Chapter Seventy-Three: The Mysterious Stone

Recalling Nicole's smile to herself when she went out, her face full of joy, Al couldn't help but smile on her face, and she was in a good mood.

After letting little Freeman settle Nicole and carrying away the young man who was still unconscious, Al sat alone in the bedroom, staring at the black stone on the table, observing.

At this time, it was already past one o'clock in the morning, and there was silence outside the window, only a bright moon hung in the sky, and the bright moonlight also shone in from the window.

Under the shroud of the moonlight, the originally black stone gradually became transparent, emitting a faint white light, and a trace of moonlight was slowly absorbed into the stone when it was visible to the naked eye.

Al made a sound with some confusion, and as the moonlight shrouded for a long time, the black stone became more and more white, and finally it was as clear as white jade, as if it was alive, and absorbed the moonlight with a breath.

And the Moon Blade attached to his hand also buzzed constantly, and as soon as his mind moved, the Moon Blade was released by El.

Suddenly, the whole room was bright, filled with bright moonlight, and the blade of the moon hung high in the sky, like a bright moon, emitting white moonlight, and suddenly the room seemed to be plated with a layer of silver.

And at the moment when the Moon Blade was released, the stone placed on the table suddenly seemed to be attracted, floating towards the Moon Blade.

Al frowned, looking at the black stone, the starlight in his eyes flowing, and a layer of purple starlight floated beside him, protecting him. What can make the Moon Blade tremble is definitely an extraordinary item, and you can't be too careful.

Just as El was thinking, the blade of the moon hanging above shot a ray of light towards the stone floating in the air, different from ordinary moonlight, this light was red and silver, giving people an unusually pure feeling,

Half-ringing, until the black stone seemed to have absorbed enough, it fell on the table, and returned to its previous state again.

Al beckoned, and the obviously somewhat dim Moon Blade floated towards Al, quietly falling into Al's hand, watching the Moon Blade originally stored in the Moon Blade consume most of the moonlight essence, Al wiped the silver-white Moon Blade with some distress, placed it in the air, and let it absorb the moonlight, and then looked at the black stone again.

Originally, the whole body was pitch black, and the appearance of the ordinary black stone changed greatly, exuding a faint silver brilliance all over the body, densely covered with mysterious magic patterns, and what surprised Al the most was that from time to time a faint heartbeat sound came from the stone, and the heartbeat sound was inaudible, if it weren't for Al Being's extraordinary perception, it would not be easy to detect.

After studying it many times, Al realized that it seemed to be an egg, and something seemed to be hatching in it, thinking of the excavation from the ancient ruins, and the intimacy with the Moon Blade to it, Al was intrigued.

In ancient times, there were many divine beasts related to moonlight, but what kind of divine beast was it, he still had to check the information.

After thinking about it, Al changed the treatment of putting it on the table at will, took out a silver plate and put it on the soft silk, carefully put the egg on it, and put several precious magic stones in the silver plate, among which there was even a high-grade magic stone, as the nourishment for its hatching, and then carefully put away the silver plate.

snapped his fingers, his mind moved, and a bright moon crossed the space, silently came to Al's hand, looking at the Moon Blade that quietly swallowed the moonlight in his hand, Al played for a moment, and saw that the frost representing himself had completely covered the Moon Blade, which meant that El had initially mastered the Moon Blade.

Looking at the Moon Blade happily, feeling the kind of coercion that can destroy the world and the earth that still envelops the entire room under his own suppression, gently caressing the fracture of the Moon Blade, thinking about the danger of the war of the gods back then, such a powerful artifact as the Moon Blade can be shattered, it can be imagined that in ancient times, the war of the gods was dangerous and fierce, and the original little complacency had long disappeared.

......

The next day, after breakfast, Al, led by the old mayor and Benson, went to inspect the ships and cargo.

Haven is a U-shaped harbor with calm seas, fierce sea breezes and rough waters perfectly blocked from the sides, leaving only a stunning view.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa", watching the blue water constantly wash over the white sand, and several trees resembling coconut trees from previous lives thriving along the beach.

Al, who had rarely been to the beach in his previous life, was stunned by this scene, and watched with great interest a few crabs crawling quickly from the beach and quickly burrowing into the hole.

Breathing in the salty sea breeze, Al walked down the long deck and quickly onto a warship.

Step on the wide deck, with a sail flying high above your head.

Although this world is a magical world, few people will modify the power of such ordinary warships except for ocean-going giant ships.

As for the ships powered by huge sea beasts and sea monsters, there are very few ships that sail away. Therefore, most of the world's ships are still powered by wind.

As for the weapon, it was a cannon invented by the dwarves in antiquity, and it has not been improved since it was used on ships. Looking at this extremely backward old-fashioned ship cannon, Al pursed his lips, there is no way, the maritime trade in Plantagenet City is not prosperous, and it is estimated that all the relationships have been used to scavenge these warships, and Al is already very satisfied.

Looking at the sailors who were respectfully lined up, looking at the clear deck, Al smiled, sure enough, there was bureaucracy everywhere, after signaling what they should do, he glanced at the sailors who were busy and skilled in returning to various posts, Al nodded with satisfaction, and then walked towards the cabin under the leadership of the captain.

The entire warship is nearly 100 meters long and is divided into eight layers.

In order to ensure the stability of the ship, the bottom layer is all placed with sand and gravel, commonly known as ballast. The upper two floors 2 and 3 are two large cargo compartments 80 meters long, 36 meters wide and 2 meters high, which are used for cargo and food. These two cabins are the "supply hubs" of the entire voyage.

One level further up, in addition to 20 gun emplacements along both sides of the ship's side. The space in the middle was where the soldiers and junior officers on the ship lived.

And above there is the deck, and the "brains" of the entire fleet are on the stern helm. This rudder has four floors. At the top of the helm tower are the command, meteorological observation, signal liaison and other venues. On the deck between the front and rear buildings, in addition to the artillery and sail winch, there is also a special space the size of two basketball courts for drills.

I went deep into the cabin, came to the place where the cabin was full of supplies, and looked at the sealed wooden barrels that were all piled up together. Al picked a barrel and ordered it to be opened. "Qiang", the sharp weapon directly picked up the sealed wooden barrel, looked at the whole barrel of wheat, smelled it, and there was a trace of fragrance, obviously it had just been sealed in a short time, Al nodded with satisfaction.

Subsequently, he inspected most of the ships according to this method of random inspection, and all the supplies were in good condition, and there was not a trace of omission, and Al finally completely relieved himself and returned satisfied, of course, some rewards were naturally not stingy.

The thought was spinning in his mind, since the supplies and ships were basically ready, most of the mission to the haven had been completed this time, except for the ancestral tests related to the ocean-going giant ships.

After thinking about it and encouraging Benson a few words, Al, accompanied by little Freeman, turned around and headed for the secret room.
