Chapter 256: Preparing to Set Sail



The trident in Prince Haz's hand fell directly onto the beach.

He covered his head with his hands and knelt on one knee in pain! Obviously, the death of the strange conch had caused a certain amount of mental backlash to him.

Richard did not continue to attack Prince Haz. After all, this was not a life-and-death battle.

The wizards of the Slippery Blade Clan on the side immediately shouted loudly:

"Humans, we surrender!"

"No! I can still fight!" At this time, Prince Haz stared at Richard with bloodshot eyes and roared.

The death of the strange conch not only caused a mental backlash to Prince Haz, but also made him feel even more uncomfortable.

The failure in the battle with humans made him lose face, and at the same time, he lost the ownership of the ruins, which was a real loss of interests.

In addition, the strange conch was a supernatural creature that he had tamed for many years and had accompanied him in battles for many years, but he did not expect that it would die on this nameless island.

"Prince Haz, if you continue like this, your chances of winning are not high!" said a Slippery Blade Naga.

"Yes, Your Highness, please think twice." Several other Slippery Blade Naga Wizards agreed.

Several people quickly stepped forward and supported Prince Haz.

After Prince Haz looked at Richard deeply, he got on the giant seahorse without looking back. A group of Slippery Blade Naga Wizards followed closely behind him and disappeared from everyone's sight.

After the wizard of the Slippery Blade Naga clan left, Richard, wearing a silver mask, suddenly became the focus of the human wizards present.

You know, if Richard hadn't stepped in to turn the tide just now, the battle between humans and the sea people would have been won by the sea people without a doubt.

Now, with the help of Richard, the human side has obtained the right to explore the ruins of the Ancient Tidal Academy.

The surrounding human wizards came forward one after another and said to Richard with a smile:

"My Lord from the Ring of North, your strength is truly admirable."

"Yes, sir, your strength is unparalleled among first-level wizards."

"Sir, do you have any plans for the subsequent exploration of the ruins?"

“.”

Numerous compliments flooded into Richard's ears like a tide. The wizards' erudition was deeply reflected in their flattery. The compliments said by the previous person were completely different from the flattering words of the next person.

This made Richard feel helpless. He rubbed his brows with his fingers and sighed:

"They are a bunch of smart people. They are not very strong, but they are all good at speaking."

Some even tried to use words to determine the origins of Richard, the powerful wizard, and Richard's ideas about the next exploration of the ruins.

After all, anyone can see that Richard is a wizard who specializes in the undead, and there is no conflict between him and wizards like them who specialize in water.

But in the secret realm left over from ancient times, there might be some rare herbs that Richard needs.

If Richard took advantage of his victory over Prince Haz and took a bigger piece of the cake, they would be able to do nothing but watch.

That's why they are so anxious.

At this time, Daenerys and Iris also walked forward with smiles on their faces.

Richard saw Daenerys coming over and couldn't help but look happy. He said, "Everyone, Her Highness Daenerys is the official representative for this negotiation with the Sea Clan. Regarding the subsequent exploration and arrangements of the secret realm, I entrust Her Highness Daenerys as my full representative. Her opinion is my opinion."

The many wizards around looked at each other, and then focused their attention on Daenerys again.

It was thought that this powerful and mysterious wizard would lead the subsequent exploration of the ruins, but unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, the initiative returned to Daenerys.

This made Daenerys feel quite pleasantly surprised and a little embarrassed at the same time. She thought to herself, "Richard is still the same, so slick!"

But who made her the official representative of the Kingdom of Helun?

Daenerys could only give up the idea of ​​talking to Richard for the time being, and calm down to discuss with everyone the arrangements for the person to break the witch circle, as well as the arrangements for subsequent exploration matters, etc.

"Everyone, let's first arrange wizards who are proficient in magic arrays to break the outer defensive magic array." A white-bearded old man spoke.

"Yes, as for how to distribute the resources in the secret realm, everyone can express their opinions after the witch formation is cracked."

