Chapter 43: Out of the City, the Dragon's Blood in the Permafrost Zone (2-in-1 Subscription)
"It's not that the people of the Xiulais Continent can't create more floating cities, as far as I know, the power of these floating cities doesn't even come from the core of that world, but the void energy that they developed themselves and has nothing to do with the magic net. Its technology is even higher than that of the Floating City of another world! ”
"However, in order to prevent people who learn mysterious powers from falling into that state of being high above and believing that everything in the world is maintained by strength, and gradually becoming inhumane, the top forces of the Shulais Continent have signed a binding resolution at the top of the morning light, strictly prohibiting the abuse of magic."
"Since then, no new floating city has appeared in the mortal world that has been banned from the information of the floating city."
"Silver dragon chick Agnes. Arnold Silvermoon's backer was one of the forces of the year...... It's been years since I've seen that generous silver dragon, and I wonder if she's ...... She's a rich woman! ”
Macaria couldn't hold back for a moment, and burst out laughing.
"Well said, how did it get to that adult."
Blue smiled, his impression of Agnes was really good, as a figure of the level of the silver dragon princess, her attitude was relatively rare.
"After all, she is a great good person who has helped New Charles City a lot, and occasionally I miss her."
After saying that, Blue also closed her eyes and enjoyed Macaria's massage.
After talking for so long, the carriage finally passed the busiest section of the road and began to accelerate towards the avenue out of town.
Gibró was so big that Blue estimated that he would not be able to finish the formalities of leaving the city until at least the evening.
However, everyone in the car was still immersed in the shock of the floating city, and they were not bored.
They took turns looking at the giant city in the sky from the window, and sighed.
It's like an aircraft carrier in the world in the past, and it doesn't seem like anything on the drawings, but when you see that steel monster like a fortress on the sea, the shock is indescribable.
The Floating City is much larger than an aircraft carrier, so you can imagine how majestic it is.
Of course, the Floating City in Gibro is not just for show-off, but in fact it is also an important military facility and deterrent.
Gibro is an important port terminal and an important naval base, both for commercial and military value.
His jurisdiction does not belong to any one country, but to the royal court composed of dragons, humans, and elves.
For this reason, a floating fortress that "never falls" was erected here to protect the most brilliant star in the southwest of the Central Continent.
Above the Floating City, there are huge portals and many small portals.
In times of war, it is possible to quickly mobilize legion-level troops through small portals.
There are also powerful starships that can also teleport long distances through the air ports and portals above the Floating City, and as one of the forces controlling Gibro, the metal dragon and the five-color dragon will also help.
It has absolutely strong strength, and Gibro is surrounded by mountains on three sides in addition to the port, and the main external avenue is the passage dug out of the mountains by the ancient blue dragon back then.
As long as the passage is closed, then the floating city will have air power.
Unless it is the presence of the gods, it is almost impossible to be captured - of course, this flag that has not been captured is also quite deadly, and it is basically in it to set off the strength of the attacker.
Along the way, luxury hotels, apartments, and even elven war trees and knowledge trees also appear from time to time, making people dizzy.
The road is made of sturdy stone, and the gardening plants on both sides contain common plants of various races, so that outsiders can walk next to the common trees of their own race from time to time, as if they have found a trace of support in a foreign land.
The two Tiefling women in the car were completely immersed in the fantasy of shopping, but unfortunately this was not a simple trip, and there was no time to waste here, otherwise they could have seen the drunken gold fans of the city.
Although it is heavily guarded, Gibró does not check many checkpoints for the convenience of tourists and outsiders, which may also be due to his own self-confidence, so he doesn't care much about some small spies and spies.
It wasn't until the checkpoint before leaving the city that I encountered a relatively strict check.
The identity of Blue and his party was not too disguised, and they directly showed their documents from the western continent, and the guards were obviously not interested in learning about the intelligence of the other continent, and after judging that the documents were real, they were also released.
As soon as he left the city, Blue chose a different path than the people around him—they walked directly to the permafrost to the south.
