Chapter 258: The Dragon and the Island

On the ninth day, under Grantfa's full sailing, Grantefa finally saw the location of the red dot.

Not a floating island, but an ordinary island located in the sea.

"Are you sure it's the island?" asked Sheila as she lowered her binoculars.

"Look around there's something around! Can't—it's under the bottom of the sea, right?" Rakam smacked, "If it's under the sea, it's over!"

Grantefa had descended below the clouds, and most of the island's appearance could be seen.

The island wasn't huge, but it wasn't small, and Sheila estimated that it could accommodate a few thousand people, which was enough to build a small city, or a small country.

"Did you see any man-made structures?" asked Sheila and Ferdy.

“…… No. ”

Both of them have good eyesight and concentrate their magic on their eyes, which can see farther than Sheila with a telescope.

As far as I can see, this island is uninhabited, purely natural, and there are no other islands in the vicinity, except for a few reefs or a little bit of land above the sea. According to the location, this is the northeast of the Calido continent, in the middle of the continent and the empty realm, and the existing map does not have this island at all, so it is very suitable for hiding hostages and other shady things.

"There are no enemies. Alice, who was in charge of monitoring, reported, "There are no anomalies. ”

"Hmm...... Well, get closer and see the situation before landing. ”

Sheila was cautious and precautionary, but plans never kept up with the changes.

A violent jolt of Grantefa disrupted all of Sheila's preparations.

"Io!

"The engine is down! Not enough mana!" Io's panicked voice came from the line of the engine room, and just as she could say this, Alice sounded the alarm.

"There are hostile targets approaching, and the speed is very fast. Rarely, her tone fluctuated.

Perhaps confirming Alice's words, Grantefa was hit hard by something, and everyone was immediately smashed to the wall and ceiling, except for Sheila who didn't fly out because she grabbed Tsukizakura, everyone became 108,000 miles away from their position just now.

"Shield!" shouted Sheila in vain, knowing that it was useless, because the attacks had hit the airboat directly, and the shield was useless.

In order to guard against flying monsters in the Sky Realm, the airship is equipped with powerful magic shields and offensive magic tools, and they usually function on their own, but now...... But they were all silent.

A fleshy ...... The tail-like thing flung against the cab window, shattering the glass, and the nearest Lakam screamed, and the flesh lost its breath in a blur. Grantifa, who was already descending, lost its grip and fell straight down uncontrollably.

"Sister Sheila, hold on tight. Tsukizakura helped Sheila to the back of the cab and picked up a rope to hold her in place, "I'll go." ”

Without waiting for Sheila to reply, Tsukizakura rushed out of the cab.

The aisles were a mess, all but the things that had been fixed were scattered all over the place, and they were rolling everywhere because of the constantly shaking airboats. I don't know if the balance device of the airboat is still working, otherwise the airboat capsizes, and even Tsukizakura can't do anything.

"Tsukizakura!"

To Tsukizakura's surprise, the other one who appeared to deal with him was Angeline.

"It's useless for the big man to get seasick, let's go together!"

In fact, as long as you think about it a little, Angeline's appearance is very reasonable, Ferdy himself has a seasickness problem, it is okay when it is stable, and it is normal for him not to be able to come out at the first time when riding an empty boat is so unstable. And Reori is weak, and the fighting style basically belongs to the type of magician, so it's good that she can stand firm in this situation, so don't think about Reori coming out to fight.

The rest of the people are basically unable to look forward to it.

"Let's go. ”

As the two of them rushed to the deck, Angelie was nearly blown down by the oncoming wind, thanks to Tsukizakura for dragging her.

Then, a roaring roar rang out above them.

Glansefa was attacked by a lizard with huge wings and four-legged claws, its breath spewing flames, its pale golden pupils glowing with fierce rage, anyone who targeted it would be immobile, and anyone who heard it would go into a frenzy.

In the historical texts, it is called the dragon.

“…… Do you think it's really a dragon?" said Angeline, a little sluggish.

"Definitely not, I don't have this relative. ”

"You're still kidding at this time!"

Jokes aside, weapons are drawn, and magic is already working. It's the enemy that hits it, and even if the enemy is really a dragon, you have to kill it.

