Chapter 153: The Way
"Well, don't leave it at that, Alaye, Siv, I'm looking forward to welcoming you to my territory when you return to the forest~"
As he said goodbye to Alaye and Sif, who had already sent a few hundred meters away, Giggs turned around and waved behind him after seeing the nods of the two Moon Elves. With a whistle, the big ostrich, which had been doing nothing on the side, immediately raised its huge head and ran to Giggs's side.
Turning over and riding on the chocobo, Giggs glanced back, and after meeting the eyes of Alaye and Sif, one person and two elves couldn't help laughing, "Uh-huh~ goodbye!"
"Goodbye~~"
After the real goodbye, Giggs flicked the back of the chocobo's head, and the colorful ostrich immediately 'croaked' and chased after the guards who had gone far ahead.
Looking at Giggs's back, the two silver-haired elves sitting on the unicorn glanced at each other and returned to camp in the snow-white, holy unicorn.
"Well~ Sif, why did you say that Giggs thought of it with us?"
"I don't know~"
"I knew you would say that, watch me go back and clean you up~"
Looking at Alaye's beautiful face, Seve nodded lightly under Alaye's puzzled gaze, "Female rascal~"
Due to the brisk pace of the chocobos' two thick thighs, Giggs quickly caught up with the rear of the slowly advancing garrison, with a large number of chocobos acting as the main transport force.
Glancing casually, Giggs was about to cross the baggage team to the middle of the group, but was stopped by a childish voice.
"Hey~ that nasty human, wait a minute, why are you running so fast~"
Riding a chocobo came to a chocobo that not only carried a load but also carried a dwarf little Lori on his back, and slowed down the chocobo's pace, "Change your name, or I'll go~"
"So, nasty lord?"
"Goodbye~"
"Hey~Nasty Adult~"
"Hehe~I hope I won't see you in the future~"
"Eh, eh~ that, big brother?"
"Say, what's the matter?" Giggs, who had already ridden the big ostrich out of a distance of ten meters, heard the voice behind him and directly ordered the chocobo to stop, and only said to the little dwarf girl when the chocobo carrying the little Lori approached.
"This chocobo is so dirty, and there are a lot of things around it, I feel very uncomfortable sitting on it~" Little Lori complained to Giggs with a wink.
"So what do you mean?" said Giggs disapprehantly, this dwarf Lori was actually a giveaway in Giggs's impression, although she looked cute and cute.
"I'm going to sit on this one~" The big ostrich, which was showing off something to the gray-faced chocobo beside him, suddenly stretched his long neck between Giggs and Diana, and looked the dwarf Lori up and down.
Giggs slapped the bird's head from his eyes, ignored the constant call of the big ostrich, looked at the big eyes of the little Lori and said, "This is my mount, I must ride it in my team~"
Biting her fingers, little Lori Diana nodded as if she didn't understand, "Then, big brother, can I sit with you?" Your chocobo feathers are much better than these chocobos~ Moreover, it looks very comfortable and soft. ”
"Then come here~"
After Diana happily staggered on the back of the heavy chocobo and spread her hands, Giggs shook her head helplessly and stretched out her hands.
"Hmm~" Diana leaned her face against Giggs's chest for a while before letting go of the hands that were holding Giggs and sat down in the place where Giggs had vacated, her hands playing with the fluff on the big ostrich's neck. "It's very warm~"
"So, Ferdinand, I'm taking Diana to the middle of the team, if there's anything you can come to me~" Giggs said loudly to the goblin engineer behind him after watching little Lori sit still.
"Then please, Master Giggs, I'm thinking about how to improve my invention now~" Ferdinand, who was sitting on a chocobo and still holding a pen in his hand and kept writing and drawing, looked up at Giggs, and after seeing Diana's happy expression, he said casually to Giggs.
"If you're done with this stage of work, you may be able to discuss it with me, after all, Cinder made such a perfect flying machine with my help, and you can see it when you get to the Spark Leader~"
Giggs smiled, "After all, I also know some basic inscription knowledge~"
"Oh?, then after I solve this problem, I will go to you to discuss it~" Ferdinand's eyes lit up, and the exchange between different ideas was the most likely to collide with sparks of inspiration
"Catapult, is this your research? Using a principle similar to the magic crystal cannon, launching people or objects into the sky, and using parachutes to move a parabola over long distances?"
Giggs frowned and looked at the drawings handed to him by Ferdinand, and couldn't help but analyze, "My first reaction when I looked at your invention was to install your device on Cinder's plane, so that the pilot could successfully escape when his plane had to fall for various reasons." ”
"Perhaps, you used it to successfully escape from Fort Clarion with Diana, but I don't think your current invention is practical~"
Stopping Ferdinand, who was looking angry and trying to say something, Giggs moved the blueprint so that Diana, who was sitting in front of him, could poke her head out to watch his discussion with Ferdinand.
"I know you goblins have unique beliefs about their inventions, but your beliefs are not worth mentioning to me, I want to be usable, cost-effective inventions, not such flashy things. ”
After taking out the fruit he had bought from the dwarven city two days ago from the pocket hanging on the side of the chocobo, and handing one to Diana, Giggs took a big bite and continued.
"Since you're researching the launch system, why don't you use your invention for example, the Magic Crystal Cannon, after overcoming difficulties, the range of the Magic Crystal Cannon is one-fifth, or even one-third of that of the railgun, how powerful is it for a territory. Have you thought about it?"
"My territory has limited resources, and it is impossible for you to waste resources in these places that will not have much effect on the improvement of the territory's strength, so I hope you will indeed listen to what I have to say. “
"You don't need to be obsessed with a certain invention alone, what you have to do is to become a real master in a certain field of research~"
"That's all there is to say~ You should think about it ~ " Seeing Ferdinand, who was still angry, standing in place and thinking, Giggs was not ready to say anything more, and walked forward with Diana.
The team has rested enough, and it's time to set off again.
"Big brother, Uncle Ferdinand, is he okay?" little Lori turned around on the back of the chocobo, looking up at Giggs face to face.
"Ha~ As long as he can figure it out, his research path will be bright, if he can't figure it out, then I can only force him to work for me for nine years according to my wishes. Giggs stretched out his index finger and tapped Diana's forehead, "Diana~"
"Huh?"
"When you return to the Spark Leader, you will start learning the elven language, and then you will have to learn martial arts, management, and so on~"
"Ah, why~"
"Hehe, what do you say you will do as the female lord of Fort Clarion in the future?" (To be continued.) )
