Chapter 407: Ghost Ship

Gui Bin got off the bus. As one of the representatives of China, he had personally led the Chinese people invited by the school of magic to Scotland.

Yo! Gui-san!

A middle-aged man in a suit and tie with a mustache brightened up when he saw Gui Bin and quickly came over.

Gui Bin heard the familiar Japanese accent and turned to look at the person addressing him. Squinting, he made out the walking figure of Oshima, the head of supernatural events in Japan.

Since they had knowledge that supernatural forces were influenced by culture, the secret departments of three countries namely China, Japan, and South Korea had been in close contact with each other. They often met to report on work, resulting in everyone knowing the members of the other countrys secret departments.

However, China and Japan had been more deeply involved due to the emergence of supernatural events from both countries. South Korea was in a more awkward position. There was also the United States of Americas garrison that China and Japan treat in a vague manner.

The Indian Peninsula had also been affected by this. Asian culture was deeply influenced by Buddhism, but who would have thought that the origin of Buddhism did not have many Buddhists? Instead, it was a country that believed mainly in Hinduism. As a result, it was more isolated from the surrounding countries.

Oshima-Kun, long time no see.

Seeing the visitor, Gui Bin, who had gained enough experience, hurriedly went over with a smile and shook hands eagerly. In the past, if they could remove the USA's influence over Japan, China would be more than satisfied.

This was something previously unimaginable for the Chinese government, but who would have thought that many things were solved with the emergence of supernatural beings?

Are these the people who received the invitation letter from your country?

Gui Bin saw the people gathering behind Oshima. There was a young high school girl, an office worker with tired eyes, some excited college teenagers, and so on and so forth. Their nervous yet expectant expressions were just like the many ordinary people who came here.

Yes! Gui-san, these are the people chosen by fate in our country. They will carry the heavy responsibility and make their contribution to the world!

Looking at Oshimas excited chanting, the corner of Gui Bins mouth twitched as he thought that Japanese people had a great imagination.

It was said that their emperor was so shaken by the prevalence of supernatural events that he had brought up the idea of abdicating to the crown prince.

Thinking like this, Gui Bin also looked at the people on his side. Because of Chinas population problems, China was able to obtain slightly more invitations in this random selection, but only slightly more, and without any overwhelming advantage.

These ordinary people who were brought in were only those who took the initiative to contact the Dragon Group. There were also rich people like Su Wei who came to Scotland alone and ended up being caught.

Recently, the Scottish authorities were strictly controlling the seas, so even the rich people who came alone could not rent a boat to go to the mysterious island by themselves. In the end, they had to take the initiative to report and join the group.

This was equivalent to a self-trip turning into a group tour.

Gui Bin and Oshima were casually chatting together, mainly about supernatural events. Then their eyes looked at another place where many black and white people were gathering.

Thats the head of the European and American countries over there, right?

Gui Bin asked.

Yeah, the one over there is the head of S.H.I.E.L.D., I met him before in Tokyo. The other one should be the chief of Englands military intelligence department. Im not sure of their name, but the agents are apparently called by code names just like in James Bond movies.

Oshima, who had been a junior on the American side, had contact with all these people in the past, so he explained their backgrounds to Gui Bin.

That cute little girl is Princess Charlotte of Englands royal family. It is said that Archmage Marches was going to take her as a disciple after eating the golden apple. Im sure she will receive special treatment.

Oshima gazed at the cute blonde girl and said enviously.

Towards grasping magic and other mysterious powers, whether young or old, everyone had such fantasies before. In Oshimas opinion, Princess Charlotte, who was born a royal princess and also gained the approval of an Archmage, was simply as lucky as those protagonists in novels.

Gui Bin patted Oshimas shoulder and did not say anything as he was in fact also quite envious.

But how come I dont see many Arabs?

Gui Bin scanned around the area and only found that there were surprisingly only a few Arabs here. It was surprising that the Muslim countries did not send anyone.

The people of those countries think that magic is blasphemy to their faith, so people who went to seek help from the state were rejected. Only a few people who had both the capabilities and a strong belief in magic managed to make it here.

Oshima and Gui Bin looked at each other and let out a snicker.

Even though China and Japan were not culturally compatible with magic but faced with the so-called wizards and witches, their respective governments still expressed strong support.

In this day and age, whoever could master mystical knowledge first would gain a head start. Let alone their own culture, as long as they could encounter an opportunity, no one would give up.

Theyre about to gather. Lets go over.

At this time, an announcement sounded on the pier as a ship was docking. Oshima and Gui Bin returned to their respective gathering places and had a comforting talk with those who were chosen before they boarded the ship in order.

There were less than two hundred people on board with men and women and children and adults, but overall, there were no people over 25 years of age and Princess Charlotte who was not even one year old was the youngest.

From the age distribution alone, researchers concluded that perhaps the age limit for learning magic was around twenty-five years old.

The ship gradually left the dock, and those onboard, in addition to those who received invitations were soldiers from various countries. All the selected people were holding envelopes in their hands while whispering words and exchanging words to ease their nervousness.

After the ship left, the personnel from various countries did not remain idle. They quickly mobilized satellite imaging to watch that patch of sea. They could see one ship approaching the mysterious island that wasnt really big.

The island was on the high seas, and as the ships approached, everyone was tense.

Suddenly someone shouted in panic, Not good. Just now the weather bureau sent a message. A storm is about to set in!

A storm? How could this happen? The weather bureau had said that today would be calm?!

Our systems are extremely accurate! How could this be happening?!

The storm this time is very big, and its formation speed was beyond imagination. All of the people on that ship are in danger. We should have them come back quickly! Someone shouted.

No, we cant let them come back. Heading to the island is the first priority!

......

Just as the officials were arguing, the ship in the sea moved towards the frightening waves. The sky was covered with dense dark clouds and lightning and thunder. Huge waves would strike the ship, making it seem as if it was about to capsize at any moment. The gale blew to wet the deck as the modern steel ship looked so powerless in front of nature.

Many people in the cabin cried out, and some began to vomit. Faced with this apocalyptic scenery, even the soldiers went pale, let alone ordinary civilians.

Could this be a test to travel to that island?

As people who were invited to the island, they believed in the existence of magic. Someone immediately raised this idea which was quickly accepted by the majority.

Thus, no matter how big the waves were or how much the boat swayed, no one raised the idea of going back and everyone tried to hold on.

Why is the storm here so strange? Its forming far too fast!

The captain's room was busy. In the face of such frightening waves, the ships crew paled.

Look, everyone! What is that!!!

Suddenly, a soldier exclaimed, he pointed to the captains rooms glass window. In that storm, under the large fury of the waves, a large wooden ship appeared like a ghost in the darkness of the rainstorm.

No matter how horrible the fury of the waves and wind were, they could not reach it at all. All forces of nature passed by it, as if a sea monster lay in the mists.

That is that ship really made of wood?

In this kind of terrifying storm, any wooden ship would definitely be instantly torn apart, but that ship is unharmed!

It's... its not walking on water, but floating in the air!

No, take a look closely!!! Those winds and waves directly passed through the ship. Its not floating in the air at all, but simply it doesnt exist in this world!

Ghost ship, void ship, and many other conjectures appeared in the minds of the people.

With the approach of the ship, the crowd could see that a few people wearing mage robes stood on the deck of the ship.
