A century ago, the Brilliant Star, like the Sea Mist, was once a frigate of the Lost Homeland.
However, few people know that these two legendary warships had encountered
What, and how did it become what it is now step by step.
The Sea Mist, commanded by "Iron Vice Admiral" Tirian, once became the main battleship of the Frost City-State after several twists and turns.
The ship was called the "unsinkable ship" and the "breathing wreck". It was severely damaged many times during the battle.
However, it was as if there was an immortal soul controlling it, allowing it to escape from the fate of being doomed to sink again and again.
After repeated transformations that almost violated the principles of shipbuilding, it gradually became a giant steel ship.
beast.
Legend has it that the ship even feeds directly on steel and seabed minerals, and will eat a lot of them during its night voyages when no one is watching.
Click on yourself to grow turrets and armor plates.
As for the Brilliant Star, which was inherited by the "Sea Witch" Lucrecia, it was less close to the civilized world.
The world is shrouded in mystery. In fact, apart from a few members of the Explorers' Association and those who often visit the border,
Apart from the patrolling Vatican fleet, ordinary captains on the vast ocean had no chance to see what this ship looked like with their own eyes.
Those who have had the pleasure of seeing the Brilliant Star describe the ship as follows:
"It's obviously not completely part of our reality anymore. The ship actually sank at least once, and
Half of its structure was lost in the vast sea, and half of its hull was like a ghost, showing the appearance of a century ago.
The other half of the ship was twisted into a strange and bizarre shape by the witch's power, and its bow was covered with
The cursed object is full of clanking machines and magical equipment. The crew members on the ship have long been dead, and the soulless creatures are
Instead of normal sailors, automatons and cursed rag dolls scurried about the deck.
"There is no doubt that the ship is a corpse on the move - or, rather, half a deformed corpse, dragging
Half its soul."
Lucrecia's eyes slowly swept across her ship and she nodded slightly with satisfaction.
The Brilliant Star was in good shape, and her crew were cheerful.
She knew how her ship was described—and how her brother's ship, the Sea Mist, was described.
Knowing that many captains feared them, second only to their father who had returned from the Warp.
But she didn't care about it. She only interacted with a few humans on weekdays, and those people either had abundant
Courage, or have a wealth of knowledge, or at least have experienced some real adventures, those who can use reason to
Just communicate with her in a normal manner, that's enough.
She and her brother are still considered part of the real world and are considered "on the side of humanity," even though many
People think that both the Sea Mist and the Brilliant Star are cursed, and the above perception will not change.
In the final analysis, there are too many cursed things in this world, and almost every city-state is fighting against countless
The anomalies and strange phenomena of the Qing Dynasty are always with us, and even modern human civilization is described by some as being "cursed".
In this cursed world, there is room for two strange ships.
Lucrecia slowly stepped down from her "stage" that was blooming like a mechanical flower and walked to the bow deck.
Clockwork puppets in funny masks jingled past her, and a
A large rag doll with sewn ribbons ran over from the side and uttered a shrill voice in front of her: "Mistress! Mistress!
Good morning! Good morning!"
"It's almost noon." Lucrecia said casually. She walked past the doll and stood on the bow, looking into the distance.
square.
She saw an extremely magnificent gray-white fog wall, standing on the distant sea like a huge curtain at the edge of the world.
Connecting the sky and the sea, it presents an extremely majestic and spectacular posture.
That's the "border".
That great wall of fog has many names—World's Edge, the Great Fog, the Misty Barrier, and its most formal name is
The name should be "Eternal Curtain".
But Lucrecia prefers to call it simply "the border".
That's what my father called it.
Normally, this eternal curtain is like a circular barrier, covering all known sea areas, and
It fluctuates slightly within a relatively fixed range. It will neither shrink nor expand. It is just a fixed natural phenomenon.
elephant.
But in rare cases, part of its barrier will suddenly "appear" inside the civilization and collapse inward.
This fog wall that suddenly appears and collapses in the real dimension will cause terrible disasters in the process.
The matter is dragged into the depths of the world, and even the door to the subspace is opened - this terrible disaster is called
“Border collapse”.
For captains who often sail on the vast ocean, border collapse is more of a threat than storms, turbulence, and mass hysteria.
Add scary things.
The only good news is that this collapse doesn't happen often.
