Chapter 48: The Dragon That Doesn't Make People Worry

South of the imperial capital, it is bordered by a deserted wasteland.

The scorching wind swept through the sparse woods of the wasteland, causing the already yellow grass leaves to curl up. The distant river, under the sunlight, was like a ribbon with silver light, flowed into the distance, passed through several small towns, and then went straight to the end of the view.

At the end of the field of vision is an endless desert, which is a silent sandy land that is isolated from the central region of the empire and the southern fortress area. Due to the obstruction of mountains, the humid air in the south cannot reach the small plain. Coupled with the changes in the groundwater veins, the plain that was originally abundant thousands of years ago has become a silent wasteland now.

Above the wasteland, a huge steel creature steadily crossed the sky, casting a narrow shadow on the earth.

On the deck of the Fierce Wind, Joshua stood at the forefront of the ship and stared silently into the distance. The strong wind blew the warrior's clothes and heads toward the rear, and the wind also swept the flags on both sides of the giant ship, making it rush.

Above that flag, the five-star ringing sun and the emblem of the sword-holding hand were so conspicuous that it attracted everyone's attention.

"A floating warship, it's really a pity that Emperor Majesty can say it."

He sighed softly, feeling the hot wind flowing beside him, and recalling the scene not long ago, Joshua couldn't help but laugh: "Isrell Delmond, this kind of courage is indeed the spirit that only emperors have."

Of course, everyone knows that it is impossible for someone to send a new floating warship to other people for no reason. The warriors are not fools, so he naturally knows the emperor's intention.

According to Master Nostradamus, the Holy Mountain of the Far Sea asked the Empire for help only to use the power of order on his own to break through certain areas blocked by evil spirits. However, it was fine if the Empire did not agree. Since it agreed, it would be impossible for him to go alone.

But to send an army across most of the world and go to Far South on the other end of the Great Six to fight the Dragon Monster, both from the actual perspective and morale perspective, it is the worst choice. Even the most elite troops among the five legions may not be able to help this, so Isrell came up with a good idea.

The floating battleship "Liefeng" that is still in the experimental stage will be sent out.

For the Eastern Plains masters, the magic towers, floating islands, and even floating cities are not novel things. After all, magic energy furnace hearts were originally born in their laboratory, but floating warships are not so simple. What they need is not pure buoyancy, but stable and lasting power.

To let a giant float in the air, any magistrate can easily do it after preparation, but to let a giant fly in the air is another completely different problem. Compared to the floating island that cannot move very slowly, the magic furnace core of the floating warship must be miniaturized and stabilized. In order to be mass-produced in the future and facilitate popularization, its production materials must also be as cheap as possible.

Before the Liefeng, the Empire had designed many floating warships, and many small airships were built, but due to the incomplete power system, most of them were sealed. Until today, through long-term experiments and calculations, the mages completed debugging the Liefeng.

Send this experimental floating warship to assist the Seven Gods Church. Even the most demanding people on the Great Six cannot say that the Empire is indifferent to this matter. Moreover, with the power of this warship, it will definitely help the church resist the Crazy Dragon, and at the same time collect practical data, show its technical strength in front of various countries, and win multiple goals at one fell swoop.

As for why he gave this warship so simply, Joshua believed that Isreir probably felt that the warship would definitely fall in the battle with the Crazy Dragon, but as long as he could collect data, it would not be a loss for the empire that was eager to continue to improve its technology. Anyway, according to the agreement between major forces, the wreckage of the warship would definitely be sent back to the empire, and with the character of the warrior, he would definitely not want these things.

"But care about him."

Standing on the deck of the Fierce Wind and feeling the strong wind brought by the rapid flight of the floating warship, Joshua looked down at the clouds beneath him, and he laughed loudly, too lazy to think about those meaningless things.

But no matter how you say, this steel giant ship belongs to him now! The warriors' battle group in their previous life also had their own floating fortress, but it was jointly built by all the members of the group. Now, the Liefeng belongs entirely to him!

What a luxury to own a floating battleship alone!

