Chapter 1203 – Within the Treasure Trove

　　In the mist, Lin Qiye opened his eyes.

　　He looked down at the island that was moving forward at an extremely slow speed, took a deep breath, and rode the clouds to land once again.

　　The vines scattered throughout the island sensed Lin Qiye’s approach and once again rose up into the sky, lashing at Lin Qiye’s face like lightning.

　　Lin Qiye’s eyes narrowed as he took a step in the air.

　　Boom-!

　　The majestic monarch pressure centered on him and spread rapidly, the surrounding sea set off circular waves, and those vines that flew in midair simultaneously trembled and paused in midair.

　　[Tyrant’s Wrath]!

　　The moment this aura appeared, the king turtle that moved forward, as if it had sensed something, its ghostly green eyes turned and gazed at Lin Qiye high in the sky.

　　A moment later, the vines in midair simultaneously rolled backwards and retracted into the turtle shell.

　　Sure enough, it was effective!

　　The corner of Lin Qiye’s mouth curled into a smile as he landed straight on top of the turtle shell, sweeping his mental energy across the surroundings and finding a gap at the edge of the turtle shell to enter the interior.

　　Without the king turtle’s obstruction, Lin Qiye smoothly entered it.

　　According to Gilgamesh, the King’s Treasure Trove was within the King Turtle’s turtle shell, and Lin Qiye saw it the first time he entered the turtle shell.

　　It was a huge blue cube suspended in the pitch-black void within the turtle shell, emitting a faint white light, and at a rough glance, it was about the size of several stadiums.

　　Its surface was engraved with countless dark golden lines, mysterious and flashy.

　　”Such a big thing …… No wonder Gilgamesh said I can’t take it away.”

　　Lin Qiye flew around this cube and tried to manipulate it with [Supreme Darkness Erosion], but no matter how hard Lin Qiye tried, he couldn’t shake it halfway, and even the imprints of summoning magic couldn’t be engraved on it.

　　This treasury itself, seemed to be a powerful artifact.

　　Lin Qiye placed his palm on the surface of the cube, and a ripple swept out from the surface of the treasury, and dark golden patterns gradually lit up.

　　When Lin Qiye opened his eyes again, he was already in a desert with yellow sand flying.

　　”The inner space of the treasure vault? It’s even bigger than I thought.”

　　Lin Qiye looked around, and under the azure sky, countless sand dunes rose and fell, with no boundaries visible at a glance.

　　In Lin Qiye’s understanding, the King’s Treasure Trove should be a warehouse used to store divine artifacts, but he didn’t expect that there would be a natural landscape that appeared so realistic.

　　However, thinking carefully, it wasn’t surprising, Gilgamesh was able to have Uruk’s best refining masters relocate their families into the treasure trove, which meant that there was an environment that could allow humans to survive here.

　　I also wonder, after all these thousands of years of change, does that one family still survive in the treasure vault?

　　Lin Qiye cloaked himself in a black cloak and evoked the [Somersault Cloud] on the dune, rushing up into the sky as his mental power swept through the surroundings.

　　According to Gilgamesh, he can’t take in this treasure trove unless he finds the [Star Coin] …… But this treasure trove is so big, where exactly is the [Star Coin] hidden?

　　Lin Qiye had just flown halfway into the air when he looked like he sensed something and violently turned back to look behind him.

　　Three black dots zoomed rapidly in his eyes!

　　Ode Ode Ode-!

　　A silver-colored metal flying bird, a blood-colored spear, and a pair of winged shoes were approaching him at an astonishing speed.

　　”Divine weapon?”

　　Lin Qiye’s heart flinched and he immediately spurred forward at full speed.

　　The speed of the [Somersault Cloud] was already considered the pinnacle of flight speed, and with Lin Qiye’s full strength, he began to gradually distance himself from the silver flying bird and the spear, but the pair of winged boots, not only weren’t thrown off by Lin Qiye, but instead, they were getting closer and closer to him!

　　Moreover, the faster Lin Qiye’s speed became, the faster the boots became, and the speed between the two began to shrink rapidly.

　　”How is this possible?” Disbelief was written all over Lin Qiye’s face as he watched the boots frantically step closer.

　　He frowned and pondered for a long time and took the initiative to slow down the speed of the [Somersault Clouds], while at the same time, the speed of those boots gradually weakened, and the distance between them and Lin Qiye grew larger and larger.

　　Lin Qiye finally discovered the law of this boot.

　　The faster I go, the more it catches up to me? And as long as I’m slow enough, it will be thrown off by me?

　　What kind of strange artifact is this!

　　Although Lin Qiye had found the law of these boots and could slow down enough to throw them off, once he slowed down, the spear and the silver flying bird, would immediately catch up to him.

　　Although he didn’t know the abilities of those two divine artifacts, Lin Qiye could feel that he shouldn’t be able to carry their attacks.

　　After agonizing for a moment, Lin Qiye still gave up on the idea of flying and directly landed back in the desert, and those three flying divine artifacts hovered in the air for a long time, seemingly finding it a bit boring, and left of their own accord.

　　”These divine artifacts have already started to have their own spirituality …… is this treasure trove’s effect of being warmed up for millennia?”

　　Lin Qiye finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the three of them leave.

　　Luckily, these three divine artifacts seemed to be just idly bored and didn’t have any killing intent, otherwise I’m afraid that he would have had to face a life and death crisis as soon as he entered the treasure vault.

　　Lin Qiye, cloaked in his cloak, stepped onto a sand dune, his eyes swept along the horizon into the distance, and vaguely, he saw a tall, rolling black silhouette.

　　”What is that thing? A city?” Lin Qiye’s brows furrowed slightly.

　　He took a step and walked straight in the direction where the black silhouette was.

　　The distance between that black silhouette and Lin Qiye was very far, and with Lin Qiye’s speed, he hadn’t been able to reach it after walking for several hours, but as he got closer, the original appearance of that black silhouette was gradually revealed in front of Lin Qiye’s eyes.

　　It was a city wall.

　　The black bricks that emitted an ethereal light were stacked one on top of the other, and when the sunlight hit it, it unexpectedly couldn’t reflect half of the light, like a continuous black hole that swallowed up all the light that fell on the surface.

　　Lin Qiye walked to the top of a nearby sand dune and looked up at this towering black city wall, a look of surprise appearing on his face.

　　”Sure enough, it’s a city …… built by man, or is it some sort of special divine artifact?”

　　Just as Lin Qiye was puzzled, the tall, dark red city gates slowly opened in the center of the black city wall.

　　Seven or eight bare-chested, lean and robust big men, dragging a few wooden wheeled carts loaded with empty barrels, walked out of the city, laughing and talking.

　　Judging from the style of the clothing they were wearing, it wasn’t a product of recent times, and should have come from the period Gilgamesh was in.

　　”Could it be the descendants of the Forge Family from Uruk back then?”

　　Lin Qiye didn’t rush into the middle of that city, but hid behind a sand dune and used his spiritual power to secretly observe these people.

　　He hesitated for a moment, transformed into a flash of night, and quietly followed them.
