Extraordinary Sailing

There is no wind, no sound, only white brilliance all over the sky.

Aiwen stands alone at the boundary between the sea of ​​human collective unconsciousness and the spiritual world, as if standing in space outside a huge planet.

Because of the thirty-six times the speed of time, the surface of the "planet" is undergoing drastic changes every moment.

At this time [Divination Ritual - All-Seeing Eye] has been activated.

If it is completely useless to get some difficult-to-decipher cryptic images like the previous divination in Milan, Aiwen needs more accurate hints, whether it is coordinates, time of appearance, possible holders, etc. are important clues.

The medium to ensure that the ritual can be effective is the members of the school, the creation, the mysterious source, and other things that are deeply related to it, as a magnetic pole in the vast world that attracts the secret scrolls of the school's inheritance.

The stronger the school, the stronger the "magnetism" will be!

In other words.

Not only for divination, but also for the daily development of the school. The wizard school is a product of "gathering crowds". The stronger the attraction to the same kind, the faster the development will naturally be, until it enters a positive and virtuous circle.

Although according to the extraordinary gathering effect, Aiwen himself, as a high-ranking wizard, is the largest pole in the material world.

But just to be on the safe side, he still summoned all the apprentices under his command who had already mastered the "tree of life meditation method" in the ceremony presided over by Milan like a giant eye, including Jacob and Kay, who were latecomers. you.

And brought the complete first three volumes of "Rite of Flesh and Flesh", the toy box of "Steel Man" (who once held the fourth volume), his research materials on [Animation of the Dead], and all creations related to the school , be sure to maximize the effectiveness of the medium.

The spirit world is connected to the collective unconsciousness of all human beings, and transcends it. It can be said that all the secrets in the world are reflected here.

Under the effect of rituals, if the strength of the mysterious connection between the two parties is strong enough, Aiwen will be sent to the corresponding area of ​​the spirit world. As for whether he can get clues in the spirit world, it depends on his own ability.

This is also the limit of what Milan can do as a "prophet".

"If this method still doesn't work, my 'Legendary Battleship' may only be in the rough stage, and the 'Ship Spirit' after the extraordinary transformation will be far away."

If he could get the fourth volume before Ilya went to war, even if it only took a few months, he would still have the confidence to build a semi-finished product that could join the battlefield, and it would be a semi-finished product that was built strictly according to the [Activation Ship Spirit Art].

It takes at least 3-6 years for ordinary craftsmen in various countries to build a warship from start to finish.

The key to success is to use wood that has been stored for several years and the moisture content has dropped to below 20% and is fully dried. The ideal situation is to use this wood to slowly build the boat, so that the frame and shell of the boat can fit perfectly.

Craftsmen will process various woods into corresponding components according to different parts of the hull, such as keels, ship ribs, ship strakes, masts, etc. Hemp rope, tar, and asphalt are also essential. This is a systematic project.

The general practice is that oak is used for keels, pine or fir for masts, teak for decks, oak or various other hardwoods for hulls, etc.

Although it can be built in 6 months in a wartime emergency, only insufficiently dry or inferior quality wood can be used. When such a ship is in a dark, warm, and humid environment, the strength of the wooden joints will rapidly decrease, the frame and wood of the ship will loosen, and finally sink into the water.

If built in strict accordance with the technical requirements, a battleship can be used for fifty years as long as it is not destroyed, but it may decay after only five years if it is built with emergency measures.

However, a great wizard launched the [Exceeding Limit Ritual·Activation of Skillful Hands], which is enough to use the extraordinary ship materials that Sirius spent tens of hundreds of years to accumulate—the "treasure tree" to transform the hull of the ship once in a very short period of time. Build into shape.

Just like the "Venus Star" once.

Moreover, the design drawings of the "Legendary Warship" had been carefully prepared by Aiwen for more than a year, and he knew every component well. Especially after obtaining the ability and vision of the third level, he made adjustments in many details.

Whether it is the combat system that determines combat power: weapon system, fire control system, mobile wizard tower system, self-defense defense system, or the navigation system that determines action power: propulsion system, navigation system, communication system, and maritime detection system.

And support systems to ensure the continuity of the warship: ammunition supply system, energy supply system, internal ecosystem system, medical system, life service system, fresh water and food production system.

Many details have been planned, and even many technologies have been slowly accumulated several years ago, and the only thing that needs to be obtained is the [Activation of the Ship Spirit Art] to combine them into a whole, complete the extraordinary transformation and awaken the ship spirit!

However.

As time slowly passed, Ai Wen still didn't feel the slightest connection with the same origin, as if the inheritance secret scroll was covered by an airtight cover.

