Chapter 16 An Archipelago Nestled in the Sky
It was just a blink of an eye, and the sugar taste in their mouths had not completely dissolved, and the three of them came to a strange world. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Looking up, there were countless islands floating in the sky in the sky, and they were connected by chains one by one, locked together to form a net, and the land on which he was stepping seemed to be on the edge of the net. A closer look at the undersides of the islands makes it difficult to tell if there is solid land growing out of the clouds, or if the land is flying into the sky.
What is surprising is that even though it is already 10,000 feet in the air at this time, there are birds flying in the sky from time to time, and they turn over and change directions, looking very happy. And in the depths of the sun, there seem to be birds flying sparsely here.
The three of them appeared in the narrow alley where no one was around, they looked around, and found that the general architectural style here was more inclined to the European Renaissance, Liu Zijin immediately took out a hat from the carry-on space, covered his hair tightly, and said with a smile: "It seems to be a Western fantasy world, we have to deal with the hair first, if the black hair and black eyes in this world represent the devil, we will be unlucky." ”
Yi Shaoguang nodded when she heard this, she also took out the cloak and put it on her body, and combed the bangs on both sides to the back, "How is it?
"No, it was perfect. ”
Seeing that the two of them had finished disguise, Su Yan nodded and said, "Then let's go." ”
The three of them walked out of the narrow alley together, and their vision suddenly widened, and the warm wind came with the sound of footsteps. It seems to be a market, surrounded by shouting merchants and hurried pedestrians.
Liu Zijin roughly confirmed the hair color of the pedestrians, and found that most of the people here have brown hair, and a few people have green, gold, red, black and other hair colors, and his black hair is not abrupt, so he put his mind at ease.
Yi Shaoguang also breathed a sigh of relief, no girl in her youth wants to wear a cloak all the time. At this time, the noise in the market suddenly became louder, and many people raised their heads to look at the sky. Only then did Liu Zijin realize that what he thought was a bird was actually a platinum-haired boy, who was wearing a complex set of equipment, flying crookedly in the sky, and seemed to be about to fall down at any moment.
As he struggled to control his direction, he shouted, "Get out of here! I can't help it!!I'm going to hit you!"
He always relieved himself when he saw that there was a solid stone road in the clearing, and suddenly his heart rose to his throat: "Who will catch me!
Liu Zijin was about to make a move, but saw three figures flash quickly in the sky, and what was completely different from the young man was that they didn't have messy equipment on them, just dark green uniforms of the same standard. With a blue light under their feet, the three of them flew towards the young man who was crumbling in the air, and the young man was very excited to see them coming, and shouted: "Patrol! Come and save me! I can't control it!"
The patrol naturally came for this, they seemed to be familiar with the situation, and at the young man's side, they scattered for a moment, two people each holding two hands, and the other man had his back to the land, and supported the young man's waist with his hand. The young man's figure stabilized suddenly, and the four of them slowly fell from the air to the clearing vacated by the pedestrians.
The boy let out a long sigh at first, and then immediately bent down and thanked, "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do." ”
The man who dragged him down was clearly not satisfied, and he sternly lectured, "John Elron! It's you again! You're a genius who breaks the rules." ”
John rubbed his head and bent over and sneered, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I won't do it again next time." ”
"There will be no next time. If you do it again, don't expect us to come and catch you!"
"Yes!
"Hmph. The patrol warned him with his eyes and flew into the sky again. John took off the equipment, hugged it in his arms, and saw that the crowd of onlookers had not dispersed, and said with a smile: "You guys...... Why are you looking at me?"
A stout uncle in the crowd stood up and asked, "John, you haven't given up on becoming an empty knight?"
John shook his head and looked down at the flying suit he had made, although he didn't know what was wrong, but this time it was much better than the last time, and he had just successfully flown in the air for at least thirty minutes.
"No, I'm not going to give up on being an empty knight!"
"John, we all grew up watching you, and in our hearts you are our child. And I used to be a young man, and at your age, I also wanted to fly into the sky all day long and become a majestic air knight. Unfortunately, I couldn't feel the sea of clouds, so I gave up. John, too, even if you're a toy - no, the gear really makes people fly into the sky. But the Knights of the Sky won't necessarily agree with you. ”
"I know, but I always want to try! because the sky is our dream!"
