Chapter 227 Lord of Libra

As time went by, the human camp created by Coleman became more and more prosperous.

However, the vastness of this island was obviously beyond everyone's imagination.

The settlements created by the humans who drifted here were far more than just Coleman's.

In another part of the island, several other camps were also thriving.

Among them, the camp created by Captain Velos of the Ural Kingdom Navy was the largest.

After all, he was a regular soldier of the kingdom, and his credibility was second only to Coleman, the world councilor.

·······

"Colonel, the population of the camp has reached 2,000."

"Among them, there are 153 extraordinary people and 19 controllers."

"Among them, those with special identities are the candidates and the [Executioners]."

"According to the information we have now, this island is the legendary Ascension Island, and it was also the place selected by the top ten super magic schools for the joint examination 50 years ago."

Inside a broken warship, Velos, with a frown on his face, was listening to the report of his subordinates.

He didn't expect that it was just an ordinary "anti-smuggling" and he would fall into the legendary Ascension Island.

Damn Ji Le Dao, if the route they chose was not so unlucky, how could he suffer such a disaster?

I just hope these guys will be more unlucky, and it would be best if they all die.

"Is the information from those candidates accurate?"

"The floating city that crashed here from the Ten Super Spell Academy, is the system really activated?"

As a regular navy of the kingdom, Velos is the person who knows the small floating city best.

Because many of the technologies used in the floating city are all derived from the [Aircraft Carrier].

It can even be said that the small floating city is a reduced version of the aircraft carrier.

Those forces that are not qualified to build aircraft carriers will spend their time to build small floating cities first for technical verification.

Although the Ten Super Spell Academy is powerful, it is not allowed to build aircraft carriers.

After all, the purpose of creating the Spell Academy is to promote new laws, not to start a war.

Before overturning the ban of the World Government, the ten super magic schools can only focus on floating cities.

A small floating city with a diameter of only 500 meters can no longer satisfy their ambitions.

They have played with various medium and large floating cities.

But even as powerful as the ten super magic schools, small floating cities cannot be discarded casually.

When the Yunshan floating city fell to Shengxian Island, it was quite a sensation in the other world.

What puzzled Velos was that 50 years had passed, and the fallen Yunshan had not been recovered.

Could it be that the ten super magic schools still cannot lock Shengxian Island?

Or are they afraid of something and dare not come in again?

······

"Lord Velos, the news is absolutely true."

"The floating city's system has indeed been restarted, and judging from the situation, there seems to be a plan to restart the joint examination."

"But who did it and how did they do it? This is a big question."

"Although the system has not issued any new instructions, there will definitely be new changes in the future."

"I think someone is definitely using those candidates as pawns to achieve a certain goal."

"Could the person who restarted the system be the fallen scholar that the [Executioners] are looking for?"

"With Albert's erudition, he may not be able to break through the defense of the floating city."

When the officers under him mentioned the executioners, they deliberately lowered their voices.

Those guys wrapped in tins are really scary.

This is not only because of their strength, but more importantly, their identities.

They belong to the ninth department of [Sword of Judgment] under the World Government, which is responsible for [Scholars] affairs.

"Albert, the fallen scholar?"

"If he breaks through the defense system of the floating city, it will be troublesome."

"But it doesn't feel like that. Compared with outsiders like us, I am more worried that some existences on the Ascension Island have taken control of the floating city."

"Try to meet the demands of those executioners. But our focus should still be on searching for those guys in the Paradise Road."

"We must not let them leave the Ascension Island alive!"

······

It is not necessary. No kingdom wants to deal with the Sword of Judgment.

But there is no way. Soon after Velos established the camp, those tin cans came to the door.

After they showed their identities, they asked Velos to help search for Albert, the fallen scholar.

Of course, Velos did not dare to refuse. After all, their Ural Kingdom is still full of black accounts.

If they offended the people of the Sword of Judgment, they would have to bleed heavily without them fabricating charges.

But Velos just did his best. After all, they were not directly subordinate to him, so giving him face was already very good.

The bastards in the Paradise Road haven't been dealt with yet, and another fallen scholar Albert has appeared. Velos feels that his days on the deserted island will be busy.

God knows how many guys have been stranded on the deserted island this time. I hope there will be no more trouble.

······

"Mr. Albert, you are worthy of being a respected scholar."

"If you hadn't helped us, we would have been eaten by those fungi."

"What the hell is this Shengxian Island? There are even ancient fungi that can devour spiritual energy."

In another camp, a dozen controllers admired him extremely and looked at Albert gratefully.

At this time, he was freed from the shackles of the chains, and his mental state was unexpectedly high.

"Don't take it lightly, I only temporarily suppressed the archaea parasitic in your body."

"This thing is a type of fungi I have never seen before. If we want to completely kill them, we need more research time."

"During this period, please try not to use your psychic powers."

"I need more experimental equipment, and I need more archaeal samples."

"The most important thing is that you must clearly explain the origin of that ancient corpse."

