A magic airship floats above a sea of clouds.

After the airship entered the channel of the airflow last night, after a night of flight, it had sailed out of the territory of the Newman family in Bena City, and now such a pale cyan mountain at the foot belonged to the territory of the Collins family, and after a while, you will see the city of Pullos, which is surrounded by two mountain beams.

The wind on the deck is very strong, and several crew members are raising the seventh corner sail on the bow of the ship, the difference between the magic airship and the sea ship is that these corner sails and ball sails control the course of the airship, after entering the channel, unless it encounters extreme weather, the airship will fly very smoothly for several days, during which the crew only needs to make corrections to the course of the airship according to the captain's instructions, so that the airship can sail normally.

All four of Surdak's men were riding a magic airship for the first time, and they were very new to the magic airship. Except for the ogre Gullitham, who was a little afraid of heights and hid in the cabin and refused to come out, the other three climbed onto the top deck of the magic airship, holding on to the railing and looking at the spectacular sea of clouds.

The succubus Aphrodi looked at the dazzling sun in the distant sky and asked Surdak curiously, "Captain, how far is this from the city of Highlandza?" ”

She followed Samira and Andrew and called Surdak the captain.

Surdak pointed directly in front of the airship and replied, "Fly in this direction all the way, it will take at least six days to reach Hailanza." ”

Aphrodite turned her head, her eyes squinted under the black veil, and with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she said, "So far! ”

Samira's hood was lifted by the wind, which blew the hair off her head, and she leaned against the railing of the magic airship, quietly looking through the clouds at the pale green earth, the whole budding deciduous forest, the rolling hills covered with a blanket of tender green grass.

In the province of Bena in early spring, many farms have been leveled out in two distinct colors from those that have not been turned.

The galley vents at the stern of the ship were filled with steam from the galley vents, and the crew and slave traders in the galley were very busy all day, and the trolleys pushed out of the galley were piled up with porridge made of wheat bran, sweet potatoes, and cabbage, and the crew carried the porridge to the shaft on the stern side, and hoisted a pot of porridge down the bilge of the airship.

Surdak couldn't understand how much the kobold slaves in the bilge could eat that would keep the crew and slavers cooking porridge in the kitchen all day.

Originally, Surdak planned to learn from these slave traders about the living habits of kobold slaves, but after asking a few questions one after another, the slave traders still couldn't squeak and whine, only saying that these kobold slaves were very easy to raise, willing to eat anything, and could feed whatever they wanted, and said that these kobold slaves were very lazy, and if they wanted them to work obediently, they had to wave the whip in their hands and whip them.

Surdak offered to see the health of the two hundred kobold slaves in the cabin, and this time the slave trader had no reason to shirk it, so he took the initiative to lead Surdak down the ladder into the bilge.

The two slave traders guarding the bilge bolted the iron door and slowly pushed open the large iron door of the ship's bilge, the slave trader was ready to cover his mouth and nose with the scarf around his neck, Surdak was about to enter the bilge, only to feel a stinking heat wave coming to his face, the strong smell almost smoked Surdak down.

The bottom floor of the airship is divided into ten separate bilges, in the middle is a corridor from the bow to the stern, five bilges on the left and right sides, and now it seems that the bilge and even the corridor are crowded with kobold slaves, these kobold slaves saw the door suddenly being opened, and they were so frightened that they took a few steps back.

Surdak was also stunned by so many kobold slaves huddled together, he didn't expect so many kobold people to be stuffed into the bilge of less than three hundred square meters, no wonder those slave traders actually boiled vegetable porridge all day, the bilge was filled with so many kobold slaves, and the food was indeed a little less.

The slave trader strode into the corridor of the bilge, reached out and grabbed the ear of a kobold sitting in the corridor, savagely dragged the kobold slave to the door, looked at his teeth, picked out his eyes, showed that the kobold was still in good health, and finally explained to Surdak: "Knight Surdak, you see how healthy it is, when you get to the city of Highlandsa, there are so many kobold slaves, you can pick the healthiest ......"

That's what the slave traders said, and they did.

……

After a full week of flying, at noon on the seventh day, the magic airship finally arrived in the territory of the city of Highlandsa.

