Upon Raine's return to the ship, everyone hurriedly draped him in blankets.
"Did you find it?"
Raine did not answer directly, "Fancy, come with me, the rest of you stay behind."
With that said, under the puzzled gazes of everyone, Raine walked alone toward the captain's cabin. Fancy, not understanding the situation, could only follow with confusion.
After Fancy entered, Raine closed the door.
"Leader, what... why are you acting so mysteriously? Did you find the Water Heaven Crystal or not?" Fancy asked, puzzled.
Raine asked, "Fancy, I remember you used a skill before, can you still use it now?"
"Well... I don't have great control over it, so I can only use it in extremely dangerous situations."
Raine nodded, this might be the self-protection mechanism of the Water Heaven Crystal. Unless it's an absolute necessity, it cannot use its skill, to avoid being recognized.
"This skill, is it inherited? Tell me about it."
In theory, this was Fancy's secret, but she trusted Raine immensely and did not hide it.
"Well, let me introduce you to the Phoenix's Sound. This is a very peculiar skill. Other hybrids inherit physical genes, but... what we inherit in our family seems to be only skills!"
"Only our branch of the Sea King Clan can use the Phoenix's Sound. Only a certain female among the direct descendants has a chance to inherit it. When the previous user of Phoenix's Sound dies, the power of the next usage will be stronger."
"Each activation of Phoenix's Sound requires a great deal of energy, so to improve the success rate and power of using it, we can't practice the skill repetitively like others. We can only improve it through meditation, which is essentially communicating with our own bodies."
"The reason I was able to use Phoenix's Sound before is due to the high unity of body and mind. But ever since my mother passed away, no one has been guiding me, and it's very hard for me to find that feeling now."
Raine's brows furrowed tighter, what Fancy was describing completely coincided with the possibility Heng had mentioned.
Phoenix's Sound, a name given by Fancy and her family, was actually likely a certain ability of the Water Heaven Crystal.
After several generations of integration, the Water Heaven Crystal had merged into Fancy's lineage. They didn't need to enhance their skill levels. The purpose of meditation was merely to stimulate the original, stronger power of the Water Heaven Crystal.
This skill of meditation should only be understood by Fancy's lineage. Even Tik couldn't guide Fancy, and since she experienced the Sea King Clan mutation at seven or eight years old, no one had been teaching her how to meditate since hence she had been unable to enhance her own strength.
"Hey, why are you asking me these questions? They have nothing to do with finding the Water Heaven Crystal." Fancy looked at Raine shyly, "You're not trying to find an excuse to be alone with me, are you?"
If it were usual, Raine would probably engage in a verbal spar with Fancy. But now, Raine was feeling very heavy. He looked at Fancy and blurted out, "I won't let anyone harm you!"
His inexplicable statement made Fancy's delicate face blush slightly as she fiddled with her fingers, her head lowered, "Why...why are you suddenly so...so proactive... what do you really want to tell me?"
Raine sighed softly, "I... I have nine years left until the final Apocalypse. If I die..."
Fancy's twinkling eyes were instantly blurred by tears as she rushed in front of Raine and embraced him tightly, "Don't say anymore... Whatever the outcome, I'll be with you!"
Raine's heart trembled.
Raine always claimed there were no beauties on his ship, with people saying that it was because of his poor taste.
However, he knew how beautiful the woman in his arms truly was. Her beauty was transcendent, untouched by the dust of the world. She had always been like a two-dimensional girl who had stepped out of a painting, the most dazzling no matter where she stood.
Unfortunately, Raine had never committed his feelings to any woman. The reason was simple, he was not the real him. But at this moment, he just wanted to hold Fancy tightly in his arms, as if he was afraid she would be taken away.
............
That very day, Raine ordered the battleship to return and publicly announced that he had given up the search for the Water Heaven Crystal.
Everyone was not too surprised by Raine's decision. After all, finding the Water Heaven Crystal without any clues was too difficult.
In order to prevent people from bringing up the topic again, Raine shifted everyone's attention to collecting resources. He personally communicated with Linda, the representative of Twilight City, to arrange the receipt of resources from Twilight City and the assignment of their technicians.
The reason Raine personally liaised with Twilight City was to prevent them from intervening in the matter of the Water Heaven Crystal.
From the time Raine returned, the world entered a period of frantic resource collection.
Thanks to everyone's efforts, Saipan Island and the surrounding islands accumulated a massive amount of materials. Raine found an open sea area and summoned a huge natural furnace to smelt metal ingots.
Half a year later, after checking the system, Raine found that he could finally build the next level of battleships.
Time was pressing. Raine quickly had the materials brought to Saipan Island and began constructing the next level of battleships.
In order to instill more confidence in everyone about the Apocalypse, Raine specifically gathered a large group of leaders including the captains of the ten fleets, Heng from Twilight City underground, Linda, Salada of the Naga Tribe, the Scaly Dragon couple of the Sea Dragon Tribe, and Woodborn of the World Tree Elves to witness the construction.
The harbor gathered the current world's powerhouses, and everyone's mood was equally tense.
"Can all these materials construct themselves?"
"I've seen Raine build and optimize the Yamato, but the difficulty of building a super battleship is obviously much greater..."
"Whether we can oppose the Star Fleet depends on how many super battleships we can build."
"Didn't Avril say that Raine might build more advanced battleships?"
"More advanced battleships? I doubt it. They don't even have blueprints, how can they build them? Let's not be too greedy. If we can build super battleships, we should be thankful."
As everyone was discussing, Raine began the construction.
"System, don't be as slow as before. As long as the materials are enough, you just have to build the new battleship at the fastest speed!"
Raine was just saying it casually, but the speed of battleship construction really did increase by several notches!
A vast amount of materials, each simultaneously completing the cutting and assembly, and a large number of extremely intricate processes were quickly completed in a very short time.
"Eh, why does the shape of this battleship look a bit different from the Super Battleship?"
"It might be because it's not finished yet... but it does look different, the more you look at it, the less it looks like a Super Battleship, the overall shape is very different."
"Is the ship Raine's building not a Super Battleship?"
Everyone anxiously waited for the new battleship to take its final shape.
Upon Raine's return to the ship, everyone hurriedly draped him in blankets.
"Did you find it?"
Raine did not answer directly, "Fancy, come with me, the rest of you stay behind."
