Chapter 380: 136. Human-shaped “machine” _4

Noland Lee drove the car while sensing Denise Green’s position, emphasizing that she must be careful to protect herself and not be discovered by Tatis’ people.

This was the second time Denise Green had accompanied Noland Lee on a long journey, and it was at night again. She didn’t complain about anything, always responding to Noland Lee with a brainless support and encouragement attitude.

In her words, because of the dependence on the contractor to obtain Rebirth Magic Power, the contractors generally treated the Companion Witches as tools. Tools for teleportation and healing. This was caused by the fact that Companion Witches had almost no means of fighting, researching, or sneaking other than teleportation and healing.

Companion Witches need the Rebirth Magic Power from the contractor, and the contractor can find other wizards to cooperate and replace the teleportation and healing functions of the Companion Witches. Given this, the contractor is actually dominant in this contract relationship established by magic.

When one party depends on the other for survival, the exploitation of the weaker party arises.

According to what Denise Green knew:

In the week after the contract, 70% of Companion Witches felt the potential malice of the contractor and received instructions with a seductive and coercive nature.

More than 50% of Companion Witches had disagreements with their contractors, and they would actively stay away from their contractors during non-task periods.

Even more extreme cases would completely avoid the contractor, keeping a range of thousands of kilometers from them, ensuring that they cannot communicate and sense each other, in order to avoid being controlled by the other party.

There were relatively few contractors like Noland Lee who treated their Companion Witches on an equal footing.

What is even more valuable is that Noland Lee has never made any unreasonable requests.

Unreasonable requests…

When Noland Lee heard this, he thought he had crossed into the world of erotic fiction…

Factually speaking, he is a man with normal physiological characteristics.

The reason why he could control his brain and lower body was because of the lessons he learned before crossing.

He had experience in this area.

In summary, it was nothing more than eight words: Women admire strength, human hearts change easily.

Before he was invincible, no woman could break his Ice Heart Technique.

This was Noland Lee’s idea, bearing his will and ambition.

On the road, there was no conversation, and everyone focused on traveling.

In a naturally formed seaside cave chamber, Noland Lee saw the exploration ship and its crew.

The exploration ship was modified from a large twin-hull alchemy yacht, more than 50 meters in length, with a top speed of 40 kilometers per hour. The spacious interior space was enough to place alchemy equipment.

Its power was provided by the alchemy array. The alchemy array at the rear of the hull would jet a water stream to propel the ship forward. On both sides of the hull, there were several smaller alchemy arrays that sprayed torrents of water at extremely fast flow rates to help the ship quickly turn.

After Noland Lee boarded the ship, he met the rumored Miss Esme Smith.

She was a female Alchemist about 40 years old, not very attractive, and due to her long time at sea, her skin was very rough.

After a brief introduction with Esme Smith, Noland Lee entered the resting room, sat on the sofa, stared at the sea waves outside, and waited quietly for the exploration ship to approach the cargo ship.

The ship he was on had a large volume and was white at first glance, making it conspicuous at sea. But in fact, this was not the case. The outer metal plates of the ship were processed with alchemy, and the alchemy array inside had a camouflage effect, making it optically concealed.

As soon as the button in the control room was pressed, the ship would enter a disguised state, and the exterior color would become close to the sea surface.

Unless it was a very professional detection device or extraordinary power, it would be difficult to discover the ship on the vast sea surface.

In this almost transparent state, everyone traveled for about two days. On an open sea area 76 kilometers away from the land, they found the cargo ship of Blackwater Winery.

It was a night on the sea with a light rain, and lightning and thunder crossed the sky from time to time. The rain was getting heavier, and the waves were getting higher under the sea breeze.

Amidst the swaying hull, Noland Lee bent his legs and tightened his abdomen to maintain balance.

On the pitch-black sea, he saw the cargo ship three kilometers away.

A mental beacon was placed by him on the sea surface near the cargo ship, followed by a “Mind View”.

Noland Lee took advantage of the convenience of vision leap, and saw the full view of the cargo ship.

Just as he thought, the Blackwater Winery Company’s logo was on the ship’s hull. There was no one on the exterior deck, but occasionally the crew walked through the brightly lit cabin.

The crew members did not casually pass by the walkways and windows; their movements were very regular, as if they were strictly executing a plan.

Were the crew members routinely inspecting the cabin?

The exploration team members aboard the exploration ship observed the scene on the cargo ship through telescopes and came to a unanimous conclusion:

The crew on the cargo ship was not inspecting the cabin; their frequency of walking back and forth was too high, more like they were performing a guard task.

Noland Lee heard the conversation of the exploration team members.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the magic vision provided by “Mind View”, seized the opportunity, and locked in on a patrol team that hurriedly passed by the window.

The patrol team was composed of five crew members.

Noland Lee threw a Deconstruction Technique at the leading member.
