My Magic Age

The Slave Trader sailed to the eastern waters of Vashki, where Dunai Island is located. It takes less than a day to sail from here to Dunai Island.

Along the way, I tried to contact the lords on various islands, but unfortunately, there was little success. Some lords even wanted to imprison us in exchange for the reward from Marquis Boris. However, because we had Senior Dylan, who was good at space magic, with us, we could easily escape with the help of the "Random Teleportation Scroll" when we met those lords who wanted to arrest us.

During the voyage of the Slave Trader, we occasionally encountered some merchant ships, but I found that those merchant ships would avoid us from a distance after seeing the Slave Trader, treating us like the plague god.

Later, we learned from an old sailor that the Slave Trader was completely a pirate ship. Because this kind of pirate ship needs to sail on the sea all year round, the hull has undergone a very extreme anti-corrosion treatment, that is, the entire hull skin has been burned by fire, so that the hull will not be eaten by insects, and there will be no shellfish parasitic on the bottom of the ship. However, the sea ships that have been burned by fire will become black and look very ugly.

The sails on the ‘Slave Trader’ are also old canvases that have been worn for many years, and some places have even been patched.

Merchant ships on the plane of Vashj basically do not use this kind of anti-corrosion treatment. Most merchant ships will apply a thick layer of raw lacquer on the surface of the hull, and the sails on those ships will not be so worn out. In short, the reason why those merchant ships avoid the ‘Slave Trader’ is that the ‘Slave Trader’ looks like a complete pirate ship.

I want to inquire about the news about the sea monster carefully on Dunai Island, so I can’t arouse the hostility of the residents of Dunai Island.

So I parked the ‘Slave Trader’ next to the reef stall more than 100 nautical miles away, stranded the ship on the beach, and made some camouflage. The black hull of the ‘Slave Trader’ blends in with the surrounding black reefs.

The sailors stayed on the ship to guard the ‘Slave Trader’.

Senior Dylan was also unable to accompany us this time. He stayed on the Slave Trader to complete our new idea and build a ship that can be teleported. He was worried that we would encounter danger on the island, so before leaving, he gave me a random teleportation scroll.

I asked Senior Dylan if there was anything he needed to purchase and could bring back from Dunai Island. Senior Dylan thought for a while and said, "Then try to bring as many magic parchments as possible. You may need to draw a lot of teleportation magic circle designs. In addition, you must pay attention to safety!"

I said to Senior Dylan, "You too, pay attention to safety!"

We took a small boat and left the reef area.

Yingli, Helena, Becky, Catalina, Kalancuo, Minotaur Luka, Deborah and I sat in the small boat. This is an oak boat that can carry ten people. The boat is painted with a layer of original varnish, and the dense wood grain can be clearly seen. The bow and stern at both ends of the boat are high and streamlined.

The minotaur Luka was in charge of the oars, stretching his muscular arms rhythmically and then retracting them.

Every time the oars were inserted diagonally into the sea, the boat would rush forward.

The sea seemed calm, but that was the feeling on the ‘Slave Trader’. When we sat on the boat, we felt how bumpy the sea was.

Of course, we didn’t plan to row to Dunai Island, which was more than 100 nautical miles away, just relying on a small boat. Instead, we planned to meet a merchant ship in the nearby waters and take the merchant ship to Dunai Island. .

Deborah flew in the air, constantly observing whether there were any ships coming from the surrounding waters.

Our luck was not bad. Our boat only drifted in the sea for half a day, and Deborah found the merchant ship heading to Dunai Island more than 20 nautical miles away from us.

Next, we worked together to row the boat to the front of the merchant ship’s channel and quietly waited for the merchant ship that was about to leave here.

When I saw the shadow of the ship, I opened the portal on the boat. Kalancuo, the minotaur Luka and Deborah returned to Xinliu Valley for temporary shelter. Only Yingli, Helena, Becky, Katarina and I stayed on the boat.

I took off my magic robe and changed into an extremely ordinary noble dress, looking like a young noble boy in distress.

