Arcane Lord

On the newly named "Lucky Owen", Xia Duo stood on the bow of the ship, with the warm spring and summer wind blowing on his face, as if his lover's hands were gently caressing him, soft and warm.

This is the first time Xia Duo has been on a boat since time travel. Of course, it is also the first time it is so enjoyable. It is even more enjoyable than the first time he learned magic.

Ahead is a world that belongs to him alone, allowing him to do as he pleases and freely. Although he knew that he couldn't stay under someone else's roof for the time being, it didn't stop him from thinking about it.

Just when Xia Duo was thinking about the vast world and the great achievements, Gibb came out of the cabin and said, "Sir, there are soldiers who are seasick. Can you let them go outside the cabin to enjoy the wind?"

"Okay, tell them all to come out."

Although this ship is only a small cargo ship, in Xia Duo's eyes, it is more than enough for two teams of people to stand on the deck.

Xia Duo is not a strict person, so he will still agree to such a small thing.

Soon, four or five soldiers staggered out of the cabin, leaning against the railing and breathing heavily. After they came out, the rest of the soldiers also sprang out and walked around on the deck.

…

Xia Duo and others set out in the morning and sailed down the river. Although it was against the wind, it was faster than normal sailing. When it was almost dusk in the afternoon, Owen sent someone to inform Xia Duo——

The landing point [Youyou Reading www.uutxt.vip] is coming soon!

Xia Duo was refreshed. He was finally there. The distance that looked like less than a palm on the map would take so long in reality.

Tired of the warm warm wind blowing from morning to afternoon, Chateau immediately ordered all soldiers to prepare for landing!

Owen's word "almost there" was indeed very fast. Just after all the soldiers gathered on the deck with their equipment on their backs, Shado could feel the ship slowing down significantly.

Looking at the surrounding environment and comparing it with the spell map transcribed by the lord, Xia Duo recognized that this place was less than 200 meters away from the landing point he selected.

At this distance, in just a few words, Irving docked the boat on the shore. Of course, it was the shore, but it was only slightly east of the middle.

There is still one or two meters away from the shore.

The original river bank was not a pier that had been artificially repaired. It allowed ships to dock at will. The springboard was set up, and Xia Duo was preparing to order the soldiers to land.

But suddenly he found stampede marks further south of the landing point. To be cautious, he quickly stopped the landing operation. Now he was very precious to these soldiers.

Lord Saville did not say how long he would borrow Jibu's team, nor did he even say "borrow". He just said that he would give a team of soldiers to Xia Duo, and Xia Duo already regarded these people as being led by Daxia.

The other team is composed of people from the territory who have been adventurers. These people are 100% from the Daxia territory. The loss of any one of them is 1/56.

Therefore, Xia Duo decided to go and see the situation for himself.

At this time, Xia Duo was dressed as an adventurer, wearing leather armor and a one-handed sword hanging on his waist. If the armor hadn't affected his mobility and the price was too expensive, he would have bought a set of full-body iron armor. .

"Gibb, give me your sword."

Gibb did not doubt that he was there, so he took out the sword from his waist and handed it to Sha Duo. Sha Duo took Gibb's sword and observed it carefully, and found that this guy's sword was better than his.

There was an obvious blue light in the blade, and it was obviously a weapon containing fine gold. It was at least more qualified to be a fine gold weapon than Xia Duo's "adamant gold" dagger.

Holding it with one hand, the hilt of the sword fit perfectly into his palm. For a moment, Xia Duo actually had the illusion that this was his weapon.

After swinging it a few times, it weighs about 7 or 8 pounds, but it is too light for Xia Duo's 100 pounds of strength in one hand. If it were a full adamantine weapon, it might be about the same.

Holding the sword, Xia Duo pointed to the trampled mark he found and ordered: "Gibu, you stay here, I will go over there and take a look."

"Sir! No!" Gibb quickly persuaded, "There should be traces of animals drinking water there, which will not affect the landing. If you are worried, I will go and investigate in person, and please stay on the boat until we build a temporary The camp is disembarking.”

Gibb's expression was serious, but Xia Duo insisted on his own opinion. Territory development was not an outing and vacation. There was no way it was 100% safe. He was willing to go out because he had full confidence in his own strength.

If these soldiers go out, he will be distressed for a long time if any of them dies. At the first stage, he must ensure that every living force is alive to create value.

It's not time for them to fight hard yet.

During the Orc War, Xia Duo also experienced the death of his teammates, but those people had little to do with him, and he didn't feel bad about them even if they died.

But now that he is in charge of his own business, his mentality is completely different.

"Captain Gibb, there is no need to persuade me, just do your own thing."

After saying that, Xia Duo jumped off the boat amidst a burst of exclamations, but he did not fall into the water, but stood firmly on the water.

Gibb was almost dumbfounded now. He knew that the mage could fly and teleport, but before today, he didn't know that the mage could actually walk on the water.

The other soldiers were also very surprised. Even the crew members resting in the bilge couldn't help but poke their heads out when they heard the sound and looked around at the hatch for no apparent reason.

…

On the other side, Xia Duo came to the place where the trampled marks were taken out. First, he stood in the middle of the river and looked at it from a distance. There was no shadow of the drinking animals that Gibb said.

Chateau put his hand into the water, closed his eyes, and felt the sensation spread along the water body in the Wolfburg River, first to both sides, and then to the upstream and downstream.

About halfway through, Xia Duo suddenly withdrew his hand, and his originally clear perception of this section of water suddenly became blurred.

But the perception was not interrupted, as if this small section of the river had become a part of him.

Reaching his hand into the water again, Xia Duo perceived everything in the water - water plants, mud, a few small fish, and no strange creatures.

Retracting his hand from the water again, Xia Duo walked towards the footprints on the shore. The awakening of his blood gave Xia Duo powerful strength, but this strength was only one of the manifestations of a strong body.

Even without specially trained hearing, Xia Duo could easily hear the tiny sounds around him. Xia Duo scanned vigilantly, and at the same time used Gib's fine gold sword to clear the weeds, dead branches, and small trees on the shore.

There was only the sound of wind, water, and the voices on the boat in his ears.

Stepping onto the shore, Xia Duo stepped on a round stone that was smoothed by the water flow. With a "pop", a line of water splashed out from the bottom of the stone.

It just happened to hit the invisible force field of Xiaduo's [Mage Armor], instantly losing kinetic energy and falling down.

Xiaduo frowned, ignored this little thing, and continued to move forward.

The further in, the more obvious the traces of trampling, and Xiaduo could almost tell that these were not traces left by animals.

After all, what kind of animal would walk on a crooked and burred road? This must be left by an intelligent creature, and judging from this extremely rough trace, the intelligence is not very high.

Xiaduo thought of goblins at the first time, but do goblins need water?

Hehe——
