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 67: New contacts

The Goat Head was a dangerous fellow, something Duncan had known from the beginning—not only because it was an anomalous object of unclear origins but also because it had once been loyal to the real Captain Duncan and even now continued to act and think according to the old rules.

In the perspective of the Goat Head, city-states on land were meaningless, the mortals within the city-states were laughably ignorant, the weak city-state fleets were mere fodder, and to plunder and kill them... was a "routine" activity Homeloss was entitled to.

Duncan did not know how long it would take to adjust the Goat Head's thinking habits, but he knew the process had to be imperceptible—changing the behavior of both himself and Homeloss in a way that felt justifiable was the surest method.

He took one last look at the Goat Head, quietly standing by on the navigation desk, confirming that the other party had taken over the sail and helm system of Homeloss, before he walked into his bedroom.
