Chapter 589: 190. Teleport anomaly

After leaving Selena’s study room, Noland Lee and Denise Green went back to their room.

Denise had already become somewhat numb to Noland Lee’s sudden display of “Omniscient” ability.

She couldn’t remember how many times she had discovered extraordinary things about him.

From the beginning of his Undead Magic, magic scroll crafting, handmade magic wand crafting, to psychic magic, soul-shaping magic, and so on, the series of changes since the two met had gradually made Denise get used to Noland Lee’s extraordinary abilities.

Even if Noland Lee used Holy Rank Spells, Denise wouldn’t feel it was too strange. Instead, she would feel a sense of relief as if he was expected to know that Magic Spell, just like a stone hanging in her heart has fallen.

So when Denise returned to her room, she became calm and composed, putting away the money bag that Noland Lee handed over, and stayed in the room obediently and cleverly.

Noland Lee went to look for Mabel and Kalandi after settling down the thoughtful companion witch on the middle deck of the other cabins.

He thought they would both be stubborn and unwilling to leave through the Teleportation Gate in order to save gold coins.

But the fact proved that Noland Lee had some misunderstandings.

Without his persuasion, Mabel and Kalandi were already preparing to teleport away.

When Noland Lee found Mabel, the wealthy lady was discussing with Paredes, the captain of the Enforcement Wizard team.

The two sides quickly reached an agreement.

Mabel paid 350,000 gold coins for seven teleportations to the Ulnas Circle.

After opening the Teleportation Gate, Paredes took Mabel and her six students back to the Pure Light Court headquarters set up in the Capital Starlight City of Ulnas Circle.

350,000 gold coins!

This number shocked Noland Lee, who was overwhelmed once again by Mabel’s extravagance.

After they reached an agreement with Paredes, Noland Lee and Mabel had a brief chat, and only then did he learn why she decided to teleport away so decisively.

“My research task in Union City was rated at 60 points, right? But that score is only provisional at the moment. One of my research projects is to cultivate local people in Union City into wizards. I have to take Philia, Betty Davis, and the other four wizard students safely to Ulnas Circle to actually get a solid score of 60 points.”

Mabel touched her deflated money bag at her waist and sighed at Noland Lee with a slightly worried expression:

“Alas, I had to bleed a lot to keep this 60 points score. Fortunately, Hotams will give me some compensation money…”

“Compensation money?” Noland Lee asked.

Mabel showed the back of her ticket:

“Yeah, that’s right. On the back of the two tickets I bought for you, there are a few small lines. It says, ‘If an accident occurs, please negotiate compensation money with Hotams’. You can use the tickets to ask Hotams for compensation money. The amount is uncertain, it depends on your eloquence. But at least the fare will be refunded.”

With Mabel’s reminder, Noland Lee remembered that matter.

Seeing Hotams and the Metal Branch’s reputation, the passengers were willing to pay for the tickets and enjoy the amenities on the magic ship. Now, after the magic ship’s accident, Hotams must appease the passengers and spend a lot of money to handle the situation properly.

For those wizards who run shops on the magic ship for a long time, their compensation will be much higher than that of the passengers.

Noland Lee found out this when he found Kalandi.

Kalandi was also preparing to teleport away. Unlike Mabel, Kalandi’s teleportation fee is fully reimbursed by Hotams.

Not only that, after she arrives at the Hotams headquarters in Starlight City, she will enjoy the treatment of being personally received by the Dean of the Nature Branch along with a long list of discussions related to compensation.

“The device I use to purify potions and concentrate liquids couldn’t be taken off the magic ship. When the accident happened, that set of devices was working. In the same situation was the automatic dilution concentrated liquid device, the ecological cultivation tank for cultivating magic herbs on the ship, the magic freezer for sealing magic elixirs…”

Kalandi had her reading glasses perched on her nose and held a notebook and pen in her hand.

While complaining, she recounted her losses to Noland Lee, and took out the items she was carrying in her magic pouch to check them one by one, making sure nothing was left on the magic ship.

The whole room was filled with various bottles and jars, leaving no room for her feet.

She complained that she had lost at least 620,000 gold coins worth of magic potions, elixirs, equipment, and magic materials in the incident.

Noland Lee stood at her door, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly, hearing another number in the hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Considering there were eight shops on the magic ship in total, the total compensation might exceed 5 million gold coins.

“Take this, Jarvis, as my gift to repay you for protecting me.” Kalandi picked up a potion bottle from the table and stuffed it into Noland Lee’s hand.

This potion bottle was made of special magic glass, which was both hard and flexible, providing excellent protection for the contents inside.

When he examined it more closely, Noland Lee saw a small light green sphere moving slowly in the bottle behind the flawless glass.

Like a guardian spirit protecting the little tree inside the bottle, the one-centimeter-diameter sphere fluttered and danced around it.
