Ethan’s Fantasy Drift

Chapter 68 Core Magic Stone

The speed of the small boat on the sea is not very fast. The undulating waves severely affected the speed and direction of the advance. Ethan waited on the boat for a long time before the small boat rowed near the Aurora.

Putting down the rope ladder, Ethan stood on the deck and waited for the ‘messenger’ to board the ship.

When the distance was close enough to see the situation of both sides clearly, the only woman standing on the boat raised her hands to indicate that she did not carry a weapon, which was a show of her sincerity.

In order to show his sincerity, Ethan also took off the saber from his waist and handed it to Arthur who was standing on the poop. He will not accompany Ethan, and will continue to stay where he is staring at each other’s ship.

“Hello, welcome to board the Aurora.”

Only three people came up, and two others remained in the boat below.

Leading is a tall and beautiful woman. She has beautiful brown hair and should be more than 1.7 meters tall. She wears low-heeled leather boots and is about the same height as Ethan. Maybe because of long years of wandering at sea, the skin color is not fair. Approximately twenty-four or five years old, she is in the best period of a woman, but this age is still very young among adventurers.

The close-fitting underwear perfectly showed her figure. This woman is not the kind of slender and thin type, but the type that can see the body is full of strength at a glance, but it is not as sharp as the muscular monster, and still has soft lines; it shows the sharpness from time to time. With sharp eyes, this woman is like a female beast, beautiful and full of danger.

Similarly, the woman opposite is also looking at Ethan. In the eyes of this woman, Ethan looks very ordinary, just like many young people. The appearance is ordinary, and the body is a little thin, and there is nothing special at all. It is impossible to imagine that this is a strong man who can fight Brent head-on.

“Hello, Ethan of the Aurora, I am Helena, the captain of the Vengeance.”

Ethan nodded. He didn’t do anything like shaking hands. People living in this world have great vigilance with each other. Reckless actions can cause unnecessary misunderstandings. He doesn’t entrap them when negotiating with strangers. Weapons are enough to show goodwill.

“Then, Helena of the Queen’s Vengeance, what did you do when you came to my ship?”

cut directly to the topic, as the captain Helena will come to see herself personally, there must be something important to talk about. The environment at this time is also not suitable for two people’s endless circle of temptations, as early as possible can we make the right decision as soon as possible.

Maybe it was Ethan’s direct that Helena admired, this woman showed some admiration, and then she clarified her intention.

“I want to cooperate with you.”

“Cooperation?”

Ethan has thought about the possible purpose of this woman, which of course also includes a temporary alliance. But in this case, is this woman going to board that island?

“You want to go to the island?”

This time Helena was not only admired. When Ethan asked, her brows twitched, and then there was a feeling of ‘It’s not as ordinary as it seems’. Ethan had such a reaction, and he was worthy of that strong strength.

“Yes, I want to go to the island.”

Ethan frowned: “How much do you know about this island?” He didn’t believe that this woman didn’t know anything about this island. If she really didn’t know anything about it and wanted to go to the island, she would follow that ship before. The boat rushed past together. I won’t wait so long before I come to talk to myself about cooperation.

“Not many, I only know that this island is dangerous, but it also has huge benefits.” Helena has no hidden meaning, and is very frank: “If it goes well, I will only take one thing, and everything else will be yours. all.”

Helena’s conditions are quite generous, but Ethan is not cold about it. He is not a stupid person. Compared to the huge benefits that belong to himself and others except for something, he cares more about Helena’s willingness to take a huge risk and at the same time abandon most of the items at the expense of what he gets in return. s things?

“I think it’s better to make everything clear. If the thing you want happens to be what we need, something unpleasant may happen.”

Ethan’s words made the two women behind Helena frowned, seeming to be upset by Ethan’s words. Instead, Helena didn’t care much.

“I’m not sure yet, I need to see to know if it is.”

“So, what do you want?”

Helena pondered, as if she was judging or not. Ethan waited quietly, he was not in a hurry, he was still assessing the risk of going to the island.

“I suspect that there are core-level magic stones on this island.”

“Core level? Magic stone?”

Ethan was stunned, he didn’t expect to get such an answer at all.

Of course he knows what a magic stone is. It is also known that magic stones can be used as energy sources for items of different levels according to their quality.

