The fog was dissipating.
For the first time since the battle began, the thick fog that had lingered over the Frost maritime zone showed signs of disappearing. Around the Sea Mist, towards the direction of Frost, from the sea's surface to the high heavens, all the dense fog was receding at a speed visible to the naked eye. The all-enveloping gloom faded, and the entire sea area gradually became clear.
And on the sea surface where the dense fog had dissipated, one could see ships still aflame, the grotesque shapes of counterfeit fleets, and countless remains and fragments bobbing on the waves, along with burning grease.
Thick smoke billowed, spreading over the sea as the dense fog retreated.
First Mate Aiden was the first to run to the window, staring at the sea outside where the fog was gradually disappearing. It took him a long time before he finally shouted, "The fog is receding! Captain! The fog is dissipating!"
