My Magic Age
Chapter 980 81. There was once a sea
On the dead volcano island, we can still enjoy the unique life on the island while avoiding the pursuit of the faceless warriors.
In the dense forests on the dead volcano island, there are all kinds of towering trees, vines, parasitic plants, and low shrubs. They are like a natural three-dimensional barrier to block the faceless warriors for us. It seems that no one has ever set foot on this island before.
I have been dealing with hundreds of faceless warriors on the island for three days with the sailors. The sailors have gradually calmed down from the panic at the beginning. They even began to make large traps in the dense forests to try to hunt the faceless warriors who rashly broke into the forests. After these faceless warriors left the sea, not only did their combat power weaken, but they were also very uncomfortable with this unfamiliar dense forest.
After leaving the sea and entering the jungle, the faceless warriors secrete a thick layer of mucus on their skin in order to keep their bodies hydrated. When crossing the jungle, their bodies keep rubbing against branches, and the mucus is inevitably rubbed off by the branches. Therefore, it is a common phenomenon that the faceless warriors are too weak due to dehydration in the jungle.
The sailors' favorite thing to do is to use the cover of the dense forest to find those faceless warriors who are alone and in a weak state. These faceless warriors become extremely sensitive and fragile, and even a little spark can make their skin dry and cracked.
Sometimes, these faceless warriors fall into traps, and the sailors light the branches soaked in oil that have been prepared long ago. Although those branches are still full of tender leaves, they will burn quickly when they encounter open flames.
However, there is a disadvantage of such traps. The location here will be exposed quickly. The sailors must plan the retreat route in advance, and other faceless warriors will quickly find this place along the rising smoke.
Another point is to control the fire and not let it spread. After all, we still have to rely on the dense forests here to deal with the faceless warriors. If a fire ignites the forest, we will have nowhere to hide.
A small ridge on the west side of the dead volcano island was opened up by the faceless warriors to form crisscross passages. The fallen trees lay in the passages in all directions, and our living area has shrunk a little.
And I found that in these three days, faceless warriors continued to gather on this dead volcano island every day, and they did not seem to give up looking for us.
Now the inland sea of the dead volcano island has almost become a gathering place for faceless warriors, with at least more than 2,000 faceless warriors gathered here.
The three days of jungle life made me realize that there are some daring people among these sailors. They are obsessed with jungle hunting. Hunting those faceless warriors who are many times stronger than them will give them unprecedented satisfaction on the spiritual level. They don’t care how close they are to death, and they have an almost blind worship of Kalancuo. Even if Kalancuo stands on the edge of the cliff and kicks them down, they will only scream with excitement.
So every day we will take some counter-reconnaissance measures against those faceless warriors who are looking for us in the dense forest, and we will hunt them in turn. The search teams formed by those faceless warriors at the beginning were only ten warriors per team, but as the faceless teams entered the dense forest, they sometimes disappeared silently. The faceless warriors began to be alert. They increased the number of search teams to twenty warriors, and the inexplicable disappearance of the search teams was curbed.
On the third day, these faceless warriors took advantage of their numbers and began to destroy the dense forest of the dead volcano island on a large scale. They spent a huge amount of manpower to open up green channels in this mountain forest, dividing this mountain forest into diamond-shaped woods, and they continued to squeeze our living space.
Only under the cover of night can we have a moment of rest.
We hid in a dense forest. The sailors dragged their tired bodies, hurriedly ate two mouthfuls of dry food, and fell asleep against a big tree.
These sailors are good at sailing and fighting at sea, but they are not good at jungle guerrilla warfare.
After the previous fresh period, their bodies have begun to overdraw gradually. They need full rest, but what we lack is full rest time.
Catalina and Deborah are responsible for vigilance. They both have a natural insight into danger.
...
In this dense forest, there is no wind around, and the air is filled with a smell of dampness and corruption.
A flying gadfly flew past me and landed on my arm. When its sharp mouthparts tried to pierce my skin, it suddenly hit the iron plate. My fingertips exuded a force of ice and snow, which instantly turned the gadfly into an exquisite ice sculpture. The moment it flapped its wings and was about to fly, I sealed it in the ice.
