Chapter 1597 [Bonus chapter]Predestined

The seas were quite good, but the weather was getting a little colder.

The 2nd week of September had just arrived. And though the sun was up, one could see that the land and seas were preparing for Fall, as the winds blowing were no more that of hot air but slightly colder air instead.

The fishes and many sea creatures jumped from the waters from time to time, and the seas around ushered a calming sense, except for the sloshing waves that smashed against the ship’s side.

Din. Din. Din. Din~

A young man calmly stepped out of his cabin, heading down to meet his crew members, all standing on the docks of both ships too.

They had adhered to the advice of their newly made friend, sailing via route at particular appointed times. And wouldn’t you know it? Their little friend was right!

Since sailing, they had yet to meet any more troubling Morgs.

Of course, they saw several passerby ships with travelers on them. These ships mostly belonged to merchants who made side money by charging any and all peasants who intended to hop aboard.

They did see some ships belonging to several power factions. But no one bothered with them. As a protective measure, they either docked or made a U-turn back, avoiding people like the plague.

The only thing they felt happy about was that they didn’t run into any bloody pirates.

Since then, they had been sailing safely toward Baymard’s direction, and their hope still ignited, especially after seeing the mysterious guard’s instructions accurately.

And now, it looks like their journey was finally over.

“Your highness! That should be the Baymardian ships!” Someone exclaimed excitedly, seeing the giant ship approach.

Initially, they thought the ships were a school of great big boggles sailing to them at dangerous speeds.

From the far blurry horizon, the first image they picked up was smaller than their pinky. But as it came closer and closer, the group informed those rowing to stop. And now, everyone was standing outside, watching the many beauties draw closer.

Payne smacked his lips in disbelief.

F***!

This has got to be the tallest ship he had ever seen, right?

They kid you not, 3 of their ships would need to be stacked together to reach this ship’s height.

Mind you, this was a Navy ship that was supposed to be moderate.

So if they saw a cruise ship, what would they do?

This was too exaggerated, right?

The group stared at the towering ship with jaws dropped to the ground.

Sweat, Mother of Pearls!

Though they had initially seen that the ship was made of metal, seeing it float live in the flesh was far different than seeing it in a magazine.

“Well, I’ll be damned… It’s really true.” Payne commented, feeling it difficult to pull his eyes away. And just then, a voice echoed across the space.

No doubt, the person speaking should be using a megaphone. But which megaphone was so powerful?

The voice quality projected was clearer and calmer, showing that the person wasn’t shouting.

But this wasn’t right. When using a megaphone, one had to shout to get the message across.

And then, they saw 2 faces they had seen several times in the Baymardian magazine.

They were his majesty Landon and King-Father Lucius.

They are really here!!!

Landon stared at the group below, showing his friendly side.

“We mean no harm. We heard about your situation and are here to help if you let us.”

That’s right. ‘If’ they would let them. The ball was in their court.

Artemis nodded and exchanged a broad conversation with Landon and Lucius.

In the end, a connecting walkway was opened from the side of Landon’s ship, and the Giants all stepped in.

**Shock**

They were gasping loudly while looking at the ship’s insides.

It was true that there wasn’t much to see here since the space they first entered was one that led straight to an elevator and stairway.

But who made them never see an elevator before?

Ding!~

The sound and automatic opening doors caused them to jump.

There was no one in the elevator to force the doors open. So what was this sorcery?

They thought maybe the side door on the ship that brought out the connecting path should’ve done so by having people lower It with ropes.

This was their original thinking. That’s why they kept searching for the ropes when passing by. But they didn’t see a thing. And now, the elevator door opened on its own.

So could it be these Baymardians had mastered some level of sorcery to make it happen? Could it be a gifted person who controlled the doors?

Eh? Did they use their gifted people as door openers?

In that case, just how powerful were these Baymardians truly?

(‘0’)

.

Like so, the Giants had their ridiculous thoughts on the matter.

“Welcome, aboard, your highness Artemis.”

The moment they stepped into the ship, a group was already waiting to escort them up. One of the people in the group was the person who pressed the elevator button.

“Your highness, Artemis, please, right this way.”

“Hmmm…” Artemis, Payne, and 1 other all rode the elevator to the decks while everyone else took the stairs.

Of course, with how big and mighty these following Giants were, having too many of them at a time in the elevator would seriously be a problem.

They have weighed themselves using the scales yet. But one shouldn’t forget the elevator had a weight limit.

These were some of the essential things Landon wanted to change once Alien Tech was mass-produced.

All elevators and their cords pulling and holding them would have to be changed.

With the metal enhancer, these elevators and the weaved metal cords holding them would be stronger than before.

What’s more, it would also feel lighter than its current state.

Stronger and lighter? Who doesn’t want this? Before any ports were made in Omania, all ships, elevators, and every other major equipment would have to be changed/switched for enhanced ones.

Landon didn’t want the cords snapping and killing people left, right, and center.

The only good thing he was pleased with was that most things in Baymard were made taking their height into consideration.

He always wondered why the system made things so talk until he took a look at Omania.

They would have no problem when it concerns their height.

.

“Rest assured, your highness… Everyone will meet at the decks above.”

Inside the elevator, Artemis, Payne, and the other all moved their eyes like confused chickens. At times, their eyes would widen, and their lips would shake.

What was this? Where was the light in the elevator coming from? And why were the buttons lighting up after being pressed?

Eh?

Artemis stretched his hands and held onto the elevator walls as he felt a strange force pulling down the higher they went.

He had never gone upwards with this speed before. So of course he was shaken. The 2 others accompanying him were no different.

Damn.

Was this what happens when one goes high up faster? And what was that strange force just now?

Gravity!

He and many others had jumped downward, never feeling the weight so much. But when you go naturally upwards at this speed, your body starts feeling heavier than usual.

Artemis’ mind was going around his circles as he wanted to explore and understand this strange force better.

To him, it was a heaven-defying matter that many Omanian philosophers should study.

The group carried on with their many thoughts until their elevator ride came to an end.

~Ding!

The invisible pressure vanished, and the doors finally opened.

So big!!!!

Those were everyone’s first thoughts, never having seen a deck this long and wide before.

…. How can something be so big?

What are they storing down here? Small submarines, military trucks, military tanks… Well, what can they say?

Their military ships here were also slightly bigger than what those in Landon’s former world were

Why? Because they always had to travel with their vehicles and other heavy artillery.

What’s more, this world was nowhere near as safe as his former world. So it felt better to travel with everything, including medical supplies.

The smaller ships were used mainly by the Coastal guards, whose jobs were to guard and patrol the Baymardian waters and seashores.

Bigger boys like these were for the Navy.

.

Artemis stepped out, seeing Landon and Lucius standing opposite him.

Lucius was still astonished by the true height of these people, especially with them standing so close to him.

F***!

He seems to understand why Mother Kim would always accuse him of having her neck in cramps.

Just looking up at these people also agonized his neck.

Landon had a warm smile.

“Your Highness Artemis… Welcome aboard our ship. We’ve been looking forward to meeting you.”

Artemis’ tensed heart calmed, seeing Landon’s warm gaze. He felt no malice from these people.

“It’s good…”

Artemis looked to the sky, feeling it all predestined.

Vine God… Is he the help you wanted us to meet?

Alright.

Then it was time to save his people!!
