The final inspection result was that they were allowed to pass, but they had to be escorted the entire time. Their every move had to be under their surveillance.

“In any case, your plan of ‘letting them free’ appears to have failed. When the time comes, do you plan on letting them walk the plank on our return trip, or do you want them to be taken away?” William teased Hobbs.

Hobbes had planned on releasing the three empire sailors in Ava State, but it looked like it would be difficult to find an opportunity.

!!

Hobbs didn’t reply to William. Instead, he looked worriedly at the distance.

Not far away, on a larger and more gorgeously decorated elven longship, the elves who had done the inspection were reporting something to an elf wearing gorgeous golden scales. As they spoke, they pointed at Hobbs’s ship from time to time.

“Guess what they’re talking about?”

William asked after watching with Hobbes for a while.

“I don’t know… But ever since those pointy-ears got off the ship, my eyelids have been twitching. Usually, such a situation only happens when a storm is about to happen.”

Do the people of this world believe in this too?

William resisted the urge to make a snide remark and turned his gaze to the approaching Mist Port.

Isu City was a voyager city in Ava State. Half of the city was built on land, and the other half was built on ships. Almost half of the city’s residents had lived on ships all their lives. Other than receiving the Holy Fire’s blessing and returning to the Holy Fire, they had never set foot on land.

Back then, during the Moon Realm crisis, a quarter of Isu City was dismantled into a fleet to help the Vic Continent. High Elf reinforcements rode this fleet to reinforce Ravenwood’s Fairy Bay and helped the Forest Elves resist the Ash March which was under the command of Ruin Demon God’s three Demon Generals. They successfully diverted the attention of the Ruin Demon God, Ordin, and bought precious time for Judgment to raid the other party’s empty lair.

As he was busy raiding, William didn’t see the magnificent scene of a quarter of the city steering over back then. He only heard the battle reports afterward—there wasn’t even a cinematic. However, he could only imagine how shocking the scene was based on the battle report and how prosperous Isu City, the city of voyagers, would be.

But after 1,008 years, when William finally saw this legendary city for the first time, he blurted out: “How bleak…”

Just as the archives described, the densely packed ships here connected to form a city over the sea. However, unlike the document, this city didn’t constantly change with the movement of the ships because the ships were connected by chains, forming artificial islands.

As it hadn’t been activated for too long, most of the hull was covered in barnacles that could kill trypophobics on the spot.

“It’s been like this since 800 years ago,” Hobbs said to William.

“It’s said that the ships here have been cleaned more than ten times. The ships left behind aren’t even a third of the ships from the Kings’ War era.”

“Why compare it to the Kings’ War era?” William asked in confusion.

“That was Isu City’s golden age; the few kingdoms with equal strength hoped to obtain the military support of Ava State. Therefore, there was an endless stream of trading fleets,” Hobbs replied.

“Later on, after the storm sealed off the Shattered Sea, the grand scene of thousands of ships setting sail at the same time disappeared. Now, other than fishermen, almost all the residents of Isu City have moved to live on land.”
