My Magic Age

The situation near Conason Island is very tense. Every day, ships leave the island to gather intelligence about Marquis Boris' fleet, and ships return from reconnaissance. The news brought back by the scouts is summarized and passed to Earl Evan, who issues the recent combat orders.

The island seems very tense every day. In the past two days, many scouts have entered and exited the island, and Earl Evan's face has become uglier day by day.

It is said that Marquis Boris has sent another fleet of fifteen galleon-class sailing ships to be stationed on Conason Island. In this way, Earl Evan's idea of ​​regaining Conason Island has immediately become a bubble.

The people on the island were in a panic, and an atmosphere of anxiety began to grow on the island, with some people going directly to Earl Evan and asking him to fight, wanting to drive a sailboat directly out of the coral reef and fight to the death with the fleet under the command of Marquis Boris that was swimming near Conason Island. However, all those who had this idea were scolded by Earl Evan and sent back to the island for confinement.

Since the island had fresh water, life has become much better.

There is no worry about finding food at the seaside, but there was no fresh water before, and the food caught from the sea was salty. Even if you are hungry, you dare not eat more, because the salt you eat cannot be metabolized, and it is easy to die of dehydration.

But after having fresh water, all this is no longer a problem.

Our ship also carries some wheat flour, and wheat cakes are transported to the island every day.

There are also octopus-like tentacles on the hind limbs of the Mok fish monster. Noah and I discussed and took out some of them and transported them to the island. Although the meat of this primary sea beast cannot improve physical fitness after eating, it is much better than ordinary food in terms of restoring physical strength and energy. I did not transport all of these meats back to Xinliu Valley, but sealed some of them with ice and left them on the ship.

At this time, I took them out to supply the wounded soldiers on the island, hoping that their bodies can recover as soon as possible.

And I spent every day in a busy life. I didn’t expect that Countess Evan was actually a woman who was roughly proficient in medical skills. She has been responsible for treating injuries on the island. My joining not only brought the water magic "hydrotherapy" to the wounded camp, but also brought a batch of hemostatic bandages, which made a huge turn for the treatment work in the wounded camp. Many injuries that were hovering on the line of life and death were pulled back by me from the door of death. Countess Evan finally had a smile on her face.

Noah and I gradually began to be loved by these islanders. These islanders were all Duke Evan's men. Those strong men were his warriors, and some were the families of these warriors. Our joining gave the island a new vitality.

But I found that the Countess of Evan, who was respected by the islanders, was not very willing to pay attention to Noah. Whenever Noah was there, she would avoid him. I guess this Countess was probably a person with a story.

I stayed on the island for two days and finally figured out some things.

The first thing is why the houses here are all built on coconut trees. Those tree houses are trembling on the coconut trees. There is a soft ladder under each wooden house. Although it is a little inconvenient to go up and down, all the wooden houses here look the same. The wooden houses sway in the sea breeze and in the air with the coconut trees.

It turns out that this is because this is an island. When the tide is high, it will be completely submerged by the sea.

This island was originally formed by the accumulation of silt from coral reefs, but for some reason a coconut grove grew on this coral reef. These coconut groves have been growing in the sea. The island is flat, but only one or two meters above the sea level on average. When the tide is high, the sea water can just submerge the entire island, and only a coconut grove is exposed on the sea surface.

All the wooden houses are built very cleverly. When the tide is high, the sea water just reaches the bottom of the wooden house. When you sit at the door of the house with your legs hanging outside, you can just stretch into the sea water, just like a house floating on the sea.

As for the coconut shells hanging under the coconut trees, they are actually to collect some rainwater when it rains. Fresh water is extremely scarce on this island, and bitter rainwater is also a precious resource for the islanders. It’s too late to prepare to collect it when it rains. It’s better to make some preparations early, so some coconut shells are hung on the coconut trees with ropes.

However, the big pot boiling salt on the beach is not boiling salt, but a seawater distiller with extremely poor efficiency. It relies on boiling seawater, and the water vapor passes through a thin iron tube. After the water vapor slowly cools in the tube, some small water droplets condense and slowly gather and flow out from the tube wall.

