155 Fish Market
Roy easily bought some fresh Blue Mackerel at the Fish Market, where he lived by the sea. Many stall owners at the Fish Market were impressed by this Half-Elf boy who looked like a human, and people greeted him warmly wherever he went.
Instructor Nora covered her mouth and nose with a silk scarf, but even that couldn't block out the fishy smell emanating from the fish basket.
She is Silver Moon Elf who usually eats fruit and rarely eats fish.
Walking into the Fish Market felt extremely uncomfortable.
Moreover, her attire was somewhat out of place in the Fish Market; she wore leather armor and carried Battle Shortbow and longsword, making her look more like a sailor who had run off Great Sea Ship.
Roy considered running home to fry the Blue Mackerel...
Passing by a fish stall, I saw it filled with fresh, red fish meat, all of which was the fattest and most succulent tuna.
The elves who frequently buy fish know that to get the freshest tuna at the Castleton Harbour Fish Market, you have to look for Ms. Jillian ...
Roy stopped in front of the fish stall and greeted Ms. Jillian.
Ms. Jillian held a sharp fish-cutting knife in her hand, and the butcher's block was piled high with large chunks of fish. She looked up, tucked the knife into the leather sheath at her waist, and casually said, "Oh, it's Roy! Did you receive the letter Belinda sent?"
"Not yet..."
"Don't worry, the postman might be standing at your doorstep tomorrow morning."
Ms. Jillian spoke, she used a cleaver to Bone Blade a large tuna tail, deftly tied it with a rope, handed it to Roy, and said to him, "Belinda doesn't like fish, so I usually don't give you any scraps of tuna. This tail is great whether you fry or grill it, here you go..."
Roy wanted to refuse, but Ms. Jillian forcibly shoved the fish tail into Roy's hand.
Some medium-sized fishing boats were moored at the edge of the Shallow Water Pier...
The fishing boat that went out to sea to catch tuna was a medium-sized fishing boat.
This type of medium-sized fishing boat is not a shuttle-shaped speedboat like the Flying Fish Boat, but consists of a large shuttle-shaped boat in the middle and a small shuttle-shaped boat on each side.
Three fishing boats were connected together by three horizontal bars, forming a very stable fishing boat.
Only the large ship in the middle has sails.
The small boats on either side allow the fishing boat to navigate smoothly on the sea.
This is much larger than the Flying Fish Boat. The main hull in the middle has cabins for people to sleep in, as well as cabins for carrying fish. The small boats on both sides do not have empty cabins, but the small boats are hollow inside and have strong buoyancy.
These fishing boats can go to slightly more distant waters to fish for tuna.
These are fishing boats that the Naga Sea Clan generally approve of, and they rarely attack them.
Captain Relf sneaked to the port under the cover of night.
Relf was a Gray Dwarf, sturdy and strong, but only up to the chest of the Silver Moon Elf. This unusual physique made it inconvenient for him to appear in front of the elves, so he almost always swam across the way.
Although Madam Yidula is a Blood Elf, if you don't look into her eyes, she is almost indistinguishable from Silver Moon Elf.
So she wore a long black robe and covered her face with a hood, and no one noticed her as she walked on the dock.
In fact, Madam Yidula did not want to risk approaching the harbor, which was not only Elf Ranger, but also recently had some troops stationed there.
She wanted to persuade Captain Relf to take refuge in the Malaga Jungle in the north, but Captain Relf did not want to leave the sea and was eager to hijack a ship to leave Castleton Harbour.
So, one of them was in the sea, and the other was on the shore, as they entered Castleton Harbour under the cover of night.
The Great Sea Ship at the Deep Water Pier were heavily guarded, and Captain Relf was not powerful enough to hijack such large ships.
There were many fishing boats at the shallow pier, but Captain Relf didn't seem to like them.
He wanted to build a slightly larger medium-sized vessel that could withstand storms at sea. As he approached the Shallow Water Pier, he emerged from the sea and immediately spotted the medium-sized fishing boat at the edge of the dock.
The ship was quietly moored on the edge of the water; if he could seize it, he wouldn't even need to navigate the narrow alleyways, he could simply rush into the sea...
In Captain Relf's eyes, this medium-sized fishing boat was practically made just for him.
However, since Captain Relf was going to sail out to sea, fresh water and food were essential.
Madam Yidula wanted to buy some seafood and freshwater at the Fish Market, and of course, it would be best if she could also buy some fruit.
There are usually fruit vendors at the entrance of the Fish Market, but that's during the day. There are very few fruit stalls at the Fish Market at night. However, with the voyage about to begin, Madam Yidula wanted to look carefully for some.
A row of fish stalls stood before her, and the pungent smell of fish made her instinctively pull up her veil.
Several Half-Elf carried a shark weighing several hundred pounds off the boat, blocking the only passage. Madam Yidula could only hide in the gap between the fish stalls on the left to avoid getting her clothes stained with the shark's blood.
