Chapter 348: 'City of Giant Trees' Gaffatron
Little Titan "Thor" had some nothing to do on the Golden Ghost. It doesn't seem to be too much needed on board ... Such a somewhat redundant "sailor".
When this guy just got on the ship, he only thought that the "Ghost Pirates" were just a fledgling rookie pirate group, with a powerful doctor, and there was nothing worth paying attention to.
He thought that the head of the regiment, Raymond, the swordsman of Sequence 5, should be the most powerful master in the regiment.
He thought that he, the giant at the peak of Sequence 4, should at least have the highest force on the ship.
Once, he also had a sense of superior combat effectiveness for this.
But...
It didn't take long for Sol to realize that the combat effectiveness of the guys on this ship was not simple.
Needless to say, Captain Raymond, the bounty of more than 200 million proves his strength.
Although this guy's rank is only Sequence 5, his combat effectiveness is unfathomable, and the sword skills he learned are still on the "Extreme Dao Flow" route with a heavy killing heart.
At least he, a giant who can't comprehend the arcane solution and the "True Qi Crystal", can't take a few moves under that guy's sharp sword.
And the combat effectiveness of the ship's mechanic Colin is beyond doubt, and he has fully proved that he is a super mechanical alchemist in the previous battle of the "Davide Family Ship Island".
Saul thought that apart from these two, he should be able to barely rank third on the ship...
The giants are warlike and like to use force to prove their status and make friends with force.
But after some temptation, he actually found that the remaining few people were not even sure that he could beat any of them!
Anna, the seemingly delicate navigator miss, is actually a super natural devil fruit ability. After the elemental body, she just stood still, and she couldn't hurt her in the slightest.
And the doctor Lulu, who stays in the laboratory all day to conduct biological experiments, has seven columns of exclusive combat elixirs, and the kind of green potion that Monkey Jiji usually is only one of his experiments... Legend has it that with a poke of seven potions, the combat power of the instant reaches the top transcendental!
As for Nicole... She's also a mechanic, right? Everybody knows. She casually wears a high-end combat uniform, and she can abuse any transcendent who is not domineering without the power to fight back.
And the "Flower Bear" chef who looks honest and doesn't leak any breath... It is also an ancient martial arts fighting technique called "martial arts qigong".
Even though Thor has been studying for many years, he thinks that his fighting skills are extremely rich.
But if you really want to fight with this flower bear, you will always be stuck by his "listening energy" and can't exert half of his strength, and he will be beaten both horizontally and vertically...
.......
Originally stuck in Sequence 4 for many years, "Little Titan" Thor himself was a little shaken, wondering if his persistence was worth it, whether he really wanted to give up the power talent of the giant clan to advance the ordinary potion of humans...
But now that he has met the "Ghost Pirates", a guy whose combat effectiveness is very theoretical, he has completely made up his mind, he must break through the bloodline restrictions and advance to high-level giants!
Otherwise, the giants who can't comprehend the domineering and arcane solution are simply waste, no matter how many advanced sequences there are, they are all waste!
With this level of ideological awareness, Thor became more and more active in his work on the ship. He is also getting more and more used to the identity of "sailor", not a titan prince, not a giant wrestler, or an ordinary little sailor.
His daily work is also very simple, in addition to cooperating with Lulu to engage in biological experiments, it is to accompany the fat cat to fish and help beat the sea kings that have been caught.
The appetite of the giant clan is extremely strong, and a big stomach king has been added to the ship, and a sea king can't eat for a few days, and the frequency of fat cat fishing is getting higher and higher, and it is becoming more and more lively.
He also has more opportunities to find this sloth bear who eats and sleeps to learn his fighting skills, even if he is beaten, he is still laughing and happy...
There was a new crew member on board, and Raymond didn't think it was inappropriate. Everyone gradually got along well, and they also felt that it was not bad to have such a strong sailor.
Of course... The only thing that is not satisfied is the monkey Gigi!
Originally, biological experiments and beating fish were its tasks, but now there is a guy who "grabs jobs", which makes Monkey Jiji have a very strong sense of crisis.
There are no idle monkeys on board!
The job bowl was robbed, and the only thing waiting for the "idle monkey" was the kitchen cutting board!
So
From time to time, this "stingy" monkey will grin and provoke Thor, often causing "brawls".
After being injected with the "Titan Elixir", Gigi walked the same brutal line as the giant, and the fighting method was wide open. It is also the only opponent on the ship who makes Thor feel that his strength is "equal" and that he can fight freely.
Because of this, this battle maniac little giant is a giant prince who doesn't care about his face, and he messes with a monkey all day long, living a life without shame...
One person and one monkey, beating the fish, often adding fists and kicks, a vicious fight...
The nose and face of the two sides were bruised and swollen, and then they went to Lulu to heal their wounds.
The days just went by day by day, but it was also lively.
......
On this day, the "Golden Ghost" finally arrived at the Giant's Island "Gafatlon", where the Giant Court is located.
The Heavenly Divine Tree in the center of the royal court with a diameter of several miles was already in view, and the huge trunk that could not be seen as far as the end could be seen when looking up, making people feel a sense of humility standing at the feet of the gods.
