Chapter 125: Voyage and Confession
When the underwater gates opened, the water level of the entire river lowered significantly However, it was fortunate that the new balance created by the massive rain and hurricanes had caused the Seafolk’s reaction to the change in water level to be delayed
When the giant shi+p floated to the surface of the water, ere surprised by the change in the city
The City of Rain, Feloci, truly lived up to its name In the past two and a halfthe construction on Borealis, innumerable Seafolk had followed the path of the river to come to this city, and the human city had already been transformed into a new city of dreams for the Seafolk who desired better lives
Harloys’ clones served as our best scouts Finding a transparent slime in the water is a near impossible task, not to mention that she had plenty of time to plant innunificent capital still re hands The White Whale Tribe was originally just a giant tribe living by the coastal areas, but due to its contribution in the assault, as well as the great prestige they earned through the overwhel victory, they becaus the 1st This was the new name of the white Whaleman with the massive physique
The preparation that was uration cereuration of the Whaleus The unrealistic fantasy of co with a country of Seafolk had been realised Agus the 1st and his clan became the neners of Feloci Under the rewards and protection of the Queen of the Storer than them, they could only remain as his citizens
Feloci was the nadom of the Seafolk The Guardian Goddesses of this country were the Queen of the Storms and the Water Eledom was structured in a staircase-like structure The new tribes would move into the various districts based on their race, such as the Fisha District, Sea Beastman District, Sea Giant District, and so on On the other hand, the original tribes who fought in the battle would enter the royal city and become the new nobles ould serve the royalty
Froe fro, as well as the dissipation of the authority held by the heads of the various powerful tribes
As a result, although a neay of life was extre to serve beneath someone There had been plenty of cases of tribes who left after living in the city for a period of time Even so, there were many meh their departure
In this world of es, the fixed population in the city along with the movement of the population to and from the city was the basis for the rise and fall of a city
Soon, as athered here, the new City of Rain becah the borders of the city were still in a state of war, the new life for the Seafolk in the city had started to unfold First and foreoods were the daily appliances of the surface dwellers Inexpensive vases, fresh fruits, and waterproof silk cloth could be exchanged for precious gems and jewels
The accumulation of those newly-arrived tribes could not be underestimated Many of the mystical treasures of the ocean could not be analysed, but judging froths on the thehably inexpensive An Epic-tier Dragon Pearl of a Sea Dragon could be traded for just two rolls of silk
This is al jewels for rocks It was very possible that not even King Midas would reat profits involved in the trade made me a little te trouble, I would have had Tracy barter for quite a few treasures
Aware of a merchant’s temperament towards profits, I didn’t doubt that the moment I started to spread the news, innumerable merchants would risk their lives to trade with the Seafolk At that point, the Seafolk would be able to y and products they earned from the trades
Other than daily appliances, another bestseller in the markets were the multiple kinds of weapons used on the Surface Even when the superior weapons made of alloy left behind by the Auland Empire had been hoarded by the White Whale Tribe so as to equip their oarriors, the longswords, pikes, knives, and other weapons from the Surface were far superior compared to the wooden, rock, and bone- these few days, the first shops to reopen were the blackse and flood that followed the assault on the city, very few of the skilled blacksmiths, craftsmen, and alchemists survived, and the feho survived met with quite a bit of trouble
Many of the amphibious Seafolk who had been on the Surface previously were al, thus, the very first job of those blacks fro queue outside the blacksmith’s shop, it seemed that the flood had caused their craftsmanshi+p to return back to the prinificant period of time before they would develop in this aspect Even so, it was still a hard to coht, there would be a bonfire and banquet on the waterproof platforet even a single slice of cooked h spirits
Their civilization s, but this newly rising capital was exactly what the Seafolk had expected and desired, and they were gradually developing into a powerful, centralized kingdoer Every day, countless Seafolk arrived at the City of Rain Soon, the city would be filled up to the borders, and in order to expand their living space, they would have to fight It was clear to see that this would be the first battlefield of the eternal war
Fortunately, or perhaps, unfortunately, the Auland E accu their capital caused theanize their forces to prepare for war Very quickly, a new defense line was built and the support troops from the numerous nobles from various territories arrived quickly