Everyone shook their heads when they saw his appearance, every stubborn young man with dreams would not be persuaded until he was bruised all over his body without being touched, and the stout uncle sighed: "Yes, John, I hope you can fly into the sky." ”
"Thank you, I'll do my best!"
John bowed and walked out of the crowd with his baby in his arms, checking his gear as he walked, and from time to time he could be heard exclaiming, "Where's this part!?"
After the protagonist leaves, the crowd naturally disperses. Liu Zijin looked at Su Yan, Su Yan shook his head at him, and Yi Shaoguang stuck to his side and asked quietly, "How do the people in the patrol team fly?
"No, I didn't feel the wind. They are supposed to fly freely through something called the sea of clouds. ”
"But this thing, the sea of clouds, obviously not everyone has it. How do they move from island to island?"
Liu Zijin smiled, "Let's go over and take a look." ”
The three of them walked near the chain and found a station-like structure standing right under the chains, and just as they wondered what kind of vehicle could move on the chains, it came with a slight click.
In the distance, I could only see a carriage hanging in the air, but his speed was steady, and it was obvious that there was a force pulling him forward. It was only when I got closer that I found out that there was a thin rope on the top of the carriage, and the top end of the rope was covered with a chain, and the carriage moved slowly with the rope.
"I didn't expect it to be a ropeway. ”
"That rope obviously can't handle the weight of a carriage. ”
"And the islands are not parallel to each other, so it's easy to get down, but it's not so easy to go up. ”
"This is also the credit of Yunhai. ”
"Presumably so. ”
"How, shall we go up and sit?"
"Of course. ”
The three of them boarded the ropeway with the silver coins they had just exchanged for gold in the market, and sat in the carriage with a clear view of the open scenery on both sides. Liu Zijin looked to the left, and the further he went, the more dense the chains became, and in the end all the chains were concentrated on an island, presumably the center of the archipelago. But on the right, there are a lot of chains, but the chains have an end, and there are no islands outside the island, only an endless blue sky.
Yi Shaoguang and Su Yan were staring out the window, exchanging thoughts from time to time. Liu Zijin stared to the right and fell into endless contemplation, he had many questions to solve, but the most important one was obviously, is there a world outside the archipelago?
And this question was quickly answered, and a small black dot appeared in the blue sky in the distance, and then continued to expand, until it completely took shape, and the whole carriage was firmly attracted to it.
It was a huge airship, which looked like a sailboat, except for a large, hot-air balloon-like thing hanging from the sailboat. But the designer obviously didn't want the airship to look so plain, so he carefully carved the hot air balloon and painted it with strange black patterns on the sides. At the end of the pattern, he applied a layer of armor to the hot air balloon, which looked like a red dragon crawling on an airship.
"Dad, what's that?"
The little boy next to him looked at his father, who was obviously very excited, and he held the child into the window and replied, "It's an airship! He narrowed his eyes and made a careful look for a moment, "Son, look at the pattern on the side of his ship, it's the coat of arms of Pfister!"
"Is Pfister the country that is big, big, and our good friends?"
"yes...... But what are Pfisters' people doing with us?"
He muttered under his breath.
Liu Zijin and the three of them all listened to their conversation with their ears pricked up, Yi Shaoguang was obviously a little excited, and she spoke a little urgently: "Did you hear that?" they said...... Airship. ”
"yes, it's an airship. Liu Zijin stared out the window tightly, "It seems that it is also driven by a sea of clouds, you see, there is a blue light tail in the tail." ”
"Oh, I saw it!"
Su Yan suddenly shook her silver hair, her red eyes seemed to see something unusual, she pulled Liu Zijin's cuffs, and took Yi Shaoguang's hand to the corner.
"Something is wrong with that airship. ”
Yi Shaoguang's blue eyes widened slightly, full of surprise and doubt, and she hurriedly asked, "How do you know?" We obviously just arrived, I mean, you obviously haven't seen it before, how do you know that something is wrong?"
"I don't know what the national emblem was originally, but I don't think a country's national emblem will be replaced at will. ”
"So it's not a Pfister airship?"
Su Yan nodded.
Yi Shaoguang turned her head to look at the airship again, and she stared at it for a long time but couldn't find where the so-called alteration was. At this time, Liu Zijin suddenly said, "Or, let's go up and have a look?"
