"Alert! A group of flying monsters have been detected ahead. Please prepare for impact!"
"Alert! A group of flying monsters have been detected ahead. Please prepare for impact!"
The alarm sounded repeatedly on the main cabin broadcast, and the butler and waiter hurried back to their original seats and fastened themselves with seat belts.
Tianyang knocked on the table and used his authority as a member of parliament to retrieve the detection footage of the airship.
The image of the high-altitude sea of clouds immediately appeared on the electronic light screen. The sunlight shone on the sea of clouds, as if a golden carpet was laid.
Just off in the distance, a dark cloud was approaching rapidly.
When Tianyang enlarged the image, he could see some flying monsters appearing on the screen. These monsters looked like birds, with membranous wings, long and sharp beaks, and a circle of short luminous whiskers fluttering on their necks.
At this time, the flying ship was ready for air combat.
Next to Tianyang, Xitong glanced at the light screen on the table, then picked up the napkin next to it and wiped her mouth.
Then the little girl closed her eyes and seemed to fall asleep.
After a few seconds, she opened her eyes again, as if she had no idea that she had just fallen asleep, and picked up the bear biscuits and started eating them again.
Tianyang glanced at her and didn't care.
At this time, the flying monsters in the picture began to change direction. They turned in groups on the sea of clouds, but left to the left side of the airship's route.
Soon, those evil gods disappeared from the screen.
"The flying evil group has left the route. The alarm is lifted. I repeat, the flying evil group has left the route. The alarm is lifted."
After hearing this broadcast, the butlers and waiters in the main cabin breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they are confident in the air combat capabilities of the airship, it is inevitable that the flight will be bumpy during combat, and some tactical maneuvers may even give passengers unforgettable experiences, or even leave a trauma on their minds, so that they dare not take this kind of high-altitude transportation again.
"it's a pity."
Wang Lingjun sighed, "I originally wanted to use these to learn Wang's new sword style."
As he spoke, he glanced at Tianyang quietly.
Tian Yang didn't even turn his head, and said casually: "You can catch up and test the sword. With Mr. Wang's speed, it should be easy."
The muscles on Wang Lingjun's face stiffened for a moment, then he laughed and said, "Of course, but forget about it today. There may be other groups of evil gods later. It won't be too late to test the sword with them then."
Tianyang did not expose his thoughts. He smiled and turned to look at the information inside the parliament.
There were no more setbacks along the way.
Tianyang closed his eyes and took a nap on the way. When he opened his eyes, he arrived at the Castle of Glory.
While still in the air, looking out the porthole, one could almost take in the entire fortress.
It is dusk now.
The sky in the distance was dyed orange, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the municipal building in the center of the fortress, casting a huge shadow that covered several blocks below.
As the tallest building in the fortress, the 60-story Municipal Building points to the sky like a sharp sword.
This is the landmark building of Fort Glorious. The layout of the entire fortress is centered on the municipal building and is divided into 12 major areas modeled after the time zones of a clock.
Looking down from the air, the buildings in the fortress are densely packed. The aerial rail trains, overpasses and ground roads form the three-dimensional transportation network of Fort Glory.
They are like the blood vessels of the city. Rows of silver-white aerial trains shuttle back and forth in the fully enclosed, translucent aerial tunnels. Magnetic vehicles of various colors and shapes run like ants on the overpasses and ground roads.
Seeing such a large city for the first time, Xitong leaned on the porthole, making loud noises with her little mouth.
This was also Tianyang's first time in Glory Castle. Looking at the city below, he couldn't help but compare it with Lieyang Castle.
Compared with Glory Castle, the entire Fiery Sun Castle is probably not as big as a city area.
If Radiant Castle is a giant, then Fiery Sun Castle is a seven or eight year old child.
"This is the super fortress." Tianyang exclaimed in a low voice.
As super fortresses, Emerald Fort is slightly inferior. Judging from its scale, Glory Fort can be said to be the best on earth.
Of course, the airship would not drive directly into the Glorious Castle. Following instructions, it began to descend in altitude and eventually entered the air port to the west of the fortress.
It is connected to the main road of Glory Castle, 'Morning Light Avenue', which allows quick access to the city and various urban areas.
There is also an air train station in the airport that goes directly to the municipal building and stops at other stations along the way, allowing you to go anywhere you want to go.
After a slight bump, the airship completed its landing and the door of the main cabin opened automatically. Tianyang and others unbuckled their seat belts and walked out of the main cabin.
Walking down from the elevator deck, Tianyang saw the entire airport. There were several airships parked on the ground, and in the sky, airships were still landing from time to time.
Just below the stern, there were several magnetic vehicles parked. At this moment, one of them opened, and Lin Jianping and Li Yi, dressed in white, walked out.
