Chapter 256 Ready to set sail
"Crack!"
The trident in Prince Haz's hand fell directly to the beach.
Covering his head with his hands, he knelt on one knee in pain!
Obviously, the death of the strange conch caused a certain amount of mental backlash.
Richard did not continue to attack Prince Haz, after all, it was not a life and death battle.
The wizards of the Sliding Blade clan on the side immediately shouted loudly:
"Humans, we surrender!"
"No! I can still fight!" At this time, Prince Haz stared at Richard with bloodshot eyes and roared.
The death of the strange conch not only caused a mental backlash to Prince Haz, but also made him feel even more uncomfortable.
He failed in the battle with humans, which disgraced him. At the same time, he also lost the ownership of the ruins, which was a real loss.
In addition, the strange conch is an extraordinary creature that he has tamed for many years and has accompanied him in battles for many years, but he did not expect to die on this unknown island.
"Prince Haz, if you continue, your probability of winning is not high!" A Sliding Blade Naga said.
"Yes, Your Highness, please think twice." Several other Sliding Blade Naga wizards agreed.
Several people quickly stepped forward to support Prince Haz.
After Prince Haz took a deep look at Richard, he climbed onto the giant seahorse without looking back. A group of Sliding Blade Naga wizards followed closely behind and disappeared from everyone's sight.
After the wizards of the Sliding Blade Naga clan left, Richard, wearing a silver mask, suddenly became the focus of the human wizards present.
You know, if Richard hadn't stepped in to turn the tide just now, the battle between humans and the Sea Clan would have definitely been won by the Sea Clan.
Now with Richard, it is the human side that has obtained the right to explore the ruins of the Ancient Tide Academy.
The human wizards around him came forward one by one and said to Richard with a smile:
"This Lord from the Ring of North, your strength is truly amazing."
"Yes, sir, your strength can be said to be unparalleled among first-level wizards."
"Sir, do you have any plans for the subsequent exploration of the ruins?"
"."
Many compliments poured into Richard's ears like a tide, and the wizards' erudition was deeply reflected in their flattery. The compliments spoken by the former person were absolutely different from the flattery of the latter person.
This made Richard feel helpless. He rubbed his eyebrows with his fingers and sighed:
"A bunch of talented people, not very strong, but all of them are eloquent."
Some also tried to use words to judge the origin of Richard, a powerful wizard, and Richard's thoughts on the next exploration of the ruins.
After all, anyone can see that Richard is a wizard who majors in the undead system, and there is no conflict with wizards like them who major in the water system.
But in the secret realm left over from ancient times, there might be some rare herbs that Richard needs.
If Richard took advantage of the power he had just defeated Prince Haz and took away an extra piece of cake, they could only stare in disbelief.
That's why they are so anxious.
At this time, Daenerys and Elise also came forward with smiles on their faces.
When Richard saw Daenerys coming, he couldn't help but look happy and said:
"Everyone, Her Highness Daenerys is the official representative of the negotiations with the Sea Tribe. Regarding the subsequent exploration and arrangement of the secret realm, I entrust Her Highness Daenerys to be my plenipotentiary representative. What she means is what I mean."
Many wizards around looked at each other for a while, and then focused their attention on Daenerys again.
I thought that this powerful mysterious wizard would take the lead in the subsequent exploration of the ruins, but unexpectedly, in a roundabout way, the leadership returned to Daenerys again.
This made Daenerys feel quite surprised and a little embarrassed at the same time. She thought to herself: "Richard is still the same as before, very slick!"
But who made her the official representative of the Heron Kingdom.
Daenerys could only give up the idea of chatting with Richard, calm down, and discuss with everyone the candidates to crack the witch formation, as well as the arrangements for subsequent exploration, etc.
"Everyone, let's first arrange for wizards who are proficient in witch formations to break the outer defensive witch formations." An old man with a white beard spoke.
"Yes, as for how to allocate the resources in the secret realm, after the witch formation is cracked, everyone can discuss their opinions."
"."
After a long time, Daenerys was able to escape, and she left the remaining trivial issues to Elise.
