Chapter 21 Shakespeare and Her Crew
The singular combination of dim tungsten filament lamps, faded paint, rusty screws, rubber cables and gears, and the internal combustion engine that exudes white mist.
The interior of the Caledonia is like a steampunk style full of fantasy colors.
"Mechanical design at the end of the 19th century... Is the Nautilus 20,000 miles under the sea..."
Whether it is Ye You, Bianca and Rita, it is hard to believe that such a structure can drive such a huge steel creature to drive under the sea.
“——The 20th century…No, maybe everyone in the 21st century, welcome to the 'Calidonia'.”
In the middle of the bridge is a red-haired woman with a wide hat. She introduced herself in a tone like a stage play, taking off her top hat and putting it on her chest.
"I am Marian William Shakespeare, the captain of the 'Calidonia', from England in the 16th century. On behalf of all the crew, I sincerely welcome you."
“??”
Shakespeare?
No wonder Ye You looked familiar, and the portrait of the "Shakespeare suit" of the three "Shakespeare suit" is this image.
When I saw the real person, I seemed to be more beautiful and heroic.
"Well? This guy, what's going on with you looking like you've seen a 'whale running on the track'? Do you know me?"
Rita also looked at Ye You thoughtfully and thought about it. When he first saw him, he seemed to have a similar expression.
Ye You smiled, "I just didn't expect that the captain of the pirate ship was such a beautiful person."
Shakespeare was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Hahaha! It's so interesting. I didn't expect to be praised so directly. I accepted your praise without hesitation. But our "Kings's Theatre" is just playing pirates."
Playing as a pirate... Do you also want to become One Piece?
Then Shakespeare began introducing her main members.
The sailor Lara, the purple-haired woman who just welcomed Ye You;
Mechanic James Jimmy Watt, the one who invented the steam engine, came from Scotland in the 18th century. The repair and maintenance of this submarine depended on him, and he was a young man who seemed to be young.
The last one attracted the attention of Ye You and the other two, and the first mate was "Iron-faced Man".
Not only was the name not revealed, but his entire body was even wrapped in a white robe, and his face was blocked by a black steel mask, looking mysterious and weird.
Captain Shakespeare said: "We respect her desire to hide her identity and please do not ask her about unnecessary privacy."
Hello, this is too suspicious—Bianca has such an expression written on her face.
Bianca took a step forward and raised his chest, "Since you have introduced your background, so we must also talk about our own affairs. I am Bianca Ajitana, she is the adjutant Rita Losvesser, and we received a commission from Destiny to come to this world and this world to explore Valkyrie. He is Ye You, well..."
Bianca looked at Ye You, and he didn't seem to know his identity.
"A troubled person who was unfortunately involved in this world." Ye You introduced himself.
"Well, that's it."
“…”
“…”
After a while of silence, Shakespeare burst into laughter with her unique but not annoying operatic voice.
"Valkyrie...Destiny...Hahahaha! My dear first mate, you are indeed right."
Ye You watched the changes while Rita showed a puzzled look.
"Chief of the drama, you have lost your composure." The "Iron-faced Man" wrapped in a white robe said in a slow tone.
Bianca frowned, "Hey, what mystery are you doing?"
With red hair as fire, Shakespeare showed a brighter smile, "So that. At first I didn't know what "destiny" and "Valkyrie" were.
But the eldest lieutenant around me told me that in another world there is an energy called "Cangfa" raging, and the people there have suffered extremely deep suffering.
The first to stand up was an organization called "Directionality". The warrior selected from girls who could fight against the collapse was the "Valkyrie".
Two girls who call themselves "Valkyrie", what is said above is the real history of your world."
“…”
Not only Rita and Bianca, but even Ye You surrendered to the taciturn iron-faced man.
Who is this guy?
"Although it's a bit strange to you, it's basically right. There's something wrong with that." Bianca returned.
"Then, the next few advices are more meaningful to you - here, the Cangfa can not be replied, but it is hundreds of times slower than the recovery rate in your original world." Shakespeare further said.
Bianca frowned, and as she said, the energy slot of the generalized second holy relics is still empty.
"So, how about we exchange information?"
"Exchange information?"
Shakespeare's cynical face also became serious, "What is your goal to come here? In exchange, I will also tell you the purpose of the 'Calidonia' sailing."
“…”
Bianca and Rita were silent.
"Is there nothing to say? Then you may miss the opportunity to become a passenger in Caledonia?"
"Tsk." Bianca curled his lips.
The two sides confronted each other, as if Ye You had become an outsider. He raised his right hand and said, "Well, if you have any inconvenience to let me know, it would be better for me to retreat temporarily."
"You stay, Ye You."
“…”
"Anyway, we are partners who fight side by side, so you don't have to regard yourself as an outsider."
"Forehead……"
Bianca's words are indeed happy, but Ye You always feels a little subtle when he is said by a 12-year-old girl.
"Get back to the point." Bianca, as a Valkyrie, always maintained a stern gesture, "Rita, let's explain it to everyone."
"Okay, Lord Bianca."
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Ye You seemed to see the meaning of dodging in Bianka’s eyes.
After the maid behind her stood up to explain, Ye Youkai understood why Rita wanted to explain.
——This little girl probably is not used to using such complex and profound words to form language.
"First of all, have you heard of the word "Quantum Sea"?"
"In short, our task is to track the alien planes of the quantum sea and explore a special structure called the 'etheric anchor'.
To sum up mathematically, the Quantum Sea does not belong to the four-dimensional space-time that we are familiar with, but is a large category of "folded space" parallel to our original universe.
And the ‘Etheric anchor’ is a topological transformation between manifold planes. Its body may be a certain natural structure or even a certain artificial object…”
Bianca was drowsy when he heard it, while Ye You listened with relish.
