"Not good!" Lance was startled, but before he could react, the longbow in the opponent's hand had already shot a sharp arrow!

"Ellie!" Lance shouted back.

"I'm trying to change direction!" Alyselle, of course, saw this as well, and she immediately adjusted the magic panel in her hand to try to adjust the direction of the hot air balloon's flight.

The arrow flew at a fast pace, and with Ellie's efforts, the hot air balloon deflected slightly to the west.

The bow and arrow and the hot air balloon passed by, and the grinning parrot was scratched a little, but there was no gap.

"Hoo ......"

All three of them let out a sigh of relief. Lance lifted Oslot, and was about to shoot back, but his face was a little difficult to look at after a little aim.

"What's wrong?" asked Ellie nervously.

"It's too far away......" Lance frustrated. The puppeteers on the walls of the city are armed with strengthened longbows that can attack up to a distance of three hundred paces. And Lance's Oslot, although there is a level 0 spell attached to it, can't attack that far.

"We had to find a place to land. He said quickly. Seeing the strange puppeteer slowly pull the longbow again, his nerves couldn't help but tense.

"I'll try ......," Ellie fiddled with the runes on the panel.

However, at this time, there was a sudden burst of alarms at the top of the hot air balloon!

This series of sirens immediately surprised the three of them. A faint orange-yellow glow kept shining brightly. The entire hot air balloon seemed to go insane, and suddenly began to accelerate towards the sky above the puppet city.

"What's wrong?!"

Sou.

Once again, the hot air balloon brushes past the puppeteer's bow and arrow. Lance was not in a good mood, and he asked Ellie with a frown.

Ellie looked at the magic panel at a loss, and only after a while did she raise her head with a pale face: "I, I don't know what to do...... I can't seem to give it orders. I mean, this hot air balloon is out of control!"

"Damn!" Lance slammed the railing, squinting his eyes at the fierce wind.

In the blink of an eye, the magic hot air balloon accelerated into the sky above the puppet city. They crossed the city walls, and below them there was a vast expanse of land shrouded in mist. Many of the oddly shaped houses were raised high, but he could only vaguely reach a silhouette. Only in the distance in the middle of the city, where the colorful light comes from, a majestic royal palace stands impressively.

"Princess Hiro's royal palace. Lance silently read in his mind. That place is the fundamental purpose for many people to come to the puppet city. There was a woman in the palace named Princess Hiro, who was said to be very fond of dolls and puppets, so she poured her soul into an eternal puppet so that she could survive for a long time. Princess Hiro is a clever puppeteer, but she is not very conscious, and has been active in the palace of the puppet city.

She has a magical golem in her hand, which is said to contain many of the arcane secrets of the ancient puppet city. This magic doll is so valuable that even the most powerful third-level wizard in Ferendor covets it.

The direction of the hot air balloon flying rapidly is the royal palace of the puppet city!

"What the hell is going on!" Ellie put down the panel in her hand and stood side by side with Lance. At this moment, she also saw the puppet city palace in the distance.

"What should we do?" asked Martha, timidly.

"Adaptable. Cheer up. Lance said calmly: "The hot air balloon suddenly went out of control, someone must be playing tricks in the dark." We'll see what happens. ”

......

After entering the city, the hot air balloon that was flying at high speed gradually slowed down. By this time, Lance was able to see the buildings below. The houses in the puppet city were all very tall, much taller than the backward buildings in this world in his impression, almost comparable to the high-rise buildings on the earth in the previous life.

I don't know what the road is about, and the hot air balloon also lowered the altitude of its flight. In some cases, they even searched from one tall building to another. There are no people in these levels, only golems. None of the puppets moved, but none of them looked like they were to be messed with.

"The destination of the hot air balloon is the royal palace. But why is it taking us in circles?" asked Ellie, frowning.

Lance shook his head. He looked at the buildings on both sides, and suddenly asked in a low voice, "Martha, would you rather follow me or go all the way with Ellie?"

Both girls were stunned by Lance's sudden question.

Martha thought about it, and still stood beside Elliejie: "I'm still with Elliejie." ”

Ellie looked back at the girl in surprise, and when she turned around, all she was left with was a back of Lance!

He jumped out of the hot air balloon!

"He's crazy!" Alyselle and Martha were shocked!

Although the hot air balloon does not fly high, it is still quite far from the ground. Even if you have the blessing of a spell such as the Feather Fall Technique, if you jump down so directly, I'm afraid you will fall hard.

The two women leaned on the sidebar and looked out.

I saw Lance gently stretch his body in the air, and the air around him seemed to freeze, and the speed of descent suddenly slowed down by half a beat.

The next moment, he stretched out his hand sharply and grabbed the trunk of a towering tree, and in an instant, a rabbit fell and disappeared into the dense forest.

"I see...... The spell that changed the force field......" Ellie thought thoughtfully, "Could it be the perverted spell of Bileg rotating the force field?"

......

Lance chose to jump off the hot air balloon for a very simple reason, he had a very bad premonition in his heart.

There must be someone secretly manipulating the path of the hot air balloon, instead of waiting in the hot air balloon, it is better to take the initiative to attack, at least to interrupt the opponent's plan, and snatch the initiative back.

Now that he has gotten off the hot air balloon halfway, it must have been unexpected by those behind the scenes.

"This must have been a park before......" Lance strode briskly through the small woods. The air is very clean and the trees are growing very vigorously.

However, thanks to his encounter in the Forbidden Forest of the Outer Regions of Ferendor, Lance still has little affection for places where trees are thriving. In the face of the demon's attack that time, he didn't even have the strength to fight back, if it weren't for the help of the woodpecker Ekins and the celestial deer Tiransius, I'm afraid he would have died in the hands of the demon.

He weaved carefully from tree to tree, and soon came to a small lake in the middle of the woods.

At the edge of the lake is a circle of heavenly trees. Lance leaned in and found that each Tree of Heaven had their names engraved on it. A man and a woman, with a heart drawn in the middle.

"It turned out to be a dating resort, a place for couples to set for life. Lance walked around the lake, and in addition to a long list of unfamiliar names, he finally found an ancient stone tablet.

The stele has the words "Mia Park" written on it, and there is a schematic map of the park below, which has six exits leading to each direction.

"If you want to go to the Puppet City Palace, well, go in this direction. "Lance's self-proclaimed ability to recognize the road is extraordinary.

However, out of an abundance of caution, he asked the fox to memorize a map of the park.

Leaving the lake, I walked about a mile or two as indicated on the map and walked out of the woods.

A dilapidated fence gate is ajar, and out the door is the street. Here the fog began to fill.

Suddenly there were a few whistling sounds and low incantations in the distance. A huge shadow appeared on the street.

"Huh, there are wizards?"

Lance thought about it for a moment, and finally quietly leaned over.
