Chapter Thirty-Four: Wild Mage

"You're not a little bold. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Xia He stared at Claude coldly. The difference between 1,000 miles and 1,900 miles is too much, and ordinary people may be in danger of their lives if they use this to judge the distance.

Claude spread his hands and did not have a confrontational posture. He himself felt that he would not be the opponent of the magician in front of him, and there was a magic battleship behind him, so he hoped that this magician would calm down.

"Take me aboard, I don't want to drift two thousand miles at sea. Xia He couldn't help but say in a commanding tone to Claude.

"I can't be the master. Claude smiled wryly, if the other party was not a magician, he didn't care. Bring a magician of unknown origin on board and the captain will cut off his head.

"I've heard that pirates not only rob, but also occasionally do business?"

Claude said proudly: "Of course, when we do business, our reputation is better than that of those merchants. ”

"Well, I want to see what life is like for pirates, let me be on the ship for a day, and I'll pay a gold coin. Xia He's generosity, coupled with his dress, convinced Claude that this young guy had indeed come to this ghost place by accident. A magician of the Arcane Empire, he has no interest in coming to pit the St. Odin.

Xia He directly took out ten gold coins and forcibly asked Claude to take him on the boat.

The pirates are also helpless, at this distance, it is estimated that it is not difficult for the magician to go to the St. Odin by himself. He didn't want the other party to be stimulated by anything, he wasn't afraid of the young magician, but he cherished his boat.

After Claude took Xia He to the big boat, he sent him directly into the best cabin.

"Master Mage, the captain is not here, I have to go ......"

"Go, if the door is locked, don't disturb me. Xia He waved his hand and let Claude go. He doesn't know how long he can last as a noble mage. On this boat, there are more than twenty level masters. However, he is a magician, and the power of magic may not be able to fight against the master, but he can destroy ships.

Xia He was preparing in the cabin, and if the pirate turned his face, he had to have the ability to threaten the other party.

In the captain's room of the St. Odin, pirates are arguing.

"Banze, if I were to say, let's find a big island and send that magician down. ”

Banze was a strong man, with a slanted scar on his face, from the corners of his forehead to his neck, hideous and terrifying. He was the first mate of the St. Odin, and the captain was not there, so it was up to him to make up his mind. But he was also hesitant in the face of the magician.

"Theodore, what if he refuses to go?"

"Kill him then!" said a one-eyed pirate wearing an eyepatch.

"Eagle, what if we can't kill it?

"Why don't we spend some money and trick him out?" the eyes of a young pirate in silk robes twinkled.

"Then you'll have to scrape together the money, if you want to hire a magician......"

The pirates have abandoned this idea, and on land, the hiring of magicians is often tens or even hundreds of gold coins, and in the state of the sea, magicians are even more scarce resources. In case the other party offered a few hundred gold coins, these people really couldn't make up it. Don't look at the St. Odin every raid that earns thousands of gold coins, but the pirate ship itself is also a big money-eater.

Besides, the financial power is in the hands of the captain, and the first mate can not mobilize much money. This time, the captain left in a hurry, and did not leave any money for everyone.

If only the captain were here, the pirates thought so, but they didn't dare to say it.

If you say this, it is clear that you don't give face to the first mate.

Although Ban Ze has a fierce face, his personality is not very strong, he hesitated: "It's better for me to talk to him, as long as I don't provoke him, I should have a safe journey, right?"

"Banze, maybe not so much trouble. One of the pirates, young and handsome, dressed in gray cotton robes, spoke. Compared to the other pirates, he was like a settling gentleman.

"Oh, what do you think, Cotton Jack?" asked Classer earnestly, Jack was a wild mage and a qualified gunner, and among the pirates, the wild mage was already a high-level talent.

The so-called wild mage is to obtain the ability to meditate without the guidance of a teacher, relying on some magic books and adventures, and further become a professional official magician. Wild mages usually have obvious weaknesses, or shortcomings. However, wild mages will focus their efforts on what they are good at, and in some ways, they can be compared to formal mages.

In the Green Forest or the Arcane Empire, the Wild Mage has no status, but on the St. Odin, Cotton Jack is the fifth. The captain, the first officer, the second officer, the third officer, and then he did.

"That mage is so rich, so rich that I want to rob him. Just look at his magic robes. It was an accident to meet him, so what do we want most from his point of view?"

"Just say it. ”

"If I were and I was on a desert island, the most important thing I wanted was to reach Dragon Island safely. Powerful mages can build their own boats, and this is less than two thousand miles from Dragon Island, and if you give me a magically powered boat, you can reach it in a day and a night. But there were too many demonic beasts in the sea, so he wanted to take our big ship. In addition, he did not have charts. ”

"The charts can't be given to him!" said Banzer firmly.

