Chapter 17: The Floating Island Whale (Part II)

Fang Yu rushed to the window, his eyes were close to the glass and looked out, the street was quiet, seemingly peaceful and peaceful. But he could see something strange in the silence.

He looked back.

Baggins immediately understood, walked to the door, and gave the doorknob a hard push.

One by one, the silver shuttle-like flying machines were falling off from under the square plover's coat, and as soon as he raised his left hand, they immediately swarmed out like a swarm of bees from behind the open door.

The camera looks through the hallway towards the open window at the end of the hallway.

In the hallway, the inn's handyman servant was walking forward with a laundry tub, and then he saw this group of strange structures whizzing past him.

The poor man was almost stunned, and stood on the spot, and the wooden basin in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.

The silver structure flew out of the window at the end of the hallway, and immediately scattered in all directions, sneaking into the surrounding alleys from under the eaves, under the exhaust flue, and under the windowsill, following the route that Fang Yu had already arranged, to avoid the possible 'sight'.

Fifteen seconds later, a silver construct hovering under the eaves caught the first clockwork fairy to sweep across the narrow sky.

Two seconds later, Fang Plover grabbed another one.

He silently estimated the flight path of the two clockwork elves, let his silver swarm change its course, and flew again counterclockwise along the previous flight path.

This round is even more rewarding.

There were twenty-four clockwork elves in total, and there were at least two battle craftsmen in the vicinity, but there was a good chance that there were three.

Fang Yu then calculated the possible location of the opponent according to the flight path and radius of those clockwork elves, and concluded that the opponent's battle craftsman might be at the exit of several nearby streets.

Once again, he zoomed in on his Clockwork Elf's range of activities, and soon saw the guards standing a few blocks away, and the Artisan Guild in the crowd.

In the quiet room, only the mechanical sound of Fang Ou controlling the glove was left for a while, and everyone in the room looked in this direction, and the goggles obscured half of the young man's face.

After only a moment, Fang Yu lifted the goggles, revealing a pair of dark and calm eyes. He said succinctly, "We've been spotted, and someone is coming this way. ”

"How did they know we were here?" Kita's eyes were sparkling, a little incredible.

"As long as you pay a little attention, it's not difficult to notice," Fang Yu walked quickly to the table and replied, "We left too many clues before, and the premise of safety is based on the fact that Captain Bozuo didn't report us, but we forgot that he also had an assistant by his side, and we actually left traces along the way." ”

Kita was a little uneasy, "So what do we do now?" ”

Fang Yu pulled out a roll of parchment from under his coat and spread it on the table, a map that Ms. Papamo had drawn overnight.

"Don't worry, they should have just found it all the way through clues. But we also have an advantage, at the moment our image is very different from the wanted warrant, those people may not be able to recognize it for a while," Fang Yu took out a red pen from his pocket again, and then looked at everyone and said: "It's just that it is impossible to rely on this to escape, and it will be revealed as soon as we check it, so we have to leave before they arrive." There should be their eyeliner outside, and the goal of unified action is too big, so we'd better go out in batches. ”

He looked at the others.

In addition to Luo Hao, Miss Attila, Parker, and Sky Blue were also absent, and the rest of the room were Pasha, Kita, Alyssa, Big Cat Man, Boatswain, Luo Yu, Tang Xin, and Sylvide's master and servant.

Miss Scholar wears a bow tie, a top hat, short hair and blue eyes, and a boy's outfit.

It's just that under Fang Yuan's gaze, she blushed a little, and she was as shy as a doll with a red face.

With silver hair and silver eyes, and two long, pointed ears, Sylvade is a citizen of the Rotao Wilderness.

Boatswain worker attire, Luo Yu pretended to be a scholar.

In order to cooperate with her young lady, Shesta, although not on the wanted notice, also wears a pair of fluffy cat ears.

Only then did Fang Yu speak: "Sylvid, Sugar Candy, Kita and Miss Shesta, together with Miss Shesta, pretend to be tourists who have come here. ”

"Mr. Red, you're with Bagin Spasha."

"Alyssa with Luo Yu and me."

"We split up and then we joined together. After leaving the hotel, follow the predetermined route and throw off the eyeliner. ”

He leaned over and drew three routes on the drawing with a red pen.

Before they left a hotel and stayed in this place, of course, they had expected the worst to happen.

Baggins and Parker have explored the nearby route countless times before. Two blocks behind the inn, there is an old abandoned river that can be used as an escape route.

The premise, of course, is that the gods arrive at that place without knowing it.

He put down his red pen, "Sugarcandy, you go through the front door, Mr. Baggins, they get out of the laundry, and I'll show you the way with a clockwork goblin." ”

"What happens when you get out?" Luo Yu asked. Even if they leave this place, it will be difficult for them to leave the city, especially if the whole city is under martial law.

"Let's talk about it after we go out," Fang Yu looked inside the house, "Let's go, you don't have to pack up your things, save time." ”

Several people nodded, and after saying goodbye to each other, they pushed the door out one after another.

"Brother, be careful," Tang Xin stopped when she wanted to speak, "Don't be reckless all the time." ”

Sylvid hugged Nini and only glanced at him.

