When you look up at the sky and see the travelers who are like dragons flying in the air in the wind, do you feel a lot of emotion, envy those people who can hug the clouds and kiss the sky? Envy that they can be free from the shackles of the earth and as free as birds? But if you are one of these travelers, and your mind is shrouded in shadows, the feeling of flying in the air may no longer be dreamy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After the group of four people carried a heavy psychological burden because Ola was in danger, everyone fell silent, with the precedent of Misha Vites's tragic hanging, Ola, who could not speak, almost only had the value of performing cold torture with his life, in short, it was a word "death". This not difficult to predict the result everyone thought of, but no one wanted to mention it.

Akachi sat with his knees folded, his head leaning back on the rattan basket, his eyes fixed on the flames burning in the blowtorch, while his mind was constantly groping for the meaning of death. Yes, he had been an Assassin who had made a living of harvesting life and offering death, and at one point he believed that death was a liberation and a result. But now, Akachi felt more and more that death could be transformed into a black filth that only brought about boring decay and emptiness.

The only sound left in my ears was the sound of the wind and the sound of hot air balloons, but these sounds could not dispel the emptiness in everyone's hearts. But the silence was finally broken, and Iger jumped up excitedly, because Lusman had dumped a whole box of solid fuel when he threw the debris.

For the first time, Iger really got angry with his old friend.

"Ruthman Carey!"

He called his old friend by name, and pointed to his nose and yelled, "Why don't you throw this pigeon away! Do you know what it means to have no fuel? We will be forced to land when we barely fly out of Dstaing! The rattan basket that tramples under our feet will bounce six or seven times on the ground as it lands, and the huge balloon is like a sign to remind the guards to ride after us, and in the absence of transportation, as long as we stay in the control area of the Vitos Federation, we are the bags of the guards!"

"Isn't there any other remedy to make the balloon fly farther?" Lusman snorted.

"Yes!"

Iger wiped his face weakly.

"A few of us all jumped out of the rattan basket so that the balloon could theoretically fly very far. ”

This teasing remark, forced by the situation, made Akachi laugh out loud. Looking at the abnormal reaction of his elven compatriots to the threat of death, Ekor couldn't help but wrinkle his brow, he knew that after a series of blows, everyone's psyche was on the verge of collapse, and he had to find a way to do something to stop the last straw from falling and crushing the camel called Hope.

"Egger?"

Ekor suddenly beckoned, "Is it possible that the only fuel left at the moment will allow this craft to land in the Swamp of No Return to the northeast?"

Egg's gray hair, which was like a bird's nest, trembled slightly, and he replied with a puzzled expression: "You can try, but you can't guarantee success, because to change the course of a hot air balloon you need to find the corresponding air flow in the air, which is not as easy as turning a horse's head." ”

"Then I want you to try it as best you can. ”

Ekor then said to Lusman, "Luthman, I want to deliver one last message to the Nexus, telling them that we are entering the Swamp of No Return. ”

"Surrender to the Swamp of No Return?"

"This swamp is not very peaceful," Russman said, "as far as I know, it has been expanding for hundreds of years, and almost no one can cope with the strange nights of the swamp of no return. ”

"Listen to me, Lussman, we're not trying to cross the Swamp of No Return, you know that there is almost zero record of successfully crossing this shadowy area in history, but my ancestors took refuge there on the way north, the shelter should still be alive, what we have to do is enter the shelter and wait for the rescue of the Hub, I think the new guys from the Hub should be approaching D'Estaing, and this pigeon will fly directly to his master. ”

"I agree with Eko, I've heard of that place, and when there is no other option, the worst route may be a way out. ”

Iger fiddled with the various instruments on the hot air balloon again.

"We can fly the aircraft over the Crown Mountains and into the swamp, if d'Estaing's trackers want to intercept us, they will have to abandon their horses and take the low peak route on the northwest side of the mountain, and the night of no return to the swamp is also a threat to them, if we can find the spot mentioned by Eko, we will be victorious as long as we hold on until night. ”

Egger's words brought the white sparrows to a consensus, and Akachi remained silent on the whole decision until a pigeon flew out of the cage and his eyes were cast into the distance.

That's the direction of Elada, Arakachi guessed. How many years ago, many elves used blood, tears and lives to raise enough money to reach that land, and why did they embark on such a journey except to drag others down?

At this time, Ikachi gently patted Akachi on the shoulder, and he whispered a few words, but Akachi, who was out of the world, did not notice what Akachi was saying, and when he reacted, everyone's attention was attracted to the loud and cheerful Iger - the hot air balloon caught a northeast wind blowing towards the swamp of no return!

Due to the limited fuel, the balloon was almost always slowly descending cautiously, and it was a stroke of luck that it was able to catch the northeast-bound air flow and start flying in the direction of the Crown Mountains. Unfortunately, this good fortune did not last long, as Egg's expression became more and more tense as the fuel ran out, and the crisis caught up with them just as they were about to fly over the Crown Mountains.

The hot air balloon seemed to have completely lost its strength to continue in the air, and the fierce mountain wind pushed it desperately against the mountain wall.

"Untie the sandbag!" shouted Egger as he lay on the edge of the rattan basket, most of his body almost in the air, but as soon as his hands touched the sandbag, the rattan basket suddenly vibrated and flew out in an arc like a piece of paper before everyone had time to exclaim. The lightly loaded hot air balloon flew dangerously over the Crown Mountains and into the realm of the swamp of no return, as if it had finally been added to a fire. All they saw was Egger dancing and hanging from a pine tree on the top of the mountain, and after breaking a few branches, he disappeared into the bushes.

Then, Akachi and his party could no longer care about Egger's situation, as the hot air balloon, which had run out of fuel and lost its controller, began to descend violently, and the violent jolting almost turned everyone's internal organs upside down. At first, Akachi, who saw the turbulence in the air as a free experience, couldn't help but smile bitterly, such an exciting sense of freedom was really overwhelming. In the end, the balloon landed out of control, as Iger had predicted, and the rattan basket bounced six times on the ground before finally letting everyone go.
