Hmmm-

Near the center of the island, a blue electric light shot straight into the sky.

Olivia, who was lying on Aven's back and hugging his neck tightly, had changed back into a military uniform, but the relationship had progressed to this point, and she had no intention of using the "false face" again.

Instead, she maintained her original appearance, put on a women's military uniform, and hung a long sword at her waist, turning into a tall and heroic female officer.

Even the rank on the shoulders changed from lieutenant to colonel.

Because her current identity is no longer Captain Roddy, a military officer, but Major Olivia, a civilian attendant officer of the brigadier general!

Although in the alliance military, it is inevitable that the officers of the martial arts faction are better treated, but for a gold-swallowing beast of Olivia's size, no amount of resource subsidies is just a drizzle.

It's better to get back to the way you were, and it's more convenient to stay by Aven's side.

In this world, because of the existence of extraordinary powers, there are actually not too few female soldiers. However, due to biological differences, most women serve on land or in naval bases around the world, and few are willing to board ships and go to sea.

In the blink of an eye, it has climbed enough to look down on the whole island.

Even in the southern waters of Cape Agulhas now, because of Olivia's [Gem Witchcraft - Shattered Star], it has entered the storm season in advance.

However, Ai Wen has the [Tranquility Talisman] given by Fisher, the patriarch of the Angry Waves Church, as long as he is within the Black Sea, no matter how treacherous the celestial phenomena are, he will no longer be forbidden to him.

The two of them flew around the island, which had regained its tranquility, and unsurprisingly, on the other side of the valley where the treasure trove was hidden, among the slightly sunken but luxuriant trees, they saw a large area of pale green phosphorus fire floating and flickering.

Even if you don't see the bones exposed, you can imagine that under this sunken woods, there must be at least thousands of corpses belonging to Anuma slaves buried.

After all, the Hirius people were able to dig out such a large cave in the belly of the mountain in complete secrecy, and they would inevitably need a large number of "tight-mouthed" people, and who would be more suitable than the Anumas?

Finally, with a sigh for the veritable Forsaken, the two turned and flew north.

After reconnecting to the psychic network, Evan had already determined the location of the Storm Horn, and it would take less than an hour to catch up with them at the speed of the Thunderbird.

At the same time.

On the sea beneath their feet, a long black shadow broke through the whirlpool belt, like an underwater arrow flying out towards the north, it was the completely liberated "Thorn-crowned Sea Serpent" Pippi.

For the "Crowned Sea Snake", the long-distance run can reach a speed of 80 km/h, which is equivalent to about 43 knots, and the short-term limit speed can reach 112 km/h, which is equivalent to about 62 knots.

Today was only a day later than the "Storm Horn" that escaped early, and even if Pipsqueak's speed was much lower than Aven's, it would not take two days to catch up with the "Storm Horn".

As for the windfall this time, after two people discussed, they came up with a reason that should be reasonable.

Because the all-round powerful legendary battleship needs to use witchcraft or magic to complete the extraordinary transformation similar to that of humans, it is the transcendent among the battleships!

Cyrius, the first power of the sea, is strong, but the "Eternal Fire" church is even more domineering. The power of witchcraft is almost extinct in the country, and even the ostensibly legitimate alchemists (the promoters of the steam industry) do not want to stay here.

Or the entire diocese of the "Eternal Flame" is very resistant to this power that also harnesses the flame.

At the same time, the royal family wants to bypass the church, instructing the gods to help them build legendary warships is tantamount to a pipe dream, and the church leadership does not want to increase the power of the kingdom in vain, everything is a transaction.

Therefore, it is very difficult for the royal party and the royal family behind them to have a legendary battleship that is completely their own.

Perhaps it is precisely because of the mutual restraint with the church that the only way to use the dark light is adopted? Looking for a place to hide in Treasure Tree Bay? If you return home, you may end up in the treasury of the church within a few days.

Their intelligence-based speculation is indispensable, but in reality? The resentment in the hearts of the royal party may be far more than that.

Apparently it was originally a precious treasure looted by the kingdom from all over the world? However, after the blessing of the gods and the completion of the transcendent transformation into a legendary battleship, it became the property of the church.

Even a nod from the archbishop in charge of related affairs is required for each dispatch? Although there has not been a situation where the kingdom has not agreed to an application, it is a constraint after all.

It's like you have the code for a nuclear weapon? But the lockbox must be kept by someone else.

So? After gaining the support of the "Cursed School" of the Dark Wizard Group, these hidden ships are legendary warships with completely independent property rights.

However, no matter how these treasure trees came from, after all, they will still be cheaper for Ai Wen, and they will also become one of the thickest capitals in his hands in the future.

Another trophy, [Treasure of the Sea, King Mansa Musa's Treasure Chest], Aven has also thought of a use.

Even if there is no treasure to guard? This is also an excellent strategic weapon? It can completely replace the rudimentary version of [Lost Lock] and become the new barrier of Port Hatrafal. The absolute nature of the sea treasure alone is by no means something that a mere official wizard can crack.

Ai Wen was in a good mood, and he had already reached the clouds between the fluttering of his wings, slowed down slightly, turned back to the girl on his back and asked:

"Hercy? We've made a windfall this time, what do you want to order?"

There is quite an arrogant attitude of ordinary people facing their girlfriends when the year-end bonus is issued.

