Chapter 503: Waikato Town

In fact, the only people who don't know what happened in the early morning are the two official magicians who slept soundly. Halumi and Kaya woke up early in the morning to get ready for their morning work, as did the dwarves and Uzov. Although they did not show up, they also witnessed the whole process from the sidelines.

Of course, the one who is most concerned about the development of the situation is Uzov Gantya, who aims to 'monitor the proximity'. He was also quite surprised and troubled by the fact that the little nobleman suddenly brought a team of hundreds of people here. The purpose of his information is to minimize the damage and not to make it bigger.

Even if a team of guards came in front of him, he didn't think that the team was any threat to the two magicians, and it only increased the casualties.

Just as Uzov was trying to figure out how to solve the problem, the magician stepped in himself, and did it in a way he had never thought of. In the magician's own words: the shooter shoots the horse first, and the thief captures the king first. It's easy to say, but when you think about it seriously, the truth is very deep.

At least for anyone who wanted to challenge this magician, the numerical advantage was meaningless, and the depth of the army was meaningless. As long as you appear in front of him, you must have a desperate awareness. In this way, some commanders who cherish their lives, even nobles, will not be able to appear in front of that magician.

If these people don't even dare to come forward, they only dare to give orders to their subordinates to deal with the magician. It is really doubtful what kind of power the army can exert without anyone commanding it. At that time, the number of people was really just decoration.

Fortunately, this magician has a lazy personality and does not have strong desires. Although they haven't been together for a long time, from the side observation, the other party is just looking for a place to live. Such a person will not be harmed if he does not provoke him.

On the other hand, if he were to be angered, with that sound character, he would have snuffed out all danger before it germinated before things seriously deteriorated. In other words, at that time, even the opportunity to beg for mercy was an extravagant hope.

Uzov's perception is very simple, he is not a young man anymore, and it is impossible to rule it out because the other party is threatening. If this perception is correct, then all the Homo sapiens species in the lost land should be killed.

Besides, there is no such thing as being overly defensive. Because of bad luck and lack of eyesight, it was my fault to provoke someone I couldn't afford to provoke, and I could blame anyone.

Of course, from the standpoint of being a member of the Ikaruga Alliance, he was also exhausted and even in crisis because of the mistakes made by some of his companions who were not long-sighted. You don't have to think about helping your friends, but if you meet more people, you'll still meet some villains who just want to take advantage of the characteristics of the alliance. This bored him as he got older, and this gradually faded out of the first-line adventurer sequence.

In comparison, it is much more comfortable to be around this group of people. Although the members of the team did not accept themselves, they did not stop themselves from walking together. During the journey, they all ate and drank together, and there was no obvious estrangement. There is no scheming in getting along like this, which makes Uzov, who has the purpose of 'spying on this group of people', often feel ashamed.

Leave your thoughts behind. Anyway, today we are going to set off for the town near the port of Colombo, where the most airships are moored. Until then, Uzov still has a lot to prepare, and some people to contact.

At best, the town is suitable for airships, but it doesn't mean that there are airships waiting to carry passengers all the time. Don't ask first, if you let a certain magician feel like a pigeon has been released. Maybe the Tripwood wouldn't be like that, but the former Demon Lord couldn't tell. For the sake of world peace and tranquility, let's make more preparations.

Because of the convenience of the forum, and because someone was a guest on one of the high seats of the Ikaruga Alliance, the World Tree Wadwo, the alliance realized the use of the forum to share the intelligence network very early.

However, the use of intelligence is the use of intelligence, as long as there is a local contact of the alliance, Uzov still likes to visit his door. On the one hand, because the text description of the forum is always inexhaustible, and you can get more information by talking to confirm it in person; On the other hand, by mixing up with familiar faces, you can build a deeper relationship than if you were a member of the alliance, and your network will be built from it.

At the very least, in the process of using ale as a stepping stone with the members of the local alliance, I learned some information that was not available on the forum. In fact, those that are common sense to the locals, but as long as they are not familiar with the local situation, they may not understand.

The thing is, at the end of this winter, if you go to that town at the end of spring, you can see a lot of airships mooring. But no boat owner will be commissioned to cross the Jura Mountains, citing the climate of the mountains.

