First, they sent the Earth Knights to mine on Mind Island, followed by dispatching Cross·Thorn to the Great Whirlpool, accompanied by a meticulously reinforced two-masted sailing ship.

The ship was equipped with highly-accurate sextants, Magic Platforms, and other devices for positioning.

After reaching the Great Whirlpool, Ach directly pushed the two-masted sailing ship into it, while Cross clung to the main mast, anxiously keeping his eyes fixed on the Whirlpool Deep Well at the whirlpool’s center. The ship was surrounded by a dense array of crystal spotlights designed to illuminate the environment.

Liszt rode the Little Fire Dragon Leo circling above the Whirlpool Deep Well, his special telescope aimed at the inside, waiting for the sailing ship to enter and cast light into the depths, hoping to discover some new secrets.

The two-masted ship kept circling within the whirlpool, rapidly approaching its center.

Ach, standing on a seashell, was lifted by a Water Tornado at the edge of the Great Whirlpool—the Water Tornado could not continue deeper into the whirlpool; the rapid water currents and chaotic magic power could easily shred it.

The Eye of Magic Power was deployed to observe changes in the Great Whirlpool.

After about half an hour, the sailing ship finally plunged into the Whirlpool Deep Well at the whirlpool’s center.

Liszt carefully peered through his telescope at the deep well and saw the ship’s crystal spotlights indeed illuminate its interior; however, the inner walls still seemed to be just fast-moving water. But then, in the next moment, the ship suddenly passed through a hazy mist, and its hull quickly disappeared into the fog, with the lights extinguishing too.

The Great Whirlpool then returned to its previous calm.

As if nothing had happened.

Liszt retracted his telescope and, piloting Leo, returned to the deck of Flame Number, with Ach following swiftly back inside. Inside the cabin, Kenley and several Grand Magicians were eagerly manning the Magic Platform, maintaining continuous communication with Captain Ganeel Treebark Roundshield.

“Report the communication results,” Liszt commanded as he entered.

Kenley, directly operating the Magic Platform, didn’t look up as she responded, “Feedback from Discover’s Magic Platform shows everything is normal; no new ships have been detected.”

Ten minutes later.

The Magic Platform finally relayed new information: “Your Highness, we report that a ship has flown out from the mountain waterfall cave and fallen into a forest nearby… A Sky Knight is flying towards us, it must be Viscount Cross!”

A few minutes after that.

The Magic Device continued to report: “It is indeed Viscount Cross; Viscount Cross is in good physical condition and states that the voyage through the Great Whirlpool was successful… After entering the Whirlpool Deep Well, the crystal spotlights went out, but the surroundings lit up with myriad lightning-web or lightning-like light trajectories.”

“Explain in detail.”

“Viscount Cross, clinging to the mast and unable to move, felt the ship enveloped by a tremendous force and cast out directly. After being thrown about for five minutes, it finally passed through the dense web of lightning and emerged at the mouth of the waterfall cave, where the spotlight’s light returned.”

“Describe the physical sensations while passing through the Great Whirlpool.”

“The body felt good, with no abnormalities, but Viscount Cross remembers not breathing during the transit, as if even his heart had not beaten; it was as though everything was paused, and only the ship was wrapped by some force, flying along a twisted course.”

It’s flying, not sailing, which means there’s actually no water in the channel.

The waterfall is normal, but the ship took flight, indicating that although the channel is within the waterfall cave, it has no connection to the waterfall.

After all questions were asked, Liszt signaled Kenley to send a message: “Prepare to welcome me; I will personally traverse the Great Whirlpool and come to your location.”

“Your Highness, without more experimental data, it’s very dangerous to traverse the Great Whirlpool rashly, and nobody can compare with your safety,” Kenley raised her head to advise, her magical research career in the Flame Territory had been wonderful, and she didn’t want any turmoil because of an accident with Liszt.

Ach didn’t speak, but simply cast a worried glance; everything was said without a word.

