Treasure Hunting System： The Ocean Conquerer

At the moment of falling, everyone heard a shriek that seemed to pierce their souls.

Afterwards, the shrieks came one after another, emanating incessantly from the surrounding tall trees, piercing their souls.

In response to this situation, Chadite transformed into a full moon, emitting a flood of moonlight.

The spiritual protection immediately blocked these shrieks, and the moonlight seemed like an attack of some soul-purging energy, causing the trees to shake wildly, allowing them to feel their pain through the intensity of the shaking.

Clearly, these trees were not entities with souls but rather some kind of creatures existing on a spiritual level.

Maintaining the moonlight like this, everyone swiftly crossed the forest.

The trees around continued to shake constantly as they moved along, appearing as if dead once illuminated by the moonlight.

Fortunately, despite the forest’s vastness, it only took them less than half a day to pass through the forest, emerging to lands that truly appeared to be corrupted by the Abyss.

Once they exited, Alka directly controlled the mirror shard to create something like a magic carpet, rapidly carrying everyone forward.

...

After roughly ten days of switching between walking and flying.

They are finally nearing their destination.

”Comparing the maps, the treasure is likely in the territory of an alien race. In a mountain range.” Chadite said after comparing the two maps in his hands for a while.

”No problem, any alien race marked on the map is at least not hostile to humans. They might even help the front lines, we just need not to offend them,” Alka said, suddenly noticing Chadite’s expression turning serious.

Seeing such an expression, everyone immediately became alert, as such a look meant another demon attack was approaching.

Sure enough, the ground vibrated. Alka immediately used the Earth Card, stomping down onto the ground.

The land in front of them cracked open, then shook as if in a tremor. From the cracks emerged demon after demon, some of them showing large wounds from squeezing and collisions.

Clearly, Alka’s recent attack caused considerable damage to them.

Looking at these demons in front, Alka blinked his eyes.

There were only 11 in total, with only three reaching the Sixth Stage in strength.

”Persistent ghosts, let’s use your complete death to warn your damn kin,” Alka said loudly to everyone.

”Capture them all alive.”

Upon hearing this, although they didn’t understand why, everyone complied immediately.

Chadite waved his hand, and a miniature moon appeared above everyone.

Then his speed increased, transforming into a white light, crashing into one demon and slamming it into the ground.

Moonlight condensed into spears pierced through the demons and pinned them to the ground.

Alka dragged one demon into the Dream Realm through the mist, then immobilized it and sealed it as an ice block.

As his Dream Realm began to connect with this area, Alka’s Dream Power grew stronger.

Even with preparations, they would still be dragged into the Dream Realm for a deep sleep.

Various musical sounds rang out, Pororo’s gray lightning began dismembering the demons’ limbs.

Dealing with these demons, Alka and his team already had sufficient experience; each could be considered an expert demon hunter.

They were familiar with the traits, strengths, and weaknesses of the demons’ distinctive races.

Because as Vastva people appeared in the outside world, they also began constructing laboratories, including those focused on demon-related endeavors.

Their research was not out of curiosity about the demons’ power; it focused more on what kind of attacks caused them greater harm.

Except for one that Chadite accidentally killed without controlling his strength, the other 10 demons were controlled using various methods.

”Why capture them alive? Are you going to send them into the space?” Chadite asked from the side.

Only when they needed samples would they capture demons alive; otherwise, they would directly kill them to extract materials.

They didn’t even bother to keep talking to these demons.

After all, these demons might not truly die.

Upon hearing this, Alka smiled: ”It’s to ensure they are completely dead.”

”Completely dead?”

”Dragged into the Dream Realm?” Lucilia responded immediately.

Alka smiled, then nodded his head.

Softly snapping his fingers, their surroundings flipped into the mirror’s inverse space.

Then Alka gently waved, and the mist began to envelop the entire Dream Realm space.

With the mist surrounding, it increasingly resembled a world within the Dream Realm.

A large fog creature, reminiscent of a wolf with only a wolf head and floating wolf claws, appeared in the space.

This wolf-like fog creature was at the Sixth Stage in prowess.

Seeing Alka, it immediately lowered its head.

”Your Majesty,” came a voice from its soul.

Alka nodded: ”Take these demons into the furnace to let them become food for rebirth.”

Looking at these demons, the fog-like white wolf immediately nodded.

Then more fog creatures surged into the space.

But it seemed only one Sixth Stage fog creature could be accommodated; the rest were Fifth Stage.

Together they bound and restrained the demons, then disappeared from that space.

As these demons vanished, Alka immediately returned the dream to reality, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

”It’s still somewhat too challenging.”

Despite saying this, Alka showed a smile.
