Chapter 225 The Protagonist's Cheap Sister in a Dual-Transmigration Wizard Novel (10)
Under the watchful eyes of those around them, the large ship slowly sailed towards the port and soon arrived.
When the ship docked, Jiang Yue also sensed an unknown distorted force field, which should be the protective shield of the large ship. Jiang Yue's current strength was not enough to set up such a protective force field. No wonder he could traverse the entire continent. He couldn't do it without some kind of protective barrier. It seems that he won't be bored after boarding the ship.
After the large ship docked, under the watchful eyes of the surrounding crowd, a number of gray-robed figures gradually emerged from the ship. Jiang Yue sensed their strength; even the weakest among them possessed the power of a Grand Knight, while the leader was even stronger than a Super Knight. After they had established a perimeter around the ship, many more people disembarked one after another. Some were setting up stalls to sell goods, some were representing the academy to recruit students, and others were simply passing by.
People with children swarmed towards the inspection area at the port, while some nobles carried large boxes to buy what they needed. Victor led Jiang Yue and Model to a stall selling ship tickets.
"Sir, please purchase two tickets to the Arad Continent."
The continent of Arad is the closest continent to the continent of Yuchuang. The energy level there is much higher than that of the continent of Yuchuang, and people who leave the continent of Yuchuang basically go there.
"80 magic stones per person."
Victor pulled a cloth bag from his pocket. Jiang Yue and Moder had already given Victor the magic stones beforehand, because Victor thought it was safer that way. Otherwise, if the two young people took them out of their pockets, people would think they had a lot of magic stones. After paying for the tickets, Victor led the two off the ship.
After disembarking, Victor didn't go home. He found a quiet place, looked around, and said to the two of them, "You two are siblings. You must protect each other when you get out there. It's very dangerous out there. I've sponsored many people before, but so far, none of them have come back alive."
Victor's tone was full of worry and concern, and his eyes revealed his concern for the two of them. He gently patted their shoulders, as if to give them strength and courage.
After Victor finished speaking, Jiang Yue gave him a hug: "Grandpa, don't worry. If things aren't going well out there, I'll come home and let you support me. Don't look down on me."
Victor smiled and patted Jiang Yue on the back: "Grandpa welcomes you back anytime."
Although the ship wouldn't depart for another few days, Jiang Yue and Moder boarded early, just in case something went wrong. After putting their luggage away in their room, they went up to the deck, where there were even more stalls. Jiang Yue and Moder browsed around and found a stall selling spatial bags. Jiang Yue asked about the price first; two cubic bags cost 20 magic stones.
Jiang Yue didn't rush to buy anything. Instead, she and Moder browsed the stalls on the deck. After going around, they found that the prices were all the same. She didn't know if the people on the ship had agreed on it or if that was the price of the space bags. In the end, Jiang Yue bargained with the stall owner and bought two space bags for 18 magic stones each.
After making the purchase, Jiang Yue observed the expressions of the people nearby. None of them looked like they were being ripped off, so Jiang Yue knew that the price wasn't outrageously expensive. Actually, neither of them lacked space, but when they were outside, they needed something to cover their tracks. Jiang Yue left a mental imprint on the spatial bag, so only she could open it.
After buying her things, Jiang Yue looked at the people being tested for aptitude below the ship. People from noble families like Ashley's had already been tested at the appropriate age. Now, those being tested were mostly minor nobles or people sponsored by major nobles. After looking at them for a while, the best aptitude in this batch was fourth grade, which was even better than Jiang Yue's initial aptitude.
As soon as the fourth-class aptitude was announced, the wizard in charge of the test beamed with joy. He was just like a third-party recruitment teacher who had been outsourced. Finding a student with good aptitude made the trip worthwhile. After the last apprentice finished the test, the person in charge of the test said, "Those under the age of eighteen who are to be promoted to first-class apprentice or above, stand behind me."
Several people stepped out from the crowd and stood behind him. These people were essentially the sect's menial servants, and they needed to pass an assessment before being accepted into the sect. Jiang Yue and Moder didn't move; they planned to decide after arriving on the Arad Continent.
The large ship stayed at the dock for three days and was scheduled to set sail on the fourth night. Victor did not come for the first three days, but he came looking for him on the night before he left. Jiang Yue saw that he still had some injuries on his body, so she quickly took out a bottle of healing potion to give him to drink, but he waved his hand and refused, telling Jiang Yue to keep it.
He then took out more than a dozen magic stones from his pocket and divided them between the two. Jiang Yue sighed inwardly but still accepted them. Model was silent for a moment before accepting them as well. Just before the ship set sail, Victor patiently gave the two some more instructions. The two listened very carefully. The ship sailed quickly and soon Victor's figure was out of sight. Jiang Yue and Model stayed on the deck for a while before returning to their respective rooms.
Jiang Yue lay down for a while to calm herself down and observed the room. The room was very spacious. Although it was located on a ship, the interior decoration was quite good. Moreover, it seemed to have been enchanted with a seamless stretching spell, making the space inside appear much larger than it did from the outside.
Two weeks later.
Jiang Yue and Model didn't communicate much in the past two weeks. Jiang Yue stayed in her room reading. She had someone buy her some history books about the wizarding world. As for Model, he probably went back to Earth. After all, it was so boring on the ship. Every day was the same and the food wasn't good.
Another month passed, and with only three days left before the ship reached the Arad continent, Model came out of his room for a drive. Jiang Yue had been hoping that, like in the novel, a dark wizard would come to steal the ship and the students, but unfortunately, reality was not like the novel, and Model, the protagonist, did not follow that kind of path.
After meeting up with Model during overtime, Model asked Jiang Yue, "Isabel, which faction do you plan to join?"
"Me? The Emerald Tower of Emerald City, and you?"
"The Blood Ring, then we may have to part ways."
"Is that so? Then let's buy a communication device and add each other as friends after we get off the ship, so we don't lose contact."
"Um."
Three days later, the ship arrived at the port of Arad Continent. Jiang Yue and Moder packed their luggage into their spatial bags early. After disembarking, they did not rush to separate. They went to a shop to buy a communicator and added each other as friends. Then they found a hotel to stay in. Even if they were to join a faction, they had to do some research first. Who could trust things on paper?
In the following days, the two were busy inquiring about information about the factions they wanted to join. In the end, they even spent some magic stones to buy information from someone similar to an all-knowing scholar. After confirming that the information was not much different from what was in the book, Model left first. This was because the Emerald Tower could be joined at any time, while the Blood Ring would have to wait another five years after this year, and Model did not want to waste five years.
