Volume 4 Chapter 118 - Transformation of Caraska Island (1/2)
Volume 4 With the new effectiveness of the Wind Magic Engine and the large scale Water Magic Array’s support, the Unfolding Wings ship could reach a speed of thirty kilometers an hour, which was a speed of over fifteen knots.
Although there was a big difference from the open sea boats of earth, the magic research facility had plenty of space for improvement when it came to the Wind Magic Engines. Also there had been accumulation with the study of the Fire Magic Engines, so it was very likely it wouldn’t take long to develop it and the power would be increased again.
The most important thing was that they were using Water Magic Arrays at the bottom of the Magic Ships, which also reduced the water resistance. The large scale Water Magic Array being put at the bottom of the Magic Boat was still in its preliminary development. Once it was further developed or other Water Magic Arrays were used with it, the Magic Boat’s speed would be increased without a doubt.
Xu Yi was confident that the speed of the Magic Boats would catch up to the ships from earth or even surpass it.
Because when comparing it, using large scale Water Magic Arrays was something that earth didn’t have.
With the help of the Water Magic Array, the Magic Boat was influenced by currents much less. It made it less impacted by storms on the sea and it also made it much safer. It became as stable as walking on land, there weren’t any jolts at all.
The Unfolding Wing sailed so smoothly that it even made captain Narvil feel a bit bored.
He was born by the sea and went fishing with his parents since he was young, he had almost lived his entire life on the sea. He was already used to the dangerous and exciting life on the sea, but now that it was very calm controlling the Unfolding Wings Ship, he couldn’t get used to it.
Other than him, most of the crew had been recruited from Great Magician Telucci’s hometown of Caraska Island, most of them had lived on the sea since they were young.
When they were on the Unfolding Wings, it was completely different from the experience of the wooden boats they were used to.
Comparing it, when they were on the Unfolding Wings, it was much too calm.
Of course, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce could provide them with excitement.
The small Magic Speed Boats only pursued speed. Although they had the Magic Water Arrays, it was mainly used for increasing the speed, it was far from being as stable as the Unfolding Wings.
The newest small Magic Speed Boats could even reach over fifty kilometers an hour. With its build that was much smaller, when it charged across the ocean at high speeds, it might even fly up when it encountered waves.
This was several times more exciting than the Unfolding Wings, so when the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s crew had time, they would all ride the small Magic Speed Boats for this excitement.
And Great Magician Camilla liked this activity very much as well.
When he was free, Great Magician Camilla would ride the small Magic Speed Boats when he wasn’t racing cars.
No matter how one looked at it, he wasn’t like an old man who was already past sixty years old, he was more like a young person that chased excitement.
When thinking about Great Magician Camilla’s surprising hobby, Xu Yi couldn’t help muttering in his heart, “Could it be that after becoming a Great Magician, not only would your body become younger from the magic, but also your mentality?”
But every time he saw Great Magician Telucci, Xu YI remembered that Great Magician Camilla was a special case.
The Unfolding Wings sailed for over four hours before finally landing at the port at Caraska Island before dark.
When he came down, Great Magician Telucci and Caraska Island’s Lord Smilton came forward.
“Chairman Xu, welcome to the Caraska Islands again.” Smilton gave Xu Yi a big hug with a wide smile.
Caraska Island was known as an island of pirates, so Smilton as the lord was dubbed “the pirate king” by many people.
But when facing Xu Yi, this rough looking man was very friendly. He would always have his big smile and even the long scars on his face didn’t seem that fierce.
Xu Yi returned the hug and said with a smile, “Lord Smilton, I’ve come to bother you again.”
Smilton broke out in laughter, “I welcome chairman Xu’s bothers. Everyone on the island welcomes it and they all hope that chairman Xu can come bother us more.”
Xu Yi revealed a faint smile. He thought that whenever he arrived at Caraska Island, he always brought many benefits, so of course they would all welcome him.
After coming in contact with the Caraska Island through Great Magician Telucci, before Xu Yi even arrived at Caraska Island, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce had sent goods worth a hundred thousand gold coins to Caraska Island.
When Xu Yi came to Caraska Island for the first time, other than bringing various household magic machines worth over fifty thousand gold coins, after a detailed inspection of the island, he decided to build two factories and a mine here.
The two factories were a cement factory and a small steel factory and the mine was considered a pleasant surprise.
