The game has become a real alternate world-Chapter 913 - 595: Alchemy Ship

Golden Dawn Sea, east of the Tate Continent.

Due to special geographical factors, it receives intense sunlight all year round. With excessive accumulation of heat, the temperature in this sea area is far higher than elsewhere.

During the day, the sun hangs high, unbearably hot; at night, thick fog pervades, making everything around hazy.

On an uninhabited island in this sea area, there is a small harbor.

This harbor is used as a transit station for Night Watcher ships, where they replenish supplies and allow crew members to rest. In previous years, most of the time it was the transport ships of the Commerce Association that docked here for resupply.

As the war on the Lebia Continent progressed, this place gradually developed into a small marine outpost for the Night Watchers. It took on the patrol mission of the surrounding waters, sometimes executing emergency rescue actions.

On the island, Asira pushed open the creaking iron gate. In the morning mist, iridescent light suddenly lit up.

The Blood Race children following her couldn't help but hold their breath— in the vine-entwined dock, a three-masted ship was basking in the morning light, as if stretching its form.

Its mast was crystal coral-like in clarity and transparency, with the secret silver-covered keel flowing under the mist with a liquid moonlight shimmer.

"It's beautiful, like a work of art." Elf Pokanasha's eyes glistened with light as she saw the long-lost style of her homeland from the ship.

"Watch the steps." Asira reached out to support Ina's shoulder.

"I'm not a child anymore." Ina felt a bit disgruntled by Asira's over-care, as it made her feel awkward in front of her friends.

She wore leather boots, walking over the moss-covered plank bridge. The luminescent shellfish attached to the wooden stakes felt the movement and immediately retracted into their shells.

Adam sniffed, the air was filled with the scent of sea salt mixed with some burning spices, reminiscent of a pine forest after a thunderstorm.

A closed-eye mermaid figurehead was at the ship's bow, and as it sensed the approach of the Night Watchers, its coral-colored eyelashes suddenly quivered.

From the tail, the secret silver scales lit up layer by layer, ultimately focusing their light into the crystal ball held in its palm. "This is Navigator Elsa, which is also the name of this ship."

The mermaid figurehead seemed to come to life, slowly floating in the air, landing before Asira.

Asira gently tapped the mermaid's wrist, the sphere immediately spun with dazzling stardust. "She remembers the tidal changes of three thousand seven hundred and twenty-one routes. She's also the puppet captain of this ship. A puppet... Do you know? Never mind, you'll understand in the future."

The children following were initially ready to hear a story, but these words deflated their interest, causing each one to pout.

The group followed Asira onto the deck, where suddenly golden patterns emerged on the seemingly ordinary wooden railings.

The accompanying mage lightly tapped the mainmast with a metal hairpin, and the metal column wrapped in emerald crystal slowly ascended from the deck, its top suspending an eternal pale flame.

"The Flame of the Night." The mage opened his palm, and a translucent port phantom instantly emerged within the flame. "You can directly relay your memories to her regarding the destination and certain navigation requirements, and she will automatically analyze it. This is new technology transmitted a year ago from the Lebia Continent."

At this moment, a swarm of alchemy dragonflies suddenly poured out from the base of the lookout tower like a tide. Their wings were overlapping ice crystal sheets, the amethyst embedded in their abdomens flickering with the frequency of their wingbeats.

"Wow!" The children were instantly attracted to these beautiful dragonflies.

"Each one is a mobile sentry." Asira whistled, and the leading dragonfly immediately perched on her shoulder, its compound eyes reflecting the whole view of the dock behind the children.

As the children approached the rail, the sea water suddenly boiled. Five metal dorsal fins cut through the waves, and shark-shaped alchemy creations bared their fangs— a terrifying mouth composed of hundreds of rotating blades. "This is Deep Diver numbers three to seven."

The Half-Elf Assassin tossed a glowing mineral, and the nearest shark caught it mid-air, crushing it, dark red energy flowed through hydraulic tubes into the hull. "Their tail fins are engraved with Wave-Breaking Runes."

This professional explanation left the children bewildered, unable to grasp the meaning.

The Half-Elf clicked his tongue, well, rare was the chance to show off some knowledge.

From the second deck came the roaring sound of gears turning. Hexagonal crystal cannons slowly rose from hidden chambers, the copper vines twined around the barrels absorbing static electricity from the clouds.

"Thundercloud Shatterer." The dwarf uncle, who unknowingly ascended the cannon platform, excitedly shouted, his voice full of joy.

He placed his palm on the Authentication Rune, the cannon muzzle immediately gathering a blue-white light ball. "Last time we shattered a hurricane, and caught Lightning Eels in the rainbow. Those fish are electrified, they tingle when eaten, you must try them if you get a chance."

"Only you would eat that." Asira couldn't help but retort.

The bronze raven door handle on the oak door to the captain's room automatically opened inward. The raven seemed to shake its head, as if conducting some recognition.

As the group stepped into the room, the nautical chart on the wall suddenly "came alive," the various elements on the map began to surge, as if analyzing and marking.

"This is one of the few independent alchemy products from the Great Library, rumored to be a mimicry of [The Map]. It can sense undercurrents thirty nautical miles away." The mage in the team explained, and evidently, these words weren't meant for the children, but for the other companions.

Tokke touched the porthole, causing ripples across the glass surface, revealing phantoms of sailors working in the bottom cabin. They manipulated a forge spewing azure flames, forging Magic Crystal Stones into new dragonfly wings.

"The entire ship is a lively alchemy matrix. The scenes below are illusions, and who knows which alchemist thought it would be fun to do this."

"But it is indeed fun." The dwarf uncle couldn't help but counter.

The mage rolled his eyes, he strongly suspected it was a dwarf alchemist who caused this mischief.

Asira opened the small refrigerator embedded with Moonlight Stone, fetching two large bottles of bubbling purple beverages. "The keel absorbs ocean magic power, while the sails capture sunlight and starlight, and we— here, have a drink."

However, an earth-shattering booming noise interrupted her words. Looking through the crystal dome, the secret silver patterns on the sails had turned into a blazing golden color. Countless light particles peeled from the air, infused along the mast into the forge below. The entire ship began to gently tremble, the anchor chain retracting with the sound like a harp.

"Hold tight!"

The squad members quickly embraced the nearest children. Ina was pressed into a cushioned observation chair by Asira. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Through the prisms on all sides, one could see the twelve vast sails simultaneously billowing, sunlight refracting within the transparent material casting rainbow waterfall-like vibrant light shadows.

The ship's stern sprayed a trail of magic power and light dust, the dock's outline twisting into a vortex within the magic turbulence.

As the sensation of weightlessness suddenly struck, the alchemy ship was speeding across the ocean with a spiraled light trail, cut waves forming water walls splashing to both sides.

The alchemy sharks leaped out of the water, their blade-like fins slicing through the milky white waves.

The mermaid figurehead swam at the forefront, seemingly guiding the direction ahead.

To the children witnessing this dream-like scene, it was filled with magical colors. Compared to this, the horrid Blood Race pirate ship was simply a cesspool.
