Arcane Lord

Chapter 220: Lucky Owen

In a moment, Xia Duo came out of the barracks, followed by a group of fully equipped soldiers, and the leader was Captain Gib, who had worked with him before.

Xia Duo was in a good mood, and the soldiers provided by Lord Savile were of good quality. They were all veterans who had experienced the orc wave, not recruits added later.

Coupled with the presence of an acquaintance like Gibb, for this team of soldiers, Xia Duo can guarantee considerable control from the beginning. Although he can also control without Gibb, it is not as convenient as having Gibb after all.

Arranged these ten people to the port warehouse and put them together with the leaders who were recruited. After comforting and encouraging them, Xia Duo returned to the mage.

Now everything is in place, only the ships purchased by the Leaton Chamber of Commerce from the North Hiboden have arrived!

...

Back to the Mage Tower, Xia Duo went to see Mentor Niya for the first time. Next, he was going to explore new territory. The weekly lectures would definitely be affected, and he needed to readjust.

Generally speaking, apprentices are not qualified to bargain with their instructors, but Xia Duo’s situation is a bit special. Niya readily agreed, and she also gave Xia Duo a communication artifact, enough for Xia Duo to contact him 20 miles away To her.

Although this kind of connection can only transmit a short message and cannot be used for teaching, it can be used to arrange the next lecture time.

At the same time, although Niya did not say another function of this communication magic weapon, Xia Duo was able to guess one or two. It was probably for him to ask for help at a critical moment!

After returning to the residence and sorting out the necessary belongings for this trip, Xia Duo began to make magic scrolls. It was not so convenient to leave the mage tower and want to make again.

You need to reserve magic to deal with any situation that may arise, probably only one or two can be made before going to bed.

In addition to matters related to territory development, Xia Duo also has arrangements for himself. Although he can't completely sink his heart to engage in theoretical research outside, he can also improve his practical experience in the process of constantly using spells.

And from practice, it can confirm the theory and develop the theory.

Xia Duo was going to treat this development as a rare practice of spellcasting, returning to the Tower of Time every ten days and a half or so, charging it, and then solving the problems accumulated during this period.

So cycle.

...

Three days later, the port of Savile Town.

Chateau stood on the shore and watched the wooden boat docked by the simple trestle.

In the eyes of Xia Duo, who has seen more cargo ships, warships and even aircraft carriers on the earth, this ship that is no more than 20 meters long and 5 or 6 meters wide is a small boat.

In this way, a small boat cost thousands of gold coins to buy. Xia Duo even felt that just cutting a few tall trees in the green bead forest to make a raft was almost enough.

On the simple trestle bridge, two groups of soldiers carrying equipment are boarding the ship in an orderly manner.

One team consisted of soldiers supported by Lord Savile and led by Gibb; the other team consisted of ten people selected from the recruited leaders, all of whom had experience as adventurers.

For the first development, Xia Duo was not prepared to make any major moves. The main task was to establish a temporary stronghold and take root first.

Seeing that the last soldier had been on the ship, Xia Duo was also about to leave. He agreed to the members of the organization and the cooperative chamber of commerce who came to see off:

"Dean, Edridge, I hope you will become true mages next time you come back! Mrs. Patty, Yalman, thank you for everything you have done for me. Hans, Fleck, President Slavin, Daxia The development of the collar has already begun. Next time I come back, I need to see the personnel and materials you promised."

After speaking, Xia Duo waved his hand and walked to the trestle bridge, jumped onto the flat-bottomed cargo ship, and shouted in the cabin:

"Captain Owen, go!"

"Yes, Lord Lord!" Owen's loud voice came from inside, followed by another roar, "Little rascals, move! Hey! Hey!"

Listening to Owen's powerful voice, Xia Duo showed a satisfied smile. After seeing Owen with his own eyes, I realized that Owen is not at all like a person who is almost 60 years old.

It was really lucky to be able to hire Irving. Originally, Irving had retired, but after all he couldn't let go of life on the boat, which was picked up by Yarman.

If it is late, it might be preempted by other chambers of commerce.

...

After several expansions, the river channel in the port of Savile was several times wider than other sections of Wolfsburg, enough to allow ships larger than Chardonnay to turn around at will.

That is, when the cargo ship left the port, Xia Duo thought that the Wolfsburg River was only ten to twenty meters wide. It would be funny if he couldn't turn his head out.

It may be necessary to drive to the basin lake downstream, and then turn around before returning to Savile Town, but in this way, I don't know how much time will be wasted.

The straight-line distance from Savile to Daxia is about 20 miles, there will be more waterways, but it only takes half a day to get there.

When returning, the warm current of spring and summer blows from the south. Although it is upstream, it is also downwind. If you count the boat at night, you can return within a day.

But the prerequisite for all this is to be able to turn around near Daxialing. If you want to go to Basin Lake first, it may take nearly a week.

It may be even longer if you count the time you can't sail at night.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo felt it necessary to ask the "old driver" Captain Owen. Xia Duo had already given him the map of Da Xia Ling when we met him before.

After arriving at the ship, Owen was at the helm, with subtle movements, not as if he was controlling the rudder, but as if the rudder was actively cooperating with him, even a layman like Chateau could see that it was extraordinary.

Xia Duo thought to himself, it seemed that he had really picked up the treasure this time, and he felt more confident that Owen could solve the problem of the boat turning around in the river.

"Captain Owen, is the new ship still adapting?"

"Lord Lord." Owen first saluted ~www.ltnovel.com~ and then patted the rudder and praised, "This boat is really good, it should be built by Hiboden, I used to drive this boat when I was young. really not bad!"

"I don't know much about the ship, but this ship was indeed purchased from Hiboden. Captain Irving, I have something to ask you."

"My lord, what's the matter?"

"After this ship arrives at this destination, can it find a suitable position to turn around?" Xia Duo hoped to hear good news from Owen.

Irving is worthy of being an "old driver". Hearing Xia Duo's question without any hesitation, he immediately gave an affirmative answer:

"Lord Lord, the landing location you chose is really a coincidence. There is a section of the river less than half a mile downstream from which you can turn around. If you miss this, you can only turn around and return via Basin Lake."

Xia Duo secretly said that it was dangerous, and at the same time, the mood that he had been carrying since the start was also a lot easier.

In the current situation, it takes only one or two days to go from the development point to the port of Savile Town. In addition to facilitating the movement of personnel and materials, it is also much more convenient for Xia Duo to return to the Tower of Time to charge.

When he was happy, he declared: "From now on, this ship will be called'Lucky Owen'!"

Owen's hands trembled when he heard it. He had been sailing for a lifetime, and he couldn't get a ship to call his name. Although he knew it was the young mage lord's method to draw people's hearts, he couldn't help his heart agitated.

At this moment, his whole body is full of power, and he feels that he can do it for another ten years!

"Lord, the life of Old Owen is sold to you!"

For nothing else, just because this "Lucky Owen" can continue to run in the water, the old Owen has even begun to imagine the scene of driving this ship to sea.
