Not long after the wedding, Mike's funeral followed.

All the people who had attended the wedding before were present at the funeral, and in addition to these people, there were also many newlyweds.

Ironically, the abbot was still at the funeral of the previous pastor. This particular circumstance like this may not have happened to this pastor several times in his life.

A large black coffin was placed in the cemetery, and a spade of loess buried it.

Looking at this scene, Hermione, who was dressed in black, didn't cry, and I don't know if the tears dried up, or if she had accepted this reality.

Anrui stood in the crowd with a solemn expression, occasionally turning his gaze to Hermione.

Hermione and Mike have a sad story, but from another point of view, the two are still happy. At least the two are truly in love with each other, and they came together and ascended to the marriage hall. For these two people, the moment they put on the ring is eternity.

An Rui is still very envious of this kind of love.

Although this was a bit discouraged, he still had to admit that the relationship between him and Shafi was far from reaching this level.

If Shafi turned to stone, he didn't think he could be infatuated enough to stick to it for fifty years and never marry for the sake of Shafi.

Maybe the two will have to get along for a long time before that kind of loyal relationship is born.

Or maybe you'll never get there.

This kind of thing can't be predicted, you can only go with the flow.

After the funeral, Anrui and his party stayed in Windmill Harbor for a while, firstly, to give Hermione a chance to catch up with relatives and friends. The second is also to prepare for going to sea.

After the next time he goes to sea, An Rui plans to return to Xingyue Island, after such a long time. The island must have accumulated a lot of aquamarine. He planned to make another fortune with the newly produced aquamarine, and then buy some new ships, splitting the fleet in two, dividing it into two fleets.

Selling minerals definitely requires a fleet to operate, and he himself does not have the time, so he can only leave it to his subordinates.

After dividing the two fleets, he planned to arrange it this way. One fleet was led by him and was dedicated to roaming around, and the other was dedicated to business. Help him make a lot of money. For now, this is the best arrangement.

After a few more days, the fleet finally officially went to sea and sailed back into the bosom of the sea.

Time can bring pain. It also heals wounds. It's been a long time. There was no sorrow on Hermione's beautiful countenance, and she must have buried it in her heart.

It was soon noticed that Hermione had a small habit, and she would often reach out and stroke the wedding ring on her left ring finger from time to time.

When people ask her why she likes to do it, she always laughs and doesn't answer.

The fleet is heading towards Starmoon Island, and the Windmill Harbor is far away from Starmoon Island, which will be a long voyage.

Sailing is like that, getting from one place to another. It can take a few days, a month or more. If it's a voyage around the world. The time spent will be calculated in years.

An Rui has been tossing back and forth on the sea for so long, and when you calculate it, more than a year has passed since he crossed over.

Over the past year or so, he has really changed a lot, whether it is in terms of internal personality or external strength and power, he has become a different person.

People are meant to grow, growth is destined to bring about change, and people have to say goodbye to their past selves every day.

……

The destination is already in sight.

This morning, the sky was overcast and a heavy rain was brewing.

With the helm of the Magic Vine, Anrui sails the vast seas in a conventional way. After such a long time, his captain level has reached level 8. Although it is much lower than the level of the Dragon Warrior, it is already a qualified captain.

"Haha, I made it! I did it! Sam's voice suddenly came from above the Hunter, and he seemed to be happy to hear it.

Feeling a little curious, Anrui handed over the rudder to a helmsman to take care of, then walked to the stern of the boat, and shouted at the Hunter not far behind, "Sam, what did you say was successful?" ”

"Captain, I finally put the meat I want to learn the most. System magic learned! You wait, I'll show you. Sam replied excitedly.

The Hunter began to speed up and soon caught up with the Magic Vine.

Before he could get on the porthole, Sam couldn't wait to jump onto the deck of the Magic Vine and ran in front of Anrui.

"Captain, keep your eyes open and be optimistic, the time has come to witness the miracle!" Sam unleashed his newfound magic in front of Anrui, and his magic surged and began to change dramatically. I saw that his bucket waist, the general's belly, and the elephant's legs quickly tightened and became thinner, and the clumps of fat were transformed into real muscles.

The big fat man, who was round just now, suddenly became a muscular hunk!

Sam's muscles are exaggerated and visually striking, and he now looks even stronger than Anrui.

"Captain, this is my newly learned magic, it's called 'Macho Technique'! This magic can transform the fat on a person's body into muscles, and greatly increase the strength and speed of a person. Sam struck a very sleek pose, like a Hercules, leaning down, his face facing the sky, squinting forty-five degrees, and stretching his arms out one after the other.

