Job hunting in another world [Western Fantasy]

"Noah!"

As the storm approached, Aldrich's boat grew further and further away from Noah's, sometimes pushed together by the rough waters, only to be blown farther apart again.The storm whipped up huge waves, and what I saw in front of my eyes were only monstrous dark green waves, and Aldrich's voice was naturally drowned in the wind and waves.

A wave came and their boat capsized.Julian is more afraid of water than the real cat Evlia. After falling into the sea, he opened his eyes wide in horror and took a mouthful of the salty and bitter sea water. He struggled desperately with his hands and feet, but sank deeper and deeper. Fast, the sense of suffocation and the oppression of being squeezed by the sea filled him with fear.

Help!

Help--!

I don't want to die here!

The air in Julian's lungs was exhausted, he fell heavily, and suddenly, a hand grabbed him tightly.

Aldridge pulled Julian upriver, letting him float by holding on to a plank.Julian gripped the plank stiffly and spat out the sea water from his mouth.

"What about Noah and the others?" Julian asked. At this time, the other ships were completely invisible. In the storm, it seemed that there were only the two of them and this small board.

Aldridge shook his head, under such circumstances, there was no way to find other people.Julian looked around and climbed onto the plank with difficulty: "I really hate the sea now, until the next life..."

He checked his things, the staff was always in his hand, and the magic potions were well placed in the lining.

Julian breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw Aldrich suddenly patted the board, pushed his body back, and swam away from the board in another direction.

"What are you doing?! Dangerous!" Julian yelled in panic. He sat on the plank and saw Aldridge's body hidden in the waves, sweating coldly from fright.

All kinds of magic flashed across his mind. Julian raised his head and drank a bottle of induction potion, and then used an instant wind blow to forcefully suppress the storm around Aldrich.At that moment, a very strange scene appeared on the violent undulating sea. Aldrich was surrounded by violent wind and huge waves, only where Julian's staff was pointing, calm as a mirror.

Aldrich seized the opportunity to pounce forward and firmly grasped the book floating on the sea.

The Holy Book of Light.

He bit the "Sacred Book of Light" in his mouth, and immediately turned back to Julian.Julian firmly grasped the wooden board, stretched out his long staff, and let Aldrich climb up the wooden board along the staff.

After climbing up, Aldrich immediately put the "Holy Scripture of Light" in his arms to avoid being soaked by sea water.

"You scared me to death!" Julian said loudly, "You ran into the sea just because of that book! The waves are so big, if you are not careful, you will be swallowed!"

He took a heavy breath, God knows how scared he was just now, if Aldridge was gone, how would he explain to Noah.

"Noah's book." Aldridge said, "He always has it with him."

Julian rolled his eyes: "But compared to this book, of course you are more important to him! My God, if he knows this..." He imagined the scene of Noah's anger, and couldn't help but fight I shivered.

Aldridge said quickly, "Then don't let him know."

Julian was dumbfounded, and after a while, he scratched his hair: "For the sake of saving my life... well, what shall we do now? Noah and the others are gone, and Evelia, She's still a cat."

"Evelia and Noah will be fine together." Aldridge said, "Let's get through the storm first, and we'll go find him when the wind stops."

Julian froze for a moment, and murmured, "Are they really all right?"

He looked at the storm in front of him, the sea seemed to be roaring at them, and the huge waves and dark clouds that covered the sky hovered above their heads.

And they only have a piece of wood, if it is any ordinary person, I am afraid it will be difficult to survive.

"He'll be fine." Aldrich hugged the book in his arms tightly and said word by word: "We'll wait for the storm to pass."

The storm died down the next day, the sky was a clear blue, and the sea calmed down, carrying the plank like a mother tenderly holding a child.

Aldrich first opened the "Book of Light" and looked at it. The pages of the book were slightly wrinkled, but the lines on it were not affected at all. Presumably Noah must have done waterproof treatment.

Julian drank another bottle of sensory potion, stunned a piece of fish with the chain lightning technique, and then caught the fish with the hands of a mage. His use of magic is definitely proficient, if it is not for the shortcoming of the sensory force If so, maybe his name is among the great magisters resounding throughout Redras Continent.

Aldridge's sword was long gone, and Julian gave him a short knife to peel the fish.

"You and Noah are actually quite alike." Aldrich said with a smile as he skillfully peeled and sliced ​​the fish, "For example, they both like to carry short knives with them."