Katarina wore a linen dress and wrapped her long red hair with a handkerchief. The little dancer in the dance troupe nine years ago has now grown into a warrior who has been on the battlefield and experienced death. Now she is wearing red makeup, and there is a long-lost shyness in her smile.

Although she and I have been facing each other day and night for a while, when my eyes fell on her white skin at the collar, I felt like I was seeing her for the first time in my life.

Ying Li was wearing a long dress of a court-style aristocratic girl. Her calm and elegant temperament could not be concealed in the crowd no matter where she went, even if she was wearing a rough linen dress. Ying Li had been branded with the mark of nobility.

Compared with Ying Li and Catalina, Helena and Becky did not hide their identities as swordsmen and fighters. Helena wore a crystal lion thorn tail light leather armor, and two scarlet long swords hung on her slender waist. Becky wore a set of chain mail, which was a kind of armor woven with magic metal wire, with a layer of soft leather lining inside, wearing gloves, and her green algae-like curly hair tied into a ponytail.

Then, we sat quietly on the boat, waiting for the sailors on the merchant ship to find us.

The sailors on the merchant ship found some young nobles in distress on the sea, and then shouted to the captain of the merchant ship. Then, the merchant ship began to lower its sails and slow down, and anchored about 50 meters away from us. The sailors on the merchant ship began to wave to me excitedly and shouted to us loudly: "Hey, row over here, row over here, you are saved!"

'Yes, we have been waiting for you here for a long time! 'I said to myself, and then I found an oar from the boat and waved it vigorously, but unfortunately the boat just turned in place and refused to move forward.

The sailors on the merchant ship laughed, but they saw that there were only a group of young and beautiful girls on the boat besides me, so the last bit of vigilance was eliminated. Several strong sailors stood on the side of the ship, and they jumped into the sea and swam towards me. They pushed our boat in the sea, approached the merchant ship little by little, and were pulled up by the rope hanging from the ship's hoist.

…

This is a merchant ship with a large draft. Although its entire hull is less than 50 meters long and the entire merchant ship looks like a pointed leather boot, its deck has been almost completely transformed into a cargo hold. Even the deck is full of various goods. The goods on the deck are covered with canvas, and it is unclear what the goods are.

Two sailors stood on the lookout tower of the main mast. The sail was embroidered with a pattern of a blue devil whale. The sea breeze blew the sail up again, and the merchant ship slowly increased its speed.

This is a three-masted sailing ship, and the stern shiphouse has only three floors. The sailors on the ship excitedly gathered on the deck, surrounding us in the middle.

A middle-aged man wearing a sea beast light leather armor and a captain's leather hat walked down from the shiphouse step by step. He had an exquisite Roman sword hanging on his waist and a monocular telescope on the other side. When he walked to the deck, the sailors around him avoided him and made way for him to walk to our side.

The middle-aged captain stood in front of me, slightly pulling the corners of his mouth, and said: "Young gentlemen and ladies, good afternoon, welcome to the "Nautilus". The destination of our merchant ship is Dunai Island. I hope the next trip can help you."

I gave him a noble salute, and then said to him: "Thank you for your help at sea. We are..."

I described myself as a noble who escaped from Conason Island and rushed to Dunai Island by boat. Unfortunately, our ship hit a reef and sank in the nearby waters. Only a few of us were put into the lifeboat and slowly drifted here with the ocean current.

The middle-aged captain kept looking at me, and after a long time, he shouted loudly: "Lydia, Lydia, take our new guests to their rooms to rest. Maybe they haven't slept for several nights. They still have plenty of time before dinner."

"Yes, Captain!" A lady on the ship responded.

I looked up at the stern of the ship and found that there were many women on the second floor. They were lying on the pull rod to watch the fun, pointing and commenting on us.

A woman wearing a red linen dress and a white apron on her chest soon appeared in front of me.

She had long brown hair, wheat-colored skin, a pair of big bell-like eyes, thick lips, and a friendly smile on her face when she saw us.

