Chapter 1293: An Unpredictable Path Ahead
Air Knight Academy, in the airfield.
The silence of dawn was broken by the rumbling of engines, and ten biplanes slid out of the hangar one after another in the sunrise and morning light. The slender wings were gilded with a fine gold rim in the soft glow.
"Are you going to bring the prep students with you?" Roland asked, standing next to the Seagull's gate, toward Tilly.
Tilly nodded, "If it goes well, I'll be able to finish the last part of the flight manual in a month, but I don't want the students to waste a month as well." Theory can be taught anywhere, and there may be a chance to test flights when you go to the front - after all, compared to the positions of the First Army, the airfield is already considered a large rear. β
That's right...... It seems that she has not forgotten her identity as the dean, and Roland is a little relieved, "Give the students more opportunities to get started, don't dominate the plane all day long, teaching everyone is the primary purpose." β
Actually, what he wanted to say was, don't go up.
There are many opportunities for revenge, don't rush it.
"Oh?" Tilly glanced at him, "Okay, as long as you give me the special machine you said will be, I promise not to fight the Skyfire with the students." β
Roland was speechless.
Seeing his speechless appearance, Tilly chuckled lightly, and she pulled the scattered hair from her forehead behind her ears, "Don't worry, I know what you're thinking." Why don't you make a deal, and in a month I'll bring out a team of air knights who can fight in real combat, and you'll build a special machine - until then, I promise that I won't go head-to-head with the enemy, how about it?"
It's best not to fight hard in the future - although Roland thinks so, he also understands that war can't always be smooth sailing, and only an army that can win in adversity is qualified to win, so he finally nodded, "Stay safe." β
"Of course, I'm still waiting for the day when you bring back the ashes, brother. Tilly smiled.
For a moment, her smile merged with the morning light in the distance, and it was deeply reflected in Roland's mind.
"Your Majesty, the time has come to take off. The guard reminded.
"Then I'm leaving. Tilly turned and climbed the ladder and slipped through the hatch.
"Hmm......" Roland walked back to the runway, and although he had a farewell banquet last night, he was still a little reluctant. Through the porthole, he saw that many witches were also waving goodbye to him in front of the window.
Wendy, Andrea, Sylvie, Echo, Leaf...... Like the previous expedition to Tachira, they will be on a new battlefield, but this time the situation will be more difficult and the time will be longer.
"Everyone will come back safely," Nightingale whispered, "I have such a hunch. β
Roland nodded, and didn't answer again.
"The runway is clear, ready to take off!"
"Flag, all green!"
"Let's go!"
With a wave of the ground attendant's arm, lightning is the first to take off, followed by Maisie, who has turned into a dinosaur - without navigation and for the first time to a strange land, the two will take on the orientation of the entire fleet.
Roland also noticed that Thunder was holding a pipe and waving goodbye to his daughter in the crowd, his face full of pride.
It was followed by the Seagull.
Compared to those noisy biplanes, it is exceptionally light and agile.
The farewell that erupted in the crowd also reached its climax.
Whether it's the Witch League or the Maleficent, most people's hearts are tied to this plane.
Blown by the magical wind, the Seagull skidded a short distance before leaving the runway and climbing steadily into the air.
Finally, there's the Sky Knight.
Ten biplanes are all the air power of Neverwinter, and six of them are still "trainer aircraft" without weapon systems, but Roland knows that a new batch of airframes in the factory is in full swing assembly, and as long as time passes, these mass-produced artificial birds will definitely be able to deal a heavy blow to the devil and support a safe air defense barrier for the First Army.
One by one, the Skyfire skimmed across the runway, rising at the end of the wall, and vanishing into the skyline in a column.
In order to enable the Sky Knights to quickly enter the battle, Roland ordered the engineering team to build a road in addition to building roads, and by the way, they opened up a take-off and landing field in Chishui City, Eternal Night City, and the neighboring Glowlight City and Thorn Town. They will serve as a springboard connecting the north and south, providing fuel and a place for the transfer aircraft to refuel and settle down β for a biplane with an empty weight of less than a ton, a flat open space is enough for take-off and landing.
When the pilots are skilled enough, the plane that departs from Neverwinter in the early morning can cross the two countries of Grey Keep and Dawn before the sun sets, and reach the territory of the Wolf's Heart, which can definitely be called a god speed in this era. This is also the reason why Roland is so interested in the air force - once it is formed, the human support and offensive efficiency will be increased to an unprecedented level.
Of course, as the first long-distance flight in history, Tilly had plenty of room to spare. According to her plan, the entire team would spend the night in Eternal Night City and then go to Cage Mountain the next morning, so that even if there was an accident, the entire voyage could be completed during the day.
Long after the flight team supporting the front line disappeared, everyone still looked at the northern sky, unwilling to disperse for a long time.
The same is true for Roland.
He looked forward to this force opening up a new situation for the First Army.
......
It's really ...... Fly!
Manfield watched in amazement as the behemoths disappeared into the clouds one by one, and his heart was thrilled.
"Hey, what are you doing there, it's almost our turn to board the ship," shouted someone behind him.
"I, I'll go now. He shook his head vigorously to recover from the shock and turned to run briskly towards the group. Even then, all that echoed in his mind was the roar of the Iron Bird as it rushed past him.
Although Manfold had already fully appreciated the wonders of Neverwinter during the month, his first up-close experience of the Skyfire had brought his emotions to a high point.
It's just that this time, in addition to the simple shock, there are also some other feelings.
For example, rejoicing.
Almost at first sight, he fell in love with the job.
As the resettlement officer Matt said, Manfield successfully passed the conscience audit conducted by the Personnel Department of the Administration Office, and obtained the Wudong resident ID card and a house of his own. It can be said that he did not encounter any obstacles in the early stage of integration, and in a short period of time, he gained a foothold in the new city. Next, whether it is to get a clerical job in the administrative office, or to become a police officer who upholds justice like Sharon, it is a very promising choice.
But after much hesitation, he submitted his application to the Sky Knight Academy.
Even when Manfield was told that qualified air knights would be part of the army, not only subject to stricter scrutiny, but also the possibility of dying in war, he did not change his mind.
Now, he's glad he made the right choice.
Pledge allegiance to the Lord of the Wise, fight against the wicked and brutal, fight to protect the weakβthere's no doubt that there is nothing more honorable than being an Air Knight.
He couldn't wait for that day to come.
......
In addition to Farina, Joe, and Manfold, countless others embarked on this journey north.
They come from different kingdoms and territories, but now they are moving forward with the same goal.
Compared to the first and second battles of divine will, the human world has never been so close.
Their fates are all linked by the battle of the Divine Will.
And they, too, will fight for the fate of humanity.
