Arcane Age

"Master Gatling, the pirates of Blackwater Bay have arrived at the dock!" The highest level of the tower was brightly lit, and Edward"s butler, dressed in a formal suit, informed Master Gatling, the owner of the tower.

Gatling was sitting on a bench of incomparable width. The desk in front of him was empty. The black marble table was scrubbed as bright as a mirror. The temperament of the superior was naturally distributed.

"How much did they bring this time?"

"Eight dogs and six chickens."

"Are there any high-grade products worthy of attention?"

"I"m sorry, no, they were all born and raised."

"Hum! This group of b*tches should have died in the belly of the fish! In the early years, they were able to send some n.o.ble heirs with special blood lines, but now there are only native species? This kind of goods are all over the place. I would only exchanged precious arcane crystals for these goods? It"s like that they don"t think much of this magician anymore! " Gatling frowned, his eyes shining with two breathtaking lights: "They must be taught a lesson!"

Gatling stood up, activated the secret seal on a tall cabinet behind him, and took out a magic book about one meter long, with walnut texture, with a large transparent arcane crystal wand at the top and a large and thick magic book with a weird red-eyed goat head engraved on the cover.

On the other tip of the island, far from the tower, is the only wharf on the island, where a sloop about ten meters long is quietly parked. Standing on the bow of the boat was a stout, bronzed, middle-aged man, dressed in a linen jacket, whose bare arms were marked by several scars.

"Little Wilford! Heard that you only sent 14 local goods this time? Has my generosity over the years deprived you of the respect you should have for a magician? Perhaps I should make some deep impression on you all? "

Master Gatling was dressed in a black magic robe, with a dark purple peaked cap on his head, a staff in his left hand and a book in his right. His hair and beard were all white and glaring. He was really imposing.

On Orentland, the older the magician, the more revered he will be unless he is old and senile.

The middle-aged man called Little Wilford carefully looked at Master Gatling in front of him. He was amazed to find that the old man who had almost run out of fuel last month seemed to be ten years younger, refreshed and stronger.

Seeing this obvious change, Wilford hurriedly showed respectful expression: "Master Gatling, it is not that I have neglected your dignity, but that two great pirate strongmen have clashed over the crown of a pirate king. Recently, the atmosphere on the sea is very tense ..."

"Crown of Pirate King?" Gatling"s beard shook: "But the deep-sea horn belonged to Francis, king of the West Golden Sea?"

"Yes, when Francis sublimed the west golden sea, under the warships of hundreds, all together, when it was really high-spirited, jovian king of the west golden sea. It"s a pity that 18 years ago he arrogantly plundered the "pearl of Milan" and reparations given to the French king after the defeat of the Milan city-state. This was only pursued by the French royal fleet. Before the decisive battle, he was attacked by the court magician, and finally he was defeated and killed. However, in the final inventory of the spoils, it was found that the most precious treasure of the king of the west golden sea, the deep sea horn, was missing. According to legend, once you get the horn of the deep sea, you can order the thieves to become the new king of the west golden sea! " Wilford also said with a wistful face, wishing that the legendary deep-sea horn could fall in front of him.

"The crown of the pirate king? What a treasure! It"s a pity that I am a magician, indifferent to fame and wealth and devoted to magic. Otherwise, I will have a boiling pa.s.sion and try to get my hands on this pirate crown! " Gatling sighed with emotion, there is fanaticism in his eyes, but more is mocking.

"Master Gatling, although all the goods brought here this time are local goods, they are not silly children like those in the countryside. Most of the children here are the family members and friends of a big businessman. Both men and women have read books, and they can also settle accounts and write letters. Perhaps there are some good Magician talents?"

"Oh? Can read and write? This can save me two years! Let"s have a prior inspection! " Gatling stroked his beard with satisfaction and collected the magic book in his right hand.

Gatling took the lead on the deck and did not seem to worry about his own safety. Wilford followed him like a footman.

Into the cabin, with a fishy smell, Gatling scanned around, the wand in his hand gently stroked and a huge arcane crystal suddenly shone, making the whole cabin bright.

In the corner of the cabin, a group of children, big and small, were trapped in tattered clothes, only in the center of the crowd. The two children, one big and one small, were still awake, but they bravely looked at the people in front of them despite some fears.

The older one is a girl, about 12 years old, with beautiful appearance and white skin color. She is a beautiful girl. The little one is a boy, looks very good, eyes full of anger.

"These two children are the son and daughter of that big businessman. They are both beautiful and good children!" Wilford rushed forward to explain.

Gatling"s eagle-like sharp eye scanned every child in that cabin. After a long time, he nodded with satisfaction.

Edward"s butler, who received the signal, pulled up Wilford and the two began to bargain.

Master gatling exchanged a kind smile: "Children, your suffering is over! I am the master of the tower, Magcian Gatling. You are already apprentices of the tower. Follow me to learn magic and become a magician with great power and respect. "

Wilford, who had completed the deal, lifted his hand. The sloop, like a swimming fish, sped away and soon disappeared from view.

"How about the price?" Gatling asked softly.

"There are three more than ten years old, I pressed the price. However, these children can read and write, and in the end 14 children spent 4 arcane crystals with a total weight of 32 grams. " Edward also responded in a low voice.

"Well, here, after all, it"s far away from the mainland, the price cannot be compared with the city! Edward, my experiment is getting closer and closer to perfection! I have a hunch that next time, I can completely complete this experiment, which lasted for 47 years! And you, my loyal servant, will also receive the most valuable reward! "

"It is my honor to serve you, Master Gatling!" Edward responded excitedly.

"Eternal life, what a tempting word! I think I"m going to catch you! "
