The time has slowly come to the end of August.

The weather should have cooled down in autumn, but the port of Hatrafa, located in the tropical region of the Golden Sea, has not changed, and the rainy season here lasts for at least a month.

Fluttering

Under the guidance of the seagull navigator, the group led by Milan took a cargo ship between Yuanfan Ling and Hatrafa Port, and slowly sailed into the white fog formed by the large "Lost Lock" barrier on the outskirts of the island.

After spending a lot of precious materials to build, this layer of white mist has the ability to conceal, shield the sense of existence, and divination countermeasures. If there is no seagull to lead, let alone enter it, it is impossible to find this place even under the third-order legal position.

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Suddenly, there was a sound of water beside the ship.

Then, in the thick mist, a large patch of scimitar-like dorsal fins of different colors emerged from under the surface of the sea, ranging from large to small in number, or at least hundreds.

"Ah, Milan, there are so many sharks, look, there are demonic creatures in there!"

Standing next to Milan and still dressed as a female warrior, Apusua couldn't help but let out an exclamation when she saw this scene, not panicked, but more surprised.

"Don't worry, these are one of the island's defenses, able to identify friend and foe. ”

Milan patted the girl on the shoulder and explained to her with some pride, after all, he had a share of the credit for this.

Now the island's three-dimensional defense network has been basically completed, and although the seagull reconnaissance network, the large Lost Lock Enchantment, the pirate patrol ship, and the shark school are mainly ordinary sharks, there are also a few demonized creatures.

Well, as Aven's "Demon Cave" guards, I just don't know how many days they have left.

The group's arrival in Port Hatrafa actually had something to do with the "activated hides" that Evan had just made for them.

It's just that Milan quietly glanced back at his side, and Rowdy, who Aven specially ordered to bring with him, was really a little surprised.

Because now that the navy and privateer fleet under Aven's command have been separated, all naval officers and sailors who can be allowed here will automatically be defaulted to being a core member of this nascent force.

Previously, at least the "old man" on the "Storm Horn" whose loyalty and ability could stand the test.

Although Milan is also very optimistic about Warrant Officer Roddy, who has fought side by side many times, he thinks that sooner or later he will be able to gain Aivan's approval. But he was still a little puzzled that Ai Wen had accepted the little fat man who had only been on the ship for two months into the core circle of influence so quickly.

Even though he is extremely capable, can he fully understand his personality in such a short period of time? Although as a "prophet", he has never been superstitious in prophecy, especially when it comes to a complex species like humans.

Is it the relationship that also has the golden compass and has a common language?

However, it always feels like Evan has been taking care of Roddy a little too much lately, at least this situation has not been seen in Vader and Fleck, who are also optimistic about him. ’

At this time, Milan, who was a little confused, didn't know.

Because the speed of time in the spirit world is thirty-six times that of time, it may not be long before Evan and Olivia are about to become the people who spend the longest time alone in each other's world

The little fat man "Roddy" stood on the deck and also looked at the sea, but now he was no longer the original warrant officer trainee.

After making a solid enough meritorious service, he obtained the approval document of Aven, and had already completed the promotion of official captain officer in the garrison headquarters of "Fort Dilborn".

For Olivia, who already has a lot of sailing experience, passing this kind of assessment is a piece of cake. Although the rank of captain is nothing to her true identity, it is a recognition of her own ability in addition to the identity factor.

Olivia cherishes it too.

Unlike the apprehension that she had been worried about being found out before, when she really met with Evan with her original identity, her heart suddenly relaxed a lot.

Because although she didn't say a few words, she found that the other party was still slightly nervous when she communicated with her face-to-face.

Since you're nervous, then I'm not nervous.

At this point, she suddenly realized that no matter how deeply rooted Aiwen's image of a meritorious brigadier general was, in fact, he was just a kind young man who was only seventeen years old like herself.

Both inside and outside the spirit world, this Mr. Red Hemlock is a very interesting and reassuring person!

Just like the meaning of hemlock: lucky, newborn, strong, and guardian justice.

Thinking of this, Olivia inexplicably remembered what her mother Nymph said to her after the banquet, and she couldn't help but feel a little hot at the root of her ears.

'Ah, Mother is really, so annoying'

However, the only thing that made her a little dissatisfied was that.

When he learned of Aven's other identity: the commander of the privateer fleet "White Knight", he finally discovered the "culprit" who plagiarized the idea of his "dragoon fleet".

And he built this famous and powerful privateer fleet, galloped across the entire golden sea, and fulfilled a dream that he had almost never had a chance to realize in his life.

boom

Along the safe waterway, it didn't take long for the cargo ship to dock smoothly.

