Weird Wizarding World

Denglan Shipyard.

In a wide building built with a steel frame, a mustachioed salesman wearing a black vest was taking Colin slowly to visit.

“...Our Denglan Shipyard is the largest shipyard on the entire Bananca Island!

The giant ship Seagull, which was successfully launched not long ago, is a birthday present made by our Denglan Shipyard for the 500th birthday of Wizard Bananka! "

Colin listened and nodded slightly in response.

It was already the second day after he arrived at Bananca Island.

On the recommendation of the middle-aged guide hired to land on the island yesterday, he came to the largest Denglan shipyard on the island to learn about the steamship market.

"The Seagull is 128 meters long and 32 meters wide. It is a well-deserved giant ship of 10,000 tons."

The mustache salesman continued to introduce him enthusiastically.

"We are the only ones on Bananca Island who have the technology to build this kind of giant ship."

Colin's lips moved, and he wanted to ask the price, but he resisted the urge in the next second and swallowed the price inquiry.

Then he turned to ask: "Is there a ship that is reliable, durable, easy to operate, and it doesn't matter if the space is small."

"It's best if two or three people can operate it." He emphasized again.

In a previous life, a world without extraordinary power, generally speaking, the bigger the ships used for ocean voyages, the better.

The wind and wave resistance capabilities of large ships and the material loading capacity are not comparable to that of small ships.

The larger it is, the better it can withstand possible dangers at sea and improve the safety of ocean navigation.

But in this world, the existence of witchcraft makes the size of the ship less important when sailing on the ocean.

The ability to withstand wind and waves, as well as the loading of materials, do not necessarily require large ships. There are other solutions.

"Of course, sir." The salesperson replied without hesitation after hearing his request.

"Ships like this are the best-selling ship type in our shipyard after giant ships!"

Having said this, the mustached salesman paused for a moment and then said: "After all, as you know, when sailing on the sea, the more people, the better."

“A crew that is too weak will only be a liability when sailing on an ocean voyage.

And the resources required to support a powerful crew are not a small amount. "

Colin nodded in agreement.

"I wonder what your approximate budget is?" Mustache Sales asked again, and then added: "The price of the type of ship we have here ranges from 500 magic stones to 150,000 magic stones."

"Introduce them all to me." Colin replied calmly.

"Okay." The mustached salesman nodded cheerfully, and then added:

"Then I will take you to look through the introduction brochure first. When you see something suitable and there are existing ships in the dock, I will bring you over to actually experience it and check it out. Do you think that's okay?"

"Yeah." Colin nodded and replied.

The two of them walked side by side to the reception room not far away.

…

Half a day later.

Colin walked out of Dunlan Shipyard.

Thinking back on everything I saw in the past half day, I felt it was a bit eye-opening.

The addition of witchcraft made ordinary ships completely deviate from the inherent knowledge in his mind.

Take the small and medium-sized ships he looked at with a total length of ten to twenty-five meters.

Some of the high-end models can not only sail on the sea, but also underwater and even in the sky!

Of course, the price is not something he can afford, it can easily cost 100,000 magic stones.

It was these ships that opened his mind. Thinking about going to Siya continent, maybe there is no need to sail...

Air may be a better option.

After all, he chose to buy a ship himself instead of taking someone else's ship. He wanted to have a way out at any time on the vast sea.

But soon, he gave up such an idea under the introduction of Denlan Shipyard Sales.

There are many reasons.

But together they can be summed up in two words——

No money.

Thinking of this, Colin couldn't help but have a wry smile on his face.

‘The golden four-leaf clover must be sold as soon as possible. ’

In this short time, he selected three favorite ships.

Hmm...or a favorite ship and two cheaper alternatives.

The ship he loved was named Haiyan by Denlan Shipyard.

There are currently no existing ships in the shipyard, but according to the picture album——

The Haiyan is about 18 meters long, with a total of two floors, and an open-air observation tower on the top. The entire hull is made of light alloy steel specially made by Denlan Shipyard.

This alloy brings lighter weight to the Haiyan, and coupled with its streamlined appearance, its overall energy consumption reaches the lowest level among ships of its type.

At the same time, its sailing speed performance is also very impressive - the maximum sailing speed can reach 35 knots when the wind is downwind, and the normal cruising speed is about 32 knots.

Such speed.

This means that it previously took nearly half a year to reach the Asian continent by three-masted sailing ship. Now if you take the Haiyan, it only takes less than a month to arrive!

In addition, the Petrel has also integrated a large-scale witchcraft device called the Heart of the Siren, giving it the ability to self-pilot, resist wind and waves, prevent rollover, conduct reconnaissance, and hide itself to a certain extent.

In this way, with the help of the Siren's Heart, the Petrel can be controlled by just one person.

As for the shortcomings.

Maybe it's the price.

Colin sighed and walked aimlessly.

In the ship brochure, the price for printing the Haiyan was sixteen thousand magic stones.

Mustache sales gave a discounted price of fourteen thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.

No matter which one of these two it is, for him, it is a sky-high price.

As for the other two cheaper ships, their hulls are either made of ordinary steel, or they do not have the Heart of the Siren and require more crew members to control them.

Although it wasn't too bad, if he had the choice, he would still want to buy the Haiyan.

After all, for a journey of tens of thousands of nautical miles, the better the ship, the safer it is.

What's more, after arriving in Siya Continent, he can sell the Haiyan and turn it into his own resources again.

Thinking like this, before he knew it, he had reached the vicinity of Lanbei Street.

As the middle-aged apprentice wizard said.

Lanbei Street is the most prosperous commercial street on the entire Bananka Island.

There are bookstores, witchcraft shops, witchcraft crystal shops, and all kinds of shops.

Of course, auction houses are also indispensable.

Walking along the alley, Colin walked towards the auction he had chosen long ago as planned.

After knowing the market price of the ship, the next natural step is to sell the McIntosh Golden Four-leaf Clover.

If the McIntosh golden four-leaf clover is worth a lot of money...

At this time.

Ta-ta-ta--

In front of the narrow black brick alley, a tall bald figure slowly walked out.

In the alleyway, Colin, who was walking quickly, frowned slightly and gradually stopped.

He looked back behind him.

As expected, a figure also appeared behind him. Wearing a gray vest, a large witchcraft tattoo was visible on his bare chest.

It looked like a ray.

It's just that the fangs are ferocious and the shape is terrifying, which is a little different from the ordinary rays we see in daily life.

These two wizards should be what the middle-aged guide mentioned yesterday - sea dogs.

A common name for wizards in the Bananca Island gang-style school.

"Don't be nervous, friend." The bald man in front of him spread his hands and smiled.

"We don't have any ill intentions, but the school's business has been slow recently, so we would like to ask your Excellency to take care of it..."

Uh-huh!

Before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed and he stepped back slightly.

Dang!

A metal cone bullet embedded itself in the stone slab at his feet in front of him, creating a deep crater filled with cracks.
