Chapter 505 506. Magic Airship

From the Plateau City to Padstow City.

If you go by land, you need to go through the mountain pass in the south of the plateau, follow the dangerous cliff road to the foot of the mountain, then go through the hills and mountains to the Griffin Fortress Town, then turn north through the dense jungle, and you can successfully reach Padstow City.

This journey, even for Leishande's caravan, it takes a month.

If the Griffin Cavalry flies directly to the east, it only takes three days and three nights to reach Padstow.

This time Roy set out from the Plateau City and took Kaka's griffin to take this air route. The griffin only needs to fly into the wind layer, spread its wings and glide all the way to quickly fly over the Nicobar Mountains and enter the sky above the collapsed land.

When there are no clouds, Roy can clearly see the sharp mountains below, riding on the back of the griffin.

Even when flying in the sky, Roy can see these mountains rising continuously, countless rocks breaking and collapsing, and then smashing into the deep ravines on both sides.

The crust of this area is always moving, with countless mountains rising from the ground, and countless mountains collapsing rapidly in the dust.

This is the collapsed land between the Pagisto Plateau and the Padstow Forest...

The griffin flew over this collapsed land for a whole day. When it reached the edge of the collapsed land, the violent fluctuations of the crust eased, and the steep mountains became flat here. There were countless swamps and lakes between the mountains, and these lakes converged into rivers and flowed into the Padstow Forest.

Roy saw a vast sea of ​​forests in his sight, and he knew that it would not take long to reach the city of Padstow.

And this time Kaka took him to fly in the wind layer in the severe cold, and Roy also wanted to survey the route in this wind layer.

He was going to Partington Island to check the progress of the transformation of the magic airship. After the first magic airship was successfully transformed, Roy planned to open shipping between the city of Padstow and the city of the plateau.

Now there are a lot of metal ingots stored on the Padstow Plateau, but the three caravans of Leishande have limited transportation capacity and cannot transport these metal ingots to Padstow.

When the magic airship is available, it can greatly make up for the problem of insufficient transportation capacity between Padstow and the Plateau City...

After the griffin arrived in Padstow, it landed in the orchard outside the city. Roy had to rest in the orchard for one night and then ride to Padstow.

Kaka rode the griffin to the Barrier Town overnight, where he would wait for Roy.

When Roy arrived in Padstow, he came to the warehouse to meet Rambo as soon as possible. The primary magic herbs in the warehouse had been emptied, and what was left in the warehouse were ordinary metal ingots that were not worth much.

"Roy, where did you find the buyers? They have such a big appetite that they ate all our primary magic herbs in one go."

Rambo said excitedly to Roy, holding a thick stack of cargo lists in his hand.

"Rambo, is there a market for trading Warcraft materials in Padstow? I have some Warcraft leather to sell." Roy pulled Rambo aside and asked in a low voice.

"Now the trading of Warcraft materials is also designated by the Silver Pegasus Corps. They keep the purchase price very low here, and then transport the goods to the Elf Continent and sell them at a high price. They make money from the difference. You'd better send the things to the Elf Continent. As long as you can pass through the door in the central square, the price can at least triple." Rambo whispered to Roy.

Roy thought about it and felt that it would be better to take it to the Elf Continent for sale. After all, this time he was going to Partington Island to check the progress of the magic airship's transformation.

"Okay, got it."

Roy did not stay in the warehouse. He rode to the Silver Pegasus Military Headquarters to sign in, and then ran to the city defense guard camp to visit Captain Berkeley.

"You came at the right time. The investigation team sent by the Buenos Elf Elders Council quietly left Padstow a week ago. They didn't even use the guides provided by the Silver Pegasus Legion. Instead, they hired a local adventure group in Padstow. They probably planned to sneak into the Padstow Plateau."

Captain Berkeley saw Roy and immediately told him the bad news.

Roy nodded and said with a smile: "Without the help of the Silver Pegasus Knights, they will have to walk for at least a month to reach the southern part of the plateau. I still have plenty of time..."

