Weird Wizarding World

Weigh anchor!

Ding, ding, ding——

On the three-masted sailboat, four strong men pushed the wooden winch, and the heavy iron chain was recovered and entangled, making a clanging sound between collisions.

After a while, the heavy anchor rose from the bottom of the sea.

Then, the three-masted sailboat gradually started to move.

Colin stood on the raised stern of the boat, staring at the crowded wooden pier not far away, watching it gradually get further away.

Those fanatical crowds crowded the pier nearest to him, as well as the surrounding piers and beaches.

At this moment, he was reaching out to him emotionally, shouting something in his mouth.

What's more, they even jumped out of the sea and swam desperately towards him.

If you ignore the ferocious face, it feels like you are sending him off, but also like a reluctant farewell.

As the sailboat continued to move forward, the distance became wider.

The debris and stones thrown by the crowd could no longer touch the retreating ship.

He waved the Scepter of Folly and removed the expanded defense field of Hope.

As the understanding of witchcraft becomes deeper and deeper, there will be more and more changes that wizards can use.

But now, with the blessing of the Scepter of Stupidity, the once-limited Hope Defense Field, which has been upgraded to the official wizard's power, has even more uses.

Before that, he could not expand Hope's defensive force field to such a large range.

He withdrew his gaze, turned around and walked towards the middle of the ship, no longer looking at the fanatical crowd at the pier in the distance.

Not far away, Renee was throwing the bodies of several sailors off the sailboat.

Colin looked calm.

In my mind, I could see the sailors frantically blocking the sailing ship.

They have turned against the gods...

is his enemy.

Fortunately, after the remaining crew members left the island, they gradually recovered from their confused expressions, and the mental fog on their bodies stopped dissipating and returned to stability.

He breathed out the gold paper as he walked toward Renee.

Above, the progress of Hope's defensive force field was as he expected, without much change.

The cost of using the Rod of Folly to cast sorcery is the loss of knowledge.

But under the influence of gold paper, he can cast witchcraft, which will increase his knowledge.

The two obviously cancel each other out.

Specifically, more growth or more forgetting.

Mainly depends on how strong you want the increase to be.

At least the witchcraft such as Hope's defensive force field, which was the peak power of the apprenticeship, was upgraded to the intensity of ordinary witchcraft cast by ordinary formal wizards.

The knowledge forgotten is not much, and it is still within the acceptable range.

'But it still needs to be used with caution. ’ Colin warned himself secretly.

Within a certain range of amplification intensity, the Scepter of Folly will give priority to forgetting the relevant knowledge of the witchcraft it casts.

If it exceeds this range.

That would not only mean completely forgetting the witchcraft just cast, but also randomly forgetting any knowledge.

The scope of this arbitrary knowledge includes not only witchcraft knowledge, but also any other knowledge, even concepts, cognitions...

For wizards, certain important concepts and cognitions have been forgotten in this world.

Not only may it lead to confusion in the underlying logic and collapse of three perspectives,

It will even cause the aura of humanity and knowledge to collapse, leading to being polluted and alienated by oneself.

Master. Renee greeted him respectfully when she saw him coming.

Colin nodded slightly.

With a thought, the scepter with dark gold patterns dissipated and turned into golden patterns attached to his right arm.

He looked over Renee.

The blonde girl is still as delicate and beautiful as before.

At this moment, under his gaze, she stroked the blond hair beside her ear uncomfortably.

Colin's face was calm, as if he suddenly thought of something, he asked again:

Where's Arthur? Why didn't you see him?

Renee shook her head and replied:

Master, Arthur sent Demi and I to the east dock of the city before. After making an appointment to pick us up in the evening, he left alone again.

I don't know where I went.

Colin paused and nodded slightly.

No wonder I didn’t see my familiar carriage on the beach before...

As for where Arthur went.

He also knew it well——

It's nothing more than a tavern...or a brothel.

Although he did not restrain his slaves too much, he still knew their whereabouts.

Renee usually stays at home, either trying to develop new dishes, practicing her cooking skills, or playing with Demi.

As for Arthur, perhaps because he had a monthly salary, he would go to the tavern occasionally.

