Reincarnated as an Energy with a System-Novel

Chapter 1440  New City

The submarine floated up to the surface of the ocean and everyone quickly walked up the hatch to arrive outside.

Jasmine quickly opened the door in the small 2-meter box of a room and walked out into the tiny 5-meter-long surface that they first had mistakenly thought to be the entire ship.

In front of them stood a large fishing dock, with a small town and a forest on the side of it. It didn't seem as though it was a very populated city at all. If it was, they were hiding it quite well on the dock.

Few ships were docked there at all, with the ones that were docked being quite tiny and not ssort of cargo ship. They could work as one, but cargo ships had long since changed to large ships that could hold a long of people and cargo.

"Where are we?" Tony asked. "I've visited quite a few places in my life, but this does not feel like a place I have ever cto before."

"It looks not very developed either," Jasmine said. "I can't see a sign of modernity in the face of this place."

"It's not very modern, I can agree to that," Ning said. "It's a difficult place for ships to cto, so you won't find many things here."

"Oh," Tony said. "Then why are we here?"

"For two reasons," Ning said. "First, experience. I just want everyone to have been through a place such as this in their life at the very least."

He then turned toward Tim and Jasmine. "The second reason, is I want the two of you to record all the treasures you can find in this place. If you can record more than 10 by the twe leave in… say 3 days, I will tell you the next two treasures we will be getting and you can choose who gets what."

"If you don't complete it, I will leave it up to a coin flip once again," Ning said.

"We will do it," Jasmine spoke first. She had been the victim of the coin flip once, and she was not going to go through the sthing again.

"We should be able to do so," Tim said. "But are there even 10 treasures in this town?"

"There are, that I can promise you," Ning said and moved the ship forward. As they moved, Tony noticed a slight problem that the others had seemingly ignored for sreason. It was perhaps because they had been underwater so long, the other two didn't notice anything, but he had a watch with him and he had the correct time.

He looked at his watch, ignoring the blue glow, and looked at the time.

It was 9 am in the morning. Then he looked at the sky. The sun was closer to mid-noon.

'How did we miss 3 hours?' he wondered. He looked at the tagain and understood what must have happened.

'I set my tto Horace's twhen I arrived there,'' he thought. 'So for us to have moved 3 hours away, it means that we moved 3 hours toward the east overnight.'

He could only imagine the distance they had to move to arrive at a place so far away in just 12 hours. 'How fast did this thing move underwater?

He was quite a lot more impressed by this vessel after learning that. The fact that it could go underwater alone was a big deal, and now he realized it was even capable of moving so quickly.

Not to mention it did all of that while being completely smooth the entire time. There was never a second last night when he had felt any sort of turbulence.

Even Zeppelin's had more turbulence than this submarine did when they were flying in the open sky.

'This is an incredible vessel,' he thought. Then, his eyes moved toward the slowly approaching island. He wondered what city or town that was.

As the others had mentioned, it didn't look as developed at all. It still looked like the islands from the older days when science hadn't caught up to them just yet.

'3 hours away from Horace,' Tony thought. 'Even Ningflags is only about 2 hours of difference. Are we beyond Nineflags then?' Just as that thought came, another thought filled Tony's mind. He didn't think why he hadn't thought of that just yet.

"Sir Ning, have we crossed the reef?" he asked. "Are we in the Northern Hemisphere?"

"Of course," Ning said. "I assumed that was obvious, was it not?"

"We're in the Northern Hemisphere?" Tim asked with a surprised look on his face. Jasmine was equally surprised. Never in her life had she imagined that she would be visiting beyond the Great Reef.

To the two the the Great Reef was a massive barrier that separated the world into two almost not communicating halves. Hearing that they had cto this side made them feel giddy on the inside.

It was an exciting feeling.

"I can't believe I'm on the other side of the Reef," Jasmine said. "I don't even know many of the countries that exist on this side. Which one is this?"

"I know a few," Tim said. "But only the big ones. This one is too small to be the ones I know."

"I doubt you will know where this is. We have traveled nearly 600 kilometers overnight," Tony said. "Sir Ning, would you mind telling us where you have taken us to? What country is this?"

"This… is not country," Ning said.

"No… country?" Tony asked, confusion filling his mind. "How could this island not be under any country? All islands are under scountry, or they are a country themselves."

"Oh, but not this one," Ning said. "For this is the Island of Rumgrave."

Tony's eyes narrowed before opening wide with fear. "Yo… you brought us to Rumgrave?" he asked out loud. "You brought us to the biggest pirate city in the world?"
