Chapter 57 Departure, Orchid Islands
When he met the Scarlet Wizard, Loon was extremely ignorant about wizarding knowledge and common sense!
His understanding in this area is also exceptionally lacking.
However, through his interactions with the Scarlet Wizard, Loon learned many things that she didn't consider knowledge, but which were more important than knowledge. These things gradually helped him build his own knowledge and cognitive system.
If the interaction with the Scarlet Wizard was already like this, how much would one gain from communicating with the Orchid Wizard, who has been a wizard for over two hundred years?
Even if the Orchid Wizard is so proud of his own possessions that he is unwilling to communicate or reveal any knowledge or common sense about wizardry in his words... doesn't Loon have other bargaining chips in his hands?
Spell scroll.
Magic stone fragments, and magic stones!
Using magic stone fragments to enhance the effects of meditation... At the first-class wizard apprentice stage, Loon's own meditation was efficient enough, so he was reluctant to consume magic stone fragments.
After becoming a second-class wizard apprentice, the efficiency of meditation was extremely slow. Under this extremely slow condition, the bonus effect of the magic stone fragments was also extremely insignificant.
Therefore, of the inheritance he received from the old man, which consisted of those magic stone fragments, Loon hadn't used a single one, except for the few he initially traded with the Crimson Wizard.
Loon believed that even if the Orchid Wizard was only a third-class wizard apprentice, he should be able to exchange his magic stones and magical knowledge for a considerable amount of knowledge from the Orchid Wizard.
"It's a pity that Wizard Lescent didn't have the habit of recording his spells." Thinking about the spells, Loon couldn't help but feel regretful.
He was actually very interested in the spells of the wizard Lessont, especially the spell that had brought them out of the seawater—according to the Scarlet Wizard, the spell was called "Life Detection," which could form a huge life radiation detection field with itself as the origin, and identify all beings within the detection field whose life force and spiritual power reached a certain intensity.
Unfortunately, neither on the wizard Recent nor in Recent's lair could Loon find the spell model of this life detection spell, nor any related records.
"I wonder if the Orchid Wizard has any information about life detection techniques," Lo Ang thought.
"Moreover, the Orchid Wizard's knowledge far surpasses yours and mine. We want to find a different place to build our wizard tower, but we are not yet sure which place is suitable for us."
"Perhaps the Orchid Wizard can offer us some advice?" Loon said casually.
"When shall we depart?" The Crimson Wizard pondered for a moment before nodding.
In fact, she also had the idea of leaving this place to travel elsewhere.
After all, how can someone with power accept being trapped in one place like a prisoner for the rest of their life?
However, after becoming a wizard, the Scarlet Wizard faced many risks—in addition, she herself had not learned any offensive or defensive spells.
Even if she had the idea of going out to see the world, she would hesitate and be afraid because of her past experiences, and eventually give up the idea of going out.
Just like those farmers who have neither armor nor weapons, they can only be trapped in their own villages.
But now... the Crimson Wizard has not only learned offensive spells, but also gained a trustworthy companion like Loen.
In addition, this gave them another reason to go out.
At that moment, she naturally had no more hesitation about going out.
"Let's notify the Chamber of Commerce first."
Luo Ang planned to do both moving and leaving home at the same time.
First, we'll get a ship from the Chamber of Commerce and load everything we can take from this base onto it. We'll use the ship as a temporary base, and store the most important items in storage bags.
Then, as they walked, they talked with other wizards and searched for a place to settle down.
In this way, once a suitable place is found, things can be moved off the ship to rest and claim the land... to avoid finding a suitable place and then coming back to move things back, only to find that place has already been occupied by other wizards.
It's both a waste of time and adds unnecessary complications.
"Don't worry, you can put anything valuable directly into my storage bag," Lo Ang said, completely dispelling the Scarlet Wizard's doubts.
To be honest, there aren't many truly valuable things in the Scarlet Wizard's stronghold.
The items included only the parchment scrolls and some processed spellcasting materials. They didn't take up much space, and Loon's storage bag could easily hold them all.
As for experimental equipment... how could the Scarlet Wizard possibly transport any precious experimental equipment into such an inconvenient place?
Not long after contacting the old goblin Corin, a large ship arrived in this area of water.
It was a passenger ship named Stone Oak.
The Crimson Wizard and Loen also sorted and packed the items in the base into boxes, stuffed them into storage bags, and then boarded the ship.
"To the Orchid Islands." As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Ang suddenly realized that the person sailing the ship was none other than Te Wongtong from the White Stone Merchant Guild.
Before heading to the White Shark Islands, Loon and Teon had made an agreement.
—If Teon can provide Loon with accurate information about the three wizards, Loon is willing to take over the White Stone Merchant Guild and provide them with protection.
After encountering the Crimson Wizard, for the past six months, although Loon has not paid much attention to the people of the White Stone Merchant Guild, the White Stone Merchant Guild has been fulfilling their agreement with Loon.
The Golden Hibiscus Merchant Guild has always regarded the White Stone Merchant Guild as an equal, a guild protected by wizards, and would raise the wizard's flag on their behalf when they encountered pirates.
Therefore, the Baishi Chamber of Commerce has developed exceptionally well in the past six months.
"Respected Thunder Wizard, are you on your way to Orchid Islands to visit Orchid Wizard?"
"Would you like us to deliver this message to the Orchid Islands on your behalf?" Teonton asked respectfully.
Before him, both Loen and the Scarlet Wizard had changed out of their usual attire and into hooded wizard cloaks.
Luo Ang nodded, realizing his oversight.
He only thought about visiting the Orchid Wizard himself, without considering whether the Orchid Wizard would be willing to accept his visit.
"It is time to send an envoy to the Orchid Islands."
"Alright, now go back to the White Shark Islands and go to the Orchid Islands with the people from the Golden Hibiscus Merchant Guild. Inform the Orchid Wizard that we are going to visit, and then tell us the Orchid Wizard's response."
"Great Thunder Wizard, please allow me to continue serving by your side, and send the other messengers to the White Shark Islands to meet with the Crimson Wizard's messengers." Teon bowed his head before Loon.
Of the others who were with Teon, none were skilled at sailing.
If Teon were to go to the White Shark Islands with him, it wouldn't be an easy task for Loon and his companions to sail the ship away.
"That's fine as it is," Luo Ang nodded.
"As you wish, great Thunder Wizard." Teonton bowed, backed away from Loon's sight, and then called over someone to begin making arrangements.
In a short while, a knight pulled the rope off the ship, sat on the back of a shark, and sped off towards the White Shark Islands.
Immediately afterwards, the ship's sails were hoisted, and it moved toward the nearest route, slowly heading toward the Orchid Islands.
