System vs Rebirth

Chapter 1228: Record

"This is…"

Noel's expression turned serious. He had been holing up inside the royal library for more than three days, reading books after books.

Most records consisted of trials and errors from the previous expeditions, so he just skimmed them, making sure he knew what to do when a situation occurred.

There were a lot of records about sea demons destroying ships. They came not only during the day but also during the night.

They crushed the bottom of the ship. Some records had stated that water element spirit was necessary because it would allow them to better fight in the water.

However, the overwhelming number of demons couldn't be underestimated. A single human wouldn't be able to do it. The demons' goal was to sink the ship no matter the method.

The moment water started entering the ship, they had failed.

That was why they began to take a stone element spirit or a wood element spirit. This way, they could patch the hole to an extent.

However, when there were simply too many holes, those people would end up exhausting themselves. As a result, the ship sank yet again.

The most important fact he found among the records was that the demons always came in a massive group. They never attacked alone.

That was why the existence of a lightning element spirit would be good because the sea was a good conductive material.

Still, the demons were able to control the water as well, isolating the part that was conducting electricity to avoid getting electrocuted.

But this was the most effective strategy. That was why they actually used items that were able to withstand electricity to an extent, such as wood and rubber.

And with good enough control, they should be able to prevent the electricity from damaging the ship.

However, even with ten attempts, the expedition still ended up in failure. The main reason for their failure wasn't solely due to the demons.

There were also high waves, rough storms, and other natural phenomena that wrecked the ship.

In fact, a third of the failures was actually caused by these natural phenomena. Another third was caused by demons, while the rest was due to the lack of information. They didn't know where they set sail and didn't find an island after a long time.

As a result, the sailors became sick due to the prolonged journey and were unfit to continue the mission.

Having these records alone allowed them to progress rapidly for this expedition. In addition, he got Vivi on his side. Her experience would be beneficial for this trip. Then, both he and Anna were Spirit Transcendence, which guaranteed the safety of the crews. They had even asked the diva to escort them.

Last but not least, Noel had the direction to that island. If it was from an unverified source, he would probably have low confidence, but this information came from the Spirit God.

The only thing left to find was the record that started all of these expeditions.

After looking around the records for several days, he finally found it.

"Day 26, Month 09, Year 0058."

"A giant ship was made under the request of One of the Great Heroes Ihui. Because of his service for humanity as well as the cooperation from the Great Commander Simeon, the royal family prepared a ship."

Noel's expression turned bright after seeing this piece of information. After all, the Great Commander Simeon was none other than his ancestor.

It appeared he was using Simeon instead of Ardagan this time. And Ihui was the fourth commandant. His full name was Ihui Makaveli.

It turned out everything was indeed related to the fourth commandant. In other words, the divine item they would find on this island would be the Martial Headband, which meant the one the demons possessed was the Gem of Immortality.

"Day 15, Month 10, Year 0058."

"The expedition was a success. There was an island across the sea. They didn't speak the same language as us, but they had a very big similarity to the people of the Greenwood Kingdom."

"Day 30, Month 10, Year 0058."

"Great Hero Ihui decided to stay on the island. The island has a lot of new things and advanced knowledge. Each of them is strong and utilizes the spirit a bit differently from the people on the mainland."

"Day 06, Month 11, Year 0058."

"Great Hero Ihui had fallen in love with a local woman and finally chose to settle down with his new family. His last message was, 'For whoever needs my help, come to me. I'll come rushing to your side once again. I hope that there is never a need for my power to be required anymore, but my master said there would be a day for the destined war between humans and demons to occur far in the future.

Hence, I will stay here and train my descendants. Once again, I hope there won't be anyone coming to this place.'"

The message was clear. Vivi said Ihui was loyal, and Noel could feel it from that message. He was simply tired of all this conflict.

However, it looked like Ihui realized that Alex was not completely broken. Instead, he was acting like one while preparing for the future battle.

Ihui knew this and chose to build up his own force outside this land. It might be Alex or Margaretha's plan, as they wanted the demons to focus on the Ardagan family. When the battle happened, Ardagan would tell him about Ihui.

Unfortunately, Ardagan was currently in slumber. It was probably the reason why the Spirit God was the one telling him about it.

When he thought about it, everything made sense. Normally, Ardagan would send a mission in this form, which made it look like a prophecy.

"I see. So that's how it is." Noel smiled. He never thought that Ardagan was still helping him this much.

He raised his hand, looking at Ardagan's spirit symbol. He muttered, "I hope you wake up soon, partner."
