It turns out that the narrow room and wooden corridor just now are all part of this ship?
Angel looked around. There was no one on the "Spirit World Ghost Ship", which was nearly a hundred meters long and at least two or three levels larger than the "Blue Avenger". The cables and artillery on the deck were randomly placed, like an abandoned stranded ship.
From her point of view, she could only see the mast, deck superstructure, and the black sails painted with no markings painted Pure Black. She guessed that the entire ship was of the same color, floating on Spirit World, as if it were the car of Death.
"Is this a Ghost Ship that can sail on Spirit World?"
Looking at Anne who was standing quietly next to him, Angel asked.
"Yes, it is a Ghost Ship built by the Trensoest Empire from Fourth Epoch. It has a history of two thousand years."
Two thousand years... As long as "Blue Avenger" has a long history, only Ghost Ship can do this. Ordinary ships, even if they only last one-tenth of the time, have already decayed and been damaged.
"Since the real hull has been destroyed, it can only exist in Spirit World, but you must be able to feel that this ship is still 'alive'."
Gently stroking the main mast in the center, Anne's golden eyes flashed with inexplicable emotions.
"The hull was destroyed... are you referring to the ship that ran aground next to the island a few days ago? Is it the one that was destroyed by 'Vice Admiral Dusk'?"
Angel I immediately recalled the fragments under the cliff.
"Oh, 'Vice Admiral Dusk', now that he has pulled in a few broken boats, can he call himself a general even if he is not High Sequence?"
First he made a few sharp comments with disdain, and then Anne nodded and replied:
"Yes, they destroyed the actual part of the ship, but an attack of this magnitude will not damage Ghost Ship, and it will be restored to its original state within a few days if necessary."
Recovering after being attacked, this is very similar to the situation when I used "Calamity" Charm to attack Anne... Angel was thinking, his eyes passed over the surrounding "Ghost Ship", and stayed on Anne.
"So, you actually want me to use 'Calamity' Charm to destroy this Ghost Ship?"
"To be precise, it is its body in Spirit World. It just so happens that that 'Vice Admiral Dusk' destroyed its real part. As long as we deal with the ship under our feet, it will be completely 'dead'."
I'm afraid this is a bit of a waste of resources. This is a Ghost Ship with a history of more than 2,000 years, and it is much larger than the "Blue Avenger" I am interested in!
Angel wanted to say "give me the ship you don't want" for a moment, but considering the identity of the other party High Sequence Beyonder, she finally held back. She took out the last "Calamity" from her pocket, held it between her fingers, and looked at Anne who looked expectant.
"After using Charm just once, my Spirituality has not recovered yet and needs to wait for a while. Why don't you tell me more about the history of this Ghost Ship?"
At this moment, she was extremely looking forward to the Mr. Azik falling from the sky and taking her away from the Spirit World. Of course, it would be better if she could take the Ghost Ship away by the way.
So try to delay as much as possible!
Anne seemed to feel very "safe" in Spirit World, so he did not refuse Angel's request, which was obviously stalling for time. She walked barefoot on the rough deck, came to the side of the ship, and looked down at the seemingly endless Spirit World fog.
Angel followed her, hesitating several times whether to press "Calamity" on "Arbiter" whose back looked a bit like a girl, and tried again to kill her, but did not take action.
Doing this kind of suicide thing is enough once, not to mention that Klein has most likely been "Exile" to a distance, so she doesn't need to attract the other party's attention like this.
"It was built two thousand years ago by the Trensoest Empire. At that time, the flagship of each imperial fleet was what is now called 'Ghost Ship'. Some had amazing firepower, and Demigod had to avoid its edge. Some could withstand the attack of the entire fleet without being damaged. Some could cross the entire battlefield in an instant and appear behind the enemy's weak rear..."
Looking away from the outside, Anne said softly.
"As the 'Ghost Ship' that can shuttle between Spirit World, it was formed in separate formations to attack the opponent's supply lines and harass ports, and made countless military exploits for Tudor-Trunsoest United Empire."
United Empire... Aren't Tudor and Trunsoest the North Continent empire in different eras? Do they exist at the same time and even govern together?
Angel raised his eyebrows and wrote down the word without interrupting the other party's narration.
"Until Four Emperors War, 'Night Emperor' fell, and the four nobles of the empire, Augustus, Castile, Einhorn and Sauron divided the empire's heritage and established the countries of Fifth Epoch, and this Ghost Ship also changed flags several times among them and continued to exist as a battleship.
