Chapter 152: Chapter 152 Mechanical Airship

Following that, Anvis stayed at Ogman’s house for three days.

Seeing as they were his financial benefactors, Ogman generously allowed the two to stay temporarily in an empty room of his house.

Although the type Ogman usually looked down on the most was those with heads stuffed full of muscle, bodies that seemed to be constantly exuding the smell of alcohol and sweat, and who only knew how to swing their weapons around and kill without thinking— the image of a mercenary.

But after he received the first batch of various materials sufficient for the current experiments from Jom,

The image of the two men suddenly grew in his heart, and even their rugged mercenary faces became much more amiable and handsome.

However, after just a short period, that sense of amiability gradually disappeared along with his patience.

No matter what he did, the image of Anvis always appeared in his peripheral vision.

While conducting bloodline experiments, Anvis was hovering by his side.

When he finished the experiment and went to dine, Anvis was hovering by his side.

While changing his experimental protective clothing, Anvis was watching him through a door.

Even when he couldn’t bear it anymore and tried to meditate for some peace, in the meditation space, Anvis’s bearded mercenary face would still appear!

Damn it! It’s outrageous!

During this time, Ogman was feeling a bit mentally drained.

....

After fully enhancing the Twisted Seed, Anvis left a variety of High Rank bloodlines, including the bloodline of the Curse Plutonium Dragon, with Ogman.

Then, with his frenzied farewell, Anvis left with Jom.

The Legendary Bloodline was not something he could give him now.

Even though the Twisted Seed had already influenced his consciousness and locked his loyalty in fanaticism,

With Ogman’s current progress in experiments, letting him use the Legendary Bloodline as a basis for trying to build [Perfect Blood] now

Would be like asking someone with no experience in construction to oversee the building of a skyscraper.

Even if given to him now, it would be meaningless. It’s better to start the experiments with various ordinary Eighth and Ninth Rank bloodlines to accumulate experience.

Soon after, the two arrived at the ’Giant’ branch of the Mechanical Aviation Chamber of Commerce, located at number nineteen on Violet Street.

The location of the Chamber of Commerce is a sprawling stone structure, the bottom of which is not much different from other buildings.

However, on one side of the roof, a huge mushroom-shaped structure resembling a deep pink lighthouse juts out, stretching into the endless sky.

That is the docking point for Mechanical Airships, where airship cabins will extend a specially made Demonized Metal walkway, connecting with a unique interface on top of the tower.

Today at half-past two in the afternoon, a Mechanical Airship flying from the Royal Capital of the Loran Kingdom towards Delas Port will pass by the stop in Violet City.

After the booming development of Magic-guided Mechanical technology, and as a pilot site for the Continent Magic Council, the level of mechanical integration in the Yiter Federation has steadily increased, ranking first among the three major federations on the Continent.

This new term "Mechanical" is even coveted by nobles and wealthy businessmen from various kingdoms within the Federation.

Because of the different national conditions of the continents’ nations, the two Great Empires with deep roots that pursue more grassroots stability are more wary and conservative towards it.

However, for the many small kingdoms lacking heritage and strength, the emerging Magic-guided Mechanical technology has shown them a brand new path of development.

Unlike the simpler, more nimble Magic Equipment made based on Alchemy,

Magic-guided Mechanicals are usually assembled from a large number of parts, having complex structures and massive volumes.

Although most of the raw materials for making various parts are Low Rank Demonized Materials,

When paired with high-powered Magic sources, they are able to perform comparably to Middle and High Rank Magic Equipment.

At the inception of Magic-guided Mechanicals, there were quite a few shortcomings, such as being somewhat bulky, not very agile in operation, low Magic conversion rates, and sometimes questionable safety.

However, its advantages cover all the above-mentioned drawbacks:

Magic-guided Mechanicals require very little of their users, in fact, they have no requirements—

Some low-level Magic-guided Mechanicals can even be operated by ordinary commoners who are not Professionals!

That is to say, as long as sufficient Mechanical techniques are developed, an abundance of low-rank Professionals could completely serve as mid-to-high-rank Professionals.

......

The interior decoration of Giant Aviation is simple yet elegant, and as a newly emerged industry of just over a decade, it appears exceedingly prosperous.

Travelers lined up one after another, chatting with each other; low-rank Spellcasters in apprentice robes; scholars with round-rimmed glasses sitting on floating boxes, immersed in thick books...

The constant flow of people coming and going presents a scene of bustling prosperity.

However, the passengers here are mostly Professionals, with common folk being extremely rare.

After waiting in line for a short while, it was finally Anvis’s turn to purchase tickets.

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

The ticket clerk at the window was a gorgeous, mature woman with blonde hair, dressed in a deep blue Chamber of Commerce uniform, with a slightly relaxed white neckpiece, and a rather enticing figure.

Seeing the two travelers in front of her, she greeted them with a professional, sweet smile, politely inquiring.

"Silver Spotted Flower number, two single-journey Mechanical Airship tickets to Delas..."

As Anvis spoke, he casually glanced at the airship ticket prices embossed on the wall with glowing Magic Text next to the window.

First class cabin: five hundred Gold Coins

Second class cabin: one hundred and fifty Gold Coins

Third class cabin: ten Gold Coins

Steerage: one Gold Coin and ten silver coins

"Second class cabin—"

Anvis had often taken Mechanical Airships in his previous life and was familiar with all the cabins.

Steerage was essentially equivalent to sitting tickets on a train from his previous life, with everyone crammed into one large room, which was very inconvenient.

Considering their current identities, Anvis chose the second class, which was neither too high nor too low.

"Alright, here are your tickets, I wish you a pleasant journey—"

After receiving the Gold Coins, the ticket lady skillfully operated the Magic Device to create two silver-white metal pieces emanating a special Magic Fluctuation, and handed them over to Anvis.

With tickets in hand, the two entered the waiting room at the top of the Chamber of Commerce building.

According to the schedule, the ’Silver Spotted Flower’ airship is expected to arrive at the aerial mooring point in about two Magic Times.

During this waiting period, in order to entertain the passengers, the Chamber of Commerce had thoughtfully provided a display of reading materials.

On the shelves were the latest edition of the day’s newspapers, as well as a collection of biographies of heroes and anthologies of poetry written by authors.

All these were included in the airship ticket price and did not require any additional expenditure from the passengers.

Since the Mechanical Airship has not been around for long, no one has yet thought to place advertisements here.

Anvis casually pulled out a copy of the Federation Newspaper, scanning through it briefly.

The bold, enlarged headline in black ink printed prominently at the top of the page.

[The King of the Kingdom passed away three days ago; the Second Prince may ascend to Cuijing Palace!]

"Leka Kingdom?"

Anvis’s spirits suddenly lifted.

He had some recollection of the Leka Kingdom, where a coup had occurred, leading to a second surge in the Mechanical revolution.
