Chapter 319 Hidden Shadows

Belazov had completed his inspection of Dagger Island and his supervision of the research work, and now, it was time for the military representative to leave.

Near the pier in the bay area of Dagger Island, Professor Melson, who had personally come to see him off, looked up at the "Sea Swallow" that was making preparations to depart.

Sailors were boarding the ship, port officials were checking the paperwork, and clergy in long robes, carrying censers, were walking near the ropes, gently shaking the censers and praying for the mechanical parts of the ship.

The weather was clear today, making it a good day to set sail.

Belazov stood on the dock, watching groups of sailors return to the Sea Swallow, and turned to Professor Melson, saying, "Professor, I'm impressed by your research work, but I feel obliged to remind you—the project on Dagger Island is progressing slowly, and some people in the City-State are getting restless."
