Chapter 320 Wind-Swept Harbor, Going Out Late at Night
"Windbreak Harbor, the closest large gathering area to us."
"The controlling force of the harbor is called Windbreak Fortress, which was originally a third-rate guild in the Western Continent."
"After entering the Sea of No Points, the area where it is located is very fortunate to have the unique output of [Wind Stone], which can calm sea storms. It has grown rapidly and is now considered to be second-tier."
"Rumor has it that the manager of Windbreak Harbor is preparing to break into the Legendary ranks during this settlement period."
"legend?"
Inside the medicinal bath, Xiao Yun opened his eyes, somewhat puzzled: "Is it so easy to advance to Legendary status? Besides needing a score of one million, don't you also need your deeds to spread and be recognized by at least one hundred thousand people?"
As Jing Feiwan poured the medicine into the bucket, she said, "When I left last time, I heard that due to the spiritual storms caused by the development of the spirit world, disasters on the Sea of No Return were becoming more frequent, and the [Wind Breath Stone] was becoming even more scarce. That guy probably wanted to use this to gain both fame and fortune."
Xiao Yun understood instantly.
"He's a shrewd guy, but if he does this, things will probably get a bit unsettled at Windbreak Harbor, won't they?"
"Um."
Jing Feiwan gave a casual reply, then focused intently on manipulating the robotic arm to pour the concentrated blood of the King-level sea monster into the bucket.
The moment the bright red blood entered, bubbles appeared on the surface of the medicine, as if it were boiling.
As the temperature slowly rises, the vitality detected by the testing instruments also continues to surge.
"hiss-"
A violent life force surged through his body like a fire dragon, and Xiao Yun couldn't help but gasp: "This medicinal bath is potent!"
Jing Feiwan frowned slightly, staring intently at the testing instrument.
She only breathed a sigh of relief when the fluctuations in her life force gradually stabilized.
Looking at Xiao Yun, who was covered in sweat and looked like a cooked shrimp in the bucket, she said irritably, "The auxiliary materials weren't enough to suppress the violent life force in the King-level blood. It's good that you didn't burst."
As she spoke, she poked Xiao Yun's head hard: "If you're in such a hurry to recover, you might as well obediently lie on the operating table. I'll just cut open the flesh and inject the King-level blood directly into it. The effect will be much better."
Xiao Yun's lips twitched slightly: "Is it possible that I'm only in danger, but what you're doing could really kill me?"
Jing Feiwan remained silent, simply watching him with worry and a hint of warning in her eyes.
Soon, Xiao Yun gave up, raising his hands with a wry smile: "I was just trying to have more self-preservation skills. I promise I won't be so eager for quick success next time."
"Once we arrive at Windbreak Harbor and purchase the resources we need, we will proceed towards the ideal world while steadily making preparations."
Jing Feiwan's expression relaxed, and she nodded slightly: "That would be for the best."
After saying that, she stood up and walked outside.
"Klatu and Eric have caught another King-level sea monster. I'm going to gather the materials. You can digest it yourself at your own pace."
"OK."
Xiao Yun made a gesture and watched her leave.
boom-
The laboratory door slowly closed, and the relaxation on Xiao Yun's face gradually disappeared.
He understood Jing Feiwan's concern, but given the current situation, it was difficult for him to slow down.
Whether it's the strength that hasn't been fully recovered, the pursuers close behind, or the various potential dangers in the Sea of No Points, all require sufficient hard power.
In addition, when learning about the situation of the Sea of No Points in the past two days, Jing Feiwan was very open about everything else, but when it came to the current situation of the Ideal Country, he changed the subject.
"It's probably not that they were wiped out, but rather that some rather delicate situation arose, which is why she was unwilling to tell me."
Xiao Yun's eyes flickered, but he didn't think about it deeply.
Concern can cloud judgment; no matter what happens, restoring our strength should be our top priority.
The Blood Sacrifice Technique operates on its own, absorbing the life force from the blood of a King-level being to strengthen itself.
On the panel, Strength, Agility, and Constitution are increasing rapidly, but the advancement in rank is extremely slow.
Time passed slowly, the temperature in the room gradually dropped, and the thick blood vapor in the bucket gradually thinned out.
"call----"
Xiao Yun slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, and when he opened his eyes again, the medicinal liquid in the bucket had turned into murky sewage.
After glancing at his personal panel, Xiao Yun nodded slightly.