"I'll see you later, Captain." The boatswain's words were concise and to the point.

The big cat man only pressed his paws on the windowsill and stretched out.

It looked back at them, flicked its tail and disappeared out of the window.

People walked out one by one, and Pasha was the last to go out, and he said a little worriedly: "Commander......"

But before he finished speaking, he was dragged away by Baggins outside the door with his collar.

Fang Yu looked back at Alyssa and Luo Yu and said, "Let's wait for them to go out first." ”

Both bowed their heads.

The huge room, after everyone left, seemed to be empty for a while. Fang Yu stood by the window and silently watched the scene transmitted back from the goggles, and the heavily armed guards appeared on the other side of the street.

Outside the hostel, Sylveid, dressed in disguise, walked out of the main entrance of the hostel.

The eyeliner outside looked up at them, but the four girls were far from the target in terms of number and image.

He shook his head, buried his head again, and pretended to be reading a book.

Fang Yu marked the person's location.

At the back of the hotel, Baggins and Pasha were walking into the laundry room.

They paused by the door, waiting for Fang Yu to inform them that the eyeliner of the battle craftsman outside had flown before pushing open the back door and stepping out.

"It's our turn." Fang Yu said at this time, lifting the goggles.

Outside the hostel, the guards had just arrived at the door.

The three of them walked down the hallway, past the handyman servant who was packing his clothes, and then down the stairs. In Fang Yuan's field of vision, the guards swooped through the hall and swooped in this direction.

"Take the cargo aisle." Fang Yu whispered to a few people.

Alyssa and Luo Yu nodded, they had rehearsed the escape route many times, turned around and walked to the other end of the corridor.

It was the kitchen warehouse, but the door was locked. Alyssa stepped forward, pulled out her thief's tool and fiddled with the keyhole, and the lock opened.

She pushed open the door, frowning, the cargo passage was a door on the second floor, where there was a small pulley device that could send things up from below. But the goods should have been delivered once last night, and the mountain of boxes blocked the cargo passage.

"Captain," Alyssa said, turning back and feeling a little uneasy, "the goods have blocked the passage, and it may take ......time to move them out."

"You go and move," Fang Yu replied calmly as he listened to the footsteps getting closer and closer at the bottom of the stairs, "I'll figure it out here." ”

But he actually doesn't have any bottom in his heart.

It was just at this moment that there was a sudden chaos under the hall, something fell to the ground, and then the sound of broken utensils was heard.

"How can there be a cat!?" Someone shouted in shock and anger.

"Catch it!"

"Leave it alone, you shit, go upstairs!"

Mr. Reid? When Fang Yu heard the voice below, a trace of doubt flashed in his heart. And the guards' delay was enough for Alyssa and Luo Yu to drag things away.

"Luo Yu, you go down first," Alyssa said with a long breath.

Luo Yu nodded, cast a spell on himself, jumped forward, and fell lightly.

Alyssa turned around and beckoned to Fang Yuan, "Leader, you go first." ”

Fang Yu did not hesitate, walked over and grabbed the rope of the pulley group, and slid down the rope.

As soon as he landed, he looked up again, and it was easier for Alyssa to come down. Miss Nightingale jumped down, reached out and put her hand on the eaves of the window, and landed safely.

After the three of them left the inn, they didn't look back, only found a gap in the eyeliner search of the opponent's battle craftsman, and then disappeared into the nearby alley.

These hidden alleys are also just right to avoid the eyes that come from overhead.

The route was evaluated by Fang Yuan, and of course he considered various possibilities, and as a combat craftsman, he also knew the tricks of his peers best.

He is highly skilled in the multi-control of the clockwork elves, and naturally knows how to deal with the same methods.

There was no danger along the way, and the three of them came safely to the agreed place.

The others had already arrived here, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they appeared.

"Captain!" Pasha was the first to stand up.

Fang Yu saw the tabby cat in the crowd, and he was a little surprised that the other party's movements were so fast, but he still walked up and thanked him first:

"Mr. Red, thank you just now, if it weren't for you, we would be in trouble."

The big cat man narrowed his eyes, looked at him and asked, "Ed, I won't accept a thank you for no reason. ”

Fang Yu was slightly stunned.

Was it really just luck that there was a mischievous cat in the hall before?

But now was not the time to discuss this, he looked up to the left and right, and saw that the abandoned river channel had long since dried up, leaving only overgrown embankments and silt.

Since it is an old town, no one has renovated this place, and over time, it has become a forgotten place.

The guards cordoned off the block, but they should have forgotten that there was still a road here, which is why they chose to settle here.

However, although he escaped for a while, how to get out of the city is still unknown.

And Miss Attila, who doesn't know what to do right now. He picked up the communication crystal, and then remembered to inform him about the situation here.

It's just that at this time, the crystal suddenly lit up.

The message sent to him was Sky Blue, and the other party directly used a text message:

"Brother Ed, are you there?"

