The Release That Witch
Chapters 82's

Since Lightning was the only one who had practical experience with sailing, then he was given the task of being a navigator .

In addition, he was also interested in barges of strange shape and unique construction materials. Although it looked very rough, it had every essential part needed for a ship and could move, but he was not allowed to drive it himself. After all, for most of his time at sea, he had only been an observer because his father had always refused his request to steer the ship.

In keeping with tradition, Lightning broke a bottle of wheat wine on the bow of the ship for the first departure of the ship, and then he gave the order to sail. Carter, as captain, was naturally reluctant to let the little girl seize her position as commander, so every time she gave the order, the knight would follow through with the same order.

Small Town Screens were sewn from animal skins, with cowhide and sheepskin making up the majority of the screen, but they were also mixed with some Border Town specialties, such as wolf skin, bear skin, and the like. So the screen has many different types of colors - brown, gray and white, like a screen patched of many fabrics. The screen is trapezoidal, and is divided by four separate beams. At the top of the screen, the cable passes through an iron ring to connect it to a pole, while the bottom falls to the deck. One only needs to pull the cable to lift the entire screen.

To make the operation of the ship as simple as possible, the Little City only had two sails that were parallel to each other and perpendicular to the centerline. In general, if a two-pole sailboat was built in this way, it would catch only a small amount of wind, almost making the second mast irrelevant. But with Wendy's ability to control the wind, this design will allow her to evenly distribute her power on both sides of the midline, making it more convenient for the helmsman to change the direction of the ship.

When Lightning saw that the screen had been installed, she ordered the harbor workers on the ground to remove the rope. Right now, the weather is very good. The snow that came down occasionally was carried by the breeze like water as the ship slowly left the shore.

The little girl got down to Brian's side and ordered, "With full steering!

Carter also shouted, "With the wheel full!"

"Uh, what does this right steering mean?" Brian scratched his head and asked, "How many circles are right?"

"No, you have to turn the steering wheel to the left," Lightning said as she walked away. "Come, or should I come?"

He had forgotten that this was the first time these people controlled the ship, so they did not even understand the basics of any instructions. If this was a standard prison, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to launch the screen . With less than ten people, they can still pilot ships offshore, which is only possible due to the ship's unique design.

Lightning took the handle of the wheel even higher than her, and with her feet above the ground, she turned it to the left - this huge transverse steering wheel was extremely heavy for an ordinary woman to turn. In the absence of mechanical power and less equal power transmission, he had to overcome the overall water resistance while driving a large iron rudder. However, since Lightning could fly, this was not a problem for him. He noted that there was a thin piece installed at the base of the rudder to prevent the rudder from overturning, so he couldn't help but wonder, I heard that the ship was the Prince's original design, he said, so how could he even know these details ?Even sailors who live at sea all year round do not necessarily know the structure of the various parts of the ship.

"Sister Wendy, you can start producing your wind."

Wendy, who was standing on top of the cabin, did not know whether she should laugh or cry, so this was the real reason why His Majesty asked if I was afraid of heights . So now, I have to power the ship with my abilities? When thinking about his usual boring life, such as drying meat or clothes, this gives him a subtle feeling of contrast. He opened his hands, went to his usual training state, and let the wind blow from his legs to his head evenly, balancing as much wind as possible while blowing it to both sides of the screen.

To be honest, Wendy did not expect that this seemingly simple task would be so difficult to execute.

Although she had awakened as a witch fifteen years ago, she had never tried to gain a deeper understanding and control over her powers. Whether it was summoning the wind to attack the enemy or summoning a storm to sweep through the enemy, it was a one-time release of a large amount of magic. In the camp, when doing homework, he would only occasionally have to use a lot of manpower, but as long as his goal could be achieved, he would not use much manpower. Now thinking of Anna, who had always earnestly used her strength, Wendy suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

These are not empty words. From now on I will start ... Wendy took a deep breath and focused all her attention on creating the wind.

Although the wind was not perfectly balanced, the sails were still protruding, and under the continuous flow of wind, the mast of the ship let out a screeching sound, and the bow began to turn right.

"Requally moving!" Carter exclaims.

"Your Majesty was able to turn the stone into a boat, and let it float on the water," Sir Pyne laughed and asked, "Is there anything he can't do?”

The Little City moved further and further away from the shore, gradually moving towards the middle of the river.

Wendy could blow the wind out of nothing, but she could not make the existing North wind disappear, so the wind came from both directions, so there was no way the ship could move straight using just her strength. So, they also had to rely on steering to set the direction of the ship. Lightning could not teach Brian with just words, this was something Brian had to experience on his own. So that he could master this feeling as quickly as possible, the little girl's first order was to change the direction of the ship so that she could learn the relationship between the angle of rotation of the steering wheel and the swing of the bow while she herself made only minor adjustments.

After navigating for more than an hour over the Chishui River, Wendy was unable to survive any longer.

It was not that he had run out of magic power, but rather his body, which had reached its limit.

Even though his body was wrapped in so many layers that he looked like a dumpling, it was still unable to fully withstand the rush of the cold wind. A layer of snow had already piled up on his cotton hat and he could no longer feel his hands and feet while standing on the wobbly roof. If it wasn't for Lightning seeing him swaying strangely, perhaps he would have fallen into a coma.

So Lightning quickly flies towards Wendy and catches her body while yelling to Brian that she should sail back to the dock.

The latter steered the rudder to the right, letting the ship slowly turn left. Lightning flies from the cabin while carrying Wendy. Under the deck, they only had a screen to save them from the wind, but it was at least not as cold as before so they could store their body temperature. Moreover, when they wanted to reach the shore, it would require someone with good control, he said, and Lightning will never dare to let a beginner take over this important task - even though he never did it himself.

When they finally landed and the banks of the river collided with the hull of the ship, making a loud noise, all the hearts of the people on the ship started racing. Although it sounds alarming when the hull collides with the beach, it doesn't look too bad in the end. Sailors quickly folded the sails and installed boards to climb ashore.

Fortunately, they were unable to sail in a straight line during their trial journey, so thanks to the back-and-forth training in the vast river, they were not too far away from Border Town.

Lightning flew towards the castle while carrying Wendy. Carter looked at the stone ship and sighed loudly. Without the help of the witch, she did not want to try to sail the ship back to the dock.