The pirates in charge of the port began to unload their cargo, and the three of them sailed in horse-drawn carriages along the repaired gravel road to the depths of the island.

Da-da-da-da

On the way, I also saw a lot of excitement on the island.

With the participation of sufficient funds and manpower, the progress of various projects is rapid.

The first layer of rammed earth has been completed in the fort near the port, and the second layer of granite is halfway through, thanks to the fact that Aven was often involved in the construction.

The potential of the Activated Aura in the physical world is immeasurable.

By this time, a town of docks, settlements, taverns, and foundries had sprung up.

Looking at such a scene, Olivia's eyes flashed with brilliance, and the little chagrin about the girl's dream disappeared in an instant

Bell!

Sou

Two sturdy figures, one black and one blue, leaped quickly between the mountains and forests outside the experiment, and their movement speed and agility were completely equal to that of Apusuya, who had opened the "Soul of the Lynx".

When moving at high speed, the two occasionally stir up sparks when they fight, and their strength is almost not inferior to that of powerful senior knights.

However, the fighting methods of these two figures are distinctive.

The black figure leaped like a fly, and when it raised its hand in battle, it shot out a sticky spiderweb-like mycelium, like a giant spider wandering among the branches.

In the normal state, the surface of the skin is a very magnificent blue, purple, and rose gradient fluorescence, but it can easily blend into the surrounding environment in the blink of an eye, and there is no flaw.

Whoa!

After testing their "living hides" a little, Milan and Olivia leapt from the top of the tree, landing in front of Evan and Apusua one after the other.

The "Activated Hide" on his body wriggled and folded up automatically, similar to Aven's captain, and turned into two exquisite belts tied around the waists of the two of them.

"How?"

"Excellent!"

"Unbelievable!"

Clearly, both Milan and Olivia are happy with their new toys.

"That's good. ”

Aven took a note of the data he had just detected.

The "Activated Hide" on Olivia's body is decent, and it comes from a super-ordinary-level fine black shark.

Normal skin glows with gradients from blue, purple to rose, like a brilliant gemstone. It has both speed and strong mimicry ability.

Although it felt a little incompatible with the little fat Roddy, Evan knew that Olivia must like this style, and it took him a lot of thought to choose the species of fine black shark.

Of course.

Although this "activated shark skin" is not bad, it does not go beyond the original "activated animal skin". And the one on Milan is Aivan's latest proud work!

Earlier, he found the witchcraft notes belonging to the "living corpse" from the seized "magic bag", in which he found three kinds of witchcraft: parasitic transformation, solidified vampire aura, and solidified plague aura.

Because the secret scroll of the inheritance in Aiwen's hand, "The Rite of Flesh and Blood", contains the first volume of the catalog, the last two of these three types of witchcraft are confirmed to undoubtedly belong to the original witchcraft of the second volume, but with minor modifications, it is more suitable for the use of the "Poison and Plague School".

In addition to this, he found a prototype witchcraft with numerous notes and illustrations in the section of the notes that recorded the parasitic transformation.

It is also part of the second volume of "Flesh and Blood Puppet", but it is more directly to the core of the symbiotic transformation.

However, the witchcraft that could have created symbiotes to provide extra auxiliary support to wizards has been changed by the "Poison Epidemic School" to be completely unpredictable.

At least he was not sensitive to the fact that he had transformed his body into a strain parasite.

However, the several transcendent strains and unique knowledge systems in the hands of the "Plague School" amazed Aven.

Whether it's the super cyst fungus arachnoid mycelium strain of the dead, or the original strain of the transcendent strain that they rely on for their roots and great potential, it was an eye-opener for Aven.

As a result, he also opened his mind that "activating the skin" uses the skin of animals, so is the cell wall a type of skin?

If you can use these strange transcendent strains as a carrier and apply the original symbiotic transformation and the bloodline transformation in Volume 3, you may be able to create a powerful "activated skin" that is different from the other.

So during this time, after many trials, Milan's set of venom-like "activated animal skins" was his first product.

Unlike ordinary "living hides" that have actually died, this "venom" made from "fungal symbionts" is still alive!

Although the collective intelligence is not high, it is still no problem to be like a puppy.

Moreover, it can continue to grow through subsequent continuous transformation, and even has the possibility of large-scale laboratory preparation.

Maybe you can rely on laboratory cultivation to equip every ordinary soldier and create an army of Venom!

This is the ambition in Aven's heart.
