Chapter 212: The Island of Barrus that Never Goes Out
It should be said that it is worthy of being a local airboat in the empty realm, and its technical strength is several generations beyond the garbage picked up by the Calido continent. The feeling of being on the airboat of the Cheroe consortium is much better than life on the Gransefa.
There is no shaking that makes people unsteady, the things on the table are not messy, and the ventilation is very good, so it is completely like staying in a high-end hotel.
Of course, not everything is very tidy, the warehouse on the lower level of the airboat is very cluttered, and the upper floor is clean because it is the living quarters for the guests and the crew.
During the voyage, through the porthole, Tsukizakura saw a lot of floating islands, about dozens of large and small.
I have to say that the visual effect of a huge island floating in the air is quite shocking, and the configuration and appearance of each floating island are also different. Some of them are covered with lush forests, while others are full of bare stones, and the most beautiful floating island that Sakura has seen in the past two days is a floating island with three-quarters of the area being a lake.
The floating island is made up of several islands, the glittering water of the lake reflecting the clouds like a giant mirror, and the other islands are like the handle of this mirror - Tsukizakura wonders why the lake doesn't leak out, even though it is at an unknown height of many meters.
Generally speaking, it doesn't take a few strokes to leak, right?
When he went to ask Xie Luo, Xie Luo couldn't say why, but said that the island called August had been like this for many years, and as for the water source, it seemed to be the only waterfall on the island on the mountain.
So where did the waterfall come from?
When Yue Ying asked this question, Xie Luo could only laugh and mess around.
After that, Tsukizakura was thrown back to the room by Sheila with her ears in the eye.
As a merchant, Chero did not trade along the way, and when she arrived at August Island, she simply unloaded the cargo from the airboat, resupplied it, and set off immediately.
"My trip was a bloody loss. Xie Luo said, "I believe in your ability to gamble, don't let me down?"
Sheila behaves very reputable, but in private she is all kinds of chanting about Tsukizakura, telling him not to mess up this task that he is just starting to do.
Yueying's strength Sheila is very assured, but many tasks can not be completed by relying on strength, there must be strong cultivators in the empty realm, Xie Luo does not seem to be the kind of footman who has no strength, and the problems that the locals can't solve for a while must have its tricky places.
Finally, an hour before arriving at the destination that Xie Luo had said, Xie Luo began to explain the specifics of the mission.
"Actually, the original requirements of this task were very simple, just an ordinary bounty task, but the task publisher added a more troublesome clause......" Xie Luo, who has always been smiling and welcoming people, also became embarrassed when he mentioned this very troublesome task. "In addition to going to various floating islands to do transactions, I occasionally take some commissions and intermediaries, this time it is an intermediary type, originally I didn't plan to help, but when it comes to interpersonal relationships...... You should understand, right?"
"The identity of the other party makes it impossible for you to refuse. Sheila said firmly.
"You know very well!" Xie Luo gave two thumbs up, "The other party is the director of a scientific research institute, an old scholar in his seventies, and students all over the world...... I was also one of his students. The teacher speaks, I dare not help?"
"I understand. ”
The two women confirmed each other with each other's eyes, both of them were miserable students who had been tossed by the teacher.
"The specific content of the mission is,Research Institute No. 114 and No. 514 spent almost ten years to build a puppet.,The project started before I graduated.,It ended a few months ago.,And then,Something went wrong when starting the puppet.,I don't know which researcher got the activation spell wrong.,The puppet went out of control and went out of control.,The institute was demolished.,They were lucky.,No one hung up.,But the puppet was left in the ruins of the institute.,The task is to stop the puppet from continuing to wreak havoc.。 Xie Luo took a big sip of tea after finishing the task in one breath.
"That puppet is strong?"
"It's on par with Level 6, it's a 10-year research project, after all. Xie Luo complained: "But the difficulty is not here, the problem is that my teacher has a lot of power, he doesn't want the efforts of other researchers to be wasted like this, and the air rider who is forced to do the task cannot damage the puppet itself...... It's been months! It's not that no other rider has tried! But they all failed because of this request!"
Xie Luo patted her thigh unhappily, "You're level 7, you should have this ability, right?"
In terms of mission requirements, this bounty task is indeed a bit harsh, and the puppet equivalent to level 6 is not a good stubble, not to mention that it is still out of control, and not being able to damage the body is equivalent to saying that you want to release water, but you can release water to the enemy who is level 6 and does not give you face...... It's really troublesome.
"That. Moon Sakura silently asked, "What is a Sky Rider?"
"You don't know? Oh, you're an earthling. Xie Luo quickly explained: "The various floating islands need to rely on airboats to connect with each other, and the people who drive airboats are called airboats, and later they are designated as people who take on various tasks and solve commissions, and many young people aim to get their own airboats and then become airboats - I remember the dream of the little boy named Gulan on Zekodinzan Island was the same." ”
"Although the empty realm is peaceful, even in a crowded place like August Island, there are many monsters, not to mention those floating islands that have not yet been developed, so there is still a market for riding air warriors. ”
"Sounds like the adventurers we have here. Sheila said.
"Riding the airmen is synonymous with adventure and romance, as long as you have the strength. Xie Luo smiled: "I also dreamed back then, but now I think money is more real." ”
"I feel the same way. ”
While chatting, the three of them exchanged some different things on the ground and in the air, and the scene was very harmonious.
In particular, Sheila and Xie Luo are close in age and have a lot of topics in common - although the two were born very different, the topics between women are never too different.
Yueying obediently sat aside and drank tea, not daring to put a fart.
The tea party among the women ended with the announcement of the airboat, "Lord Chero, the island of Barus has arrived. ”
"Oh, it's here. Xie Luo immediately stood up from the couch, "Welcome to Larus Island! my hometown...... Huh?"
Tsukizakura was already standing by the porthole, and he saw a huge island - if August Island was the extent of a county, then this floating island called Barus Island was a city.
It's not just its size, it's the active volcano in the center of the island, and the river of lava that surrounds the island, spitting steam out of the rust-red earth and soaring into the sky.
The color of Auguste Island is as blue as the sky, while Barus Island is boiling red, and just looking at it from the airboat, the moon cherry blossoms feel hot and dry.
"There's a strong heat source in the ground of Barus Island, and it's because of the heat that the lava river keeps flowing. Xie Luo's voice came from the side, "Because of the iron ore production, there are many research institutes that need iron here, and my teacher is the same. Of course, the most famous thing here is the forging technique, which you must not ignore if you want to repair the airboat. ”
Sheila also saw the appearance of Barus Island, she had always had good self-control, and she also showed a very surprised expression, and after recovering for a while, she nodded to Xie Luo and said, "Then you really brought us to a good place." ”
"Businessmen talk about credit!" Xie Luo blinked, "Let's go, I'll take you to meet my teacher!"