Seeing that the city lord actually came to pick him up in person, Tianyang was a little flattered. He smiled and nodded to Lin Jianping, then pulled Xiao Xitong down.
After Tianyang and his party got off the airship, Lin Jianping came forward with Li Yi, looked at Xitong, and said with a smile: "Is this your daughter?"
Tianyang rubbed Xitong's head and said, "Call someone."
Xitong grabbed Tianyang's trouser leg, looked at Lin Jianping and called out, "Hello, Uncle Lin."
Lin Jianping laughed, bent down and touched Xitong's head and said, "Hello to you too."
Li Yi also came over, pinched Xitong's cheek and said, "What a cute little guy, do you like candy?"
She took out a few candies and placed them in Xitong's hands. The little girl looked at Tianyang first, and only dared to accept them when she saw her father nod. Then she said sweetly to Liyi, "Thank you, sister."
Li Yi was stunned for a moment, then she laughed so hard that her body shook, "What a sweet little mouth."
Seeing that Xitong was so happy with her, Lin Jianping's liking for the little girl increased by another point.
After Tianyang introduced Xun and others, Lin Jianping waved his hand.
"Come on, I'll show you around."
Everyone got on the bus.
Lin Jianping had obviously made arrangements in advance.
Tianyang rode in the same car with him.
Xun, Xiaoniao and their families were received by Li Yi and sat in the same car.
Xitong stuck to Tianyang, so she also sat in Lin Jianping's car.
The compartment of the magnetic car is quite spacious, and there is even room for a small table with alcoholic drinks and some snacks on it.
These snacks finally ended up in Xitong's stomach.
In the car, Tianyang watched the airport gradually move away, watched the magnetic energy car drive onto a dedicated channel, and saw the city below in the distance.
"You should know about Harvest Castle."
Lin Jianping asked at this time.
Tian Yang withdrew his gaze from the window, nodded and said, "Are you referring to the attack on the Elemental Heart?"
"That's right. All the Level 6 Elemental Hearts met with misfortune, including a Heavenly Rank one."
Lin Jianping frowned slightly and said: "This matter may not be that simple. I am worried that it has nothing to do with the black people."
If it has nothing to do with the black people, then it is man-made.
Tian Yang was puzzled and asked: "If it was man-made, why did they attack the 'Heart of Elements'? What was the purpose of doing so?"
Lin Jianping lowered his voice and said, "After being attacked, all those 'Elemental Hearts' lost their power and degenerated into ordinary people."
"Then they rapidly aged and died."
"So I guess the purpose of the other party doing this might not be to kill the 'Heart of Elements'."
Tian Yang was stunned for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "You mean, the murderer's goal is the power of the 'Heart of Elements'?"
Lin Jianping leaned back: "We can't rule out this possibility."
"Why would they lose their abilities and degenerate into ordinary people?"
"Also, where did the lost abilities go? Did they all disappear? Or were they collected by someone?"
"Finally, and most importantly, how did the murderer do it? How did he take away the power of the 'Heart of Elements'?"
Tian Yang thought for a moment and said, "If it wasn't for the Black Citizens, the only one who could do this would probably be the 'Abyss' class."
"Their abilities are quite strange. When they are at a low level, they can absorb the blood and star essence of the enemy to replenish themselves."
"If it's a high-ranking one, it might actually be able to strip away the enemy's power."
Lin Jianping tapped his fingers on the table and said, "It is indeed possible, but unfortunately there are very few people who can ascend to the 'Abyss' class."
"As far as we know, the only member of the Abyss who possesses Heaven-level combat power is Wuying, a member of the Twelve Branches named Ziang."
"So we have no way of knowing whether a higher-level 'Abyss' can do this."
"But even if it was possible, why did the murderer only target the 'Heart of Elements'? Unless he wanted to confuse people and mislead the investigation."
"or... "
"The power of this class is beneficial to him?"
A moment.
Tianyang remembered something.
"City Lord Lin, do you still remember?"
"During the online meeting before, didn't Bo Xun say that those who devour gods need to devour other gods to restore their own strength?"
"If the God Devourer relies on this method to restore his strength."
"Then, do gods of other classes also need to use some methods to restore themselves to their peak state after awakening?"
Lin Jianping's body trembled, and he grasped the key point in Tianyang's words: "You mean, those 'Elemental Hearts' met with misfortune because the gods of this class awakened?"
Suddenly, Lin Jianping blurted out: "Gao Wen?"
Tianyang was a little surprised but felt it made sense.
Lin Jianping is the lord of Glory Castle, and the headquarters of the Church of the Goddess of Glory is in this fortress.
When Tianyang first met Gawain, there were saints from the Church of Light hunting Gawain down.
If these events are linked together, it is not surprising that Lin Jianping would know about Gawain and that he is the ultimate master of the 'Heart of Elements'.