When Daenerys came to Richard, she didn't know what to say for a moment.
The man next to her was both familiar and unfamiliar to her.
And whenever I faced him, I couldn't calm down in my heart.
Especially when Richard stared at her unblinkingly, she immediately lowered her head shyly.
Daenerys found that she had too many questions to ask Richard, but she didn’t know where to start.
But soon, Daenerys adjusted her mentality and said with a slight blush on her face:
"Richard. Why are you here?"
Richard smiled slightly and said softly: "Do you still remember our agreement? We agreed half a year ago that if I become an official wizard, I can come to Pantos to find you."
"It turns out I succeeded!"
"By the way, should you keep your promise?" Richard looked at Daenerys' pretty face seriously and asked.
He just secretly changed a concept.
In fact, Daenerys did not promise Richard anything during the half-year appointment, it was just an agreement.
It was agreed that if Richard could become an official wizard within half a year, he could try to come to Pentos to find her.
"What, what promise?" Daenerys asked shyly and confused, opening her big eyes.
After Richard got a little closer, he whispered something in Daenerys's ear.
Immediately, Daenerys blushed.
"I never promised that!"
"Hey! Then why did you ask me to meet in Pantos?" Richard teased with a smile.
"me."
Just when Daenerys was confused and didn't know how to answer, suddenly, there was a noise from the direction of the ruins.
"The defensive witch formation has been cracked!"
"I didn't expect it to be cracked so quickly!"
"."
Unexpectedly, the defensive wizard formation that was originally expected to take at least half a day to be broken was broken so quickly.
It was beyond everyone's expectation.
This also made it impossible for the conversation between the two to continue.
Because next, we will start busy exploring related matters.
Daenerys smoothed her hair and said, "Richard, let's go over and take a look first."
"By the way. If I explore the secret realm later, can you come with me?"
"Of course!" Richard nodded and agreed immediately.
The two then walked towards the crowd.
It turned out that many of the defensive witchcraft formations had been damaged over the course of time. Therefore, after part of them was cracked, a chain of damage was caused.
This allowed the entire witch formation cracking work to be solved at an unexpected speed.
After a wizard who had practiced the art of clones conducted a preliminary exploration of the secret realm and confirmed that the secret space inside was stable, many wizards present couldn't help but start to get excited.
But after the good news comes the bad news.
This secret place used to plant and cultivate rare herbs has been left unattended for a long time, and a large number of high-value rare herbs have withered due to various reasons.
The only remaining herbs are waterroot, heather, and taro.
This can't help but disappoint many wizards, including Daenerys.
But this does make the distribution of loot easier.
After all, if the value is not high, it is easier to reach an agreement during discussion.
In the end, Richard also received a large number of taro flowers and heather, but since these are commonly used herbs for water-based combat potions, Richard gave them to Daenerys.
"Pullingleng~"
A blood falcon flew in front of Richard.
This is the Blood Falcon from Stephanie.
"Master, the latest news is that Senior Sister Meiluo learned in advance that the route from White Harbor City to Loras Peninsula has been suspended, so she has already taken a detour from Seaweed City to Loras Peninsula."
"Over at White Harbor City, every once in a while, there will be a special ship heading to the Loras Peninsula on the Vitroll continent. This kind of ship is a special ocean-going ship, which is completely different from ordinary offshore ships."
"The next batch of ships heading to the Loras Peninsula will set sail in the next two days."
This news immediately made Richard frown.
Unexpectedly, he and his party arrived at White Harbor City ahead of schedule, but still missed Mei Luo.
However, this also proves that Mei Luo's father or family situation is probably in danger, otherwise Mei Luo would not be in such a hurry to return.
Daenerys on the side saw Richard's slightly frowning brow and said:
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Richard nodded and said, "I may need to go to the Loras Peninsula on the Vitroll continent as soon as possible."
"Hey! You also want to go to the Vitroll Continent. The Loras Peninsula is not far from here. Starting from White Harbor City, you can reach the Loras Peninsula by sailing for about half a month."
