Captain Lucky Owen in the room.

Xia Duo had just finished drawing a map, and at this moment there was a knock on the door behind him, and he put the map away casually, Xia Duo got up and stretched, and then said, "Come in!" ”

The person who came was Captain Owen, who seemed a little surprised to see Xia Duo get up, "My lord, the fleet is about to dock and rest, do you need to get off the ship and move?" We're going to leave the mainland, and we'll never run into any other territory until Savile territory. ”

"Huh! So fast?! "Xia Duo had already taken a rough look at the interior two days ago, and he had been drawing and sorting out the map for the past two days, and he had not used any more exploration spells, and he had neglected the voyage of the fleet a little.

If there are no other territories south from here to the Savile Territory, then isn't this place-

Rodney Collar?!

Almost at the same time, a lot of information about Rodney's collar popped out of Xia Duo's mind at once-

The first lord was born in the Kieran Tower, and he went out on his own a long time ago and opened up the Rodney Territory, and the Rodney Territory at that time, like the Savile Territory, was far away from the core area of Colorless, but it was only later that people continued to open up and connect the Rodney Territory and the Colorless Core Area.

The current lord of Rodney is named "Ozkal", and his reputation in the Savile Lords even surpasses that of the Grand Arcanist, and he is rumored to be the "estrus ram of the north", giving birth to children with his life.

Priest Cole, who had been to the Great Xia Territory and wanted to become the chief advisor of Xia Duo, was from the Rodney Domain, and then Archmage Newman forcibly opened up the Green Bead Forest under the instruction of Lord Rodney.

And Xia Duo, who had long regarded the Green Bead Forest as something in his bag, was hindered by the princess's pioneering movement, and could not oppose and destroy it openly, so Liang Zi was settled.

In addition, according to information provided by Lord Hawke, the Rodney Lords are also linked to a mysterious organization that is wreaking havoc in the Savile Lords.

It's just that Xia Duo himself knows these things, and the presidents of those chambers of commerce don't know, and Captain Owen doesn't know either, and resting in Rodney is really not in line with Xia Duo's wishes.

After thinking about it, he instructed: "After docking, replenish some food, and set off immediately, don't rest here." ”

The so-called rest, in addition to people going ashore to rest and replenish food, in fact, the most important thing is to check the state of the ship, which may need to be repaired or maintained, and it will be more convenient to have a port.

But if you don't have it, you can actually overhaul and maintain it wherever you park, especially if there is an arcane master like Xia Duo on the ship, where you stop is not parked, there are tools and materials on the ship.

A whole six ships, if not for the materials, tools, and food, could have carried hundreds more people.

……

After Captain Owen left, Chateau continued to draw the map, first projecting a bird's-eye view, then simplifying the complex, then doing some abstraction, and finally communicating the projection, and performing [transcription] on the ink.

During the maintenance period, Xia Duo prepared several sheets of parchment paper and laid them flat on the table, like laser engraving, scanning from top to bottom.

Soon, an identical simplified map appeared on each parchment.

That's it, the two bottles of ink are gone, and if you want to "print" more, you'll need to increase the ink when casting spells, but Xia Duo doesn't need much backup.

The main reason is that he feels that only one spell is "printed", which is somewhat wasteful, so he printed a few more copies, and this is only a map of a part of the area.

It can be used on its own, but Chado's purpose is not just that, he wants to make a relatively complete map of the color-resistant interior that includes many areas.

……

After a few moments, the ship stopped, and Xia Duo no longer continued to draw, but summoned the other ships to keep them on alert, resupply them as soon as possible, and then leave.

After that, Xia Duo cast a detection spell to check the situation outside, and always be on guard against the Rodney Collar.

At this time, he realized the feeling that Archmage Newman was in Savile at the beginning, and he didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

Rodney Collar also has a mage tower erected by the river, similar to the Savile Lord, and most importantly, Rodney has more than one mage tower, and there is also a mage tower that is somewhat similar to this one by the river not far away.

It felt like someone was putting a dagger behind him, and it was very unpleasant.

However, out of his understanding of most of the functions of the Tower of Time, Xia Duo was more wary than afraid of the two mage towers led by Rodney.

As long as you don't get close to them, it's still okay to run.

After observing for a while, Xia Duo didn't notice anything unusual for the time being, and was about to check the vigilance magic on the ship again, when he noticed that Captain Owen's nephew, the first mate Ruth on the "Owen", suddenly ran towards the dock.

"No pursuers behind?"

Puzzled, Ruth had already run back to the ship, seeing his posture, he was coming straight to the captain's room, Xia Duo temporarily stopped probing the spell, and as soon as he opened the door, he heard Ruth shouting in a suppressed voice:

"My lord, it's not good!"

Xia Duo first quietly checked whether there were any traces of magic on Ruth's body, and then calmly asked, "What the hell is going on, tell me slowly!" ”

"My lord, Rodney doesn't sell food to us in any of its stores!"

"Huh?"

Xia Duo frowned, that's it? It's too low-level, even if they can't buy supplies, can't they go back to their last territory to buy them?

Subconsciously, he felt that there was a conspiracy here, so he asked, "How much food is left on the ship?" Is it enough to return to Savile? ”

"We'll sail for at least a month, and with the fact that we're going to stay at Lake Mecht for a while, even if we fish on the way, the food on board will probably not be enough for us to return to Savile territory." Ruth replied.

"Then why didn't you have supplies in the last territory?"

"The Rodney Territory is the southernmost territory in the interior, and most of the ships going to the south are resupplied here, once when they leave, and again when they return."

“……”

Xia Duo was speechless, it seemed that Owen and they really didn't know the delicate relationship between the Rodney Territory and the Saville Territory, "Go and inform the people who came ashore to come back, and then inform the other ships, we will go back to the last territory to replenish, don't stay in the Rodney Territory in the future." ”

Extreme Soul Chaos

Ruth answered, turned and left.

And Xia Duo was still standing at the door, constantly thinking in his heart, although the Rodney Collar was only providing supplies now, would it intercept the ship of the Great Xia Collar in the future?

What kind of psychology did Lord Rodney make such a decision, isn't he afraid that he will do the same in Saville Harbor, Archmage Newman has not yet carved out a self-sufficient territory in the Green Bead Forest!

Even if the development is successful, it is not difficult to make trouble.

Why, exactly?

Until the fleet turned around and began to go north, Xia Duo was still thinking about this problem, he really couldn't figure it out, what else could this little method of pain and itch do in addition to disgusting people?

Or is it some kind of precursor?

Is the mysterious organization going to do something again?
