The naval ship *Sang Siluman* shot forward, not cleaving the water, but seemingly drawn across it by an invisible force, piercing the thick fog, accelerating toward the imminent crisis at Gibraltar. But barely a minute into the voyage, Jean Valéry wrenched the controls back, slowing the heavily transmuted vessel to a near stop just outside the visibility line of the derelict shipyard.

"Hold! Something is wrong," Jean declared.

His internal awareness—the enhanced perception given by the Tidal Elixir and his deeper understanding of the Nexus energy—screamed alarms that his auditory senses couldn't yet register. The sudden focus on Gibraltar had left an exploitable blind spot.

Gaston, his immense body leaning against a console, immediately braced. "What is it, Boss? Are they sending torpedoes?"

"No," Jean responded, his eyes scanning the radar screen. The newly applied Coral Strength Elixir provided superior stealth, turning the *Sang Siluman* into a virtual ghost ship, but the passive l

  • Real Alchemical Fight

    The final, overwhelming discharge of the Cartel’s ultimate anti-Alkimia weapon faded, leaving behind the cacophonous sound of churning, calcined water.Jean felt the paralysis lift as quickly as it had arrived, but the resulting physical exhaustion was immediate and total. The *Supreme Calcination Elixir*, designed to instantly Transmute organic and inorganic materials into inert salt, had struck him not as an external force but as a seismic shock within his own chemically-enhanced core. His body felt heavy, his crystallized veins burning from the effort to repel the conversion."Boss!" Gaston's desperate cry tore through the damaged comms. "Are you alright? Pierre, pull stabilization! Hurry!"Lucie and Pierre, operating a compact submersible attached to one of the surviving auxiliaries, maneuvered through the treacherous, oil-thickened water with uncanny precision. A highly concentrated burst of Tidal Elixir was fired at Jean's location, dissolving the immediate surrounding crude oil

  • Secret Communication Device

    The blast wave, a catastrophic synthesis of Cartel Anti-Alchemy Elixir and Jean’s super-dense Salt Shield, hit the water medium with a force that transcended sound.Jean felt the total annihilation of his creation—the Abyssal Salt Block that had been his final bastion—vanish. The shield vaporized into non-existence, the resulting chemical vacuum dragging Jean's crystallized body through the toxic, churning water like a rag doll. He barely maintained consciousness. He was thrown sideways, a torrent of corrosive Calcine Sea crude oil swallowing him whole. His connection to the Elixir was gone, the residual stabilization from Victor’s Obsidium utterly consumed. He was drowning, blind, paralyzed by chemical shock, and experiencing the agonizing acceleration of his Organic Salt Curse.*He failed. I failed,* the voice of the Atlantis Alchemist screamed in the vacuum of his mind.Then, strong hands seized him. Not the cold, metallic grip of the Cartel’s capture units, but the sure, powerful

  • Vanished

    The pressurized shriek that ended the transmission from Captain Neptunus’s frigate still echoed in the internal comms array of the *Sang Siluman*. Jean Valéry, gripping the controls, felt the insidious creep of the Sea Calcination Elixir now transforming the surrounding ocean. Every nautical mile closing the gap to Gibraltar intensified the oppressive feeling—sailing into liquid cement. His heart pounded not only with adrenaline but with the chilling knowledge that his final tactical gambit had been exposed: his own forces, split and surrounded, were about to be exploited to draw him back to Marseille.“Pierre! How is the hull Transmutation holding?” Jean yelled, staring intently at the transmuted hull sensors.“Maintaining silence, Boss!” Pierre shouted back, his forehead beaded with sweat, concentrating hard on stabilizing the Coral Strength Elixir. “But the hull feels… tight. Almost brittle! The calcifying water is trying to bond with the Coral coating!”“Lucie! Give me a precise l

  • Forced to Return Marseille

    The concentrated Anti-Alchemy Calcine Sea Elixir from the Cartel Command Frigate washed over them, instantly transforming the water medium surrounding Jean Valéry and his few remaining forces into a paralyzing, corrosive crude oil.“They’ve perfected the Total Transmutation of the Calcine Sea Elixir! The water… it has been completely altered outside of the base alchemical elements!” Jean yelled through the internal comms channel to Lucie, his voice hoarse, fighting the systemic paralysis that followed the catastrophic realization. “My power… it is muted!”“Jean!” Lucie’s voice was high-pitched and strained, echoing her panic as she struggled to swim against the thickening, suffocating crude-oil sea. The Calcine Sea Elixir was doing exactly what Cartel Neptunus had intended—turning the elemental water into something beyond his reach. Her Tidal Elixir-enhanced skin was starting to burn violently against the unknown corrosive liquid. “We’re dissolving! I cannot hold the anti-Transmutatio

  • They want Bastien dead

    The sudden cut of the radio signal left a violent void, but the ringing in Jean Valéry’s ears was loud enough to fill it. It wasn’t a ringing of silence. It was the desperate, drowning scream of his first external force, Bastien, battling the Sea Calcification Elixir at Gibraltar. Jean’s breath hitched in his throat, and he clenched his fist around the transmuted helm of the *Sang Siluman*.“Gaston!” Jean roared, turning from the console with unnatural quickness. “Full mobilization! Prepare for immediate trajectory leap! We're not running to Corsica. We’re running to the funeral home, and we’re going to steal the bodies back.”Gaston's massive figure instantly solidified with grim purpose, his transmuted silver eyes reflecting the crisis. His voice, honed by the Tidal Elixir into a tool of absolute command, resonated across the invisible bridge of the *Sang Siluman*.“ABS Unit! Sector Orange protocol active! Battle positions now!” Gaston shouted, already directing the remaining core c

  • the Supreme Transmutation Elixir

    Jean Valéry slammed his foot down on the pedal of *Sang Siluman*, engaging the Ghost Ship Mode with every fiber of his being. The powerful, silent roar of the alchemical engines surged beneath the deck. His muscles locked up, protesting the drain of the now-limited Tidal Elixir stabilizing his system. He didn’t care. The final, panicked message from Bastien echoed the ultimate threat: Sea Calcination Elixir in the Strait of Gibraltar. A systemic shutdown of the entire Mediterranean Nexus was imminent. He knew that the desperate order he’d given—FIRE ON THE NEXUS!—was their only chance to destabilize the Alchemical Exploitation Elixir before the Cartel finished their Great Harvest."Gaston! We have to stay hidden," Jean commanded, hands white-knuckled on the controls. The radar screen remained clean, thanks to the Coral Strength Elixir, yet he knew the entire Mediterranean was about to boil over with Sea Calcination Elixir. "Lucie and Pierre! Stabilize the ship! We need total active so
