Chapter 276: Discovering the Island
A potion that makes people break through knights perfectly is incredibly expensive, not to mention the potions that can make low-level knights break through middle-level knights, and middle-level knights can break through high-level knights.
Among them, the most precious are the four Transformation Third-Order Knight Fruits, which can transform a warrior who has reached the limit of a mid-level knight into a high-level knight, and the high-level knight is a high-end combat power in a principality, and the flesh and blood essence used to breed these four Transformation Third-Order Knight Fruits is estimated to account for about half of the total.
"Steward Sva, put these knight fruits, as well as the knight fruits picked last time, into the box, and I will bring them back to the Mu Sen Collar tomorrow!" Alan looked at the high-level knight fruit in his hand, his eyes flashed, and he turned his head to Steward Sva and ordered.
"Yes!
............
At noon the next day, Alan returned to Musen Territory in the port of Herlan with the first fleet that had been waiting there.
Now that the threat of the green rat tribe has been lifted, Alan no longer needs to sit in the giant rat city all the time, of course, the search for the blood crystal has not stopped, he asked Antonio to send a squadron to search carefully in the mountain forest, and if he does not find the blood crystal, Allen is uneasy, he is most afraid that this blood crystal will be won by the rat man, and only by finding it first can he cut off the possibility of the existence of the rat man at the transcendent level.
At the same time, those hundreds of knight fruits are also on the ship, these fruits Alan can't use them at the moment, and he doesn't know when they will be used, anyway, where is the blood-devouring fruit tree, and there will be more knight fruits in the future, so Alan is ready to find a way to use these knight fruits.
In addition to these, he returned to Musen to tie Bad Barton, and eight hundred young warriors, all of whom were members of Allen's future Flame Knights.
These eight hundred guys have also undergone some tempering in the past few days, of course, most of this tempering is not physical, during this time, these soldiers have been instilled with a concept of "military discipline!" by Allen, and it is carried out with obedience to orders as the main body.
Of course, literacy is also an essential item, and illiterate warriors will eventually be eliminated, this is a mandatory rule specified by Allen, and it is a very ridiculous thing in his opinion that he can't understand military orders, especially the Flame Knights who will be Allen's personal guard knights in the future, this is one of Allen's faces.
............
The salty sea breeze blew the huge sails one by one, and nine ships were sailing at great speed on the endless sea, and Franc, the captain of the great ship, stood on the deck of the first sea-going ship called the Swordfish, and took out a monocular to look at the end of the sea.
Fran was very fond of this thing called telescopes, they were standard on every ship, used by the captain of the ship, and were made by the Viscount with a lot of crystals, specially used for navigation, this thing allowed him to see objects far away, very magical.
In fact, there is some misunderstanding here, this telescope is not the standard configuration of the fleet, Allen's four flying cavalry, each has a telescope in his hand, but Fran doesn't know!
It's been five days since the end of the day, and it stands to reason that the island should be found today, but Franc has looked at it with a telescope no less than ten times, and each time there is nothing but the vast surface of the sea, except for some jumping fish......
"Captain, are we still going further?" asked the first mate, Stehl, who was beside him.
"We are well restocked, continue to move forward, signal the other ships to pay attention to their surroundings, and report as soon as they find any suspicious land!"
Fran put down the binoculars in his hand, his frown was covered by the wrinkles on his face, and after handing over the ship to the first mate, he returned to the captain's room to rest, he was already very old, and the burden of searching for the island and the long voyage made him physically unbearable, and he spent half a day in the captain's room.
When the time came to evening, the orange-red sun hung on the edge of the sea, staining half of the sky and the sea red, and the second fleet was still sailing.
"Captain, Captain, Sea Eagle has made a discovery!" "First mate Stedel, who had been stationed on the deck for a long time, hurried to the captain's quarters and woke up Fran, who had already rested.
Fran opened his eyes, slightly cloudy, and when he heard Steel's shout, he sat up suddenly, put on a piece of clothing, and quickly opened the door, asking about the situation as he walked to the deck.
"Found the island?" asked Fran.
"Not sure, the Sea Eagle has sent word that they have found a black spot on what appears to be land farther away from the left flank of the fleet!" said Steel.
Franc did not reply, but quickly climbed to the lookout above the mast, picked up the monocular in his hand and looked at the left wing of the fleet.
After a careful search, Fran found a large black spot, the outline of which could be determined to be an island based on his many years of sailing experience, and judging by the extent on the chart, it was likely to be the island of Snake Dance.
Without hesitation, Fran immediately gave the command, reversed course, and headed the fleet towards the island.
The distance between the island and the fleet was indeed a little far, the fleet marched until midnight, and then gradually approached the island, tonight there was not a single star over the sea, even the purple moon became hazy, this island seemed to everyone in the fleet, it was pitch black, only the rustle of the trees on the island could be heard, Fran ordered the fleet to stop, and if you get any closer, the ship is likely to run aground.
At the same time, the Viscount did not ask them to go to the island, he only needed to confirm the existence of the island to complete the Viscount's task, and wait until tomorrow morning to observe the island on the sea, and then Fran was ready to sail back.
Discovering the island, everyone is naturally excited, and they all have the curiosity to find out, even the old Fran is no exception, but he also vetoed this idea, for this island, they are very unfamiliar, there are too many uncontrollable factors in it, once something happens, he can hardly escape the blame, such as the sudden appearance of a powerful demonic beast, killing the unsuspecting people, in this case, even if there are two knights in the escort soldiers, it is not safe.
Fran sighed secretly, he was already old, he had too many worries in his heart, and he still had to think about his family, once he made a mistake in his decision-making and caused something to happen to the fleet, the Viscount's anger was likely to implicate his family.
The next morning, when the sky was bright, Franc took the fleet around the island and began to sail back with the fleet, although everyone had the idea of going to the island, but Franc, as the captain of the fleet, did not dare to resist his orders, otherwise the two hundred guards in the fleet would teach them how to behave.
