Chapter 856: #856 - The 'City of Steam and Steel' Hidden in the Thick Fog

The members of the Ye family in the cabin all went up to the deck. In the golden sky and sea dyed yellow by the afterglow of the sun, they could see the wide coastline not far away, and the city of lights that reflected a brilliance no less than the sun.

A huge lighthouse stood at the pier of Sea Serpent City.

Approaching dusk, under the guidance of the lighthouse's blazing white light, the entire sea area resounded with calls, and hundreds of boats raced to be the first.

Countless small fishing boats headed towards the Sea Serpent Port.

Through the telescope provided by the crew, they could see people surging on the pier, and a large amount of seafood being transported from the fishing boats to the fish market on the pier.

The crowds waiting to buy fresh fish had been waiting for a long time.

On one side of the market, steam locomotives from the mainland were running on the hard roads.

These novel scenes instantly attracted the attention of the passengers.

"This is Blue Silver Island!

This is the residence where we will settle down in the future."

Ye Lingling gripped the railing of the deck, her eyes filled with endless brilliance.

This island, so large that one could not see the end of it, with its coastline basically indistinguishable from the mainland, coupled with the vibrant and bustling Sea Serpent Pier and Sea Serpent City, stirred Ye Lingling's heart immensely.

Huo Wu floated from the top of the ship to her side and introduced with pride: "Welcome to Blue Silver Island.

In the future, this will become your new home.

However, the city we are going to reach today is not the one in front of us, but Furnace Flame City, located on the west side of Blue Silver Island."

The lighthouse in the distance spotted the approaching Gray Whale One and immediately sent a specific light signal to it.

In response, the soul-guided lighting device set on the top of Gray Whale One, under the soul power output and control of Quan Ming, emitted its own light signal to the lighthouse.

After exchanging their light signals, Gray Whale One began to accelerate towards the northwest.

Only intermittent warning lighthouses silently guarded the coastline.

Looking at the dim and uninhabited dense forest scene, their excited hearts did not cool down in the slightest.

The humid sea breeze blew, and in the silent wait, some people noticed a light that was different from the lighthouse's light appearing on the dark coastline.

"Look, we seem to be almost there."

Under the reminder of the discoverer, everyone squeezed to the left side of the deck and looked into the distance.

As the ship got closer and closer, everyone smelled a pungent odor different from the damp and fishy smell. At the same time, they also heard the faint sound of metal collisions and air hissing coming from the distance.

These sounds were like the beating heart of a giant beast, echoing in a low rumble all around.

This vibration was completely different from the sounds emitted by Sea Serpent Island.

Following the faint lights and sounds, everyone could feel the air they were touching becoming heavy and intense.

Finally, under the illumination of the distant lighthouse, what everyone saw first was the thick smoke and mist that suddenly appeared in the clear night sky.

These smokes enveloped the entire city, making the lights inside more psychedelic and blurred.

In particular, when a large amount of smoke condensed in the air, forming an opaque and heavy cloud layer.

Even with a lot of lights, the entire city was completely hidden in the smoke, like a floating city of fog on the sea, giving people a sense of fantasy and danger.

Looking at this mysterious city, everyone felt the rich power of fire radiating from the front through the water mist.

Stimulated by sight, hearing, touch, and smell at the same time, Ye Lingling stared at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but sigh:

"Is this the territory of the Flame Lord?"

At this time, as if answering her question, Quan Ming's voice came to her ears through the loudspeaker.

"Please note that we are about to enter the Flame Turtle Sea Area.

The Sea Serpent Dragon Lizard Team will hand over with the Golden Jade Furnace Flame Turtle Team. Curious passengers can pay attention to the sea."

Under Quan Ming's reminder, they turned their eyes to the sea, and saw that the front illuminated by the ship's lights suddenly reflected a golden and brilliant light.

When everyone looked towards the gorgeous colors, they saw several golden treasure mountains inlaid with large emeralds rising above the sea.

The treasure mountains floated on the sea, quietly approaching the sea ship.

At this moment, the Sea Serpent Dragon Lizards surrounding the ship let out hissing sounds.

In response, the treasure mountain in front made a peculiar turtle cry, responding to the Dragon Lizard clan.

At this time, everyone could see clearly the turtle's body hidden under the gorgeous treasure light.

"Another ten-thousand-year-level soul beast group!

This is already the third one, right!"

Seeing the scene of different soul beast groups communicating with each other and cooperating closely, Qi Feng was already tired of being shocked.

The number of Golden Jade Furnace Flame Turtles was obviously less than the Sea Serpent Dragon Lizards, but their gorgeous turtle shells were more conspicuous than the black dragon scales, and they looked full of security at first glance.

Under the escort of several sea turtles, the fleet continued to move forward.

The turtle shells of the Golden Jade Furnace Flame Turtles illuminated the surrounding sea area covered in thick fog under the reflection of the lights.

This light contained the power to dispel the thick fog, which also spared the ships the danger of collision.

Under the illumination of the golden jade light, unknowingly, clearer orange-red lights and the sound of mechanical operation appeared in front of the ship.

"Attention passengers, we are about to arrive at Golden Jade Port, please hold on to the handrails, the ship is about to dock."

Quan Ming's reliable voice came from the ear.

At this time, the mist in front of them suddenly cleared a lot, and a pier where many steel ships were parked appeared in front of everyone.

On one side of the pier stood a huge towering building.

Its entire body exuded a dark metallic luster, and above the dome, huge chimneys stood upright, spewing smoke into the sky.

This all-metal building gave people an unspeakable sense of oppression just by standing there.

The ship under their feet was sailing towards this open iron dome. Different from the dark exterior, bright lights came from the huge entrance, enough for the Gray Whale One to pass through, revealing everything inside.

When everyone entered it, they could see some semi-finished iron ship hulls placed in the spacious interior environment.

From this point of view, it can be quickly understood that this is the shipyard that manufactures iron ships.

Inside the shipyard, in addition to the ship hulls, there were also a large number of complex and precise machines, driven by flames and heat, running with a creaking sound.

In the middle of the busy machines, even busier crowds on both sides shot out cables to hold and fix the Gray Whale One.

The seemingly chaotic scene was full of an unusual sense of order due to the exquisite cooperation of the personnel on and off the ship.

When the ship stopped, a amplified human voice came from a high platform inside the shipyard.

"Welcome everyone to the 'City of Steam and Steel'!"
