Chapter 52: It's Probably a Farce (Ask for Follow-up)
After finalizing the follow-up course of action, Lynn looked at Jonny again and spoke.
"Although we have managed to escape from the Holy See this time, we have also destroyed a very important shipping route, and when we reach the harbor of Iyeta, we may be condemned, and I will explain it at that time."
Jonny realized that they seemed to have caused a big disaster, and his heart was suddenly worried, but seeing that Lynn was extremely calm, he was a little relieved.
Next, the two of them thought about the troubles they might encounter after entering the harbor of Iyeta, and discussed the countermeasures roughly until finally Lynn hesitated for a moment and spoke again.
"That's right...... From now on, you should call me Lynn, this is my new pseudonym. Now that he has become a wizard, it is better not to continue to use his past identity, lest something happen in the future and affect his family. ”
……
The huge sail warship drifted on the sea for half a month before it finally broke out of the fog, and the outline of a huge island as far as the eye could see was already visible.
"Hurry up, work hard~ We're about to arrive, and the harbor of Iyeta is ahead!" Lauder shouted loudly, and the sailors on the ship were all puffed up, and no one wanted to stay in that damn fog.
At this moment, Lynn was standing on the deck looking into the distance, and as the hull of the ship gradually approached, the port city in front of him was clearly visible.
However, several patrol boats cruising the sea nearby also quickly surrounded them.
The ships were peculiar in appearance, they were generally flat, with no poles to be seen in the hull, and no large, high sails of that kind, but instead a tube erected on the compartment of the hull, which suddenly smoked outward.
Steamboats? Lynn looked at him with interest, and Lauder, who was on the side, saw that he was interested, so he explained a word.
"These alchemy ships are unique to the Wizarding Lands, and they are much faster than the sail warships under our feet, and they are not susceptible to strong winds......"
As he spoke, the sail battleship had slowly docked under the 'escort' of several alchemy ships.
The sailors skillfully lowered the rudder and planks, and a wizard in a teal robe was already standing at the docks.
"Long time no see, Theodore, my old friend!" Lauder strode off the boat, hugged the wizard warmly, and then turned his head and pointed to the two behind him, and said:
"This is Lord Lynn and Miss Jonny!"
"It's rare, it's been a few days since an outside wizard set foot here." Theodore's scrutinizing gaze lingered on the two of them for a few moments before speaking. "But...... Welcome to the harbor of Iyeta, it won't be long before you'll love it completely! ”
"Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Theodore!" Lynn responded without humility or arrogance, and Jonny saluted respectfully.
Theodore briefly said a few polite words, and then looked at Lauder again. "By the way, old cripple, why did you come here in person this year? There's still a sail warship, is something going on? ”
If he hadn't used the alchemy eyepiece to find Lauder standing on the deck, the magic crystal cannon placed in the harbor would have been activated a long time ago.
"I'm afraid things are more complicated than you think, we need to meet Master Helram to explain the situation himself!" Lauder said very solemnly.
Hearing what Lauder said so solemnly, the smile on Theodore's face immediately retracted, and he said with a frown. "Master Hellam is not in the academy now, so let me take you to him."
Lauder was also aware of the process, and before leaving, he specifically instructed all sailors to stay on board and wait for review.
Since the distance was not far, the group did not take the car, but followed Theodore on foot towards the city.
The inner city of the harbor of Iyeta is completely different from the scene in the empire, the black cedar pavement is clean and smooth, the street is wide enough to accommodate three carriages running at the same time, the rows of buildings with white walls and red roofs are scattered, and even the trees and flowers on the side of the street are extremely standardized, revealing a strong Western classical style......
Although Jonny and Lauder had also traveled to the Land of the Wizards, they were still shocked to revisit it.
Lynn almost thought that she had crossed over again, if the people of the Secas Empire were still living in the Middle Ages of Evil, then the Wizarding Lands had quickly jumped to the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
"Oh, look over there, how about it, isn't it beautiful?" Walking on a stone road leading to the depths of the city, Theodore pointed to a large fountain and sculptures of different shapes and shapes in the city, and introduced it very smugly.
"The entire harbor of Iyeta was designed by Master Raphael, the most famous architect and sculptor in the entire wizarding lands."
Then he must have an obsessive-compulsive disorder...... Lynn complained secretly in her heart.
All the buildings in the whole harbor of Iyeta are neatly arranged, and there is no difference between the left and right sides, and if one decorative flowerbed is placed on one side, there must be another identical flowerbed on the other!
However, after seeing the scene in the city, Lynn can understand why most wizards prefer to stay in the land of wizards, and no one who has experienced such an environment will want to return to the dirty, messy, and stinking Secas Empire.
Along the way, Theodore introduced the people to everything about the harbor of Iyeta, from the pavement to the architectural design, and even the details to the materials used to make each sculpture, and then admired the surprised and shocked expressions on the faces of the people.
Whenever someone from outside the wizarding lands arrived here, a strong sense of superiority always rose in his heart.
Lynn looked around this unique harbor city with great interest, his eyes swept over each building, such an ancient architectural style, he had only seen it in the black and white photos in the database, and at the same time he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, there were a few people on this street, right?
After entering the inner city, they saw no more than a hundred people combined.
Just as he was thinking, there was a sudden noise and noise ahead, and Lynn looked ahead to find that the huge square in the center of the city was already crowded with people, and it seemed that there was a tendency to gather more and more.
"Is there any celebration today?" Lynn asked with a little curiosity.
Theodore opened his mouth, stopped talking, and finally shook his head, rather helplessly. "No, it's probably a farce!"
