The Starship Sets Sail

In fact, Kronos was completely bewildered, because he had no idea what the Mask was.

Kronos carefully tidied up his Western Capital and then realized that this Mask should, perhaps, probably belonged to the Wolf Family.

Kronos now has two rather useless items: a Cloak he bought in Bayam and this Mask.

Kronos believed that both items were sealed, and he was unable to unseal them, but he still kept them with him.

However, in Kronos's memory, this Mask was clearly metallic and had a Feathered Serpent engraved on it, but now it's a little different.

After carefully picking up the Mask, Kronos examined it several times and finally confirmed that it was indeed the Mask in question.

The Mask's color changed from metallic to Pale, and the Feathered Serpent pattern on Mask disappeared. Because of the Shadow of the Phoenix, a Blood Red Phoenix pattern now appeared on it.

Everything had changed, but Kronos was still certain it was it, mainly because the Mask bore the surname Eggers.

Kronos had personally packed this Mask into his backpack before setting sail, but for some reason, the Mask underwent such a drastic change.

Before Kronos could continue his investigation, a burst of Black Energy suddenly erupted from the Mask, startling Kronos so much that he threw Mask away.

Black is not an auspicious color; if it causes any trouble, Kronos's small frame might not be able to handle it.

However, after the Black Energy emerged from the Mask, it simply dissipated around Mask.

Kronos observed for a long time before he dared to slowly approach and then pick up the Mask.

As soon as Kronos got his hands on the Mask, he sensed something was wrong.

Although Kronos was quite certain that the Mask was Beyonder Item, it was nothing special in any way.

It offers no Spirituality response; to the Eyes of Mystery Prying, it is nothing more than an ordinary Mask.

Kronos was so certain because the Eye of Time could not observe it.

The time-related skills possessed by Kronos are quite different from the abilities provided by the Hermit Pathway.

These time-related abilities did not come from any Potion or Pathway; they were entirely lent to him by the Time Stone.

Although Kronos's rank and power are low, the Time Stone is not.

Therefore, some methods can deceive the Eyes of Mystery Prying, but Kronos believes that it would be quite difficult for anyone below the level of True God to deceive the Time Stone.

Therefore, Kronos was certain that the Mask and the Cloak were both valuable items, but he either didn't know how to use them or they were sealed away.

But things are different now. The moment Kronos got his hands on the Mask again, he immediately sensed something was amiss.

In his Eyes of Mystery Prying, the Mask possessed an abundance of Beyonder Ability, and he could also sense a resonance between the Mask and his own Spirituality.

The product is definitely good, but you can't just try it blindly. If the negative effects are extremely serious, then it would be a waste of money.

So Kronos took out the Appraiser's Glasses and began to examine the Mask.

Kronos had used these Glasses to examine Mask and Cloak before, but to no avail. This time, however, it was different; Kronos obtained the Information he wanted.

"Death God Mask: Crafted using the Beyonder Characteristic of the Sequence 6 Faceless."

"Beyonder Ability: Can change one's face, transforming into any appearance."

"Negative effects: The longer you wear it, the greater the impact on your temperament; you will become more Coldblood."

"Note: This item was worn for a long time by a high-ranking expert in the Death Pathway, thus acquiring the aura of a high-ranking individual and undergoing initial fusion with the blood of the Phoenix Ancestor. Therefore, it possesses some abilities of the Death Pathway and the Door Pathway, which the user needs to explore on their own."

Kronos showed no interest in the description of the Mask, but the notes that followed contained a great deal of Information.

Wearing a high-ranking member of the Death Pathway, and Mask crafted by the Faceless —this must mean the mystery is solved. Could it be the Mask Mr. Azik discarded?

It was imbued with the aura of a high-ranking being, which is why it was able to attract the blood of the Phoenix and fuse with it.

However, with this fusion, what Kronos considered the most perfect Advancement Ritual is gone. This drop of blood wasn't stored; it was fused with the Mask.

Kronos wore an indescribable expression.

But after thinking about it, I felt it was alright, because the previous facts had already proven that he simply didn't have the ability to store this drop of blood.

If he were already prepared to advance to Demigod, he wouldn't need to store the blood; he could Analysis directly and still have a chance of succeeding.

But he clearly couldn't do anything with that drop of blood, so he might as well integrate it into his Mask, which would also enhance his strength.