"Does it come from those foreign shipwrecks, or does it come from Shengxian Island."

"Only by thoroughly understanding its living environment can I prescribe the right medicine."

Albert now resembled a mad scientist trapped in research mode.

He has been sleepless for a week, and it is through his madness that those weird archaea can be suppressed.

It is no exaggeration to say that Albert is the savior of all humans in the camp.

This is more than 1,300 lives, including 14 controllers.

······

"Mr. Albert, everything you need, we will prepare as soon as possible."

"If you hadn't pinpointed the source of the archaea, we never would have thought that the problem would have appeared on that ancient corpse."

"To be honest, we don't know where the body came from?"

"That body was found from the bottom of the sea by the men responsible for searching for various supplies."

"They discovered an ancient coffin filled with treasures and brought it ashore out of greed."

"But there are so many shipwrecks around, not just the ones we were involved in this time, but we even found ancient sailing ships from thousands of years ago."

“It’s impossible to find out where this ancient coffin came from.”

"The only thing we can be sure of now is that the ancient coffin has been in the sea for a long time and was not brought in by us this time."

More than a dozen controllers looked helpless. They thought they were unlucky enough to end up on a deserted island inexplicably.

But what was even more unfortunate was that as soon as they started to save themselves and the camp was on the right track, a great plague broke out.

No matter ordinary people, extraordinary people, or those in control, they are all affected.

In just three days, hundreds of ordinary people were turned into black charcoal.

It is truly carbonized and looks like it was just dug out of a pile of coal that has been buried for millions of years.

They tried all kinds of methods, but nothing could stop the spread and worsening of the disease.

Fortunately, fate finally favored them once.

Just when they were in complete despair, Albert walked out of the dense forest with the setting sun.

It was through this person's efforts that they realized that what the camp was suffering from was not a plague, but some extremely terrifying bacteria.

Once those mysterious archaea parasitize a living body, they will completely fuse.

Not even spiritual beings can detect their existence.

The reason for this is that after those archaea merge with life, they will produce a magical power that confuses spirituality.

Only the scholar, whose own spirituality will never be affected, can see their existence.

It's a pity that these people have been parasitized by archaea for so long, but they don't even know what it looks like.

Albert is the only one who knows the true face of Archaea.

······

"Ancient shipwreck?"

"This is not surprising, since the news of the Immortal Medicine in Shengxian Island spread."

"From ancient times to the present, people have never stopped searching for immortals and medicine."

"The Immortal Island exists in the myths and legends of many countries."

"There are many ignorant kings of small countries who use all their national power to seek immortals overseas, and their destination is here."

"Anyway, no matter where that strange corpse came from, he must have been deliberately sunk to the bottom of the sea."

"Don't forget that these fungi are incredibly miraculous, but certain components in seawater can easily limit their spread and growth."

"But once it is exposed to the air, it will start to spread again. Once it parasitizes into a living body, it is no longer afraid of sea water."

"So even if this ancient coffin was brought by those outside seeking immortality, they would just put it in the sea water and drag it here."

"You are still too greedy. After all, it is human greed that has released them again."

What Albert did not point out was that the coffin should have been filled with seawater.

But in order to get the treasure, these greedy guys directly dragged the corpse out and left it on the shore to be exposed in the sun.

When the sea breeze blows, it would be strange if they were not parasitized.

Everyone present was speechless in response to Albert's accusation.

Because that's the truth.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. The camp was already a mixed bag and barely maintained order.

Not to mention that ordinary people are greedy for the treasures inlaid on the coffins. Even those in charge, after hearing that there is a magic medicine of immortality here, are not greedy?

Fortunately, Albert has no intention of continuing to stand on the moral high ground. After all, he himself is still a fallen scholar.

Of course, these guys in front of them definitely don't know his true identity.

Otherwise, they would never dare to take the potion prepared by Albert.

Anyone who deserves the word depraved cannot be considered a good person in the strict sense.

······

Of course, there are more than just a few human settlements on the beach.

After all, there are tens of thousands of people stranded on this deserted island.

Those settlements are just the largest.

In some small settlements, all kinds of human joys and sorrows are also staged.

"Miss Elena, the sun here is too strong and the sea breeze is too violent. Staying here for a long time will be harmful to your skin."

"You have another public concert in half a month."

On the warm beach, Elena looked at her agent speechlessly.

Given the current situation, will she hold a concert here in half a month?

If it weren't for her excellent communication skills and winning over a few noblemen on the Usmir, their lives would not be so comfortable now.

Even if they don't go to the sea to catch shrimps, they have to go to the jungle to pick fruits.

How can they sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor?

Elena's eyes swept over the three little girls who were digging holes on the beach to find food, with a look of compassion on her face.

Look, this is the end of "working", and their little hands are all worn out.

······

"Big sister, why can that woman bask in the sun while we have to work hard to find food."

Crescent Moon, holding the broken doll, looked at Elena with great envy. It was great that she didn't have to work.

"Hmph, that kind of woman won't have a good end!"