"Now the price of magic herbs in the Elf Continent has been rising. I have to say that you really have a business mind!" Captain Berkeley praised, and then asked Roy: "What do you want to see me this time?"

Roy smiled at Captain Berkeley and said: "I plan to build an airport on the edge of Padstow City. I need your support for this!"

"... Airport Terminal... Roy, do you want to buy a magic airship? Open a channel on the Partington plane?" Captain Berkeley stared at Roy with wide eyes.

"Well, the first magic airship is being renovated on Partington Island." Roy replied.

"Roy, you are really brave. Have you ever thought about what to do with the magic airship you spent a lot of money to renovate if the application for the airport terminal is not approved and the plan fails?" Captain Berkeley asked Roy anxiously.

"Then transport this magic airship to the Plateau City and let it fly around the Pagisto Plateau..."

Roy said casually.

"...You are really brave."

Captain Berkeley pointed at Roy's forehead and said.

Roy left the city defense camp only after Captain Berkeley agreed to help Roy apply for an airport terminal on the outskirts of Padstow.

Arriving at the central square, Roy led the horse to the teleportation gate and stood at the end of the queue waiting to pass through the teleportation gate.

He had good luck today. He came to the central square. The portal happened to lead from Padstow to Partington Island. A large amount of supplies stored in the central square had been transported there. Now it happened that the elves with passes Through the portal.

Roy discovered that the vast majority of elves who could freely enter and leave the Partington plane were Silver Moon elves.

Arriving in front of the portal, the mixed-blood elf guard warriors didn't even check Roy's teleportation pass. They saluted directly and let Roy pass through the portal under the surprised eyes of countless Silver Moon elves.

Partington Island seemed crowded and busy, because there happened to be a large number of supplies shipped from Padstow City piled up in the town square.

When Roy walked over, many carriages were parked around the square and were busy transporting these supplies.

Arriving at the edge of the square, Roy was already very familiar with this town.

He chose to take a detour out of the town.

When he came to the beach, he could just see the sea area where the three-masted sailboats were anchored. Roy found a flying fish boat on the beach and negotiated the price with the owner of the flying fish boat. The mixed-blood elf boat owner sent Roy to the three-masted sailboat. A safe haven for anchorage.

"After the economic recovery of the Partington plane, life on Partington Island has become much better, right?"

Roy sat on the Feather Boat and asked the mixed-blood elf driving the fishing boat.

"Well, almost every month a large amount of supplies are shipped from the Partington plane. When you are short of money, you just run to the dock and wait, and someone will take the initiative to hire..." The owner of the Flying Fish boat adjusted the angle of the wind wings, and a gust of wind blew over. The flying fish boat then broke through the waves and moved forward.

The flying fish boat approached a three-masted sailboat that was being renovated. In the distance, Roy saw six supports installed on the left side of the ship. A group of craftsmen were still busy on the three-masted sailboat.

Roy asked the flying fish boat to come closer...

The mixed-blood elf warriors on the three-masted sailboat noticed that a flying fish boat was approaching, and several flying fish boats immediately surrounded it.

When these elf warriors saw that the person coming was Roy, they immediately sent Roy to the three-masted sailboat that was being renovated.

The old dwarf Mags was standing on the deck, leading a group of mixed-blood elf crewmen to unpack a large wooden box. Inside the wooden box was a brand-new flotation device. Mags personally removed the Pull off the dustproof cloth.

This floating device has an outer diameter of more than two meters and a height of almost one and a half meters. It still takes a lot of effort to fix it to the bracket on the edge of the ship's side.

However, the old dwarf Mags has installed a set of pulleys on the main mast, and with the help of the crossbar on the main mast, it has been transformed into a hanger that can rotate in place...

Under Mags' command, the floating device was steadily lifted and moved slowly toward the support frame.

As the flotation device reached the predetermined position, Mags asked two dwarf apprentices to place a few wooden wedges under the flotation device to assist in the fall, and then let the flotation device slowly fall.

