Witch, Fireball and the Evil God of Steam-Chapter 755 - 119: Beware of Extreme Sports Enthusiasts When Using the Magitek Cannon (Part 2)
It turned out that the wind element could do far more than he had imagined. If this ability were in the hands of a chemistry PhD, they would definitely come up with something extraordinary. It seemed that both he and the wind element had been too conservative in their thinking, just like the Elemental Shapers of this world who were limited to the "Wind Blade Technique," which in essence was just a larger version of a wind blade that could cut through space.
After nearly losing half their lives, the young researchers still displayed great dedication, seeing future hope in the literary girl.
"If she can control the changes in the air and her ability isn't limited by this planet, then she could create an environment for humans to survive in space!"
The group engaged in a heated discussion over this idea, deeply inspired by mysticism. Some research topics that might take them decades to complete in this world, highly developed in mysticism, might be solved with ease.
No one knew how long had passed before their conversation was interrupted by a loud bang from the deck, followed by a violent shaking.
"I'll go take a look."
Ethan suddenly had a foreboding feeling.
When he stepped out of the cabin, the deck was already shrouded in smoke. From within the dark fog came the cheer of the culprit, instantly drawing his attention to the black cat.
This time she had found two like-minded partners in crime.
"Rowena, and Other Shore, how did you end up messing around with them too!"
However, the actual situation was worse than Ethan had imagined. When he plunged into the dark fog, the number of suspects rose to five, and Yue and the Little Octopus perched on his head were also looking excited.
Only Miss Lily, the maid following him, expressed an apology to Ethan with her eyes.
This young master always turns into a child when he meets these old friends, losing all the cunning he has in the council.
"Old Sen, you came at the right time!"
Without waiting for Ethan to ask, Yue dragged him to the edge, pointing at a dent cratered by a blast, and yelled, "How about it? It's almost as powerful as an NB strike, right?"
That flattened area was still billowing black smoke and rolling with waves of fire.
This plunged Ethan's eyes into darkness.
According to Imperial law, just one shot like this would be enough to put these criminals in jail for hundreds of years; each of them was a super-criminal worthy of being locked in the deepest level of Impel Down!
"Don't worry, that's a no-man's land."
The relatively reliable Other Shore tried to rationalize their behavior just now.
Ethan rubbed his forehead. It was turning into a bad day; he worried himself sick over these people. Ever since he boarded this Golden Ship, incidents kept happening.
"How can you be so sure? What if there are extreme sports fans or backpackers who like riding through no-man's land?"
Ethan lamented.
"No problem at all, you don't have to worry about them." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Other Shore patted his shoulder, exuding a big sister aura.
"What, does this ship's magical artillery come with IFF technology?"
"Of course not."
The slightly knowledgeable Rowena folded her arms, speaking as if it was all expected, "Otherwise, why do you think the Golden Fleet has been shelved for so many years and regarded as the 'ultimate weapon' by the Imperial People?"
At least in Rowena's view, it was largely because the magical artillery did not differentiate between friend and foe. It would only be used in situations where the goal was to destroy a city; otherwise, a nondiscriminatory magical shot like just now would wipe out the Imperial Knight Order.
"Then how can you be sure no one will get hurt because of this?"
"Because that area is frequented by high-level magical creatures, and the Adventurer's Guild has repeatedly detected signs of Tier 4 magical creatures."
Other Shore replied confidently, "If extreme sports fans really did venture into that area, they would have already been a banquet for the magical creatures. We are avenging them!"
The animal protection association was outraged!
Well, Ethan suddenly realized that such an organization didn't exist in this world, and the Empire had never introduced any magical creature protection laws.
Moreover, the Adventurer's Guild and various merchants' guilds in different countries paid adventurers substantial funds every year to clear out magical creatures to keep trade routes running smoothly.
Here, it was rare to find someone like him, who kept a bunch of little animals at home.
In fact, when Ethan first arrived in the Imperial Capital, Ave mentioned that there was a wave of magical creature-rearing among the nobles. Magical creatures like cats were especially sought after, commanding sky-high prices at one point. But the booming business didn't last long as people quickly realized that the magical creatures they bought were nothing like the white ragdoll cat by Ethan's side.
The obedient cats that would perch on your shoulder, snuggling your face or licking your earlobe did not exist. What they bought were thugs who could destroy half the living room when they went out the door and send five servants to the hospital every three days.
"After launching that magical artillery, you could at least claim dozens of Ten Golden Lions from the Adventurer's Guild in the Imperial Capital."
Being the current Knight Commander of the Empire, Other Shore was equivalent to the highest leader in law enforcement, and indeed, no one had more authority than her to explain.
Overall, "magical creatures" were targets of human subjugation in the Empire or any country on this continent.
"Cheer up, Old Sen! It's a rare chance to board the Golden Ship. If you don't use the magical artillery, wouldn't that make it no different from an ordinary airship?"
