Chapter 848: Chapter 684, The Function of Teleportation Technique Chapter 848: Chapter 684, The Function of Teleportation Technique “Teleportation Technique” in the Mage Faction belongs to the Curse Magic Faction.
Yet, it also contains knowledge about formation rituals.
This point was quite similar to his own “Awakening Souls.”
It required mana to drive the formation to achieve the ultimate skill effect.
Then, Wu Heng steadied himself again and began to focus on the content of the Skill Book.
The destination must be in the same plane.
That is to say, one cannot teleport from this world to another–a fact Wu Heng found unsurprising.
If one could truly traverse planes, the Skill Book wouldn't simply be borrowed with a pen.
Next, it mentioned several requirements and examples of teleportation destinations.
The first type is the location within sight, meeting the teleportation requirements; this type almost never fails.
This is the method the veteran mage “Gianvito” used to teleport between several ships.
Seeing the location and clearly knowing where one wants to go makes direct teleportation possible.
The second type is locations one is familiar with and visits often; these teleportations have a higher success rate but may experience deviations or dangers.
The last type is even more exaggerated, referring to places heard from others' descriptions or seen in books and patterns.
Teleportation is still possible, but the deviations could be greater, perhaps even transporting oneself to a very dangerous location.
Though it won't send you out of this world, traps and hazardous terrains
are enough to claim a mage's life.
The largest documented deviation was 120 kilometers.
And that's only what has been recorded; the actual figure might be higher.
“Darn it!”
“Indeed, high-level skills are never simple.”
When he first witnessed “Gianvito” using this skill, he thought it simply transferred between two places.
Now, reading the descriptions and examples in the book, the capabilities of Teleportation Technique cover a broader range.
It was even stated that seeing an image could allow one to teleport to the corresponding location.
“Can I go back to the Island Lord's Mansion anytime I want?”
Teleportation is faster than the Phantom Train, and since he was certainly familiar with Island Lord's Mansion, according to the skill's description, he seemed to be able to return at any time.
“No!”
“If it was that easy to teleport, Gianvito wouldn't be sticking to ships.”
The last time Gold and Silver Island was besieged by pirates, Gianvito led a team for support by ship.
And when they left, it was also by ship.
If this skill was really effective, Gianvito could have teleported directly to a specific location.
Even if he wasn't familiar with Gold and Silver Island, wasn't he familiar with his own home?
There must still be some hidden dangers.
Next time he saw “Gianvito,” he should also inquire about it.
He continued to flip through the Skill Book, with the subsequent content about spell knowledge and application.
It was recorded in great detail, with some small annotations left by people who had read the book before.
Wu Heng read it page by page, grasping the general idea in his mind.
When he finished the last page, a system prompt appeared beside his ear.
“Unlocked skill: Teleportation Technique.”
It was unlocked.
He glanced at Glenda, who was still reading nearby.
He was glad to have this ability; otherwise, he'd have to spend as much time as Glenda learning the skill.
He closed the book and stored it in the Space Ring, then took out a prepared water bottle and took a sip.
His gaze returned to Glenda, who was still intently reading.
Feeling his stare, she also looked up, “Did you finish? Did you learn it?”
Glenda knew the secret of learning a skill in one reading.
They were together every day; it was no use trying to hide it.
“I learned it, but there are many limitations in using it; I need to experiment more when I have the chance,” Wu Heng said calmly.
Glenda hesitated, then looked again at the book floating before her, “Are you sure I can learn?”
“Yes, be confident,” Wu Heng replied with certainty.
“Or maybe you could tell me?” Glenda said as she placed the book on the table Wu Heng had just used for reading.
Wu Heng looked at her. “I wouldn't know how to explain this stuff.”
“Alright, I'll take a look myself.”
While they were talking, Xiao Xiao and Bella flew back.
“Uncle, the fleet is fine, not a single one is missing.”
“How about that ship at headquarters?” Wu Heng asked.
“Me and Sister Bella just looked from a distance. Didn't you say there were some high-level professionals there, and you didn't let us go over?” Xiao Xiao said.
“Right, it's better they don't discover you.” Wu Heng nodded.
Xiao Xiao then said, “Uncle, give me the tablet, Bella and I want to watch a movie.”
Wu Heng took out the tablet. “Go over there and watch, and don't disturb your Aunt Glenda reading.”
“Okay, no disturbance.”
Xiao Xiao and Bella flew off to the side, and Wu Heng also walked out of the cabin.
…
After stepping out onto the deck, Wu Heng checked around.
Standing on the deck and feeling the sea breeze, Philippa rode back on a flying dragon from the cargo ship.
She yawned and said, “There's nothing urgent over there. Shall we go rest? I got up too early today.”
“Let's go, we'll rest too.” Wu Heng led her towards the rest area.
Philippa took out the prepared bedding and laid it on the floor.
“You lie down here… Today, I'll be the knight,” Philippa said as she let Wu Heng lie on the floor.
“Weren't you tired?” Wu Heng curiously asked.
Philippa, bracing herself against his chest, climbed to his waist. “A little exercise before sleep, just tell me if you can't cope.”
“Go ahead.” Wu Heng steadied her waist.
Philippa began to gently sway her hips.
Soon, her breathing became rapid, and she slumped onto his chest.
Wu Heng pulled the blanket over them.
Philippa whispered, “I want to get Millicent a bigger tavern. The current one is too small and a bit out of the way.”
Indeed, the location of Conch Tavern was a bit remote.
At the time of purchase, Wu Heng was still a vice-executive and had bought it through the city hall, also choosing it for gathering information.
Now things were different. Wu Heng had become the Island Master, Philippa was the captain of the island's fleet, and she herself lived in the tavern.
It had essentially become branded, exclusively Philippa's property.
Naturally, there wasn't much information to gather anymore, it was fully run as one of Millicent's taverns.
“Let Wei'er pick a better place for you in the new development area,” Wu Heng said with a smile.
Philippa pouted and playfully said, “You talk to her, Wei'er always listens to you.”
“Alright, I'll speak for you when we return.”
“Thanks, Daddy!” Philippa immediately flashed a smile, sticking out her tongue and lightly licked his chest.
As the sky gradually darkened, they had indeed gotten up early today.
Soon, both of them fell into a deep sleep.
…
The next day, early morning.
Wu Heng woke up early. The ship was swaying, making it hard to sleep soundly.
The two got dressed and left the cabin.
Philippa issued tasks to the skeletons, and Wu Heng went to the cockpit, taking out some blueprints to look at.
7:00 AM.
Right after breakfast, a crackle of static came from the cockpit radio.
Then Millicent's voice came through, “This is Island Lord's Mansion, calling the Gold and Silver Island fleet.”
Millicent had sent a message.
Wu Heng stood up and went to the radio, picking up the handset, “Millicent, it's Wu Heng, what's going on?”
Millicent's voice was cheerful, “Master, up so early, huh?”
“The ship's rocking, not sleeping well.”
“It will be better once you're ashore,” Millicent said, then continued, “Master, I have a message from Steward Xi Ligui to inform you that the Fifth Princess of Yeko Kingdom and her maid have disappeared, suspected to have mixed into the fleet.”