With a scent reminiscent of Mr. Azik and the blood of Gregrace, this Mask is sure to unleash even greater power.

Kronos removed the Vampire Mask he always wore and put on the Death God Mask.

Kronos was already familiar with the Faceless's abilities, so he simply changed his appearance.

As for the abilities attached to this Death God Mask, Kronos was also aware of them.

It is an ability to intimidate the Undead. If the original owner of this Mask was indeed Mr. Azik Eggers, the "Death Consul of Death," then it is perfectly normal for Mask imbued with His aura to possess the ability to intimidate the Undead.

Kronos could sense that, just as the Appraiser's Glasses had indicated, Gregrace's blood had only initially integrated into the Mask, so the abilities belonging to this drop of blood had not yet developed and would require some more time.

However, for Kronos, the Death God Mask was more practical than the Vampire Mask.

So the Vampire Mask that has been with Kronos for so long can officially retire today.

After reorganizing his belongings, Kronos was ready to exit through the tunnel.

Having not seen the sun for several days, and stuck in this dark and suffocating tunnel, Kronos would have given up long ago if it weren't for this drop of blood.

Under the cover of night, Kronos secretly slipped out of the tunnel and ran to where he had previously parked his carriage.

Perhaps because this horse was really quite docile, so many days have passed and the carriage is still there, yet no one has noticed it.

Kronos only took some important items with him when he went down into the tunnel; his change of clothes and other belongings were still in the carriage.

Since it wasn't lost, it saves him the trouble of buying another one.

After washing up and getting ready, Kronos drove away to the Harbor, preparing to begin the next leg of his journey.

As dawn broke, Kronos returned to Damir Port.

After breakfast, Kronos began inquiring at the Harbor.

Damir Port is quite different from Pritz Harbor; it's much smaller, and finding a ship to depart from there isn't easy.

The passenger ferry doesn't run every day. After the one Kronos took departed, another one came yesterday, but it left late at night.

It's hard to say when the next passenger ship will arrive, since this is just a stopover for supplies and tickets aren't sold regularly.

As for cargo ships, they are much harder to board than passenger ships.

For the people on the cargo ship, their job is to transport the goods to the station.

Picking up someone along the way might bring extra income, but the danger that a person of unknown origin could bring to a cargo ship is immeasurable, so no one would be so foolish as to not understand this.

Having ruled out these two methods, Kronos's only remaining option is the small boats between the Small Island.

Besides serving as a stopover point for large ships to resupply, Damir Port was mainly used for small boats to transport passengers, with each boat capable of carrying about a hundred or eighty people.

The Rorsted Archipelago contain many small islands, and the people living on these Small Island certainly couldn't rely on large ships for trade and communication; they relied on these small boats.

However, after inquiring for a long time, Kronos learned that all the small boats were heading to Bansy Harbor.

South of Damir Island, the closest island is Bansy Island; heading north leads directly to the mainland. Therefore, the small boats traveling from Damir Island are all heading towards Bansy Island.

Kronos even tried to hire a ship at great expense to cross Bansy Island and go directly to Tiana Island, but no one would take the job.

According to these boat owners, small boats are inherently slow and cannot carry enough supplies, making it impossible for them to reach Tiana Island directly.

If there's no real danger, maybe someone would be willing to give it a try.

But there are all sorts of dangers at sea, and nobody's stupid, so nobody would take on this job.

Kronos searched all day, but found no one willing to give it a try.

It's not surprising that these boat owners are like this. Damir Island is relatively close to Bansy Island, so the boats on Damir Island are relatively small and have less ability to withstand risks.

The distance from Bansy Island to Tiana Island is more than twice that from Damir Island to Bansy Island.

Sending a small boat across Bansy Island to Tiana Island is essentially hiring someone to die with Kronos.

That evening, Kronos wandered aimlessly along the Harbor, somewhat resigned.

If it's just danger, Kronos isn't too afraid; Sequence 5 Beyonder is capable of handling this kind of danger.

Therefore, Kronos dared to buy a ship and set sail himself.

But resupply is indeed a major problem.

Kronos wasn't a fisherman, after all; once at sea, he'd have to rely on his Beyonder abilities to survive.

Thinking about this, Kronos became somewhat conflicted.

Is it really impossible to avoid Bansy?

Kronos genuinely didn't want to go there, because it was far too dangerous.

With nothing else to do, Kronos found a place to lie down and gaze at the starry sky.

