alka initially acquired from the Holy Machine Church as a Holy Artifact.

Only through the Church’s rituals can it be transformed into a treasure usable solely by its members.

Though it’s unclear what kind of exchange Simon had with the Church, at least since arriving at Gemini Island, the Hand of Precision remains under Simon’s control.

The Church has not reclaimed it, evidently consenting for Simon to use this Holy Artifact.

Overall, even after being upgraded into a treasure, this Holy Artifact doesn’t significantly enhance Simon.

The Holy Artifact essentially serves as an auxiliary treasure, not a complete treasure.

If Alka and they couldn’t understand the fundamental difference between a Holy Artifact and a treasure before,

now they can clearly articulate that the essence between a Holy Artifact and a treasure is one being genuinely transformed from Divine Essence.

The other item can only be said to use Divine Power, after being deeply imbued with it, barely reaching treasure level.

The so-called barely reaching treasure level mainly reflects its capability, in certain conditions, to elevate a few people to become touchers.

Overall, it still relies on Divine Power.

According to their understanding, this touch must also be a Divine believer.

So strictly speaking, Simon can be considered to have mastered one and a half treasures.

But he happens to be a member of the Holy Machine Church and its unique profession – a Mechanic.

Both treasures can offer him strong support.

When Alka handed over the Star River, he extended his hand.

The metallic palm took the ring.

He looked at his hands, deliberating, and then wore it on his left hand.

His entire left hand was cut off at the root, entirely relying on the treasure index finger to construct a metal substitute.

His right arm similarly cut from the forearm, using the Hand of Precision to replace the forearm and hand.

The treasure index finger also replaced the index finger from the Hand of Precision.

So after pondering, he wore the ring on the mechanical finger of his left hand.

In the eyes of all, the ring firmly sat on his left hand.

As it was worn on the finger, strands of Magic Power emanating from the mechanical arm spread, then flowed into the ring flowing with the Star River.

The Star River emitted faint starlight.

And then suddenly.

With the clattering sound of parts scattering.

Simon’s entire left arm immediately shattered into fragmented metal parts, all falling to the floor. Even his right arm’s Hand of Precision and the index finger were all removed one by one, landing on the deck.

Simon suddenly transformed into a state of complete left arm loss, leaving only the upper arm of the right arm.

Looking at the scene, Simon shrugged optimistically and said somewhat helplessly, ”Seems like this treasure clearly doesn’t suit me.”

Alka awkwardly squatted down, picking up the ring from the broken parts.

Then took up the treasure index finger and the Hand of Precision, aligning them to Simon’s right arm.

Without the interference from the Star River, the Hand of Precision swiftly fitted, connecting with the index finger. Instantly the mechanical parts on the ground flew up, linking the severed joint of the left arm, quickly spreading downward.

A brand new left arm was reconstructed.

”Looks like I’ll have to wear it for a while.” Alka said, putting the ring back on his hand.

The reason he didn’t want to wear the Star River on his hand was that he couldn’t use the most critical ability of the Dream Catcher.

Which was the substitute in the Dream Realm.

Although he rarely used such an ability in current battles, you cannot deny it is indeed a very practical one in battle.

Able to substitute him in the current battle phase to reveal enemy’s abilities.

Especially now with the enemies Alka encounters, most possessing treasures. Who knows if they might have some powerful treasure, causing massive casualties if misunderstood initially.

But with the Star River, blocking the use of the other two treasures makes it very difficult to do so.

Since it doesn’t work, Alka doesn’t think about it anymore, turns and asked Jason: ”How’s the situation around lately?”

Hearing this, Jason just shrugged slightly helplessly, saying: ”What else, those cultists have really exhausted us.

Every day new cultists and pirates are killed, but they find joy in it.

Collecting information from Jilenna’s side suggests they’re harassing us to mask their true purpose. Preparing for a major event.”

”Major event? Any leads?” Alka asked, frowning.

Recently while deep in sleep within the Dream Realm, he always sensed bad feelings.

As he completely becomes one of the Dream Kings in the Dream Realm, he won’t ignore any feelings within the Dream Realm.

Those are forewarnings brought by fate.

Dreams are always closely linked to elements like future, divination, and prophecy.