Even if Raymond is no stranger to this "world's first giant tree" in the game, it can be seen that when he sees the real thing, he is still very emotional about the miracle of the creator.
The land of giants is known as the "country of Ze", and the open sea routes extend in all directions, and large ships can enter normally. But the closer it got to the royal court, the shallower the channel became, and except for the small wooden boats with a very shallow draft, there was no way to pass the steam iron ships.
If the average person wants to enter the "Gafatlon", he needs to moor the big boat in the deep-water harbor, and then change to a small boat and row dozens of kilometers of winding dense forest channels. After disembarking from the boat, walk through the swamp forest area to finally reach the Giant's Court under the foundation of the giant tree.
"Captain Raymond, big guy, we're almost there!"
Thor thought that none of the Ghost Troupe had ever been to the Giant Country, so he enthusiastically introduced: "That is the royal court of our Giant Kingdom, 'Gafatron'. The entire island of giants is home to the roots of the sacred tree, and these elm forest islands are also branches of the sacred tree... There are still a lot of large monsters in the forest, and there are many poisonous miasma swamps, so we have to be careful..."
He added: "Of course, I know this place well, and everything is left to me." ”
"It's finally here..."
Raymond nodded, looking at the dense forest area that was getting closer and closer, his eyes gradually deepened, and a sense of familiarity arose.
The islands and rivers are hidden under a canopy of broad-leaved elm trees, and the eye is full of life in different shades of green.
This is the land of the jungle and the land of giant trees.
Viewed high enough in the sky, this land of giants resembles an emerald jewel set in the turquoise sea.
Towering giant trees can be seen everywhere here, and hundreds of meters of broad-leaved elm trees shade the sky. The sailing ships of the Giant Clan are made of these huge elms, which are the unique "emerald green treasures" of the Giant Kingdom.
Monsters are hidden in the jungle, and dangers lurk.
There are giant pythons, piranhas, ancient giant crocodiles, and all kinds of poisonous frogs in the water... There are many huge monsters of dinosaurs in the forest, such as Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus rex, plesiosaurus, Spinosaurus... There are also many deadly poisonous insects, poisonous miasma, corrosive swamps...
If you are not familiar with the safety route, and rashly break into the forest, even the top level transcendents will be in danger of their lives.
"Tsk... I don't know if the monster division here is exactly the same as in the game..."
Raymond raised his eyebrows, the time he used to train was vivid.
He is familiar with almost all the "wild monster distribution areas" here, what monsters have high experience in killing, what monsters have high explosive equipment, and what monster collection materials can be sold for a good price...
......
Instead of parking the ship in a deep-water harbor, the "Ghost Regiment" directly activated the land mode of the Iron Toad, jumping through the jungle.
Raymond is very familiar with this forest, not to mention the competent "guide" of Thor, as soon as the two of them combined, they planned a "safe route".
Therefore, they will not strayed into the territory of some powerful magical beasts, nor will they strayed into some dangerous dense forests.
For their "ghost group", this is a safer and more convenient way to travel than changing boats to go deeper.
"Anna, Colin, get ready to go!" The Golden Wraith switches to land mode and prepares to leap forward..."
"Yes, Captain! Hold on tight, big guy, be careful of being bumped and fall..."
"Wow~ Take off!"
"Aha... Our 'Ghost Pirates' are certainly the only pirates who can sail a steam ship to Gafatron. ”
“...”
"Nicole, did you see... The Iron Toad you laughed at at the beginning, isn't it very useful? ”
"Hmph, no matter how easy it is, it can't hide the fact that it's ugly! Speaking of function, my 'eight-legged spider' can actually walk on land..."
"One day, I'll make the Golden Ghost really fly and soar through the sky like a dragon..."
"A winged toad? Uglier well! ”
"Hahaha..."
Everyone stood on the deck, laughing and fighting.
The ship's leap forward brought a howling wind, blowing on everyone's cheeks, smoothing hair, moistening the corners of eyes... outlined a bright smile.
The wind chimes of the evening breeze blowing in the woods in the ears are like heavenly sounds.
At the end of the view, the giant's castle is getting closer and closer, and the sunset is picturesque.
......
"Everyone is so good..."
The steam iron ship suddenly turned into an iron toad, running and jumping on the forest land, and the "little titan" Thor on the side was also a little surprised.
A steam iron ship that can run on land and fly in the sky?
What a genius idea...
At this moment, it seems to touch some soft place in my heart. Thor saw an indescribable glint in the eyes of the Spectre Regiment. It's the persistent pursuit of freedom, dreams, happiness...
The longer we get along, the more like you've found a treasure.
This is an adventure group that always creates "miracles".
......
The "Golden Ghost" just flew through the jungle in a high-profile way, jumping several kilometers at a time, and the journey was extremely efficient.
The steam chimney with billowing white smoke in the mouth of the iron toad, which is hundreds of meters long, is like a ruffian toad, rampant and domineering. It leaped rapidly through the dense forests of the islands, startling a large number of birds.
