Chapter 320 Image
Click! There was a soft sound.
The large lid of the treasure chest slowly opened up.
Heath stared at the treasure chest with alert eyes in case something unexpected happened so he could avoid it in time.
However, until the chest was completely opened, there was still no change. Obviously, Heath’s previous judgment was correct. This treasure chest that was always held in Areos’ arms did not have any special mechanisms.
“Phew!”
Heath heaved a sigh of relief. Although he was mentally prepared, it was not worth it to jump out of some trap and cause his efforts to go down the drain.
After calming himself down, Heath looked into the chest.
The large chest did not contain any colorful diluted treasures. Instead, it contained some miscellaneous items such as small bells, toy puppets, music boxes, and other miscellaneous items.
Heath went into the box and looked around. A ball that was pressed into a music box at the bottom of the box quickly attracted his attention.
It seemed to be some kind of crystal. Its texture was crystal clear, and its surface was round and smooth. It was about the size of a basketball. If it was compared to the height of a Giant, it should be the size of a knuckle.
The ball was emitting a faint l.u.s.ter. At the same time, a unique spiritual fluctuation was spreading in the surroundings. According to this spiritual fluctuation, Heath could easily identify it
It was the Heart of the Sea that Heath was looking for!
Heath’s eyes lit up.
At the same time, the cheers of the Gehrus also rang out.
“The Heart of the Sea! It’s the Heart of the
Sea!”
“I know that smell. This is the Heart of the Sea, this is the Heart of the Sea!”
The shape of the Heart of the Sea was not fixed, but its elemental and spiritual fluctuations were the same. According to these reactions, creatures familiar with it could easily determine its ident.i.ty.
“Wizard, quickly take it down, quickly take it down.”
“That’s the Heart of the Sea, it’s a treasure.”
Heath took out the entire music box from the box under the persuasion of the Gehrus.
To the Giant, it was just a small toy-like music box, but the size of the music box placed in front of Heath was as big as a table, standing on the ground like a piano.
The Heart of the Sea was embedded in the bottom of the music box. It looked like some kind of part.
Heath lowered his body and carefully studied the structure of the music box. Then, he took out a dagger and began to dismantle the components on both ends of the Heart of the Sea.
Ding! Ding! Dong! Dong!
After a series of clear and chaotic sounds, the cover below was quickly pried open by Heath. The slot of the Heart of the Sea that was stuck in the box was also loosened on both sides. The Heart of the Sea rolled down like a basketball. “I finally got it!”
Picking up the Heart of the Sea, Heath was delighted. After being busy for half a day, he finally got the Heart of the Sea in his hands.
Including the one he got from Ice Castle, Heath now had two Hearts of the Sea in his hands.
Ding ding ding… Ding ding… At this moment, a pleasant and crisp sound rang out like the sound of crystals colliding. The rhythm formed a beautiful melody.
This sound came from the music box.
After Heath pried away the heart of the ocean, it seemed to have triggered some mechanism in the music box. The bearing in the middle of the music box suddenly began to rotate, and beautiful music flowed out of the music box.
At the same time, the rotating bearing in the middle of the music box suddenly lit up and shone with a colorful light.
There were small holes on the bearing. When the light from the inside shone on them, the holes formed shadows that fell on the wall.
Heath looked at the wall and could not help but raise his eyebrows. When he observed carefully, he suddenly realized that the shadows that fell on the wall formed a series of silhouettes. There were human figures, scenery, animals, and other random things. As the music box rotated… These human figures were also constantly changing. It seemed as if they were moving.
Along with them was the sound that flowed out of the music box.
Slowly, the silhouette animation in front of him began to become more colorful and three-dimensional. At the same time, the sound that flowed out of the music box changed from pure music to a three-dimensional sound.
His eyes blurred, and there were two more figures in front of Heath.
One was a beautiful woman with a dazzling strange bracelet on her wrist. Her whole body naturally exuded a n.o.ble temperament, and she was as high and mighty as a queen.
The other was dressed in the uniform of a maid. It was none other than Garcia of Ice Castle. However, Garcia was obviously much younger at this time, and she looked like a young girl who had yet to experience the world.
There was a baby in Garcia’s arms. It looked like it had just been born. Its whole body was still wet, but its body size was obviously larger than an ordinary baby. What was more unique was that it did not have the eyes of a normal person on its face. Instead, it only had a round eyeball on its forehead. It looked exceptionally strange.
Needless to say, this should be the Giant. ‘So that’s how it is. Is this what Areos regards as a treasure?’
Combined with the legends, Heath finally understood why Areos treasured this treasure chest so much. It should be because this music box contained the image of his mother.
Yes, the lady with a n.o.ble temperament that appeared in the image was none other than the legendary Lord of the sea, the Sea G.o.d Siren. Heath had seen her portrait in more than one book that recorded the Siren. It was exactly the same as the one in front of him.
At this moment, the Sea G.o.d Siren and Garcia were talking about something. Unfortunately, only the video was recorded in the music box, and the part of the figure was completely music.
From the way the two of them looked at the baby in Garcia’s arms from time to time, it could be deduced that they were talking about the Giant in Garcia’s arms. ‘What are they talking about?’ Heath looked at their lips curiously. He had read about lip language in an anthropologist’s book, so he simply picked it up.
Soon, through observing their lips, Heath quickly recognized the first sentence.
This was what the Sea G.o.d Siren said to Garcia, and the subject of their conversation was the Giant in Garcia’s arms.
Heath, who had read this sentence clearly, was stunned.
At this moment —
“Roar!”
Suddenly, a violent roar was heard. The anger in the voice could be felt even from a distance.
Heath was shocked and immediately recognized the owner of the voice —
Areos!