"In the end, after a certain war, it was almost destroyed, lost its captain and all crew members, and drifted into the depths of the Berserk Sea, until the outside world ended Fourth Epoch and entered Fifth Epoch. The war ended and peace came."
If I hadn't been studying the history of Fourth Epoch recently, I really wouldn't be able to keep up with these contents... Angel listened to Anne's narration with some difficulty, trying hard to remember the key parts.
"It's been stranded here ever since, until today?"
Although Ghost Ship can repair itself and will not rot in the sea, a ship that has been stranded on an isolated island for thousands of years is still beyond Angel's imagination.
"No, Emperor Roselle discovered it more than a hundred years ago."
Anne shook her head, the black hair on the back of her head fluttering, making her serious face look a little cute.
"Ghost Ship, which returned to the civilized world, became the flagship of an expedition fleet, explored a safe route in the mysterious Berserk Sea, opened the colonial era of the Southern Continent, and even fought several large-scale naval battles with other countries there, almost Reenactment its style in Fourth Epoch.
"Until... in his later years, the Emperor personally expelled it from Intis's fleet system and ordered the empty ship to return to the depths of the sea, hide itself, and not allow it to sink until he 'returned'.
"So, this ancient Ghost Ship sailed alone near the Berserk Sea, avoiding the increasingly dense waterways and more and more ships, and even hid directly in Spirit World, until now."
Speaking of this, Anne's golden eyes showed a trace of sadness, as if he was feeling sorry for the fate of Ghost Ship, the ship under his feet that had gone through several dynasties and was finally alone.
"So, what is the name of this Ghost Ship?"
Angel took over and asked, but she already had a guess in her heart.
"In different eras, it had multiple names, Balancer, Imperial Glory, Black Death..."
As he spoke, Anne moved his spotless bare feet back to the center of the deck, opened his hands, lifted up his skirt and saluted Angel as if to introduce himself.
"But one hundred and fifty-six years ago, in the name of His Majesty Roselle Gustav, it was assigned as the flagship of the Intis Empire expeditionary force guerrilla fleet and named, Queen Anne's Revenge."
Sure enough...
Looking at the pitch-black sail and Anne with flying black hair below, Angel confirmed his guess.
This "Arbiter", this young woman who called herself Anne, this mysterious person who died on the spot with "Calamity" in her body, but was resurrected instantly...
It is the ship "Ghost Ship" itself.
"So, you are the ship?"
Angel confirmed cautiously.
After the excitement of self-introduction passed, Anne, in a light yellow dress and bare feet, returned to her previous calmness. She nodded and replied:
"Yes, I am the consciousness of 'Queen Anne's Revenge', not a living Beyonder. Of course, near the location of Ghost Ship located in Spirit World, in reality 'I' can also use its Beyonder Ability, and these are provided by the Beyonder Characteristic of 'Arbiter'. It is sealed in the hull in a special production method and becomes the source of power for Ghost Ship.
"In my mind, I also have all the memories since this ship was built... I remember the huge armada of Tudor-Trunsoest United Empire, which almost covered the sea; I remember that Four Emperors War broke out at the Intervening Sea, Fifth Epoch is absolutely invincible Unimaginable large-scale naval battle; remember the hull numbers of all Ghost Ship that were sunk in Pale Calamity, and the lament and sadness when they died; remember the discord of wandering among countless pirates for thousands of years, changing hands many times, being traded and robbed as goods... and the joy of being discovered by Emperor Roselle, renamed, and returning to civilized society."
At some point, the girl in front of Angel had red eyes, and a drop of tear flowed from her golden eyes across her beautiful cheek. Before it fell on the deck, it disappeared into the void.
Girl—maybe it's a bit wrong to call her that, but at this time, this woman who is over two thousand years old and possesses powerful extraordinary power looks like a girl who is confused about her destiny in Angel's eyes.
"But now, I just want to end this eternal life. Under the order of Roselle, Queen Anne's Revenge cannot terminate itself, and is not allowed to actively seek dangerous situations and seek death. Until recently, I found a way to bypass the restrictions..."
After stabilizing his mood a little, Anne continued.
"You mean like this now?" Angel asked.
"Yes, this is what I have said many times before. Please attack me with all your strength and attack this 'Queen Anne's Revenge'."
Backed by a huge mast with a history of more than 2,000 years, painted in the United Empire's revered black, and still as clean as new, this person bypassed her former identity by assuming the identity of "Anne" Following the captain's command Emperor Roselle, the girl who asked for help from Angel stretched out her right hand. Her white arm looked a little desolate in the glow of Spirit World.
"Please, kill me, kill this Ghost Ship whose heart has been left in the past and does not want to continue sailing."