I don't know why, it seems that no poisonous insects, snakes or ants are willing to approach Ying Li. I guess it's probably because her blood contains something that low-end creatures like spirits fear.
In order to facilitate walking in the dense forest, she wore a set of thorn-tailed crystal lion leather armor. At this time, I knew the reason why Helena's leather armor was always so clean and tidy without any damage at any time and place. The reason is: she carries more than one set of thorn-tailed crystal lion leather armor in her magic waist bag.
This level of jungle training seems to give Helena and Becky some new insights every day, and Kalancuo and Catalina share their insights with the two girls without reservation.
I originally thought that Catalina and Helena were more similar in personality, while Becky and Kalancuo had similar fighting styles. But in fact, Becky asked Catalina for more advice on fighting methods, while Helena liked to ask Kalancuo for sword skills. Although it was a bit confusing for me, it did not hinder the growth of Helena and Becky.
"At this time, the Royal Magic Academy should probably start school." I sat under a coconut tree and said to Ying Li beside me.
Ying Li turned her head, and her starry eyes were like two brightest stars in the dark night. Although I didn't see her face, I could feel her smile. She answered softly: "Well, the Imperial Capital Junior Magic School should probably prepare for a dance after the coming-of-age ceremony. Speaking of which, the Royal Magic School should also have such a dance!"
The voice was like the whisper of the wind talker, and the voice was very soft.
Thinking that if Ying Li was not trapped in the Vashj plane, he would also prepare to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony after school started, I suddenly had a strange idea in my mind: "Oh, by the way, I really want to know, if you were in the Imperial Capital, would you participate in this coming-of-age ceremony?"
She widened her eyes and looked at me in confusion, as if she didn't understand the meaning of my words.
She said: "Of course, not only me, but also Becky and Helena, we will participate together! This is the only coming-of-age ceremony in the life of the Imperial Capital people. Why do you think I may not participate?"
"I'm just curious!" I laughed and said.
Seeing that she was still looking at me, I continued, "Just imagine, at the coming-of-age ceremony, your sister gave you a blessing and a gift, and this sister had participated in the coming-of-age ceremony three years ago. Wouldn't it be strange?"
After hearing what I said, Ying Li's tense face was like a blooming nightshade.
When she smiled, two intoxicating dimples appeared on her face. Although her face was not absolutely beautiful, her delicate features revealed the unique temperament that only the royal family possessed. Every frown and smile revealed the dignified and elegant lady's demeanor.
Ying Li frowned and murmured to me, "Hey, are you saying that you dislike my age?"
"...No, no, no, of course not, how could that be!" I waved my hands to explain.
Then I asked her, "Oh, by the way, will your royal family prepare any special recognition ceremony? Or will we go to the temple together to receive the blessing of the goddess like us?"
Ying Li didn't seem to know much about this. She wanted to ask Becky and Helena for their opinions, but found that they were not around. She only said, "Generally, members of the royal family will probably accept the 'blessing of the Statue of Liberty' together!"
Maybe it was because we talked about life in the imperial capital that Ying Li was a little depressed. She lowered her eyes and said to me quietly, "Ji Jia, I miss home a little. I think Manda may have regretted it. She couldn't find me for so long. She should miss me too!"
"Well, okay! Although I can't take you back to the imperial capital right away, I promise you that I will take you back as soon as possible." I vowed to Ying Li.
When I said this, I was thinking about the drawings of the teleportation magic array that Senior Dylan showed me. Those drawings... were actually designed based on a sea ship. Although it makes sense in theory, we are facing many practical problems. The first point is: neither the 'Shirley' nor the 'Slave Trader' is suitable for transformation into a sailing ship with teleportation function.
Because such a sailing ship needs to have a high-strength structure when crossing the space rift, which is not something a wooden frame sailing ship can afford. In addition, we also need to coat the surface with a layer of magic metal to prevent it from being swallowed by the space rift. Even if we want to cover a 100-meter-long sailing ship with a layer of rune metal plates coated with magic metal, maybe just collecting these rune metal plates will make us run all over Vashj.
