Chapter 2287 - 1143: Void Pursuit (Part 2)

Chapter 2287: Chapter 1143: Void Pursuit (Part 2)

The ship’s armor and magical power shield can act like a world barrier, isolating the void outside the warship, and every cabin inside is engraved with time-space magic, which can stabilize the cabin space, establish the concept of time, and thus construct a concept sufficient for biological survival.

Just like the survival environment in Dorothy’s previous life’s backward space station was artificially constructed, the environment inside the witch battleship operates on a similar principle, only on a grander scale.

"Fleet Connection System Avalon activated, all warships take notice, be sure to maintain connection, do not fall behind."

Dorothy steadily issues commands.

The fleet connection system can ensure the entire fleet becomes a cohesive unit in a mystic sense, avoiding separation during flight, and all warships together can construct stronger protection, sharing some performance with each other, thus reducing pressure on ships with weaker performance, like the numerous logistics transport ships.

And soon after Dorothy’s instruction, responses from other ships arrive.

"Revelation Fleet has completed connection."

"Eternal Night Fleet has completed connection."

"Golden Village Logistics Fleet has completed connection."

"Pure Beauty Cruise Fleet has completed connection."

.....

The response of sisters echoes in the homebody witch’s ears; the sisters have already dispersed into their respective teams, helping to coordinate the fleet’s operation.

And as soon as all warships in the entire fleet complete their connections, a peculiar sense of safety arises in the hearts of all witches.

Yes, these small ships sailing in the vast sea have already bound together, countless small ships forming a large ship, although still insignificant compared to the vast sea, it does provide a somewhat illusory sense of security.

After resolving survival issues comes the issue of movement.

After all, the void is distinct from the spirit world, the material reality world, so naturally, one cannot just reach a destination with mere thought as in the spirit world’s transition principle.

That’s the principle of spirit world transition, but after leaving the witch world without the protection of The Third King, trying to execute spirit world transition in the void would truly be seeking death.

Thus, in the material world, if you want to go somewhere, you can only rely on your own strength to slowly move there.

But then comes the question, how do you move in the void where time and space don’t exist?

After all, the word "move" literally means you’ve spent a certain amount of time to get from here to there, which relies on space-time laws to exist as a secondary derivative concept.

And the answer is simple, since there’s no path, then just create one.

A train can’t run without tracks, so I’ll lay tracks while moving.

There’s no concept of time and space in the void, so I’ll temporarily establish related concepts while moving.

And the void engine system on the warship is for this purpose.

Dorothy took out the Nine-Star Golden Contract from the Mechanical Wilderness, then with a wave of her hand, she threw it into the virtual navigation chart projected by Zero’s nearby mechanical dog.

"Map information is loading...."

"Whale Hunting Contract is being authenticated..."

"Target world targeting has begun...."

"Target locked, void engine system activated...."

"Starting point and destination confirmed, simulation space-time rules construction begins...."

"Route planning has been completed, hunting expedition begins, Family Head, considering the fleet’s average ship performance, it is recommended to set the speed to level 5, estimated travel time is 3 months."

...

Miss Otaku faithfully broadcasts each piece of information to Dorothy with her captivating voice.

And the homebody witch nodded after hearing.

"Then let’s go according to the recommendation, confirm departure."

Thus, with a command from her, the fleet’s master, all the warships’ tails simultaneously sprayed out bright magic tail flames, and the chaos of the void around the fleet was instantly distorted, creating a certain change.

Though at first glance it’s still all black and unknown, a closer observation will reveal that the original void in the path of the fleet, once illuminated by the surrounding lights, will have invisible rules rapidly form, temporarily condensing the surrounding void into an environment akin to a starry cosmos.

However, these rules quickly vanish, and once the entire fleet swiftly passes, the starry cosmos there collapses again, returning to void.

And Dorothy at the helm busily adjusts and directs for a while, until confirming all is orderly, she finally breathes a sigh of relief and has Zero activate the autopilot mode.

Yes, at this moment, she feels the name "Whaling Institution" is quite apt, describing the witches’ world hunting as whaling is indeed fitting, as they are now engaged in a chase with the Intelligent Mechanic Desolation.

The coordinate of the Intelligent Mechanic Desolation is never stationary; in fact, the world is constantly moving, like a whale cruising the sea, and now their fleet is also sailing the sea, chasing the signal of the prey already tagged with a locator.

"Three months, it’s pretty much as expected."

Dorothy considers the calculated travel time from Zero and breathes another sigh of relief.

Three months can be considered neither long nor short; it’s just right, and far more fortunate than the years’ long journey the homebody witch had initially dreaded.

"Is this how you lock onto other worlds?"

Just then, such a question comes to the ears of the homebody witch.

The voice is slightly hoarse, seeming like the speaker’s throat isn’t comfortable.

Upon hearing this, Dorothy turns around and sees a grotesque abstract insect face.

"Oh my..."

The homebody witch was startled, nearly jumping off the high throne, but she stabilized herself with the Bodhisattva State of Mind.

"Oh, it’s you, Miss Xilin, your stealth skills are quite impressive."

Dorothy, patting her own ample chest, teases with some humor.

Although in reality, it wasn’t due to the Insect Girl’s stealth skills being particularly good, but merely that Dorothy’s inspiration was too lazy to actively alarm herself, and the homebody witch wasn’t so much frightened as startled by ugliness.

After all, she’s accustomed to seeing the charming witches in the witch world daily, so encountering such an insect face unexpectedly is rather unsettling.

"Sorry, I scared you, forget it, I should change into an ape... human form then."

Seeing the homebody witch’s reaction, Xilin is silent for a moment; she instantly modifies her genes, and under the encasing mycelial mucus, transforms into an exotic dreamlike beauty retaining only a hint of insect traits.

Yes, this time she’s transformed completely, rather than just changing her head.

Insect people evidently don’t need clothing; they have natural carapaces, so....

"Thank you, but you should really put on some clothes first."

Unexpectedly, the homebody witch saw an exquisite view, she rapidly blinked a few times, clearing her mind of terms like size, white, round, long, amusing for years, etc., and then pulls out a large magic robe from her pocket to toss over?

"Uh, is there anything to be thankful for? Even with you seeing my ugly body, it’s merely a taint to your beautiful eyes, I’ll properly cover it."

The Insect Girl quickly dons the robe over her, as her butterfly wing-like ear wings flutter a few times, apologetically humbling herself.

Yes, she’s an insect person and can’t distinguish between human beauty and ugliness; so far, she can only perceive pure beauty from Lady Dorothy.

As for her own human form?

Xilin, as an insect person, was one considered so ugly not to find a mate, naturally doesn’t perceive her human form as beautiful either. After all, it’s a natural expression of her genes, theoretically speaking, the insect form and human form should be equally leveled in attractiveness, presumably just as unattractively unviewable to Lady Dorothy.

Thinking of this, Xilin becomes even more self-conscious, vigorously tugging the robe to cover her unattractive form more thoroughly.

But.....

"No, Miss Xilin, although I find appreciation difficult due to aesthetic differences in your insect form, your human form undoubtedly super aligns with my aesthetics, I’m quite certain about this."

Concerning matters of aesthetics and personal preferences, Dorothy’s response is seriously earnest.

Her gaze is genuinely sincere, after all, who could refuse a lovely girl with butterfly wings for ears?

...Homebody witch in seriousness....
