"Coo, coo," these huge, walking flop-like creatures are white-feathered owls, or short-feathered owls. They have pointy ears and large, round eyes that are looking at these people curiously, with their chests puffed out, about a man and a half tall, with a wingspan of more than five meters, and the druids of the forest elves usually regard them as companions.

Azure reached out to touch the big coo, and the latter clumsily shifted his paws back and made a cooing sound, tilting his head to look at the little human girl.

"Okay, I'm almost done with what I'm going to say," Fang Yu also ended his statement and looked at everyone, "That's the plan, do you have anything to add?" ”

Everyone withdrew their gaze from the shadow in mid-air and nodded, which was not difficult to understand.

Miss Naturalist held her big book and whispered, "Brother Ed, we all understand. ”

"Alright, Kita, let's disband first, go and prepare." Fang Ou turned around and saw Miss Atira walking over with a middle-aged elf she didn't know. The elves all have a long lifespan, and this middle-aged elf is at least a few hundred years old.

"Ed, how's the preparation?" Attila asked.

"I'll be waiting for you, Miss Atira." Fang Yu looked at the middle-aged elf with some curiosity, who was always half a step behind Miss Attila, and seemed to have a lot of respect for her.

"Alright," Attila nodded, but didn't mean to introduce the other party to Fang Yuan, "Let's go." ”

……

Fang Yu put his hand on it and climbed onto the saddle behind the giant owl, and the walking velvet ball tilted its head and made a cooing sound. Fang Plover stroked its feathers with his hand, the white-feathered giant owl is a highly intelligent creature, tame and obedient, which is why the elves choose them as companions.

The elven falconer told them the dos and don'ts of flying, and how to control the white-feathered owl. Luckily, their first experience of flying beasts was brought by the Giant Owls, not grumpy creatures like Wyverns or Griffins.

The elven falconer didn't say much, but quickly let go of the reins and said an elven word to them. "He said we could give it a try." Attila said in unison.

Fang Yu gently put his hand on the reins, he actually had some experience in how to control this big bird, but those experiences were all on paper. He looked back at the others, "I'll follow me and Baggins, and Miss Attila later—"

The crowd nodded.

Fang Yu gently grasped the reins, and said in his heart, "Fly, bird." The big coo felt the force coming from the reins, spread its wings and flapped a few times, it made a few small jumps, and then flew violently, circling and flying from among the ancient elven forests.

"Oh my God, Brother Ed, it's really flying! Oops—" He heard an exaggerated azure cry from behind him, and looked back to see that she had almost fallen off the back of the white-feathered owl. But although the process was bumpy, the latter still managed to fly.

The others did the same, and everyone flew quickly, except for Parker, who was a little slower. The elves looked up below, looking at the scene above the canopy.

Fang Yu and his party did not fly directly at first, but first circled above the canopy, waiting for others to join the formation. But even so, it still attracted attention from above the air.

Two wyverns flew down from the Tarn Tree one after the other, leaning in this direction, trying to ask the elves why they were taking to the skies. Fang Yu glanced over there and whispered in the team's communication channel, "Avoid them and speed up." ”

Everyone understood and immediately gave orders to their white-feathered giant owls.

The Giant Owls spread their wings, left the canopy, and began to climb upwards, avoiding the airspace where the two wyverns were, and flying straight for the Giant Tree Tarn from the other direction.

The knight on the wyvern didn't know what the elf was crazy for a while, but he also realized that something might be wrong, and one wyvern turned back towards the port, while the other wyvern swooped straight in this direction.

The knight on the back of the flying dragon took out a metal whistle and used a sharp whistle to warn the elves to stop, but how could Fang Yu and his party stop, instead urging the white-feathered giant owl to fly faster.

The Wyvern finally realized that something was wrong, pulled a flare gun from his saddlebag, and pulled the trigger at the sky. With a bang, a beam of red light rose into the sky and exploded into a dazzling ball of flowers.

At the moment when the ceremonial flowers bloomed, the entire city of Orenze seemed to come to life.

Sky Blue looked up and saw a shadow appear above the crowd, it was the griffons that were pouring out of their nests, spreading their wings as if to cover the sky, flying out from under the canopy of Tarn.

The griffons, under the control of the knight on their backs, glided forward for a short distance, then swooped down in their direction before swooping down in a circle.

To the south of Orenze, a group of Wyvern Knights were also hovering into the air, and from a distance, it looked like a swarm of bats were gathering.

At the same time, two sailboats with the Orenze emblem on their sails sailed out of the harbor and approached in this direction, one after the other.

Although everyone thought that there might be a big scene next, they didn't expect it to be so big. This is just a city on the edge of the kingdom of Noganes, what if it is a city north of Kaulin, on the busy shipping routes around the Sea of Clouds?

