Chapter 553 Now That We're Here
After strolling around for a while, Caesar almost confirmed one thing.
The people here really don't accept gold coins or anything like that, they basically only accept barter.
Why is this?
You know, gold is a very important precious metal.
If you want to forge equipment, practice magic, etc., gold is indispensable.
It is one of the most common and useful magically conductive metals in the world.
Best value for money.
The so-called gold coins, whether they are issued by Aoun or minted by the Holy See, are essentially just setting specifications for these important precious metals, and do not essentially give them special value.
It is different from the currency issued by the country.
For example, the reason why paper money has transaction value is that the country backs it up and gives it the power of currency.
But gold is different.
It is something that is quite precious in itself.
It will never be out of date no matter where you are.
Why don't the sea people circulate gold coins?
Caesar was a little confused.
Don’t these sea creatures forge equipment and practice magic?
Not really.
He had just clearly seen a place selling weapons over there.
After walking around for a while, Caesar still couldn't find the answer to this question.
However, the time for the sea patrol ceremony is approaching.
Cartaya did not go far, but waited for Caesar and the other person in the market.
Seeing that the time was almost up, he came over and asked the two if they needed him to lead the way to watch the sea patrol ceremony.
"sorry to bother you."
Caesar nodded.
"No trouble, no trouble, this is what I should do."
Kataya seemed a little flattered.
"plz follow me."
He said this and led the way for the two.
----------------
The ceremony was held in the center of this [island in the sea].
That is, under the statue is a very large circular plaza, with a diameter estimated to be dozens of miles.
When the time came, all the sea creatures on the island came over here.
Caesar also got to see various sea creatures.
The so-called sea people seem to have a lot in common with humans.
Among them, the proportion of professionals is quite high.
Caesar saw that more than 90% of the people here were professionals, and ordinary people accounted for only one tenth.
You know, this ratio is quite terrifying.
Even among the human race, the proportion of professionals is only about one-tenth.
It's completely the opposite of these sea creatures.
But it could also be a sample problem.
After all, the sea creatures that came to the sea of fog should have come here with the sea water that swept in when the sea of fog first descended.
Perhaps the non-professional sea creatures would not have come to this [island in the sea] in the first place.
Caesar thought so.
However, even if the proportion of professionals among the sea people is not more than 90%, it is definitely quite high.
After all, ordinary people are still very important in this world. They are the cornerstone of the functioning of society.
Ordinary people have their own way of living, and professionals have their own way of living.
Many of the conveniences enjoyed by professionals are provided by ordinary people.
In short, this is a rather complex social issue.
Caesar didn't say much.
Almost all the sea creatures on the entire [Island in the Sea] are here.
Caesar watched.
There were more than ten thousand of them. After paying attention to the aura among them, he was surprised to find that there were quite a few epic-level beings.
There are seven of them.
This includes the previous Yuglo elder.
Everyone in the square was attracted by the two people here.
After all, the entire island is inhabited by sea creatures, so the sudden appearance of a human and an elf is still very interesting.
But basically no one dared to step forward and speak.
There was a large empty circle around the two of them.
Although there are a lot of people, it is actually not noisy here and everyone is talking in a low voice.
That Yugru elder seems to have a high status here.
He stood on the altar and looked around at the sea creatures.
"It's time to light the sea prayer lanterns!"
He said so.
Several tentacles extended from his body, each holding a huge blue torch.
The torch was quite thick, and it would take at least four or five strong men to hug it.
The blue flame above kept jumping, as if it had a strange power.
Although it is an island in the sea, with a barrier outside isolating it from the sea water, it is actually filled with some special water, it's just a little special.
Even creatures on land can breathe in this water without any special skills.
But to talk about lighting a fire in water is indeed quite amazing.
The so-called sea prayer lanterns are not actually a special kind of lantern.
But they are just jellyfish.
The sea creatures spontaneously lined up, held the jellyfish, and touched them over the special blue flame. Then, the jellyfish began to glow.
Emitting a blue glow.
The flames didn't seem to harm the jellyfish.
"It is said that if you release the sea prayer lanterns you prepared in advance during the sea patrol ceremony and make a wish, there is a high probability that the sea will protect you and your wish will come true. If possible, you two can give it a try."
Kataya recommended this.
“But we didn’t prepare these things.”
Caesar spread his hands. He had no idea about this so-called sea patrol ceremony, so where did they start to prepare for it?
"It's okay. Just go buy a Haiqi Lantern."
Kataya said so.
"A long time ago, everyone prepared their own lanterns for sea prayers. But as time went by, many people found it troublesome to prepare lanterns for sea prayers. So some people prepared lanterns for sea prayers and sold them at the sea patrol ceremony. You see, there are some over there."
Cartaya showed Caesar the direction.
Although it is called a sea patrol ceremony, Xize actually feels that it is quite similar to those temple fairs.
Crowded.
"You can go over there and pick two and give them a try with your loved one."
Kataya said so.
"Okay, let's try it."
Caesar nodded.
"Fufu, let's go buy two too."
Caesar greeted him.
"No, the protection of the sea..." Fudan didn't finish her words, but Caesar could guess what she wanted to say.
This guy is quite unromantic sometimes.
I guess he thinks making wishes is useless.
But Caesar gave her a reason she couldn't refuse.
"Now that I'm here, I want to fly the sea prayer lanterns with you."
Caesar said so.
"..."
Fudan hesitated.
"There's really nothing I can do about you."
Seeing that she agreed, Caesar found another opportunity to grab her hand and walked over there.
