System vs Rebirth Chapter 1246: Set Sail

Chapter 1246: Set Sail

"Welcome to the Zaecuria Kingdom once again. We are pleased to have you with us now." The king smiled.

Noel nodded. Because he was accompanied by Anna, the other party was also taking out their Spirit Transcendence, as if showing them that they were not going to lose. And they would sure remember these faces, knowing full well that Noel and Anna would dominate the future.

"We are thankful for your warm welcome." Noel smiled back. "I guess you're putting pressure on me since we can't afford to fail on the expedition."

Noel subtly hinted about these three spirit transcendences before them. Of course, he used the expedition as an excuse.

All three spirit transcendences couldn't help but furrow their eyebrows.

They all knew that Noel would probably be the only one having the authority to say such a thing. After all, his strength wasn't the only one they should be concerned about.

Even if all five spirit transcendences fought in this place, the three people from the Zaecuria Kingdom wouldn't be so sure they could kill both of them together. Even if they managed to do it, two of them would definitely die, and the last spirit transcendence would be severely injured to the point where they would have to retire.

That was why no one really rebuked Noel's words. The king was aware of this and said, "Hahaha. Of course. The money we have spent for this expedition is the greatest compared to any expedition so far. I hope that you are able to lead this fleet well, Marquis Ardagan."

"I will do my best. After all, our goal is the same." Noel nodded.

"Alright." The king took a step back and shouted, "Marquis Noel Ardagan! Step forward!"

Noel did as he instructed. This was a formality that had to be done.

The king waved his hand. "From this point onward, I honor you with the t.i.tle Prince of the Sea. All 600 sailors, including the admiral, are now under your command."

"I shall humbly accept." Noel politely nodded. Since he was a spirit transcendence from another country, there was no need to kneel when receiving his decree.

And with this transfer of authority, all sailors standing behind him, including the admiral, gave him a military salute.

"May G.o.d of the Sea grant you a safe pa.s.sage." The king nodded.

"Thank you."

With the transfer authority completed, the sailors began to board the s.h.i.+p. There were a lot of people, mostly friends and families of these sailors.

Due to the scale and Noel's partic.i.p.ation, they had no choice but to make it official. If they failed, Noel would be held responsible. If they succeeded, all these sailors would become heroes.

The sailing date had been determined, and it had been announced throughout the kingdom. The port was bustling with people.

There were a lot of n.o.bles either trying to catch a glimpse of the hero of the younger generation, Noel Ardagan, or see what kind of s.h.i.+p that would make Noel Ardagan and Anna Stargaze partic.i.p.ate.

And they were completely surprised by both. The s.h.i.+p was ma.s.sive, capable of carrying at least two thousand people and supplies for more than a month.

They also carried a lot of things, including goods to trade if they somehow found other civilizations.

The s.h.i.+p had a huge banner of the Zaecuria Kingdom, making sure people knew that it was the Zaecuria Kingdom that had such a technological marvel.

Of course, because of the cooperation, they also placed the Ardagan family's flag next to the kingdom's flag.

After all, Noel was the fleet commander in this expedition.

The festive atmosphere filled the entire port city. Trumpet was ringing across the town, cheering for the people on this journey. Some were holding a ritual, wis.h.i.+ng for a peaceful sea.

The king was observing from afar, not wanting to take everyone's glory this time. After all, it would be these warriors who had to fight their lives for the glory of the Zaecuria Kingdom.

In the boat, Incetta was accompanying Noel and the admiral in the navigation room since Vivi wanted to make sure everything was right.

Anna was on the top deck, watching everything from the highest point.

Meanwhile, Noel and the admiral were watching the sailors prepare the sail.

"How many troops do we have?" Noel asked.

"Including me, there are a total of 5 grandmasters. Of course, we also bring 15 spirit masters and 50 spirit wielders. The rest are either spirit apprentices or spirit pract.i.tioners. Everyone, whether they are chefs, doctors, or normal sailors, has spiritual energy in their bodies."

"Of course. This will be the expedition with the highest chance of success, considering there will be two spirit transcendences protecting this s.h.i.+p."

"Is there any n.o.ble on board?"

"Yes. However, we have specifically mentioned that they won't be treated special. And it is fine to execute them if there is insubordination."

"So cruel."

"It is to ensure the order within the s.h.i.+p."

"I know. I'm just joking. Well, it's time for us to set sail."

"Where are we going, sir?"

Noel pointed to the east. "We'll be going to the east. But this time, adjust our path ten degrees to the south."

"Understood." The admiral nodded. He then gave the order to the sailors. "Let's set sail!"

"Uoohh!" The sailors began activating the runes, allowing them to propel the boat forward.

As expected, several people were on the deck, which caused a lot of confusion.

"Goodbye!"

"Please make sure you come back!"

The people were cheering and waving their hands. Some cried, some were proud. They were bidding their goodbyes to their loved ones, knowing full well that there was a chance for them to never return.

Noel and the admiral were staring at the sailors who were trying to look at their loved ones for one last time.

"We have to make this a success." The admiral smiled.

"Indeed." Noel smiled. As the s.h.i.+p got farther and farther away, the people started going back to their posts, determined to make it back home.

Without them realizing it, there was actually a group of mermaids following the boat underneath the water. And the one leading them was none other than the diva.