It's hard to imagine.

The little girl's mouth opened wide and her mind went blank, and it took a while for her to react, stammering in the team channel to remind everyone, "They, they're down!" ”

"Stay calm," Fang Yu said, "everyone follow me." ”

"Mr. Baggins." He said again.

"Yes."

As for Miss Atila's side, there was no need to be reminded, Fang Yu reached out and patted the white-feathered giant owl's right shoulder, and the latter immediately understood, leaning slightly and leaning to the right.

The griffin knights in mid-air apparently noticed their change of direction as well, and similarly changed direction, swooping down in this direction.

But after Fang Yu turned a corner, his left hand sprinkled something shiny in mid-air. As soon as the objects flew out of his hand, they scattered and stood side by side, forming a huge phalanx in mid-air and flying in the direction of the griffin knight.

The seasoned griffin knights were experienced, and they had already realized that they were constructs when they saw Fang Ou make a move, and they guessed that there might be a rather tricky opponent on the other side - a battle craftsman.

They made a sharp stop in mid-air, trying to disperse to avoid the phalanx flying towards them, but it was still a little late, and the griffons were no match for the Clockwork Elf.

Although the griffin knights had turned back as best they could, they were still chased by the phalanx from behind, and the detonation time set by the phalanx for each fire djinn was three seconds, and after three seconds, a white light appeared in the sky, and in an instant, it was like an extra round of sun.

As early as the sharp whistle sounded over Orenze, many tourists, adventurers and citizens stopped to watch the streets below, but at first people did not realize what was happening, Fang Ou and his party were too small, they only saw the griffin and the iron-feathered pterodactyl rise into the air.

It wasn't until the blinding white light caught everyone's eyes that they realized what was happening.

"Holy!"

"Pirates have arrived!?"

The loudest shouting in the crowd is always the Elector.

However, Fang Yu did not make a heavy hand, and when the fire djinn flew out, the distance between them was very large, and the shock wave generated by the explosion was not enough to cover the griffin knights, but it could only hinder their movement to a certain extent.

However, the distance between the fire djinns also paid off, as the smoke from the explosion obscured a considerable area of the airspace, keeping the griffon knights on the other side.

It will take time for them to regroup and fly over there. At this moment, two port authority windboats came sideways, facing this side from a distance, and a flash of fire flashed in the direction of the ship's side, and a cannonball flew over the head of the square plover.

This is a warning shot.

"They're going to open fire." Paparal's voice screamed through the team channel.

"Parker, relax." The big cat man was tied to the back of the Paparal's saddle, and the wind blew its tail straight back, but the lion paladin's gaze still showed a sense of calmness.

"This makes me relax!" Parker's hair was going to stand on end, but it was blown up by the wind.

Fang Yu also glanced back and replied, "Don't worry about it. ”

At this time, the voice of the ship's attendant reminded everyone: "Ed, the Wyvern Knight has caught up." ”

The Iron Feather Pterodactyl is far inferior to the white-feathered Giant Owl in terms of agility, but with a brute force in straight-line speed and climbing ability, it surpasses the existence of griffins. They were still several miles away from Fang Yuan's group before, but in the blink of an eye, they were already tightly behind.

Moreover, the twelve magic towers in the north and south of Orenze also lit up, and several beams of flame and ice passed not far from everyone, which were the elemental envoys of the Star and Moon Council.

The next round of spells might pass through them.

At this time, the port authority's windboats had just made a second round of firing, probably because of the city of Orenze below, and they had to carefully adjust the firing angle, resulting in a rather long interval between the wheels.

The three shells of the second round of fire flew towards Fang Yu and the others at an angle, and since this time it was no longer a warning, the people on the boat used flowering shells, and with the time-delay fuse of the exploding crystal, the shells exploded at a distance of about fifty meters from everyone.

Luo Yu's eyes were quick, and he chanted a spell to prop up a huge ice crystal shield, but the range of coverage was limited after all, and the shrapnel still hit the white-feathered giant owl in the sky blue below.

The latter was about to cry: "My big goo is bleeding!" ”

"How's that, is it serious?" Fang Yu asked.

"I don't know, but it looks so pathetic."

"Is the flight attitude affected?"

Sky Blue checked, but the white-feathered owl was well-trained, and although it was briefly frightened, it recovered quickly. She shook her head with teary eyes and said, "It doesn't seem like there's ......"

Fang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, it looked like it was just a bruise. But this time it's a bruise, and the next time it won't be necessarily.

He looked up, and a shadow was in plain sight.