I have tasted the fresh water distilled by this native method, which can only be said to be seawater with a lighter salty taste. If you want to get pure distilled water, further distillation is required.

In short, there is no fixed land coral reef island, and there are not enough resources to feed the people in the fleet of Earl Evan, so this is just a temporary shelter. Earl Evan's original plan was to quietly wait for Marquis Boris's fleet to slowly evacuate Conason Island. After all, he needs to call on some military forces to conquer the lords on other islands.

At that time, Earl Evan will take his soldiers and take a ship to retake Conason Island.

But this plan has now been shelved, as the intelligence brought back by the scouts who went out to sea was that Marquis Boris had sent a new fleet into Conarson Island.

On the morning of the third day, Earl Evan sent someone to find Noah and me to discuss matters on his ship. Noah and I knew that Earl Evan had made a new decision.

The small boat was beside the ship. Noah and I climbed up the ladder to the big ship, and then, under the guidance of the sailor, came to Earl Evan's meeting room, which was already crowded with people. These officers were probably the captains and first mates of the seven ships that Earl Evan had docked in the deep water area next to the island. They were arguing in the meeting room, and it seemed that there was still a lot of controversy among them about some things.

Earl Evan frowned and stood in front of a huge sea chart. His eyes were full of some fine red bloodshot, but his hair was still meticulously combed behind his head. The whole person was like a crusader sword, and all the sharpness was hidden in the scabbard.

Seeing Noah push the door and walk in, the conference room became a little quieter. Earl Evan invited Noah to come to his side. Without any polite words, he directly told Noah his battle plan. Our three sailboats were also part of Earl Evan's battle plan. I have to say that this was a very bold plan that put Noah and me in danger.

However, I couldn't find any reason to refute it.

This was a great migration at sea. Earl Evan finally gave up the idea of ​​regaining Conason Island in the short term and decided to take the fleet to sail to more remote waters and look for islands with living conditions. The island must have abundant fresh water, lush vegetation, and no ferocious beasts peeping at the side. However, such a Feng Shui treasure land, at least on Evan's sea chart, can no longer be found. If you want to find such an island, you must sail to the area outside Earl Evan's sea chart to try your luck.

This is not the Age of Exploration when Duke Mensa led his army to colonize the Vashqi plane. Those habitable islands have long been clearly marked on the nautical charts, and there are lords on each island. I just don't know where Marquis Boris's next target will be.

If we want to carry out a large-scale migration at sea, this battle plan must be successful. Otherwise, once our fleet is targeted by Marquis Boris's fleet, it will be difficult for us ordinary five-masted sailing ships to get rid of those Galleon-class sailing ships on the sea.

After Earl Evan finished his battle plan, his eyes fell on Noah. The captains around him all quieted down. For a while, the conference hall became silent. The focus of sight fell on Noah. He scratched his head a little unnaturally, then turned to look at me and asked me, "What do you say, Jijia?"

I know Noah has made up his mind at this moment. His relaxed expression means that he basically agrees with Earl Evan's plan.

"What's there to say, do it!" I said to Noah, and clenched my fist and bumped with Noah.

Noah said to Earl Evan: "We will complete the established plan."

At this time, the atmosphere in the conference room became relaxed, and the captains gathered around Earl Evan and started a new round of discussion.

Noah and I stood next to the sea chart and listened carefully to Earl Evan's description of the situation in the waters around Conason Island, which places can only be approached at high tide, and which places are still very good routes even at low tide.

Then we carefully studied the Conason Island City. Earl Evan has worked hard in this city for more than 20 years and knows every plant and tree in this island city. Noah and I memorized every word that Earl Evan said, and even the supplements of the captains beside us were kept in mind.

After walking out of Earl Evan's meeting room, Noah stepped onto the boat and asked me, "Giga, how confident do you think we are in Earl Evan's plan?"

