Chapter 233: Weird
Time Forward.
After receiving the urgent transfer order from the military headquarters, with the full cooperation of the Third Fleet Command, various formalities were handled without much delay.
Aven led his crew to board the fourth-class ship "Cape Storm", which had been systematically repaired and maintained, and officially included in the combat sequence of the Kingdom Navy, and rushed to "Newinn Harbor" non-stop.
Rustle...
In the captain's room, Ai Wen, who has a bumper harvest of military rank and battleship, has not let go of the improvement of his own strength at all.
Although there are only three prerequisites for the apprenticeship stage of the "Living Chemistry School": a psychic potion, a wild amulet, and an activated plant, they are actually the three cornerstones that make up the edifice of the school's witchcraft.
Behind every witchcraft is a whole system of mystical knowledge!
Even if Ai Wen has good learning methods, habits, and a knowledge base that he already has, and is assisted by a "digital vision", it is not so easy to fully understand this knowledge in a short period of time.
Therefore, after obtaining the knowledge inheritance of the "Living Chemical School", as long as he has a little free time, Ai Wen will sit down and seriously study the ritual of inheriting the secret scroll of flesh and blood.
It's just that what makes Evan a little depressed is that whenever he feels that he has made great progress, new and more difficult content will appear on the Flesh and Blood Rite, completely erasing every trace of his slight smugness, leaving only the most rigorous and focused learning attitude.
However, Evan is also happy with this state of enriching himself at any time, and he does not find it boring at all. And the "data-based vision" that can see every bit of his progress at any time has really helped him a lot.
Goo-goo...
Bass the owl tilted his head and stared curiously at his master, Aven.
After the transformation of witchcraft, the bass has grown extremely fast, although strictly speaking, this time is only about a year, but its intelligence level is no lower than that of a human child who is seven or eight years old.
Evan is even ready to teach Beth to read and write in a psychic connection. It is not impossible to make it even more worthy of the title of "symbol of wisdom" in the occult, and even become a true owl scholar in the future.
The sky was getting darker.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone obliquely on Evan's face through the porthole of the captain's cabin, and he was also preoccupied with his books, and Aven realized that it was almost dark.
Stretching slightly, he looked at a gas lamp in the corner of the room, and had no intention of using it.
syllable
snapped his fingers.
Two pots of plants on the desk that looked like a row of small lanterns lit up instantly, creating a very bright and soft "light", and the white, fleshy and fat flowers were the "bulbs" of the plant's electric light.
This is a "hanging wind chime" that has been cultivated and transformed by the school, and it is a natural and environmentally friendly lighting tool that belongs to the wizards of the "living chemical school". It absorbs sunlight very efficiently during the day and stores it, and then provides wizards with up to two hours of steady illumination at night.
You only need to prepare a few trees to use alternately, and you can directly say goodbye to the outdated lighting tool such as gas lamps.
Under the bright "lights", you can also see that Aiwen's captain's room is very different from when he first moved in, the most important thing is that there are all kinds of strange potted plants.
Most of them are collections that Evan has put together from the collection of Hebcrit, the "snake man", and have a variety of magical abilities.
It can be used to purify water sources, including green core grass that purifies seawater into fresh water, four-leaf purple that changes color when swept by spiritual light, and nightshade incense that helps to calm the mind and sleep...
Of these, there was only one plant that was not from the school's collection, but that Evan himself was going to add to the research list, and that was an ordinary... Venus flytrap.
The reason why it appears in the middle of a bunch of demonic plants is also very simple, since he has the magical magic of "activated plants" in his hands, how can he not use his brains to make it the most of it?
If the Venus flytrap can be modified to a certain extent, and then all its life activity can be stimulated in an instant, then in the heat of naval battle, is it possible to let a bunch of giant Venus flytraps catch the flying cannonballs?
I have to say that Aiwen's brain hole is big enough.
However, the sorcery shield that can envelop the entire ship is not realistic before the legendary battleship, but this disguised method is very operable.
This is also an ambition in Aiwen's heart, if it can be realized, not only will his safety factor be greatly increased in the future, but he can also add a very practical plant variety to the list of "activated plants" of the school. Like our ancestors, leave your name in the school's legacy.
Another thing worth mentioning is that after the pirate hunt was over, Milan had no intention of returning to the logistics department of the Third Fleet.
