When the Sacred Hammer flew slowly in the sky, the old devil ape Geluglu was holding on to the rope in his hand, trying to suppress the shaking of his muscles while paying attention to the conditions of the rattan and bamboo sticks above his head.
It dared to swear to the entire forest, to each of its ancestors, and to anything it could find. Before that, it never thought that one day it could really fly into the sky!
This strange device called "hot air balloon", this heavy and large thing assembled with blue devil whale skin, vines, wood, and bamboo sticks, actually flew up! Just like the big wolf said, it flew!
It vaguely remembers what else the wolf said, it seems that the hot air balloon is a bit beyond expectations, the final product is actually called an airship, it seems that a fleet can be formed and so on... In short, what the wolf said is always So full of wisdom, full of unpredictable new ideas, the old devil ape has always regarded himself as the wise man of the clan, but after the arrival of the alpha wolf, it no longer dared to mention this title, especially now, riding a hanging After the basket under the balloon flew into the sky, it dared not doubt anything the wolf said.
The cold wind blows into the crew compartment from the gap between the rattan boxes, and the old devil ape heard some structures on the hot air balloon (or airship) creaking, these sounds made it a little creepy, I always felt that this The big thing could be falling apart at any moment, but it tried not to show too much cowardice, because it wasn't alone in the crew compartment: many young apes and a small group of screeching ghouls crowded into this space. In the large rattan box, in front of these young guys, Gelu Gelu felt that he had to maintain enough majesty. It grabbed the rope beside it, and looked at the sky outside through the gap of the rattan box while pretending to be calm: "Don't worry, the wolf has said that it is normal for the hot air balloon to shake!"
The wolf may or may not have said so, who knows, anyway, most of the stupid boys are sifting through the chaff at this time, and no one pays attention to the movements of old Gru Gru at all.
A young demon ape came out from the corner of the rattan box, holding a soft straw mat in his hand. It stuffed the mat behind Gelugeloo to block the cold wind blowing in from the gap of the rattan box. —Although more cold wind still blows in from other gaps, the old demon ape still felt much more comfortable, and it patted the young demon ape on the shoulder with satisfaction: "You are fine."
"Patriarch," the young demon ape nodded respectfully, "When will we be able to land?"
Gelu Gelu thought for a while, and replied: "Listen to the wolf."
And what is the wolf doing at this time
She was sitting in the "captain's cabin" on the upper level of the rattan box, watching the movement outside through the open skylight.
With long silver hair, a pair of spiritual triangular ears, a big fluffy tail, and strange clothes, the wolf's appearance is three parts like a wolf and seven parts like a human. When she first came to the herd, most of her All the monsters in the forest regarded her as an invading human being, and the first to raise doubts and challenges was the leader of the forest wolf—strictly speaking, the former leader. The leader quickly paid the price for his challenge. In fact, it only took three minutes to pay the price. Afterwards, the girl with silver hair and golden eyes became the "leading wolf" of the group of monsters as a matter of course.
Lily was squatting on her own cushion, her face was dirty because she had just helped to solve a small malfunction of the hot air balloon, and her clothes were already torn. As compensation, a thick fur cloak was covered by her Wear it on your body—this fur cloak is a complete piece of forest wolf fur. The head and teeth of the wolf fur are still intact. The huge wolf head has been slightly processed and turned into a hood of the cloak. Lily is very satisfied She wears it on her head carefully, which makes her look like a wild forest hunter: this is the survival law of the wolves on the floating island, and the new leader who rises to the duel wears the loser's fur on his body , which can reflect her supreme status in the community.
However, the "Werewolf" girl's biggest comment on this new dress is that it is quite warm, except for the smell.
After confirming the current altitude and the working status of the hot air balloon, Lily waved to the two jackals at the door: "Let the fire foxes reduce the firepower, the altitude is enough, just keep the current temperature."
The two gnolls at the door immediately made loud nasal sounds, and the two monkey-cheeked guys who were fortunate enough to be selected by the head wolf as "guards" immediately climbed along the cable to the hanging basket on the top floor, and then climbed to the top floor respectively. The two parallel large air bags: under each of the large air bags there is a large basket made of non-flammable "black bracken wood". Several fire foxes lie in these large baskets and stretch their tails into the hot air balloon. Ignite the elemental fire in the mouth of the fire fox—the fire fox is not a powerful guy in the forest, they can only be regarded as a little advanced beast, not even a sub-race, and the only power they have to ignite the elemental fire is also You can only bully ordinary animals that don't know magic at all, but here, they have become the most important source of power for hot air balloons.