"Why?" asked Cotton Jack rhetorically.

Ban Zeleng paused for a moment, and said in his heart that if this chart spreads, our capital for eating will be gone. You must know that the bounty of the St. Odin is not low, and it has not been caught, but it can take advantage of the complex sea conditions in the south to avoid the enemy.

"The captain is not here, I can't make this decision. Bandze dodged the question.

The wild mage sighed, and said, "Let me communicate with him, my opinion is that it is better to pull him into the plan." ”

"No, the captain's safety ......"

"We only know that the captain is trapped in Cape Storm, and we are not sure that she has been caught. ”

Cotton Jack's words resonated with everyone. The captain is not only a master of combat, but also a master of camouflage. Before he took control of the St. Odin, the captain had been operating in the Dragon Isle in various capacities.

When the news of the trapped came, the captain might not necessarily be arrested, and the people at Cape Storm might not know the captain's identity at all.

If that's the case, hiring a mage to find out the news won't lead people to mistake them for pirates.

I just don't know, will a magician accept such an employment, what if it requires a lot of money?

"I'm going to talk to him, and if I can't talk about it, I'm responsible. Cotton Jack said calmly.

"Good. Bandzer breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want to negotiate with the magician. Because he doesn't know how to communicate. Maybe after two more years, I should retire. His own ability is not enough to be the first mate. If it weren't for the captain's previous affection, he would have been a combat sailor at best.

Xia He was reading a book in the cabin, and when Cotton Jack knocked on the door, the door opened automatically.

Master Ye stood at the door and said, "Your Excellency the Venerable Mage, can I come in?"

Xia He looked up and looked at Jack Cotton. The wild mage is very young, probably similar to himself, he should have the appearance of more than level twelve, his face is elegant, he is wearing a cotton robe, and the magic attribute on it is pitiful. Xia He found one thing, the people on this pirate ship are very clean.

Don't underestimate this, it's rare. Corsair ships float on the sea all year round, and fresh water resources are scarce. With such a large ship and hundreds of sailors, it stands to reason that it is impossible to bathe. If the ship had provided good enough hygienic conditions, the price would not be small, and the captain of the ship would have been an interesting man.

"Come in. Xia He put the book away, and saw that there was a trace of fanaticism and envy in the eyes of the wild mage. What he read was magic notes, the perceptions of some magicians in their practice, and a lot of observations, research on legends, and so on. This kind of book is dozens of gold coins, or even hundreds of gold coins.

The Magic Council bought these at a high price, and deliberately destroyed the copies, so the price of similar notes could not fall.

A wild mage like him doesn't have enough money, so he can't afford to buy this kind of book. You must know that when magicians take notes, most of them use magic, and in addition to words, they can also experience more information in the notes, which only magicians can perceive. There are many, many secret words in the notes, mysterious locks, sometimes hidden treasures, and some hidden mysterious skills.

"Your Excellency......"

Xia He smiled and said to Cotton Jack: "You are also a mage yourself, you don't have to be so restrained, my name is Asla, what about you?"

"Jack, they call me Cotton Jack. When Master Wild introduced himself, he subconsciously stroked his cotton robe with his hand, this nickname, a bit ironic, was to say that he was very poor, not like a mage.

"Jack, please be seated. ”

Cotton Jack sat down generously and asked, "Asla...... What do you think of pirates?"

"A career with no future. Xia He replied casually.

"No future?" Xia He's words surprised Cotton Jack, who had thought that Xia He would despise the pirate from another angle.

"Of course, if you have enough power, you should form a nation, form a navy, control the shipping routes, and control trade. How much money can you make by robbing? Look at the Holy Thunder Empire in the Leo Continent, controlling the trade between the Green Forest Continent and the Green Forest Continent, it is very rich. People are blatantly taking money from the caravan, and there is no need to rob it at all. ”

"Thanks for the advice. Cotton Jack saluted Xia He respectfully.

"You're welcome, then, they sent you here to agree to my terms?"

"Mr. Mage wants to stay on board...... I have one more question. If you think piracy is a profession with no future, why would you be interested in paying for a visit?"

"Knowledge is priceless, and realistically, maybe one day, I'll need a pirate fleet. ”

Seeing Cotton Jack's confused face, Xia He laughed and said, "If I become a king and want to control the route, and there are no pirates on the route, how can the merchant be willing to pay for protection?"

Cotton Jack is cold, this mage is so evil!
