CH.09 The Long Voyage

"You can tell me about it first." Quasimodo didn't refuse directly, there was still room in his words.

"There's two things I want you to do for you. In a few days I'm going to take my fleet to a New World where a group of natives live who don't speak our language, so I'd like to ask you to temporarily learn a magic that can be used to communicate with consciousness so that I can communicate with them. Anrui made his request.

"The New World?" Quasimodo frowned slightly, "Which New World are you referring to?" ”

"A new continent that no one has ever been to before, and it doesn't even have a name, just waiting for me to name it."

"It's a novelty, it's been years since anyone has discovered a new world. Since the advent of the Age of Discovery, seafarers have worked hard to drive ships around, and the new continents that can be discovered have been discovered. ”

"It's really a new thing, I will be a navigator who will make new history this time, and I will be written into the annals of history." An Rui's tone was tinged with a hint of smugness.

"If it's a place that no one has ever been, how can you find it?" Quasimodo explained.

An Rui took out the excuse of the dream teller again and said it again. Although Quasimodo has been in the fleet for many days, he has not had much contact with people, so he knows very little about Anrui.

After listening to this explanation, Quasimodo looked skeptical, but he didn't ask anything, he was a man of few words.

"Didn't you say there were two requests, and the other one?" Quasimodo skipped the New World. Picked up the previous stubble.

"In addition to the natives in the New World, there is an ancient ruin that requires a wizard to open. And it has to be a wizard with a lot of magic, and ordinary wizards can't do it. Your magic is far more than ordinary people, and you can even rank among the best in the wizarding circle, and this mission is none other than yours. An Rui also made a second request.

Quasimodo did not rush to agree, but fell silent.

An Rui saw the opportunity and hit the railroad while it was hot: "There is a sorcerer's power inheritance in that ancient ruin. And it's also the power inheritance of space wizards, if you do me a favor, that power inheritance is yours. ”

The inheritance of the power of space wizards!

This is for wizards. It is definitely an amazing treasure that once obtained, it can greatly increase its strength, and learn several spatial magics, and master the construction model of this magic.

Anrui had promised to help Sam find a power inheritance. But he had a better choice. So I'm not in a hurry to pass on this power to Sam, and I can completely give it to Quasimodo. In the future, the power inheritance he found for Sam will be even more powerful than this power inheritance.

Quasimodo was not thrilled by this inheritance of power, and his attitude remained calm.

"I can do you both a favor, and forget about the inheritance of power. No matter how strong I become, I can't save my parents' lives. Quasimodo said dejectedly.

"Magic is mysterious and mysterious, how do you know it can't? Maybe powerful magic can do that. An Rui deliberately encouraged.

"I don't bother to use undead magic."

"I'm not talking about undead magic in the first place."

Quasimodo's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked, "Except for undead magic." Is there any other magic in the world that can bring people back to life? ”

"Maybe." An Rui said ambiguously, "The premise is that you have to find a way to increase your strength." Look for it with your heart. ”

This unknown answer, true or false, can at least serve as a weak beacon to guide Quasimodo as a young man to move forward.

Quasimodo was like a fish that had been moistened by clear water, and he was a little angry, and changed his words: "I have changed my mind, and after helping you, pass on that power to meβ€”if there is really such a power inheritance." ”

"Yes." Anrui agreed.

……

In the evening before leaving, Anrui walked alone on the street near the docks, wearing a hood on his head, the brim of which was pressed low, and the shadow cast on him obscured half of his face.

He came out this time to go to the tavern near the docks and try his luck to see if he could meet Shafi. Dream Walker. Kia had said that he and Shafi would reunite at the tavern in the future, but it was not known when it would be.

In the evening, the sun sets in the west, and the orange twilight sprinkles over the pier, making the street scenery a little hazy. It's time to eat, and smoke rises from many of the houses on the streets.

"Hehe, that baked salmon dish just now is so delicious, let's eat it next time." A familiar woman's voice rang out.

Shafi?

An Rui was shocked, and hurriedly followed the prestige, but found that the person who spoke was just a strange girl with freckles on her face, not Sha Fei at all, but her voice was a bit similar to Sha Fei. Slightly disappointed, he withdrew his gaze and walked on, finding a tavern and plunging in.

The tavern was smoky, and there were minstrels, and a few people were listening.

But there was still no trace of Shafi in the tavern.

An Rui was not discouraged, he didn't expect to find Shafei so quickly, it would take a few months to a few years to find it, which was already very good. After so long, will the two become separated? He didn't know either.

The next day, the fleet left the World Business Alliance and set sail for the New World. The fleet first teleported through a portal, directly to the extreme west of the Blade Sea, approaching the edge of the Endless Sea. The new continent that An Rui is looking for is not in the Blade Sea, the Blade Sea is just a small sea area, which has already been explored, and it is impossible for a new continent to exist.

In comparison, the Endless Sea is much larger than the Blade Sea, otherwise it would not be called the Endless Sea. The Endless Sea is located to the west of the Blade Sea, which is also the west of the planet, and the further west you go, the colder it gets, and when you reach the extreme west, you will also reach the ice field. The Endless Sea is the largest of the seven seas. The sea is boundless, and it takes more than half a year to sail through it.

