Ashes Of Deep Sea

Duncan Abnomar was transmigrated to a magical world. Most of the lands of the world had sunken, and the surviving humans could only live on islands. Due to an unknown reason, the world was also contaminated and strange phenomena and things would randomly appear. Humans had developed steam gear technology, and the islands were connected through boats. They survived by studying strange phenomena that happened all around the world. However, as the captain of a scary-looking ghost ship, Duncan was facing a huge challenge. "How the heck do I steer this ship?" Highly recommended by experienced editor: MC is transmigrated to a world mostly covered in water and far from civilization. He becomes the captain of the ghost ship, the 'Homeloss'. He steers through the fog and adventures through the broken world and the unknown deep sea. As he discovers the ruins of abandoned civilization, he would also stumble into the war between the strange phenomena and the devil gods. The story takes place in a combination of ocean and Chutly mythology world, a new and interesting background. It’s an attractive story to read due to the author’s sense of humor and mastery over the ambiance of the story. --------------- Another-style introduction: "On that day, a thick fog engulfed everything. On that day, he became the captain of a ghost ship. On that day, he crossed the dense fog and faced a completely overturned and shattered world – the former order was completely gone, and peculiar phenomena dominated the endless seas beyond civilized society. The island city-states and the fleets challenging the sea have become the only lights of civilization left, while the shadows of old days still lurk in the deep sea, waiting to devour this dying world again. But for the new captain, there's only one pressing question – Does anyone know how to sail this damn ship?!"

Chapter 115: The Source of the Invisible Veil

The spiritual body's ghostly green fire flickered like a floating shadow, sweeping across the entire factory in a matter of seconds. This disturbance, stemming from a higher transcendent power, was like a gust of wind that lifted the veil covering "reality," revealing the truth beneath to Sherry and Duncan's eyes.

Ashes were everywhere—human-shaped ashes, misshapen ashes, scorched walls, melted rooftops. The machines' casings, warped and brittle from the fire's licking flames, melded with barely discernible heaps of molten matter. The whole factory area seemed like a fiery inferno that had only recently cooled down. The fire had been extinguished, but the devastating power that melted everything seemed to still linger in the air.

Sherry stood in the center of this field of fire remnants, her gaze somewhat vacant, while the dog moved silently beside the girl, gently supporting her body with its gaunt skeletal back.
