Chapter 1 Thousand Islands Province
On the vast and boundless sea, a handsome bird and monster soared with its white wings in the wind.
On the back of this miraculous eagle peng, a man and a woman are sitting steadily, enjoying the sea breeze. And there is a basket in front of the two of them, which contains a lot of delicious food, such as cuttlefish shark fin soup, giant foamed sea crab meat, barbecued sea king snake meat skewers, fried octopus chapters, etc., in addition to a full pot of Baiwei juice.
"Master, master, you and Sister Leah can eat, don't sprinkle the crumbs of food on my wings, okay!" Elek was very aggrieved and the soul transmission of the master on her back made Wright laugh.
"Okay Elek, when you get to the place, Maui should prepare food for you, after all, he wrote it in the letter, and I hope you will come too."
"Elek, you must know that your brother Maui is the contemporary Grand Duke of Mermaid Castle and the lord of the Thousand Islands! The Kuril Province is the place with the most delicious food in the sea, how much do you think he will prepare? â
Elek's eyes lit up, she was half of the Thundercloud Peng's blood. Thundercloud Peng Eagle is a type of monster that lives by the sea, and loves to eat all kinds of delicacies in the sea.
Cecilia, who was sitting next to Wright, smiled and gently stroked Elek's head with her hand.
"Chirp~tweet~~~! īŧvīŧīŧ â
Elek flew faster.
Soon, a strange landscape appeared in front of Wright's eyes.
Countless small islands, lush and densely located in the sea in front of you--- or in front of you is a dense land with countless rivers, but this river and lake are too many and too dense.
This is the Thousand Islands Province, the southernmost province of the Puang Empire, and the southernmost region of the Magnolia Continent.
According to the incomplete statistics of scholars, there are 152 long-term inhabited islands in the entire Kuril Province, but more than 800 islands cannot be fully counted--- because with the ebb and flow of the tide, many small islands disappear and appear from time to time.
The province is also known as the most livable region in the entire empire, and although it is located in the southernmost part, the wide sea makes the climate here docile, and it is rare to have extremely hot moments.
The place Wright is looking for is the --- Mantanani Island, which is the most beautiful and political center of the Thousand Islands Province, which is located in the center of the Thousand Islands Province.
Of course, the task of searching for the specific address was all left to Elek, and Wright and Cecilia lay in Elek's thick feathers, the early summer sun shining on their bodies, enjoying this rare leisure.
"Hey, young man, little girl, are you going to Mermaid Castle too?"
Wright, who was lying in Elek's feathers, was stunned for a moment, only to see a figure appear hundreds of meters away from him, standing out of thin air.
And Cecilia had already reflected, and the scimitar in her hand appeared in her hand.
The powerhouse of the Holy Domain, Wright was slightly stunned, but he was not too surprised, after all, he was now enough to match some Holy Domains, and his wife Cecilia was also at the Holy Domain level after transforming, and he did not have much fear of the Holy Domain.
"I don't know who Your Excellency is?" Wright Cecilia.
"Haha, you can call me Collander." The Sacred Domain powerhouse showed a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not hostile, the two of you are going to the wedding of that little guy in Mermaid Castle?"
"That's right!" Wright and Cecilia looked at each other, and Wright spoke, "Maui Gaskell and I are friends of the Academy. He got married this time, so I naturally came to visit. â
"That's it!" The self-proclaimed Sanctuary powerhouse of Colander smiled, "I'm also here for the wedding, Mermaid Castle is in that direction--" He pointed to the direction with his finger, and then smiled again, "I won't bother you two, see you at the wedding." â
After saying that, this Sacred Domain powerhouse quickly flew away.
After a while, Cecilia tapped her head: "Wright, he calls himself 'Colander', not the one I guessed!" â
"It should be!" Wright rolled his eyes, "The --- husband of the first Duke of Mermaid Castle, the ancestor of the entire Gaskell family, I didn't expect him to attend Maui's wedding!" Anyway, Maui's wedding won't have any changes. â
"Probably not, there are powerhouses in the Holy Domain." Cecilia took Wright's hand and whispered.