When Fang Yu saw this line of text, he immediately realized that it might not be convenient for him to speak over there, and immediately typed: "Tianlan, something happened, we may have been exposed, are you okay over there?" ”

The text reply quickly appeared on his retina: "Miss Attila and I already know, you got out?" ”

"We're on this side of the old river, as you should know, the predetermined escape route. It's safe for now, but Orenze should have started martial law. ”

"Miss Atira?" Alyssa looked at the communication crystal in his hand and asked.

Fang Yu nodded, but raised his hand to signal everyone not to disturb, because Tianlan's next message came again.

"Brother Ed, don't worry too much, we're about to have eyebrows on our side."

"Got eyebrows?" Fang Yuan's heart was full of surprise, "Miss Attila has found a way out of the city?" ”

Although he knew that Miss Elf was reliable, he would never promise it easily if he was not sure.

But he couldn't imagine how Miss Elf had contacted the local thieves' guild in one day and one night and found a way out of the city.

Especially with martial law in the whole city, which thief guild is so bold as to dare to commit crimes against the wind?

He was puzzled at first, but then he was suspicious, it couldn't be the thieves' guild playing some tricks, wanting to eat black, right?

But as soon as he told him about his doubts, Tianlan immediately replied, "No, no, Brother Ed, you are mistaken, Miss Attila is not looking for any Brotherhood of Thieves." ”

She typed, "We're looking for Miss Atira's compatriots." ”

"Miss Atira's compatriots?" Fang Yu was stunned, Olenze still has the forest elf diaspora?

But he'd never heard of a large-scale migration of forest elves to the outside?

And the next Tianlan's words made him suddenly realize.

It turns out that Orenze is an expatriate without forest elves, but there is indeed an envoy of the forest elves who temporarily live here.

Thirteen years ago, the giant tree Tarn was nearly burned by the Empire's magic weapon, leaving an ugly scar - the Scar of Osiris.

The Orenzes were helpless against the scars left by the Aether-encroaching giant tree, and had to turn to the Guardians of Ameya.

Out of respect for the Giant Tree, the Forest Goddess sent an envoy of Druids to the place ten years ago to repair the Tree's scars.

And this stay is ten years.

Ten years is naturally not much longer when measured by the elves, but in the human world, it is enough to form a fixed settlement.

This is also the origin of the elven district of Orenze.

"The forest elves need to travel between Tarn Harbour and the lower town to repair the giant tree, and the Orenze people have granted them permission to use flying pack beasts to get to the top of the tree," Sky Blue continued, "so there is a pen in the elven district where many giant owls are kept. ”

"Miss Atira's compatriots are willing to let us in and lend us those owls, Brother Ed, and we can take the owls back to the Seven Seas Traveler."

That sounds like a crazy idea.

Flying off in the Giant Owl and back aboard the Seven Seas Traveler sounds easy, but it's the air traffic control system of the entire Port of Orenze that needs to be challenged.

Many years before the birth of the windboat, the natives of Aitaria began to use flying pack beasts, and their history in the sky is perhaps no shorter than that of humans in the other world.

After the wind ships dominated the sky, the air and sea of Aitaria were filled with a large number of busy routes, everything has advantages and disadvantages, and the control of the sky by the Aitarians has also made the cities on the continent face threats from the air.

Especially for an airport city like Orenze.

In this world, where there is a spear, there is a shield, and how sharp the spear is, how strong the shield will often be. In the face of all kinds of wind ships and flying pack beasts in the sky, Orenzer - and indeed any airport - will have a complete control system.

Behind this control system are the air guard force that keeps it operating, the port authority's guard gunboats, the harbor batteries, and a whole set of defenses. There will never be a few people, a few flying beasts, or one; Two windboats can make a mess of a port.

It's just that, in general, such a defense system is against threats from the outside. And this time, it may have to be used on them.

Fang Plover can almost imagine what will happen to the giant owl they are riding in once it lifts into the air.

But I have to say that this plan has a certain feasibility -

He put down the crystal and looked up at the huge shadow that was docked under the canopy of the Tarn, and the dozen or so floating cargo compartments of all sizes suspended behind the giant shadow.

That's exactly the Floating Island Whale that has just entered the port.

……

Ruboyette was looking at the elven girl in front of him with soft eyes, respectfully pressed his hand to his chest, and made a bow unique to the forest elves, "Your Excellency, all ready. ”

Not far away, in the quaint hall, a wooden statue seems to grow naturally, and on the statue, it is the image of the goddess of the forest, Ameya.

Beneath the icon were two wooden lanterns, and the faint light of the fire reflected on Miss Elf's quiet face.

"Excuse me, Mr. Rubeette," replied Attila quietly.

"It is our honor to serve Her Excellency the Holy Maiden and the Goddess." Rubeette replied.

Attila nodded slightly.

"Your Excellency," Rubeette asked after a moment of silence, "I asked the Sacred Forest not long ago when you would return. ”

Attila glanced at the other.

"Soon," she replied, "Mr. Rubeette, if the Sacred Forest asks again, tell them that I will return soon." ”

Rubeette lowered his head, and his long silver-gray hair on his temples hung down with him, and he bowed deeply.

Attila received the salute and only gently looked in the direction of the terrace.

There, above the square surrounded by green trees, the gate to the animal pen is opening.