For busy people, they simply don't have time to pay attention to dead strangers, so the maverick behavior of Blue's party did not attract the attention of others.
Most people just give them a look and don't look away.
Although there was no path, after stepping out of the human eye, Blue and Krishanna regained their dragon form.
Blue had Macaria ride on his back, while Orianna flew with Lux, and their speed increased dramatically.
Because the distance was not very far, they quickly entered the permafrost zone.
The howling cold wind kept blowing, and in the barren tundra, there was no other color except for the white expanse of ice and snow.
Although it is not as comfortable in this environment as the white dragon, the blue dragon will not be cold enough to affect its speed and combat power.
Macaria and Orianna are both Tieflins, and they can't go on like Blue, Chrisanna, and Lux.
So they set out in the early hours of the morning every day, and then rest after the sun goes down.
Blue dressed Makaria in thick clothes to avoid frostbite from her during the flight.
The sun rose behind them every day, and the group marched to the sound of the bleak wind, then stopped to camp before the last rays of sunshine at dusk.
Before going deep into the polar day zone of the permafrost, although the nights were short and the days were long, Macaria still had enough time to rest and keep her head clear.
Oriana, on the other hand, fully embodies the arrogant and gentle characteristics of a French professional - after two days of such a life, she can only rely on Lux to carry her forward.
The scale of the permafrost was far larger than Blue had imagined, and because he didn't want to attract attention, he planned to follow the permafrost all the way to the Yama Forest.
As long as they get to the Yama Forest, they are not far from their destination.
But now it seems that it will take at least ten days to fly through the permafrost zone, and if you take into account the physical conditions of Macaria and Oriana, it may even have to be extended to thirteen to fifteen days.
But there is no other way to do it, but to take it one step at a time.
……
Their peaceful days of travel were shattered on the seventh day of entering the permafrost.
In the white snow, there were many huge footprints.
Blue, Chrisanna, and Lux stopped their tracks and landed quickly on the ground.
After looking around, there was no sign of the enemy ambush.
Macaria wanted to jump off the back of Blue's dragon and observe the footprints on the ground.
It's just that as soon as she stood up, Blue spoke on the side: "In an environment like the permafrost zone, there are such obvious giant footprints and numbers, you don't need to look at it to know that it is a frost giant." ”
Macaria was dressed like a rice dumpling at this time, and after jumping down, how to climb up was a problem, and Blue hurriedly stopped her.
Krisanna also noticed this, and she walked up to Blue's side and asked, "Do you want to kill them?" ”
The footprints on the ground are not very clear anymore, they must have been left a few days ago.
It just so happens that the snow is not heavy these days, so you can still see the approximate size of the footprints.
"Why, killing a hill giant makes you start to despise the frost giant?" Blue's eyes widened, and he growled a little angrily.
Krishanna was speechless, and she couldn't help but reflect secretly.
During this time, relying on Blue and Oriana, she began to get a little carried away.
In the frozen environment, there is no doubt that there are three overlords - the White Dragon, the Silver Dragon, and the Frost Giant.
It's just that these three overlords are only for ordinary demonic beasts, beasts and humanoid creatures, and among the three overlords, the frost giants are better than the white dragon and the silver dragon in terms of size and number.
At least the white dragon before the prime of life and the silver dragon before the adulthood, facing the group of frost giants, have to walk around.
And if you are unfortunate enough to be besieged by the Frost Giants before you reach adulthood, you can only pray that you will find out in advance before the other party joins the siege and escape quickly.
Although Krisanna is physically strong, an adult white dragon has to make a detour when she sees the frost giant troops, let alone a young dragon.
Blue is also annoyed that this sister is a little too proud, and has forgotten the most basic desire to survive in living creatures.
If she goes out to do this on her own in the future, then she can only pray that she can come back alive.
After counting the footprints in the snow, Blue blinked.
