My Magic Age

The sailboat dragged the lifeboat along the ocean current and sailed southward. The hemp rope was stretched straight. Even if the sail was fully hoisted, the speed of the big ship could not be increased because of the drag of the lifeboat. One could even hear the harpoon base fixed on the bow making a "creaking" sound, as if the harpoon could collapse at any time. The huge tentacles extending from the sea quickly wrapped around the hull.

Captain Blondie saw the huge tentacle that was dozens of meters long reaching out. The tip of the tentacle was covered with countless sharp spikes. As soon as it touched the side of the ship, Lant and the other seven construct knights raised the Crusader Sword and chopped on the slippery and wet tentacle.

The spikes on the huge tentacle were extremely hard. The Crusader Sword chopped on it, and it actually made a sound of metal clashing. The powerful construct knight could only cut off a few spikes and left shallow wounds on the tentacle.

The sailors on the ship also took out their spears and stabbed at the giant tentacles, but those spears could not penetrate the slippery and tough skin of the tentacles.

Instead, the tentacle lashed at the sailors on the ship like a long whip. The huge tentacle hit the hull and immediately swept the sailors off the deck and into the sea. A huge gap was also smashed on the side and deck of the left side of the sailboat. Knight Lant saw the opportunity early and dodged the tentacle's whip.

Noah, Shirley Newman and I released magic towards the tentacles, and ice arrows and fireballs hit the tentacles. The tentacle seemed to be very sensitive to fireballs. After being burned by Noah and Shirley Newman's fireballs, it immediately shrank into the sea.

Before the sailors on the ship had time to cheer for this brief victory, three huge tentacles suddenly emerged from the sea and entangled with the ship at the same time. One of the tentacles just blocked the rope between the sailboat and the lifeboat. The big ship sailed slower because of the rope.

Captain Bronte in the cabin shouted to the first mate at the bow: "Cut the rope quickly, otherwise none of us can leave."

The first mate stood at the bow and quickly pulled out a scimitar from his waist and cut the rope with one knife. The lifeboat was like a kite with a broken line, falling on the rough sea. The huge tentacle entangled the rope and quickly dragged it into the sea. The lifeboat and the four sailors on it were pulled into the sea before they even had time to shout.

At this time, the Belan sailboat was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. Driven by the north wind and ocean currents, it flexibly got out of the clamping of the two tentacles.

The three huge tentacles were chasing after the Belan, swimming close to the sea surface like three sea snakes.

At this time, Noah shouted to Shirley Newman: "Shirley, help me!"

Noah stood on the deck and quickly drew a magic pattern array, and a dark ball condensed in front of him.

This was the extreme version of the "Black Oil Spell". The diameter of the black oil ball was nearly one meter. Noah barely controlled the magic to push the black oil ball out of the ship. A giant tentacle screamed and hit the black oil ball. The sticky black oil stuck to the tentacle.

Shirley Newman was beside Noah and threw the fireball that had been prepared long ago. The fireball hit the black oil on the tentacle and burned violently. The tentacle was instantly engulfed by the fire. The rapid fire made the tentacle shrink into the sea, and the burning black oil floated on the sea surface and did not go out.

An ice wall rose from the sea, blocking the other two tentacles that followed behind. One of the tentacles smashed the ice wall like a whip, and the two tentacles stopped their momentum while running.

Taking advantage of this gap, the Beilan quickly escaped from this area with the help of the sea breeze.

…

Several sailors were repairing the left side of the ship and the broken deck. There were spare wood on the ship. The sailors only needed to saw the wood into the shape of the gap, nail the planks to the keel of the sailboat, polish the planks smooth, and repeatedly apply tung oil several times, and the repair work was completed.

The bodies of the Naga sea warriors on the deck were quickly moved by the sailors into the warehouse at the bottom of the cabin. In order to ensure that the bodies of these sea warriors would not rot in the hot summer, a layer of salt was sprinkled on each sea warrior’s body.

In addition, after learning that I was a water magician, Captain Bronte personally asked me to cast magic to make some ice blocks and put them in the warehouse at the bottom of the cabin. The cabin door was wrapped tightly with thick quilts to isolate the heat outside. Even so, the ice blocks could only last for a few days in the warehouse.