And not only the fourth volume, but also the fifth volume, as if they had been artificially sealed.

I can't help but gradually become anxious, because this is not only related to the shipbuilding plan, but also related to the future of my wizard path!

But just an hour later, when Aiwen was about to give up and return to the material world, without any warning, his body was suddenly surrounded by an eye-like light and shadow and sank downward into the spiritual world.

Passively falling into a half-dream and half-awake state, Aiwen saw ancient battlefields, dead and barren deserts, dark and humid huge mushroom forests, vibrant forests, and twisted ancient god cities passing by one by one.

Ring ring ring.

I don't know how long it took, Ivan suddenly woke up completely, and looked up at the place where he was.

The eyes are full of familiar tree species in the high latitudes of the old continent. At the end of the line of sight is a huge black building, and then the sky is clear in the black sky, but a few pumpkins occasionally float by? !

And one of those carved jack-o'-lanterns with orange lights coming out of holes.

After confirming that there is no problem with his connection with the beacon anchorage, and that he can return at any time, Aiwen felt relieved, and muttered to himself: "Didn't you find those two inheritance secret volumes? What is this place?"

In any case, this is also a reminder of the [All-Seeing Eye] ritual, and Ivan decided to go and see it first.

Sa——

Within a few steps, he had already come to the very conspicuous huge building.

This is a building in the style of the "Dark Millennium" era, with a typical centralized layout, with a hall as the center, two vertical and horizontal axes, and four tall pointed towers.

Listen to Sir Katarov in the cursed oil painting introduce the history that has been covered up.

In the dark history from 1,500 years ago to the end of the Renaissance 500 years ago, the Church of the Seven Gods was notoriously conservative, stubborn, and unreasonable, and firmly imprisoned the people's thoughts with various dogmas and rules.

At that time, not to mention ordinary civilians, even the vast majority of nobles were illiterate, including officials, who did not have any habit of recording history, and had no achievements in art, architecture, sculpture, etc.

There is also the large-scale epidemic that almost destroyed half of the world. This is the deepest memory left to people by the "Dark Millennium".

It was not until 500 years ago, when there was a big cough and the rise of the "Renaissance", the "Dark Millennium" came to an end.

However, in order to avoid wizards with top-level knowledge and become the biggest beneficiaries of the world's rebounding trend, the Church of the Seven Gods launched the largest witch hunt in recorded history, which lasted for nearly two hundred years and killed most of the wizards in the Old Continent. Deport, kill, imprison.

Standing in front of the arched gate, Ivan gently read the spiritual script on the brass doorplate: "The Great Library of Turin!"

Speaking of the mysterious side represented by wizards in the Old World and the New World, Ivan thinks he still has some understanding, but this building that shines with powerful witchcraft aura makes him feel a sincere sense of strangeness.

in addition.

Because the spiritual world is a higher dimension than the material world, human beings enter it in the state of a spiritual body, but they do not have the ability to observe and process higher dimensions.

So everything that exists here is full of compression, displacement and symbolism in the eyes of human beings. What you see and feel may not be the real appearance, it may be just an insignificant corner of a huge iceberg floating on the water.

It can be said that except for the "sun of the spiritual world" and the "sea of ​​the spiritual world", the external images displayed have been processed by the rules of the world, and the energy of the spiritual world communicates with the residue deposited in the collective unconsciousness of the material world. Shaped together.

The root of various things may come from real history, or it may be just the fantasy of some people, or even an idea of ​​a powerful existence. Of course, it may also be that the aborigines of the spiritual world have nothing to do with the material world.

But this building is different. It feels like the qualitative change after the restoration of the upper wizard. If it is brought into reality, it must still look like it is now, without any change.

And in the spirit world, one of the meanings of this characteristic is: powerful!

at the same time.

In the lobby of the main building, sitting behind a desk full of various books, a gorgeous lady with curly hair and retro dress, holding a small mirror to make up her makeup, suddenly seemed to feel something.

She didn't move her head, but the face in the mirror suddenly turned to look at the door.

Da da da..

Accompanied by the sound of crisp footsteps, the dozens of mirrors hanging on the walls around the hall each reflected a figure belonging to that lady, but none of them moved in the same way.

next moment.

Bang——

In front of Aiwen who hesitated slightly, the arched door of the "Grand Library of Turin" was suddenly opened from the inside.

A beautiful lady quietly appeared behind the door, with delicate features like a carefully crafted doll, holding an ivory folding fan and nodded slightly to him:

"Mr. Unfamiliar Wizard, welcome to the Great Library managed by the Turin Witch Association. I am the administrator Anna Goldi. You can also call me by my wizard name: Kingfisher."

Ai Wen's heart moved.

"Witch?"