In the Endless Sea, there are strange locations and power compositions that are very different from the Blade Sea. The danger level is also slightly higher than that of the Sea of Blades, but not as dangerous as the Sea of Crowns. The crown sea, where the major empires coexist, is the place where the heroes of the seven seas compete, and the other six seas must bow to the wind.

The crown sea is likely to be the last place An Rui will go.

There are portals in the World Business Alliance that can directly reach the depths of the Endless Sea, but unfortunately the authority of the Overlord Chamber of Commerce is not enough, and there is no way to use which cross-sea portal, so it can only settle for the second. Reach the edge of the Endless Sea, then travel through the two seas to reach the New World.

The Endless Sea is huge. The cold climate, the barren land, and the many dangerous small areas of the sea make it relatively rare for adventurers to explore. It was left to Anrui to take advantage of.

If he doesn't come and explore. It is estimated that in a few years, this new continent will be the first to be conquered by others. This kind of thing has always been quick and slow.

A few days later, the fleet made its way through the Blade Sea and arrived at the Endless Sea. This is the first time that An Rui has left the Blade Sea and set off for other seas, which is a milestone for him. He couldn't help but feel excited, and he had been a little excited for a few days.

Until a few days later. Anrui's excitement gradually faded.

"Whoa......

Heavy rain poured down on the fleet. The bean-sized raindrops crackled the canvas and the deck. Overhead, there were clouds overhead, and there was barely a trace of light to be seen. The people who were moving on the deck were all wearing raincoats that drained the water, but they were still wet from the rain, and they were unspeakably uncomfortable.

What's even worse is that from here, the temperature gradually drops, and there is no longer the pleasant four seasons of the Blade Sea. The chill of the rain penetrates people's skin, causing many people to catch a cold.

This area of the sea is called the Storm Sea, and it is rainy all year round, and dark clouds can affect the surveyor's determination of the location, causing a lot of inconvenience.

"Alas, I really miss the sunshine of the Blade Sea, and I don't know that the Year of the Monkey can only leave this hellish sea."

"Less crow's mouth, it would be bad if we summoned the ghost ship."

"This is just the first hurdle, there are more dangerous places in the Endless Sea than the Blade Sea, and the real difficulty is behind."

"I'm not afraid of monsters, but it's so annoying to keep raining."

The sailors worked in the rain and did not forget to complain when they worked.

After a few days, the rain finally cleared, and the fleet sailed away from the sea of the storm and arrived at a fairly ordinary sea. Under the influence of the storm sea, the fleet deviated from its original course, which was also something that could not be helped. Anrui began to help the surveyors correct their course and move towards the correct direction.

The fleet then came to a sea area called the Wolf's Tooth Sea, which had many sharp reefs, some of which were still reefs, which were very dangerous. The fleet is like sailing in a minefield, and you need to be careful to avoid dangerous reefs. During this period, there was An Rui's guidance, and the toothed whale man opened the way at the bottom of the sea, and the two sides cooperated with each other to pass through the Wolf Tooth Sea without danger.

Compared to the battle of life and death, this kind of voyage is already considered safe, but it takes a little time.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the clothes on people's bodies are getting thicker. The change in weather has the advantage of making it easier to store food, and the disadvantage is that more people are suffering from wind chills.

Fortunately, there is Hermione, a priest in the fleet, who can help heal diseases with divine magic, and divine magic can even heal wounds, and some minor diseases of wind and cold are even handy.

The ensuing voyage became very long, with the fleet navigating a route rarely trodden and not even a single ship encountered in the process. All around is always the same vast sea, no matter how you sail, there is no end in sight, and every day seems to be standing still. People deeply felt the meaning of the name Endless Sea.

Endless sea, boundless!

Later, people have even become numb and gradually become accustomed to this endless voyage.

The supplies on the ship will be rapidly reduced every day, but fortunately, Anrui's space treasure chest is stuffed with spare supplies, which is enough to support this voyage. But for the sake of insurance, people still add as much seafood as possible to the table, among which fish is the most. Sailing on the sea, the most lacking is fresh water, and the most indispensable thing is seafood.

The chefs cook the seafood in a different way, and it's almost like turning the fish bones into a dish.

A long voyage rarely changes, but it's not completely static.

First of all, under the guidance of Anrui. The queen had already given birth to some new beetles. There is limited space on the ship, and there is no place to raise so many useless beetles, so they are all bred with some elite beetles. Each can be worth ten with one. In addition, they are adrift at sea all year round, and the beetles bred are mainly flying and swimming beetles.

The queen used to dominate the islands, had plenty of food, had no hope of developing at sea, and had never given birth to a beetle that could swim. It took many attempts to succeed, and during this time many failed offspring were born, which is also something that cannot be helped.

The queen has a lot of potential. When it fought Anrui, it didn't realize its potential. With Anrui's guidance and help, the queen will become even stronger. Breed stronger offspring and form a powerful maritime force.