At this time, the climate in the high mountains is very changeable, very cold, and the wind is quite strong. Some airships that don't raise the limit high enough can be very difficult to control, and even cause accidents that no one wants to happen. Even if the increase limit is sufficient, there are many restrictions on use, including the physical fitness of the occupants, the upper limit of the load, and the price is very expensive.

However, as long as there is no airship and people run in vain, the rest depends on the skill of negotiation. Uzov is quite sure about this. 400

By the time the group arrived in Waikato, the town where the airship was heading, it was already dusk and it was almost time for dinner. As soon as the relevant information was answered, Uzov had already explained it to everyone in the process of moving. Therefore, before arriving, everyone has been mentally prepared, and there may be no way to find an airship that is willing to set sail immediately.

But that's not a big deal in the Waikato. Because of the seasonal factors of airship seaworthiness, many passengers who use airships have become accustomed to waiting here. Therefore, the most developed industry in this town is all kinds of hotels, large and small. From expensive private courtyards to cheap chase shops.

The more savvy businessmen, on the other hand, will take control of their itinerary so that they arrive in Waikato at the right time of year without wasting too much time waiting.

But at the moment, everyone's minds were all attracted by the airships of different images moored on the grassland outside the town, including a certain self-proclaimed science believer.

Before today, although Lin had read the knowledge of airships from some books, he had actually seen only one, that is, the Gothbergton of the Lyon Branch of the Southwest Peninsula Wizards Association.

But the scene in front of me can not be described as an exaggeration of the airship exhibition. There are ones like the Goldstone Bulletin, which uses magic propellers as the main floating power, but there are single masts, double masts, and even three masts. There are also those who use huge air sacs as a means of levitation, so I don't know if there is magic in them in addition to the principle of hot air balloons.

Some of the hulls of propeller-type airships are no different from ordinary boats. When all power is turned off during mooring, there are dry dock-like shelves at the bottom of these airboats for the airship to moor.

There are also some with boxy hulls that can be parked directly on the ground. However, this kind of airship is much smaller, probably considering the load-bearing of the floor, so it cannot be made into a hull with a large bottom area.

The airbag airship has semi-open and closed pods underneath, and there are large and small. And they are characterized by the use of tethered methods, fixed to the ground. Some use rope ladders to get up and down the pods, while others have side ladders.

This may be gas or magic filled in the airbag, and it will be less expensive to re-inflate the airbag when it is ready to be used after it has been completely deflated than if it needs to be replenished in small quantities every day to maintain it. Therefore, airbags airships maintain a semi-floating state.

Compared with the means of floating and the shape of the hull, there are only a few permutations and combinations, and for one of the most important mechanisms of the airship, the means of propulsion are really varied. After all, if there is no way to propulsion, the airship will become a hot air balloon that floats straight up and down with the wind.

There are sideways propellers, barrel types, and magic mechanisms that generate propulsion power. It's more that someone can't see the principle, and it's very obsessively magical-style mechanism construction.

It can be said that each of the airships that can be seen here is unique, and no two are the same, or even similar. However, if you understand the airship industry, it is not difficult to understand such a picture.

Except for the Airship Legion of the Haider Empire, no one would build airships in large quantities. In addition, the airships are customized according to the requirements of the boat owner. Even if the owner himself is the builder and the mechanic during the journey, the shape and design of the airship is very much the owner's 'personality'.

To be honest, even if it weren't for military control, no man would be indifferent when he saw a strange ship, a car, or other large creation. It's like a boy seeing a big pile of toys, wanting to touch everything, wanting to play with everything.

And it was not only Lin alone who had this reaction, but the two big boys among the silverbearded dwarves also had their eyes shining, looking curiously at all the airships moored on the grassland. As for the other women, although they were also curious, they didn't want to take everything they saw home and collect like other big boys.

Uzov Gantia was much calmer. After all, this is the second time I have seen this scene, and I still remember the first time, when he didn't perform better than the current few people.

Uzov steadfastly led the two wagons into the small town of Waikato, where he found an inn associated with the Bandove League. The town is an important air hub, and of course the Pandove League will have a liaison office here, as well as some other affairs, and earn the necessary funds for maintenance.

In fact, most of these liaison offices are not set up at the request of anyone, or who supports them. Most of them are the same as the situation when Uzov was in Storm Bay, because his hometown is here, he is familiar with the local customs, and it is somewhat convenient to do this kind of industry, and he can also provide services related to the members of the alliance who come here, which is a part of mutual assistance and reciprocity.