“.”

After a long time, Daenerys was able to extricate herself, and she handed over the remaining minor issues to Iris.

When Daenerys came to Richard, she didn't know how to start for a moment.

The man next to her was both familiar and unfamiliar to her.

And every time I face him, I always feel uneasy.

Especially when Richard stared at her without blinking, she immediately lowered her head shyly.

Daenerys found that she had so many questions to ask Richard, but she didn't know where to start.

But soon, Daenerys adjusted her mentality, blushing and saying:

"Richard, why are you here?"

Richard smiled slightly and said softly, "Do you remember our agreement? Half a year ago, we agreed that if I became a formal wizard, I could come to Pentos to find you."

“Finally I succeeded!”

"By the way, shouldn't you keep your promise?" Richard said, staring at Daenerys' pretty face seriously.

He just changed the concept.

In fact, Daenerys did not promise Richard anything for the six-month agreement. It was just an agreement.

It was agreed that if Richard could become a formal wizard within half a year, he could try to come to Pentos to find her.

"What, what promise?" Daenerys asked shyly and confusedly, fluttering her big eyes.

Richard moved a little closer and whispered something in Daenerys' ear.

Daenerys blushed immediately.

"I never promised that!"

"Hey! Then why did you ask me to meet you in Pentos?" Richard teased with a smile.

“I, I.”

Just as Daenerys was confused and didn't know how to answer, suddenly, a noise came from the direction of the ruins.

"The defensive magic array has been broken!"

“I didn’t expect it to be cracked so quickly!”

“.”

I didn't expect that the defensive magic formation, which was originally expected to take at least half a day to break, could be broken so quickly.

It was really beyond everyone's expectations.

This made it impossible for the conversation between the two to continue.

Because next, we will start to busy ourselves with exploration related matters.

Daenerys smoothed her hair and said, "Richard, let's go over and take a look together."

"By the way, if we explore the secret realm later, can you come with me?"

"Of course!" Richard nodded and agreed immediately.

The two then walked towards the crowd.

This allowed the entire task of cracking the witch formation to be completed at an unexpected speed.

After a wizard who had practiced the art of clones conducted a preliminary exploration of the secret realm and confirmed that the space inside was stable, many wizards present could not help but become excited.

But after the good news, there is bad news.

This secret place used to grow and cultivate rare herbs has been unattended for a long time, and a large number of high-value rare herbs have withered for various reasons.

The only herbs left are waterroot, heather and tamarind.

This could not help but disappoint many wizards, including Daenerys.

But this does make the distribution of spoils easier.

After all, if the value is not great, it is easier to reach a consensus through discussion.

In the end, Richard also got a considerable amount of tamarind and heather, but since these were commonly used herbs in water-based combat potions, Richard gave them to Daenerys.

"Flutter~"

A blood falcon flew in front of Richard.

This is a message from Stephanie Blood Falcon.

"Master, the latest news is that Senior Meiluo has learned in advance that the route from White Harbor City to Lolas Peninsula has been suspended, so she has taken a detour from Seaweed City to Lolas Peninsula."

"From White Harbor City, every once in a while, there will be special ships heading to the Loras Peninsula on the Vitroll Continent. These ships are specially made ocean-going ships, and are completely different from ordinary offshore ships."

"The next batch of ships bound for the Loras Peninsula will set sail in the next two days."

This news immediately made Richard frown.

Unexpectedly, even though he and his group had arrived at Baigang City ahead of time, they still missed Meiluo.

However, this also proves that Meiluo's father or family is probably in danger, otherwise Meiluo would not be so anxious to return.

Daenerys, who was standing by, saw Richard's slightly frowned brow and said:

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Richard nodded and said, "I may need to go to the Loras Peninsula in the Vitrol Continent as soon as possible."

"Hey! You are going to the Vitrol Continent too. The Loras Peninsula is not far from here. Starting from White Harbor City, it will take about half a month to sail on the sea to reach the Loras Peninsula."

