The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 544 Moon Harbor

Moon Harbor is surrounded by a crescent-shaped mountain range.

Backed by green mountains and facing the sea.

Moon Harbor has no city walls; the mountains and the sea are the dividing line of the city.

The side of the mountain facing the sea has been developed into a series of residential areas.

The houses all have uniform red roofs, which are more eye-catching than rubies in the sunlight.

However, the most eye-catching feature is the red mage tower on the rocky island inside the harbor, and the bright, dazzling red jewel on top of the tower.

Moran once read in a book that the roofs of all the houses in Moon Harbor were made from the shells of the Wind-Fixing Red Shell, which were cut and polished. The mage tower of the Moon Harbor lord was completely covered with the shells of the hundred-year-old Wind-Fixing Red Shell, and there was a pearl made from the thousand-year-old Wind-Fixing Red Shell at the top of the tower.

It is because of these red tiles, seashells, and the jewel atop the mage tower that Moon Harbor has never been damaged by the sea since its construction.

All storms will eventually subside outside the harbor.

Legend has it that the Dingfeng Red Shell is the ruby ​​of the sea, and seeing it today, I can confirm that it truly lives up to its reputation.

With so many Wind-Stabilizing Red Shells, the love story between Lord Asandra of Moon Harbor and the mermaid prince Simmons must not be just a rumor, right?
Moran's face showed a gossipy expression.

It is said that decades ago, Moon Harbor was just an ordinary small fishing village, often battered by the waves.

At that time, Asandra was just a fisherman's child in a small fishing village.

Her parents went out to sea to fish, but encountered a storm and never returned. She waited day after day on the rocks by the sea, but instead of her parents returning, she saw the little mermaid prince Simmons playing on the shore.

Simmons helped her find her parents who were lost at sea, and she and Simmons became friends.

Later, Asander was found to have a high affinity for water elemental power and went to a mage training school in a nearby town. After that, she went to the mage tower in the Kingdom of Bognia to study magic and became a personal disciple of the King of Bognia.

From the time she became a mage apprentice, she began to participate in the nobility assessments, and finally became a viscount of a fiefdom at the junior mage stage.

When choosing her fief, she refused any formal viscountry and only asked her mentor for the bay where her hometown fishing village was located.

Other mages would stay in the mage tower in the royal capital as long as possible, trying to improve their magic rank. Only Asander, after receiving her fief, couldn't wait to return to her hometown to build up her territory, and only occasionally returned to the mage tower to advance her magic.

Later, Asandra's viscount fishing village became an earl's town, then a marquis's city, and finally the duke's Moon Harbor.

Many people say that Asandra returned to her hometown despite her own future for Prince Simmons.

Although Moonport is now a very wealthy duchy, it was once a poor, remote fishing village that was constantly battered by storms. Even mages didn't want to come to this godforsaken place.

Moreover, after Asander reached the peak level, she built her mage tower on a reef in the middle of the port.

It is said that on the night before the tower was built, many mermaids appeared near the reef island, which transformed a small reef into the reef island in the sea that is today.

The thousand-year-old wind-stabilizing pearl at the top of the tower was also a token of love given to her by the mermaid prince Simmons.

The mage tower was built on a rocky island so that Asandra could stay with Simmons.

The love story of Asandra and Simmons can be found in countless books about Moon Harbor, each with its own unique details. Moran often felt that the author had planted surveillance devices around Asandra and Simmons.

However, Grand Duchess Asander has never publicly responded to her relationship with Prince Simmons.

Whether it was true or not, Moran didn't know, but she did know that the Dingfeng Red Shell was a specialty of the deep sea of ​​mermaids.

Deep within the Mermaid Sea, storms rage year-round, preventing even the most exquisitely crafted magical ships of the dwarves from venturing deep into its depths.

In other words, the Wind-Stabilizing Red Shell is a specialty of the mermaid race. Only the mermaids who originally lived there could easily harvest so many Wind-Stabilizing Red Shells.

The Wind-Stabilizing Red Shell, which is rarely seen elsewhere, is everywhere here, which certainly indicates that the lord of Moon Harbor has a good relationship with the merfolk.

From the air, Moran had a panoramic view of Moon Harbor and even discovered some details he had never seen in the book before.

The location of the Asandra Mage Tower was well chosen. Together with the red shell buoys that divide the shipping lanes in the bay and the red-tiled houses on the shore, it forms a pseudo-natural magic circle with the effect of calming the wind and waves.

The concept of pseudo-natural magic circles was developed by mages from their research on natural magic circles.

The mages discovered that some places, lacking alchemical runes and rune circuits but containing specific magical materials, could influence elemental forces, creating an effect similar to an alchemical magic circle. They called such places natural magic circles.

A pseudo-natural magic circle is a magic circle artificially created by mages, imitating a natural magic circle.

Like natural magic circles, this type of magic circle does not require additional power and can draw energy from the environment. However, it has higher requirements for magical materials than ordinary magic circles.

Moran recognized the pseudo-natural magic circle in front of him, which had the effect of calming the waves, from the main tower of the Alchemy Department.

The magic book that records this pseudo-natural magic circle says that it was inspired by the windless area within the storm circle of the Mermaid Sea.

Judging from this pseudo-natural magic circle alone, Asander doesn't seem like a love-struck person who would go to great lengths to build a mage tower in the sea just to be with her lover.

The Mage Tower is the protective shield of the territory, but the sea is not a place where humans can set foot.

The mage tower of Asandra was built here, presumably to allow this pseudo-natural magic circle to protect the entire bay, not just the coastal area.

The people of Moon Harbor live off the ocean in front of them; the port is near the sea and is also part of Asandra's territory.

Moran lowered the broom handle slightly, reducing the flight altitude, and flew towards the seaside avenue while admiring the streets and alleys of Moon Harbor.

That was the most bustling street in the entire Moon Harbor, a perfect place for her, a first-time visitor, to broaden her horizons.

"Hello, Witch Knight!"

On the mountainside, in the attic of a two-story building, a little girl peeked out and excitedly waved to her.

Moran turned his head in surprise, meeting the little girl's bright eyes: "Me? The Witch Knight?"

Is this some new, trendy witch nickname?

The little girl nodded. "Witch Knight, could you please deliver this little cake to the red-haired boy in the attic at 29 Champagne Avenue? His name is Jack. But I don't have any money, so I can only give you a bag of my mom's bear-shaped cookies. Please!"
