White seabirds hovered on the sapphire sea level, not far from them was a three-masted sailboat.
Perhaps because he was a little tired from flying, a seabird with white feathers and black beak landed on the mast in the middle of the three-masted sailboat and stopped for a while.
From its perspective, a group of crew members wearing short-sleeved shirts were gathering on the deck below.
One of them, a middle-aged man with dark skin and a strong build, was lecturing the crew members in front of him.
"As you can see, Blackstone Island has been occupied by the evil god!"
The second officer looked around at the crew and said slowly and solemnly.
"The captain, first mate and several sailors were seduced and corrupted by the evil god, and have been killed by the noble wizard!"
"It is precisely because of this that we are lucky enough to escape from Blackstone Island."
"Otherwise...I'm afraid that I would have fallen like the captain and others by now."
"Thank you, respected wizard!"
Having said this, he raised his voice and winked at the crew members.
"Thank you, respected wizard!"
The crew members understood and shouted in unison.
The second mate glanced back imperceptibly, then turned back and continued:
"Our next destination is Bananca Island..."
In the captain's cabin,
Colin listened to the shouting coming from outside, paused slightly, and didn't pay attention.
Then he continued to lean over and look at the chart.
The Siya continent where the Holy Flame Kingdom is located is too far away.
The risk of crossing a distance of nearly 10,000 nautical miles just relying on this small three-masted sailboat is not high.
This is not only a problem of the quality of the sailboat, but also because all the crew members on the boat, including him, have no experience in ocean sailing.
The boat is not good enough and the people are inexperienced.
He is not so arrogant as to think that with the increase of the Scepter of Folly, he can walk sideways on the sea.
So, after careful consideration.
He decided to set off first to Bananka Island, the nearest large island to Blackstone Island.
There is only one purpose for going there.
That is to get a better ship.
It would be best to switch to a steam-driven steel ship like the Black Pearl Caravan.
It doesn't need to be very big. The internal space of the storage ring given by Erica is about a rectangular parallelepiped, with the longest point being fifty meters and the shortest point being ten meters.
There is not much left of the McIntosh Wizarding Tower, and it only occupies a small corner.
He also has a lot of space for storing supplies for ocean voyages.
This can greatly save space in the boat, which means he does not need to buy a boat that is too big.
Generally speaking, the larger the ocean-going ship, the higher the safety.
Because larger ships are less likely to capsize when encountering wind and waves, whereas smaller ships are more likely to capsize.
But in today's world of witchcraft, the problem of small boats easily capsizing is obviously not a problem.
It's just a matter of how many magic stones to spend.
Although Erica left him not many things, there were not many magic stones, probably more than a thousand.
Taking up more than half of everything.
...Looking at it this way, it feels like Erica has left less things behind.
Colin sighed slightly and put the magic stone he just took out back into the storage ring again.
Then he took out the white crystal pendant hanging on his chest and prepared to study it carefully.
It had been a long time since he had obtained the white crystal pendant, but he had not yet had time to study it carefully.
The white crystal pendant looks very ordinary, it is just a metal chain connected to a white crystal wrapped in hollow metal.
The white crystal inside is just the most common white crystal...at most, it's just purer than the white crystal you usually see.
Colin was not in a hurry to mobilize his magic power or spirit to test the white crystal.
Instead, turn it over carefully and look at it.
Objects with such power, except for rare items, are usually witchcraft tools.
And if it is a witchcraft tool.
Such witchcraft tools that touch the spiritual fog and the aura of humanity and knowledge are obviously not ordinary witchcraft tools.
So... maybe I'll leave the maker's name on it.
Colin brought the white crystal close to himself and looked at it carefully.
Not long after, he found a diamond-shaped eyeball symbol in the corner of the white crystal.
The logo is not burned outside the crystal, but inside the crystal, integrated with it.
'Rhombus eyeball.'
Colin tried hard to recall the relevant knowledge he had learned.
But found nothing.
He opened the storage ring, took out the white crystal ball where Erica had burned knowledge, and began to search for relevant knowledge in it.
The crystal ball is similar to the e-book in the previous life. It stores all kinds of knowledge in different categories. Erica thoughtfully built a simple search function into it.
But after some searching, I still couldn't find any relevant information about witchcraft tools or the rhombus-shaped eyeballs of strange objects.
Colin had no choice but to give up and put away the crystal ball of knowledge.
Holding the white crystal, he began to tentatively release the magic power.
Buzz——
The white crystal pendant glows slightly under the infusion of magic power.
Colin closed his eyes slightly and felt the white crystal pendant.
After a while, he opened his eyes.
The process of controlling the white crystal pendant was simpler than he imagined.
He effortlessly removed the soul mark of the previous master from the core, and then re-branded it with his own mark.
At this time, he finally understood the true effect of the white crystal pendant.
Whoosh!
With a thought in his mind, he activated the white crystal pendant.
Then he raised his hand and looked around.
Under the supersensory vision, the spiritual mist radiance on his body became more real, and the areas that were previously stiff now became more vivid and flexible.
Then, he slightly adjusted the white crystal pendant.
A layer of aura of humanity and knowledge that was far richer than that of a senior apprentice emerged in him.
Colin looked satisfied.
This white crystal pendant has no special function, just like it did when you got it.
Its main ability is to disguise the specific realm of a wizard!
Before, before I could truly control it, I could only passively pretend to be the mental fog of a senior apprentice or below.
But now, after taking control, you can disguise more auras of different levels according to your thoughts.
However, the farther away it is from the original level of aura, the worse the effect will be.
Finish these.
The captain's room has become dark.
Colin opened the door and went out, walked to the raised bow of the ship and looked into the distance.
At the end of the line of sight, on the dark sea, a golden-red sun was gradually sinking.
"Lower the anchor!"
"reef!"
"It's getting dark soon! Please be more agile with your hands and feet!"
Not far away, the new captain’s shouts of orders kept coming.
The sailors sank the anchor and lowered the sail quickly, their faces a little solemn.
The sea at night is strange and dangerous, this is common sense they have known since childhood.
Even though they have been crew members for so long.
But among them, the only one who actually spent the night at sea was the former second mate and now the captain.
Colin remained silent, but his heartbeat accelerated slightly.