But just then, a sea breeze blew in from the sea...
Madam Yidula faced the fishing boat, the sea breeze blowing open her hood and revealing a head of dark red hair.
The stall owners around the area cried out in surprise when they saw that splash of bright red.
Some even pointed at Madam Yidula's veiled face and screamed in alarm, "My God, it's Blood Elf!"
As soon as the sound rang out, even more eyes turned to her.
Standing next to the fish stall, Instructor Nora watched Roy carrying a Blue Mackerel in one hand and a huge tuna tail in the other, and really wanted to discuss with him what was so delicious about these fish.
However, since this was Fish Market, Instructor Nora refrained from asking any questions.
Then she heard an elf exclaim in surprise from not far away, "Oh my god! It's Blood Elf..."
Her gaze followed the sound and she saw a strand of dark red hair fluttering in the night.
The Blood Elf realized her identity had been exposed and quickly covered her head with her hood, but the surrounding Half-Elf all stood up and surrounded her.
Instructor Nora reacted even faster, squeezing through without hesitation.
At that moment, Madam Yidula realized something was wrong. Seeing so many Half-Elf surrounding her, she had no choice but to pull out a staff engraved with lightning runes from her Magic Pouch.
With a short incantation uttered...
Suddenly, a huge silver magic circle appeared on Madam Yidula's chest, and the magic circle lit up brightly.
Electric Arc of Electric Arc crackled from the staff in her hand, spreading outwards like fish swimming in water.
In a brief moment, twelve Electric Arc shot out from the staff.
These Electric Arc encountered the charging Half-Elf and instantly knocked them to the ground, filling the air with a burnt smell.
The Half-Elf who charged forward fell one after another.
Without hesitation, Madam Yidula pulled out a Magic Signal Flare and let it bloom in the air, sending a warning to Captain Relf.
Then Madam Yidula took out a staff from her Magic Pouch. As she swung the staff, an Arcane Missile flew out, instantly knocking away a Half-Elf was blocking her way, who then fled...
When Instructor Nora saw the arc of Electric Arc scattering, she could make out Madam Yidula's beautiful face in the incandescent light. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she wore a cruel smile, like a black rose blooming in blood.
"Yudora ..."
Instructor Nora drew her longsword and lunged at Madam Yidula.
Her figure almost left a blur in the darkness.
The longsword in his hand was also flipped upwards, aiming at Madam Yidula's jaw...
Instructor Nora happened to be standing in front of Madam Yidula, completely blocking her escape route.
Madam Yidula was forced to stop, pointing her staff at Instructor Nora. Without warning, an Arcane Missile flew from the staff, appearing in front of Instructor Nora's chest with lightning speed before exploding.
'boom'
The violent magical aura distorted the space around Instructor Nora, and even caused small cracks to appear in some areas.
Instructor Nora felt as if she had been struck hard in the chest by the No. 8 sledgehammer. Although her leather armor absorbed a lot of the impact, the violent impact still made her stagger back a few steps.
The pain was so intense that I could hardly breathe.
Madam Yidula waved her wand again, and another missile hurtled towards Instructor Nora.
Instructor Nora felt dizzy and saw that there was almost no way to avoid the missile in front of her.
Just then, Roy quickly emerged from behind Instructor Nora, a Wooden Shield draped over his arm. Roy held the Wooden Shield above his head, crossed his arms behind it, and assumed a lunge Wooden Shield.
The Arcane Missile struck the Wooden Shield.
The missile then exploded, and the Wooden Shield instantly turned into countless pieces of wood. Roy, who was blown into the air, crashed hard into Instructor Nora.
By this time, Instructor Nora had caught her breath and supported Roy's back with one hand to give him some cushioning.
With his other hand concealing the longsword behind his back, he darted away from Roy, the longsword in his hand once again swirling towards Yudora's neck.
Madam Yidula was terrified and her face changed drastically. She knew in her heart that as long as the elven swordsman in front of her charged up and engaged in close combat, it would be the end for her.
So Madam Yidula reached into her pouch again, pulled out a Magic Scroll, and quickly tore it open.
With a short incantation, the Magic Rune Array lit up, and then a magical light shield enveloped Madam Yidula's body.
The Arcane Missile stored in her staff were all used up. As she chanted incantations, she drew a Magic Rune Array...
He planned to unleash another Arcane Missile to repel Instructor Nora, then use the Magic Broom escape.
However, even though Instructor Nora clearly saw that she was casting a spell, she still refused to back down. Her longsword, imbued with a trace of Wind Element energy, slashed fiercely at the light barrier surrounding Madam Yidula's body.
A slight ripple appeared on the light shield, but it did not break.
At that moment, Madam Yidula's Arcane Missile materialized again, and one of Arcane Missile flew out from the wand and struck Instructor Nora in the chest.
'boom'
Instructor Nora was sent flying by the Arcane Missile, crashing heavily onto the fish stall, sending the fish flying everywhere.
