Chapter 436: Sky Knight

Chen Mu stood at the edge of the deck, looking into the distance through the protective railing.

It was dawn, he had just finished his evening shift, and now that he had left work, he had entered the rest time, and stopped by the deck to watch the sunrise.

The float ship flies very high, it is flying above the clouds, that is, the stratosphere when the general plane flies, but it is not so high, it is relatively close to the clouds, as if sailing on the sea of clouds, it is very dreamy.

The sea of clouds is pale green, not the common white clouds, and the sun is not the kind that Chen Mu sees on the earth, but tends to be rusty red, after all, this is a wasteland, and the environment and landform are naturally very different.

Even so, watching the sea of clouds and the sunrise from the float boat is still spectacular, Chen Mu watched it for a few days in a row, and still felt shocked.

He was part of the medium-sized float in the team responsible for opening the way, this float boat has been modified in battle, it was originally a very ordinary cargo model, and after the modification, it is equivalent to an armed merchant ship.

The floating boat in the middle of the team was a large cargo ship, several times larger than the one Chen Mu was in, and it looked like a giant whale soaring in the sky.

The last one was also a converted armed merchant ship, a total of three floating boats, and the flight altitude was also a very conventional altitude, that is, flying on the top of the troposphere and shuttling above the sea of clouds.

At this height, the air is relatively thin and the temperature is also very low, so there is no way for martial artists below the congenital level to board the ship, and they can't withstand such a harsh environment at all.

Of course, there is no way, for example, some cabins are modified to form a pressurized and heated environment, so that passengers with weak physical fitness can live in it.

But such a situation is relatively rare, after all, most of the people who really have the money to buy this kind of special ferry ticket have already used various methods to improve their strength, and the rich and powerful people, if they really want to pile up to the congenital, it is not a particularly difficult thing.

Even if the talent is a little scum, then come with a few more life-saving pills, try a few more times, and you can always rush to the congenital, but such a parallel congenital, the combat effectiveness must be greatly reduced compared to the genuine product, but rich people don't care about this.

On Chen Mu's ship, there doesn't seem to be such a special cabin, so naturally there is no so-called "weak chicken guest", but I heard that on the big ship in the middle, a cabin was specially modified this time, and the reason was that there were distinguished passengers on board.

The specific Chen Mu is not clear, he is just a night shift handyman, the purpose is to take a boat to the "business alliance", he is not interested in other things, and he doesn't want to cause more trouble, just be a quiet beautiful man.

After watching the sunrise, Chen Mu did not rush back to the room to rest, his room was naturally a Datong bunk in poor conditions, crowded with other handymen, and the small room was full of twelve people.

Fortunately, it was divided into two shifts, and there were only six people during the break, otherwise there was really no place to put down.

Chen Mu is still in a weak state, and his strength has not recovered, but no matter what, this fatigue is still bearable, and it is not a big deal not to sleep for three or five days, so he prefers to stay on the deck during the day.

There is no such thing as basking in the sun, so I won't talk about ultraviolet rays here, it's purely high-intensity radiation, Rao is a congenital martial artist, and he is not very willing to be exposed to the stratospheric sun for a long time.

Chen Mu doesn't care, this level of radiation, although it is a little troublesome, but for him, it is really not a big deal, not to mention that his internal strength is born from the radiation qigong of the radiation sect, and the resistance to radiation itself is relatively strong.

The white light in the center of the eyebrows alone is enough to ignore the erosion of radiation, if other martial artists have too much radiation, they have to worry about zombieization, Chen Mu does not have this possibility at all, unless the system is completely burped, no matter how excessive the radiation is, it is impossible to become a zombie.

So Chen Mu sat on the side of the deck like this, of course, in order not to be so conspicuous, he still deliberately sat in a shadow, somewhat isolating some of the radiation.

At this time, the Sky Knight began to change shifts, and the two squads of twelve people in total carried their mounts on the side of the deck and prepared to take off.

The Sky Knights, who had been scattered around the fleet before, returned in batches, returning to a squad each time and completing the shift change in two parts.

Of course, there were more than twelve Sky Knights on duty, but Chen Mu's ship sent two teams, and there were two other ships, a total of almost forty or fifty people.

Their mounts are not uniform, but several varieties, the most of which is a big bird called the "Ripple Vulture", which is the size of a small glider, which can be ridden by a single person, and it also has not weak combat effectiveness, which belongs to the more entry-level mounts of the Sky Knight, which is economical and affordable.

It's a little better than this thing, it's the "Wind and Thunder Four-winged Lion", which is slightly larger than the big bird, but its own combat power is enough to beat the big bird, and it can provide the rider with the European qi amplification of the wind and thunder attributes, which is very popular with the sky knights of these two attributes, and the price is expensive.

At the same level is the "Bald Battlehawk", which is not a mount with specific attributes, but it has a unique advantage in terms of speed, and it is also not cheap.

The least number is the glittering "Golden Body Double-Headed Roc", which is the size of an ordinary fighter jet and can ride two people, and its combat power far exceeds that of the previous varieties.

Chen Mu observed for two days, there were almost two hundred Sky Knights in the fleet, which was a very large team, generally speaking, a fleet of three floating boats could have a hundred Sky Knights, which was considered a high match.

Of course, in the current fleet, the floating boat in the middle is indeed relatively large, and it has not been converted into an armed merchant ship, and its own combat effectiveness is weak, so it is normal to carry more sky knights.

After all, in the stratosphere air combat, relying solely on the flight of the innate martial artist himself to fight is very disadvantaged, and it cannot be compared with the sky knight of the same level at all.

The general conversion standard is that it takes more than five martial artists of the same level to be able to barely deal with a sky knight, and the mobility is far from being comparable to the latter, if the latter fights guerrilla and kite flying, then there is no need to fight at all, even if ten or twenty martial artists of the same level are sent, they may not be able to get a sky knight.

This is also why, Chen Mu is nominally a part-time guard, but in fact he is just a handyman, and it is not his turn to carry out combat missions at all, unless it is at the critical moment of the fleet's death, it is enough to have a sky knight to deal with it.

"Well, if Pipsqueak were still with me, I could have posed as a Sky Knight, but God knows where Pipsqueak is now. ”

Chen Mu sighed, got up and walked to the cabin, not to go back to the room to rest, but to go to the cafeteria to eat something.