The wings of light unfurled, and Angelie flew into the air, sending a sword aura at the dragon's head.

This tentative attack did not break the defense, but only left a small mark in the dragon's horns, and the dragon's already full anger immediately exploded, and the huge mouth opened and spat out fiery fire.

With a slight spread of her wings, Angeline dodged the flames and flew to the other side, ready to attract the dragon's attention and get it out of the airship.

Hell knows how long Grantsefa will last.

After Angelie slashed two or three more sword qis, the dragon was diverted by the little mosquito, and with a twist of its huge body, a secondary mast broke from the root and fell with the canvas and rope.

Compared to the damage it had done to Grantfa, it was nothing more than a drizzle.

"You lizard—come over to me!" Angeline shouted anxiously, she couldn't let this dragon lie on Grantifa anymore, it might be possible to kill it directly, but it would definitely grab Grantefa and fall down together, and then it would not be a simple destruction that could be described as a death!

"Tsk......" Tsukizakura can't fly, but it can't all depend on Angelie here.

Even if it would break the Grantsif, it would not be completely damaged...... With this in mind, Tsukizakura slashed out a sword.

"Flash!"

A sword that didn't have any fancy broke through the dragon's skin, leaving a huge scar on its right claw, and the dragon was in pain and let go of the Grantsefa in an act that cut off part of the top of the island.

Fortunately, everyone was in the cabin, and the wheelhouse was also at the bottom of the island, so the blow should not have hurt anyone - probably.

The dragon's wings spread again, and Tsukizakura's sword made it feel in danger, this was probably the first time that a creature could hurt it like this, and the dragon had developed a sense of fear.

However, Tsukizakura had already jumped in front of it, and the moon was already pointing straight into the dragon's eye socket.

With a sword, it pierced the pupil, and with another twist, black-red blood gushed out.

The dragon let out the most violent roar since birth, which shook Angeline's eardrums painfully, but Tsukizakura's blow was not a fatal attack, and the moon was too short to destroy the dragon's pupils, not directly into the brain. And this also gave the dragon a chance to fight back.

The greatest threat to a giant creature is not its claws or teeth, but its innate sheer size and the power it brings. The dragon just turned around in pain, and Tsukizakura almost couldn't hold the moon.

"Hmm!" Tsukizakura felt a sense of oppression in her body, and then she broke away from Grantsefa with the dragon. He was taken aback and hurriedly lay on the dragon's head to prevent being thrown out by the dragon.

The dragon realizes that the vicious creature that destroyed its own eyes can't fly, so the next thing to do is simple.

——A 1080° super tumble, accompanied by an emergency turn and a sudden stop, no matter who you are, you will never be able to lie on the dragon's body under such an action!

Tsukizakura couldn't, he was thrown out without any suspense, and there was the vast sea below him.

At this height, even if there was a sea below, he would have fallen and been seriously injured and drowned in the raging waves. A powerful cultivator would never be able to be hostile to the laws of nature.

The dragon used its intact right eye to look at the moon cherry blossoms that were getting farther and farther away, and then flew to the island without looking back, presumably returning to the nest.

Tsukizakura was far away from Grantifa and there was no way to go back, and Grantsefa couldn't protect itself, and it was constantly dropping parts and falling quickly down the island.

"Is it really a trap......

It's over.

When this idea came to Tsukizakura's mind, white wings of light appeared in front of Tsukizakura's eyes.

"Catch me!"

Angeli, the only one who can fly, came to save Tsukizakura.

One face, the two hugged each other.

There's no way, Tsukizakura's whole body is now covered in dragon blood, and if you don't hold it, it will definitely slip off because of the sticky blood.

"It's good to be able to fly. As soon as Tsukizakura sighed, she realized that something was wrong, "What's the matter with you?"

“…… Too heavy...... Angeline blushed, and despite her best efforts to stay high, she still couldn't stop falling like Grantifa.

"Just kidding! I'm a little heavier than you!"

"I haven't flown with anyone!"

“???”

At Angeline's screams, they fell towards the island.

The good news is that from this angle they will fall in the forest of the island and will not drown by falling into the sea.

The bad news is that Grantefa is on the other side and the drop is not in the same area.

If you can survive, you will have to trek half an island to turn.

But first, be able to survive.
