Chapter 582: 187. Strong Metal Fusion_4

Noland Lee had seen his image and introduction in textbooks, so he had some understanding.

The Minister of the Department of Magic was named Bart, and Noland Lee’s knowledge of him was limited to knowing his name.

The unified demand of these two wizards was that the crew of the disc-shaped ship must surrender control of the ship and unconditionally cooperate with the Ulnas Circle in studying the ship.

Only after satisfying this demand could the crew save their lives; otherwise, they would be locked in prison cells, interrogated in the Dreamscape, and then burned to ashes by the Fireball technique.

Based on this demand, the Minister of the Department of Magic required all crew members to sign a Magic Contract, to unconditionally serve the Ulnas Circle until their natural death.

Meanwhile, the Dean of Hotams demanded that the crew hand over all information related to the Metal Ancestor Dragon.

Interestingly, when they saw the words “Metal Ancestor Dragon” formed by the magic fog, all the crew members on Loymin’s side showed a confused expression.

Their pupils slightly enlarged, revealing a confused look, apparently not knowing what the “Metal Ancestor Dragon” was.

Thanks to at least 270 points of “Spirit,” all the wizards in the Wizard Delegation had an energy and spell perception range of up to 2,700 meters in radius.

They could accurately capture the energy fluctuations of the entire disc-shaped ship in their minds.

Subtle facial changes such as pupil dilation, unstable breathing frequency, and confused humming could not escape the eyes of the wizards present.

Wizards would not easily believe the crew’s reaction.

The fact that the other party didn’t know what the “Metal Ancestor Dragon” was doesn’t mean that the Metal Ancestor Dragon did not exist.

This dragon and its offspring might have changed their shape and lived in the outer space.

After all, for metal dragons that control metal, changing shapes is as simple as eating and drinking.

Dean Braun did not want to waste too much time either. He raised his hand, pointed at the metal sign above the passage entrance with the cane in his right hand, and asked:

“If you don’t know what the ‘Metal Ancestor Dragon’ is, why don’t you tell me what the ‘Dragon Claw’ on that metal sign is all about?”

Loymin and her team members turned their heads and looked at the metal sign behind them.

When Loymin turned back, her confusion was even more apparent. She spoke some alien language in a slightly hoarse voice.

The magic fog translated the text:

“This emblem is the emblem of the ‘Metal Creation Group.’ You are mistaken. The pattern on the emblem is not a ‘Dragon Claw.’ It is a ‘mechanical claw’ for holding goods and materials.”

“Metal Creation Group…” The wizards discuss.

“Another new extraterrestrial void power…”

“The name of this extraterrestrial void power contains the words ‘Metal Creation.’ It is likely to be related to the Metal Ancestor Dragon. It’s just that these crew members, who know nothing about magic and dragons, don’t know what the Metal Ancestor Dragon is.”

The wizards’ internal discussions will not be translated by the magic fog.

And the wizards mocking the crew for not understanding magic and dragons would, of course, not be known to the crew members led by Loymin.

After a brief commotion on the scene, the Minister of the Department of Magic made the final decision, formally requesting that the crew members lay down their weapons and surrender.

Loymin herself agreed, but several dozen of her crew members opposed her decision and cursed her cowardice in the alien language.

It seemed that the alien crew was not united. The conflicts and disputes that had been accumulating on a daily basis finally erupted when Loymin announced her surrender.

Those emotional crew members shouted something in the alien language as they ran towards the passage entrance.

They had forgotten about the existence of the magic fog.

The magic fog accurately translated their words, suggesting to quickly activate the ship’s self-destruct program, threaten the wizards to leave the ships by self-destruct, and then take the opportunity to overload the ship’s engine, forcibly take off and break out of this world.

The Wizard Delegation did not bother to argue with them.

Mercy, tolerance, and civility were reserved for enemies who were willing to surrender.

Since they were unwilling to surrender, there was no choice but to send them to their deaths.

More than a dozen bright and deadly magical rays chased after their backs. Their personal shields were incredibly strong, but most still were pierced by the high-powered rays.

A few people had extraordinary shield generators that managed to block the rays from the Nine Rings and Ten Rings wizards.

But before they could feel proud or relieved, enchanted crossbow arrows suddenly pierced through their shields, stabbing into their throats. The cold steel and warm blood took their lives away.

The Silent Enforcer’s Silent Crossbow Arrows brought a quiet end to this negotiation trip.

Noland Lee didn’t care much about the crew, as he had already obtained the Metal System Meditation Method that he wanted.

The only thing that made him remain vigilant was the metal sign.

When following the Wizard Delegation to escort the crew away, just before flying out of the cargo hold, Noland Lee threw a Deconstruction spell at the metal sign, refreshing its panel information for the last time.

[System Message:]

[You are about to cast Deconstruction on the “Metal Sign”, and it is estimated that consuming 15 energy points will make the degree of deconstruction reach 100%.]

Only 15 points, huh…

Eh?

Wait!

What’s going on?

Didn’t the system determine that the metal sign was abnormal? Why are the words “abnormal” gone now, and the metal sign has become an ordinary metal creation!?

Noland Lee’s heart suddenly jumped.

He could be sure that the metal sign returning to normal had nothing to do with him obtaining the Meditation Method.

Because after obtaining the Meditation Method, he looked at the sign several times with Deconstruction, and each time it showed that there was something abnormal about it.

Did the will and bloodline inside the metal sign transfer to somewhere else?

Noland Lee thought while following Comini out of the disc-shaped ship.

He scattered Deconstruction everywhere, checking everything he saw.

Finally, he found the trace of the Metal Ancestor Dragon, Tarsali.

At some point, the Metal Ancestor Dragon had transferred its will and bloodline to the magic ship of Berkeley.

Noland Lee had an eerie feeling.

A considerable part of the reason passengers were willing to buy Berkeley’s tickets was that they trusted the influence of Hotams Metal Department.

It was because the Metal Department was reliable that the passengers entrusted their lives and fortunes to Berkeley’s hands, following the magic ship on a long journey.

With Berkeley’s death and the magic ship stranded, Hotams had to find a way to accommodate the passengers. This was also the Department of Magic’s requirement for Hotams.

Thus, without any accidents, Noland Lee and Denise Green would take a magic ship powered by Deep Sea spells to Baldur’s Gate port and then board another magic ship arranged by Hotams to continue their journey to the Suman Archipelago.

From the Blackfold Sea to Baldur’s Gate, it would take at least 20 days.

In these 20 days, Noland Lee and Denise Green would stay on the magic ship.

Thinking about the Metal Ancestor Dragon’s will and bloodline being on the magic ship, Noland Lee felt a weight on his heart and found it difficult to handle.

“I might have to find a way to avoid this magic ship…”

Noland Lee pondered in secret.
