Chapter 533: 173. The Way to Make Money (2 in 1)

After sunset, the sea was like ink, bathed in the silver radiance of the moon enveloped in a halo.

Whenever the magic ship arrived at a place, Captain Berkeley would purchase local delicacies and specialties for the passengers on board.

Be it Tatis Empire or the Golden Federation, local delicacies and specialties were not particularly remarkable.

Sausages, beef rolls and black beer were made with simple and crude ingredients, with a mediocre taste.

Knowing that passengers would be disappointed, Captain Berkeley had magic servants arrange two magic dramas as performances.

The magic dramas were performed in the open-air square at the town center, free for all passengers to watch.

The first drama was about alchemists exploring the Fissure Corridor and suddenly being attacked by aberrations.

The second drama depicted the battle between an ordinary army and the Undead Cult in a Grave Vault.

Both magic dramas managed to somewhat reproduce a realistic representation of Union City and Suffering Borderland, with regards to the clothing, stage appearance, and sense of time.

The first drama was more accurate in its reproduction, thanks to the help of Elemental Judgement.

Shortly after Mabel brought wizard students on board, she quickly received an invitation from Captain Berkeley.

The captain paid a reward for Mabel and the wizard students to adjust the stage layout, plot content, lines and actor appearances of the dramas.

This approach was effective, as they managed to recreate the darkness, oppression and slipperiness of the Fissure Corridor.

Betty Davis, Philia and other wizard students even acted in the drama themselves, performing scenes where they used elemental spells to fight against demonized rats, aberrations, and illegal alchemists.

As one of the parties involved, Noland thought Philia and the others performed well, but he himself was almost embarrassingly engaged in the performance.

By comparison, the second magic drama was somewhat disappointing.

Noland shook his head as he watched from the second floor of the dining hall near the open-air square.

Since he did not reveal his identity as an Empire person and there were no Death Herald Guild wizards on the ship, Captain Berkeley had nowhere else to draw inspiration. He could only simulate the battle scene between the army and the Undead Cult based on hearsay and imagination.

Fighting against undead spirits capable of resurrection with mortal bodies and firearms would undoubtedly be a tragic scene.

After the second drama ended, most conversations on the scene revolved around, “Has the Tatis Emperor lost his mind?”