"Young gentlemen and ladies, come with me quickly. I think you may want to wash up a little, but now happens to be the period of water conservation on the "Nautilus". Although it is expected to arrive at Dunai Island in the evening, before we actually land on Dunai Island, everything is possible. Our ship must keep the reserve fresh water above the emergency line. There is no way for you to take a comfortable hot bath, so you can only wash up a little." Lydia greeted us very enthusiastically.

She led us to the stern ship, saying as she walked: "But if the voyage goes smoothly, we will arrive at Dunai Island at night, where there are several well-reputed hotels."

The sailors on the deck stared at the Yingli women like a group of noisy and smelly flies.

Delia scolded the sailors without any hesitation: "Go back to work, you bunch of toads, don't dream of being favored by noble swans. Instead of daydreaming, you might as well use your excess energy to clean the deck of the ship."

The sailors were afraid of the captain, but not Delia. Someone immediately said: "Forget it, Lydia, we will dock soon, and we still need to conserve our energy for a 'war'. There is probably a whole ship of cargo to unload, but we don't have the energy to help you clean the deck!"

Looking at the ship full of people, those women leaning on the railing with a curious look on their faces, looking at us constantly, looked like a group of rich people or nobles, they were wearing imitation court evening dresses, and each of them looked like a huge flower umbrella, with a waist on the upper body, but a large area of ​​snow-white breasts, and the cleavage was so deep.

The woman named Delia took us to the first floor of the ship and found a narrow room with only four beds. She called the sailors to move out the only desk and armchair in the room, and spread a camp bed on the empty floor and covered it with a thick quilt.

Delia said to me with an apologetic look: "I'm really sorry, the other rooms on the ship are overcrowded, and I really can't find any other empty rooms for you. Fortunately, we will arrive at Dunai Island soon. It should be okay to just rest for a while!"

"Of course!" I said to her: "We are very grateful for providing such a comfortable room to rest!"

As I said, I took out five silver coins from the purse on my waist and stuffed them into her hand.

Delia was not shy at all, and accepted it generously. She lifted her hair, smiled at me, and said: "If you need anything, just come to me."

Then her eyes fell on Helena and Catalina, and she blinked at me very ambiguously, and whispered: "Of course there are all kinds of special services, but I believe you don't need them!"

I didn't expect Delia to mention this at all, and it was a little embarrassing. I didn't expect that this merchant ship also had passenger services.

It seems that many people in the stern ship are guests on the ship. No wonder they still look leisurely and wait and see even when they are saving people.

After that, Delia turned and left. After a while, she led a few maids to fetch two basins of water for us, a plate of cookies, and a pot of light fruit wine.

I sat in the cabin for a while, then I took Catalina out of the door, stuffed a silver coin into the servant at the door of the ship, and asked her: "Where is the captain?"

The servant clenched the silver coin, wiped it hard on his lapel, and then quickly put it into his pocket and said to me: "Usually, our captain stays in the captain's room all day, but I think it's best not to disturb him at this time!".

The servant took me to the outside of the captain's room, looking a little embarrassed, and gently pointed to me inside, indicating that the captain was inside.

He seemed unwilling to stay at the door for a long time, and when he saw that his task was completed, he turned around and left.

At this time, the intermittent rapid breathing of men and women came from the captain's room. Catalina and I stood at the door of the captain's room and looked at each other.

I thought to myself: If I knock on the door to interrupt them at this time, even if I say some words of thanks to the captain of the merchant ship, I guess he will inevitably hate me! I didn't expect that the captain actually had the habit of taking a nap.

When a snow-white big leg was pressed against the glass window, Catalina and I hurriedly tiptoed out of the door of the captain's room and ran to the roof of the ship building. There was a not-so-big swimming pool on the top of the ship building, and there were several round tables and wooden chairs on the side, and several parasols.

Under the cool parasols, there were some gentlemen and ladies sitting, some were talking in a low voice, some were lying on the chairs and taking a nap, and some beautiful women were wearing cool gauze clothes and soaking in the swimming pool. These people all looked pampered and looked rich or noble.

The waiter at the rooftop door saw me walking up the stairs with Catalina, glanced at the noble badge on my chest, and ignored me.