"Haha, I'm kidding." Ying Li smiled and said to me, "Actually, this place is not bad. It's a bit like the outer sea of Haiyinsi. All my childhood memories are in Haiyinsi, which is called a water city by people. I'll take you there if I have a chance. It's a beautiful city."
Speaking of Haiyinsi, it reminds me of Uncle Fred, Sister Singer, and Kong Zhen. I don't know how they are doing in Haiyinsi, and whether Uncle Fred has handled his housework.
My thoughts flew with the wind at night, and I suddenly thought of the city in the sea of trees - Qiyan City.
I held Ying Li's hand and said to her, "Of course I have to go. I will not only go to Haiyinsi, but also to Qiyan City."
...
Looking up at the starry sky of the sea abyss, it seems that every star has woken up from its slumber, and they are crowded together and keep flashing silver starlight.
In the distance came the sound of waves hitting the rocks. It was quiet all around. A coconut crab as big as a football fell from a coconut tree. It looked like a spider that had been magnified countless times. Apart from the two huge claws, it had almost nothing to do with crabs.
Along with it rolled a round coconut. The round coconut fell to my feet. I reached out and picked up the green coconut.
The coconut crab that fell to the ground saw me snatching the food that was about to be eaten, and opened its claws to crawl towards me. Its body seemed very bulky, but its speed was extremely fast. I looked at it in surprise, and I couldn't understand what gave it such courage.
"Be careful!"
Justus came over from the side, his cheeks were covered with green scales, and a tooth-white bone spur extended from his wrist, nailing the coconut crab in the soil.
At the same time, the coconut crab's claws just touched the coconut in my hand, and the huge crab claws made a "click" sound, clamping the coconut shell in half.
I looked at the coconut crab struggling to death under Justus's bone spurs with a pale face, and the coconut that was clamped in half, and then looked at my fingers, and looked at the coconut crab with lingering fear that was pierced by the bone spurs but still waving its claws, and looked at Justus gratefully.
"Thank you."
The milky white juice flowed all over the ground. Justus used a straw rope to tie up the coconut crab tightly. Then the green scales on his face slowly faded, and the fins with bone spurs growing on his wrists also retracted into his body little by little. He held the tied coconut crab and shook it in front of me, smiling and saying: "The coconut crabs here are very aggressive. Some seabirds and small beasts are not its opponents. Its crab claws can easily break the coconut shell, and of course it can also pinch your fingers off."
Justus then said to me: "But it is also a rare delicacy. We can cook it and eat it now!"
Perhaps because of the stimulation of the 'Dark Body' potion, Justus's body strength has grown rapidly recently, and it is precisely because of these powers that he can fight against the drug addiction in his body.
At this time, Kalancuo jumped down from the tree, squatted beside me and whispered to me: "Found it, there is a cave that can be lived in after crossing three peaks from here, it looks pretty good!"
My eyes lit up, then I looked up at the sky, pondered for a moment, and said to Kalancuo: "Take a rest for a while, I will take everyone out in three quarters of an hour, we... hide in the cave and rest."
"Okay!" Kalancuo nodded, and a simple word burst out of his mouth.
These few days, I have been thinking about what reason to bring these sailors into Xinliu Valley, but I don't want them to know the secrets of Xinliu Valley, so I asked Kalancuo to look for caves to live in on the dead volcano island. I took the sailors to hide in the cave, and then used "hypnosis" to make them sleep, and then took them into the underground cave of Xinliu Valley. They need to recuperate for a while.
This dead volcano island is my battlefield. I plan to summon the orc warriors and barbarian slaves in Xinliu Valley to hunt down the faceless warriors gathered in the inner sea.
If the faceless warriors hide in the sea, it may be difficult to hunt them because the barbarian slaves are afraid of water. However, they landed and searched the mountain on such a large scale. What do the faceless warriors have to fear after leaving the sea?