Lucrecia spent most of her time in the border areas, observing and studying them. She also tried
Summarizing the movement of the thick fog and trying to find out why it suddenly collapsed inwards - a hundred years ago, her father
My parents have done this before.
But to this day, no one has been able to uncover the secret of this curtain.
What did my father discover or "hear" at that time that made him suddenly decide to pass through the dense fog
Fog, to find Anomaly No. 0
Lucrecia withdrew her gaze from the border.
In the Borderlands, do not gaze too long at the Eternal Veil, though there is no clear evidence that the fog has
It has the property of devouring the mind and affecting thinking, but in the vast sea, especially in places far away from civilized cities, looking at anyone
Any target on the sea has inherent risks.
God knows what is out there that spreads with “gaze”.
A melodious whistle broke the tranquility of the border waters.
Lucrecia looked in the direction of the sound and saw some tiny silhouettes suddenly appearing on the edge of the giant wall of thick fog.
The silhouette slowly approached, and finally the outline of a ship appeared.
There were three ships, the most advanced steel warships, driven by powerful steam cores, and they were heading towards the brilliant
It came to the location of the Brilliant Star, but it was just a chance encounter.
The other party honked first, which was a greeting - in this border area, no matter who you meet, as long as the other party is not Asian
The evil god of space, that is something to be happy about.
"Madam," Luni came over, and a dull voice came from the clockwork maid's body. "It's the patrol of the Holy See.
Team... Visual confirmation, Firebringer Church."
"... only the Firebringers and Storm Cultists would patrol so close to the Eternal Veil," said Lucrece.
Ya sighed softly, "They are a bunch of desperate guys."
"Want a response?" Luni asked.
"... ...Hit them in greeting," Lucrecia whispered, "and give thanks for our continuing civilization.

There were not many customers in the antique shop today. Apart from a pair of unremarkable ornaments that were sold this morning, no one else came.
Step into the store.
Nina sat at the counter holding a mechanics textbook, concentrating on studying the intricate mechanisms on it.
From time to time, he would pick up the draft book beside him and draw on the blank space. Duncan sat in the cabinet
Inside the desk, he curiously flipped through Nina's history textbook while making some notes in his notebook.
record.
Only Shirley had nothing to do. She wanted to go home, but she didn't dare to leave. She wanted to talk to Nina, but she couldn't understand her.
She was studying something, and after walking around the nearby shelves for several rounds out of boredom, she finally couldn't help but grumble.
Get up: "Is it really so interesting to watch?"
"Interesting!" Nina raised her head. "Besides, my final exam is coming up soon, so I have to hurry up and review.
OK."
Duncan also looked up at Shirley and said, "If you are really bored, you can also find a book to read... I have
A brief history of the city-state era, do you want to read it?"
Shirley glanced at the books in Duncan's hand, opened her mouth, and showed an embarrassed look on her face: "I... I
I don’t know how to read…”
Duncan suddenly stopped looking, and Nina next to him looked up in surprise.
"Why are you so surprised?" Shirley looked at this and widened her eyes as if she had been hurt.
I... I have said that I sneaked into the school, I... Is it strange that I never went to school? I was raised by a dog... "
Duncan was indeed a little surprised, but after seeing Shirley's reaction, he was more impressed: "You can't read.
You were able to sneak into the school without any hesitation. I don't know whether to say you are too confident or you trust Ah Gou too much.
The cognitive interference capacity of the spectrum. ”
"Agou's cognitive interference ability is very reliable!" Shirley immediately defended, "It's just... just..."
The girl's face turned slightly red, and she seemed to be hesitant to say the following words, but Duncan guessed what she wanted to say.
He smiled: "You have the guts to argue with me - you see, there is nothing to be afraid of, right?"
"That's right, my uncle is so kind," Nina, a silly girl who didn't understand anything, also laughed beside her.
Hu Tudi chimed in, "Although he was very irritable for a while before, he's fine now!"
"I..." Shirley opened her mouth, but suddenly she didn't know how to communicate with the "uncle and nephew" in front of her.
It took him a long time to utter another word.
Duncan smiled and shook his head, but just as he was about to say something else, a familiar breath
But suddenly appeared in his perception!
Duncan was slightly startled, and the next second, he figured out who this breath came from--
Vanna! The young inquisitor is approaching this antique room... and very quickly!