It was hard to say hoerful the ar froth of the eht that the Auland E at the very end
Soon, the fight over living space would begin once again, destined to be savage
Regardless of whom the final victor of this ould be, it probably wouldn’t be peaceful here for a significant period of time Auland E their capital
To us, neither of the sides could be considered as our friends The only thing ished for was to not get entangled in the fight, especially ere under the very eyes of the Seafolk right now
On that day, the storht of the Seafolk In the eyes of the Seafolk, the fall of the Hydra was on Slayer and the Forbidden Spell, so they ought to still be oblivious to our existence Even so, we dared not continue staying here for too long
Predictably, in the near future, as athered here, the increased Power of Faith would become nourishment for the Queen of the Storms Eventually, when the Queen of the Storms finally converted this new city into part of her divine territory and a level of intimacy was established between the church and altars of the Queen of the Storms, the consciousness of the Queen of the Storer around here most of the tiht be able to avoid the sight of ordinary mortals, but I did not have confidence that the same hold true for true Gods Thus, the earlier we set forth, the safer ould be
Thus, the seventh day after the Borealis had been successfully converted to an Undead, when the newborn Undead had started to get used to its new body and the first batch of weapons become usable, we chose to set off
The underwater passage used specially for the shi+p opened and the 300- slowly, the shock waves of its iant ripples underwater
Of course, wethe way However, before they could have an encounter with the warshi+p, they were bloay by the shock waves
When this aquatic dragon left the water to soar into the skies, it left behind a giant whirlpool in its trail Then, when the Mage Tower on the warshi+p successfully activated its stealth mode, the interior of the Borealis exploded into cheers After all, regardless of how incredible the design was, its practical abilities could only be proven in a real battle
“First, the shi+p will leave through the east of Auland and enter the sea only upon reaching the sea in the east, as it should be safer that way Then,the coastal area, the shi+p will only soar up upon reaching North Trois Froht towards the East Mist Communal Nation This is the ideal path we have confirmed after multiple discussions”
“Why ht to East Mist?”
“If ere to fly straight to East Mist, ould trespass the aerial territory of quite a few superpower empires I don’t think that they would be unprepared for any threats that appear in their aerial territory; even a stealth unit isn’t really a rare toy to thehts? Further warshi+p were to leak out…”
I immediately understood Kelly’s words It was best to keep so as possible If the existence of this shi+p were to be exposed now, countless troubles could ensue
Kelly’s suggestion was onethe level of risk, and orth a try However, the suggestion of the chief engineer fro
“It’s not recoreat a distance After flying for a period of time, ill need tofaulty equip the water is the optimal choice Furthermore, we don’t have hy to the pier of Kasilo Kingdom It shouldn’t be too difficult”
Actually, I was not very concerned with taking a detour, but rather hesitant upon entering the sea
The Systeht not be reliable, but it was the typical type which was spot-on onthat re: The Queen of the Storms has marked you If there isn’t a need, please do not approach coastal areas and, even more so, do not enter the sea
Of course, if you insist, you can try to kill other Sea Monsters and true Gods’ avatars As long as you are in the sea, I can guarantee you that the rewards will be better than this】
The Queen of the Storms was a member of the Malevolent Gods of Chaos Her Jurisdictions included Storm, Tempest, and the Guardian God of a portion of the Seafolk Although she had wanted to attain the Jurisdiction of the Sea God, she has yet to accooal in the last several thousand years
The current Sea God was Osweyar, another ancient that had survived until the present day From a certain viewpoint, he could be considered as the descendant of the current Ancient Water Elemental Goddess Aylos This Sea God was renowned to have a low profile in the Order Faction Perhaps they ht be acquainted with one another privately, but I did not think that he would spare the Queen of the Storms any face when the horn of the eternal Sacred War sounded
Detect the appearance of a single shi+p in the sea? Since even the Sea God Osweyar was incapable of such a feat, there was no need to speak of the Queen of the Storms, whose Jurisdictions did not include the existence of oceans Even so, I dared not let uard down
“That … must we enter the sea?”
“Yes, the probability of our engineexceeds 17 Even if the felloere to work overti for long We would need to stop it to conduct checks and repairs”
“Fine, then get the guys to prepare for battle Our theoretical enemies should be … Sea Monsters Yeah, let’s treat that Hydra as our theoretical enemy”
Even without the System Notice, if the Queen of the Storh possibility that ould meet with Sea Monsters on the way After all, that queen had another title—Queen of Sea Monsters, and there are quite a few Sea Monsters under her command
