Chapter 4 004: Giant Whale and Arrival
The wizard ship, which was dozens of meters long, was already very large, but in front of this whale, it was like a toy, instantly covering the entire sailboat.
At this time, running away had completely lost its meaning. Luo Xi just subconsciously hugged Nicole tightly in his arms.
Just as the apprentices on the deck were about to be crushed into pulp by the hill, something strange happened.
A thin film suddenly emerged around the sailboat, enveloping the entire hull like a big bubble.
The next second, the giant whale collided with the sailboat.
“Boom!”
The sailboat shook violently, and the apprentices on the deck flew high up like flying beans, and then fell heavily on the deck.
Having said that, the huge whale was isolated outside the membrane and did not fall onto the deck, so the apprentices on the ship escaped a catastrophic disaster.
“Ah, that hurts!”
"Arm, my arm is broken!"
On the deck, there were constant wailing sounds. The apprentices who were unprepared had some bleeding heads, some even had broken limbs, it was a miserable sight.
"Are you okay? Luo Xi!" Nicole asked about Luo Xi's condition nervously.
Just now, because she was held by Luo Xi, when the two of them bounced up and hit the ground, Luo Xi served as a cushion, so she was basically not injured.
"cough!"
Luo Xi coughed and felt a sharp pain in his back. The ribs in his chest seemed to be broken. The intense pain made his face pale and cold sweat kept pouring out.
But there was no point in saying anything more at this time, so he forced himself to say, "It's okay."
"Complete an effort to endure pain, resulting in a critical hit, time +6 days."
The system prompt sounded suddenly, and Luo Xi didn't know whether he should cry or laugh at this time.
Nicole's eyes suddenly turned red: "How can it be okay? You look pale."
If Luo Xi hadn't been holding her just now, he wouldn't have fallen so badly.
She blamed herself and said: "It's all my fault. It's all because I eat too much."
At this moment, a loud shout interrupted the conversation between the two: "Damn beast!"
Wizard Seno appeared on the deck. His aura at this time was completely different from usual. Strange runes appeared on his black cloak, and he held a long two-handed staff in his hand.
His black cloak fluttered in the wind, and his whole body was suspended in the air, staring coldly at the giant whale in front of him.
After the giant whale collided with the sailboat, it fell back into the sea. It seemed that this collision had hit it hard, and it took a long time for it to turn over.
It didn't move forward, but let out a long wail and then remained motionless.
Wizard Seno was stunned. He flew forward to check and found that the giant whale was dead.
The giant whale seemed to have suffered a massacre. Its body was covered with scars and there was a big hole on the top of its head. The brain center inside was crushed. Theoretically, it should have died long ago.
The reason why it can still move is because a kind of "sea lice" has been placed in its head. These little things can replace the brain center to control the whale's body after special magical arrangement.
However, the previous collision also destroyed the structure inside. The sea lice broke away from their original positions and destroyed the magic structure, which caused the giant whale to stop.
Wizard Senor frowned: "These dark wizards!"
Such methods mostly come from dark wizards, who have no respect for life and act in a cruel and bloody style.
Most of the 68 apprentices on board were injured in the collision. The one with the most serious injuries had part of his head deflated, which looked very scary.
However, with the help of magic, the apprentices were properly treated, including the apprentice with a deflated head, who miraculously recovered.
This was also the first time that Luo Xi experienced the wonder of magic. Listening to the obscure spells of the wizard Seno, he felt that his body could be twisted and deformed like plasticine, and the broken ribs naturally twisted back to their original position. It was very strange.
There were storms for the next few days and they had to stay in the cabin. Feeling a little bored, Luo Xi borrowed some books about the wizarding world from Nicole and began to read them seriously in the cabin.
"Complete a book reading session, time +1 day."
After reading these books, Luo Xi has a better understanding of this mysterious world. The first and biggest feeling he has is how big it is.
It's really too big! Take the South Coast Alliance, where they are going now, for example. Its geographical scope is as large as the Eurasian continent on Earth combined, but it is only a small area in the south of the Wizarding Continent and only belongs to the second-level wizarding domain.
Wizards call the area where wizards live the wizard domain, and divide it into levels according to the scope and resources of the wizard domain, with the highest being level five and the lowest being level one.
