Chapter 745: 237. Squeezing Dread Sail_3
Hadley’s magic yacht, at this moment, was anchored 800 meters away from the magic mechanical ship on the sea surface.
Noland Lee swam from underwater to the magic yacht, joining Hadley and Vipa who were waiting for him.
Vipa, the newly-born merfolk baby, had not been exposed to any magic other than the deep-sea spells.
She was curious about the black light columns that streaked across the night sky,
As soon as Noland Lee entered the cabin, she started questioning him incessantly.
“Ya ya ya? Ya…ya ya… (What spell did you just use? Such a strange magical power… It made me feel a little scared…)”
It was right to be scared.
No living creature was unafraid of death energy; this was an instinctive response deeply ingrained in their bodies.
Noland Lee picked up the Notebook and briefly introduced death energy to Vipa. Then he turned to Hadley and said,
“This Lost Sea Fog will last for a maximum of five hours. Let’s wait for the fog to clear before we leave. By that time, we will escort the criminals to the Sea Platform with the Sea Patrol Team, and then we will return to the Suman Archipelago.”
“All right, Jarvis.”
Hadley held up both hands in approval to Noland Lee’s suggestion.
The brief but intense battle earlier had completely subjugated him.
He knew very well what it meant to have a nearly half-meter-thick Death Ray; it was the high-level death spell, Death Two Finger.
“There’s still some time before daybreak; you two rest, and I’ll stay awake. Three hours later, Hadley will replace me,” Noland Lee said.
Hadley had no objection and turned to enter his room.
Noland Lee wrote the same sentences in characters and showed them to Vipa.
Vipa glanced at it, thought for half a second, and shook her head, saying,
“Ya ya, ya ya ya. (I’ll stay awake instead, merfolk don’t really need to sleep.)”
Noland Lee raised an eyebrow and didn’t refuse. He put away the Notebook and entered his own guestroom.
Hadley activated the Invisibility Magic Array of the Magic Yacht when the Lost Sea Fog descended.
The ship was in an invisible state, and the Protective Array on the outer armor was also activated.
With Vipa on guard, there should be no trouble tonight.
After closing the door to his room, Noland Lee was in no hurry to meditate.
He took the Magic Stone from his Magic Pouch and placed it on the table to observe.
He launched a Deconstruction Technique, and Noland Lee slightly lifted the corner of his mouth, a little helpless.
There was only 1 point of mana generated in the Magic Stone, and the speed of the magic theft was genuinely touching.
System Feedback Message showed that in the next 24 hours, Noland Lee was estimated to steal 60 points of Deep Sea Magic Power and store them in the Magic Stone.
That was the effect of three “Magic thefts” working simultaneously.
If there were only one “Magic theft” in effect, the resulting yield wouldn’t be enough to fill the gaps in his teeth.
“It seems like I still need to find another way to convert Soul Strength into Deep Sea Magic Power…”
Noland Lee couldn’t help but complain in his mind,
“This ‘Magic Theft’ is really a bit weak. I was so excited when I took it from the Magic Chain of the Teleportation Array…”
In the end, it was because there were too few targets to steal from.
If there were hundreds of deep-sea wizards available for Noland Lee to steal from, the yield of “Magic theft” would definitely be explosive.
Keep in mind that the Magic Pattern for stealing and outputting “Magic Theft” only requires 1 point of Soul Strength and 1 point of Energy Points, respectively.
The cost of maintaining the existence of the magic pattern is 0.1 points of Soul Strength and 1 point of Energy per day.
As long as the magic pattern isn’t scattered by Noland Lee, the “Magic Theft” will always be in effect.
This means that by using 0.1 points of Soul Strength, he can steadily obtain 20 points of magic power per day—a 1:200 conversion rate.
If Noland Lee were less conscientious, he could easily spread the “Magic Theft” magic pattern throughout the Deep Sea Branch.
After all, no one, including Selena, could detect the location of the magic pattern.
But a person’s moral standard is reflected in what they do in the darkness.
Noland Lee had his own bottom line; he wouldn’t extend his “magic claws” towards the wizards on his side.
But if he has a chance to sneak into Burdensome Isle, Noland Lee doesn’t mind placing a “Magic Theft” magic pattern on every Dread Sail wizard and squeezing them dry.
“Dong dong dong…”
The slight knocking on the door brought Noland Lee back to his senses.
He put away the Magic Stone on the table, and used “Mage’s Hand” to open the door.
The pink little merfolk, Vipa, sat on a floating seashell, curiously looking at the empty table,
“Ya ya ya, ya ya, ya? (I just felt the presence of Deep Sea Magic Power, I thought there was an enemy, how did it disappear so suddenly?)”
