Chapter 21 021: Goodbye
The mission Luo Xi received required him to go to the human world to treat a noble.
The ancestor of this noble had once met a wizard from the Elemental Castle. Before leaving, the wizard gave the other family a copper coin and promised: "If you run into trouble in the future, you can go to the nearby Whispering Forest, find a tree hole, speak out your problem, and then throw the copper coin in."
The copper plate contains the wizard's magic, which can absorb the sound in the tree hole.
In addition, the ravens in the forest are raised by wizards and will collect things with magical reactions. Not long ago, this copper coin with the noble's request was sent back to the castle and handed over to its original owner.
It's just that the wizard has been busy with experiments recently and has no time to go there in person, so this mission came about.
Luo Xi was not a person who liked to procrastinate. After getting the mission scroll, he simply packed his luggage and set off on his journey the next day.
Before leaving, Nicole handed the guardian ring in her hand to Luo Xi. This was a very precious wizard-level magic tool with a protective spell embedded in it. It could summon a protective shield that could not be broken by anyone below the wizard level.
While handing the ring to Luo Xi, she gave him a lot of instructions: "You must wear the ring at all times, don't act rashly when you encounter danger, and remember that your own safety is your top priority at all times and in all places."
"Remember to eat on time and don't kick off the quilt at night"
"Don't cheat, I'll be sad"
"Come back soon when you're done. I'm waiting for you."
At this moment, she didn't look like a witch, but more like a little woman in a farmhouse, but it was this appearance that made people reluctant to leave.
After kissing her cheek, Luo Xi set off on his journey with reluctance.
Started the first journey to the wizarding world.
That night, crows were flying across the crossing.
Luo Xi's destination is Blackstone Castle in the Kingdom of Karel in the human world. The two places are thousands of miles apart and there is no connecting traveler's gate. If he wants to go out, he must use some means of transportation, and the ferry is one of them.
The entire South Coast Witch Territory is dotted with stations set up by the Alliance. You can reach the outermost edge by ferry, and then walk for a few days to reach the human world.
"It wouldn't be so troublesome if we had a flying broom."
While standing and waiting for the boat, Luo Xi couldn't help but think of some common flying wizard tools in the wizarding world, such as flying brooms, flying monsters, alchemical wings, airships, etc. If they were used, it would only take a few days to cross the wizarding world at the fastest.
Unfortunately, the price is too high. Luo Xi went to the market to ask for the price. Even the cheapest flying broom costs tens of thousands of magic stones, not to mention the alchemical wings that cost tens of thousands of magic stones and even more expensive airships. It is far beyond his affordability.
"Maybe I can buy a book on alchemy to study, and then find some materials to try to make one myself." After three years, Luo Xi has completely mastered the basics of alchemy and can try to make some witchcraft tools.
"Ding!~" At this moment, the bell hanging on the dock made a crisp sound.
Luo Xi raised his head and looked towards the other side of the river, and saw a small boat slowly floating on the calm river surface. The boat had a white hull and a high-raised bow, like a crescent moon.
A lantern was hung on the bow of the boat, and its pale yellow light illuminated a small circle of the river surface around it.
"Da Da Da"
A crisp sound of footsteps came from the middle of the ship, where there was a small cabin with a vaulted roof, and a man in a cloak walked out of the cabin.
The man came to the bow and patted, and the boat slowly stopped in front of the dock.
He then said to Luo Xi on the dock: "Come up."
Luo Xi did not get on the boat immediately, but tilted his head to look at the man's face for a while. He did not expect that the man in front of him was an acquaintance, the wizard Seno who brought him to the wizard world.
However, the other party obviously did not recognize him. Seeing that he was still not getting on the boat, he asked impatiently: "Are you leaving or not?"
"Oh, sorry." Luo Xi hurriedly boarded the boat.
He then took the initiative to greet him: "Wizard Senor, don't you remember me?"
The wizard Senor was stunned, turned his head and looked at Luo Xi for a while, and asked in confusion: "Who are you?"
It's not that he is short-sighted. After all, there are a lot of people coming and going every day. In addition, Luo Xi has grown taller and his appearance has changed a lot in the past three years. The two of them didn't have much interaction originally.
Luo Xi smiled and introduced herself: "I am Luo Xi, the 362nd apprentice of the Elemental Castle. It was you who brought me here from the Vesona Islands three years ago."
"It turns out to be you!"
Now Wizard Seno remembered that this apprentice who was able to catch up with the fourth-level talent in the test three years ago had left a great impression on him.
He looked Luo Xi up and down: "You have grown a lot taller and stronger."
When he saw the mid-level apprentice badge on Luo Xi's chest, he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "You have been promoted to mid-level apprentice?"
Luo Xi nodded: "I was lucky not long ago."
Wizard Senor looked very surprised: "It's not just luck. You were able to advance to an intermediate apprentice in three years. This is enough to show that you have put in a lot of effort during this period."
Surprise seemed mixed with a little regret. He sighed and said, "It's rare. Children who have just entered the wizarding world are always so happy that they forget themselves. They think they are no longer ordinary but extraordinary. Most of them indulge in the magic and fun of the magical world and start to enjoy life. Few of them can stick to their original intentions and continue to be diligent and self-disciplined."
He went on to say: "I hope you can keep persisting and not slack off."
"Comfort and laxity are like a cup of sweet honey wine. If you are not careful, you will be intoxicated and unable to extricate yourself. When you come to your senses, your temples are already gray."
When Wizard Seno first came to the wizarding world, he was also a favored child with an overall score of 85. Unfortunately, after achieving some results, he became complacent, gradually forgot his original intention, and his practice became perfunctory.
Nearly a hundred years have passed, and the man who originally aspired to become a great and famous wizard has ultimately become just an insignificant ferryman.
Luo Xi nodded and said seriously: "Luo Xi listens to your teachings."
"Complete a teaching listening session, time +6 days."
Then he asked in doubt, "You are not on the boat anymore? Er, I mean the ferry that picks up the apprentices."
The Sino wizard smiled and said, "Yes, I signed a new position after the agreement expired. I have been traveling across the ocean for decades, so it's time to change it."
Luo Xi asked curiously, "Have you been on the ship for decades?"
Wizard Senor nodded. "Basically, every position needs someone to be on duty. You will know when you sign the agreement in the future. Don't think it's a long time. For wizards, decades will pass quickly."
"Okay, go in."
Luo Xi walked into the cabin, which was also decorated with space magic. It looked small from the outside but was very spacious inside. An aisle extended inward, with two rows of seats on each side, for a total of dozens of rows. It seemed as if they were not sitting on a small boat on the river but a luxury ferry on the sea.
There were not many people in the cabin, only a dozen or so people sitting there bustling about. Everyone was doing their own things, either reading a book or resting with their eyes closed. The entire cabin was quiet.
Luo Xi looked at his ticket and quickly found his seat.
As soon as I sat down, I heard a vibration in the cabin, and then I heard a strange voice shouting at the top of its voice: "The ship is about to leave! The ship is about to leave! Next stop, Red Devil's Mill! Next stop, Red Devil's Mill!"
Luo Xi looked in the direction of the sound. It came from the upper right corner of the cabin, where there was a birdcage hanging with a white parrot inside.
“It’s like taking a bus.”
After silently complaining, Luo Xi sat on the chair. His seat was right next to the window, so he could enjoy the scenery.
Outside the window, the scenery began to move slowly, and the magical journey began (End of this chapter)
