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 262 Captain Duncan's Gift

In the voluminous document brought by Morris, only a short section was connected to the mysterious symbol—and that symbol was just an inconspicuous part of that section. The author of the document had not devoted a single stroke to interpret the symbol or the relief patterns surrounding it.

Duncan and Morris could only analyze it through the details presented in the manuscript illustrations, tentatively identifying the shattered cross surrounded by a hexagonal outline as a religious symbol or scholarly emblem from the time of the ancient kingdom.

Duncan slowly closed the heavy tome.

From a rational perspective, Morris believed that the ascetics who visited Homeloss a century ago couldn't possibly be descendants of the Ancient Crete Kingdom—a group of hermits passing down traditions over ten thousand years in the chaotic and dangerous deep-sea era was nearly impossible. From a rigorous scholarly standpoint, he couldn't hastily make this assumption without further evidence.
