Chapter 269: Go Home
The two Wizards stared at the crystal ball with their eyes wide open.
On the crystal ball were a few plots of land under the sea. The materials planted on them had obviously been tampered with by someone. It was obvious that they had been collected.
Wizard Ralph opened his mouth and said, “Coral area, fishing boat area, shellfish area. Oh my god, they didn’t even let go of the barren slope. Where did this thief come from? Is he crazy? How dare he touch the plantation of Deep Sea Kiss!”
Witch Sarah frowned and said, “Why did the defensive magic array not work at all? Where are the Mermaid guards? Where are they? They didn’t even report the invasion!”
Every plantation of Deep Sea Kiss had a defensive magic array and a large number of guards. It was because of this that Ralph and Sarah, who were forest guards, dared to go out and do things boldly. However, for some reason… None of the measures that were originally arranged actually worked…
Gulp! Gulp! Gulp! At this moment, a few bubbles rose from the bottom of the sea.
A turtle rose from the bottom of the sea, carrying a cloth bag on the turtle’s shell.
The two Wizards were stunned.
Ralph, the Wizard, took the bag and opened it. There were more than a dozen high-level Magic Stones inside.
This was what Heath had left behind before he left.
Although he had stayed here for more than a month without seeing any forest guards, Shipwreck Bay was not some wild resource land without a master. So after much consideration, Heath decided to follow the common law of Wizards. He left a Magic Stone bag here and converted the materials he had collected during this period into Magic Stones.
Of course, he did not convert the underwater ruins. He felt that the owner of the underwater ruins should not know about it.
“Oh, he paid for it, not a robber.” Seeing the Magic Stones, Ralph’s frown eased. Although it was a little offensive, it was indeed in line with the Wizard’s convention.
Witch Sarah frowned. “It’s too impolite.”
Ralph shrugged. “Relax. Other people didn’t wreak havoc. They only collected a small part of it and left enough Magic Stones. Maybe it’s for urgent use. This is in accordance with the rules.”
Sarah Thought for a moment and gradually relaxed her brows. She agreed with Ralph’s words after all.
However, at this moment, Sarah seemed to have suddenly discovered something. She looked at the crystal ball with a strange expression. “Strange, how can the number of Three-Tailed Fish be so low? I remember there should be almost two thousand of them before, right?”
Ralph said, “It can’t be. Look carefully again. There are 2,328 Three-Tailed Fish.”
Sarah raised her hand and fiddled with the crystal ball.
The crystal ball quickly changed its image. There were all kinds of fish on the bottom of the sea, but the Three-Tailed Fishes shown on it were few and far between.
The Three-Tailed Fishes could not be found, but the other discoveries made their faces change.
Other than the Three-Tailed Fish, the number of marine fish raised in the sea had decreased significantly. Three-Tailed Fish, Dragon-Scaled Crab, Black Pearl Shell…
There were less than one-tenth of the marine fish in the sea, and some of the species were only left with single digits.
The more she looked down, the uglier Sarah’s expression became.
She flew into a rage out of humiliation and threw the Magic Stone bag that she had just held in her hand far away. The more she looked at the Magic Stone bag, the more she felt that it was a humiliation.
Sarah said angrily, “What is this? An insult?”
It was one thing to plunder the sea creatures when they were not around, but to pretend to leave some Magic Stones behind? Other than humiliation, Sarah could not think of any other reason.
Actually, Sarah had completely wronged Heath here.
The real culprit in plundering the sea creatures was actually the Siren that Heath had encountered when he first arrived here. It was also the one who had destroyed the defensive measures here and gotten rid of the Mermaid guards. It was precisely because of this… Heath had entered this resource area without encountering any obstacles before and started collecting.
However, every time the Siren hunted, it would open a barrier and devour all the creatures inside the barrier, leaving no survivors at all. Therefore, at this time, Sarah and the others naturally could not find any clues.
In addition, Heath had coincidentally gathered materials here during this period of time. Naturally, he immediately became the prime suspect.
Ralph changed his previous relaxed look and said with a serious expression, “Now is not the time to be angry.”
“It’s better to quickly report the situation!”
If it was only a small amount of materials collected, it would be fine, but this was already brazen plunder. Losing so many materials at once was not something that the two forest guards could afford…
…
On the other side, at Golden Harbor Town, at the dock.
Click! With a soft sound, Heath stood steadily on the dock.
“We’re finally on shore!”
Although the Wizard ship’s balancing spell could make the people standing on it feel as if they were walking on flat ground, the narrow space could not be changed. Moreover, due to the consumption of Magic Stones… Most of the time, the Wizard Ship’s magic array was in a closed state. It swayed about every day, making Heath’s head feel a little dizzy.
At this moment, standing firmly on the land, looking at the bustling streets, the beautiful town ahead, and the undulating mountains in the distance, Heath felt very comfortable.
The ring on his hand flashed, and Nina’s figure appeared beside Heath. At this moment, she had changed back into the red dress she usually wore.
She stretched lazily and yawned. “Yawn! Are we going ashore?”
Heath said, “Yes, the journey is over.”
Nina said, “Oh! This journey was really a pleasant experience. When do we start the next journey?”
As a ghost, she had lost her human five senses. She could not taste delicious food, nor did she have any sense of touch. Now, the only thing that could make her feel happy was the comfort of traveling around.
Heath said, “In a few months.”
The harvest of this trip was far beyond what Heath had expected. He needed to spend some time to sort it out.
Especially the treasure chests in the ruins of Aramsted. When Heath counted them afterward, he also found a very interesting item.
Using this item could complete a spell that was already very rare for Wizards in this era.
With the help of this spell, the alchemy items Heath had made previously would have a lot of room for improvement. It could even be easier to form combat power in the future…
Thinking of this, Heath could not wait any longer. He wished that he could immediately fly back to the lighthouse to conduct magic experiments.
“Let’s go home!”
After saying this in high spirits, Heath walked briskly towards the town.
