Becoming a wizard is not as simple as words, the only thing Carmen can have to do with wizards now is her transformation ability.

Can you become a black-backed wolf is a wizard, no, a wizard is a wizard, and a black-backed wolf is a black-backed wolf.

Wizards seize the bloodline of transcendent life to make up for their own shortcomings, for real wizards, the bloodline is a mecha, how to use it is just a means, not fundamental.

In the process of growing up as a wizard, there is rarely a phenomenon that starts from the beginning.

In this process, as the wizard's strength increases, he will constantly change his bloodline to exert more powerful power.

A wizard without bloodline is not a real wizard, but it would be too narrow to say that bloodline is everything to wizards.

Today's Carmen can only be regarded as half a wizard, or a quasi-wizard.

Although he didn't know what a real wizard was like, he believed that he would never be like him, and he would have to lose weight into a bamboo pole after one transformation, and it would take ten days and half a month to recover.

Therefore, Carmen knew very well that she still lacked a lot to become a real wizard.

And these things are probably in the ancestral land of the Carmen family.

"Mr. Bailey, have you ever heard of the place of Mordir, which is a small island in the south, very far from here."

When I think of Mordir, the ancestral land of the Carmen family, Carmen feels like an arrow in her heart.

"Mordir?"

Old Bailey's eyes narrowed slightly, and he whispered: "As a sailor, I have really heard of this place, but compared to the name of Modir, its other name is more famous, and no sailor will be unfamiliar." ”

"What's the name?" Carmen was not a sailor, and a place that was not a stranger to sailors was too far away for him.

"Kraken Territory!"

Old Bailey sat in a chair, smoking a dry cigarette, and recalled: "Legend has it that in the far south of the sea, there is a very mysterious area, where there is a kraken activity, accompanied by the sound of conchs, all ships that sail into that area will be destroyed by the kraken, this is a legend that has been passed down among sailors. ”

"Kraken?"

Carmen frowned slightly, if it was before, he would definitely not believe that there was a kraken in the world, but now he had to believe it.

It's just that he wonders how his ancestors lived on the island of Mordir, if there was a kraken, and how they crossed the sea from Mordir to land.

"I haven't been to Kraken Territory, but I've walked around the neighborhood, where the weather is very bad, with strong winds, torrential rain, tsunamis, and can come at any time. In addition, there are many reefs in the place, and many ships that can't dodge will directly crash into the reef and sink. If you're talking about Mordir, it's the place I know, I'm afraid it's hard for us to get there, not to mention the Kraken and the reef, the storm alone is enough to destroy a wooden warship, we need a steamship. ”

As soon as Old Bailey said this, Carmen knew that there was trouble.

You know, it's already the time of the Industrial Revolution, and coal-burning steamships have appeared.

However, steam ships are much more expensive than traditional sail ships, and maintaining a steam ship is enough to bankrupt a rich man.

"Do you have to have a steamboat?" Carmen asked, a little unwillingly.

"Wooden warships will make us die under the waves."

Old Bailey shook his head slightly, if the Kraken Territory was so easy to break through, it would not be called a Jedi by now.

Bad weather is more frightening than those feared Krakens, and because Kraken Territories are not strategically valuable, and no one will risk surrounding them away from the main aisles.

"The ancestral home of the Carmen family is in Mordir, and I can feel that Modir is very important to me, and I have to go there anyway. The question before us now is that there is a lack of a steamship and a group of adventurous sailors, is that right? Carmen cleared her mind and asked Old Bailey.

Old Bailey nodded and affirmed: "Yes, it's easy to say, it's difficult to do, a steamship costs at least 30,000 US dollars, plus sailors, fuel, weapons, and supplies, it's not a small amount at all." Even to charter a steamship, you have to have at least a deposit of 5,000 dollars, without which we can't go to sea at all. ”

Carmen played with the badge and walked around the room.

There is no need to think about buying a boat, and few people in West Shabel City can come up with the price of 30,000 US dollars.

If you charter a ship, the deposit, supplies, sailors, and weapons will cost about six or seven thousand dollars, which is still astronomical for Carmen.

"If we spread the word that there is a treasure in the Kraken Domain, will there be any rich people who are interested and willing to go over and find out?"

"I'm afraid it's difficult, no one knows if there is a treasure or not, but everyone knows that the Kraken has a Kraken, a very evil Kraken."

"Try it, in case anyone is interested!"

Carmen couldn't do anything about it, after all, six or seven thousand dollars was not a decimal, and not many people could come up with it.

As for the robbery, Carmen is not so stupid, after all, he is going to charter ships and recruit sailors, and if the money is robbed, it is impossible to explain where the money came from.

An orphan, an old sailor, can come up with a few thousand dollars in one go, and a person will feel that there is something wrong with it, and the police will come to the door before they go to sea.

Knock knock...

In the midst of the heated discussion, there was a knock on the door.

Carmen and Bailey Sr. looked at each other, they were both people who didn't have many friends, and no one could guess who it would be.

"Carmen, are you in there?"

Before the two of them could guess, a nice voice came from outside the door.

"Bertie?"

Carmen was stunned for a moment, stepped forward to open the door, looked at Bertie who was standing outside, and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I..."

Bertie had a thousand words in mind, but when she met Carmen, she didn't know what to say.

"Carmen, who's coming?"

Old Bailey got up from his chair on crutches.

Carmen stepped out of the way and turned back, "It's my girlfriend here." ”

Hearing Carmen's words, Bertie had more courage and said softly: "Carmen, I have something very important to tell you, my father..."

"I'll talk about that tomorrow."

Carmen interrupted Bertie impatiently and waved her hand, "I'm discussing something very important with Mr. Bailey, and I don't have time to play with you right now." ”

Bertie stood outside the door, looking at Carmen with an impatient face, and tears fell instantly.

She did so much for something, not for Carmen.

But she got what she got and got nothing, and looking at Carmen's impatient gaze, she felt particularly aggrieved.

"Carmen, have you ever cared about me, what am I in your heart?" Bertie cried, she used her body in exchange for Carmen not being held accountable, and now Carmen actually annoyed her.

Could it be that the love you love is so sad, it's like a joke?

Like a wounded fawn, she mustered all the courage to come to Carmen in search of a hug.

In the end, it turned out that it was a joke at all.

"Bertie, what are you crying about, I'm really busy right now, don't make a fuss, okay?" Seeing Bertie's tears, Carmen spread her hands weakly.

He didn't understand which tendon was wrong with Bertie, and he had to come to make trouble with him, didn't he know that he had something big to do.

"Am I vexatious?"

Bertie looked at Carmen in disbelief, she felt insulted.

She has done so much, and she does not hesitate to dance fruit dances for people, and let people be tortured under her body, for whom?

It's good now, in exchange for a vexatious sentence, if this is all vexatious, what is her sacrifice, is it stupid?

"Okay, okay, I'm vexatious, I'll go, I'll go!"

Bertie ran away crying, she was running very slowly, and if Carmen wanted to catch up, she would definitely be able to catch up.

It's a pity that Carmen, who looked inexplicable, thought that Bertie was playing petty, and had no urge to chase after her.

"Not going to chase?"

Old Bailey walked up and looked at Bertie's back and asked.

Carmen shook her head slightly, and said indifferently: "No, it's okay to coax tomorrow, now let's discuss first, how to release the rumors of the treasure." ”

Bang!!

Suddenly, there was a thunderclap in the sky.

Feeling the blowing sea breeze, old Bailey glanced at the weather outside and muttered, "It's going to rain..."