On the other hand, the dragon eggs of the Ice and Fire Two-Headed Dragon are not far from hatching, and the patterns on the dragon eggs are becoming more and more abundant. Occasionally, you can hear some strange movements in the eggs. This is a dynamic chapter of life.

One day, the patterns on the dragon's eggs finally grew over, and they stopped absorbing the energy of the fire powder. And there is indeed not much fire powder left on An Rui's body.

An Rui estimated that the two-headed dragon of ice and fire would break out of its shell today, which made him very excited, and specially called his adopted son Bourlan into the room to witness this rather interesting moment together. At first, he wanted his adopted son to live with him. But considering that there are too many things in his room, if he is ruined by the bear child Bourlan. It will be troublesome. Moreover, items such as dragon eggs and space treasure chests are dangerous to children, and they are indeed not suitable for children to live here.

"Dad, when will the baby dragon hatch? I'm a little sleepy. Bourran asked, rubbing his sleepy eyes and yawning.

An Rui was in good spirits and replied, "It's almost there, the dragon egg just now is still moving." ”

In the box opposite the two of them, the dragon egg was placed there steadily, flashing red and blue.

After a while, the dragon egg finally ushered in the moment of breaking the shell!

The dragon egg shook three times and made a cracking sound, and the young dragon inside seemed to be working hard. The two-color pattern on the surface of the dragon egg bloomed three times more dazzling than usual, and the red pattern sparked, and the blue pattern appeared cold. One cold and one hot cancel each other out, forming a mist of mist.

"Wow! It's finally coming out! Bourlan, who was still sleepy just now, suddenly became alive at this time, jumped from An Rui's arms to the ground, and stared at the dragon egg with wide eyes.

An Rui was even more excited, got up and stood behind Bourlan, protecting the child from accidents.

The crack in the dragon's egg grew bigger and bigger, and finally a triangular fragment landed on the ground, and a small mouth arched out of the break. As the cracks grew, a two-colored ice blue dragon cub was revealed, with two small heads and wings on its back, covered in immature but hard scales, and stained with slime. It has two tails flicking behind it, one with a fiery red end and the other ice blue.

This young dragon is a combination of the elements of fire and ice, and when it reaches adulthood, it will become the master of both elements, soaring above the sky!

"Hiss!" The two dragon heads looked in different directions and let out a high-pitched growl, and its four small eyes were closed and covered with a film due to the fact that it had just been born.

"It's so small. It's like a lizard. Curious, Bourlan walked forward, trying to get a closer look at the newborn dragon, but was stopped by his adoptive father.

"Don't go over, it will breathe fire and cold from the time it was born, be careful of hurting you." Anrui patted his son on the shoulder.

The two of them watched the young dragon on the opposite side from a certain distance.

The young dragon struggled to take a step out of the broken egg, but was stopped by the edge of the box, and was stunned to get out. The young wings were not enough to support it to fly.

After seeing enough, An Rui walked to the treasure chest, stretched out his hands, and printed on the two dragon heads at the same time. Conquering the Ice and Fire Two-Headed Dragon is more special, and it requires a double spiritual imprint to penetrate two dragon heads at the same time. This will make it more difficult to subdue, so this is a dragon species that is generally difficult to subdue, and many powerful dragon warriors have been overwhelmed.

The Ice and Fire Two-Headed Dragon has extraordinary potential, and will become a big help for An Rui in the future, even surpassing the Black Lan Dragon and the Blood Sea Tyrannosaurus.

An Rui took a deep breath and smashed two spiritual imprints into the faucet at the same time, and the light flashed and soon disappeared. The whole process is very smooth, after all, this is just a young dragon, or a newborn young dragon, and the difficulty of subduing it is much lower than that of an adult dragon.

With the spirit imprint, the young dragon was no longer a threat, and An Rui took the young dragon out of the box and placed it on the ground.

"Touch it. It won't bite you anymore. Anrui beckoned to the wide-eyed Bourlan.

Bourlan boldly walked near the young dragon, stretched out his hand, touched the red dragon head, and said it was so hot, and then touched the blue dragon head, and said it was so cool.

The baby dragon was just born, so it must have lacked nutrition, and after a while, An Rui took the baby dragon into his body and imprinted it on his right shoulder, forming a small dragon pattern. He is able to share his vitality with the dragon pet and transition his vitality to the young dragon, as long as he eats and drinks enough, he naturally does not worry about lack of nutrition.

"Wow, that's amazing!" It was the first time for Bourlan to see An Rui suck the dragon pet into his body, and his excited eyes lit up and he exclaimed.

"This is a unique ability of dragon warriors, if you are interested, I will teach you in the future and see if you can learn it." An Rui's words changed, "If you are interested in other professions, I can also find other teachers for you to teach you, anyway, you can learn whatever you want, I don't force you in this regard." Only when people do what they are interested in will they devote all their efforts to achieve the greatest achievement. Twisted melons are not sweet. ”

"I want to learn ......," Bourran dragged out a long note, raising his little face in thought. (To be continued......)