Heard? Olivia, hugging Evan by the neck and burying her face in the soft feathers behind his neck? The brightness on his face bloomed in an instant, and even the vast and magnificent sea of clouds under his feet was a little eclipsed:

"That's... Can you do anything?"

Evan didn't notice anything unusual? The answer was very refreshing:

"Of course? No need to save me money. ”

Just the harvest of a large number of Baoshu ship timber is already a windfall that is difficult to measure the value? If Ai Wen dares to sell, there must be countless small and medium-sized countries that will eat even if they exhaust their national coffers.

Of course, unless his brain is in water, it is absolutely impossible for a third person to know until he has the ability to build. Privately owned legendary battleships, at least he had not heard of.

"My necklace style is a bit old..."

"No problem, buy!"

"This year's new earrings from De Beers Jewellery are beautiful..."

"Meaningless, buy!"

“......”

"Of the thirty-six rings in the Gem Armament, more than half of them are close to the critical value of spirituality..."

"Hmm, buy. bar. ”

It wasn't until Olivia reported the names of the various jewelry for about half a minute that Evan finally couldn't help but hesitate, and he no longer had the calmness he had at the beginning.

"The jewel star 'Artemis' has died a heroic death, or... Shall we buy three or five for spare?"

Finally, this time Evan did not hesitate and shouted with a sharp birdsong:

"Phew!

A woman will always be short of a bag, and Olivia will always be short of a gem.

Dare to say to a female sorcerer of the gem school, 'Don't save me money', it's really naïve, female bodhisattva, please accept the supernatural powers!

"Giggle..."

The girl behind her smiled and leaned back.

Shaking off the non-existent sweat on his head, Evan suddenly thought of the project that had been planned but never implemented, so he asked again:

"Hersie, do you know how many people there are in the gemological school?"

Although she didn't understand why Evan asked this question, Olivia, who still had a smile between her eyebrows, replied honestly:

"Although ordinary people can't afford it, the gem school has a long tradition and many branches, and there are still five or six hundred wizards of all ranks. ”

Ai Wen raised his eyebrows:

"In other words, these people have a lot of spending power? Look at this. ”

An experimental protocol under the control of the activated aura automatically flew out of the "magic pocket" and fell into Olivia's hands.

On closer inspection, she found that it was an execution plan refined from the "Methods of Cultivating Organic Gemstones".

Producers of natural organic gemstones, how to choose the right high-yield organisms, how to induce mutations, how to carry out magical transformation... The selection of the culture environment, etc., is just missing the part of how to induce it to develop similar qualities to natural gemstones.

But the remaining blank area is what I am good at.

It may be difficult for a single person to realize this seemingly fantastical idea, but two people, one skilled in bio-modified sorcery and the other in gemstone sorcery, is a perfect match.

If you can do it, you can not only use "gem witchcraft" in the future, but also make a fortune using cheap man-made gemstones to run the market!

Thinking of the beautiful life in the future, the girl just smiled at first, and then gradually couldn't help laughing, and then Evan joined in.

"Hahahaha..."

The hearty laughter of the two people like a barbell continued to echo in the air.

However, to each other's ears, each other's laughter is as pleasant as the collision of gold coins.

......

Since the successful escape, the "Cape Storm" has been a gloomy cloud, because neither the captain who stopped the enemy nor the valiant Captain Roddy has been able to join him.

Especially when Milan couldn't contact Evan no matter what method they used, it added to the gloom in their hearts.

I waited for a day, and I couldn't wait anymore.

Because the gap in transcendent rank has rendered Evan's accurate divination ineffective, Milan simply finds out the crew files kept on the ship, according to Roddy's name, birthday, place of birth... and so on "accurate" information for divination (the last divination was for people).

And then.

The results of the divination are:

"Captain Roddy... Dead!

"Captain... Woooooo

"It's all for us!"

Suddenly hearing the bad news, just when a group of people were immersed in grief, and even some people were already crying.

Phew-

An electric light fell on the deck in the sky, and while the captain was hunting, Evan easily opened the Olivia, who was hugging her, and introduced to the crew with a light cough:

"Captain Roddy has unfortunately died in battle, and this Major Olivia is the squire officer I have just recruited. ”

The group of people who had not dried their tears all looked at their captain with strange eyes, and their eyes clearly said:

'You're a fool...'

Although the appearance and clothes have changed, neither the saber nor the "Activated Skin" belt that originally belonged to Roddy has changed!

In particular, Milan had met Olivia at the banquet in Orange Leaf Castle, and the marquis's daughter had come to the Southern Continent, and she had even walked into the cabin that originally belonged to Roddy.

Look, she's in, she's in!

Wonderful complexion:

"Aven, she..."

patted Milan on the shoulder, and then looked at his officers:

'Give you a look, and you will understand for yourselves. ’

Afterwards, Evan did not pay attention to the sad and happy them, and contacted the commander Lieutenant General Temple Elvis again through the psychic network to learn about the changes on the battlefield during his absence.

Although the operation to strangle the "Storm Horn" failed, the Cyrius people held the initiative after all, and before the "concept replacement" failed, the two quasi-legends had already converged with the Grand Fleet.

Failed to let the "Northland Chill Wind" catch the opportunity to fight back.

At this time, the war in the southern continent had completely entered the decisive stage, and the land had almost been lost. But Tulip's colonies are mostly littal, and the navy determines the efficiency of the transportation of troops and supplies.

The upcoming naval battle will determine who will be the real winner!
