108 Trek Merchant Ships
I'm very glad I decided to let the goblin take advantage of the prosperity to leave.
Although he had long expected that the additional installation of the Black Huang Cannon would affect the endurance of the Wolf Flame, the severity of its impact was beyond his estimates. The heavy Titan cannon was hoisted by him in the belly of Wolf Flame's plane with a thick iron, and that was where the floating plane was located. The Thai tank gun, which was made entirely of meteoric iron, was not only heavy, but also hindered the overall airflow circulation of the Wolf Flame. According to Qilin's estimates, Wolf Flame's mobility has dropped by at least forty percent, and the degree is only two-thirds of the original, and he even thinks that Wolf Flame can hold on to the sky above the Demon Realm Forest.
Wolf Flame deserved to be the landline of the former ace pilot, but in the end, he did not disappoint, and dragged three or four hundred pounds of heavy artillery to the sky above the Demon Realm Forest.
The Qilin drove the wolf flame around the Demon Realm Forest. Looking down from above, the once dense forest is dead, and there is no green to be seen on the ground below. Countless bare tree trunks towered over the black earth, like unknown tombstones stuck in this dead forest. Occasionally, one or two crows could be seen perched on tree trunks, but they were startled by the wolf flames in the air, and soon croaked and flew away from the forest.
If Garcio really died, such a cemetery would be quite suitable for him, but the problem was that when Kirin drove the wolf flame to patrol from above, there were no corpses of the demons.
Of course, considering the distance between the wolf flame and the ground, it is very likely that he missed it. So Kirin let the wolf flame land on the edge of the forest, and then planned to check it out for himself.
When I opened the hatch, I could smell a strong smell, and when I jumped off the ground from the air, I felt the ground beneath my feet be soft like a swamp. However, there are at least amphibian monsters living in the swamp, and there are no living creatures in the forest of death in front of them.
There is no breath of life in the scenery in front of the Kirin, but the question is, is Garcio in it?
His nose was filled with a thick dead air, and he didn't want to stay here for a second, so he hurried towards the center of the forest with light skills.
In Kirinland's memory, the center of the Demon Forest was an open meadow, and it was there that Garcio died. The miasma emitted by the demon before dying eroded the forest, and it seemed that the closer to the center, the darker the dead trunk became. With this as an indication, the Kirin soon came to the place of memory.
The once lush meadows had been reduced to deep purple dead soil. A poisonous mist ten times thicker than the outside wafted in the clearing. Kirin held his breath and looked around. He searched the clearing. But there are no corpses of demons. However, considering that the surface layer of the ground here has taken on the characteristics of swampy land. It is possible for the corpses of the Devil Earth to sink into the decay. Therefore, Kirin has not given up hope.
He removed a dead branch from the side. Dig it up in the place where the demon died.
About a finger after shaving open a thick layer of humus. A branch on the ground in his hand touched something on hard ground. Kirin excavated the rest of the ground with great force. Dig out that hard thing. Then he took a cool breath.
It was a skull.
Because it has been buried in toxic ground for too long. The muscles on it were all corroded. Only bare skulls remain. The skull has its mouth open in the dirt. Empty eyes looking upward.
Although it is a daunting scene. But Kirin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. No matter what. The Majin Garcio is indeed dead. There is no more reassuring truth.
“...... Huh?"
Suddenly, there was something else in the pit where Kirin had now dug out the skull, and he tried to dig it out for further confirmation.
In his guess, it was supposed to be the spine or arm bone of the demon, but when the skeleton was dug up, Kirin froze in place as if he had been hit on the spot.
What he dug up wasn't a vertebrae, but another skull.
"Could it be ......" An ominous premonition poured out of his heart like venom, and the unicorn struggled to wave the branches and continued to dig down.
One, two, three, four, and when he reached the fifth skull, he gave up his intention to dig it up and stood in place with a pestle.
It can already be confirmed that the bones buried in the empty ground are not the bones of the demon at all!
Garcio guessed that he would come back to confirm, so he buried his innocent dead head here in advance as a mockery and provocation. It's just that I don't know which town was destroyed by the demon who lost his conscience.
Five skulls were placed side by side on the rotten earth, and the slightly open jaws seemed to tell endless grievances, and the Qilin's ears seemed to hear the shrill laughter of the demons, and he only felt that a stream of blood rushed to his head, and he was so ruthless that he could not break the demons into pieces!
But on the other hand, a heavy wave of remorse and sorrow also hit my heart.
“...... I'm sorry if I could have killed that guy sooner......" Kirin snorted.