I asked Bronte why he would rather risk his life to let the sailors salvage the bodies of the Naga warriors in the sea.

Captain Bronte just smiled strangely and didn't tell the reason, which made me feel that the bodies of the Naga sea warriors were a bit mysterious.

The Belan was in the sea area of ​​the Naga sea natives, and the ship would never stop even at night.

The sailors on the ship wanted to get out of this sea area in one breath, but in the following few days, although we encountered several battles between the Faceless Legion and the Naga Sea Clan, we had no chance to pick up corpses on the battlefield because of the unfortunate timing.

Seeing that the Naga Sea Clan on the Vashj plane had already started a full-scale war with the Dark Faceless Legion, Noah and I had a deeper understanding of the situation on the Vashj plane.

Obviously, the situation on the Vashj plane is worse than that on the Yello plane. Although the Mensa family has occupied hundreds of islands suitable for human habitation on the Vashj plane, they are not the real masters of the Vashj plane.

The real ruler of this sea area is the Naga Sea Clan in the sea. At present, it is the Naga Sea Clan warriors who are resisting the Faceless Legion.

When the sailboat passed through these sea areas, it was found that the Faceless Legion should have taken the initiative in the war and was the final winner of these battles.

The most dangerous time was when we were sailing in the ocean current, we were ambushed by the Faceless Legion. Fortunately, this group of Faceless did not set up an ambush circle, but was on the sea where the Belan was traveling, and they were clearly ready to fight. Our Captain Bronte would never run into them head-on, but would bypass them from a distance.

Although the Faceless Legion quickly chased us, the sea breeze that day helped us to leave the group of Faceless far behind.

The sea area of ​​the Vashj plane is extremely vast. We took advantage of the north wind and followed this ocean current all the way south. We walked day and night for more than a week before we found that the sea water in front of us finally returned to its azure color.

Captain Bronte told me that we have left the sea controlled by the Naga Sea Clan.

Putting aside the potential threat of sea beasts in the sea, this place can be considered a safe area.

Captain Bronte could not wait to let the sailors stand on the observation deck to look for islands on the sea nearby.

Although there are no large lands on the Vashj plane, the islands in the sea are as numerous as the stars in the sky. Of course, the Mensa family occupies many habitable islands on the Vashj plane, but there are more islands that have not been occupied by people because there is no fresh water or other living resources. They are still uninhabited islands.

Captain Bronte found such an island.

This is a horseshoe-shaped island surrounded by red coral reefs. There is a two-kilometer-long white sand beach on one side of the island, and a cliff with a drop of about 30 meters on the other side. There are many lush green vegetation on the island. It is hard to tell whether there are wild beasts living, but there are many birds living in the forest.

This small island, which looks less than 0.5 square kilometers, can be seen in its entirety at a glance by standing on the deck of the sailboat.

Without deep-water channels and good ports, the Belan stopped in the waters outside the coral reefs. The only lifeboat on the ship had been abandoned in the waters of the Naga Sea Clan. Captain Bronte ordered the sailors to remove several door panels on the ship and throw them into the water. The first mate and thirty sailors sat on the door panels and swam to the island.

The sailors who arrived on the island cut wood on the island without stopping, made a bigger raft and returned to the Belan.

The bodies of the Naga Sea Clan warriors on the ship were all transported to the raft, carrying a fishy and salty smell, and were transported to the island by the sailors. At this time, the leather armor and other things on the Naga warriors had been stripped away, leaving only the bodies covered with a layer of light blue scales.

Then, Captain Bronte ordered people to transport a large iron pot and dozens of earthenware jars to the island.

When Noah, Shirley Newman and I arrived on the deserted island by raft, the first mate had already set up a large iron pot with the sailors on the beach and filled it with wood. The newly cut wood was very wet, and billowing smoke rose when it burned. This column of smoke abruptly destroyed the charming beauty of the island.

I took Catalina and Deborah with me, Noah took Knight Lanter, Shirley Newman took Miss Cherry, the swordsman of Bena, and Jacques and Joan were also with us.

We were eager to know what Captain Bronte was going to do with the bodies of these Naga warriors, but it seemed that Ying Li had no interest in it. Not only was she not interested, but her attitude towards Captain Bronte also became cold, and she even had some disgust, so she hid in the cabin and refused to come out.