It was the floating cargo compartment on the Floating Island Whale, each section was more than 50 meters long, divided into two floors, connected by iron cables, and suspended under a boat-type airbag that was two or three times its size.

There are as many as 20 sections of such floating cargo compartments, divided into two columns, and because there is a gap between each of them, it stretches for up to two or three kilometers in mid-air, and from a distance, it looks like a mechanical floating island.

Fang Plover looked at this scene, took a deep breath, turned his heart sideways, and gently stroked the feathers of the white-feathered giant owl with his hand, "Fly up, big bird." The latter, who was almost psychic, immediately understood what he meant, flapped his wings vigorously, and flew upwards into the floating cargo compartment.

Bargins and Miss Attila followed, one a veteran of the air and sea, and the other more familiar with the white-feathered giant owl than anyone present, and therefore the most steady and fastest flyer.

Others did the same, rising into the shadow of the floating cargo compartment.

At this time, the two windboats on the port authority side immediately fell silent—

The tower below was still lit, but no spells had risen into the air.

Only the wyverns and the knights on their backs were still in hot pursuit, but the Iron Feather Pterodactyls were too cumbersome to fly into the gap between the floating cargo compartments, and could only fly with them on the periphery.

The Griffin Knight on the other side was in the same trouble, and they could only chase Fang Ou and his party on the side of the Wyvern Knight, outside the floating cargo compartment, one left and one right.

But the 20-section floating cargo compartment, two or three kilometers of air distance, will finally fly to the end of the moment.

The huge shadow of the Floating Island Whale was already close in front of him, and the griffin knight and the dragon knight were still trailing left and right, Fang Plover glanced back, still calm, and reached out to pat the white-feathered giant owl on the back.

The Giant Owl immediately sank downward, slipping through the floating cargo compartment, and the white-feathered Giant Owl of Baggins and Miss Attila did the same at the same moment, and the Seven Seas Brigade swooped down under the Floating Island Whale in three directions.

The griffin knight and the wyvern knight in mid-air were slightly stunned, not expecting the other party to change direction temporarily, but compared to the dive ability, the elves' giant owls were still no match for the griffin and wyvern.

The other party's current change of direction is just delaying the time of failure, and even forcing himself into a dead end.

These seasoned knights were quick to react and immediately followed.

But they followed to the bottom of the boat, and suddenly they felt that something was not quite right—

Because on the other side of the huge hull of the Floating Island Whale, there was a small wind boat that was waddling and flying down from that direction, flying in the direction of those giant owls.

The knights on the back of the griffon and the iron-feathered pterodactyl hadn't recognized the ship's identity yet, but there was already a cry of surprise in the harbor of Tarn above.

"Behold, it's the ship!"

"It's behind the Floating Island Whale!"

"It's those wanted criminals!"

The guards stopped by the pier and finally shouted.

Not far from them, a dark-haired young man was standing in that place with a huge suitcase. He had planned to go straight into the city, but the elevator was already blocked, so he had to come back again.

However, when I came back, I had already missed the scene where the guards clashed with Luo Hao, and I only heard people discussing wanted notices and other things, so I was curious, so I kept standing in this place.

However, when he saw the Seven Seas Traveler reappear, the black-haired young man's eyes finally flashed.

He stepped forward and patted one of the guards on the shoulder, "May I ask what exactly you mean by wanted warrant?" ”

The guard looked back at him with a puzzled expression, and asked vigilantly, "Your Excellency?" ”

The black-haired young man pointed to the collar and a coat of arms pinned there, and replied, "As you can see, Mr. Guard, I am a bounty hunter. ”

The guard suddenly realized, pointed in a direction for him, and said, "The wanted notice is there, you can go and see it yourself." ”

The black-haired young man looked back in that direction, his eyes falling on the several wanted notices posted there, and he couldn't help but show that it was indeed so.

Only then did he turn around, put the suitcase in his hand on the ground, and then said to the guard, "Mr. Guard, could you please help me look at my things." ”

"What?" The guards were stunned.

"I'm sorry." The black-haired young man didn't give him a chance to refuse, drew a sword from under his coat, and walked forward. At that moment, the others in front of them seemed to feel an invisible force coming, making them involuntarily get out of the way, and then everyone turned around and looked at the black-haired young man in surprise.

But the latter didn't look at them, and his eyes only fell on Fang Yu and his party under the floating island whale in the distance. He pressed his sword with one hand, jumped forward, and jumped directly into the air in the shocked eyes of everyone.

But the black-haired young man landed lightly on the mast of a windboat in the second-level harbor below, and jumped again, rowing a distance of twenty or thirty meters, like a flea, and jumped to the next ship.

The guards were taken aback.

"It's ......"

