Master Of None

"Knowing that there was a danger of undead around made everyone on edge. The ships were immediately set up to be able to defend against any undead monsters of ship wreck victims. They all knew that the undead would be a tough opponent if they managed to get on to the ships at all. However, this was not the main concern.

"We can prepare to face undead and unknown monsters. We have the ability to scout out the maze. We just need to be able to actually make it through, and breaking the coral will not work." Leon was making this a focus since he did not want to attract anything more dangerous by breaking the rocks and coral.

"We have the earth mages. It might be the only way to get through all of this." Scylla was ready to accept attracting dangerous monsters if this was the only way to get through all of this. The coral maze was a mess, but it was something that she knew they had the tools to handle.

"I don't think we should do that. The corals are alive like plants and monsters. Some of them will attack whatever tries to break them. Even the seaweeds under the deathly energy here could attack us if we try to break away its home." Since Alma had this knowledge, she had to make sure to speak against this dangerous idea to break their way through.

"Then we use water mages to rise us over the coral. Walker should be able to provide natural mana for us. If the worst comes to worst, we might need to ask all of the dragons to fly us through this." Scylla was not giving up. If she couldn't use the water to get them over this, then she was going to have to look to the sky. The only ones strong enough to work together and move a single ship would be the royal dragons. However, that would come at a large risk.

"I can't use that much natural mana on every ship here. You know that it would be able to bring us part of the way but there is a difference between making the water higher in a river and the ocean.' Walker could easily counter this idea. The natural and water mana he would need would be massive. Well over what he could control let alone safely control.

"And if the royal dragon try to work together to move a ship…It is not the best idea." Su knew that she had to counter the idea that having the dragons just carry them over was good. The royal dragons did not all get along but it was also risky to have many powerful pulling forces lifting a ship out of the water with risk to pull it apart or drop it.

"That means we anchor here and map a way through. That's that. And we will have to prepare the golems to handle heavier damage from exploring pufferfish. I will also activate the repair golems to build us the resistant walls we have on the ship." The king of the surface was already walking away. But luckily, Gil had heard of the resistant walls.

"The walls are the plates of metal slid in right by the railings. They can be brought up to make a harder to climb wall. It was made in case we came against monsters that wanted to climb on board. We lose some sightline but we gain a better defense. Since there might be undead, I would rather have the defenses." Gil had asked around a lot and was still happy that he could shoot arrows over the higher walls of the ship.

"That is the plan then. I will let the merfolk, my aquatic soldiers, the tamers, and the golems map out our way as we go. They will lead the ships through step by step so we can defend them if needed. Someone speak to Ventus and look for a mapping of the coral from the air. That will be our baseline. And all of you, return to your ships and prepare for whatever battles are coming. The sun is setting." Scylla is unhappy not to make major progress. She could see land right there, but they couldn't just abandon the ships and fly there. They had to set up their own small port if they wanted to leave and come here again.

It didn't take long for everyone to find places to help. The crews were on the move with a ticking clock mocking them. The more that the sun set the more that everyone felt the increase in ominous aura around them. Ti was like the death energy in the darkness mana was mocking them. It was saying that it was coming to take away their lives too, just as the other ships before.

The good thing was that the ships were firmly anchored, the waves could not push them in to the coral. The bad thing though was that the mana seemed to be a little chaotic due to the higher amount of darkness mana and death mana collecting together here.

Walker had been hard at work helping where he could. The movement had brought out a lot of dangers. Many of the crew had been bruised or cut by the moving parts. So that the whalers would not use all their mana, Walker had been healing first. He could easily take on some burden instead of Alice who would be singing for most of the night.

The real worry came to the healers that could be making the defensive arrangements. Alice had already written a new song to expand her shield in to a bubble. The song of shields was altered a lot to be the song of protective light. She was able to alter it very easily for the way that she wanted it to work. Unfortunately, it would be claiming more mana. That was where the healers would come in.

Forming a light barrier with a healing skill was rare. Not every healer could do it. Yet, providing their mana to help a light barrier was much easier. The healing skills they used could be used to keep a light barrier active and full. That way the undead monsters that appeared as the sun full set would not be able to board the ships at all.

Gil had also joined the movement to pull out and distribute the light elemental arrows he had. These wither spike arrows were the arrows that he had found could heal someone from a distance. He had not used them at all since they damaged someone to heal them. It was also hard to heal someone with an arrow in their body. Overall, it felt like a very rough cost and loss every single time they were used. It wasn't fair and only helped in specific situations.

Yet, the arrows were perfect for this. The undead could not be exhaled and instead would be damaged. That meant that the arrow could damage them and then heal them causing more damage. That waldo worked well with the other light elemental arrows he had that could just wrap themselves in light. Especially since Alice would be attracting a lot of light elemental mana around them.

"Ship sighted!" The call that went out and made everyone stop moving was a simple one. Ship sighted. It was completely unexpected and even shocking that another ship would be anywhere near here. Especially since there were so many ships wrecked on the coral and rocks ahead of them.

"Walker, get over here and use the all around appraisal skill on this thing!" Gil was halfway down the look out tower of the shop. He knew that what was approaching them was wrong. Just looking at it and the strange glow around it made it wrong. But Walker would have the remaining questions answered as soon as he used his all around appraisal skill.

Without hesitating, Walker sprinted and got to the lowest height he needed to be able to spot what Gil and the other archers had seen. When the greenish glowing shop appeared, Walker could tell it was made from wood. Rotting wood. There were also figures moving on the ship which had to be crew. The sails were torn but it still moved without issue. It was also much older than any other ship Walker had seen before.

'Ghost ship

The ghost ship was formed from the souls and the rotting ships that crashed on this coral reef. The undead that live on it have a slightly higher intelligence but are all controlled by one powerful undead. The undead captain has to be defeated to destroy the entire ghost ship. It is the core of the undead and the ship itself.

The ship is considered a deadly undead since it can be repaired by the other broken ship parts. It is often only formed after many have died in the same spot over a long period of time. Those that attempt to resist it will often find that they are overwhelmed since the ship can also control undead monsters. Many of the…'

Walker didn't dare to keep reading the all around appraisal. This was going to be dangerous. This undead was more than just one undead. There were many.
