Upon hearing Alka’s words, the general glanced deeply at Alka, then turned his head.
He looked toward the traitor, Feiba.
Feiba nodded repeatedly, saying, "Indeed, they know very little about this treasure. It’s said that their knowledge of this island was mostly speculation to begin with."
Upon hearing this, Alka and the others couldn’t help but look at him.
"Alright, since that’s the case."
The general looked reluctant to speak but seed to feel he had no choice.
"Klian, the pirate from twenty years ago and the owner of this skin," he said, shaking the Human Skin Map in his hand. Alka and Balazs had, of course, voluntarily handed it over. "In terms of family lineage, he could also be considered my cousin."
Upon hearing this, the people by the fire widened their eyes slightly, especially Balazs and the mbers of the Chamber of Comrce who had accompanied him. The expressions of those Chamber of Comrce mbers imdiately turned sullen and bitter. Clearly, this was news they shouldn’t have heard. Anyone with any sense would realize that hearing this ant their lives wouldn’t be easy, even if they survived.
The general continued, a rare hint of disgust briefly touching his serious expression, "A pirate relative, and scum at that. He even killed his own blood kin. Surprising, isn’t it?"
He then looked around the island and said, "This island is called Exile Island. Naturally, so royal family mbers were among those exiled here. Why were they exiled?
"Of course, it was due to disgusting political struggles. This included the young Klian, his parents, and his sister, as well as so others from their clan.
"Initially, when he was pirating in the surrounding waters, no one paid him much mind. However, that changed when he killed my sister—the King’s sister—claiming it was for revenge.
"That act also revealed to us that he was one of the old remnants. He eventually died in a siege when so of his crew betrayed him.
"But clearly, we didn’t manage to annihilate all the pirates on his ship. So managed to escape, and he, as if he had foreseen it, had already hidden his treasure.
"That treasure isn’t so unknown item; it’s an old family heirloom, supposedly lost. Now it seems it was rely hidden."
After speaking, he turned his head to look at everyone.
"Well, the story is over. Is there anything else you’d like to know?"
A replica of the crudely drawn map had been placed in front of Alka from the beginning. Even while listening, he kept his eyes fixed on the map, deep in thought, as if analyzing the information needed for its activation.
He was essentially correct. And indeed, the information from the golden light expanded.
[Treasure Information: The treasure hidden by the pirate nad Klian, his life’s accumulation, and ill-gotten wealth, stained with the blood and souls of the innocent.
[Holy Grail] level Treasure [Twin of Fear] is hidden here.
The space within the Broken Sea Region is weak. Civilizations that lived here ten thousand years ago mastered spatial power. The treasure is hidden in a concealed space.]
So that’s how it is! Who would have thought? Vastva’s Superimposed Space was unusually stable; the Superimposed Space of the ruins on this island had lasted for tens of thousands of years.
Since it was Vastva’s technology, Alka and his companions were already quite familiar with it.
Understanding dawned on them in an instant.
They had spent so much ti in Vastva; it wasn’t just for the simple purpose of finding treasures.
Unless this pirate had already deciphered the Superimposed Space technology, the key to opening it had to be a secret command. Reciting the command in reverse would allow one to exit.
Even Alka and his group hadn’t completely deciphered this technology.
Now, the main question is, what exactly is the secret command?
After so thought, Alka asked, "Can I know their family surna, or the nas of his parents and sister?"
Upon hearing this, General Kriel squinted his eyes slightly, looking at Alka.
"It seems you might have a lead."
"Their family surna is Vasaves. His sister’s na is Linette, and his parents are nad..."
After listening to the general’s account, Alka nodded.
And in his field of vision, the Treasure Information finally expanded to reveal the last entry.
[Treasure Information: The treasure hidden by the pirate nad Klian, his life’s...
The space within the Broken Sea Region is weak. The civilization that lived here ten thousand years ago mastered spatial power. The treasure is hidden in a concealed space.
The secret command to enter is "Linette Vassaf"] (Perfect)
So, he used his sister’s na as the secret command. That makes sense, considering he also killed the King’s sister, claiming it was revenge.
Alka then put away the map and nodded at the general.
"Your information is useful. I have so ideas now.
If you don’t mind... may I take a stroll in this abandoned village?"
Listening to Alka’s words, the general glanced deeply at him, then nodded.
"I hope you’re sensible enough."
After this brief warning, he paid Alka no more heed. The vast disparity in their strength gave him ample confidence.
Alka gave Chadite and the others a reassuring look, then walked to the side. Their campsite was in the village square.
Two soldiers flanked Alka as he walked, but he showed no reaction.
He moved as if genuinely searching for clues, exploring the various ruined huts in the village. He even made marks in various places and scribbled in a notebook, looking completely engrossed.