Liszt gave a slight smile, replying with a reassuring look, and said nonchalantly, “My decision is made; there is no need for any delay in this trip, it’s just a magic teleportation array, after all. As a Son of Glory, bathed in the knight’s glory, what is there to fear?” It was actually the power of fate that gave him great confidence.

The Smoke Mission led him through, suggesting that the power of fate had already shrouded the Magic Teleportation Array.

In a word—Arranged!

…

Ach stood at the edge of the Great Whirlpool.

Liszt soared in one leap, landing on Leo’s Dragon Tooth Platform, waving his hand towards Ach before quickly resonating in Dragon Knight Resonance, entering Dragon Rider Mode.

Immediately, he activated the Dragon Eye Trajectory, allowing the world’s magic structure to present itself clearly within his field of vision.

“Oh ho!”

Leo let out an excited roar, its spirit in perfect harmony with Liszt’s, brimming with the courage and passion for adventure within their inner worlds.

Wings flapping in flight, Dragon Dou Qi circulating as one, Dragon Might subtly inherent.

Slicing through the air above the sea, they headed straight for the center of the distant whirlpool, and looking into the pitch-black Whirlpool Deep Well, Liszt couldn’t help but shout for himself and Leo, “Forward, Leo; let us conquer the Great Whirlpool together!”

“Oh ho!”

Leo folded its wings, diving headfirst into the depths of the Whirlpool Deep Well.

At first, the deep section was nothing more than an ordinary whirlpool, with currents, roaring sounds, and the gravity of falling. Within the Dragon Eye Trajectory were countless chaotic but orderly magical lines, outlining every detail of the well’s structure. But just one second into the fall, a sudden burst of light enveloped them.

Then, he and Leo vanished into the misty vapor of the Whirlpool Deep Well.

Or rather, they had left the sea’s Great Whirlpool and entered another unknown space. A powerful stalling force enveloped them in an instant, making it difficult to move, but unlike Cross·Thorn and the others who were completely immobilized, he and Leo managed to struggle and move.

However, there was also a tremendous repulsive force — the tossing power that Cross had spoken of — propelling him and Leo forward, unable to stay in this space.

After adapting to the intense light, the Dragon Eye Trajectory gradually revealed the magical structure inside the space.

A dense network of threads sketched out a wormhole-like space, where the magic didn’t belong to any known element like water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, ice, or dark.

But it gave Liszt a familiar feeling.

“Is this… the magic of spatial power?” His thoughts were clear, and the Dragon Dou Qi within flowed normally, “The Space Gem left by the Formless Dragon, which I use every day, gives me this feel — both solid and ethereal, void yet tangibly real.”

Suddenly.

He discovered that behind these strands of space magic power, there was a faintly discernible huge net. This net revealed only the tip of the iceberg, with the rest hidden deep in the unknown space. However, Liszt quickly sensed that this net was the source of Ach’s magic — the Magic Web!

The Great Whirlpool had opened a Magic Teleportation Array, carving out a wormhole space as if it punctured the Magic Web and thrust a tube through it, straining to maintain the web’s compression of the wormhole space.

The Magic Web seemed to devour the wormhole space, whereas the space’s magic power steadily maintained the wormhole’s existence.

One active, one still, achieving a balanced rhythm.

Boom!

Before Liszt could continue observing, his vision violently changed, and he had burst out of the wormhole space, arriving inside a mountain peak. A roaring waterfall above him, rock cliffs below — or rather, he had flown out of the wormhole space upside down.

“Maneuver and rotate, flap wings and fly!”

Man and Dragon, minds connected, swiftly twisted their bodies to maintain balance, and as the repulsive force behind them disappeared, Leo suddenly flapped its wings, taking flight once more!

Before their eyes.

A brand new world lay before them, an endless expanse of Wild Forest, with damp air filled with a primitive essence, and behind them, a mountain peak towering thousands of meters high.

Flame Islands!

The future kingdom!

The king had arrived!