"By the way, Richard, can you tell me what you are doing in the Lorath Peninsula?" Daenerys asked with a little curiosity.

"Well, it involves clues to my subsequent meditation method." Richard paused and continued.

Li Cha feels that he can still speak freely about Daenerys.

However , he certainly avoided matters involving Meiluo's family.

"If everything goes well, I will go to Basileus Island in the Summer Sea and Ivers Forest in the Vitroll Continent."

"First, I seem to have heard of Basileus Island. The Ivers Forest on the continent of Veterol is tens of thousands of miles away from the Lorras Peninsula. It seems that it is unlikely that you will be able to come back in a short time." Daenerys judged after a little thought.

"Hiss! Is it so far?" Richard couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

On the map, only the characteristic landforms are marked, and the distance can only be estimated.

Richard didn't expect it to be so far away.

"I need to go back to Pentos, and then I will go to Hydrashia College. Richard, if you want to go to Ivers Forest in the Vitlor continent, you can make a detour to Hydrashia College. Then, I will accompany you to Ivers Forest."

Daenerys thought for a moment and spoke.

This made Richard slightly stunned.

Richard didn't expect that Daenerys would be willing to accompany him to the Forest of Iverson.

The other party's statement made Richard feel happy.

"That's great! It's settled then."

"Well, you go to White Harbor first, and we'll see you then. This is my communication mark." Daenerys waved her slender fingers, and a strange symbol condensed in the air.

Richard quickly wrote it down and left his communication mark to Daenerys.

The communication mark can only be used for close-range communication. When Richard arrives at Hydrashia College next time, he will be able to contact Daenerys easily.

"Thank you this time!"

“This is what I should do.”

Half an hour later, Richard rode on the horned hippogryph and headed for White Harbor.

Although I didn't have much close contact with Daenerys this time.

But the other party had already shown signs of accepting him, which made Richard feel very happy! In less than half a day, Richard arrived at Baigang City.

When he landed at the Town Hall Square, he saw a familiar figure waiting there.

It was Stephane.

"Master, I understand that the fastest ship to the Loras Peninsula will depart tomorrow. This time, due to the suspension of navigation, a lot of goods have been squeezed out of the port, so three ocean-going ships will leave for the Loras Peninsula at the same time tomorrow."

"What the Governor of White Harbor, Count Andreas Lynch, wants you to take care of the safety of the fleet. For this, the City Hall will give you the compensation you deserve."

Richard thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"Of course there is no problem with that. If we travel by ship, and something unexpected happens and the ship is destroyed and people die, we will be in a difficult situation in the vast ocean."

"By the way, didn't the City Hall arrange for wizards to accompany the ship?" Richard asked puzzledly.

"Yes, Master, but they are not very strong. Generally, there is only one official wizard on each ship, and his strength is probably at the beginning or middle level of the first level."

"Master, Count Andreas and I will respond to your request." Stephana explained.

Richard nodded. ——The next morning.

When Richard and Stephana, accompanied by Archon Count Andreas, the sheriff and others, arrived at the White Harbor Pier, the slightly salty sea breeze blew in their faces, the white waves beat against the wall of the ship, and the cries of seagulls were endless.

This made Richard feel like he was about to go on a seafaring adventure.

He couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Soon, everyone arrived next to three five-masted ships.

There were six people dressed like captains and wizards waiting for Richard and his party by the ship.

"Sir Richard, this is Captain Stanchi Dora of the Mobis." Archon Count Andreas introduced him enthusiastically to Richard and Stephana.

"It's an honor to meet you, Lord Richard."

"This is"

“.”

Richard glanced casually and found that among the three wizards in the team, the leader was a middle-aged man. His strength had reached the middle stage of level one, and fire energy ions were lingering all over his body. It seemed that he was a wizard majoring in fire.

When the other party saw Richard for the first time, he came forward and greeted him enthusiastically:

"Sir, the battle where you overpowered Prince Haz on the island was truly thrilling!"