"By the way, Richard, can you tell me why you went to Loras Peninsula?" Daenerys asked with a little curiosity.
"Well, it involves my follow-up meditation method clues." Richard paused and continued.
Regarding Daenerys, Richard felt that he could still speak freely.
but
Of course he avoided matters involving Mei Luo's family.
"If the follow-up goes well, I will go to Basileus Island in the Summer Sea, and Ivos Forest in the continent of Vitroll."
"I seem to have heard about the first Basileus Island. The Ivos Forest on the Vitroll continent is tens of thousands of miles away from the Loras Peninsula. It seems that you are unlikely to come back in a short time." Daenerys thought for a moment and then made a judgment.
"Hiss! Is it so far away?" Richard couldn't help but asked in surprise.
On the map, only the characteristic landforms are marked, and the distance can only be estimated.
Richard didn't expect it to be so far away.
"I need to go back to Pantos, and then I will go to Hydraxia College. Richard, if you are going to the Ivos Forest in the Vitroll continent, you can make a detour to Hydraxia College. Then. , I will accompany you to the Forest of Ivers."
Daenerys thought for a moment and then spoke.
This actually made Richard slightly stunned.
Richard did not expect that Daenerys would accompany him to the Forest of Ivos.
The other party's statement made Richard feel happy.
"That's great! It's settled then."
"Well, you go to White Harbor City first, and we'll see you then. This is my communication mark." I saw Daenerys waving her slender fingers, condensing a strange symbol in mid-air.
Richard quickly recorded it and left his communication imprint to Daenerys.
The communication mark can only communicate at close range. When Richard arrives at Hydraxia Academy next time, he will be able to easily contact Daenerys.
"Thank you this time!"
"This is what I should do."
Half an hour later, Richard rode on the hippogryph and headed to White Harbor City.
Although I didn’t have much close contact with Daenerys this time.
But the other party already showed signs of accepting him, which made Richard feel very good!
In less than half a day, Richard arrived at White Harbor City.
When he landed in the City Hall Square, he saw a familiar figure waiting for him.
It was Stephana.
"Master, I understand that the fastest ship to the Loras Peninsula will leave tomorrow. This time, due to the suspension of sailings, the port has squeezed a lot of cargo, so there will be three ocean-going ships arriving at the same time tomorrow. Loras Peninsula.”
"What Count Andreas Lynch, the governor of White Harbor City, means is that you can pay a little attention to the safety of the fleet. For this, the city hall will give you the compensation you deserve."
Richard thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"Of course there is no problem with this. If we travel with the ship, if an unexpected situation occurs and the ship is destroyed and everyone is killed, we will be in a thankless situation on the vast sea."
"By the way, didn't the city hall arrange an accompanying wizard on the boat?" Richard asked doubtfully.
"Yes, Master, but the strength is not very strong. Under normal circumstances, there is only one official wizard on each ship, and the strength is probably at the beginning or middle level of the first level."
"Master, then Count Andreas and I will reply to you." Stephana explained.
Richard nodded.
——
Early the next morning.
When Richard and Stepina, accompanied by the consul Count Andreas, the Sheriff and others, arrived at the dock of White Harbor City, the brackish sea breeze blew in their faces, and the white waves slapped against the ship wall. The chirping of seagulls is endless.
This made Richard feel like he was about to embark on a sailing adventure.
He couldn't help but feel slightly excited.
Soon, everyone came to three five-masted ships.
Only six captains and wizards were seen waiting for Richard and his party by the ship.
"Lord Richard, this is Captain Stanchi Dora of the Mobis." Count Andreas, the consul, enthusiastically introduced to Richard and Stephana.
"It's an honor to meet Lord Richard."
"Who is this"
"."
Richard glanced casually. Among the three wizards accompanying the team, the leader was a middle-aged man. His strength had reached the middle level of the first level. His body was surrounded by fire energy ions. He seemed to be a wizard who majored in the fire system.
The first time the other party saw Richard, he came forward to say hello very enthusiastically:
"Sir, your battle against Prince Haz on the island was really exciting to watch!"