Of course, Wright knew that this 'Sanctuary powerhouse' didn't mean Colander.
With Collander to show the way, soon Elekel flew into the skies above Mantanani Island.
Mertanani Island is the largest island in the province of the Thousand Islands, with an area of 10,000 square miles, the whole island is long and narrow, the distance between north and south is more than 800 miles, and the east-west direction is much narrower.
Mantanani Island itself is the most prosperous place in the Kuril Province, not to mention the recent wedding of the duke, so naturally there are many guests. Boats of all sizes ply between Mantanani Island and neighbouring islands.
Unlike the regions on the mainland, most of the Kuril Province has almost no walls on the sea. Here, after all, the sea inherently replaced the role of the city walls. Naturally, there is no entry tax, after all, in the southernmost part of the empire, and in many of the best ports, the trade tax has already made the lords of Mermaid Castle softened.
Wright and Cecilia strolled hand in hand in a market on Mantanani Island, and the atmosphere was completely different from the imperial capital, Sunset Province, and Kerry Province.
On both sides, there were shouts and bargaining voices mixed with local dialects, which made both of them have a very novel experience.
Elek folded her wings and shook her head and followed behind her, while the vendors and guests on the side were not surprised.
Although the Kuril Province is a fairly calm region, there are not too many strong people. But on Mertanani Island, there are all kinds of caravans, and there are also magicians and warriors with Warcraft. Although Electric is a little bigger, and it is not a more common type of Warcraft among the powerhouses of the Thousand Islands Province, but that's it.
"Sell flatfish, fresh flatfish, three pounds a gold coin!"
"The best horse-headed sea serpent! The meat is delicious, the skin can be used to make clothes, and the price is negotiable. â
"The feces of Thundercloud Carving Peng can be used to drive away mid- and low-level demonic beasts, one small bag of five gold coins, and two bags of eight gold coins!"
Elek was as greedy as when she was a child, and when she saw the shop selling horsehead sea snakes, she stopped excitedly, and her red eyes scared the little girl who looked at her little shop to tears.
Wright had to spend some money to buy nearly 100 catties of horsehead sea snakes. Electric ate the sea snake into her stomach like eating noodles and burped.
Of course, Wright and Cecilia weren't very interested in this fishy food, although the horsehead sea snake was very tasty when handled.
The two walked as they walked, admiring the scenery along the way. Both of them are ninth-level warriors (in fact, one can directly beat the weaker Sacred Domain, and the other is also a Sacred Domain powerhouse after transformation), and they are not afraid of robbers or the like after walking out of the bazaar, but the two of them walked nearly a hundred miles, but they did not see robbers or the like, but there were many villages gathered, and the people in these villages were also very hospitable.
"Wright, do you feel that this Mermaid Island is particularly peaceful, whether it is the market or the people in the village are very enthusiastic, and we have walked nearly a hundred miles outside the city, there are no robbers or anything, even the central province, it will not be so safe, anyway, I have seen robbers more than once, and the province of Kerry is even more chaotic."
"Yes, Cecilia, but you look at the size of Mantanani Island, I guess there is no room for the robbers to hide." Wright also thought it was strange, but thinking about it, it was due to the geographical factor, maybe this kind of island was not suitable for the development of bandits.
"Well, you're right!"
"By the way, Cecilia, have you noticed that there are far more women than men on Mermaid Island along the way!"
"What are you looking at?"
âãããããã Don't be so sensitive! â
"Okay, I've only been married for a few years and I've started to dislike me."
"How is that possible!"
Unconsciously, the two of them have crossed several cities, close to the core of the entire Mermaid Island, the core of the Gaskell family, Gaskell Castle, which is commonly known as the Mermaid Castle.
"Lord Wright, Lord Cecilia!" The two guards saluted, and it was obvious that they had seen their portraits. Of course, more importantly, with an albino carving, this is almost a unique symbol.
However, to Wright and Cecilia's surprise, the two guards were actually women, and they seemed to be very muscular.
