Captain Jack of Azeroth

Azsuna, Oceanus Caverns.

Frog looked at the Black Pearl in front of him with a gloomy face, "Jack, don't disturb our peaceful life anymore!"

Jack said sadly: "Frog, what you said hurts my heart. We are friends, and our friendship has been witnessed by the Naga. Without me, could you rescue those sea giants? Without me, would Farondis form an alliance with you..."

"Stop, stop, stop -"

Frog looked at this guy speechlessly. What Jack said was indeed true, but he paid a price for it. This bastard was clearly playing rogue, but he just couldn't win the argument. He could still beat him, but he still had to consider Prince Farodis's thoughts.

What could Prince Farondis think? He is still helping Jack decipher the runes!

Frog felt very tired, so he took the sea giant into the deep sea, so that he could out of sight and out of mind.

Jack, who had usurped the magpie's nest, had no shame at all. Frog was so annoyed by him that he had opened a waterway between the sea cave and the sea, so that the Black Pearl could sail in by itself without Frog having to do anything.

Frog was afraid that he would not be able to control his anger and tear the Black Pearl into pieces.

The transformation of the Black Pearl was not a one- or two-day thing. The armor alone took ten days, not to mention the complicated pedal propeller device that needed to be made.

Fortunately, Nedro and the goblins had taught some of the crew the basics of engineering, and with the addition of the craftsmen, there were almost more than twenty people who could do the work.

Half a month later, the modified Black Pearl was finally launched. The crew used their leg strength to drive the propeller through the gears, which greatly reduced the amount of effort required.

"It's much easier than paddling."

"It's just that my legs were a bit useless at the beginning."

"That's good. Doesn't paddling also hurt your arms?"

Although it has some shortcomings, it is indeed much more advanced than a paddle.

After entering the sea and testing for a day to make sure there were no problems, Jack asked Nedro to lead the crew to salvage the sunken ship. He went to Narsaras to meet Farondis.

"Hasn't the code been deciphered yet?"

Jack was surprised. "There are so many mages in Nar'thalas, but they can't decipher a few runes?"

Farondis said angrily, "How many runes are those? That's 1125, more than we have deciphered. It took us hundreds of years to decipher 726 runes. In the past two years, we have deciphered 348 runes. That's already fast!"

Jack said speechlessly: "It will take hundreds of years. I will be dead in hundreds of years."

Farondis said unhappily: "If you are fine, leave now and don't get in the way here."

Jack immediately smiled and took out a notebook, "Don't be angry! I'm here to give you some knowledge, right?"

"What knowledge?" Farondis looked at the notebook with caution, obviously not trusting Jack.

Jack opened the book and said, "What are you looking at? It's covered with runes. Take a good look. Can I lie to you?"

Farondis rolled his eyes at him and said, "If I believe you again, I'll be a dog!"

Jack boasted, "This is a rune of magic engineering, which you have never come into contact with. If it weren't for me, with my shallow knowledge of magic, I would definitely study it myself. I have already written the research direction here, and you just need to study it according to the requirements above..."

Farondis turned around decisively, leaving Jack talking nonstop. "Hey! Where are you going?" Jack hurriedly chased after him, "Are you still my brother?"

Farondis looked at him speechlessly, "Jack, if you really want to wait a hundred years before getting Titanstrike, then keep this book."

When Jack heard this, he immediately put the notebook away and said, "Brother, don't do this!"

"We are already very busy. The mages of Nar'thalas are busy helping you decipher the runes. And yet you still come to make trouble? You really don't want us to help you, right?"

"No!" Jack laughed, "Don't I trust you?"

Farondis sneered, "You're just lazy."

"We have also studied magic engineering, but for us who own the Well of Eternity, magic engineering does not have much advantage. Therefore, as early as ten thousand years ago, we gave up this subject. However, there are still some records in the library. You can find Andress and ask her to help you copy a copy."

Andris, the librarian of Nar'thalas.

Jack's eyes lit up and he immediately said goodbye to Farodis.

Looking at Jack's hurried background, Farondis couldn't help but sigh, "I don't know whether it is right or wrong to choose him as an ally."

Originally, Farondis had planned to stop contacting Jack after the cooperation was completed. However, when exploring Azsuna, he discovered that there was a special group of elves living in the north of Azsuna. They called themselves the Children of the Night. These Children of the Night originally lived in Suramar, but left there for some reason.

It was at that time that Farondis learned that there were still a large number of elves living in Suramar. Unfortunately, these elves were living in misery. Grand Magister Elisande controlled the shield and decided who could leave and who could enter. All elves had to live under Elisande's reign of terror, which was obviously something Farondis did not want to see.

Farondis once wanted to attack Suramar together with the sea giants, but the mages of Nar'thalas are all souls, and it takes a long time for their mana to recover.

The sea giants are indeed very strong, but they are far behind in terms of intelligence.

Therefore, Farondis needed a smart ally. So he chose Jack, a cunning pirate, who was the most suitable candidate.

However, Jack's current strength is still very weak and he needs time to strengthen himself. Titan Strike is a good method, so Farondis agreed to help Jack decipher the runes.

As a result, before Jack's cunning schemes were used on Suramar, they were first used on him and Frog, making them both miserable.

Fortunately, Jack's request was not excessive, and apart from being a little annoying, he could also gain some benefits. Jack could get Titanstrike, and Narsaras also got new runes, which could be said to be a win-win situation.

Jack didn't know what Farodis was thinking, so he told Andris what Farodis said after he found her. Andris readily agreed, found dozens of books on magic engineering in the library, copied them all, and gave them to Jack.

Jack happily put the books into the magic package and kept thanking Andress.

Andress waved her hands and asked Jack to leave. She was really afraid that Jack would take a fancy to the books in the library and eat them all.

Jack didn't care. These dozens of books were already a huge gain. No matter which world it was, knowledge was the most important. Even if he was offered the treasure of a sunken ship, he would not trade it.

He had plenty of treasure from shipwrecks, but he didn't have the knowledge from dozens of books.

Just like that, Jack happily set out on the journey to the Blue Wings' habitat.