After a few minutes like this, he slowly collected his thoughts. Before he came to the kingdom of Lavelis, the demons had been rampant in this place for centuries, and they were by no means opponents that could be eliminated by the whim. He plans to go back to the base first to report this to Noyin, and renegotiate with her about eliminating Garcio, use the Sky King Rider, and if necessary, even if he asks Angelina or Hülegü for help, he will definitely bring the damned demon to justice!
In departure
Qiqi carefully buried those innocent people back in the ground, covered them with soil again, and erected a piece of soil here as a tombstone.
"Although no sacrifices can be offered yet...... "According to the etiquette of the Great Wilderness Village, he folded his hands and bowed three times in front of the tombstone.
"But I swear that one day I will cut off Garcio's head and sacrifice you, rest in peace. ”
........................
"The Demon Slayer is gone, and the air thieves have recently been separated, so the world is really getting more and more boring......"
Cruz yawned as he walked down the road to the tarmac, saying things he feared the world wouldn't mess up.
However, since Bodan was patrolling the sky far away from the base at this time, and Captain Noin and Clerk Rachel were also recruited to the military headquarters to deal with important tasks, there was no one in the base who could repair Cruz for the time being.
"Mmmm, this is the feeling of no tiger in the mountains, and the monkey is the overlord, right? The two tigresses are not there, and the sky at the base is much bluer......"
Cruz sighed as he looked up at the sky. However, the sky was gloomy, and there was no blue at all, so Jin Xiangshi could only shake his head in self-deprecation.
"Forget it, it's no fun to compare yourself to a monkey anyway...... Having said that, this kind of sudden vacation is really a headache, and I haven't booked with the girls, how am I going to spend my time next?"
Originally, Cruz was supposed to go on a patrol mission with Bodan today, but due to a sudden failure of the airframe before takeoff, he had to be pushed back to Gnaku for maintenance, so the Jin Xiangshi was automatically idle. Cruz spent the morning wandering around the base, but couldn't find a place to take him in, so he became bored. After considering various options, he decided to go to Gnaku to have a look, and if the mech was repaired, maybe he could hurry up and go to the heavens.
Cruz whistled all the way to the base's tarmac, and looked up at the sky, which was still gloomy.
"Well, it feels like the wings get heavier when you fly......" Cruz frowned, beginning to assess whether his decision was correct or not, but suddenly frowned.
"Huh, that's ......," he saw something strange in the sky.
It seemed to be a swarm of airships, mixed in under the gloomy sky, hazy and unrealistic. Cruz squinted his eyes to see what seemed to be merchant ships on them, but it was strange that they were heading in the direction of the base. The location of the Sky Base is not in any of the lanes on the map, and its near air is also a controlled area, so it is generally rare for merchant ships to appear so close to the base. Cruz speculated that it was due to the weather, so the patrol boat in charge of the guard did not spot them in time.
Seeing the two patrol boats flying from the base to the merchant fleet in a panic, Cruz temporarily put his arms down, but there was still a strange uneasiness in his heart.
"There are fifty or sixty ships, which chamber of commerce does such a large-scale merchant fleet belong to......
Cruz frowned as the merchant fleet in the sky was getting closer and closer. In such a poor air situation, airships often lose their way, and it is not uncommon for lost merchant ships to mistake the base for a target town, but it is still a little unbelievable that such a large merchant fleet can get lost at the same time. But there seems to be no other reason to explain the situation at hand.
Under his watchful eye, two patrol boats flew close to the merchant fleet under the light signal of "emergency stop". In response to the approach of the patrol boats, several merchant ships in front quickly stopped, but their actions caused confusion throughout the merchant fleet, and the merchant ships behind seemed to have no time to brake, so they rushed to avoid from the side.
And their evasion created a new chaos, and as a result, the entire merchant fleet was like a river crashing into a rock, and in an instant it scattered in a mess over the base in an orderly manner, and the scalps of the people on the ground were numb.
"you! What the hell is going on!" Cruz was furious.
There is a problem with the patrol boats, but the guy in command of the merchant fleet is also an idiot! I don't know how much effort it will take to get rid of the simple way that it will take to get it into its current situation.
"Really, I need to play even such a trivial matter......" Cruz grumbled, and ran briskly towards Gnaku. So far, the only way to do this is to dispatch empty horses to maintain order, and then take your time to clean up this mess.
“...... Huh?" Cruz, who was running, suddenly stopped, noticing something unusual.
The merchant ships that were close to the patrol boats were in an unnatural state. They should have been scattered in disorder, but intentionally or unintentionally with the formation of patrol boats facing the center Cruz has seen many times in textbooks, if the merchant ship is replaced by a warship, it is a classic encirclement and annihilation array.
Such a thought caused a chill to pour out of Cruz's back. Looking up at the countless merchant ships scattered over the base, Jin's Shoshi suddenly gasped. (To be continued, if you want to know how to know the future chapters, more,!)
