As the president of the dwarf "Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce" and the owner of the float boat workshop, Ding Bao Belen is quite familiar with New Sarn, after all, this is also the main trading place of their Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce, and he himself comes to it more than a dozen times a year. (Baidu Search 7 Book Network 7qishu.)

So the old dwarf who was driving the Storm Shark didn't think much about it, but according to the previous practice and route, he flew directly to the airship mooring ground of their Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce in New Sarn, who knew that there would be such a big movement at this time.

This is all because the shape of the Storm Shark is too vicious, and there is no obvious sign of the force on the hull, which will inevitably cause tension among the New Sarn City Defenses.

South Bruland, which is struggling to resist the invasion of demons from the other side of the "Dagger Strait", the "Shadow Wetlands" and the "Zom Wasteland", is quite sensitive at this time, and the slightest disturbance will touch the nerves of the South Brulan people, let alone a big guy like the Storm Shark.

There are more air knights in the distance, but fortunately, the "Nightingale-type" miniature reconnaissance float sent out has already made contact with the giant horned owl sky knights surrounded by it, and the two sides have resolved the misunderstanding.

Jia Lan saw that among the Sky Knights, a few horses were divided to report to the Air Knights who were rushing in, and the rest surrounded the Storm Shark to protect them.

Compared to the catamaran Storm Shark, which has two 75-meter-long, 20-meter-wide, 20-meter-high rigid airbags and a wide multi-level bridge platform, the Giant Horned Owl, which is about the size of a war horse, is as inconspicuous as a fly.

This giant horned owl, which lives in the King's Forest in South Bruland, is actually a type of giant owl. It is a very ferocious monster.

Interestingly, this fierce beast with high intelligence will bristle up its feathers whenever it encounters an enemy. It becomes extra fluffy, as it makes it look larger, which is a deterrent to intimidate enemies.

But the question is, while this ability is effective for those animals in nature, who would be frightened by a chubby ball feather duster with big round watery eyes?

The cutest thing is. When the giant horned owl "scares" enemies on the ground, it will also spread its wings and have two fat claws. Clumsy alternate beating, the head stretching out and making a strange cry of "Wow~Ha~Ha~Ha!", it sounds like someone is giggling, to those giant horned owls. This appearance may seem "fierce and vicious". But for humans...... Is there a wood that is cute?

As one of the very few flying monsters that can carry people, have a "docile temperament", and are willing to get close to humans, the Giant Horned Owl Sky Knight can be regarded as a specialty of New Sarn.

At the top of the towering buildings of this city of a thousand towers, there are a number of strange "little houses" specially prepared for the giant horned owls, which attract the families of the great horned owls in the king's forest to settle here.

According to incomplete statistics, the total number of wild giant horned owls living in the "rocky forest" of New Sarn exceeds thousands!

Although only a very small percentage of them are willing to become the mounts of the Sky Knights. But the Giant Horned Owls, who have lived in this tower city for generations, have followed the tower dwellers who often give them food. A good coexistence relationship has been formed.

Far from attacking the inhabitants of New Sann, these ferocious birds will even attack the city when a foreign enemy invades the city, even the wild Giant Horned Owl will actively attack the enemy in order to protect their common home.

The vast majority of the Giant Horned Owl mounts belonging to the New Sarn City Defense Army's "Tower Owl" Sky Knights are "outcasts" of the wild Giant Horned Owl family.

Each pair of giant horned owl couples will lay 3~5 eggs every year, but only 1~2 young owls can hatch, and in the end they can survive and be raised by the giant horned owl couple, but there is only one young owl at most, and it may not even be able to raise a descendant for several years, and the vast majority of giant horned owl chicks have died in the process of growing up.

This is mainly related to the brooding habits of the Giant Horned Owl, when there are more than one chick in a litter, the Giant Horned Owl couple will only provide enough food for the offspring, which prompts the young chicks to have to compete with their siblings for survival before they even open their eyes.

In order to compete for the few foods, these young Horned Owls instinctively squeeze their siblings out of the nest in order to monopolize the food brought back by their parents, resulting in a small population of Giant Horned Owls.

If you are in the wild and are accustomed to building their nests on large trees or cliffs, the only fate of the young falling from the nest is to fall into the flesh.

However, in New Sane, the city of a thousand towers, there is an ingenious and hidden "slide" built under each artificial nest, and every time the breeding season of the giant horned owl arrives, a special person will install a cloth bag sewn from linen at the end of the slide.

