Chapter 156 Whalebone

The sea breeze with a hint of salty smell blew the sails Slightly bulging. Occasionally, the sound of the roaring wind overwhelms the sound of the sea constantly washing the hull. At this time, the sailors on the ship would nervously climb up the mast, looking for dark clouds and storms that might appear in the sky from high places.

Although the crew has been almost certain for more than a month that the severe storm that once raged on the waterway leading to Awa has subsided, the cautious habits developed over the years, But it can’t be changed in a day or two, and they will not let go of any signs of a storm along the way.

This is the reason why William, who is always quietly releasing the storm system spell at the stern to call the gale, often feels a little embarrassed to speed up the ship, because the gale that appeared for no reason in the past few days, He was already tired of laying down several sailors who were monitoring the storm.

William, now in the stern, dressed in a black gown and with an iron badge on his chest, is pretending to be looking out into the distance with the carved handrail.

This camouflage is actually very stupid, because where the line of sight is, there is only the sea except the sea, and the sky is also cloudless. If it weren’t for the occasional fish jumping out of the sea, this scene would even give people the illusion that the boat has been parked in the same place without moving at all.

“I heard that the Demones, like the elves, also had their original hometown in Ava. It used to be shrouded in a misty mist until the Phoenix that the elves were riding on fell from the sky, and they didn’t. After obtaining the form of the material in this world, I was able to come to the Vic continent.”

William retracted his gaze towards the distance, and turned towards the bored-looking Demoness who was sitting on the railing beside him.

Liz turned around hearing this, looked at William with golden eyes, and said like he was having a little temper:

“But I’ve only been born for two months. , Blackwater Marsh is my hometown to me.”

Hearing the resentment in the other party’s words, William said apologetically:

“Sorry, but this time The journey must have you to be considered insurance.”

Seeing that the other party did not respond, William paused and then continued:

“And Cass needs to be responsible for the security of the Stranger’s Lighthouse, so there is no way to come together. .”

“It has nothing to do with whether that idiot can come or not!”

Liz defended almost reflexively.

The effect is outstanding, this child is so easy to understand…

William smirked nodded, and immediately released the storm spell that was being released.

The further away he is from the Blackwater Marsh area now, the weaker the magic he can use. He was able to sustain the wind for half a day a few days ago, but now it’s barely half an hour.

But at least the sailors on duty can rest for a while.

William thought, looking back at the sailor cautiously climbing down the mast.

It had been five days since he boarded the smuggling ship, the Whalebone, and a week had passed since the farce palace coup.

Although the exile of the Demon General unfathomable mystery named Eclipse has always been of great concern to William, but since the feasibility of combining [Mirror Shadow] and the response terminal to make Avatar has been verified, Then he can finally focus on dealing with the affairs of Avazhou.

At the moment, although William’s body is still guarding the position of the poisonous snake’s scar, his own mirror Shadow Clone, as an Elementium Silver merchant, got on this smuggling ship and To the sea of Ava.

Because of the perennial storms on the Broken Sea, few people are willing to travel between the Vic continent and Awa to do business. But it also means that those who dare to do this business can reap unimaginable wealth, after all, high elf crafts are in demand everywhere.

Since the “Battle of Wandering”, the Vic continent and Avazhou have almost cut off contact, and the newborns of the high elves who stayed on the continent lost the blessing of the Phoenix flame, and gradually Elemental mutation occurs, and the inheritance of the skill to the offspring is completely lost in just one or two generations.

Nowadays, it is more difficult to find a high elf craftsman in the empire than to find a Divine Domain-level magic caster, but the demand for high elf crafts from the major nobles is extremely strong. As a result, there are very few adventurers who are willing to block their lives and fight the storm, daring to sail into the devouring storm to engage in this high-risk, high-reward career.

