The Witcher: Son of the Planes

Chapter 33 Clever Pugna

One month ago——Port of Siena

"Master, the supplies are so sufficient this time, I believe Lord Richie will be satisfied." Bob said.

This time, in order to fulfill Lord Richie's request, Barto specially rented four ships and came to the Azure Empire to buy food and other supplies.

Although the Azure Empire is an island country, its area is half that of the mainland, and is about the same as the area of ​​the Huiyao Empire and the Haoyue Empire, but it is composed of a large island and many subordinate island countries.

The closest to Oakland Port is the northernmost port of the Principality of Tremond, a vassal state of the Azure Empire, the Port of Siena.

The Port of Siena is also the largest port in the Victoria's Secret World. Thanks to the developed shipbuilding industry of the Azure Empire, this is the center of the southern part of the Victoria's Secret World. There are no less than a thousand ships of all sizes within sight, and all kinds of supplies and scarce items are available. Barto and his team bought supplies in the Port of Siena.

"Yes, the principality is still at war. This batch of food will definitely help solve the urgent problem. Lord Richie and even Lord Justin will look up to me, Barto." Barto said happily.

Barto and his companions had just left Siena Port, and they recalled their time in Siena Port from time to time on the ship.

The days of purchasing supplies were also the most comfortable days. There was no need to worry about pirates here, as there was a powerful imperial navy; there was no need to worry about not being able to buy anything here, as there was the largest exchange in the southern part of the world and a wide variety of shops. As long as you had money, there was nothing you couldn't buy. Even the so-called noble ladies could have it here, provided that you had money.

This place was open, free, and inclusive. Any speech could be made, as long as there was no actual attack on the empire. There were also the most types of professionals here, with various large and small organizations spread across the large and small islands of the Azure Empire. Even the necromancers that the two major empires in the north of the world hated could be seen everywhere on the streets. As long as they did not violate the laws of the empire, they would not be wanted if they released necromancy on the street.

The largest magic organization in the Azure Empire is the Hand of the Mage, with its headquarters in the capital of the Empire, Gotford City.

The last forest tour left a deep impression on Helen. The feeling of walking in the forest was very novel. The air was filled with the smell of nature, and various green plants and wild flowers grew between the big trees. The frightened little animals running through and the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the leaves gave Helen a beautiful feeling. It felt that the forest was full of vitality. Finally, by the small lake (which Colin had been to) where Nora and I arrived, we touched the cold lake water and watched the little animals in the distance bow their heads to drink water. It was really a moving picture.

Helen was a little fascinated. She also found many plants in the illustrated book in the forest, which further enriched her cognition.

Baron Richard saw that his daughter was happy these days, and he did not stop Helen's behavior. He just added more people to protect her in secret.

"Miss, let's go back. It's getting late. Otherwise, the Baron and his wife will be worried." Nora urged.

"Okay." Helen left reluctantly.

"We'll come again tomorrow."

...

Colin has been feeling comfortable recently. He feels that everything he does is going smoothly. Since joining the scout team, he has learned a lot of hunting knowledge and reconnaissance skills. He is already a qualified scout.

His strength is also slowly improving. Since he met the mountain cat by the lake in the forest a few months ago, he has always wanted to fight with it, but he doesn't know whether it is the credit of other teammates or the "sweep" of Lord Alex. Except for the deep forest, there are basically not many powerful beasts, let alone magic beasts.

There are many slaves in the Emerald Territory, but not everyone can join the army. He knows that he just benefited from the lack of people here in the early stage.

The scale of the timber industry in the Emerald Territory is getting bigger and bigger. Many of the new slaves have been arranged to work in the nearby timber processing plants.

The scale of Giant Wood Village has exceeded that of Sand River Village, and the personnel composition of the two villages is also different. Most of the slaves engaged in wood processing and some free people mainly live in Giant Wood Village; farmers, fishermen, and some slave soldiers mainly live in Sand River Village.

The outer wall of Emerald Castle has been further expanded and extended, and the baron has the idea of ​​building a market town around the castle.

Seeing the thriving scene of Emerald Territory, Colin deeply felt the power of human beings to transform nature and the insignificance of individuals in the other world.

"Master, we are about to reach Emerald Territory. Do we need to stop for a few days?" Bob asked.

Emerald Territory is not on the direct connection line between Oakland Port and Siena Port. It is slightly off-angle and about a day's boat ride away.

Because it is not far from the route and it is not too delayed, Barto thought about it and said, "Well, yes, in addition to food and other supplies, we have also purchased some scarce goods. I believe that the baron is still a little interested."

"However, we can't delay too long and miss the business," Barto continued.

Red Shark.

Pugna felt that some people were coming on board. He quietly opened the door and saw Jesse and his group from afar.

“Damn, these dogs have really good noses. They can find this.” Pugna cursed in his heart.

Now is not the time to complain about these things. He has to find a way to leave here. Although the captain’s room may not be searched, he casts a suggestion spell on Francis every day, and Jesse and his group may find out.

After living in the captain's room for so many days, Pugna carefully observed this place for the first time. The captain's room is located one floor below the deck. There is no other supplies on the ship except fresh water and food, and the draft is not deep. Pugna looked out the window and found that the window was above the water level.

It is not difficult to break the window, and it is not difficult to hold your breath for a while under the water. The difficult part is how to jump into the sea without breaking the window.

Thinking of the teleportation stone that has been fully charged, Pugna has an idea.

The Red Shark is currently at a stop, and its position is relatively fixed. Pugna directly recorded the position of the captain's room.

He knocked Rose unconscious and left Rose in the captain's room. He slowly walked out of the captain's room and slipped towards the small boat tied to the side of the guardrail.

...

The attention of everyone on the ship is mainly focused on the cargo hold at the bottom.

Commander Hedram Burgess looked at the sailors on the ship and instinctively felt that they were not good people. They had the same smell as Jack he had met before, but his men did not find any direct evidence. Francis, who was following him, was talking a lot of nonsense. Hedram did not respond and endured it.

After Jesse led the team to board the ship, they found that it was an ordinary sea ship. Although it was not small in size, it did not have the obvious smell of necromancy.

Jesse felt a little bored and was ready to turn back to the fleet ship. But when he saw the captain talking to Hedram not far away, he felt something was wrong and there was a slight fluctuation of magic.

Jesse turned around and went back, walked towards Hedram and the others, and when he got closer, he did find the fluctuation of magic.

"Do you have a magician on your ship?" Jesse asked.

"To reply to the master wizard, we are just a merchant ship with only some ordinary sailors on board. How could the honorable master wizard board our ship?" Francis said humbly.

Such a large number of professionals boarding the ship put a lot of pressure on Francis. "If I find out that I am a pirate, will I be caught and taken back to Oakland Port?" Francis thought worriedly.

"Are there any strangers on your ship?" Jesse asked.

"No, Master, the sailors on the ship are all old people who have been with me for a long time. There are no strangers on the ship."

"No, sir, nothing was found." Jesse's men reported.

Ignoring his men's report, Jesse asked, "Where is your room?"

Francis said, "Just opposite, the largest one, it's mine."

Jesse looked at the room in the distance, and the door seemed to be open. He walked over first.
