Chapter 4 Set Sail
"Magic stones?"
Link took the news to heart and secretly wrote it down.
But not to mention the wizard's currency, the magic stone, he hasn't even touched a single gold coin that is common on the island.
After more than a year of hard work, I saved 10 silver coins piecemeal, which met the first charge conditions of at least 1 gold coin or 10 silver coins in the krypton gacha system.
After that, you can exchange krypton gold for the number of gachases, and you will get 10 gold coins or 100 silver coins.
"Make money!"
Link sighed, it seems that no matter what world you are in, you have to make money.
"Which of you has a magic stone?" Jimny asked suddenly.
Both Chris and Christina shook their heads, and Link calmly spread his hands.
Jasmine hesitated for a moment before whispering, "My family gave me two pieces." β
Tsk, rich woman.
Link sighed jokingly in his heart, but he didn't have anything else in mind.
As long as you are willing to struggle, there will be gold coins, and there will be magic stones.
But at this point, it's a bit of an end to the topic.
It was just a hearty lunch, and the five of them were a little drowsy, so they tacitly stopped chatting, and each of them lay on their backs on their seats, closing their eyes and taking a nap.
It was only then that Link had time to delve into the "Occlumency" he had drawn.
Derived from the Harry Potter world, "Occlumency" is a magical art that seals the brain to resist the infiltration and invasion of spirits from the outside world.
The basic level of "Occlumency" mainly works by clearing the mind of memories and emotions, and becomes like a wooden man, in order to fight against the "regents".
In other words, Link's "Occlumency" has just started, and he can clear his mind of distracting thoughts at any time, and his mind is empty and his mindfulness is consistent.
In its more advanced form, Occlumency can be used to erase, disguise, or shape specific memories and emotions.
In Link's view, this is another sense of freewheeling.
Link believes that "Occlumency" will play a big role in the future.
Thinking like this, Link slowly fell asleep as well.
However, it didn't take long for the hovering car to stop.
The seaport of Captopril arrived.
Wizard Paro stepped out of the front compartment and got out of the car first, followed by five new wizard apprentices.
The harbor is bustling, with boats constantly coming in and out and people coming and going.
But strangely, no one noticed that a hovering car stopped not far from them, and another group of people stepped out of the car as if they were completely out of sight.
"Invisibility? Or is it a Muggle banishment? Link was on the reins, guessing at will.
Wizard Paro reached back.
The hovercar shrank to the size of a palm at breakneck speed and flew into the hands of Wizard Paro.
"This ......"
Link was stunned by Wizard Paro's hand.
The size is as good as it gets? Magic weapon?
It's so cool, I want it too!
Link salivated, looking like he had never seen the world.
Jimny, Chris, Christina, and Jasmine were much better, having apparently seen this scene before.
"Board the ship."
Wizard Paro was as concise as ever, moving quickly through the crowd that automatically moved out of the way.
His goal was also very clear, the all-metal sea-going ship that occupied the largest pier in the harbor, the White Sails.
It was only then that Link noticed that the all-metal ocean-going vessel stood out among the wooden sailing ships in the harbor.
Today, since participating in the wizard qualification test, the heart that has been repeatedly shocked has been shocked again.
This is not a simple matter of a ship, it means that the level of industry of the main continent that is about to be traveled far exceeds that of the Quat Islands, and even more so than Link expected.
Doesn't it mean that the social environment and development process of the wizarding world are similar to those of the Western Middle Ages, and that they are very backward in all aspects except for the commendable attribution of great power to themselves?
Obviously, the Quit Islands fit this premise, but ......
All-metal ocean-going vessels, even in Link's previous life, where science and technology were quite developed, there were few countries that could manufacture them alone.
"The frog at the bottom of the well turned out to be myself, sitting in the well and watching the sky!"
Link introspected in time, believing that he had to put aside his prejudices and preconceived positions, and that he had to integrate into the wizarding world with humility, so as not to make the mistake of being arrogant in the future.
While thinking like this, Link had already followed Wizard Paro to the White Sails.
The front section of the White Sails has a gangway that connects to the pier.
Wizard Paro led the five Link men through the gangway and boarded the ship.
There is a small door at the top of the gangway, which is unattended.
Wizard Paro reached into his pocket with his right hand and pulled out a flat cuboid and pressed it against the square slab that protruded slightly in the middle of the door.
"Welcome back, honorable Wizard Paro."
The tablet lit up with a glowing blue light, scanning the cuboid in Wizard Paro's hand, and then emitting a mechanically neutral voice, "Detected five unregistered personnel behind you, are you registered as your attachΓ©?" β
"No."
Wizard Paro replied, "Register as 'new blood'. β
"Okay, it's registered as 'new blood'. Please pick up a temporary pass. β
The sound of the tablet fell, and a tray stretched out from it, on which were five pieces of metal the size of mahjong.
Wizard Paro removed the flat cuboid pressed against the tablet and picked up the five pieces of metal on the tray.
The pallet is immediately retracted.
The small door also opens automatically.
"Take it, don't drop it, it's very troublesome to reissue."
Wizard Paro flicked the piece of metal backwards with his hand, and magically divided one for each of the five people, and it was firmly suspended on each person's chest.
Link quickly caught it and took a look.
The metal sheet is printed with the words "Temporary Pass" on one side and the number of cabins and rooms on the other.
"That's it for me."
Wizard Paro walked in the door, stopped again, and said a few words in a very rare way, "You go to your room by number, there are some materials in it, read and think more for yourself." β
With that, Wizard Paro hurried into the cabin and soon disappeared.
This......
Link and the others looked at each other.
For Link and the others, testing wizard qualifications and traveling to the main continent is a big deal, but for Paro Wizards, it's just a non-technical and time-wasting task.
It's no wonder that Wizard Paro always has a cold and perfunctory posture, and his schedule is so tight.
"Be self-reliant, guys."
Raising the piece of metal in his hand, Link said optimistically.
Then, he was the first to enter the small door, ready to go to the third cabin to find room 3-016.
As soon as he entered the small door, Link noticed a difference.
There seems to be a special substance in the air in the sea boat, or the concentration of special substances is much higher than that of the outside world.
After just a few breaths, Link felt much lighter and his brain was much more active.
The difference is like the difference between the air in a highly polluted factory and the air in a large forest natural oxygen bar.
Link discovers another reason why the wizards of Paro are reluctant to stay longer in the Quat Islands.