I smiled faintly and said to him, "Don't worry, no matter what is in the way, we will clear it up, right?"

"Of course, just..."

At night, Ying Li and I stood on the deck of the Slave Trader, watching the Belan in front sail into the darkness, followed by the Shirley, and the Slave Trader still fell at the back.

Sailing at night, in a sea full of coral reefs, our ship did not dare to raise the sail. The sailors on the ship ran to the oar room and lifted the giant wooden oars more than 20 meters long into the sea. The sailors shouted and pushed the huge oars together, and the big ship slowly sailed out of the coral reef island.

…

Conason Island cannot be considered an island city in the true sense. It is a large island with an area of ​​several square kilometers. There is a small crater on the island, but the entire island is completely covered with dense vegetation. Only the highest part of the crater is covered with a large amount of volcanic rocks, which is not suitable for plant growth, so some parts of the rocks are still exposed.

And Conason Island City is just like next to a sea cliff. From a distance, it looks like a castle on a cliff. When you get closer, you will find that it is not a castle on a sea cliff at all, but a huge city surrounding a sea cliff. On the sea cliff, there is an extremely gorgeous lighthouse.

The lighthouse is connected to some houses on the sea cliff. From a distance, it looks like a city on a cliff.

There is a huge forest outside the city of Conason Island. The vegetation in this forest is very lush, and the plant species are many times more than that of the coral reef island. There are also some small animals such as hares and moles in the jungle on the island. It is a paradise for some birds. As long as there is a slight movement in the forest, the seabirds living in the forest will fly up in groups.

There are two giant galleon-class sailing ships anchored at the port of Conason Island, in addition to seven five-masted sailing ships. It seems that these warships are the last force guarding Conason Island. If the plan goes well, the main fleet here should leave the harbor at 10:00 noon. They are looking for clues deliberately left by Earl Evan's fleet and chasing into the sea.

As for the number of warships left on Conason Island, it is less than one-fifth of the entire fleet. It is entirely because the rebel scouts found that Earl Evan dispatched all the sailing ships to sail south. Since they are out in full force, the rebels stationed on Conason Island will naturally not deliberately leave their strength on the island.

Because after we entered the waters near Conason Island, we hid in the waters of Coral Reef Island. All along, these rebels did not know any information about the three slave ships of Noah and me, so when our ship approached Conason Island silently at night, the rebels were still in the dark and knew nothing about us.

…

Taking advantage of the night, Noah and I took the sailors from the three ships and landed quietly from an unguarded shoal with the skill of "walking on water". There were many reefs here, and some hidden places could be found casually.

This time, Noah and I brought 300 sailors from the ship, and only dozens of sailors were left on the ship to guard the ship. Yingli took Helena, Becky, Jacques, and Joan to stay on the ship. They had to cheer up and watch the three ships for us to prevent the sailors on the ship from mutinying and driving the three ships away secretly while we were away.

And Noah and I sneaked ashore with the minotaur Luka, Kalancuo, Catalina, Miss Cherry, Knight Lant and his construct knights, as well as Captain Just who was responsible for leading the way, and a dozen subordinates, and some wanted slave traders.

Probably, these 300 slave traders never thought that there would be such a day when they would risk their lives to sneak into the island for what some people consider justice, and land on Conason Island to rescue the families of the soldiers in Earl Evan's fleet.

When these slave traders stood on the side of justice and looked at the rebels stationed at the port docks, these desperate men actually had the urge to fight them.

The first mate on the slave trader was lying behind a sea rock beside me. He seemed a little excited, holding a sharp red-bladed scimitar in his hand, grinning at Karancuo beside me, with some flattering meaning in his eyes, and said: "Boss, if you ask me, what city should we attack? You must not know how high the wall of Conason City is. If you ask me, we might as well go directly to the dock and rob their ship. I haven't driven such a big Galen yet!"

The sailors on the side echoed one after another.

Kalancuo's sharp eyes swept over, and suddenly, the noisy voices quieted down, and only the sound of the waves could be heard around...
