The Lord of Ashes

Standing on the deck, under the black hood, Thain's cheeks were a little pale.

Not long ago, their little alchemy-powered ship passed head-on through the eye of a giant ocean storm.

The power of the sea in the wizarding world explains to Thane what greatness and terror are.

If not for having the right navigation line and absolutely sharp reflexes.

Thain guessed that he wanted to break through such a terrifying storm from the front.

There is no third level, or even demigod level strength, there is no need to think about it!

The power of the storm is powerful enough to twist a bundle of steel with a diameter of more than a hundred meters into twists.

There are also many dangers below the sea level. Many visible and invisible whirlpool sea eyes are enough to drag any land creature into the abyss of the ocean.

This trip to the south coast was the first time that Thain experienced the real sea.

If the molten sea in the poisonous green flame world is like a docile lamb, then the endless south sea in the wizarding world is like a sleeping dragon.

What is even more exaggerated is that this giant dragon actually has no ill intentions towards you. Just a short nap is enough to determine the demise of hundreds of millions of living beings.

With the thickness and carrying capacity of the wizarding world, billions of living beings are nothing. After all, it is just a land of green resources, with dozens of human kingdoms and a total population of more than 10 billion.

This is just the power territory of a relatively weak holy tower...

"This kind of fish is quite interesting." Although the paleness on his face has not completely recovered, Thain still squatted on the deck with interest, looking at some thumb-sized whitebait that came out of the ocean.

The storm area we just passed through is enough to smash any large creature into pieces, but this slender silverbait the size of a thumb can swim through it safely.

I have to say the wonder of nature and the magic of biological evolution.

A translucent test tube was taken out from Thain's arms, and he collected several whitebait that were still alive.

When you look at these silverfish in the sun, you can even see a straight blood line under their light silver scales.

"This is a silver dragon fish. It is said that they have a certain amount of dragon blood factor in their bodies."

"The longest one I have ever seen is a palm-sized silver dragon fish. They only live in places where storms gather."

"I heard that a second-level magician once collected a large number of silver dragon fish in an attempt to extract enough dragon blood from them."

"I don't know if this is true or not." Popeye Cook said as he walked not far from Thain.

At this time, Cook had taken off his white coat, revealing his strong and solid muscles.

When passing through the eye of the storm just now, the first-level knight in front of him jumped to the top of the alchemy ship, used his flesh and blood and strength to forcefully reverse the direction of the sail, and cooperated with the ship's alchemy power, and then successfully sailed away from the danger zone.

Traces of blood washed and agitated by the power of the storm appeared on Cook's strong chest. From this, it can be seen that Cook and the old man with the goatee were indeed earning a lot of hard money while making a living in the endless South China Sea.

As a registered magician of the Blue Origin Holy Tower, Thane pretended to be a black magician for a short period of time, but after so many years, Thain has long been unable to compare with ordinary black magicians.

From the performance of some details, it can be seen that Thain is not that kind of vicious existence.

At least when he was passing through the eye of the storm just now, first-level knight Cook was tumbling between the masts. He accidentally glanced and saw Thain using a magic shield to protect the constructor Yuli, who was paler and weaker.

If he were a real black magician, who would care about the life and death of his slave creatures!

Of course, it's not that Thain cares about Yuli's situation in particular. He just doesn't want the soul slave he finally managed to die because of such an accident before he has even used it once.

Cook's initiative to strike up a conversation can also be seen as a sign of goodwill.

At this time, there were five first-level knights and magicians on the ship.

In addition to Cook, the old man with the goatee and Thain, the other two were also passengers, but they had been staying in their rooms and did not appear on the deck like Thain.

Cook is a talkative guy. Since Thane is not a cold and ruthless black magician, Cook doesn't mind chatting with him.

Glancing at Cook, Thain pondered for a moment and said, "It should be true. There is indeed a thin dragon blood factor in this silver dragon fish."

"Oh? Master, how did you know?" Cook's eyes lit up and he couldn't help asking.

With a sneer on his lips, Thane replied: "Because I have seen real giant dragons and pure-blooded dragons."

Thain's answer and inexplicable sneer made Cook's body shiver, and he even suppressed the follow-up words he originally wanted to say.

Thain may have guessed Cook's true thoughts. His smile was more like a mockery. He said: "If you want to be like that second-level magician and hunt a large number of silver dragon fish to obtain dragon blood, then It’s a waste of time.”

"Maybe if you work for a hundred years, you may not be able to get a gallon of dragon blood."

"In comparison, if you are really interested in dragon blood, you might as well go back to the place where the storm gathers."

"Since there is a special fish like the silver dragon fish there that contains a meager amount of dragon blood factor, there is a high probability that there are other special marine creatures with a higher concentration of dragon blood."

Thain's suggestion made Cook shake his head.

What a joke. With the power of a first-level knight, Cook repeatedly ran through the storm gathering place. Cook thought he lived too long, which is why he was so bored.

The conversation between the two was not loud, but anyone who cared could still hear it.

I saw a burst of low laughter coming from the second floor of the deck, and a man wearing a brown mage robe appeared at the same time.

"Do you think this master is very knowledgeable about dragon creatures?" As soon as the brown-robed magician appeared, he looked at Thain and asked.

Thain has no interest in communicating with strangers.

He only found many related records and descriptions of dragon creatures in the Holy Tower Library and Lu Lianman's private library because of the dragon blood given by his mentor Lu Lianman.

And in this environment, Thane had no interest in communicating academically with magicians he didn't know.

Thain's indifferent attitude made the brown-robed magician slightly embarrassed.

But before he could say anything else, a roar came from Cook next to him.

"How dare you block your grandfather's way from the sea tribe!"

Following Cook's roar, several thick water columns rose from the surrounding sea level, faintly surrounding the alchemy ship, which was less than two hundred meters in length.

A special metallic buzzing sound came from the cab on the top of the cabin. This should be the unique detection sound wave of this alchemy-powered ship. Cook also used this to discover the sea tribe lurking nearby.

Sure enough, during the eruption of the water column, some special marine creatures with lizard-like heads but webbed feet and fish tails emerged from below the sea level.

The sea lizards in front of him didn't look very elite. Thain saw that the halberds held in some of the sea lizards' claws were rusty.

Rather than saying this is a group of ocean robbers, it is better to say this is a group of ocean beggars.
