Chapter 1338: Chapter 885: Fleet Arrival (2)

Daniel grabbed the voucher, shouting roughly to his teammates, "Let’s go, let’s go! To the supply point. Damn it, the antidotes and sharpening stones will be a big expenditure again."

"Liya, check if there are any discounted sub-level spirit protection scrolls... The air in this damn place makes my head buzz just breathing it!"

The group cursed and swore but moved decisively through the crowd, merging into the ceaseless tide of rust and hope at the warship port.

Warship port deep-water anchorage.

Many people gathered here, almost blocking it completely.

Before the Night Watchers’ fleet arrived, the merchants who came earlier had already spread rumors.

Combined with the oppressive atmosphere of recent times, many were very eager.

So almost everyone who could come, came; they wanted to see if what the Night Watchers brought this time might help them restore the blockade at the front line as speculated.

Looking ahead.

On the sea.

The newly arrived Night Watchers’ fleet exceeded expectations; their massive steel shadows almost covered the sea.

The number of escort ships was so large, like a group of steel giant sharks guarding the core.

They needed to dock for restocking, their huge size forcing the port officials to temporarily clear the outermost berths, even using magic energy shock waves to disperse reefs and silt in the near-shore shallow water area, forcibly creating additional deep-water zones.

"Clear the area! Everyone back to the safety line! Repeat, back to the safety line!"

Instructions from the expanded magic guide device echoed over the noisy port, overpowering the sounds of ships docking and waves crashing.

In the sky, the Knight Order riding mighty Griffins descended like precise Falcons.

The Night Watcher emblem on their armor reflected a cold, hard light in the morning glow, while the Griffins beneath them emitted a deterrent low growl, their sharp eyes scanning the dense crowd below.

Meanwhile, the gangways of two docked escort ships were lowered.

With the sound of running footsteps, two teams of well-equipped Night Watch Soldiers quickly ran down to meet another team already waiting in the dock area.

They held constraint force field generators that flickered with energy, swiftly establishing a solid human wall centered around that giant warship.

An improvised energy barrier served as a protective zone, just like that.

After all, although these people were adventurers, they weren’t pure Night Watchers, just standing on their side but not absolutely trustworthy.

It’s wise to prepare safety measures for critical situations.

"What the hell? Can’t even take a look?"

Some people shouted discontentedly.

Clearly, they could still see perfectly.

"What big treasure have the Night Watchers brought this time? Such a big show?"

"Tsk-tsk, look at the size under that black cloth, even more exaggerated than last time’s ’Iron Flower’!"

"Could it be a super magic energy cannon that can flatten the ’Steel Broken Cliff’ in one shot?"

Various conversations arose.

Adventurers, merchants, and laborers stood outside the force field, craning their necks and tiptoeing, with discussions, exclamations, and speculations mixed together, forming a buzzing background noise.

Though muttering complaints about the Night Watchers’ "dominance," when those Griffin Knights’ icy gazes and the force field generators buzzing in the Night Watch Soldiers’ hands pointed their way, the crowd wisely retreated backwards.

They sensibly cleared the large safety zone demarcated by soldiers.

The impressive show looked very serious, better not to provoke it inexplicably, otherwise that would be too foolish.

Amidst all this attention, the expedition’s highest commander, Dwarf Sage Lurik, appeared at the dock’s forefront.

His cloak still bore dust and smoke traces from the front lines, with deep-set eyes and bloodshot eyes revealing immense pressure.

Yet at this moment, his gaze was tightly locked onto the black giant on the deck of that enormous warship, carrying a subtle, almost imperceptible anticipation.

This was the big weapon mentioned by Bobo in the channel that could resolve difficulties at the front line.

He had been looking forward to this for a long time, now it finally docked.

This way, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Master Lurik!" The gangway of the giant ship was lowered, and an Alchemist dressed in Night Watcher high-tier engineering attire briskly walked down, saluting Lurik.

His face mixed with travel fatigue and the excitement of a project’s success.

Lurik nodded and returned the salute, his voice deep, "Thank you for your hard work, Master Glenn. This is..."

"Yes! The ’Order Pyramid’ prototype!"

Master Glenn’s tone brimmed with pride; he leaned close to Lurik, quickly explaining in a low voice, pointing toward the giant concealed under the black cloth.

"We created it based on the sub-rule application provided by Master Bobo and the stable technology of the ’Iron Flower Structure,’ combined with the latest understanding of the essence of Void pollution.

"It is itself a large solidified node of Order rules!"

At this moment, under Master Glenn’s gesture, a squad of Soul Guardian members, like the most loyal guards, took their positions around the key locations of the black giant.

They emitted powerful energy fluctuations, watchful and protective, ensuring the unloading process went without a hitch.

A strong team of Mages began chanting lengthy and complex spells; magic power surged in the air, and an invisible force field supported the heavy black cloth cover.

A moment for everyone to hold their breath arrived.

Everyone saw it, as if the giant was about to reveal its true appearance.

Suddenly, everyone went quiet, and the originally noisy and crowded scene became very silent.

Under joint manipulation by numerous Mages, the giant object slowly floated up from the deck, with the supporting frames and securing devices automatically loosened.

The immense pressure caused the air to emit a muffled humming sound.

When it reached about ten meters above the ground, the heavy alchemical black cloth covering it, as if lifted by invisible hands from the top, began to slide along the strange and magnificent contour.

The first revealed is the tower’s tip, pure white alloy like snow, glinting with the cold light unique to metal.

Then, layer by layer, the tower body manifested—a structure of six layers, remarkably clear.

Each layer wasn’t completely enclosed but consisted of precise geometric frameworks, with energy-glossed golden, silver, and sky-blue metal patterns embedded within.

Most awe-inspiring were the enormous, variously shaped hollow crystals suspended between and atop the layers.

These crystals weren’t static; instead, they slowly rotated along some mysterious trajectory, as if stars flowed within.

As the entire tower fully exposed to sunlight, an indescribable sense of Order and sacredness surged forth.

Its entirety was primarily white, adorned with gold, silver, and blue metals, both enchanting and magnificent, yet bearing the Night Watchers’ distinctively highly rational design sensibility.

It hovered calmly in mid-air, resembling a holy artifact descended from myths.

Buzz—!

No deafening roar, just a low and grand hum, spreading from the tower directly to the depths of the soul.

At its center, the air rippled like water waves, countless silver-gray light threads appeared out of thin air.

These threads weren’t chaotic but quickly woven together, forming countless simple and perfect geometric shapes—cubes, triangular pyramids, prisms... They rotated and flickered around the Pyramid, emitting a pure, stable radiance that dispels all chaos.

This radiance wasn’t sacred gold or shining silver, but carried a humble, reassuring silver-gray hue.

"My... God..." The crowd erupted with uncontrollable exclamations.

This spectacle was more captivating than any weapon display; it was an exhibition of power at the level of rules.

However, the most astonishing change happened among the crowd.
