Chapter 646: Relic Island

Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave

The vast sea, even before doomsday, was also an area hard to be conquered. Too many kinds of creatures were living in the deep sea, and most of them were a total mystery to humans. After doomsday, the sea had become more ferocious and violent. As a result, it was almost impossible for humans to travel by sea. Aquatic mutant beasts were far stronger than the ones on land.

Thankfully, Jiang Liushi possessed the MCV so the Shi Ying Squad could travel by sea. Of course, on their way, they encountered many fierce beasts, including a shiver of sharks – each of them at least twelve meters long. In other words, they were comparable to giant Monosaurus of the dinosaur era. Their steel-like teeth carried such an unbearable force that they could bite off chunks of hard reefs effortlessly.

When they encountered the missile boat, the sharks chased after it. The sharks’ dorsal fins resembled black blades, cutting through the ocean. Undeniably, those fins represented the Grim Reaper’s scythe in that area- they could even destroy warships.

For some time, Jiang Liushi struggled against his greed until he finally gave on the idea of fighting them. Although their mutant nuclei were attracting, he wasn’t adept in aquatic battles. In case something went wrong, he wouldn’t know how to deal with it. Therefore, he sped up, reaching 80 knots per hour and shaking the sharks off their tail. It was not difficult to get rid of the sharks, but Jiang Liushi was still shocked deep inside. After all, they were humongous beasts and coupled with their high speed, their intimidating aura was much more intense.

“Ying, where are we?” asked Jiang Liushi.

After doomsday, GPS navigation was no longer possible, so sailing in the ocean was extremely dangerous. Just relying on the ship’s compass to pinpoint their location in the ocean wouldn’t give them accurate results.

In ancient times, as Zheng He was on his journey to explore the Western Ocean, he only dared to slowly sail along the coastline. In the era of great exploration, humans relied on star-steering, sextant, special nautical timepieces, and various other methods to determine the latitude and longitude.

Jiang Liushi didn’t possess such ancient tools, and even if he did, he wouldn’t know how to use them. Fortunately, Starseed had great analytical ability, and it was strong enough to enable the geomagnetic position system. According to the changes in geomagnetism, Jiang Liushi could determine their general direction. Even if it wasn’t as accurate as the GPS, it’s enough to find an island.

“About 100 nautical miles away from the island,” replied Ying while looking at the map.

Jiang Liushi nodded. They were at the center of the Pacific Ocean, in which countless islands could be found. Even back when they had set off from Shen Hai Island, they had found many unknown islands. As a matter of fact, in the long history of human civilization, many islands had yet to be explored.

The island, which they wanted to find, was the farthest in the Pacific Ocean. Its route was complicated and dangerous, so it was a barren land that human civilization could not radiate.

After a few hours…

“The reef area is just in front of us. Our radar has already detected it,” said Ying. She was indeed a capable captain.

“Try your best to dodge,” answered Jiang Liushi.

In fact, he had already seen Relic Island’s outline. It seemed that it was about a few square kilometers big. The mountain on the island was covered with green vegetation.

According to Shen Kui, Jiang Liushi got to know that half a century ago, Genesis’ team had discovered the lost civilization’s relics in the unnamed mountain. The mountain was reinforced, but it was completely hollowed out, and a kilometer deep hole could be seen in the ground.

If the searching team had made its findings public, the whole world would be swept by a storm of shock. However, as the Cold War was still ongoing during that time, the relic’s existence had remained a secret. Later, after further investigation, they uncovered many mysteries, but the more they discovered, the more shocking it was. Thus, Genesis chose to not disclose their findings.

At that time, only the most influential people in the world were privy to the relic’s secrets. They were the ones who established the organization with the purpose of studying the remnant. It was Genesis’ predecessor.

Unsurprisingly, doomsday’s eruption was related to the relic. However, Genesis revealed parts of what they knew only half a month before the catastrophic event. It was too late for any preparations for humanity’s survival. The influential figures could only requisition large-scale new buildings and hastily build safe areas. Shen Hai Island was built in that way.

“We’re reaching the beach.” Ying sailed the missile boat and carefully docked it next to an island reef.

Fortunately, Ran Xiyu had already activated her spiritual field, detecting almost everything on the island. The small island was only a few square kilometers in size so Ran Xiyu’s mental energy could cover almost half of it.

“I didn’t detect any mutant beasts on the island,” said Ran Xiyu doubtfully. In her spiritual field, she could only see exotic birds with colorful feathers, crabs, and frogs! Due to the island’s small size, the biggest animal was actually a wild boar.

“This island can be regarded as the world’s safe haven. Almost all of humanity and animals have been affected by the disaster, but this island was unaffected. It’s truly ridiculous,” said Jiang Liushi while shaking his head.

At this time, the MCV changed to its basic form, and then, Ying drove it into the island. Although there were no roads on the island, they didn’t meet any difficulty in driving the tour bus. The tour bus obliterated everything in its path, directly heading to the mountain.

“Xiyu, did you find anyone in the mountain?” asked Jiang Liushi.

Although the relic was on the island, it was unlikely for anyone to live there. According to Shen Kui, after transferring almost everything of importance, they had sealed the island. Moreover, it was impossible to set Genesis’ headquarters in such a barren land.

“I didn’t detect anyone. But Brother Jiang, we should stay vigilant. If our opponent is stronger than me, they can easily conceal their presence,” warned Ran Xiyu.

Jiang Liushi nodded in agreement. “Oh, look! It’s here. Shen Kui mentioned it’s the entrance.” Jiang Liushi pointed at a huge stone filled with moss. In fact, Genesis had placed that stone there to hide the entrance.

Then, Jiang Liushi got off the tour bus and lifted the heavy stone swiftly. Behind the stone was an old, rusty metal door with a code panel next to it. Naturally, it was another of Genesis’ measures to close off the relic’s only entrance.
