Wizard: I can predict the future
Chapter 17: A show of force right from the start?
In less than ten minutes, the giant ship had sailed nearly twenty kilometers and arrived at the sea in front of the manor.
Looking at the giant ship in front of me, which was entirely dark black, over 400 meters long and 60-70 meters wide.
Nord was deeply shocked.
He had never seen such a large ship before; when it was close at hand, it felt like he was facing a mountain.
However, what surprised him most was that the ship did not make much noise while sailing.
But what is most shocking is that, unlike ordinary boats, it is not half-submerged in the sea.
As the giant ship got closer to the shore, it gradually rose to the surface and eventually lay flat against the sea.
At this moment, the entire harbor of the coastal city fell silent.
Whether they were slave traders in the port or soldiers and nobles in the city, they all stopped what they were doing and stared in awe at this enormous creature.
Outside the Kecourt Manor, Lilia appeared.
Everyone left the manor and followed Lilia toward the giant ship.
Iria followed beside Nord, staring at the giant ship before her, her face filled with shock.
"This is the ship of the mechanical floating island? How come it's so big?"
Nord did not answer; his gaze fell on the giant ship, and a thought arose in his mind.
This is the true creation of the wizarding world, seemingly a completely different world compared to the one on the continent of Leman.
When Nord followed Lilia to the beach, he suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness.
The next moment, Nord saw the ground getting farther and farther away.
He and the other wizard trainees were lifted up by an invisible force, slowly rising into the air and flying towards the giant ship.
Iria's breathing became noticeably more rapid, and she instinctively reached out and gripped Nord's arm tightly.
"Don't be nervous, the wizard is here, there will be no danger."
Nord offered a word of comfort to Iria while glancing at the others.
Like Iria, most of them were nervous about suddenly taking off for the first time. Fortunately, no one was afraid of heights and did not show any embarrassing behavior.
Soon, a group of people arrived on the deck of the giant ship.
Nord looked around and saw that there were many people surrounding him.
They either leaned against the railing or stood in twos and threes to the side, their eyes all fixed on this side.
Their expressions varied: some were curious, some were scrutinizing, and some even had an undisguised mockery.
Because Lilia was standing at the very front, although those people looked at her with unbridled arrogance, none of them dared to step forward.
Lilia turned around and looked at Nord and the others.
"The first and second floors of this ship are public areas, which will be your living quarters for the next few months."
"Vera, your residence is on the fifth floor. Nord, your residence is on the third floor."
"The others, those with first-class talents are on the second deck below the deck, and those with second- or third-class talents are on the first deck below the deck."
"Remember, you can't go up to decks seven through ten without permission!"
After he finished speaking, a man in the crowd, with an unusual expression, suddenly shouted:
"Lady Lilia, Nord is only a second-tier wizard, so what gives him the right to live on the deck?"
This man is named Aaron, and he has the talent of a third-class wizard.
Lilia merely glanced at him indifferently.
"What? Are you questioning me?"
Aaron felt the hairs on his body stand on end and instinctively shrank back.
"No... I wouldn't dare."
Seeing that no one had any objections, Lilia spoke again.
"Remember, here, as long as no one dies, don't bother me with anything else."
After saying that, he walked straight into the cabin and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Nord exchanged a few words with Evan and Iria, then headed towards the third floor alone.
However, just as he stepped into the cabin and was about to head to the second floor, three figures emerged from the side and blocked his way.
Upon seeing this, the people around stopped in their tracks, but no one stepped forward to stop them; they simply stood a short distance away and watched.
Clearly, this kind of thing is not uncommon on ships.
These three men were all extremely muscular, each over 1.8 meters tall, with bulging muscles, clearly not ordinary people.
But when they stood in front of Nord, they still seemed somewhat unable to suppress their aura.
Because Nord is nearly two meters tall, with a slender but not bulky physique, and his imposing presence is not overt, standing there quietly, he commands respect.
Nord looked at the three people blocking his way and felt a sense of helplessness.
"I've only just entered the wizarding world, and someone's already causing trouble."
"Do I look that easy to mess with?"
He glanced indifferently at the people opposite him a few times: "Gentlemen, is there something you need?"
The leader had dark skin and the most solid aura among the three.
He sized Nord up and down, his eyes filled with undisguised hostility.
"Kid, you can't go up here."
The man gave a cold laugh.
Why?
"Because the third deck of this ship is only for people with fourth-level wizarding talent."
"You, with only second-rate talent, dare to try and climb the ranks?"
Nord's eyes narrowed slightly.
Who are you?
The man in the lead grinned, a hint of smugness in his eyes.
"My name is Ron, the Great Knight."
He pointed to the two people beside him: "These two are Ryan and Hart."
"The three of us all possess fourth-tier wizarding talent."
As he said this, his tone clearly carried a hint of arrogance.
A fourth-class talent is already considered high-level among this batch of reserve soldiers.
The third floor area not only has a better environment, but more importantly, there are meditation rooms on the floors above the third floor.
Although they have not yet built a mental power model, they can calm their minds and achieve twice the results with half the effort by learning meditation techniques.
The meditation room is limited in size, and the number of people who can enter is also limited.
They've done this kind of thing many times before, they've just changed their excuse today.
If we can give them a warning and make them go up there, they won't dare to compete with us for the meditation room in the future.
Ron’s gaze returned to Nord.
"You've taken up a spot on the third floor, which means there's one less person with fourth-level talent who can go up."
"Do you think this is reasonable?"
The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere around them became subtly tense.
Although many people did not speak, their gazes toward Nord were more complex.
Clearly, many people agree with this rule.
Meanwhile, on the eighth floor.
As soon as Lilia came up, she saw a young man coming down from the ninth floor.
Upon seeing this, the other party immediately stepped forward to greet them.
"Lilia, I didn't expect it to be you on Leman Island. How was your trip?"
Lilia smiled with satisfaction.
"Not bad. This time we have one sixth-level talent, one third-level talent, and one second-level talent, and everyone has signed an agreement."
"Lucius, how about you over there?"
Upon hearing this, Lucius was taken aback at first, then his eyes widened dramatically.
"Sixth-tier talent?"
"My God, you've actually encountered a sixth-level talent reserve."
He couldn't help but click his tongue softly, his tone tinged with envy.
"There are only four sixth-level talents on the ship right now, so it looks like you can get a lot of academy points this time."
He shrugged as he said this.
"I wasn't so lucky. I only have a fourth-level talent reserve, so I'm barely breaking even."
After he finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly realize something.
A moment later, a cryptic smile appeared on his lips.
"Tsk... Interesting."
"Lilia, your second-tier talent reserve seems to be in some trouble."
He turned his head to look at Lilia, his tone slightly teasing.
"I remember that the third level is not usually prepared for second-class talents."
"You arranged for him to go up there; it seems he's prepared quite a few good things for you."
Lilia simply smiled upon hearing this.
"I didn't take anything from him."
Lucius raised an eyebrow, a half-smile playing on his lips.
"Oh?"
"They confiscated your things? Could it be that you've taken a liking to him?"
"But to be honest, that kid does look pretty handsome."
"What? Aren't you going to lend a hand to your little lover?"
Lilia shook her head slightly, a mysterious smile playing on her lips.
You're overthinking it.
"Let's watch a good show first."