“If I were you, I would probably wait a few more months, maybe when the time comes Queen Irene Your Majesty has already signed a commercial agreement with Avazhou, there is no need to risk it. Such a big risk has passed by myself…”

A voice full of energy sounded behind William, and a tall old man with chapped skin from all the year round walked slowly over, his head covered with vicissitudes of lead Silver hair, neckline and cuffs stained with air-dried white salt. The part of his right leg below the knee was replaced by a white whalebone prosthesis, so when he walked, he was a little lame, and the hard whalebone beat the deck and made a very rhythmic “click” sound.

The ship was named Whalebone because of his prosthetic limb.

“What’s your name youngster?”

Seeing William turn around, the old man asked.

William had never thought of a pseudonym for himself to hide his identity before, but after seeing the other party’s whalebone prosthesis, he suddenly had an inspiration at this time.

“Just call me Ishma, Captain Hobbs. Besides, I’m from Blackwater Marsh, and it won’t matter to us in the future, even if there is any trade agreement between Ava and the Empire.”

William answered so, and then he continued:

“Besides, it is still unknown whether the Empress Your Majesty will conquer Ava.”

Named Huo Booth’s captain heard this slightly smiled, he walked to William’s side and stood beside him, also put his hand on the railing and looked into the distance, then slowly said: “Ishma, half a I just came over from Swan Harbor a month ago. You are afraid that unimaginable is what a huge army must be assembled there. And I have been to Awa a few times. Among the seven major city-states, in addition to Yuefa City, there are also I’ve been there. To be honest, even if the number of those pointed ears tripled, they wouldn’t be a match. Even more how this time…”

He said, looking towards William’s chest inscribed with The iron plate of the rough sharp-angled symbol, and then said:

“And the Eighth Holy Spirit is with the Empire.” The explanation of the reason for the manifestation of the Spirit, which is written because the Law of Saint is continually preached in every church.

Because shortly after this, the storm on the Broken Sea really stopped, so this statement was quickly accepted by the general public, which also led to the support of the people for the expedition plan of Awa. Extremely high.

“Eight hundred years ago the ‘Eighth Holy Spirit’ personally led the troops into battle nearly died in the seabed.”

William shrugged reminded.

William’s words silenced the other party for a long time, and it took Captain Hobbs a long time to open the mouth and said:

“I saw you wearing this thing, I thought you were a A devout 8th Holy Spirit follower.”

William replied:

“Then it depends on how you understand piety.”

Speaking from a certain perspective, William is the most devout eighth Holy Spirit believer in this world.

The captain heard this but waved his hand and said:

“I didn’t think earlier, how could a devout Holy Spirit believer go to paganism before the outbreak of war. What about the sale of important strategic goods? It’s not just treasonous, it’s heretical… but it’s understandable considering you’re from the Blackwater Province.”

Heard Here, William was just about to make a fool of himself to explain, but Captain Hobbs suddenly showed a shark-like smile and said:

“But this is actually quite good, shit empire, shit church… Back then I just can’t stand the pirates on the Daemon Continent on the White Sea, so I chose to venture into the Broken Sea. As a result, the land tax collected by the gang of offal from the Empire and the Church is not much gentler than those of the pirates. Now the storm has calmed down, and the shipping route There is no risk, and it is estimated that they will start to attack us merchant ships and take the business and do it themselves.”

“If the eighth Holy Spirit has a long eye, then this storm should be let down. It goes on and on… But there is no way, who said that Holy Spirit belongs to Riel’s family?”

William waited until the other party stopped complaining before slowly opening the mouth and said:

“I do think that the cessation of the storm might be the reason why the Eighth Holy Spirit hopes to teach his so-called descendants an unforgettable lesson through Awazhou.”

When he spoke , has been looking at several black spots that appeared in the distance at the junction of sea and sky.

Before Captain Hobbes’ spirit slowly recovers, the bow of the ship suddenly rang with a loud rattle.

A sailor climbed up the mast as swiftly as a hook on his foot. After taking out the monocular telescope in his arms and observing the distance for a while, he moved towards the captain and shouted loudly:

p>

“There are warships in the south-east direction! A warship with the flag of the Imperial Dragon Sword!”