"Of course a magician should carry a short knife with him." Julian squeezed the fish fillet and stuffed it directly into the mouth: "Hey, this fish is quite delicious."

The entrance is extremely smooth, without any extra thorns, and without the slightest fishy smell, the taste is excellent.

"I'll save some for Noah later. He has never eaten such a delicious fish, and Evelia must also like it." Julian said, "Okay, what should we do now?"

"Didn't you detect a small island before? Let's go there. Noah and the others must be going there as much as possible."

"You know him too well." Julian muttered. He stood up and searched the ground with magic again. Countless streamers flew from his staff to the surroundings. After a long time, Julian put down the staff: "I We found it, and the only land was the previous island. But we were blown too far by the wind and waves."

He gestured with his hands: "We were very close to that island before, but now it's so far away, but I have a way to get there quickly..."

Julian looked at Aldrich, and Aldrich looked back at him blankly: "What way?"

"Floating technique." Julian said wearily: "I use floating technique to reduce the weight of the boat. As long as we can control the direction, the speed will be very fast. Maybe we will get to the island earlier than them."

If Noah was here, he would definitely understand how good his ideas are and how strong his strength is.No one cheered, and Julian didn't have the heart to cheer himself up.

Aldridge looked at him instead: "Are you not seasick?"

"Even the boat is gone." Julian smiled wryly, "I can't get sea sick."

……

Julian found that he was really sea-sick!

After confirming the direction, Julian maintained the levitation technique, while Aldridge controlled the direction with his huge staff.They were maintaining a relatively steady speed, but on the way, they saw a white light suddenly rising from the small island.The light was like the sun, and Aldridge stood up instantly, grinning uncontrollably, and said to Julian, "It must be Noah, they are indeed on the island!"

Julian had to pick up speed under his eager, expectant gaze.

They were going faster and faster, the wind and the waves racing across his face and hair, and Julian lay sprawled on the plank, eyes staring, pale and sick to his stomach.

too fast--!

Julian wanted to call out, but he had tried his best to maintain the levitation technique, and he was afraid that he would spit it out if he spoke again.

They didn't finally hit the ground until they rushed to the sand and the plank slammed hard against a raised rock and Julian and Aldrich fell sideways.

"I will never go into the sea again." Julian knelt on the beach and stood up after a long while, but his eyes were still shaking. He always felt that he was still in the sea, and he couldn't stand firmly no matter how he stood.

Aldrich had already picked up the fish. He looked up at the sky and said, "The Holy Light technique Noah cast on the island just now means that they landed on the island before us. Let's take a rest first and replenish our strength before we go to the island." Go find them, and if you can't find them, search along the coast first, and then find a place to sleep at night."

After arriving on the island, he seemed less eager to find Noah.They did not sleep or eat well for two whole days.Julian collapsed to the ground and found himself so weak that he couldn't even stand up.

Aldrich had roughly observed the surrounding situation during this time, and he said to Julian: "You light a fire here to dry your clothes, and I'll go and have a look."

Julian said feebly, "What about you?"

After Aldrich finished speaking, he had already walked away, and Julian sighed, as expected he was still in a hurry.

He slowed down for a while, and went to the shore to collect wood. The soil here is very dry and rich in species. Julian found several different types of trees as soon as he saw them, and there were also branches that were very suitable for firewood.Unlike Noah, he has been running around alone all year round, and he is very good at surviving in the wild—obviously, he has never been to the beach.

Julian started a fire in a place where the sea water couldn't roll up. It was too easy for a magician. He went to the beach and charged a batch of fish, caught them with the magician's hand, moved a stone slab and put it on the fire. On the slate the fish was cooked.

He even made a simple wooden bowl with the wood and short knife in his hand, and put the water summoned by magic into the wooden bowl-his hands are very dexterous, after all, they are a pair of hands that make magic potions, and he pays attention to the details Control, there is no one more rigorous than him.

Aldridge came back soon, sat down to drink water, and then preached to Julian: "This island is very big, and one side cannot be walked in a day. I walked along the coastline for a long time, but I didn't see it. From their tracks, it appears that they were washed across the island."

"If only we had some way of notifying him, too," said Julian.

He looked at the fire, and the smoke that rose faintly in the air quickly dissipated.

Aldrich went on to say: "Tomorrow, I'll look in another direction. The right side of the island is a cliff, and the left side is a flat forest. The overall trend is high on the right and low on the left. I know the direction of the cliff." look."
