Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 828: 262. Speed Up Underwater_2

Noland Lee, submerged in the sea water, immediately noticed the peculiar image.

The sweeping of light columns across the sea’s surface was easily reminiscent of lighthouses using intense beams to guide ships forward.

Considering there were no “Sea Lighthouses” in the vicinity, the light columns likely originated from either the Spinning Continent or other sailing ships.

Noland Lee entered the pressure cabin, cleaned the sea water off his body, and changed into a clean Magic Robe.

The moment he stepped into the control room, several more light columns swept over the sea surface.

The radiance emitted by the light columns shone through the portholes of the control room, brightening the underwater environment considerably.

“Eh? Noland, those light columns look brighter than before. They’re coming from the south part of the heavens; could they really be from the Spinning Continent?” Denise Green, hugging her kitty, squinted her eyes and curiously peered through the porthole.

Noland Lee checked the Magic Yacht, ensuring there were no abnormalities, before using “Tracking Mark” and “Mind View” to observe the situation on the sea surface.

On the massive dark shadow far to the south, dozens of differently colored light columns shot out.

They spanned thousands of kilometers in distance, sweeping across the subsea region where Noland was currently located.

The dozens of light columns, like searchlights, were constantly moving, repeatedly crossing overhead at sea.

A system message emerged in Noland Lee’s mind:

[Attention!]

[You have observed the “signal that the Spinning Continent is about to jet treasure”!]

[Panel information for Starfall Sea No.13 to No.16 has been updated!]

[System prediction, in 3 days and 13 hours, the Collection of the Dragon Clan will arrive in Subsea No.13 to No.16!]

“This could be troublesome…” Noland Lee scratched his head.

He now knew the exact moment the treasure would fall but couldn’t quite be happy about it:

“Those are indeed light columns shooting from the Spinning Continent, you weren’t mistaken, Denise Green. There are more than 30 of them; what we saw just now was only a small part.”

Denise Green cocked her head, her face revealing a hint of worry, and looked at Noland Lee, asking:

“Doesn’t that mean there will be many treasure hunting teams appearing here soon?”noveldrama

“Yes, that’s right. Those folks who roam the Starfall Sea all year round will definitely not miss out on this treasure event.”

Noland Lee, with arms crossed and rubbing his chin, spoke while pondering:

“The timing really couldn’t be worse. If I don’t take some special measures, it will take me another three to four days to dig out the underwater treasure and take it away. Those treasure hunting teams will surely disrupt my rhythm and might even render all my efforts fruitless. Let me think about what to do…”

Noland Lee placed his right hand over the back of his left, checking the treasure inside the Blood Gathering Array.

Besides the one-time Passive Deconstruction operation across four subsea areas, he had also prepared several other trump cards for an emergency, and now he had to use them.

Noland Lee approached the control console and pressed the button to start the magical engine:

“Denise Green, let’s leave this place first. I’ll take the Magic Yacht to a farther area at sea.”

“Okay. Is there anything I need to do?” Denise Green asked.

“Of course, I do have some tasks for you. We might need to work overtime tonight.”

Noland Lee piloted the Magic Yacht to ascend while saying:

“After I park the boat, you and the Snow-winged Cat stay on board, and I’ll continue to excavate the sea treasure here in Subsea No.13. Let’s not sleep for these couple of days; I’ll dig for the treasure, you guard the yacht, and let’s try to take the treasure that records ore distribution away before the treasure hunt teams find us.”

“Mhm mhm mhm! I’ll listen to you!” Denise Green took out a Purple Robe Wooden Magic Wand from her Magic Pouch:

“Then I’ll cast ‘Strong Energy Abundance’.”

Denise Green concentrated, gathering her Rebirth Magic Power and focusing it at the tip of the wand, her fair face etched with seriousness.

After a one-minute preparation for casting, a streak of fire shot out from her wand, hitting Noland Lee’s forehead.

A warm sensation travelled all over Noland’s body, and though it lasted barely a few seconds, it made him feel as refreshed as if he had slept soundly for an entire day and night.

[System Message:]

[You have received the positive effect “Strong Energy Abundance”, lasting up to 1 day.]

[During this period, both your spirit and body will not tire, and your Energy Point consumption will reduce by 10%, while the acquisition of Energy Points will increase by 10%.]

[This positive effect has no side effects, but you cannot receive the same type of effect again within 3 days after it ends.]

The “Strong Energy Abundance” spell was absolutely fantastic.

It was something Denise Green learnt after advancing to the Four-circled rank.

It could reduce all Energy Point consumption while increasing the number of Energy Points gained from all sources.

It was a costly but incredibly efficient general-purpose spell with a one-time casting draining 300 points of Rebirth Magic Power.

In Noland Lee’s original plan, he would have Denise Green cast “Strong Energy Abundance” on him when the completion of the four subsea areas neared 100%.

Only then could he fully guarantee to benefit from the Energy Point gain provided by “Strong Energy Abundance”.

Now, on the other hand, Noland Lee had to have Denise Green use this trump card ahead of time.

After casting “Strong Energy Abundance” on Noland Lee, Denise Green also cast one on herself.

The Snow-winged Cat didn’t need the help of this spell; as a Magic Messenger, it already didn’t require sleep.