To the west of the South Coast Alliance is the first-level wizard domain, the Dark Forest, and to the north are the second-level wizard domain, the ancient ruins. Only by going east can one reach a higher-level wizard domain, which is closer to the center of wizard civilization.
In addition to the main continent, there is also the deep underground world, the boundless ocean world, and even the mysterious and unknown sky world, which are beyond the limits of human imagination.
“It’s a big world!”
Amazed in his heart, Luo Xi closed the book and looked out the window.
Outside, all you can see are the raging wind, rain, lightning and thunder, waves one after another, the sea is boundless, full of mystery and unknown.
The storm lasted for a week before it stopped. Luo Xi stayed in the cabin for the whole week, practicing hard and reading hard.
"Complete one hard training, time point +2 days."
"Complete a hard reading, time +3 days."
"Complete one hard breath."
After one week and adding the time he had accumulated before, Luo Xi’s accumulated time has reached 128 days.
Ten of those days were spent by Luo Xi on learning the rune language, and he achieved mastery in one fell swoop.
There will be no problem once you have mastered the basic reading and writing of Rune Language, and there will be no obstacles when you start learning magic in the wizarding world, so Luo Xi did not continue to spend time on it.
There was no urgent need for cultivation recently, so after thinking about it, he stockpiled the remaining time in case of emergency.
The next day after the sky cleared up, Luo Xi and his friends finally arrived at their destination.
White Gull Port, a human port on the southern coast of the Wizarding Continent.
“We’re finally here!”
After coming down the gangway, Ryan breathed a long sigh of relief. Although the boat was good, it was still a bit uncomfortable to be confined to a small area every day for nearly two months of sailing.
"The voyage is finally over." Jobri nodded with empathy.
Luo Xi stood on the dock, looking at the port ahead. He thought that the Wizarding Continent would be more prosperous than his hometown, but it seemed that they were actually about the same.
It is also a complex of low wooden buildings, dirty alleys, bumpy dirt roads, etc.
It seems that magic has not benefited human society.
"let's go."
After counting the number of people, Wizard Seno led them out of the dock and walked towards the block ahead.
At this time, Luo Xi noticed a strange phenomenon. Most of them were children, so theoretically they should be very conspicuous.
However, the people on the street seemed to have noticed them completely, and no one even glanced at them along the way.
After crossing two streets, Wizard Seno finally stopped in front of a tavern.
The pub was bustling with people, but just like the pedestrians outside, the drinkers seemed completely invisible to them.
Wizard Seno led them into the tavern in a swaggering manner and went up to the second floor where there was a room that looked like a storage room. It was filled with all kinds of utensils, and in the middle was a large wardrobe.
Standing in front of the wardrobe, Wizard Seno picked up his wooden staff and knocked on it.
Suddenly, the old wardrobe seemed to come alive again. Strange runes lit up one after another on the door, and then it opened with a creaky sound.
A dense forest appeared in the cabinet. The trees blocked out the sun and it was gloomy. A muddy path meandered into the distance.
Wizard Senor said, "Go in."
Everyone stared in amazement, obviously astonished by this magical scene. The seemingly shabby wardrobe turned out to be connected to a forest when opened.
The apprentices walked one by one into the wardrobe and went into the forest.
When Luo Xi looked back, he saw a huge oak tree with a big hole in the middle of the tree, and in the hole was the tavern.
"This is the Traveler's Gate."
Just as Luo Xi was surprised, Wizard Senor came to his side and explained: "In order to facilitate travel, the wizards of the alliance used space magic to build some doors in various places. Through these doors, you can cross long distances and facilitate the journey."
Luo Xi asked in confusion: "Can it be built anywhere?"
The Sino wizard shook his head and said, "Of course not. Only places with space cracks and stable space coordinates have the conditions to build a traveler's gate. Otherwise, the Alliance can just build a traveler's gate on the other side of the sea. Why would we have to travel such a long distance?"
That's true. Sino Wizard continued, "It would be best to make a traveler's map in the future. It will have detailed coordinates of each traveler's gate and the conditions for use. This will save you a lot of time."
"In the wizarding world, timing is everything."
The journey continues.
The forest was very quiet, with only the occasional chirping of birds.
Thick branches and leaves blocked the sunlight, and there was also a layer of white mist, making the already dim forest even more blurry, as if one had walked into some deserted primeval forest.
After walking on this muddy path for more than ten minutes, a camp appeared in Luo Xi's sight.