The oak trees that dotted the mountains had begun to sprout, and the mountains were filled with a layer of green, and the sea of clouds had broken here, and just as they were about to reach the city of Highlandza, the magic airship broke away from the channel of the airflow.

In the field of vision, the mountain city is becoming clearer and clearer, Surdak and Andrew, Samira, and Aphrodi are standing on the bow deck of the ship, the ogre has gradually adapted to the life on the magic airship these days, but he is still reluctant to go to the side of the ship, and has been holding the thickest mast in the middle of the airship, hearing Surdak say that he is about to arrive in the city of Highlandsa, his face gradually shows joy.

Surdak pointed to the mountain city that towered in the middle of the mountain in the distance, and introduced this small mountain city to everyone, the city of Hylanza is much smaller than the city of Vožimala, the buildings in the city are built on the mountain, the buildings are extraordinarily compact, every inch of space in the mountain city has been perfectly utilized, and the bird's-eye view of the city of Hylanza from the sky down, I feel that the city of Hylanza is like a three-dimensional exquisite sculpture.

"Are we going to live in this city in the future?" Aphrodite asked with a look of longing.

Surdak shrugged his shoulders and said, "I may have to go to the barren land of the mountains of Paglos to be the sheriff there, and I won't be staying here for long." ”

"This city is beautiful!" Aphrodite sighed.

Surdak said: "If you want to stay here, I can arrange it for you in advance......

Aphrodite blinked her dark eyes and said with a smile, "I'd better follow you, it's probably safer on your territory." ”

After saying that, she pointed behind her and gestured to Surdak that her wings were broken, and she was a succubus that had lost most of its strength, but there was no expression of frustration on her face.

When he returned to the city of Highlandsa again, an inseparable emotion rose in his heart, and before Surdak could sigh in his heart, a whistle made Surdak wake up from his mixed thoughts.

The airship glided slowly through the air, the crew lowered all the sails on the airship, the magic airship slowly moved forward with the magical power of the ship, the floating device hummed, the huge mast creaked and crunched, and the sails on the mast were tied to the bottom mast by the crew.

The captain docked the magic airship on the tower of the airport dock of Highlanza City, and docked it firmly on the tower terminal, and the crew standing next to the side of the ship threw the huge rope onto the terminal, and the staff of the airport dock used a hook to hang the rope coated with tung oil on the docking pile, and pulled the airship that was gliding forward, and the floating airship successfully docked on the airport dock.

Just across from the tower, a magical airship full of supplies was about to set sail, and the crew of the airship looked curiously, as if to see if there were any friends they knew on the airship.

The captain pulled the magic airship hover slightly higher, and the crew opened the hatch from the bottom of the ship to create a passageway.

A slave trader jumps from a ship onto the tower and talks to the staff on the tower.

At this time, the kobold slaves were strung together by ropes, and walked off the airship one by one, they had not lived a good life on the airship these days, and when they came out of the bilge of the airship, their footsteps were vague, and some kobolds staggered, as if they might fall at any time, and when they heard the whip whistle thrown by the slave traders, their bodies instinctively trembled.

A slaver walked up to Surdak, smiled flatteringly, and said to him, "Knight Surdak, could you also help us send these kobold slaves off the airship, so that you can also choose those strong kobold slaves from among these slaves......

"I'm more than happy to help! But my people don't go into the bilge. Surdak said to the slave traders.

Slaver: "Thank you so much! ”

looked at Andrew and Samira, who were about to jump off the airship, holding Aphrodite's arm, supporting her slender waist with one hand, and jumping directly from the side of the ship, which was about three meters high from the airport terminal platform, and Aphrodite landed firmly on the platform with the veil.

Samira and Andrew jumped right behind Surdak, followed by the ogre Gulitham, who was more than three meters tall and jumped from the airship, sending a slight tremor from the entire terminal platform.

Surdak walked up the spiral staircase of the tower to the ground, and he watched the kobold slaves carefully, and indeed as the slave trader said, these kobold slaves did not have any diseases or health problems other than mental malaise and physical weakness.