For example, some low-quality magic stones can only be used as consumable energy for some daily necessities. They have a short service life and provide limited magic output. Once the output energy is increased, they will be completely destroyed. This is also the easiest magic stone to find in the calm sea, and it is also the most common magic stone.

The better ones are the medium and high-quality magic stones. The magic stones of this grade cover a wider range, and the slightly lower ones can be used as energy sources for larger daily necessities. There are several items in Ethan’s current Aurora. A medium-quality magic stone is used as a’battery’ to supply energy.

High-quality magic stones are relatively rare. This level of magic stones can already be used as equipment items, which can provide a huge increase in combat power. For example, the name of the hand of flame is obtained from a glove inlaid with fire magic stones. .

In addition, Ethan also learned from the database on State Island that the division of magic stones is not so simple. In fact, the so-called high school and low quality refer to the magic stones on the calm sea. These magic stones are in The guild’s database is divided into low-level magic stones.

“Core level? Are you sure?”

Helena shook her head: “I’m not sure, but the situation on this island…I think there is a greater possibility of core-level magic stones.”

The core level is not a grade division of magic stones, it should be regarded as a division of functions. He had seen some equipment using core-level magic stones as energy sources in the shipyard before, so he had a more intuitive understanding.

The so-called core level means that the magic power storage and output have reached a certain level, which can be used as the main energy source for long-term use. The biggest feature is stability and resistance to damage.

Since low-grade magic stones are difficult to use as core-level magic stones, the core-level magic stones in this sea area also represent higher-quality magic stones. In theory, it is difficult to find this grade of magic stones in a calm sea. Even the magic stone used by the hand of flame can’t be called the core level, and can only barely get close.

It can be said that the core-level magic stone is what Ethan originally thought, and it can be used as the fundamental energy body of magic stone technology. The magic stones that Ethan had come into contact with before were so different.

The only exception is the white magic stone in Ethan’s hand. He didn’t know this information before, and then he came into contact with the guild’s records before he began to suspect that this piece of his own is most likely a core-level magic stone. Even if it is not, it should be a high-quality magic stone with a similar quality.

It is a pity that he can no longer judge, Merlin’s magical attainments are too high, and the mystery in the Book of Inheritance far exceeds Ethan’s current level, and he can’t judge how much magic stone plays in it.

He thinks that this magic stone may not be at the core level. Even if he is lucky, he won’t be so good. Unexpectedly, he really found the trace of the core-level magic stone so quickly.

“The value of the core magic stone is much higher than that of other materials. I don’t think there is any benefit to this transaction?”

Ethan thought for a while and gave his own answer.

“If you agree to share the core-level magic stone, then there is a basis for cooperation…Of course if there is such a magic stone.”

Helena frowned. Ethan’s reaction was not like a young man at all. She even suspected that the young man in front of him was really under twenty years old? Isn’t the face tender and deliberately pretending to be young?

“How is it? How are you thinking about it?”

Ethan is also a little tempted, if Helena disagrees, he is going to search the island alone. Even if the other party does not give up, the big deal is to compete together.

This situation is obviously not what Helena wants to see. This woman seems to be very jealous of Ethan and doesn’t want a conflict. So after struggling for a while, she gave her final offer.

“If it is a core-level magic stone, I hope you can give it to me. I can use various additional materials to compensate for the gap. This is my last condition. If you don’t agree, we’ll do our best.”

Ethan thought for a while, nodded in agreement. He doesn’t have much desire for the so-called core-class magic stone. On the contrary, he has greater requirements for materials. He needs to build a new ship exclusively for himself. The current Aurora is only suitable for calm seas, not to mention new seas. , Relying on this ship to hit the storm sea is completely seeking a dead end.

“So, what are you going to do next?”

“Go directly to the island, we are the only people on our side to go.”

Ethan raised his eyebrows. This situation means that the island is either very safe or very dangerous! Yu Guang glanced at the expressions of the two men, and then contacted the situation previously observed, it was obviously the latter.

“What a…unqualified captain…”

shook his head secretly, not commenting on other people’s choices, Ethan also made arrangements: “I will accompany you alone, and the big ship will not move. We will land in a small boat.”
