Nathan and Edward walked along the street towards the city center of Port Fulan.
While admiring the street scene, they discussed their views on the city.
"I said, aren't you afraid of being recognized? After all, you used to be a famous pirate leader here."
Nathan said jokingly.
"Hmph! The population here has more than increased tenfold, and the streets are full of new faces."
Edward looked fearless, and suddenly he looked at a place.
"Hey, look!"
Edward pointed to a storefront around the corner ahead.
"What's wrong?"
"It's an alchemy shop. Didn't you complain about being a little seasick? Maybe you can go in and ask if there is any medicine to treat it."
Nathan smiled wryly, "Oh, forget it, I don't want to drink some weird things."
Edward insisted on his point of view, "Go in and see if there is any hindrance, maybe there is some rare potion."
"Okay!" Nathan shrugged, "Just do as you say."
The two turned around and walked towards the alchemy shop.
The business of the alchemy shop seemed to be booming, and customers kept coming in and out at the door.
This is not a small shop, the space inside is very large, and there are huge wooden shelves beside the wall, which are filled with potions of different colors and other alchemy products.
Edward finally squeezed to the front of the counter, and the person in charge of receiving him was a very young guy, probably only in his teens, with a face full of childishness.
"Is there any potion for seasickness?" Edward asked.
"Potion for seasickness? Sir, you have come to the right place!"
The young man was very enthusiastic, "I'll find it for you right now."
At this time, a somewhat exaggerated and pleasantly surprised shout sounded from behind Edward.
"Hi! Hi! Hi! Isn't this... Isn't this Little Loggins?"
It was Nathan, who recognized the little boy behind the counter.
When he and his mother were recruiting local spellcasters to join the Arcane Society in Jiaowan, they had contacted a group of wandering spellcasters who had lost their homes due to the oppression of the church.
This group established a refuge camp in the dense virgin jungle of Jiaowan, struggling to survive.
Nathan had seen several members of this caster group, including the little boy in front of him, Rodgins.
When Roggins heard someone calling his name, his body shook violently, and then he looked towards the source of the voice.
He stared at Nathan, who was also smiling at him.
Luo Jinsi was thinking, and suddenly remembered where he had seen this face before.
His face was quickly covered by fear, and he finally came to the Northwest Bay thousands of miles away from his hometown. He thought he could start again in a safe and sound way, and no one would disturb his life anymore, but at that moment just now, the calm was overwhelmed. broken.
Even if the opponent is also a caster!
Logins didn't say anything, and ran to the back in a panic.
"Who... is he?"
Edward looked at Nathan with doubtful sunlight.
Nathan looked around and confirmed that no one noticed him, then whispered in Edward's ear, "The caster of Horn Bay."
Edward was surprised, "Why is the spellcaster from Jiaowan here?"
But he immediately realized, "Yes, there is a war going on in Jiaowan. Ordinary people run away, let alone oppressed spellcasters."
After a while, an old man who looked to be in his fifties came out from behind.
"Oh, today I am really surprised by one after another."
Nathan looked at the old man, this time he was really surprised.
"Mr. Ord, long time no see." Nathan greeted the old man, who had also met the old mage.
Old Ode nodded back, "Everyone, this is the place to talk, please follow me."
In the backyard of the alchemy shop, old Odd invited Nether and Edward to sit around a stone table.
"How did you get to Northwest Bay from Horn Bay?" Nathan asked his own question.
"It's like this..."
Old Ord recounted their experiences.
After he finished speaking, Nathan shook his head regretfully.
"Please forgive my bluntness, I still think you made the wrong decision."
When I and my mother Mariana came into contact with this group of spellcasters, I tried my best to persuade them to join the secret society, but they finally refused.
Nathan said a little braggingly: "The Secret Law Society has become stronger than before. To tell you the truth, Mr. Ord, we have already controlled a country!"
Old Aode still had a calm expression on his face, and he just asked blandly, "Is it the Duchy of Yindun in Jiaowan?"
The matter of the Principality of Inton had spread to the Northwest Bay, causing a stir among the mages hiding here. Everyone agreed that they should find someone to go back and have a look, so Sylvia took a boat to Jiaowan.
"No no no! Inton is just a small country."
Nathan said with some pride: "What we control is a bigger country. Compared with Yin Dun, it can be called bigger in every respect."
He still didn't say which country it was, although he was eager to name it.
"I believe that in the near future, she will be completely ruled by us, and she will stand tall and shake the entire continent."
Nathan's agitation didn't seem to affect Old Odd. UU reading he leisurely stuffed the pipe filter into his mouth, and took two puffs on the cigarette.
"Perhaps you will succeed, but it is foreseeable that it will be hard work and even... fighting. Alas, Nathan, we are all people here who long for a peaceful life. Of course, in your eyes, we are all Some cowards."
"However, we really hate bloodshed from the bottom of our hearts. We don't want to bleed ourselves, and we don't want others to bleed. And... the idea of the Arcane Society is too radical for us. You know, many spellcasters still think that It is a member of human beings and does not want to become a superior existence."
"Okay!" said Nether, somewhat despondently, "that's an option, but I'll say..."
His eyes were full of sincerity, "If you change your mind, the Mystic Society will still welcome all compatriots. You know, spellcasters are not tolerated by the world. If the lord here finds out your identity, what is waiting for you It's still burning or hanging."
"We have our own way to face this, but thank you for reminding us."
Old Odd smiled, and he didn't say one thing—the lord here is accepting of spellcasters. The less people know about this kind of thing, the better, and protect that respectable adult as much as possible.
While they were talking, there was a sudden loud commotion from the street outside.
"What happened?"
Nathan, who had always been vigilant in his heart, stood up all of a sudden.
A thin figure ran in, it was the boy named Luo Jinsi.
Contrary to just now, the boy's face was full of excitement.
"Grandpa Od, there's news from the port that the Western Exploration Team is back!"
"Come back from the other direction!"
