The day after the bonfire party ended, Heath had successfully gathered enough materials to make the Mermaid Sea Gills. He then began to make the Mermaid Sea Gills.
There was nothing much to say about the production process. Life-type Wizard tools used some very simple magic knowledge. As long as the materials were complete, even an Apprentice would be able to complete it easily, not to mention Heath, who was a real Wizard.
In just a few hours, Heath had successfully completed the production of this Wizard tool.
After that, he did not delay. That night, he went to the seaside and took out the Wizard ship, using the night to begin his journey to the sea…
…
A few days later, west of the Golden Sea.
On the endless blue sea, a white sailboat was drifting. The white sails with three masts hanging high were blown up by the sea wind, and the waves rolled up and hit the hull of the boat again and again. Pa! Pa! Pa!
This was an ordinary-looking sailboat, but strangely, there was not a single sign of a sailor on the boat. One had to know that such a three-masted sailboat usually needed at least a dozen people to operate it.
Such a quiet atmosphere made the deck full of resting migratory birds, which looked quite strange.
Da! Da! Da! Da! At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from below the deck.
The startled migratory birds hurriedly flapped their wings and flew into the sky.
Accompanied by the migratory birds that filled the sky, a figure finally walked out from the cabin.
“Yawn!”
He lazily yawned. Heath, who had just finished meditating, rubbed his somewhat sore temples.
After calming himself down, he raised his eyes and looked ahead.
The only thing he could see was the blue sea and the sky of the same color. The two were completely connected and there was no end to it.
Seeing this, Heath could not help but shout, “Nina!”
“Here!”
The ring in his hand flashed, and the translucent Nina appeared beside Heath.
At this moment, she was no longer wearing the red dress. Instead, she had changed into a long dress with a row of buttons and a captain’s hat on her head. She looked like a sailor.
She bowed and said in a serious manner, “Dear Captain, Nina will serve you wholeheartedly. Is there anything I can do for you?”
Nina, who had never been to sea before, was excited as soon as she set sail. She asked Heath to give her control of the Wizard ship so that she could experience the feeling of sailing.
It was not a big deal. Heath was too lazy to drive the autopilot mode, so he gave the control to Nina.
Heath asked, “Where are we? How far are we from the destination?”
Nina pulled her hands to the sides, and a navigation map appeared in her hands. She pretended to look at the map for a while, she said seriously, “Captain, we are currently about 300 miles west of the Golden Sea. The current maximum speed is 20 knots. According to the current speed, we will arrive at Shipwreck Bay in two days at the earliest.”
Heath’s mouth twitched. “…Do you have to do this?”
As a spirit body, all the information was directly connected to her soul after being connected to the Wizard ship. Looking at the nautical chart was unnecessary.
Nina said with a serious face, “Respected Captain Heath, please respect my profession. I am a professional.”
Alright.
It seemed that this ghost girl had fallen in love with cosplay.
…
Two days later, Shipwreck Bay.
After two days of sailing, the sailboat smoothly arrived at Shipwreck Bay.
Standing on the deck, Heath looked ahead.
In the sea ahead, a very strange region appeared.
There was a thick layer of dark clouds floating in the sky, and under the dark clouds was a thick layer of fog, which was particularly eye-catching on this clear blue sea.
This was what the nearby residents called the Shipwreck Bay.
The name came from an ancient legend.
The legend was that the Sea God’s daughter fell in love with a young human sailor and stole the Sea God’s bracelet to elope with him.
When the Sea God found out, she was extremely angry and called for a storm to attack the two of them. She successfully sank the sailboat that they were on.
The Sea God, who still felt that it was not enough to vent her anger, continued to cast a very harsh curse on the sea, causing the sea to be shrouded in fog and dark clouds all day long. Any ship that entered the sea would sink.
As time passed, the name of Shipwreck Bay appeared.
“…Countless broken sailboats that were unclaimed floated in the gloomy bay. The souls that have tried to travel back and forth in the fog.”
“The unfortunate travelers who mistakenly enter, the greedy adventurers who pray to find the treasure, when the living are unfortunate enough to enter, they will let out evil laughter like demons. Ah, those are the dead. The feast of the dead is about to begin.”
The indulgent singing of poems rang out.
Nina stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the dark clouds in front of her with a frown. She was holding a book in her hand, looking very nervous.
Heath was speechless. “Who are you pretending to be? A navigator?”
Nina said, “A scholar, a scholar, okay?”
Heath held his forehead. “Okay, okay, let’s go!”
The sailboat that had stopped moved again and slowly sailed into the bay in front of them. Heath did not seem to care about this sea area that the locals avoided.
That was indeed the case.
Although this place was mysterious, terrifying, and impossible to return to in the eyes of the mortals, in the eyes of the Wizards, this was actually just an ordinary Wizard region.
It was only because of various reasons that the element content here was too dense that this place looked like it was filled with thick fog. As for the dark clouds that covered it all day long… It was actually a Dark Cloud Beast that was released by a local Wizard.
As for the fact that the ships would always sink here, it was mainly because this was a shallow area filled with reefs. It had little to do with curses.
According to Heath’s knowledge, there did seem to be curses here, but they were all at the level of Wizards. It was far from what ordinary people could come into contact with…
Crash! A soft sound was heard.
The sailboat completely left the clear sky outside and sailed into the fog-covered sea.
When the light went into the darkness, the vision naturally became a little blurry, and then his eyes slowly adapted, and the scene in front of Heath gradually unfolded in front of his eyes.
As its name described, Shipwreck Bay was very appropriate.
Under the dim sky, one could see sailboats, which were anchored askew in various places. The decks, which were covered with all kinds of aquatic plants, were decayed masts, and the sails, which looked like rags, hung alone in the air. The sails rippled slightly with the occasional sea breeze.
Hoo! Hoo!
Woo! Woo!
The sea breeze blew over the decks, which were full of holes, and made all kinds of strange sounds, like the evil laughter of the devil.
Eerie, terrifying.
That was Heath’s first impression of the place.
