Chapter 485: Chapter 290 The Land Abandoned by the World_1

The big pirates and Ivita’s fleet had established a strange balance. They all together robbed the Valji family, but with no communication and interaction, no proximity. After they had each used their abilities to rob others, they went their separate ways without any contradictions.

Instead, it was Governor Hilshivard who remained on the sea surface, watching Ivita’s fleet entering the Transfer Port with a complicated expression, unknown thoughts fluttering in his mind.

...

There was nothing exceptional about the place where Transfer Port moored ships. It was merely a natural coastline suitable for the berthing of vessels. After Ivita’s fleet entered the port, the port management officer did not charge them anything for docking, saving around 9 preludes of docking fees.

Transfer Port is situated on top of an artificial Great Wall, within it, there are many well-developed man-made canals. Ships can be transported to the other side of the Transfer Port through these canals, and these canals are not the only ones in the Transfer Port.

Beyond these man-made canals, there are many man-made lakes, so the entire Transfer Port is a place where land and water alternate.

Above this sea wall, there are many areas filled with water, quite magical indeed.

Ivita let his own Wilson stay with his five absolutely loyal warriors and two apprentice hunters, as well as their original sailors and the captured pirates on the ships. Meanwhile, he set off towards the Valji Family with a captain from the Valji family who was controlled by Davina, accompanied by Hearthstone Witch and Davina.

The streets of Transfer Port are very narrow. Perhaps because this dock is built on an ocean wall, land here is worth its weight in gold. The architecture here has obvious characteristics, as the buildings are mostly rectangular in shape.

The narrow streets are filled with shops selling items, presumably stolen goods.

The people residing within Transfer Port are not ordinary citizens, but pirates. Even common residents have a fierce look in their eyes and robust stature.

Even those who are small in stature are erratic and are probably thieves.

Ivita finally understood what troublesome people were.

Everyone here was rejected by the monarchs of the nations. They were criminals, thieves, prostitutes, and descendants of pirates. These people would only cause harm on the lands of those Lords, with absolutely no benefits.

Along the way, Ivita had met people who tried to deceive him more than once.

They took a few more steps forward.

A teenager, wearing cloth shoes and ragged clothes, was selling things at a stall by the street. He stared with his shining eyes as if he were an innocent soul. He saw Ivita, Hearthstone Witch, Davina, and the captive captain, and greeted them over, "Sirs, I am an apprentice to a certified wizard, and I specialize in fortune-telling. Would you like a fortune telling session? You definitely fear encountering some kind of typhoon weather when you go out to sea, but my fortune-telling session can definitely help you out..."

"A session of fortune-telling just costs 1 penny."

Ivita had a strange expression on his face. He noticed at one glance that this teenager was a regular person, not a sorcerer’s apprentice at all, let alone a second-tier certified wizard.

But as an ordinary person, what do you mean by stopping me and a fourth-tier advanced witch?

Even though fortune-telling is cheap. It was the kind of cheap service where you should not waste your time to go and settle the account with him even if you got cheated.

The Hearthstone Witch began to laugh creepily, she slapped the boy’s stand with her palm, frightening the boy into recoiling a little.

The Hearthstone Witch sneered, "Alright then, I’ll give you a penny for a fortune-telling session. But let’s get something clear first, if you fail at divination, I will take your right hand."

"Give me a divination!"

She slammed a penny onto the fraudulent boy’s stall, sending him into a moment of fear, yet he eventually found the courage to pretend again that he was genuinely a wizard’s apprentice.

"I, I will use the most successful form of divination on you, the... bone-casting method..." the deceptive boy suggested timidly.

As he reached for the penny on the table, a cruel jest flashed across the Hearthstone Witch’s eye.

At that moment, Ivita coughed and, seemingly indifferent, said to her, "The Valji family’s headquarters in Transfer Port should be devoid of any professionals, let alone high-level ones. So with you, a fourth-level high-ranked witch and me, a second-level wizard here, we should not encounter any major problems. Oh, yes, Davina is both a vampire and a first-level witch’s apprentice."

The boy’s color instantly drained, and he turned to look at the Hearthstone Witch and Ivita, quivering all over. Even a fool could tell who the cruelty and jest in the Hearthstone Witch’s face were directed at.

God, before him sat a fourth-level witch and a second-level wizard.

He had dared to deceive such wizards and witches.

"I can’t provide divination anymore, I am a fraud, I don’t want this stand. Please spare me..." he immediately turned around to race away, shaking all over, his legs weakened, writhing as he fled, like a flabby noddle.

Knowing that Ivita’s words were a subtle attempt to hold her back, the Hearthstone Witch didn’t chase him, her face full of regret.

The Hearthstone Witch said, "The boy has a hint of magical talent, but not much. He likely has been under the guidance of a wizard, but he was apparently abandoned. A formal wizard takes an apprentice with the aim to attain the ’teacher status’ and only through that way, can they become a great wizard."

"Thus, for a student who cannot even become a first-level wizard, they can be quite cruel. Especially the wizards on Cross Island."

The Hearthstone Witch said to Ivita, "Just now, the spiritual essence within that child was severely tainted. He will not live for more than half a year. It should be the ’achievement’ of his previous teacher."

Ivita nodded. "Discarding students after use does not match the title of ’teacher’."

The Hearthstone Witch was startled for a moment, then laughed, "That’s correct. There is a secret associated with this. When we have time, I will explain in detail to you the secrets of the promotion from the second-level to the third-level wizard."

After Ivita openly stated their professional ranks, everyone on the street, who had stalls, ceased their attempts to deceive them. Instead, they now skittishly avoided them, fearing the wizards would kill them on a whim.

In Ambros, at least on the surface, a professional couldn’t wantonly kill civilians, or they’d have to pay a large amount in compensation, even face death themselves if opponents found fault in their actions.

But in this lawless pirate world, professionals could kill whoever they wanted.

Just as Ivita and her group reached the end of the street, a team of individuals suddenly chased in from behind them. The bearded man leading them shouted, "Lord Ivita, please wait."

Ivita turned around and frowned. Were they some suicidal pirates?

Or members from the Valji family?

Upon noticing Ivita’s ill gaze, the bearded man immediately ordered the six pirates, who had the strength of a formal knight, behind him to stop. Then he said to Ivita, "Lord Ivita, I am a professional pirate quartermaster specialized in integrating robbed resources and unearthing the hidden assets of bankrupt families."

"I know that you defeated the Valji family today and are set to acquire their assets. Therefore, I thought you might need my team and me to integrate the Valji family’s assets, in order to protect and dig out their wealth as much as possible."
