040 The Floating City floats above the earth

After the little episode, the business still has to be done.

Now the floating city is about to face the first problem: a shortage of labor.

With today's workforce, it would be too difficult to get the idols that washed into the forest back to where they were "sitting."

This morning, Wang directly prepared all his one-ring spell slots for the human transformation giant techniqueβ€”both the enlarged humans and the lizardmen could get a bonus in strength.

In addition to that, he lent the Ogre Power Gauntlet to a trusted sailor.

From the point of view of trustworthiness, in fact, it is more reliable to worship the lizardman as a dragon god messenger, the problem is that the lizardman has one finger less than a human, and the distribution of the fingers is not the same, the five fingers of the human are on the same side of the palm, and the lizardman has three fingers in the front half of the palm, one in the back half, and the palm is thinner than the human.

On closer inspection, the lizardfolk are less reliable than humans in holding things.

The Ogre Power Gauntlet and the Giant Spell greatly sped up the project, but not much. After all, the two idols are too big, it's hard to imagine what it was like for Liguang to be chased by these two giants with the lizardmen before, and it's already great that the lizardmen didn't have a morale breakdown and turned around and ran.

All day on July 23rd, the lizardmen and humans worked together for a day to cut down the rainforest on the idol's way home and lay half of the rolling wood.

In order to move the idol before the rainforest re-blocked the road, Wang instructed everyone to light a bonfire and work overnight.

The airship was also mobilized, and the winch was used from the air to reduce the weight of the idol.

By ten o'clock in the evening, the first idol had finally been lifted onto the log, and all that remained was to slowly drag it into place.

The work was finally completed on the afternoon of the 24th.

At this time, after a day of sunshine, the rainforest has closed half of the pathway that was opened up yesterday.

Rosalie once suggested that the rainforest should not be burned, but Liguang immediately stood up against it, saying that the rainforest was often burned due to lightning during this season, and each time it recovered quickly, probably because the dust left behind by the burned trees was a nutrient.

In this way, the group tossed until the 26th, and only then did they transport the two idols back to their original positions.

In the process, the sleeping Nini wakes up, and the new Asterisk, which has anchored in the main stream of the Maxunya River, has been robbed three times, asked thirty times if it is for sale, and asked a hundred times if there is any danger ahead, why are you anchored.

On the morning of the 26th, Wang stood in the main control room of the floating city on the third basement floor of the ruins, and put his hand on the crystal ball - he had also been studying the Cyclops technology these days, and he accidentally discovered that he could see the real-time images of the main passages and forks in the floating city and several places on the surface by placing his hand on the crystal ball.

Through the image, Wang saw that all the residents of the floating city had entered the underground area - when the floating city flew up, it could not be called the underground area, it should be called the main cabin of the floating city, and the "ground" should be changed to the "floating city deck area" accordingly.

Through the perspective of the ground, Wang Zai determined that the small dwarf airship that was captured had also left, and there would be no tragedy of crashing into the floating city and destroying people.

After confirming all this, the king gave the order: "Fly! ”

With this command, the earthquake trembled.

Elizabeth stood firmly on Marika's shoulders beside her, and asked worriedly, "Is it okay?" Could it be that it hasn't taken off for so many years, and the floating city is on the ground?

"You see so many plants on the ground, these plants have roots, will it ......?"

Wang: "Don't worry, we've burned almost all the plants on the surface with fire, it shouldn't be because of ......"

Before he could finish speaking, a huge vibration came!

Elizabeth, who was holding Marika, was fine, but Rosalie, who was just about to stand on her own, threw herself straight forward, but fortunately, her sister grabbed her by the hand.

Flint: "It's not going to crash before it's flying, is it?" After all, this thing may be tens of thousands of years old! ”

The era of Garia is divided according to the dynasties, and there will be a long "black box era" between the two epochs that have not left a record.

Historians of Garia do not know how many years ago the First Period was, so the dwarves would say that it was "probably tens of thousands of years old".

Wang: "Don't be afraid, everything is under control!" ”

As if to echo his words, the most violent tremor came! This time, even the king who touched the crystal ball fell directly forward, and everyone in the entire main control room fell!

Then the shaking stopped.

