Master of none - Chapter 2254: Showcase

“Now, everyone present today knows exactly what we have been working on. We have invited those who have invested their time and gold in to this project.

We have invited those that will need these services once they are completed. And most of all, we have invited those who have the minds capable of being able to grow to discover new forms of this project even more in their future.

”

The speech was given by the king of the surface. He had visited to see the king of the deep for certain reasons.

However, he had extended his visit the moment he had heard about this project within its entirety. In his words, “this is worth standing for.

”

Having that as the case, no one questioned it. Having a dwarven king take the lead as host for this event was ideal.

It allowed for there to be even more evidence of why it should be improved and focused on as a project within Genesis.

Beyond that, his presence also allowed for some other additions.

Specifically for a few of the master dwarven blacksmiths he had brought along to learn things to see this project. Their ideas had already made a difference within the blueprints and overall structural planning.

But most of all, they had learned new things too. Meaning that they would bring these back to their homes when they left.

Well, if they left.

“The flying ship is a project that will avoid the dangers of the ocean waters.

We have yet to be able to handle those dangers properly, even after the flow of the world returned. As such, we are limited in the teleportation rune formations we already have.

What if they failed?”

This was a major driving force behind why Genesis wanted to push the flying ship forward. Another form of safer transportation.

The fact that it could move above the clouds and have wind magic protection against the wind currents meant that it could safely bring people here and there. Even between continents.

Its speed might just be slower than expected.

This was putting aside all the benefits of large goods being transported, larger races being transported with ease, and having the ability to scout out large parts of land for a much more detailed map.

That was still an ongoing process. The remapping of the wilderness was moving along well.

However, it was not perfect and could be improved. The changes in the world as it had expanded due to fitting the flow of things better was the driving force here.

Too much unknown could be risky. Especially while trying to handle the changes in mana and relationship to the elemental planes.

Everyone Present was staring at the open space laid with pure white stone. It had been made specifically for demonstrating this single project and potentially more.

The clean slate effect was so that there would be an easier view for those that were not accustomed to looking at these sorts of prototype projects.

As a large cloth was pulled back to present the metal floating ship, everyone was amazed.

Four large rotating blades were slowly moving within a circular shell. The center where they all connected was similar to a single boat, but it had been flattened out so that there was more room and also so that more runes could be carved.

Because they had this as an experimental demonstration model, it was made to showcase the way that the wind rune formations connected to a set of large mana gems and even what could be golem cores. Various wind affinity spirit race members also floated around since they were also part of controlling the intricate flow of manas within this floating boat.

There was a perfectly crafted space for a single driver to sit. They could rotate their seat to look over the edges and even had a light rune formation to view the direct bottom beneath them.

This meant that they could view every single spot around them within the air.

Even more intricate, were the metal supports demonstrating the strength of the forging.

It was made so that even beyond the basic strength of the metal, there was additional strength because of how it was built. This was not just days of work.

This was many masters coming together with new goals using years upon years of experience to make it happen.

Beyond that, Walker could sense the flow of manas going in to it.

The wind mana was being pulled in with clear control. Nothing was rough, everything was smooth.

But surprisingly, there were even small fire rune formations on each end. Walker had heard about the idea, but he was amazed to see that it had been refined enough to be used.

“If I were to hold everything back, then I would be insulting you. But I have one more thing to say before our team leaders begin to explain the parts working together and the many details that came together to make this work.

”

“This man!” a tall man walked out, he looked somewhat thin, but from his looks, he was a half demon half dwarf, another rare mix between races which was rarely accepted anywhere.

“He is the first floating ship captain to be discovered.

He left his isolated farm where he was raised and came to Genesis to learn of his blood. Instead, he found a brand new class while watching the first model of the flight rune formations we made.

”

As the floating ship captain took his place, the wind spirit race left the area since they had been helping to bring mana in to the mana gems. But four of them melded together with the golem coats built in to manage the flows of manas.

The captain nodded as if speaking with them which was very surprising since it would be very hard to do so without an applicable skill. They were not physically there right now, they had melded with the ship itself.

Ragradless, a burst of flames caused everyone to shout or leap back. The fire rune formations had shot the small floating boat off the ground.

“You see here, that is the fire rune propulsion formations. Made for sudden bursts in the air during emergencies.

Or maybe just showing off to you.”

Another voice from a rune carver echoed around as the wind began to flow and the floating boat came to life.

Everyone felt the change in the wind which allowed for it to float. It wasn’t moving down with gravity or up.

It was perfectly hovering using wind mana.

“And now we have the wind rune formations which reduce the effects of falling even allowing it to float.

But it can’t move like that, can it? What happens without the natural wind currents?” a small sail shot up proving that without much wind mana, the boat would still be able to move somehow.

“If it falls in the water, it will still float due to the materials used, and can keep many alive with this attachment.

But what if it is without wind mana entirely?”

That was when the rune formations darkened. The wind affinity spirit race members had stopped the flow of wind mana entirely.

This caused the floating ship to fall.

That was, until it stopped again.

The mechanical aspect of dwarven golems was spectacular. It used mana to focus the metals and parts made to move.

It was hard to comprehend with how detailed it was. And right now, everyone was seeing this again.

The blades rotated forcing air to move through them. The four kept the floating boat balanced showcasing the best forging and craftsmanship that went in to making it.

“Who says you need to rely on wind mana to fly? You can make it happen with fire and water mana too. Even creating a steam that allows for you to hide better in the clouds.

”

As the person speaking finished, the rune formations flared back up and the boat began to move. It was not fast, but it was able to hover, change heights, swing to potentially dodge attacks, and so much more.

The entire showcase was making many people wonder what else

Could be done.

“The potential that this project possesses for large goods to be transported is exceptionally high.

But I ask you this, what about transporting the injured? This ship can be a moving cathedral when completed. Housing healers and carrying those injured from natural

Disasters.

”

“What about an injured dragon or wyvern? They could be transported on the large scale floating ship to be able to get to proper treatment. You should be the judge, can this project provide something we are missing right now?”

Walker didn’t even doubt that everyone here had been convinced.

He knew very well that even their special guest was sitting in amazement at this creation. Something that didn’t exist within the elemental planes at all.
