Chapter 46 Lynn: I smell a smell called black cauldron
blah blah blah…
The continuous raindrops fell on the deck, and there were crisp low humming sounds, and Lin En, who was located inside the cabin, woke up from the continuous nightmare.
After seeing the environment he was in, Lynn couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The phantom of the goddess who suddenly appeared last night brought him a lot of psychological pressure. Fortunately, the other party didn't intend to catch up.
They should be safe now.
Lin En straightened up, turned down the hard wooden bed, took a cloak hanging at the door, and then opened the hatch and walked onto the deck.
The gentle sea breeze blows towards the face with bits of seawater, carrying a salty and moist smell, blowing away the dirty air in the cabin.
Ling En looked up into the distance, and the dense fog filled the sea, covering the entire sailboat, and he could barely see about three to five meters away from the boat.
This mist seems to have some kind of mysterious power, even if he uses a ring of magic [Tick's Farsightedness], he can't see farther through the white mist.
The danger of sailing under such conditions is self-evident. Not only is it difficult to distinguish the direction, but it is also possible to bump into the reef.
"Master Wizard, are you awake? Did you rest well last night?"
A familiar voice sounded behind him, and Lynn turned his head to look over, and it was the lame Lauder who came.
However, compared to last night, the other party looked a little sluggish, obviously frightened.
Lin En did not answer Lauder's inquiry, but spoke directly. "Is this the sea of mist? How did you identify the direction in the past, and how long did it take to reach the wizard's land?"
"Normally, it takes more than half a month to sail from Haigang Town. As for the way to identify the direction..." Lauder took out a compass very carefully.
Lin En approached curiously. The compass was round in shape, made of wood, with many complicated runes and patterns drawn on the surface. The most eye-catching thing was the pointer above, pointing at the ship motionlessly. direction.
Could it be a compass?
Lynn guessed secretly, and then heard Lauder explain.
"This compass is an alchemical creation made by the great wizard Herram. No matter where you are, it will always point in the direction of the wizard's land."
This is how they can cross the sea of mist. No matter where they start from, they only need to follow the direction of the compass, and they can always find the land of wizards.
It's amazing... Lynn picked up the compass, looked it over carefully, and became a little interested in the great wizard named Herram, which was the second time he had heard the name.
It seems that Anrioke's painstaking arrangement to deal with several wizard apprentices, in order to lure Lauder in order to get this compass.
As long as this thing is handed over to the Holy See, it will definitely be a great achievement!
Because he couldn't understand the runes on the compass, Lynn just wrote it down secretly and returned the things.
Lauder reached out to take it, and then looked a little tangled. After a long time, he asked cautiously. "Are you a great wizard?"
"Of course not." Lynn shook his head, not daring to admit it.
Now I am just a wizard apprentice who has just been exposed to magic for a long time. It is fine to be mistaken for a formal wizard before. After all, with the help of his brain, he can indeed do many things that a formal wizard can do, but he is still too far away from the level of a great wizard. far away.
Without the help of more than a thousand people from the [Chuan Gang], he would not have been able to set up a trap that could destroy the entire harbor wharf.
It was not so much magic but the power of science that destroyed An Sik and the others.
Seeing Lynn shaking his head and denying it, Lauder seemed a little dubious. Last night, he witnessed the terrifying explosion with his own eyes. It must be the mighty power possessed by advanced magic!
But recalling that the other party asked him to collect a large amount of raw materials, Lauder secretly guessed that this witchcraft called "Fireworks" is probably a powerful magic that requires a special ritual to be prepared beforehand.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid you will be blamed after we reach the wizard's land." Lauder couldn't help sighing.
Lin En's expression suddenly changed, and there was a hint of danger in his eyes looking at Lauder. He vaguely smelled the smell of black pot.
Under someone's "kind" gaze, Lauder hurriedly explained.
Although he has been operating the route from Seaport Town to the Land of Wizards, the person who created this route was the Great Wizard Helram.
To put it bluntly, the entire [Boat Gang] is just a tool in the hands of the other party. Whether they want it or not, they need to transport some scarce materials to the wizard's land every year.
Because they have been acting very secretly, there has never been a major mistake in more than ten years, but now because of Jonny and others, this transportation line has been directly destroyed.
If Lin En is also a great wizard, then naturally there is no need to worry too much. If not, he needs to be prepared to be held accountable. This is why he made a statement to confirm it.
Under Lauder's explanation, Lynn also quickly figured this out, and he couldn't help but feel a little troubled. He could naturally think of the importance of this waterway.
This blame should be borne by his mentor, Kelu. If the other party hadn't been so courageous, trying to abduct the Duke's second daughter and was caught on the spot, how could the Holy See follow the vines and find out all the way to Haigang Town...
"Is this the only way to go from the Land of Wizards to the Sekas Empire?" Lynn asked.
"It should be more than that... The Sea of Misty is also connected to another important port - Viknir, the capital of the Sekas Empire." Lauder said hesitantly. Although he couldn't be 100% sure, he guessed that the city of Viknir Most people are doing the same thing as themselves.
"I understand." Lynn nodded. It seems that the situation has not developed to the worst point, but he does not intend to take this blame, he has to find a way to get rid of it...
Lin En was thinking about it, and asked Lauder about various information about the Wizard's Land. He was too unfamiliar with this place, and it was easy to suffer without enough information.
After several inquiries, Lynn realized that the Land of Wizards was different from what he had expected. It was not a refuge established by a group of wizards persecuted by the Holy See, but existed hundreds of years ago, with a city , a port, and a huge island with a population of 600,000, the interior can almost be regarded as a small kingdom...
It's just that there are no kings and nobles here, but wizards and various schools of thought instead, and the wizard council composed of several legendary wizards holds the highest power...
