Chapter 1381 - 542: Rebels (Part 2)
Upon hearing this, Alka raised an eyebrow.
Interesting.
Then he waved his hand lightly towards the three ships in the distance.
Suddenly, a fierce wind arose.
Heading into the wind, the speed of the three sailing ships was immediately restricted, while the currents below quickly lifted the ironclad ship forward.
It was as if the ocean waves were split in the middle.
This side pushed them to swiftly escape while the other pushed forward to obstruct the enemy’s actions.
The waves and the gale caused the three ships to continuously retreat, as if they were reversing.
The scene was quite interesting.
Quickly, the three ships were pushed out of view, and the whole process was exceptionally fast.
Watching this scene, the captain next to Alka looked at Alka with some astonishment.
This alone was enough to demonstrate Alka’s strength.
Being able to accomplish such things meant that Alka certainly wasn’t a nobody.
He looked closely at Alka.
Then his expression became even more surprised.
"Are you, Master Alka?"
Alka nodded.
After all, judging by the distance, they were nearing the Landmark Island, their destination.
𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
This should count as entering the scope of the Linked Seas, so it’s normal to be recognized.
Not to mention he was a member of the Holy Machine Church.
"Thank you for your assistance."
Under Alka’s control, their ship soon sailed beside the Dawn Sound.
Simon was the first to jump aboard.
He looked at the dilapidated ship, waved his hand, and six variously sized rotating square iron blocks entangled his hand.
These iron blocks rotated and entwined.
Various iron materials melted and became repair materials, and quickly repaired each damaged part of the ship.
It was like reassembling an ironclad ship, looking very magical.
"Impressive." The captain couldn’t help but say as he watched this scene.
It must be the ability of the Treasure.
Primarily, it’s the combining method that seems very knowledgeable about ironclad ships.
Alka looked at him and asked: "If you don’t mind, could you tell me what exactly is the situation here now?"
The captain nodded.
"The nearest Landmark Island is Haimen Island. The Landmark Island and its surrounding islands are within the Kanshi Island Kingdom’s sphere of influence.
However, a few years ago, those oppressed by the Kanshi Island Kingdom formed a resistance organization, currently engaged in warfare with the Kanshi Island Kingdom.
We... are merely affected by it. Although the resistance organization does not hold much hostility towards us, there are always some among them who believe the Holy Machine Church is one of their oppressors."
"War?" Alka couldn’t help but speak.
Seeing the scene, he immediately thought of the God of War.
This was his most usual method.
Before Alka had watched throughout history from the river of time, he had obtained information from intelligence.
Yet the church member in front of him evidently did not know much, so not much could be asked.
But it can be basically confirmed as the handiwork of the God of War.
The Holy Machine Church will not meddle in worldly power struggles between forces like this.
Or rather, even if they wanted to interfere, they currently lack the strength and ability.
After all, the Four Gods Church is focusing all their main forces and efforts on the World Scar and various problems around it now.
"We mainly have some resources to transport to the World Scar.
Instead, the resistance organization just happens to lack these resources, so naturally, some take risks."
He looked at Alka and the others and couldn’t help but say: "If you plan to go to Haimen Island, my suggestion is not to go.
It’s chaotic there now, and all resources are heavily restricted.
It’s better to head straight to your destination."
Upon hearing the captain’s advice.
Alka nodded.
He roughly understood his meaning.
Before Alka could ask further, the captain directly took out a map and handed it to him.
It was precisely the map of the island chain around, with the Trial Island marked outside, but the direction wouldn’t be a problem.
"Is the church situation very dire here?" Simon asked beside him.
He seemed somewhat concerned about this.
Upon hearing this, the captain instead shook his head.
"It’s fine, although the Landmark Island is Haimen Island. But the church’s headquarters isn’t there. To be honest, the royal family of the Kanshi Island Kingdom is quite obnoxious.
But the church island should be a neutral zone now and has accepted many refugees, so resources might be scarce there.
If you plan to go there, it may be hard to get supplies."
After chatting for a while and understanding the situation of the surrounding seas, they parted ways.
This ironclad ship was transporting materials to converge resources at other linked seas.
Alka and the others were heading from the link to pass through the middle.
After sailing for a few days.
They saw remnants of ships drifting from beside and throughout the sea.
"It seems the warfare here is indeed fierce." Jason was lost in thought and murmured.
Alka nodded.
Indeed it is.
Just after saying that, they saw from afar, another sea battle seemingly occurring.
Two fleets were tugging and bombarding each other.
In such a scene, Alka and the others slightly adjusted their course and sailed directly forward to pass through.