Because of the detailed route plan, they avoided those powerful magical beast gathering places and made the road unimpeded.
Gradually,
The islands became denser and denser, eventually forming a large land mass.
In order not to attract attention, Raymond and the Iron Toad were hidden in an unnamed small lake a hundred miles away from the royal court "Gafatron".
The "Ghost Regiment" walked to the huge city with a group of eight people and one monkey.
......
The "Land of Giants" is a magical and ancient country, and their legends are spread in mythological stories.
The Giant Court Gafatron is a very spectacular super city, which can be called the magical "City of Giant Trees".
The "Heavenly Sacred Tree" is several miles in diameter, and from a distance, it is a thin brown line connecting heaven and earth.
But when you walk to the foot of this "world's first sacred tree", you will find that it looks like a mountain that cannot be seen from the top, and the brown bark has been petrified, like a mountain rock, covering the sky and the sun.
The heels of the giant trees gradually widened, like a steep hillside gradually becoming gentle, and the diameter of the widest part of the ground was dozens of kilometers, and the city also spread out with the trend, becoming more and more open.
Most of the buildings of the Giants are based on red and white walls, and the black roofs are made of stone and wood. The rows of houses, built on the "mountain", are built layer by layer on the heel of the giant tree, which is not as high as the head, and looks incomparably magnificent and majestic.
Look up and canopy towering to the sky, there is a waterfall from the canopy of unknown heights inclined down, a thick white air, the sun shines, there are colorful waterfalls hanging in the void all year round, like a fairyland.
Green leaves, white clouds, waterfalls, rainbows...
From time to time, huge cranes and pterosaurs swept through the air, leaving a dark shadow on the ground.
The "Ghost Heze Regiment" finally walked outside the gray and white wall at the foot of the city.
They looked up at the colorful city "built on the mountain" not far away, and they were all shocked.
"Little Titan" Thor introduced this majestic city with a proud face, and said: "This is the holy land of our giant clan, the largest city in the world. The city is inhabited by more than a million giants, as well as adventurers from all over the seas... Here is the world's strongest warrior heritage, the oldest relics of civilization, the most free trading market..."
"Wow, it's so beautiful! Is this the Court of the Giants..."
Anna's dream is to be a great adventurer who travels the world. Now she has finally set foot on this fairyland-like magnificent city for the first time, and probably the only time in her life.
It's like turning the page of a whole new civilization, and every glance is a new thing.
The world's only "Heavenly Divine Tree", the ancient giant clan, the mythical totem, the colorful tree city built on the mountain...
Everything was new to her.
In the city, countless tall giants are shuttling, and all kinds of tamed large demonic beasts are also walking leisurely on the street with their masters...
Everything is "big".
The 100-meter-tall boulder city wall, the golden copper nails on the city gate are the size of a person... The tall stone steps, one or two meters high... Shops, restaurants, streets... All of them are ten times the size of ordinary human cities.
Anna's beautiful eyes are full of novelty, and she always feels dizzying.
She exclaimed, "I must record everything about this city in detail in our logbook!" This is definitely the most important part of our 'Ghost Regiment's adventures..."
"Wow... It's such a big tree! ”
Colin on the side looked at the "Sacred Tree" in front of him, and his eyes were full of essence.
He said, "In the past, I only heard that there was such an infinitely tall divine tree in the land of giants, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I feel more and more incredible. It's amazing, why does it grow so tall, even if it's the limit of matter, it's not enough to support such a huge trunk weight..."
He said with some impatience, "Captain, Nicole and I are eager to see how it grows..."
Lulu kept staring at the walking giants on the streets of the city.
"You see... There are so many giants here! ”
The big-headed son looked like an idiot and said excitedly when he saw the sleek girl: "Captain, can I go and collect their biological samples?" ”
The fat cat also smacked his lips, the corners of his lips were a little moist, and he muttered: "I heard that the giant clan has a lot of 'giant recipes' for strength growth, and they are delicious." I also want to visit their restaurant and learn from Chef Giant..."
"Uh-huh!"
Seeing that the big guys were impatient to appreciate the appearance of this magical country, Raymond also nodded with a smile and said, "Let's move freely first, and use the phone bug to contact you if you have something." We'll be here for a while..."
"Good, Captain! Let's go first..."
Everyone laughed and agreed, and immediately like a foal out of the slaughter, they happily jumped and jumped towards the giant's city not far away.
Giggi follows the fat cat, Thor follows Purr, and Colin and Nicole walk with each other affectionately.
In the blink of an eye, Raymond and Anna were left.
"Ouch... It's just the two of us. ”
Anna turned her face to look at Raymond, smiled, and asked, "Oh, my captain, are you going to invite your beautiful navigator to go shopping?" ”
"It's my pleasure."
Raymond nodded happily.
"Then let's go~"
Anna didn't squirm either, and intimately took Raymond's arm in her arms. With an excited smile on her face, she pulled him as she strode toward the city.
Happiness knows no bounds.
Of course, Arno the [God Thorn] who sneaks in the shadows is indispensable, accompanying him all the way.