"Yes, yes, yes, but it seems to be a little flawed." An Rui raised his hand and pointed at Sam's face, and said with a smile, "All the fat on your body has turned into muscles, but why is your head still fat, and your face is full of fat." ”

Now Sam is full of muscles, but his head has not changed, giving people an extremely funny feeling, like a big-headed doll.

"Well, I've just learned the model of this magic, and there are some small details that I haven't figured out, so don't worry." Sam said embarrassedly.

"The key is that this little detail of yours is too conspicuous...... If you put yourself like this in battle, your enemies will have to laugh. An Rui laughed.

"I'll get over these little flaws in the near future and get this magic perfect. It will not be used against the enemy. ”

"That's good. Come on. ”

While the two were talking, a scream suddenly sounded in the distant sky, which immediately attracted the attention of the two.

An Rui's brow furrowed slightly. I vaguely felt that this voice was familiar, and raised my eyes to look at the source of the sound.

"Wow!"

There was another screech that resembled an eagle's chirping.

The sound came from far and near, and the source of the sound finally appeared in Anrui's field of vision.

It is a glowing bird with a striking crimson body that drags a brilliant red trail across the sky as it flapps its wings.

"Helpbirds?" Anrui recognized the bird's origin at a glance.

The SOS Bird is not a real bird, but a magic item. It is something that seafarers used exclusively for rescue.

After the distress bird is released, the distress bird will conduct a large search around the area, looking for someone to call for help on behalf of the user. Once you find someone who can help. The distress bird will act as a guide to the location where the user is killed.

But anything that has anything to do with magic must be very expensive. Not every ship will be equipped with distress birds, only those who are more wealthy. will bring this kind of treasure on his body. Just in case.

It is still unknown whether the rescue bird can be rescued when it is released, it all depends on luck. After all, the ocean is too big, and the chances of seafarers meeting at sea are not high.

There are also many pirates at sea who specialize in fishing with distress birds, deliberately releasing distress birds to attract ships to approach, and then robbing approaching ships.

Experienced sailors will keep an eye on the distress bird when they see it, and keep a half-believing attitude. I won't rush over to help.

Anrui is an experienced seafarer.

The distress bird noticed the fleet and saw it as a savior. Circled and flew down, shouting and circling around the fleet.

After calling enough, the distress bird rose again and flew towards the scene of the incident.

The lookout looked over there with a telescope, but saw nothing, indicating that the incident site was at a distance from the fleet.

An Rui's personality has a cold side and a hot side. He is ruthless in the face of enemies, and he is still very warm-hearted in the face of those in need.

He didn't just ignore the distress bird, nor did he rush the fleet over, but put the bee glasses over and followed behind the distress bird, intending to see what was going on before making a plan.

The behavior patterns of the distress birds are all set by magic, there is no IQ to speak of, and it is impossible to look back to see who is following behind them, just caring about flying forward.

Bee Glasses followed, teleporting what they saw to An Rui from a distance.

The two little things flew in the sky for a long time and finally reached their destination.

The situation here is terrible, and under the dim clouds, a burning ship is slowly sinking. The other two boats stayed aside, trying to rescue the man who had fallen overboard. Both ships were also in bad condition, all damaged, with traces of shelling on their hulls.

Strangely, there were no attackers around, and there was silence under the sea, and there were no sea monsters or fish-people haunting them.

An Rui took in this scene and felt that it was very strange, so he continued to observe patiently.

In the area where the incident occurred, the people on the two boats were still trying their best to save people.

Suddenly, the silhouette of a large ship appeared at three o'clock in the direction of the two ships, the ship was translucent, and the shadow of the hull was too much to see. The sails hanging from the beams were tattered and full of large holes, and it was impossible to withstand the wind. At the top of the mast is a black flag with a skull painted on it.

The ghostly ship launched a surprise attack on the other two ships, and the gun ports on one side of the ship exploded at the same time, and dozens of translucent shells bombarded out and hit the hulls of the two ships.

The sailboat itself, as well as the people on board, were injured.

The strange thing is that those devastation shells disappeared out of thin air after wreaking havoc!

Immediately after, the translucent black-flag sailboat also disappeared, without a trace, leaving not even a trace.

All that remained on the surface of the sea were the two battered ships and the one that had already been sunk.

"Ghost ship!" Seeing this, An Rui cried out in a lost voice. (To be continued......)
