On the other side, a puzzled look appeared on Quinn Serena’s delicate face, as she asked, “We haven’t found a single corpse on our way here.”
“Captain Quinn, isn’t that a pretty normal thing?”
Hearing this, Gabriel Jordan scratched his head, confused. “Back then, the people on the ship must have left because of some emergency, leaving this huge ship behind.”
“But all the personal belongings in the cabins are still here, and even the pots still have food cooking.”
“This fact is unavoidably puzzling.” Quinn Serena furrowed her brow slightly and continued.
“That is indeed the case.” Not far away, Leo Ray nodded slightly. He had naturally noticed these details as well.
However, just like Gabriel had mentioned,
At this stage, apart from the sailors on the ship leaving in a hurry, not having time to take their belongings, there really isn’t any other reasonable speculation.
“Never mind, based on the current situation, there is only one possible explanation.”
Leo Ray pondered for a moment and then concluded, “That is, three thousand years ago, after encountering that sudden huge wave,
Someone on the ship, in order to avoid the catastrophe, used a powerful teleportation magic or a corresponding advanced magic scroll.
They teleported the entire ship to this underground cave.
In the end, the people on the ship had to abandon it due to some emergency, resulting in the current situation.”
“Lord is absolutely right.” Gideon Black thought for a moment and slightly bowed, “This is indeed the most reasonable speculation.”
“Alright, let’s continue our search.” Leo Ray nodded slightly, lifting the Light Crystal Stone in his hand and moving on.
Later, after conducting a careful investigation,
The group did not find anything new on this floor.
Then, they used the nearby staircase to reach the third Magic Cannon Deck below.
In the front half of the third Magic Cannon Deck, besides a similar layout like the previous floor, Leo Ray and the others also discovered a new large cabin.
Upon entering it, Leo Ray noticed,
This cabin was exceedingly spacious, with more than a hundred square meters of area, but the layout was extremely simple.
Only on one side of the cabin wall, near the hull, there were two large semi-transparent crystals embedded.
Carefully observing, the two large Crystal Stones, each measuring a cubic meter, appear as perfect cubes.
Under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone, despite being covered by a layer of dust, they still gave off a crystal-clear feeling, unable to hide their original brilliance.
Furthermore, on the surface of the crystals, one could vaguely see strange magic patterns formed by various lines, seemingly quite incredible.
“So that’s what it is!” A joyful expression appeared on Leo Ray’s face when he saw this.
He would, of course, not be unfamiliar with such semi-transparent crystal stones.
These were the Barrier Crystals he had once discovered in a cave in the Old Mine District of Golin City, along with Solomon Rue, Sylvia Moore, Silas Brooks, and the other five lords.
At that time, Leo Ray had found two of them.
One of them contained an unknown barrier from an unknown race, which could only be activated by magic powerhouses with the corresponding racial bloodline.
The other one was completely vacant, and could store a new barrier for their own use.
“As we all know, building various functional magic barriers is undoubtedly a very time-consuming and laborious task.
This point can be seen from the situation of the Mage Squad building the ‘Eye of Insight’ previously.This kind of barrier crystal that can be directly deployed with the corresponding magical power is undoubtedly an extremely convenient item.”
Thinking of this, the joy on Leo Ray’s face became even more evident.
“My Lord, it seems that this is the magic barrier cabin of this giant ship.”
On the other side, Gideon Black, pushing the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, bowed to Leo Ray and said, “During the battle, there will be a large number of magic powerhouses gathered here to supply magical power to the two barrier crystals simultaneously.”
“I see,” said Leo Ray, nodding slightly. He walked over and muttered, “So that means the two barrier crystals contain that powerful defensive barrier seen earlier in the illusion that can withstand the magic cannon?”
When he approached the barrier crystal, among his excitement, Leo Ray opened the attribute column of one of them.
[Name: Barrier Crystal]
[Resource Level: 4 (Rare)]
[Size: 100cm*100cm*100cm]
[Purity: A+ grade]
[Stored Barrier: Fortress Wall]
[Remarks: This is a high-quality barrier crystal, installed on the flagship of a legendary human clan maritime overlord.
It stores an efficient defensive magic barrier, which is capable of blocking all physical and magical attacks from external enemies, without affecting the counterattacks from those inside the barrier. It can only be activated by the magic system experts of the human clan and requires at least 100 Tier 2 magic system experts or powerhouses with equivalent strength to maintain the barrier’s normal operation.]
“So, the two almost identical barrier crystals both store a barrier called ‘Fortress Wall’?”
Seeing this, Leo Ray excitedly rubbed his hands together and thought, “In this way, as long as it is placed within the territory, it would have a great effect if any outside enemies invade. I’ll research the effective range later.”
Just as Leo Ray was thinking of this, the two equally sized barrier crystals were carefully removed by Taylor.
Also, the crystals were wiped clean by Abigail, who was carrying cleaning supplies with her and using a special magic cloth to wipe them. They became bright and shiny again.
After receiving Leo Ray’s storage ring, the various subordinates naturally kept many of their personal items in it.
“Very well,” Leo Ray nodded at the two and casually put both barrier crystals into the space bracelet.
Seeing this, the four Lords, including Quinn Serena, didn’t say anything.
Just now, they had also examined the attribute column of the barrier crystals, but their magic system experts were in extremely short supply at this stage.
Let alone 100 Tier 2 magic system experts, it would be quite rare to recruit even one more Tier 1 expert.
Therefore, this kind of thing was of no use to them.
It would be better to ask Boss Shawn Sands later if he could exchange for some useful equipment.
Thinking of this, Quinn Serena glanced at Leo Ray, who was beaming nearby, and couldn’t help but swallow her saliva.
Without a doubt, judging from Boss Shawn Sands’s expression, he had apparently met this condition that people looked up to…
On the other hand, Leo Ray, who had just put the two barrier crystals into his bag, smiled and said to everyone, “Then let’s continue to see what other good things are on this giant ship.”
