Chapter 397: 141. Noland, hit me~_2

Modern warships of the technology side rely on a combat command automatic control system to manage the ship’s commands, communications, navigation, target identification, and weapon launches.

Placing this sort of system on an alchemy ship would correspond to the Alchemy Sage who controls the Sage Space.

The Alchemy Sage has control over every detail of the Sage Space.

He can observe everything around him through the alchemy array on the outer edge of the Sage Space, completing navigation and target identification tasks.

With just a thought, he can adjust the mechanical devices of the Sage Space to give orders to crew members located throughout the ship, which in turn, guide the crew to operate the alchemy cannons and launch attacks on targets.

It can be said that when alchemical constructs become advanced enough to replace crew members, these alchemy ships, transformed from the Sage Space, will usher in an era of Alchemy Sages fighting solo on the sea.

Upon boarding the ship, Noland was immediately captivated by the intricate array patterns within.

All walls, floors and ceilings were covered with transparent glass.

Beneath the glass, walls were filled with alchemy array patterns consisting of straight and curved lines. Elemental energy glows, representing the operating arrays, flashed rapidly along the patterns.

The entire ship was supported by these large, complex, and highly precise alchemy arrays.

As for why the alchemy ship was designed in a tetrahedral shape, Noland thought it was because “triangles are the most stable.”

The presence of alchemy arrays allows alchemy ships to minimize the resistance from water and air. They can navigate the seas with much less power output than technologically-based ships.

With the difficulty of navigation reduced, alchemy ships no longer need to have a streamlined design.

Designers would focus on maximizing the ship’s defensive capabilities, leading to tetrahedral ships with triangular faces on all sides.

After entering the alchemy ship, Noland glanced around and released his Deconstruction technique.

He walked and observed until he finally stopped in the ship’s visitor’s lounge.

The commander of the ship, who is also the Alchemy Sage, had to stay in the central control room to control his Sage Space, and had no time to meet with Esme and the others.

A sixth-rank Alchemist was sent to welcome Esme and her party.

The two sides exchanged information during their brief conversation, and within half an hour, they devised a plan of action.

The Lost Sea Fog that had enveloped the Region No.117 nearshore waters had been there for four hours.

Based on previous observations, the fog would dissipate within an hour at most.

The gap in the extraterrestrial space above Region No.117 nearshore waters was closed by the wizards of the Star Filtering Net.

As soon as the Lost Sea Fog dissipated, the alchemy ship could take action.

This plan was unanimously agreed upon by the Golden Merchant’s Sword, Esme, and the ship’s commander.

There was one area that needed extra caution.

The ceremony to communicate with the extraterrestrial space pollution took place in the lower deck cargo hold of the cargo ship.

Above the ceremony, within the space, there were 2,000 Biochemical Soldiers.

The life level of Biochemical Soldiers is far beyond ordinary people, similar to an Imperial Lieutenant, making them very appetizing sacrifices for extraterrestrial space pollution.

If all two thousand Biochemical Soldiers were used as sacrifices for the extraterrestrial space pollution, the pollution level in Region No.117 nearshore area could be astonishing, even beyond imagination.

The exact situation would be known to everyone after waiting for an hour.

The moment the fog in Region No.117 dissipated, a sinister black space appeared before everyone’s eyes. From a distance of more than ten kilometers, the black space seemed to cover half the sky like a black curtain.

With the boundary between Regions No.117 and No.118 as the dividing line, the two adjacent sea areas displayed completely different scenes.

In Region No.118, the seawater flowed as usual, with the morning light shining on the sea, glittering in the sunlight.

However, in Region No.177, there was no sky, no light, and no seawater. The place where the natural landscape should have appeared was replaced by a dim and lightless black space.

The eyes could not penetrate the black space nor could sunlight illuminate it.

A hair’s breadth apart, the two distinct scenes of the fog-shrouded Region No.117 and the morning-lit Region No.118 became two separate worlds.

This was just one of the strange phenomena.

Another anomaly was:

Without the constraint of the Lost Sea Fog, the black space no longer stayed obediently within Region No.117.

It was slowly accelerating and expanding in all directions.

This bizarre spectacle surprised everyone on the ship, but it did not cause panic.

Noland had already shared relevant information, and everyone was prepared. However, he did not disclose the name “Sisibirk” to anyone. Even Denise Green only knew the appearance and color of the tentacles.

According to Denise, extraterrestrial space pollutants with tentacle-like appearances were common, but their abilities varied greatly. She needed more information from Noland to confirm the origin of the tentacles to the professor.

The incomplete tentacle that appeared last night was privately referred to by Noland as an offspring of Shubick. “Offspring of XXX” is the formal name for extraterrestrial space pollutants within the Ulnas Circle.

Region No.117 was transformed into a “Pollution Zone” by Shubick’s offspring, imitating the extraterrestrial space where its main body resides.
