Otherworld Bone Dragon Operation Guide

Chapter 70 The White Triangle
24 hours had passed on Earth time. Su Ming assessed his own magic power and felt that he could begin the second teleportation to the naval base.

He connected with the link and first had Miao Xin explore the area around the port.

The continuous search last night and during the day was quite intense. The soldiers have all rested, with only a few personnel standing guard nearby.

Su Ming manipulated the little thorn to swim up from the silt on the seabed, reached out and touched the bottom of the Independent-class littoral combat ship, and quickly launched a spell.

"Transformation & Miniature Summoning!"

In the darkness, the eerie light was barely noticeable, spreading segment by segment across the entire ship. Even though the target was only the hull, this was the first time Su Ming had ever teleported something of such a large size. He quickly felt the pressure, and his magic power rapidly depleted.

As expected, the magic was just enough when the light covered the entire ship.

Material matching, miniaturized reconstruction!
This part of the magic power consumption is much less. In Su Ming's hand, a pile of metal materials gathered and assembled into a sixty-centimeter-long ship model.

On Earth, the hull of the littoral combat ship lost its luster from bottom to top, disintegrating and spreading. The ship, which cost nearly seven hundred million US dollars, broke apart like quicksand, falling into the water and creating a large splash.

Amidst the turbulent waters, Su Ming turned and submerged, handing control over to Miao Xin.

The order is: run for your life!

****
Turning our gaze back, we saw Zijin holding the freshly made ship model, examining it from all angles.

Unlike normal monohull ships, the Independence-class has three separate underwater sections: the main hull in the middle and long, narrow auxiliary hulls on either side. The main deck and superstructure are built on these three hulls, making it exceptionally spacious.

"A strange ship shape. Is this the trimaran you were talking about?" Violet asked.

Su Ming nodded. The Independent-class littoral combat ship's combat performance was nothing to write home about, but its unique trimaran design was still very useful in this other world where sails were everywhere.

"Can you run fast with a width like that?"

"It's not good at low speeds, but its performance at medium and high speeds is excellent."

Zijin bent the hull, "If the stern is this thick, the sea monster will indeed have a hard time entangled—but what about the bow?"

Based on current data, the thickest part of the sea monster's tentacles is approximately 60 meters long. The width of the rear section of the Independence-class destroyer reaches over 30 meters, a width typically found only on warships of 20,000 tons.

The sea monster's tentacles couldn't completely wrap around the ship, so it couldn't effectively strangle it. However, the front half of the ship was only about 10 meters in diameter, which was a weak point.

"The front half can be changed into a whole circle to reinforce the structure."

Round shapes have the strongest resistance to compression; it's like squeezing an egg with your hand—it takes a lot of force to crush it.

"We can build more watertight compartments," the scholar suggested.

"Too."

****
After adjusting some details, Su Ming went to bed early, as his magic power had been greatly depleted over the past two days.

When he woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky.

Feeling that his magic power had mostly recovered, Su Ming stretched and walked onto the deck.

Violet has already instructed Black Skull to steer the ship out of the island's shallow bay and back into the ocean.

"You've done all the preparations?" Su Ming said.

“Hmm, I’m really looking forward to the new form of the Bone Fortress,” the scholar said matter-of-factly.

Su Ming stretched his neck and unfolded the bone imprint. Based on the ship model, he began to reconstruct the shape of the bone fortress. He first assembled the main hull in the middle, then the auxiliary hulls on both sides, and finally built the deck.

The ship's length was reduced compared to the Zhiyuan, but its width was increased significantly.

When it came time to build the superstructure, Su Ming discovered that there was a significant shortage of materials.

"Can we use these bird bones on the island?" Su Ming asked.

As the only seabird habitat within a radius of 100 kilometers, this small island has a large number of seabird carcasses. Although the bones of a single bird are very small, the accumulated amount over the years is quite considerable.

"These bones vary in quality and need to be purified and nurtured over time—but they're fine for building the upper deck of the ship," Violet replied, as she walked out of the cabin and headed towards the island.

Su Ming then noticed that all the zombies had been sent to the island and, under the leadership of the white skeleton, were finishing up a large-scale magic array.

You were prepared all along.

"I knew you'd be after these bird bones yesterday," Violet transmitted. She had already flown to the highest point of the island, and a bone staff, glowing with scattered eerie light, appeared in her hand.

Su Xiang recalled that when he first met Galio, the latter was holding this very bone staff. Its name should be "The End," a holy-grade undead weapon.

"The magic circle is complete. I'm about to begin," said Zi Jin. "I'll handle the summoning; you assemble it."

【no problem! 】

Zijin took a deep breath, raised her bone staff with both hands, and a series of runes appeared around her, expanding outwards in circles until they gradually became a vast, surging sea of ​​runes.

The magic circle beneath the scholar's feet lit up, and the magical pathways extended, covering the entire island.

Wide-area, group, native model, undead summoning!

This is the academic name of the large-scale spell that Violet is using, but it is usually called by another, more widely known name: the Scourge of the Dead!
Countless bone birds emerged from the island's soil, soared into the air, and converged into a magnificent line. They circled once before swooping down on the bone fortress.

Su Ming has fully unfolded the bone imprint, accepting a large amount of input from these bone birds to construct the upper structure of the compartment.

As the assembly was gradually completed, the new hull emerged from the water.

This is a uniquely shaped ship with a sharp bow and a slender central hull, perfectly suited for navigating waves. The narrow side hulls provide lateral stability. From about one-third of the way down the hull, the ship widens considerably, providing ample space for the superstructure and decks.

Two larger propellers were mounted side by side below the waterline in the center of the hull.

The original Independence used water propulsion, but Su Ming lacked fuel for its gas turbines and had to continue using steam propellers. Therefore, this system was unusable.

We can only discuss this further after we resolve the issue of fuel supply.

At the bow of the ship, Su Ming cleared a deep, circular pit that led all the way to the bottom of the cabin, a space reserved for another large piece of equipment.

"Do you have a name you'd like to be called?" Su Ming asked Zi Jin.

The scholar sat kneeling on the ground, her bone staff resting flat on her lap. Having just unleashed a massive spell, she couldn't move, so she simply sat quietly, enjoying the sea breeze.

"A very beautiful ship." She thought for a moment, "The White Triangle?"

"Then this one!" Su Ming said. He no longer dared to come up with names randomly; he didn't dare to use names like "Independence" or "Three-Body Problem," lest he attract some trouble.

This time, he didn't use Chinese characters, but instead used an otherworldly script to engrave his name on the ship's side. Afterward, he locked the bone mark and put it away.

New hull completed!