The fire foxes were ordered to make a series of grunts, and then gradually reduce their heat generation according to the previously trained coordination method-they completed it smoothly, but in order to let these stupid guys learn how to feed the hot air balloon It took a lot of effort for Lily to heat up stably.
Feeling that the "hot air balloon airship" has regained its stability, Lily nodded with satisfaction, and then looked expectantly at the distant continental border.
She is quite satisfied with the aircraft she designed, and she is even more satisfied with the work efficiency of the sub-races - although those guys are a bit stupid, the speed of building hot air balloons is not slow at all!
Originally, she thought that it would take at least a month for her to leave that desolate ghostly place, but she never expected that the local primitive races all had their own wonderful abilities, some were infinitely powerful, some were born able to communicate with plants, and some could use Flames, and some can create adhesives stronger than steel. With the help of these subraces with natural magical abilities, most of the time-consuming projects of hot air balloons are actually completed in a very short time. As for her, she simply made six airships for use in one go, and she also improved her original design blueprint by the way, upgrading the previously conceived simple balloon into something similar to an airship.
With these things, she felt that her plan to go to that continent was pretty sure.
I heard from the old devil ape that there is a human kingdom on the mainland. If you want to find a landlord, the best choice is of course to go to the human kingdom. Landlords are tricky, and the place where troubles are most likely to happen is usually a pile of people. So if you want to find a landlord, you must find a bunch of people. The husky girl Liu Lili feels that her logic is completely fine.
After reaching a certain height, the airship began to accelerate slowly. Lily looked out of the cabin and saw the wooden blades on both sides of the pod spinning rapidly: these blades were connected by some thick wooden cranks, and the power source was The furbolgs in the pods on the lower floor, those huge men with super strength can continuously shake the shaft all day and night without rest, they are the most ideal workers.
Lily moved around and changed her position so that she could lean comfortably on the seat covered with straw cushions and animal skins. She stretched her limbs and stretched her body without a ladylike waist, while thinking about what to have for her next meal. While looking at the clouds through the skylight directly above, the ropes and brackets used to connect the two large airbags criss-crossed into a grid in her field of vision, which seemed to divide the sky into many fragments, and among these fragments In the meantime, all kinds of grotesque clouds and mists receded slowly like a revolving lantern.
A cloud split from the middle, and a strange white thing got out from behind the cloud.
Lily was already falling asleep at this time, but the moment the strange white thing appeared, she woke up. She blinked and her ears twitched, realizing that it was a huge man-made aircraft.
It was not at the same level as the airship I was on: it was a real big ship, a sophisticated and advanced beautiful airship!
Lily jumped up from her cushion all of a sudden, she looked up at the magical warship that was gradually emerging from the clouds, her golden eyes reflected the latter's streamlined hull and the magnificent stern goddess statue , she didn't know what was going on in her mind, the expression on her face was a little tense for a while, and then relaxed for a while, and the magic warship quickly surpassed the airship with ease, leaving two heat streams in the clouds After the trace, it drew a circular arc and gradually approached the airport city "Lunier" in the southern part of the Ansu mainland.
And at this moment, a violent shaking suddenly came from under Lily's feet.
"What's going on?!" She immediately asked a wolf man who was taking orders nearby, "Is the heat of the two airbags different?"
The gnoll ran out in a panic, and Lily also got out of the room: she was planning to check the status of the airship.
But what she saw was something else:
I saw that the sky in the distance was already dark at some point, and the heavy shadows were still pouring in here. Large groups of fog and shadows were like mud erupting from the abyss along the edge of Ansu Continent The cliff was rolling upwards, and there was a mournful and strange noise in the black clouds. Behind the airship, the floating island that had been left behind was also destroyed by some kind of terrible force. Lily saw with her own eyes that the whole island began to explode. Trembling violently, a huge cloud of black smoke appeared out of thin air from the endless void below the island. When the black smoke rose up, it directly hit the base of the floating island. Accompanied by a distant and terrifying roar, the floating island The ancient volcano in the center slowly smoked, and then a fiery pillar of fire erupted from the top of the mountain.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the entire island was engulfed in flames.
The most terrifying tide of chaos in the Kolo world has begun. (to be continued~^~)