When the weak giant horned owl chicks are squeezed out of the nest by their siblings and eliminated, they will roll down this protective chute into a hidden "abandoned baby bag", and then be quietly sent to a special "giant horned owl orphanage" for artificial care.

Although compared with those giant horned owls who win in the natural laws of survival of the fittest, these eliminated young owls will always have congenital deficiencies of one kind or another, and both their combat effectiveness and flight ability are slightly worse.

But for the "Tower Owl" Sky Knights, it is already a very rare thing to be able to have a flying mount, and there will be so many picks there.

Even if the adopted giant horned owl abandoned babies have various congenital deficiencies and cannot become manned air riders, as long as they can survive, they will be well cared for and abundantly fed, and when they reach adulthood, the next generation they will raise will become the object of domestication.

The only problem is that the "self-rewilding rate" of the Giant Horned Owl is very high, and even the Giant Horned Owl raised in captivity has a high chance of returning to the wild after it has the ability to hunt, rather than staying to receive handouts and feeding from humans.

And those who are willing to stay, even if they have become domesticated objects, but their offspring, but still follow the ancient laws of nature, the young that was raised by the giant horned owl couple will eventually leave their parents and return to nature, only those eliminated chicks will become the next generation of mounts of the "Tower Owl" Sky Knights.

For one reason or another, even though the Tower Owl Knights raise a large number of Giant Horned Owl chicks every year, the number of Knights serving in the Sky Knights is always small, only a few hundred.

Even so, the "Tower Owl" of New Sarn can be regarded as a very famous air knight order in the Star Continent, after all, most of the city-states are not even ordinary knights, let alone the air knights.

This is also the reason why New Sarn, although not the capital of South Bruland, has an "intercontinental status" between the continents, but surpasses the capital of South Bruland, "City of Wart".

Escorted by more than a dozen Giant Horned Owl Sky Knights, the Storm Shark did not enter New Sarn City, but stopped in an open area outside the city.

In addition to the hideous shape and huge size of the Storm Shark, which is likely to frighten the Giant Horned Owl group in New Sarn City, the environment of New Sarn City is also the main reason.

The origin of the "City of a Thousand Towers" is due to the special magical building technology of New Sarn, which has led to the astonishing height of the buildings in the city, which looks like a forest of thousands of needles from a distance, dense and towering towers.

The girls who had never been to this legendary city were stunned by the towers that are generally hundreds of meters high in New Sarn, and kept exclaiming in admiration, and because of the mercenary mission, Diff Cornell, who had been to New Sarn, proudly explained the history of New Sarn to them.

However, Jialan, who was also theoretically coming to New Sarn for the first time, seemed extraordinarily calm, just silently staring at this strange city, with a look of remembrance in his eyes, which made Ding Bao Belen on the side very curious.

Yes, in the previous era, Jialan had followed her teacher to this city, which was also one of the famous cities of the Arcane, and participated in several spell seminars, but at that time, it was not called "City of a Thousand Towers: New Sarn", but "City of Ten Thousand Towers: Sarn"!

The geographical location is not in the current place, but dozens of kilometers away from New Sahn, closer to the mouth of Jianshan Bay, at that time, the height of the building was even more than 1,500 meters...... If you accidentally fall from the top of the tower, you have enough time to write a suicide note, and then remember your life and say goodbye to your family and friends.

Sarn can be regarded as the most peculiar city in the Star Continent, whether it is in the previous era or the current era, between any two adjacent towers, there will be more than a dozen sky bridges from top to bottom, and even between several adjacent towers, you can also see a piece of sky square or sky garden that acts as a market.

These skybridges and sky plazas connecting the adjacent towers are not only convenient for residents to move between the different towers, but also mainly to strengthen the entire tower complex, and the large number of sky bridges makes the whole city look like a bush covered with spider silk, which is extremely intricate.

In such a thorny city, with the size of the Storm Shark, it is naturally impossible to dock safely, and if you are not careful, it is very likely to crash into a certain tower, or be punctured by the spear-like spire of a certain tower.

In order not to fly to a strange place like a leaky balloon, dancing the irregular "figure-of-eight dance", Jialan and his party decided to honestly transfer to the unique tower cable car of New Sarn to their destination, the headquarters of the Alchemy Guild, the Alchemy Tower.