Ying Li has been studying the preparation method of Rococo Flower recently. After wasting five bottles of "Devil's Blood", she still has no progress. However, Ying Li is the kind of person who will not give up easily once she is serious. Finally, under her sweet smile, I had to take out another bottle of "Devil's Blood" and give it to her.

Recently, while the ship was sailing on the sea, I helped Senior Dylan to sort out the magic patterns on the teleportation magic array. Senior Dylan did not expect that I would be so efficient in drawing magic runes. He worked hard to sort out the runes for two or three days. Usually, I only spent half a day to help him record them on the magic parchment.

Only Ying Li and Senior Dylan did not get off the ship. I was worried that Ying Li, Helena and Becky would not be able to deal with the emergency on the Belan, so I asked the Minotaur Luka and Kalancuo to stay to protect the three girls.

We walked down from the raft and stood on the beach, watching the sailors carrying the bodies of Naga warriors ashore. Several sailors cut the bodies of Naga warriors into several pieces under the guillotine and threw them into the boiling iron pot to cook.

When they saw this scene, Shirley Newman and Miss Cherry were the first to be unable to hold back. They covered their mouths and ran far away to a big tree to vomit.

Jacques also looked at the scene in front of him with a pale face, and also tried to hold back the nausea. He couldn't help but take a few steps back. Joan stood beside Jacques and asked him with a strange look on his face: "I heard that the lamp oil in the nobles' homes is deep-sea shark oil. Have you never seen the process of refining shark oil?"

There was a faint smell of fragrant oil in the air, but when he saw the Naga warriors boiling in the big iron pot, Jacques finally couldn't help but reach out and cover his mouth. He twisted his eyebrows with a look of pain on his face, and was speechless to Qiong. He said: "Who told you that the lamps in noble houses need this kind of disgusting lamp oil?"

"Are the lamps in your home really not made of shark oil that burns and emits a faint fragrance?" Qiong asked, blinking her big eyes.

Noah casually said to Joan: "Of course, the lamps in the house have wicks carved from moonstone, so there is no need to use these disgusting shark oils."

Knight Lant covered his mouth and nose lightly, took two steps forward, looked into the big iron pot, and frowned slightly.

When he returned, he explained to Noah and Jacques: "It turns out that this is deep sea shark oil. Even in the imperial capital, this thing is considered a rare thing that can be auctioned in the auction house. Many nobles are interested in this kind of burning and dispersing oil." I have a special preference for fragrant shark oil. This kind of shark oil is listed at the top of the Mensa family’s prohibited sales list, and it is a material that is not allowed to be traded within the Mensa family’s territory.”

At this time, Captain Bronte walked down from the raft behind him proudly. He held an earthen jar in each hand and said to us: "This shark oil is sold in Galapagos City. One jar Shark oil can be exchanged for a jar full of silver coins. Many adventure groups came from the Green Empire to poach the Naga Sea Tribe in the waters of the Vashj plane and refine this. Fish oil is expensive.”

Then, Captain Blondie said happily: "Haha, I never thought before that I could actually recover the bodies of so many Naga warriors in that sea area, which made me a windfall."

"In recent years, the relationship between the Naga Sea clan and the family in the Vashj plane has become worse and worse. Is it also due to this reason?" Noah turned to the Knight of Lant and asked.

Knight Lant nodded and said: "There must be part of the reason!"

At this time, I thought that Ying Li had seen the corpses of Naga sea warriors picked up from the deck of the ship before, and her face became a little weird, with a look of disgust on her face. It seemed that she knew that Captain Bronte wanted to kill these Naga warriors. The Jia warriors who refine the shark oil probably have an adventure group poaching the Naga Sea Clan over in Haiyinsi City. If you calculate carefully, hunting the Naga Sea Clan is far easier than hunting the sea beasts in the sea.

With a shy face, Captain Bronte approached Knight Lant and said to him with a proud look on his face: "Sir Knight, the corpses of warriors from the Naga Sea Tribe like mine were not poached, but picked up in a fair and honest manner. , For this reason, I also lost ten sailors. These recovered corpses cannot be considered as items within the ban, right?"