Flint: "Failed to take off?" ”

Wang got up and touched the crystal ball: "Uh...... I just realized that this crystal has no connection to the perspective that can be looked down! Don't be afraid, I still have a backhand. ”

As he spoke, he released the crystal ball and took out the sound transmission stone: "Airship, what does your perspective look like?" ”

The boatswain on duty on the airship said in a trembling voice: "Fly!" ”

Wang: "Something is flying, tell me clearly." ”

"The floating city is flying, and it's constantly dropping slag."

Wang frowned: "Slag? Wait a minute! Master control, check the condition of the main body of the floating city! ”

The crystal ball replied: "The body is not damaged, the counterweight balance is slightly offset, and it is within the design error." ”

The king scratched his head, and at this moment there was another sound transmission stone in his arms.

He found out and saw that it was for the new asterisk left behind group, so he started the call: "What's wrong?" Someone attacked again? ”

"Nope! Just report it, we saw it! ”

Wang: "What do you see?" ”

"Floating City! The Floating City floats above the earth! ”

At the same time, the merchant ship Gamma was sailing on the Masunya River.

Earlier, the Gamma and the merchant ships sailing up the Masonya River had received word that the legendary Salvation Unit's ship, the New Star, had anchored on the main road and did not know what it was doing.

The Gamma's captain increased the number of lookouts and deck sailors in order to prevent trouble, and changed the Gamma's only ballista from a parts state to a standby state.

In order to make these preparations, the captain asked the Gamma to anchor under the two giant statues at the entrance of the river countries, and waited for a day or so, and today he was ready to go deep into the river countries.

If it weren't for the fact that the presence of the rainforest itself had made it difficult for robbers to set up ambushes on both sides of the river, this section of the river would have become a holy place for robbery.

After entering the river countries, the captain himself went up to the stern, ready to deal with the unexpected.

It's just that he didn't expect that this unexpected situation was too unexpected.

"Lancelot's *head!" The captain cursed the worst thing in his life, and it was hard to hear that he would have to go to Lancelot's temple to buy indulgences the next time he landed, "What the fuck is that!" ”

The sailors also looked in the same direction, and no one could answer the captain.

At this time, in the southeast, there was a square man-made object in the sky.

The captain grabbed the first mate next to him and asked, "Did you see that thing?" What's that? ”

First Officer: "Where do I know?" ”

Captain: "Aren't you from the Thorn Islands?" ”

The Thorn Isles are now the second home city of the gnomes, and those who travel from Brinden, the gnomes' true home city, gather on the Thorn Isles, where they exchange knowledge and information, and then embark on another adventure.

As a result, the Thorn Islands have become a gathering place for all kinds of strange stories on the mainland.

Plus the gnomes are like dwarves who like to fiddle with armor and weapons, gnomes like to fiddle with all sorts of wonderful mechanisms. Strange machines can often be seen in the Thorn Islands, many of which can fly.

It is also the place with the most airships in Garia, and you can see the airships built by the gnomes whenever you look up.

That's why the captain of the Gamma said that.

The first mate spread his hands: "Even if I was born in the Thorn Islands, I have never seen this!" This thing should be far away, so it's probably bigger than all the dwarf airships I've seen so far combined! ”

The captain was speechless: "Is it so big?" ”

At this moment, someone on board shouted: "It's a floating city!" Lancelot is on top, this is the Floating City! ”

The term reminded the captain: "Floating City? The floating city in the bard's ballad? ”

In the ballad of the bard, the floating city is generally the residence of the villain.

This may be due to the fact that the existence of the Cyclops Empire in the First Age changed the perception of most humanoids. For the humanoids that already existed at that time, the cyclops must be the worst existence, not only enslaving them, but also pumping their lives without scruples to prolong their lives.

The captain looked at the floating city and suddenly said, "Wait a minute! Now that the floating city is flying, then we should understand what is happening, this is big information, just bringing this information out can be exchanged for money! ”

The first mate said, "Indeed. Didn't there be information that the Salvation Squad's ship was anchored on the main road? They probably know what's going on! I don't know, it has something to do with them! ”

The captain nodded: "Yes! Go find them! ”

On this day, more than a dozen captains who happened to witness the take-off of the merchant ship in the floating city made such a judgment.

The place where the new Star Chaser is now anchored will soon be lively.