The thick brownish-yellow fur on their bodies is because they have not bathed for too long, so the hairs are all glued together, forming pieces of black scabs, like scales covering their bodies, and they emit a foul smell all over their bodies, and everyone who tries to get close to them has to twist their noses, their pupils are a blue-gray, perhaps they have been locked up for too long, their eyes look a little dull, their expressions are numb, and they will only have some reaction when they see the leather whips and iron hooks of the slave traders.

After disembarking, the slave traders applied to the management of the airport dock for a vacant lot, and all kobold slaves were driven to the clearing.

Surdak roughly counted the kobold slaves, and found that the ship actually contained nearly a thousand kobold slaves, and all of them were crammed into ten cabins in the bottom compartment.

The slave trader had promised Surdak that when the airship arrived in the city of Highlandza, Surdak would be able to pick the healthiest kobold among the kobold slaves, so despite the stench of the kobolds, Surdak endured his discomfort and went into the slave herd to select the strongest kobolds.

Surdak thought that the remaining kobold slaves would be sent somewhere else, but he didn't expect that all the kobolds on the ship would actually get off the airship.

The captain and crew of the magic airship did not disembark.

When Surdak disembarked, the captain waved at him and smiled goodbye to him.

When the more than 1,000 kobold slaves had all disembarked, the assistant of the Great Kinsy gave Surdak a handwritten letter from the Great Kinsey, and then boarded the magic airship with several slave traders without looking back.

While Surdak was still reading the letterhead, the magic airship actually flew away from the airport dock at the fastest speed.

The airship did not resupply at the Hylanza Airport Docks, and as the float on the airship was running at full speed, it continued to climb high into the air, and gradually disappeared into the blue sky.

The letter left by the Grand Kinsey to Surdak:

……

'Dear Surdak Knights:

By the time you read this letter, my men had already left the city of Highlandsa and were on their way to their next destination.

I promise you that I will hand over your strongest two hundred kobold slaves, but the selection process may seem a bit cumbersome, so please choose your own this time.

These more than 1,000 kobold slaves will definitely be able to choose the one you want, because the Bena City warehouse is used for other purposes, we have no place to place the remaining kobold slaves, so the remaining kobold slaves are also asked to deal with them on your behalf, you can deal with them however you want, sell or throw them away, in short, I decided to discard all the remaining kobold slaves, if it causes you some unnecessary trouble, please understand.

Of course, the most important thing I want to see is that this kobold is a small gift to join your kobold slave team.

Ferdinand. Sincerely'

……

Looking at the pile of nearly a thousand kobolds gathered in front of him, Surdak found that what was in front of him was a big problem, as a knight of the Hylantha City Guard Battalion, of course he couldn't leave eight hundred kobolds here, and when the time came, it would cause chaos on the side of the airport dock, and it was the Hylansa Guard Battalion that was responsible for the end in the end.

It's just that after all, he is only a knight, and the fief he owns is only a small knight's domain, and it is really a big problem for Surdak to feed these more than a thousand kobold slaves.

Even the slave trader Grand Kinsey failed to sell the kobolds, and Surdak didn't think he could sell them all.

Looking at the dense kobolds in the field, Surdak regretted a little that he had let the slave traders go so easily......

Andrew and Samira stood beside Surdak, and Andrew saw the contents of the letterhead in Surdak's hand, so he asked Surdak:

"Captain, what are we going to do?"

Surdak rubbed his forehead vigorously and instructed Andrew, "You stay here, I'll go to the carriage shop and rent some carriages, and transport them out of the city first." ”

"Oh......"

Andrew agreed.

The ogre standing on the side was once again caught in the crowd of onlookers, but he didn't pay too much attention to it, the ogre was in a state of tension all the time by taking a magic airship, and he didn't have a good meal along the way, and now he touched his shriveled stomach, full of anticipation that Surdak had promised that after arriving in the city of Highlandsa, he would have a beautiful meal at the most famous barbecue restaurant in Highland......

The succubus Aphrodi stood at the door of the airport dock, watching the flow of people coming and going at the airport dock......

She closed her eyes and opened her arms as if to embrace the land.
