Chapter 29: Spells and Conditions
The two came to the open deck.
At this time, half of the sun had sunk below the sea level, leaving only a beautiful dim afterglow shining on the sea.
At this moment, Alka suddenly felt the vibration of the ship.
Feeling the vibration, Hammer quickly said, "It's time to sail."
"ha?"
Hearing this, Alka immediately expressed his doubts.
I couldn't help but look up and observe the three tall masts and the surrounding cables.
There were no sailors on the furled sails or mast, and no one was pushing the capstan.
You told me this is the look of sailing?
“Dangdangdang!”
Followed by a series of metal collision sounds.
The winch in the middle turned slowly without anyone pushing it.
With the sound.
The anchor was slowly pulled up from the seabed.
Swish!
Hearing the noise, Alka looked up.
At some point, the sails automatically lowered without any human control.
A pair of crossed fists are reflected on the blue sail.
With a clicking sound, the ship slowly withdrew from the port.
The rocking of the boat indicated that he had begun sailing on the sea.
Alka just stood there in a daze.
Watching the entire ship start sailing on its own without any control.
“It’s really…it’s fully automatic.”
I sighed silently in my heart.
Then his eyes lit up, and the magical phenomenon made Alka yearn for the extraordinary world and power even more.
Hammer comes and looks at Alka.
After thinking for a while, he asked, "Arka, you don't know this yet, do you?"
Hearing Hamo's words, Alka came back to his senses and looked at him.
Nodded: "I have just started to learn about this, and I don't understand many things. Before this, I was just an ordinary person."
Hearing this, Hamo slapped himself on the head.
He only now realized the answer that Alka wanted when he asked the question before.
"I'm sorry, I thought you knew this. After all, most of the trainees on board have a certain understanding of this."
Then he started to introduce himself.
“This is a spell-casting ship. As for what specific spells were used, I don’t know. However, with the help of these spells.
The entire ship can automatically furl the sails, arrange the cables, raise the anchor, and automatically steer the ship without any human control.
However, navigation steering can only be used on routes that have been sailed many times. If it is an unfamiliar route, the captain or helmsman must control it. "
Hear Hammer's explanation.
Alka was keenly aware of the main force at work here.
Spell.
The only thing he knew about spells was Jack's book on spell analysis.
But there are only three spells in it, and only some of the descriptions and functions of these three spells are written in detail.
But there is no mention of what the overall spell is.
Alka only knew that this was a magical power, and the spell should be a way of displaying some kind of power.
After saying this, Hamo thought about it and probably felt that Alka might not understand the spell very well.
He said, "As for the spell, I don't know much. After all, I'm not an apprentice crew member. I just know a little bit."
"A spell is something like a graphic text that can be used to exert magical power through magic or other means."
After a brief explanation, Hamo shrugged helplessly, indicating that this was all he knew.
After all, he is just a secondary member, just an ordinary person who has some understanding of these supernatural powers.
Then he smiled and patted Alka on the shoulder and said, "You go find the captain first. I have to go count some supplies that I just resupplied on the island, and I also have to calculate the funds."
As he said this, he waved to Alka and walked down through the entrance next to him.
Watching Hamo leave, he looked up at the tall mast and the bulging sails.
Walk towards the captain's room.
"Boom boom boom."
"Come in."
Hearing the sound coming from inside, Alka opened the door and walked in.
Observed the captain's cabin.
The decoration is very bright, with some strange ornaments placed on the desks around, and some unknown books in the bookcase next to it.
Various documents and materials were piled up next to it.
Alka saw many maps piled up in the corner.
Then Alka saw a stone statue on the table.
Stone mother?
I looked up and saw Andre writing something on the desk.
Did he also believe in the Stone Mother? Was he once a member of the island?
Or, in fact, there are many people in the outside world who believe in the Stone Mother.
This is not some belief peculiar to the island.
Andre said without even looking up: "Just sit over there."
After a short while, he seemed to have finished his work and looked up at Alka.
"I have some understanding of you from Parkchi, and I know what you desire."
Then he thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know much about this extraordinary world?"
"Not at all," said Alka, shaking his head.
Andre nodded, seemingly not surprised .
“The number of people with extraordinary powers is limited, and without new [treasures], the number is fixed.
Therefore, every opportunity to obtain extraordinary power is extremely precious. I have the channel, but I cannot give it to people who don’t know enough or have insufficient potential. This is a waste. Do you understand what I mean?”
Alka nodded.
In other words, extraordinary opportunities are limited in number and are not something that can be given to everyone.
Only if you show enough value can Andre be willing to spend such a precious spot on you.
Andre then continued, "We are a treasure hunting group, and I owe Parkchi a favor, so my requirements for you are not too high."
"Twice. As long as you can make a significant contribution in the two treasure hunts, or let me see your talent and potential, I will give you the spot."
"But the time limit is two years. I can't always be your nanny and give you opportunities. Is that a problem?"
Hearing such a request.
Alka nodded.
Twice? It might be difficult for others, but it was not difficult at all for Alka.
Providing them with information they don't know and providing more specific locations would be considered a significant contribution.
Thinking of this, he felt a little relieved.
Because it wasn't too difficult for him.
After seeing Alka nod.
Andre pointed to the bookshelf behind Alka.
"Do you see those three books with blue covers on the second shelf behind you? Take them out and take them home to read. Remember not to damage them. They can give you a general but detailed understanding of the extraordinary world."
"Our destination is Meister Island. At the speed of the Sea Fist, it will take about five days. During this time, you should get to know the world you are about to face."
Alka stood up, removed the panel of the bookshelf, and took out the three books that Andre mentioned.
Touching the book cover made of unknown animal leather, I felt its coolness.
Then he nodded to Andre, bowed and said, "Then I'll go out first."
"Um."
