Chapter 178: A warship in a ditch

The pod blisters with a wave of colour in excitement and awe. The Typhoon sits in a nest of coral grown over with the ages. The ship is much larger than the illustration that SKY Ocean Hunter had acquired of the Typhoon. This super submarine is a Realm Raider. 

Calypso is the first to flash brightly, " Thats amazing how has it stayed here all this time." If she ever came across this she would stripped it for parts and other valuables even if it can't sail she would make the most of what the ship has to offer. 

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, " All the scrappable components have been removed, the records I found only list that the critical systems are still intact as they are locked behind magical defences systems." 

MagmaHeart signs, " So then how do we get into, just look at that top section. What is that lace work structure it looks like the Lantian Field in the palace." Her eyes are trying to analyze every part of the ship. 

X2CU signs, " Forget all that can you pass us a stat or something on the ship. " 

SKY Ocean Hunter smiles sending what he has over the years the Sunken Ocean House has worked to maintain the outer structure using what they can analyze to develop technology and other materials.

Eyes pop and mouths are agape as they read the stats sheet. Of particular interest to Calypso is the inner structure the Typhoon Realm Raider is described as being able to process and analyze all the loot it comes across. Its main purpose is to create component blue prints from raided loot. Every major lifestyle class is covered in its internals. 

SmittenKitten69 explodes with colour using system group chat, " This thing is three kilometers long and one kilometer wide, how is this a raider. I thought maybe the coral has over grown it. " 

Hakagure signs, " It is apparently it is a small ship from the manufacturer, I can't quite make out the symbols and name. " She chose to sign because it was at times like this it is important to remember they are guests in the Ocean. SKY Ocean Hunter has stressed several times that they need to remember that this NPC's can react badly if they belive they are being rude.

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, " It was a custom job, The Typhoon Realm Raider was built at the height of the Barren Sea. Back then it was part of three world ships built but my family only has notes on the Typhoon." He wished he knew where the World Ship was that would have been almost as good as getting a Flower Garden Fort, those mobile cities and forts can make a huge difference in the early game. 

Calypso has been reading the same piece over and over. The prime ability outside of fighting is the basically that it has labs they don't have to build that secret base that Tatiana wanted. Infact the typhoon must be kept hidden. 

Calypso signs, " If other people find out we have this it will lead to an invasion. " 

McQueen signs, " No it won't not at all, this isn't even the biggest ship in the Pikon Region right now. Just look at what enemies find." Her interest in sea vessels is being pushed by Apolita and Blackbread they have started to a stream on ships of the Pikon. The Battleship secured by Forst Empire dwarfs anything at the moment but the cost to get it running is equally astronomical.

BABYMAKERXCREAM sign, " Boss why didn't we start here this ships can hold ten thousand people comfortable, this ship has whole apartment blocks built into it?" The more she reads the more she wants to set on this ship. Even the eight kilometer long battleship from Frost Empire looks nothing as complex as this. From the few images they have seen from the streams.

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, " Because I didn't have anything to offer in return. Majesty extracts a price besides most of my rare items for my seal. She even took my mission locked items I have to start my crown from scratch. All for the key to the Typhoon." 

X2CU signs, " I thought she loved you?" Hearing the invisible costs he has to lay makes sense she always wondered why SKY Ocean Hunter wasn't more loving with his ancestor.

McQueen signs, " Tough love is the best love." She has a much better image of Majesty now. 

Hakagure signs, " Thats just stupid, if you love someone provide for them. Of you bring them into the world you are responsible for them until you die. I hated giving my parents half my paycheck just because I'm their first born. Tough live is lie." 

Calypso signs, " Alright damn no need to make us blind we get it. Shit what is this? " In the notes is the five blacked boxes.

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, " We will find out one day they have never been investigated. I doubt we will have access to them anytime soon. Let's get going Solkor has solved one of our biggest issues." 

BABYMAKERXCREAM signs, " Do you mean that consumable he gave you." She didn't investigate it much because its a consumable which means temporary she is interested in permanent power. 

MagmaHeart signs, " Yeah it looked so cool boss, you said it powerful device." 

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, " Yeah it sort of like a wish granter device. Crippiling Desert has three of them and sold two of to build their fleet. Lucky for us one of our spies was a negotiator and has delayed delivery by a few weeks." 

X2CU signs, " Yeah I have been wondering about that, how are the eight of suppose to get this running." 

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, " Do you know what makes all Raiders special?" 

McQueen signs, "They fast, strong, and hit like a ton of bricks." She can also see that the Typhoon Realm Raider must score full marks on every parameter. 

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, " Most important of all is the crewing requirement which only needs three people at minimum. Of course a full crew is better but we are only trying to get it back to the surface. 

Hakagure signs, "Boss I think she means how are going to get it running?" The entire flashes agreement they all under the impression that something more must be done. There is no way that this treasure is just theirs. 

SKY Ocean Hunter signs, " Let me show you all the wonder of super construction." SKY Ocean Hunter pulls out the three moon key to the Typhoon Realm Raider. The entire ship comes alive a loud humpback whale of a pop. World Ships are separated by function but are tied together by the fact that each of them are self sufficient, meaning that they operate with the need the stop. 

SKY Ocean Hunter doesn't know the tech company behind it but the palace is also a such a super structure but unlike the ship its living components need maintenance. The records state this was critical system the entire Barren Ocean spent generation removing this flaw from the World ships. 

The Typhoon Realm Raider uses bioengineering in all its components, features like the regenerative hull and adaptive engines are part of those system along with many non critical systems. Though the pod wishes to explore SKY Ocean Hunter leads them all the bridge. Which is located in the centre of the ship. As a Raider the most sensitive parts are protected by almost eight hundred meters of structures. 

Wonder bubbles pop as open mouth find a full restaurant along the way. The internal map is even more impressive, the ship lay out is built to accommodate an entire military base. The core has many secured areas. While the outer areas are more for civilians and even the atrium on the top floor is a park meant for guest. 

McQueen signs, " They don't skimp out of the luxury do they." 

Calypso signs, " Most Lostech is like this, they have extremely high standards. What for us is overkill and unnecessary just look at the basic flat layout. Its a three bedroom house not a flat. " The map can be downloaded to her personal hud and some ship function are already available to her. 

X2CU signs, " Do you know what this means? " She shows MagmaHeart and Hakagure several hundred red blimps on a console she is looking at. They eventually show it to McQueen who calls over Calypso and Smittenkitten69 who was kissing the weapons console. 

SKY Ocean Hunter using his key is busy assigning himself administration rights the runes from the control system making the process much faster than he thought. The runes are compatible with the World ship or rather it is probably derived from rune contr system.

Calypso says, " SKY Ocean Hunter, I think you should really come over here and take a look at this I'm not sure you are going gto like what you see." She isn't sure of what the already means but she knows when something is not supposed to be there and a big yellow flashing harzard sign is definitely not suppose to be there.