There are a total of more than twenty footprints of frost giants, judging from the size of the footprints, more than twenty of them are adult frost giants, and five smaller ones are supposed to be underage frost giants who follow adult frost giants out to learn to hunt.
"With such a number, it doesn't seem like it's going to be a prey for snow elephants and snowmen."
He whispered, looking at Krishanna.
Krishanna wasn't stupid either, and the hatred and knowledge of giants in her blood made her know right away - this was either a white dragon hunt or a silver dragon hunt!
Adult frost giants are five meters tall, and they are much smarter and more ferocious than the mentally retarded mountain giants, and their combat power is even more explosive.
If it is to hunt humanoids such as humans and elves, a single frost giant is enough to cause a fatal disaster to the entire village, and it is impossible to dispatch so many frost giants.
"So what? Whether their target is the white dragon or the silver dragon, what does it matter to us? "Krisanna has also calmed down now.
More than twenty frost giants can knock a country into a muggle, since they are not capable of enemies, then just go around them.
Blue thought for a moment, then looked at the footprints on the ground, and said, "The path they are walking is the same as our destination, let's follow and see first." ”
"You just glared at me, blaming me for being impulsive, and now you say you're going to follow and get yourself in trouble, what do you mean?"
Krishanna had no problem with Blue's proposal, but she read it in dissatisfaction.
Blue looked at her gently and replied calmly: "This is my brother's privilege." ”
“……”
In a white environment, the scales of the blue dragon are very conspicuous, so it is difficult to hide its whereabouts.
Luckily, Blue was in the rear of the Frost Giant.
After three days, I finally met this Frost Giant Brigade.
When they saw that the footprints were becoming clearer, they slowed down and hid in the icebergs and snow gullies around them.
It's just that when I saw the Frost Giant's team, they were already on their way back.
It was the first time Macaria had seen the Frost Giant.
Tall and terrifyingly large, worthy of the title of giant, with ice-blue skin the color of a glacier, long pale white hair and beard.
His face was as angular as a solid rock, and he was wearing only cold iron armor.
The armor was made of small pieces of iron, and was the spoils of war snatched from humans or dwarves.
Other than that, they didn't have any other clothes, and since they were frost giants, they certainly weren't afraid of the freezing wind and low temperatures.
Hiding behind the iceberg, Blue looked at the frost giants walking ahead.
The Frost Giants walking in front were singing the battle song of the Giants loudly, and they held their weapons aloft and waved them vigorously from time to time.
There were huge scars on their bodies, and some of them could even see the bones inside.
Blood freezes in their wounds and becomes the best hemostatic medicine.
However, there was no look of chagrin on the faces of these injured frost giants, but they were very excited.
This is also normal, for the frost giants, the scars left by strong enemies in the hunt are the symbols of their bravery and medals of honor.
What's more...... This almost means that they have the potential to get their hands on the most precious loot!
And this time, their loot was enough to make a name for themselves in the Frost Giant Clan.
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look behind them.
In the middle of the Frost Giants' ranks, six Frost Giants were dragging the corpse of a female white dragon.
Blue and Krisanna also saw the corpse of the white dragon in the distance, and their faces suddenly became ugly.
The corpse, which was nearly fifteen meters long, was dragged around, and the huge barbs of three iron chains were inserted into the wings and back of the white dragon as a tool for dragging.
The crimson blood was still flowing from the wound, dripping on the ice, telling that the white she-dragon had just died.
And there were various wounds on the corpse, including spear penetration, and axe slash marks.
But it was the blunt blow wound to the left of her dragon's head that was deeply dented.
It was a young female white dragon, but it was a little smaller than the young blue dragons like Blue and Krishanna.
This is also because the white dragon is the smallest true dragon of the five-colored dragon, and Krisanna is larger than the red dragon of the same age, compared to the two, although the difference between the young dragon and the juvenile dragon, but it is a little larger than the juvenile dragon.
Behind the female white dragon was a large cage with two white dragons screaming incessantly.
Krisanna couldn't help but whisper, "Really...... Stupidity! ”