When he went out with Aiwen, he even said an inexplicable sentence: "The tributaries of fate will eventually meet the mainstream, the pupils of the storm will open in the waves of the Black Sea, and the heart will determine the belonging of the crown.... As a great prophet, how can I be missing at the turn of the ages?"
After the joint killing of the half-step "Mysterious Wizard" Bassem, Milan's "Prophet" ability has made great progress again, but the side effect is that people have become more godlike...
It was only later that Evan learned that what Milan said was actually a warning from the "Prophecy School" to the members of his command! It was also a prophecy made by the "All-Seeing Eye" himself!
Even Milan himself couldn't decipher the meaning at all, and was just using it to pretend to be 13 in front of Aven!
However, Ai Wen was naturally happy with his choice to continue to stay on the ship, wishing that he would be a navigator for the rest of his life, such a useful guy at least Ai Wen had not seen a second one for the time being.
......
With the help of the Monsoon Goddess, the Storm Horn went all out and arrived at Newinn Harbor in less than ten days.
According to the order, Evan was to report to the Admiralty Military Department.
The Navy Department, as the key department in charge of the strongest military force in the kingdom, is of course in the royal capital Bekele. However, in order to facilitate the command, the military department also set up a branch management department in the "Port of Newinn".
In the future, the command of Evan and the "Storm Horn" belonged to here.
But.
When he landed at the port with the assignment, everyone else was left behind. Evan himself was picked up by a civilian colonel who had been waiting here for a long time, into a carriage without any signs!
Even more surprising was that the carriage was accompanied by six heavily armed knights, guarding both sides of the carriage like two moving walls of steel.
Even the consuls don't have this battle when they travel, right?
"Lieutenant Colonel Aven, I've been ordered to take you to a confidential location, please!"
The Colonel politely but resolutely made a gesture to Aven.
"Secret location, didn't you come to Newinn to receive the Navy Nova reward?"
Sitting in the unremarkable carriage, Evan felt as if things were suddenly a little complicated and weird.
The main purpose of trying so hard to get the first place in the "Navy Nova" was to get the "Golden Compass" in the treasure list.
Seeing that the thing was already close at hand, it seemed that the development of things suddenly came to his own expectations.
Summoned himself from Gabrid in a hurry, it seems that he is just using the "Navy Nova" thing as a cover, and there seems to be some deeper inside story behind it.
If it weren't for the fact that Evan clearly recognized the colonel as a part-time lecturer at the Royal Naval College, and had seen him a few times before, Evan would have thought that there was some conspiracy.
Even if it is half an acquaintance, no matter what Evan asks, the other party only replies with "I'll know when I arrive". There was no way, Ai Wen could only follow the other party to the so-called "confidential location" to see what the situation was.
Da Da...
Amid the crisp sound of horses' hooves, the procession did not enter the main city, but followed the coastline all the way to the south.
Today's weather is not very good, and the foggy sky makes people's mood a little depressed, and they always feel that something is about to happen.
And as the team continued to advance, a layer of fog gradually thickened, from the beginning of the vague to the final visibility of less than 100 meters.
Ai Wen looked at the colonel sitting opposite him with a strange look, and then he solved the puzzle of why he didn't take a boat since he was going to the beach in the first place.
In this kind of weather, it would be strange if you were sailing along the coastline by boat offshore, if you didn't hit the rocks.
The gas lights that had been prepared on the carriage turned on, and he walked along the path that was already full of fog until he reached an almost completely deserted place, and when Evan couldn't help but think about how to deal with the six heavily armed knights in the shortest possible time...
I heard the colonel on the opposite side suddenly speak:
"We're here!"
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Aven followed the colonel out of the carriage, and there was already a small boat waiting on the shore nearby, and farther out on the sea, even though the visibility was not high in the fog, Aven faintly saw a huge black figure lying on the water.
In his experience, that's at least a second-class battleship!
However, the Colonel's authority could only go so far, and after sending Evan, he turned around and left with the six heavily armored knights who had not said a word from beginning to end.
"Do you want to go to sea? Why are you so mysterious?"
No one answered his question. Evan was greeted into the boat and quickly sent to the second class battleship.
Unexpectedly, this battleship turned out to be an acquaintance, and it was the "Frost White Sword" that had escaped in the battle to exterminate the "ghost ship".
On this ship, Evan was very surprised to meet an acquaintance, Anthony Ramer.
Seeing this guy, Ai Wen suddenly had a guess in his heart about what this trip was going to do.
