With the new high power Wind Magic Engine and the support of the large scale Water Magic Array, the Unfolding Wings Ship could reach a maximum speed of thirty kilometers an hour, which was equal to over fifteen knots.
Although there was still quite a bit of difference compared to the ships on earth, the Academy of Magic and the magic machine development center still had a lot of room to improve on the Wind Magic Engine. Adding in the fact that the Fire Magic Engine had already been developed to a certain degree, it was very likely that it would be developed soon, so the power would be increased even further.
The most important thing was that the large Water Magic Array at the bottom of the Magic Ship that used the water flow to move it, while also reducing the resistance of the water flow, increasing the speed of the Magic Ship was still in its initial stage of development. When this Magic Array was further developed, or if there was an even more useful Water Magic Array, the speed of the Magic Ship would without a doubt increase again.
Xu Yi was confident that the Magic Ship's speed would definitely catch up to the ships on earth and might even surpass them.
Because compared to it, the large scale Water Magic Array that the Magic Ship used was something that earth didn't have.
Moreover, with the help of this Water Magic Array, the Magic Ship would be less affected by the currents. It would reduce the effects of storms on the sea and increase the safety of the ship while also being very stable. It was just like walking on land, there wouldn't be any bumps at all.
The smooth sailing of the Unfolding Wings Ship even made the captain Narvil feel a bit bored.
He was born by the sea and had been fishing with his parents since he was young. He had spent most of his life on the sea and was already used to the dangerous and exciting life on the sea. Now that he was driving the Unfolding Wings Ship that was too calm, he wasn't used to it.
Other than him, most of the crew members on the Unfolding Wings Ship came from Great Magician Telucci's hometown of Caraska Island, so they had all lived on the sea since they were young.
Sailing on the Unfolding Wings Ship was completely different from the wooden ships they had been on since they were young.
Compared to that, sailing on the Unfolding Wings Ship was just too comfortable.
Of course, if one wanted excitement, the New Flyer could still provide a choice.
The small Magic Speed Boat was a ship that pursued extreme speed. Although it had the support of the Water Magic Array, its main function was to increase speed. It was much worse than the Unfolding Wings Ship in terms of stability.
The newly developed small Magic Speed Boat could reach a speed of over fifty kilometers an hour. With how much smaller it was compared to the Unfolding Wings Ship, if it charged across the sea at high speeds, it would even fly into the air when it met a wave.
This was countless times more exciting than riding the Unfolding Wings, so the crew of the New Flyer fleet would ride the small Magic Speed Boats to experience this excitement when they had the chance.
Great Magician Camilla was very fond of this activity.
In his free time, other than racing cars, Great Magician Camilla would ride the small Magic Speed Boats to experience the pleasure of surfing.
No matter how one looked at it, he didn't look like an old man who was over sixty years old. Instead, he looked more like a young man who liked to pursue excitement.
Every time he thought of Great Magician Camilla's surprising hobby, Xu Yi couldn't help muttering in his heart, "Could it be that after becoming a Great Magician, not only will one's body become younger because of the stimulation of magic, even one's mind will become younger?"
But every time he saw Great Magician Telucci, he would remind Xu Yi that Great Magician Camilla was only an exception.
The Unfolding Wings Ship sailed for over four hours and finally reached Caraska Island's harbour before night fell.
When they got off the ship, Great Magician Telucci and Caraska Island's Island Lord Smilton came forward to greet them.
"Chairman Xu, welcome to Caraska Island again." Smilton gave Xu Yi a large hug with a wide smile.
Caraska Island was called the Pirate's Island by people and Smilton as the island lord had the title of "Pirate King" in the mouths of many people.
But when facing Xu Yi, this rough man was incomparably warm. With the contrast of his laughter and his smile, even the long scar on his face didn't seem that fierce.
Xu Yi returned the hug and said with a smile, "Island Lord Smilton, I'm here to disturb you again."
Smilton laughed again, "I welcome Chairman Xu's disturbances very much. Everyone on the island also welcomes you. Everyone hopes that Chairman Xu can come and disturb us more."
Xu Yi revealed a faint smile. He thought that every time he came to Caraska Island, he would bring many benefits to the people on the island, so of course they would welcome him from top to bottom.
After getting in touch with Caraska Island through Great Magician Telucci, before Xu Yi even came to Caraska Island for the first time, New Flyer had already sent over a hundred thousand gold coins worth of daily necessities to Caraska Island.
