"Wow, who would have thought it actually worked?"
Dorothy looked at the twenty to thirty-ter-long chanical dragon in front of her sowhat surprised, blinking bewilderingly.
Though she constantly ntioned it was just a model, in reality, this thing wasn't remotely close to a model. Apart from its size truly being scaled down to a mini version, none of the warship functionalities were compromised; it was a genuine miniature warship.
Therefore, even soone as confident as her didn't really expect to succeed on the first try. This attempt was just out of an itch to tinker around, and failing would have been normal, serving as an enriching experience for her future official warship construction.
After all, with the fifty-year agreent with Mother Superior, she would definitely need to assemble one or two fleets later, but being as broke as she was, buying an existing warship was absolutely out of the question. Her only option was to build one herself.
But this first real attempt at shipbuilding seed suspiciously smooth. There were no glitches, no anomalies, just a smooth completion.
"Ah, so, just the five of us, in one afternoon, actually built a warship? Are Witch Warships really this easy to make?"
Audrey, foolishly watching the roaring white dragon in front of her, voiced her doubt through the Puppet.
In Little Fox's mind, a Witch Warship had always been an elite thing, the pinnacle of Witch World's scientific achievents, both sophisticated and challenging to create. Typically, the building period for even the most basic warship spanned several years, and those that might beco Legendary Warships required decades.
Well, at least that's what the books said, but now having personally participated in constructing one and witnessing its completion, Little Fox couldn't help feeling she might have been misled before.
"What are you thinking, Audrey? Although we can indeed call it a warship, the word 'war' is sowhat misleading. Real warships require military-grade materials, which alone might take months or years just to slt and shape, not to ntion the subsequent forging. And here we've just used civil construction materials."
"Besides, the gap in construction difficulty and workload between these mini warships and full-sized ones is massive. Don't start thinking real warships are that simple," Senior Mia quickly said, correcting the nearly misguided thoughts of her naïve fox junior.
The materials used for this construction were leftovers from house building, and while they were high-end civil materials, they were still just materials within the category of construction, incomparable to specialized military materials.
Thus, this mini warship was sowhat superficial. It could serve as a commuting vehicle or handle ordinary skirmishes satisfactorily, but it would be a stretch for battles above the level of Great Witches, barely surviving a few hits in the frontline.
Still...
Looking at the White Dragon Warship in front of her, Senior Mia still couldn't calm her emotions.
Theoretically, just by upgrading the materials of this warship, it could actually go directly to the battlefield.
Even Sophia, who usually maintains a stoic expression, couldn't hide her surprise, having initially just accompanied the young mistress for fun, yet here they were with a successfully built warship.
But really, a few little witches who haven't even graduated from the academy managed to create one of Witch World's most advanced technological products. Even if the materials were significantly downgraded and it wasn't a high-level warship, the whole thing still seed quite illogical, didn't it?
As for senior Fanny, the rry Maker, right now, she couldn't even bother to be amused. She transford back into the Witch Hat and perched on Dorothy's head, extending cute little tentacles to tightly hug her host's head.
Whimpering, Dorothy, when I beco Upper-Level, will you be my chief technical advisor? Together, we could really take the Witch World to new heights.
At just sixteen years old she succeeded in building a warship; imagining what Dorothy could do at one hundred sixty was sothing even the Hat Senior Sister dared not think. Such talent had to be closely guarded, not to be whisked away.
Finally, Dorothy took an empty wine bottle out of her pocket and aid its mouth at the White Dragon Warship. With a swoosh, the ship shrunk and got sucked into the bottle.
The hobody witch screwed on the cap tightly and looked at the tiny warship inside the bottle, the once formidable and imposing chanical White Dragon now curled up soundly asleep.
She snapped her fingers, and two vines dropped from the massive oak tree behind her, forming a small bottle holder. Dorothy placed the wine bottle on the vine holder, and just like that, it beca a parking spot.
"Alright, it's getting late, and we're all tired. Let's test the warship's performance tomorrow. For now, it's ti for a celebration feast. You guys take a bath first; I'll start preparing dinner," she said, feeling very pleased as she turned to her dear friends.
This sky island already had a hot spring pool, which they had used before. But unlike the previous ti when they had to enclose it with temporary tents, this ti during the island's renovation, she specifically remodeled this hot spring pool.