"Yes...... Superior! ”

……

By the time the Griffon Knights and Wyvern Knights discovered the Seven Seas Traveler, it was already too late.

After Luo Hao and the three of them got on the ship before, he immediately controlled the Seven Seas Traveler to leave the berth, but he was obviously very smart and did not drive the ship directly out of the port.

The port of Tarn is divided into three floors, and hundreds of large and small wind boats are moored, the largest of which is naturally the floating island whale located in the center of the harbor.

And a small ship like the Seven Seas Traveler, which is only about 20 meters long, is not as big as a floating cargo compartment of the Floating Island Whale, and it is easy to hide under the forest-like mast.

On the contrary, they sailed out of the harbor and lost the cover of other ships, but became more likely to become the target of public criticism. Luo Hao did the same, he immediately asked Miss Tata to collect half a sail after leaving the berth, and then let the Seven Seas Traveler sail between the two huge boat-like ships, and with the help of their cover, he unknowingly came to the rear of the Floating Island Whale.

If it were other sailboats, they would not dare to perform such a bold operation, but for Miss Tata, such a delicate operation is nothing.

Naturally, the port sent a magician and two ships to search for them, but soon the rest of the Seven Seas Brigade made a bigger commotion, and the two windboats had to sail out of the port to support. As a result, no one paid attention to the Seven Seas Traveler's whereabouts.

And until now.

Fang Plover saw the Seven Seas Traveler appear, so he let out a sigh of relief, put down the communication crystal, and let the seated giant owl fly over and land on the deck.

He jumped out of the saddle and patted the big coo-coo's fluffy chest, signaling that it was free to return. After leaving them, the port side should no longer be embarrassed by these big gooooos who have lost their target value, and they will fly back to the elves on their own.

As for the forest elves, it's easy to explain, you just need to push everything on their heads, anyway, the white-feathered giant owl was snatched by them, and they grabbed it with their ability, why can't they use it?

And even if the people of Orenze had doubts in their hearts, they had to choose to believe this statement, after all, it was the druids who they had asked for the sacred forest, not the other way around.

At this time, the others also landed one after another, but only Tianlan looked at his bloodstained big goo and was heartbroken, and wanted to bandage it, but there was obviously no time for it at the moment.

After Miss Atira examined it, she concluded that the latter was fine, and although Sky Blue was not relieved, she had to choose to accept it.

She cried profusely, hugged and hugged the big coo, but finally had to let it go. The white-feathered giant owl felt the emotion of sky blue, and circled twice over the Seven Seas Traveler before leaving.

But after the giant owl flew away, it was clear that the crisis had not been resolved for everyone in the Seven Seas Brigade, and in fact the trouble had just begun.

Luo Hao came out of the deck at this time and asked Fang Yu, "Ed, what should we do next?" ”

Fang Plover raised his head and looked at the Griffon Knights and Wyvern Knights who were rushing towards him, knowing that as soon as they left the shelter of the Floating Island Whale, the Tarn Harbor and Orenze City would immediately open fire.

But if they didn't leave, the steady stream of reinforcements would be enough to drown them, and it would be difficult for them to cope with the knights in front of them.

Those who can become griffin knights are at least level 20 or above, and the average level of dragon knights is higher, plus they sit on fierce mounts, and their combat power is often not as simple as one plus one equals two.

However, Fang Yu quickly made a decision.

He pointed down.

"Ridge Sky Gorge?" Luo Hao asked curiously, just like the edge of the continent in Istania, there is a land ridge below the empty land, and those intricate empty gorges are like a huge labyrinth, not only a paradise for smugglers, but also for pirates to hide here.

Fang Yuan nodded, no matter from any direction, he would be within the range of the Tarn Harbor Fortress, and the anti-aircraft fire of Orenze City below would also make them unable to eat and walk.

But only by sticking to the giant tree Tarn all the way down and avoiding the side facing Orenze City is the firepower blind spot of the entire Tarn Airport. From this direction downwards, they only need to avoid the pursuing knights and sailboats.

"But the Orenzes are not stupid," Luo Hao replied with some surprise, "they were raided by the Imperials once in the Battle of Byrne, and after that, they had already sealed the entrance to the Empty Gorge. ”

"Let's go down first," Fang Yu couldn't care so much: "I still have a way, but I have to go down and see first." ”

"Okay," Luo Hao nodded, not daring to waste time, "You have the final say." ”

Then he went back out of the cabin.

Fang Yu looked at the others: "Don't be idle, go back to your respective posts, even if there is nothing to do, go back to the cabin." There may be wounded later, and the logistics team needs to be prepared. ”

He was rarely serious.

And everyone else bowed their heads lightly.

……