"After absorbing the life force from the blood of four king-level sea monsters, my strength, agility, and physical attributes almost doubled."
"However, the rank remains unchanged, stuck at the top of the eighth sequence, unable to return to the seventh sequence."
Xiao Yun shook his head helplessly and sighed, "As expected, we still need resources to repair the wounds to the soul."
After several days of experimentation, Xiao Yun has discovered the root cause of his problem.
Soul trauma occurs because the body cannot bear the full power of life and death.
"Before my soul is repaired, even if I absorb life force, it can only make my physical body stronger, but it cannot restore my rank."
"According to Wanwan, there are about two weeks left until the settlement. She will leave 100,000 points and try to see if she can repair her soul by advancing to the second profession."
Xiao Yun recalled that the soul trauma he suffered from self-destructing his clone during his last battle with the Child of Death's clone was resolved using this method.
However, he is not prepared to place all his hopes on this method. After all, the last time it was only slightly damaged, and even without upgrading to repair it, it could heal itself after a couple of days of rest. This situation is different.
"Hopefully I can get some good stuff at Windbreak Port."
Just as he was pondering, Jing Feiwan pushed open the door and walked in, a hint of joy in her eyes.
"We were lucky. Besides a king-level sea monster, the vortex also sucked up some pearl oysters rich in life force, which can be used as auxiliary materials for the medicinal bath."
Xiao Yun smiled and said, "It's all thanks to you, Captain."
Jing Feiwan glanced at him but didn't point it out.
The flight routes were all booked by someone personally; there was no luck involved.
but----
These small, insignificant surprises did bring a bit of liveliness to the otherwise dull voyage.
The night wind over the Sea of No Points remains chilly.
But whether it was just his imagination or not, Jing Feiwan felt that the weather had been much warmer these past few days.
Hmm, it's also possible that Xiao Yun has been taking medicinal baths every day these past few days, causing the temperature on the [Mirror] to be too high.
The voyage thus came to an end.
On the evening of the fifth day after leaving Blackstone Harbor, a magnificent island came into view.
According to Xiao Yun's estimation, just in terms of area alone, the Windrise Harbor in front of him was more than ten times larger than the Blackstone Shipyard.
Night has fallen, and lights are on in every household in the harbor. Small boats still come and go in the waterways that crisscross the city, making it resemble a famous water city on Earth.
The port berths were filled with all sorts of ships, from simple and classic three-masted sailing ships to steamships billowing thick smoke. Xiao Yun even saw some ships that appeared to be powered by magic.
Terra's dazzling night sky stood like a crystal curtain in the background, adding a layer of mystery to this extraordinary harbor.
"Not bad, it finally feels like a civilized society."
Standing on the dock, Xiao Yun felt like an explorer stepping into a new continent during the Age of Exploration, wishing he could immediately take his dog and hunting rifle to explore this new area.
However, Jing Feiwan coldly interrupted his interest: "It's late. I'll take you to the harbor tomorrow. Stay put tonight and don't wander off."
"Oh, I see. Just like my mom."
Xiao Yun pursed his lips.
Jing Feiwan kicked him in the butt, then coldly looked at Eric beside her: "You stay put tonight too. If you dare to go in and mess around, and bring any disease to my ship, I'll chop your head off."
Eric shuddered, the burning desire in his eyes instantly vanishing: "Don't worry, Mistress, I am chaste and would never do such a thing."
Jing Feiwan narrowed her eyes: "You'd better be."
After saying that, she kicked Xiao Yun again, then turned and went back into the house.
On the deck, the two men exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.
As night fell, the harbor gradually quieted down.
At one point, on the bow of the ship, a mirror shimmered in the moonlight.
A figure, completely covered up, appeared silently at the dock and quickly left.
Shortly after that figure left, light footsteps echoed from the cabin and hold of the [Mirror].
Two furtive figures appeared on the deck and exchanged a glance.
"Keep your voice down, don't let her hear you."
"Don't worry, my lord. I added double the amount of sleeping pills to the mistress's meal tonight."
"Um—it's a bit inappropriate, but well done, Eric!"
"It is my duty to share the burdens of my lord."
The two smiled at each other, stepped onto the dock, boarded a small boat, and quickly disappeared into the waterway.
Below the mirror, a huge head peeks out, its horizontal pupils filled with resentment.
They're all such a handful for the octopus.