【Floating Battleship·Liefeng】

【Large composite stylized component, quality】

【Average hardness of outer armor: 72, possessing ability: floating, magic energy propulsion, magic shield, physical damage reduction, high-element immunity, ignoring corrosion, magic energy surge, fierce wind charge (self-destruction)]

[Additional Techniques and external construction: five large magic energy focusing cannons, forty conventional alchemy cannons, nine sides of the addition array, twelve sides of the floating array, positioning and traction and transmission, furnace heart dissolution (self-destruction)]

[Note: This is a large floating warship jointly developed by the Imperial Royal Mage Association and Guantian Baita. It is 167 meters long and has good maneuverability. Compared with other floating warships that are still under experimentation, the Liefeng is relatively cheap, but its combat capability is even greater, and its power is even greater. The only defect is that the dual magic energy furnace heart structure has certain defects in the energy cycle. It cannot be carried out for too long. Otherwise, it is very likely to automatically act on the "Liefeng Charge" or "Furn Heart Furnace" and other abilities.]

[Wait, I haven't adjusted the energy system of this thing yet...what? Is this an advantage?]

"Bang bang bang"

Just as Joshua was still enjoying the strong wind on the deck, there were rapid footsteps behind him.

Joshua, who already knew who was coming, turned his head and looked behind him. Sure enough, the figure of the silver girl appeared in front of him.

Just after the Liewind was teleported to the Aden Fortress from a secret laboratory where the Empire was located, Nostradamus also sent Fire, Rin and Hei over. Since everyone present was decisive, the old mage had discussed the matter with the warriors and Isreel and others about the Liewind, and then simply sent Joshua and his group to the floating battleship and went out directly.

As a special model of floating ship, the Liefeng has the ability to respond to teleportation. Strictly speaking, this floating ship cannot actually teleport. It can only be "positioned and pulled" by a large teleportation array that meets the conditions like a certain summoning object, and this traction ability is still limited by distance.

There is a magic array surrounding the imperial capital that restricts teleportation, and only the three fortresses can not be affected, but the three fortresses cannot communicate to the next teleportation point. Therefore, the Liefeng can only stay away from the imperial capital as much as possible and then respond to the teleportation array of the southern fortress of the empire. It passes through many kingdoms in the western mountain and the far south border fortress, and then arrives at the far sea holy mountain. This journey is not long, but very cumbersome.

The silver girl, who seemed to be jogging all the way, ran to Joshua's side, and then said in a somewhat unstable tone: "Master, the Liefeng has left the teleportation area of ​​the imperial capital. We need to prepare to start teleportation. The captain wants to ask you to return to the hull first."

"Okay, I'll go back right away."

Nodded, the soldier noticed that Ying's expression looked a little bad and a little uncomfortable. He raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise and concern: "What's wrong, Ying, you don't look very uncomfortable... Is it seasick?"

"No, I'm not dizzy..." Miss Shenji frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, but then curled her lips and said with a headache: "But, black... black seasick."

Speaking of this, Ying looked a little angry. She held the corner of the warrior's clothes and frowned: "At the beginning, Heidan was very quiet in the cargo hold and didn't move. My brother thought it liked it very much, but it only appeared when I went to chat with Heid, and it had completely fainted!"

"...It is unlikely that the Earth Dragon or the Sea Dragon have experienced flying. This guy, maybe the first sea dragon to come to the sky."

Xun found the reason, and Joshua touched the silver girl's little head silently. He didn't know whether to laugh or be serious: "For Hei, it's really a lot of suffering throughout the journey, but Ying, why are your face so ugly? Did Hei vomit?"

"That's not, but it subconsciously licked me in a coma!" First, he shook his head, and Ying denied the warrior's speculation, but then she complained dissatisfiedly: "But it was released there after it was unconscious, and the cargo hold was no longer close to it."

"Wait, cargo hold?"

Hearing this word, Joshua suddenly felt a little strange. He turned his head and stared at the Silver Girl, and Ying was also stared at a little panicked: "What... what's wrong, Master..."

"I said...didn't you give the Yisha Crush to black?"

This time it was the warrior's turn to have a headache: "When I got on the boat, I gave you and Rin the Easy-Shaped Slide. He is so big that he can only become smaller if he wants to move freely... It is still in the cargo hold..."

Shaking her head, Joshua didn't know what to say, and the silver girl's face turned red, it was obvious that she had indeed forgotten to blacken the Yisha Cover.

But even so, the warrior could not blame Ying because he had forgotten that he had no position at all. He was just suffering and had no seasickness. He could not act freely and could only stay in the narrow cargo hold.