"I'm hungry, hurry up and find food!"

Crescent Moon was waving a toy scepter and supervising.

Among the three little girls, the only one who worked hard was Crescent Moon.

As for the eldest sister Wangyue, she was drawing.

Under her pen, Elena had turned into a skeleton.

And around the skeleton, there were countless people pointing and talking.

"That woman is about to die, and there are so many people around who hate her!"

"We have finally gotten rid of that evil woman, so of course we have to be self-reliant!"

Wangyue comforted Crescent Moon, who was working hard to dig a pit. After the latter was mentally balanced, she was more motivated.

A gust of wind blew, and the picture book in Wangyue's hand kept turning.

The picture was full of the tragic scenes of human death.

······

"Damn, what's going on?"

"I clearly feel that Lord Akit is nearby, but why can't I find him?"

Not far from the camp, three sneaky guys are spying.

Well, the three people who belong to the Skull and Bones Society can indeed be considered "ghosts".

"Amira, this is the fourth human camp we have been looking for."

"The sense here is the clearest, Lord Akit must have appeared."

"What is Lord Akit's current state?"

"We have chased him all the way from the Kingdom of Dikara to here, and we have clearly sensed Lord Akit's presence several times, so why can't we find him?"

Anas looked depressed and aggrieved.

Lord Akit is their direct superior. Without his protection, how dare they return to the headquarters?

So after their injuries were healed, they went to Mara Harbor again.

Sure enough, they found signs that Lord Akit had existed there.

Then they tracked him all the way and even chased him to the sea.

But no matter how hard they looked, they didn't find Lord Akitas on those ships.

Being homeless was already bad luck, and they didn't expect to end up on a deserted island.

But it wasn't the end, but the beginning of something even worse.

Because the place where they fell was a bit special, they actually fell directly on someone's grave.

As a result, the "master" was too hospitable, so they could only stay there temporarily.

······

"It's almost time, it's getting dark again."

"If we don't go back, we'll have to suffer again."

"This Ascension Island is so weird."

Dudley turned around and walked back, cursing. Amira and Ainas looked at each other helplessly, and then turned around and left.

Anyway, it has been confirmed that Lord Akitas has also been stranded on Ascension Island, so there is no need to rush.

As long as they spend time and are willing to work hard, they will eventually find Lord Akitas on this broken island.

At that time, they will definitely take Lord Akitas back to get back at their place.

Damn, their tree was robbed, otherwise why would they go back obediently?

Half an hour later, Amira and the others appeared in a huge underground palace.

······

"The way of heaven is fair, all things are equal, the law of heaven is equal, and there is no decrease or increase."

"Worship the great Lord of Libra, ······"

As soon as they entered the underground palace, the surging sound of chanting drowned them like a tide.

Fortunately, Amira and the others had been baptized for more than ten days and had already adapted to it.

Looking around, there were dense bronze figurines all over the underground palace.

The chanting sound came from their bodies.

These bronze figurines are no different from ordinary humans, the only special thing is their attire.

They are dressed in simple Taoist robes, which are completely different from the current era.

The most unique thing is the Dharma crown on the head of the bronze figurine.

They are shaped like a scale, well, that is the scale of the ancient times.

This crown is also called the Libra Crown, and only believers of the Lord of Libra can wear it.

"Why did you come back so early today, three of you?"

"Did you find the leader of your Skull and Bones Society?"

"Congratulations to you then."

The underground palace has three levels, and the outermost one is a bronze figurine.

After passing through the bronze figurines, there are offerings all over the ground.

Behind the sacrifices, there was a huge bronze gate. The legendary Lord of Libra was sleeping behind the bronze gate.

Poor Amira and the others were sent here as sacrifices.

Their Tongyou Tree was placed in the pile of sacrifices.

The one who greeted them at this time was a student from Youquan Spell Academy.

His hands were tied with chains and hung on a huge bronze tree.

There was also a student from Wushen Spell Academy who was also hung with chains, but this student had his eyes closed and had no intention of speaking.

"Gong Yuntian, thanks to you, we have hope of escaping."

"When Lord Akira arrives, don't say we are ruthless, we will definitely give you a quick death."

"You two have been hanging on the Libra Tree for so many years, and it's time to rest in peace."

Amira was just worried about where to vent her anger, so she immediately yelled at Gong Yuntian who was hanging on the bronze tree.

Damn, they were caught by these two guys on the tree.

"Haha, then I have to thank you."

"Actually, it's good for us to be together, so lively."

Gong Yuntian looked at Amira and the others with a smile, as if he was admiring something strange.

After Amira finished outputting, she was finally happy.

They also hung themselves on the Tongyou tree and began to close their eyes.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the underground palace became even weirder.

But this is not the weirdest place in Shengxian Island.

Because just half an hour ago, Feng Zining had just completed her 36th village massacre.

But at this time, in front of her, there were still those familiar villagers.

And she had killed them 36 times.

This is not a longevity village, just change the name to Immortal Village.