Since Kronos became Astronomer, gazing at the stars every night had become a habit.

Even though we still haven't made any progress in finding the Astrology, daily stargazing is beneficial for digesting the Potion.

As he gazed at the night sky, Kronos's initially agitated mood gradually calmed down.

Gradually, Kronos fell asleep in this environment.

In his dream, Kronos felt a blue power supporting him, gently rocking him, just like in a cradle. Occasionally, he could hear the gurgling of water and the sound of fish leaping out of the water.

Kronos slept very deeply and of exceptional quality.

Just three hours later, Kronos slowly awoke from his sleep.

I felt a sense of clarity and liberation throughout my body, as if I were New Life.

Just as Kronos was about to investigate what was going on, Kronos casual glance at the starry sky provided the answer.

He clearly saw a Symbol on the horizon.

This is because Kronos was very certain of the meaning this Symbol represented.

That's Pisces; Kronos was that Constellation in both his lives.

Kronos searched diligently for a long time, but couldn't find any Silk about the twelve Constellation. However, to his surprise, Pisces appeared effortlessly after he took a nap.

This isn't just the discovery of one Constellation; more importantly, by finding this one, Kronos might have the opportunity to follow the clues and find the other Constellation.

These Twelve Constellations were originally named by the Greeks based on the Twelve Zodiac Signs Constellation in the night sky.

Once one of them is found, the night sky can be further divided, making it easier to find the other eleven houses or a Constellation within them.

But now is not the time to consider that. Kronos immediately set up Wall of Spirituality, preparing to communicate directly with Pisces.

Although it was late at night, this was still Harbor, and people were still coming and going occasionally.

Kronos knew this wasn't a good time, but opportunities are fleeting. Kronos didn't dare blink, let alone change locations, for fear that if he did, he'd lose sight of Pisces.

After setting up the Wall of Spirituality, Kronos began to try to Analysis Pisces and started communicating with them.

Kronos could sense Pisces's closeness to him; after all, it wasn't him who sought out Pisces today, but rather Pisces "took the initiative" to find him.

But thinking about it, it makes a reasonable assumption. Kronos was Pisces in both his past and present lives, so perhaps he really does have a deep connection with this Constellation.

Therefore, the process of communicating with Pisces was particularly smooth. It didn't take long at all for Kronos to successfully draw upon Pisces ' power using Star Sand.

The Star Sand transformed into two fish, swimming around Kronos. Although they swam Rules, Kronos could still control them, but they could not exceed a range of Fifty Meters.

Through these two fish, Kronos could perceive everything within Fifty Meters radius in detail.

This level of detail was so great that he could see the texture of a grain of sand Fifty Meters away from Kronos through the fish.

Pisces may not seem to have any offensive capabilities, but they are indeed very good at sensing things.

The emergence of this ability gave Kronos a new idea.

Based on this, does that mean Kronos could set sail alone?

As a chemistry student, getting water to drink at sea shouldn't be a problem.

As for food, once the reserves are used up, you can fish at sea.

Pisces ' ability allows them to clearly sense fish within a Fifty Meters radius in the sea. Once they know where the fish are, catching them becomes much easier.

As for the issue of the boat's lack of sturdiness, Kronos did not see it as a problem.

As Astronomer, Kronos could easily use Star Sand as armor to reinforce his small boat, and even use Star Sand to create something like a Propeller.

This is just ordinary Star Sand, and it's not a heavy burden for Kronos. It's a pretty good idea.

Although Kronos is much more composed now, he still yearns for the "show-off" act of riding a dazzling Starship and sailing the Five Seas alone.

So once this thought arose, Kronos was powerless to suppress it, nor did he really want to.

It wasn't until dawn that Kronos finally made his decision.

So after purchasing some supplies at the Harbor, he found a ship owner he had met the day before.

Kronos considered this ship owner's vessel to be the best in the Harbor.

After purchasing the ship, Kronos quietly began to harness the power of Star Sand, covering the entire outer wall of the ship with Star Sand and even creating a Propeller at the bottom of the ship, the kind that is Spirituality driven.

After loading Western Capital onto the ship, Kronos stood at the bow.

The Propeller rotated slowly, propelling the small boat gradually outwards.

By this time, the Harbor was already crowded with people, all watching as a person stood atop a dazzling Starship and sailed out of Damir Port.