The flotation device sat firmly on the clamp of the support frame on the side of the ship.

Then the surrounding wooden wedges were removed, and the floating device was firmly fixed on the support frame with some iron rivets.

The elves and dwarves busy around them cheered happily.

Roy walked up from behind. The old dwarf Mags noticed that the eyes of many mixed-blood elf crew members were focused on one place. He also glanced there and saw Roy walking towards him.

The body of the old dwarf Mags, which had been relaxed, immediately became tense again...

"Don't be nervous, I just came to see the progress of the transformation of the magic airship here. It seems to be going pretty smoothly?" Roy smiled and waved to the old dwarf.

The old dwarf Mags took out a handkerchief from his arms, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then said to Roy respectfully:

"Boss Roy, the modification project of the flotation devices on both sides of your sailboat will be completed soon, and two sets of propulsion devices will be installed at the stern. This can only be carried out after the flotation device is installed and debugged... "

Roy nodded.

The Half-Blood Elf crew began installing another flotation device.

Roy called the old dwarf Mags to his side, and then asked him: "Can this three-masted sailing ship be put into use directly after it is transformed into a magic airship?"

"Yes, but it needs to be systematically checked before it is put into use."

The old dwarf Mags rolled his swollen eyes and said honestly to Roy.

"How long will it take to complete the transformation of the first magic airship?" Roy asked.

"If everything goes well, it will take about four weeks. The next main work is to build a three-masted sailing repair station on the beach. We need to raise the three-masted sailing ship so that we can install the propulsion device at the stern."

The old dwarf Mags had already taken out a blueprint from his arms, then pulled Roy to a table on the deck, pointed at the blueprint and introduced it to Roy.

Many professional terms came from the mouth of the old dwarf Mags. Roy could hardly understand them, but he still gave the old dwarf Mags an encouraging look.

Roy stayed on Partington Island for three days before all twelve floating devices were installed.

The imperial merchants in Castletown Port also took the opportunity to come to Partington Island. This time they also brought two propulsion devices and a human magician.

The twelve floating devices on the three-masted sailing ship were all installed, and the three-masted sailing ship was about to enter the first test run. The magic patterns of these floating devices were activated, and a magician was needed to operate them.

For the sake of safety, the old dwarf Mags asked a human magician who lived on the ship in the port to come here and personally operate the twelve floating devices.

The magician inserted the magic crystals into the gem grooves of the floating devices. Roy and the imperial merchant stood side by side on the observation deck on the top of the ship, watching the scene quietly.

"After the first batch of primary magic herbs were loaded on the ship, they left the port and set off on their return journey the day before yesterday." The imperial merchant said to Roy.

"This whole ship of primary magic herbs is replaced with magic crystals, which is enough for you to modify three magic airships. We only brought thirty floating devices to the Elf Continent this time. For the time being, we can only modify two magic airships. The floating devices behind may have to wait a year before they can be shipped from the Dwarf Kingdom."

Roy turned his head and stared at the imperial merchant. He didn't say before that they could only modify two magic airships.

"How many propulsion devices are there?" Roy asked.

"We brought ten this time."

"That means the existing propulsion devices can install five magic airships?" Roy asked again.

"Yes!"

The Empire Merchant did not expect Roy to be a big herb supplier. Even if he took out all the chips in his hand, it would not be worth the first batch of magic herbs.

Roy frowned and said:

"I also bought a few floating devices before. If I bring those floating devices back, I can probably install three magic airships. In addition, I need to install support frames on all three-masted sailing ships and use the floating devices to transport the three-masted sailing ships to other places. The renovation project of these eleven three-masted sailing ships will continue."

"Okay, I will let Mags keep an eye on this to ensure the quality of the renovation project!" The Empire Merchant said very tactfully.

Roy nodded.

At this time, under the debugging of the human magician, the magic pattern arrays of eight floating devices were already running rapidly.

The huge buoyancy made the entire three-masted sailing ship shake violently, and then the three-masted sailing ship slowly broke away from the sea and floated in the air...
