Arcane Lord

The sudden arrival of Chateau in the Captain's Room of the "Distant" really shocked Captain Bill, but this was only caused by the sudden presence of one more person in the room.

　　 After seeing who came, Captain Bill sighed decisively and asked as he saluted, "My lord, what's the order for me suddenly?"

　　 Xia took a look at this cramped, messy room, then opened the hatch, and Bill said, "There is indeed something to be said. Let's talk about it on the deck!"

　　 said, he took the lead out of the hatch, came outside, and walked to the bow in a few steps.

　　 At this time, the "Yuanfang" has docked in Hubble Harbor. Some crew members are sorting cables, some are cleaning, and more are leaning on the ship's side, chatting about dinner or a stray warrior in the port.

　　 Seeing Xia Duo suddenly appear on the deck, the chatting crew members were silent one by one, and began to help others with their work.

　　 did not say anything about Xia Duo, just a group of temporarily hired crew members, it is very rare to be able to do business without making mistakes, and there is no need to care about the trivialities.

　　 As for Hubble Port, it was beyond Xia Duo's expectations. He originally thought that Hubble Port, as a transit point between the East and West Narrow Seas, should be prosperous.

　　 But in fact, this is a supply point, roughly two streets, one is by the sea, all warehouses, and the other is a little bit inside, and there are some twists and turns. They are all resting places such as hotels and pubs.

　　 is probably a shrunken version of the Sevinton port area, which looks very simple.

　　 A mage tower similar to the watch tower is located at the midpoint of the street inside. If you use that mage tower to cast spells, Chateau thinks whether it can cover the entire port area is a problem.

　　 Maybe it only needs to play the basic functions of communication and transmission is enough.

　　 "My lord—" Captain Bill came.

　　 Xia Duo turned around and looked at the old captain whose face was full of weather and frost. He did not directly arrange the next itinerary of the "Remote", but asked Captain Bill a more personal question:

　　 "Captain Bill, where is your hometown? How many people do you do?"

　　 Bill was stunned when he heard the words. He didn't know the purpose of his new employer asking this, but he answered truthfully:

"My lord, my home is in Haranling, not far south of Sevinton. There are also my wife, two sons, and their wives and children at home. They run a small leather shop together in Haranling. Life is pretty good, as for me—"

　　 When he talked about his family, Captain Bill clearly had a happy smile on his face, but when he finally mentioned himself, his face instantly dimmed——

　　 "When I was young, I was recruited by Lord Haran and joined his fleet. From the first handyman who only washed the crew's clothes in the bilge, to the current captain, this work lasted more than 30 years.

　　 "It's a pity that Lord Harlan decided to reduce the size of the fleet not long ago, and unfortunately I became the only captain to be fired. Perhaps after this mission, I will go to Harlan to run a leather shop with my two sons.

"This may be a good ending for me, but for my three grandsons who will already be called grandpas, it is almost a turning point in their destiny. One or even two of them will lose the ability to learn magic. opportunity."

　　 After listening to Bill's account, Xia Duo once again felt fortunate that he was able to get Mu Yan's help, and was even more grateful to Mu Yan.

　　 A grandfather of a captain and a leather shop can hardly provide one or two family members to learn magic. How much does he need to pay for a traverser without background?

　　 Looking back now, if you didn’t get the status of an official apprentice when you first joined the Tower of Time, you could not use those learning scrolls and free questioning opportunities to form an exchange group.

　　 Then maybe he is still struggling to pay for the reading fee of the library, the fee for the use of the spell laboratory, and the consultation fee for asking other people's questions!

　　 If there is no official apprenticeship, no one can directly take advantage of it, even if the communication group is theoretically feasible, but why do others believe him?

　　 Even if he finally gained the trust of other apprentices and created a communication group, what about the time cost in the process?

　　 You must know that there was a wave of orcs in the winter of the year he joined the Tower of Time. If you can't get the ability to cast before that, you may be exempted from being called up, but in the arcane competition that follows, you will be a step away.

　　 Even now, he can still become an official mage, it is impossible to become the lord of Great Xia, become Niya's husband, or become a senior arcanist.

　　 Or in other words, if he hadn't followed Neal to the circus outside the town, he would not have met Mu Yan. Sometimes a difference in fate may lead to a different fate.

　　 And now that Captain Bill’s real destiny is turning point, Chateau thought for a moment, and then said what he had decided long ago:

　　 "Captain Bill, you should know that I am the lord of the Great Summer of the Southern Territory. My territory is currently lacking an veteran who is familiar with Northland affairs. I think you can work for Captain Bill for a few more years!"

　　 "My lord ~www.ltnovel.com~Do you want me to continue to be the captain of the "Far Far"?" Bill had both joy and hesitation in his eyes.

　　 The captain’s income must surpass that of the leather shop, but at the same time the risk of sailing is higher than that of the leather shop. He had already decided to return to Haranling after this mission, but he did not expect such a choice now to appear.

　　 Thinking of his grandson, Bill still made the decision silently.

　　 And Xia Duo did not let him down, "Yes, I intend to let you continue to be the captain of the Yuanfang, and the Yuanfang will not need to go out to sea in the future, but will take inland waterway shipping."

　　 "Inland waterway shipping? I know that the adult's territory is in the south, but I heard that the river in the south is narrow, can this ship pass?"

　　 Being able to say such a thing means that Bill has accepted Chateau’s recruitment and is already considering Chateau. In this regard, Chateau’s answer is—

　　 "If it is placed in the past, this ship may be really inconvenient to travel in the inland river, but now I can say with certainty that this ship is fine!"

　　The reason is naturally because of the previous fishermen in Lake Mecht.

　　 When Priest Morton was clearing the murloc tide, a torrent of negative energy swept across the north and south waters, taking away not only countless murlocs, but also some river beds and banks.

　　 Under the erosion of negative energy, with Lake Mecht as the center, the north and south rivers have been expanded a lot. Although the narrowness is still not enough for the two "Yuanfang" ships to meet, one ship is completely fine.

　　 When actually meeting with other ships, the probability of being located in a narrow place is extremely low.
