Chapter 343: Stranger, do you know the Lord of Glory?
Gretel spent a lot of time to explain clearly to Captain Jacob what he wanted the sheep for. It was an experiment, really an experiment, using live sheep to test magic, not doing anything weird!
Well, if you are unlucky, you may torture the sheep to death; if you are lucky, you will have to dissect the sheep to see if there is any damage to the lungs...
"So how many sheep are you going to kill at one time?" Captain Jacob looked at him worriedly:
"There aren't many left on the ship! Don't do all the damage in one go, and you won't have anything to eat in the last few days!"
He knew the magician's experiments very well. It wouldn't be a problem to kill a bunch of experimental animals with one slip of his hand. If this Nordmark mage killed all the sheep, the magician and knight on the ship, and all at once,
The guests complained...
"No, don't worry!" Grete assured again and again:
"Besides, it takes time to dissect sheep. How many sheep can I dissect in one day? Four at most, two in the morning and two in the afternoon, no more!"
"...Okay, you can go talk to the logistics chief yourself! If you kill the sheep and the passengers complain, I won't speak for you!"
From then on, Gretel lived a life of experimenting with magic - dissection - experimenting with magic again - and dissecting again. Every day, he wore long leather shoes and a leather apron, walking around in the kitchen and licking the chef's hands.
His whole body was a mess. Seeing him like this, Black Crow Swamp would probably be delighted immediately.
Under this kind of high-intensity work, Gretel's magic control level improved rapidly - mainly because he could directly cut open the sheep's alveoli every time and visually inspect the damage to the sheep's alveoli.
And Captain Jacob was also very capable. The day before the trade group disembarked, he actually finished analyzing the spell model and answered all of Gretel's questions. Of course, except for one-lung ventilation. Gretel looked at him like this
Show it to yourself the same way, with exclamation written on your face:
"so fast……"
Archmage Serrano next door is still pulling out his hair!
"of course!"
Captain Jacob held his head high and accepted Gretel's admiration. As soon as Gretel left, he immediately used a water mirror spell and an illumination spell. He went back and forth and tried to count his hair:
It seems that the blank area in the center of his head has expanded by another 5 millimeters... This Nordmark mage can really cause him trouble!
Grete snickered and put the captain's resentment behind him. He followed the trade team, turning his head left and right, curiously observing the port of Anya. This port, and the port of Nevis City, are...
So different!
Anya Port is the largest seaport on the Hermon Peninsula and the only trading port. Facing the bay, backed by mountains, and surrounded on three sides by mountains, jungles and wilderness. Grete stood at the port and looked into the distance, a rich greenery.
From the hills not far away to the skyline, you can't even tell how far the mountains and forests extend.
With so many mountains and forests, wood can naturally be made with great effort. Along the way Grete walked, the trestle bridges were all made of logs. Huge thick logs were smashed directly into the depths of the bay, more than one meter wide and thick as a palm.
The wooden planks are arranged side by side on the trestle, with no gaps between the planks, making it feel particularly safe to step on.
In comparison, the wooden trestle in Port Nevis cannot be called wood at all!
Gretel measured it and was secretly stunned. When he got the oak staff, he followed Elder Erwin throughout the hills. The largest oak trees he saw were not as big as this!
"Is there any bigger wood?"
He asked in a low voice. Before the magician in front could answer, Bernard carried the big bone stick and said "hmm" from behind:
"Look at that ship."
Gretel looked along his direction. Outside the bay in the distance, a ship was approaching rapidly. The ship had a long and slender hull. It looked a bit like the Gondola in the previous life, but it was more than twice as big. Thinking about it, it was only
This kind of giant wood can make the keel of a long ship.
The side of the ship is not high, and it does not have another floor on the deck like the Philosopher's Stone. The bows on both sides are pointed upturned, pointing straight to the sky. The shape is symmetrical, the only difference is that there are vivid dragon heads carved on one side.
, eyes wide open and roaring, the shape is ferocious.
On both sides of the ship, the densely arranged shields reflected silver light, like two rows of silver dragon scales, majestic and murderous.
"This is……?"
"It's a warship. Looking at it like this, it probably just came back from a job."
Bernard's tone was faintly excited. Grete shrank subconsciously and quickly followed the team.
There are many sails and masts in the port. The entire city of Anyia, and even the entire Black Gate Peninsula, can be said to be vast and sparsely populated. However, standing at the harbor and taking a glance, there are at least a hundred masts, tall and short. The entire port area,
In an instant, there was a huge flow of people.
There were people soliciting customers, hawking goods, and carrying luggage for customers, tall and short, big and small, and you couldn't see their heads at a glance. Grete and his group walked along the trestle, and they actually had to turn around from time to time to avoid the passing people.
pedestrian.
They walked out of the port area, crossed several long streets, and entered a hotel directly. The hotel was a three-story building. The outer walls were made of extremely strong logs, and the logs were used to build a sloped roof.
, Gretel visually measured the height, and it was definitely higher than the sixth floor in his previous life.
A triangular flag was erected on the top of the building, with a crow painted on the heavy canvas. The strong wind blew. The group passed through the building and settled in an independent courtyard at the back. Archmage Serrano pointed at the flag and said loudly
:
"Everyone, look for this flag. This is the sign of [Crow Hotel]. In the entire port of Anyia, anyone you ask can take you back. We will rest here for one night and set off after breakfast tomorrow morning. You can go on your own
Go to the port for a stroll, pay attention to safety, and remember to come back early in the evening!"
A group of people agreed with a bang. Except for a few people who were on duty to guard the goods, most members of the trade group were eager to go shopping. Grete washed up in a hurry, put on a set of ordinary clothes, and immediately dragged Bernard onto the street.
The long street where [Crow Hotel] is located is quite prosperous. Grete walked along and saw a dazzling array of shops on both sides:
Deer skin, wolf skin, bear skin, seal skin, walrus skin;
Thick, dense, lustrous black fox skins are placed alone in the middle and hung in rows on wooden shelves;
Long knives, short knives, giant axes, and war hammers, all lined up in rows, the cold light was piercing, and the sound of hammering inside was deafening;
After walking for a while, there was a small building made of bricks and stones. In the display window inlaid with large pieces of transparent glass, there were sets of white porcelain...
Grete walked and looked at everything, his eyes dazzled. As he walked, he suddenly saw a cute little house in the gap between the huge wooden house:
There are two buildings side by side on the front of the house. The one on the left is surrounded by two elegant arcs, like a flower petal that is full at the bottom and sharp at the top. It has three circular steps at the door, an oval wooden door in the center and a rectangular glass on the second floor.
Looking out the window together, it looks like a penguin sitting in place;
The one on the right is a cylinder made of gravel. A piece of the cylinder is dug out and a rectangular wooden door is built in. The height of the cylinder is one-third lower than the penguin on the left, and there is a section of space at the top.
Another spire was put on it;
Behind the two doorways, three or four sharp roofs extend out, as well as a two-story building. At a glance, the whole building looks like the most innocent creation of a child, yet soaked in the weather of the times.
Gretel couldn't help but walked over to take a look. The wooden door of the Penguin Building was ajar, and there was faint music flowing inside, but the cylindrical wooden door was tightly closed. Gretel hesitated at the door for a moment, hesitating whether he could go in to visit. Suddenly
, the Penguin wooden door opened with a creak, and an old man in a white robe walked out with a kind smile:
"Stranger, are you willing to come in and have a look and understand the grace of the Lord of Glory?"