Colin knew all this and didn't care.

Anyway, just make sure you do your job well and don't cause trouble for him.

It's a pity that now...

Colin!

At this time, a shout suddenly came from the distance.

Colin raised his eyes and saw a three-masted sailboat on the sea not far away.

At this moment, Berkeley and others were standing on the deck looking at him.

…

The originally spacious captain's cabin of the three-masted sailing ship.

At this time, it seemed a bit crowded because it was packed with apprentices.

So... everything is just a plan of the gods?

Berkeley at the front murmured bitterly.

The voice was inexplicably dry.

The other apprentices were also silent, with undisguised shock and confusion on their faces.

Um.

Colin nodded slightly, waiting for them to digest the information.

Silence fell in the captain's room.

a long time.

Berkeley spoke first to break the silence.

What are your plans next?

The complex look on his face had completely subsided.

Now it has returned to its former calm appearance.

Even more determined than before.

Colin looked at Berkeley, a little surprised.

He thought Berkeley would be the last to recover.

after all……

Among the apprentices present, he is undoubtedly the one who has the deepest feelings for Lapp wizards and the Lapp school.

Unexpectedly...

When Fina and others heard Berkeley's question, they frowned subconsciously, with a bit of confusion on their faces.

Berkeley looked around, his eyes fell on Colin in front of him, he paused and asked:

Colin...Your Excellency, what are your plans next?

Hearing his name, Colin couldn't help but froze for a moment, feeling a little dazed.

For some reason, he recalled inexplicably the time when he and he traded arrow shooting skills at the guard station in the center of Black Rock City.

The memory is still very clear, it seems that not long ago...

It seems to have been a long and blurry time.

Outside the window, seabirds chirped and the waves rippled.

As far as the eye can see, there is no shadow of Blackstone Island.

After a moment of silence, he replied:

Bakanan Island...I plan to go to Bakanaan Island.

Berkeley was startled and said:

Bakanan Island...isn't close to here.

Colin nodded slightly, paused and asked:

What about you? Berkeley...Your Excellency.

I plan to go to Morley Island. Berkeley said slowly. He looked around the crowd and asked again:

what about you?

I want to continue to follow you, Mr. Berkeley. Martha spoke first.

I'll go with you too. Fina followed.

I'll go to Morley Island too. Flower hesitated and then agreed.

Compared to Bananca Island, Molli Island is closer and requires less time to sail at sea.

It also means safer.

Although Colin in front of him had shown great strength before.

But putting your own safety in the hands of others is obviously a fool's errand.

What's more, he would rather trust the more familiar Berkeley than Colin.

Colin was silent.

I had already expected this result.

It's just inevitable that there will be some parting sadness.

But this time.

Lord Colin, I want to go to Bananca Island with you!

The last thin male wizard, Murray, suddenly spoke.

Beside him, Berkeley frowned and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but remained silent in the end.

Okay. Colin glanced up at Murray and said calmly.

Next, after talking for a while again.

The four people in Berkeley got up and prepared to leave.

Colin sent them to the deck.

The sea breeze came to my face and blew my hair.

Flower looked at him with a complicated expression, and finally sighed:

I wish you safe sailing, Lord Colin.

Colin thanked him back.

Unknowingly, he had become accustomed to the new names and respect given to him by Flower and others.

Fina and Martha also came forward to say goodbye to him.

He also returned blessings one by one.

Finally, Berkeley approached.

I wish you a safe voyage, Sir Colin. He also wished him the same.

Then he glanced at Murray standing not far away and sighed.

I hope it's not what I thought...

The Colin in front of him was only an intermediate wizard apprentice before the ceremony.

But the witchcraft released now has reached the level of a formal wizard.

Everyone knows that Colin must have an adventure...

But not everyone can restrain greed.

He glanced at Colin again, then turned around to join Fina and others, and flew towards their three-masted sailboat not far away.

Colin watched as Huo and the others' figures gradually faded away, turning into small dots, and finally landed on the deck of the three-masted sailboat.

After retracting his gaze, he turned his head and glanced at Murray who was standing aside, then turned around and walked towards the captain's cabin.
