Chapter 63: The Duchy of Locke
......
Vane watched the Sea Clans depart, and could tell from the few words they had spoken that they had sensed that the Sea Tribes had detected the presence of demons on the ship, and had suddenly attacked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the eyes of others, these sea tribes are obviously crazy, this is the sorcerer's ship, where did the demons come from. You must know that demons are abyssal creatures that feed on human souls, and even the evil dark wizards on the continent have an attitude towards demons that they want to kill them all. How could there be room for a high-level abyss demon here.
But as long as Vane knows, there is really an abyss demon hidden on this ship, and the level is extremely high!
"Yolanda!!" Vane looked at Catherine in the distance.
Now Yolanda should be in the hands of this woman, who has either been controlled by Yolanda, or has not yet discovered Yolanda in the body of Robot One.
Vane is not afraid of Yolanda, because as long as he still occupies the body of One, he will always be suppressed by the program implanted in the body of the Singularity. The next time he dares to appear in front of Vane, Vane will be able to immediately reconnect Singularity with One, and once again control the head of the Abyss Demon.
Catherine was acting normally, and Vane couldn't tell anything unusual from her face.
"This woman looks simple and innocent, not like some scheming person. Vane's level of seeing people is still very high: "Is it true that she hasn't discovered the demon soul in the robot's body?"
The group quickly counted the casualties and set sail again, a small episode that did not attract the attention of the two official wizards, Haig and Yuna. At this time, everyone had already abandoned the original giant ship that had sunk, and instead took the new ship compensated by the Golden Scale Clan and continued to sail.
By the fifth day, a black land in the distance had appeared in front of everyone on board.
The destination has finally arrived.
The Duchy of Locke, located on the northern coast of the mainland, is a small principality with a population of more than one million.
The world has a large population base, and millions can only be regarded as a small principality.
Although the country has a small population and is not very powerful, it has never been harassed by its neighbors. The reason is simple, this is an enclave of Bones Town in the northern part of the continent.
The so-called enclave, as the name suggests, means that although it is far from the mainland, it is still nominally under the jurisdiction of the town of barren bones.
The Bones Town is located in a huge rotten swamp in the western part of the continent, hundreds of thousands of miles away. However, fortunately, there are several giant teleportation arrays in the principality, which can achieve ultra-long-distance teleportation, so that the academy has not broken the connection here.
There are several official wizards of the academy in the Principality of Locke all year round, and ordinary forces do not dare to come to find trouble.
Yuna and Haig docked their ships in a harbor in the principality's capital and landed with their group.
Locke City, the capital of the Principality of Locke, is a port city near the sea, with prosperous economy and trade, and people of all kinds come and go here all year round, and it is very lively.
After Vane and the others entered the city, they did not teleport away directly, but found a few hotels to stay in. The next day, Wayne was surprised to find that there were more than twenty teenagers and girls in his group.
"Harold, who are they?" Vane asked as he turned to a black-robed wizard apprentice beside him.
In the past few days, Vane has successfully blended with these black-robed wizard apprentices. After all, Vane is also a prospective student of the academy now, although they still can't be treated equally, but at least some basic questions, they still have to answer them.
Harold himself was born as a wandering wizard and later joined the town of Bones by chance. Therefore, he was much more polite to Vane than the others.
"These people are from the major wizarding families on the northern coast. Harold looked at the well-dressed men with envy and said casually.
"People from the wizarding family!" Vane suddenly understood.
The enrollment process of Bones Town and Radiant Wings is actually basically the same, most of them recruit apprentices recommended by major wizard families, followed by wandering wizard apprentices on the mainland.
These apprentices from the major wizarding families in the northern part of the continent were all red-faced, arrogant, and high-spirited. It is a great honor to be able to enter the five legendary wizard academies in the mainland to study and study.
Most of these people were born with a systematic wizarding education, and their elders escorted them all the way. He has all kinds of witchcraft props all over his body, and his connections are all over the academy. It can be said that they are the best group of all students, and they are also the group with the brightest future
Compared to them, Vane and the other wandering wizard apprentices suddenly looked much shabby.
Even Vane now has only one witchcraft prop in his hand, which is Robot Number Two standing on his shoulder.
Harold couldn't help but envy: "Sometimes, you have to believe that there is such a thing as fate in this world. Otherwise, how could anyone go to great lengths to knock on the door of the Legendary Academy, and some people were born with a name already in mind. People like us who were born as wandering wizard apprentices may have worked hard all their lives, but they can't reach the level of others at the beginning. ”
"Fate?" Vane shook his head, "The last thing I believe in is fate. ”
Harold didn't care, turned around and patted Vane on the shoulder, and pointed at the group of people: "Brother, I kindly give you a piece of advice, you better get along with those people quickly, if you can climb up to the children of a certain big family, it will be much better if you get to the academy." ”
Without looking at Vane's expression, Harold turned to leave.
Vane shook his head, he had experienced the richness of the way of nature Harold meant. If you can get close to this group of family members, the road will naturally be much smoother, but Vane is naturally unwilling to be someone else's subordinate, he was and still is.
"There's still a long way to go, let's see who can laugh at the end. ”
......
Next.
A city-shattering event occurred when a notorious underground gang was wiped out overnight in a slum north of the city, and hundreds of people died in a sealed basement.
The security team rushed to the scene of the incident as soon as they received the report, and everyone was stunned by the scene that appeared in front of them.
Hundreds of corpses were piled up and crammed into a room, each body dry and eeriely waxy yellow. The deceased's expression was distorted, as if he had undergone some inhumane torture before he died.
The case is irrepressibly circulating among the people, although the dead are some notorious villains, but after all, they are all fresh lives. And the number of deaths is rare in the entire Principality of Locke.
Rumors have begun to circulate, some say that they were punished by the gods, and some say that they were simply harvested by demons.
When the news reached Vane, his first reaction was that Yolanda had done it, and this high-ranking demon was now extremely weak and desperately in need of human souls as tribute.
But it's not easy for him to say this kind of thing, otherwise he won't be able to get out of the relationship.