When Xu Yi came to Caraska Island for the first time, other than bringing over fifty thousand gold coins worth of household magic machines, he also did a detailed inspection of the island. In the end, he decided to build two factories and a mine here.
The two factories were a cement processing factory and a small scale steel mill. As for the mine, it could be considered a pleasant surprise.
Although Caraska Island wasn't big, being less than ten square kilometers in size, there was an iron mine on it. Moreover, it was an open iron mine, so it was very rich in minerals.
Xu Yi had supported Caraska Island before because he wanted to build a good relationship with Great Magician Telucci, so that he could draw Great Magician Telucci to New Flyer.
But after seeing the iron mine on the island, Xu Yi immediately changed his position on Caraska Island. He began considering turning Caraska Island into an offshore base for New Flyer.
After these two factories and the mine were built, with the large amount of iron produced from the mine, as well as the production from the cement processing factory and the small scale steel mill, Xu Yi first built a large harbour on Caraska Island.
The harbour outside was less than half finished, so it could only hold three large Magic Boats.
According to Xu Yi's plan, this harbour could hold at least ten large Magic Boats at the same time.
After Xu Yi greeted Smilton, he turned to Great Magician Telucci and gave him a magician's bow.
"Your excellency Great Magician, it's already this late, why are you coming out to greet me?"
Great Magician Telucci revealed a faint smile, "You are my chairman now, if I didn't come out to greet you, that would be too rude."
Xu Yi waved his hand, "You're too polite.
I've already said it, you are just a special researcher of our Magic Research Institute of New Flying Chamber of Commerce, you don't need to treat me as the chairman like the other employees of our company. "
"But I'm still taking your salary, aren't I?" Great Magician Telucci pointed at the brightly lit Caraska Island behind him with a smile.
Great Magician Telucci pointed at Caraska Island, "Moreover, not mentioning anything else, just based on the changes you've brought to Caraska Island, it's enough for me to be polite to you."
Great Magician Telucci was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
He was born on Caraska Island, so he could feel the poverty of Caraska Island.
Because this island was far from land, for the Sines with their low technology, it was like it was cut off from the rest of the world.
Because the land on Caraska Island was barren, the residents of the island lived in poverty. They chose to become pirates because they were forced by their living conditions.
Not to mention that the sea transport on the Sines wasn't developed at all, so the residents of the island couldn't steal anything even if they became pirates. They could only barely survive.
When Xu Yi began paying attention to Caraska Island, the environment of the island had greatly changed in just three short years.
The previous Caraska Island only had a few broken houses made of bricks and wood, barely enough for people to live in. They were very limited in their ability to block the wind and rain.
After Xu Yi built a cement factory and a small scale steel mill on the island, while building the pier, he also completely changed the houses of the residents of the island.
With the hard work of the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce workers that Xu Yi brought, there were many beautiful and sturdy houses built on Caraska Island. There were also various household magic machines sent by New Flyer in these houses, making the lives of the residents of the island several times more convenient than before.
Moreover, New Flyer would send people to deliver large amounts of food, oil, salt, and other daily necessities every month, making the residents of the island completely worry-free.
Great Magician Telucci had always wanted to change the lives of the residents of the island, but he had always been powerless.
Now that he had personally seen the changes Xu Yi had brought, he was naturally very grateful to Xu Yi in his heart.
Moreover, even if he had only joined New Flyer out of gratitude to Xu Yi, after truly participating in the research of magic machines, he found that he was becoming more and more interested in this kind of work.
Therefore, Great Magician Telucci had already approved of Xu Yi in his heart, so he had no qualms about calling him "chairman".
This time the Unfolding Wings was doing a long distance cruise. When they arrived at Caraska Island, they also brought this month's daily necessities.
After Xu Yi and Great Magician Telucci greeted each other, he said a few words to Smilton. Smilton waved his hand and the prepared islanders came onto the Unfolding Wings, moving the daily necessities down with the crew of the Unfolding Wings.
After all the daily necessities were moved, Xu Yi gave a look to Great Magician Telucci and Smilton. The three of them came onto the ship and came to another warehouse at the bottom of the Unfolding Wings.
After opening the door to the warehouse, Smilton and Great Magician Telucci looked over and took a deep breath at the same time.
Looking over, there were all kinds of military magic machines in the warehouse.
