Chapter 261: Reversal and Relics

"Sir Jiang, I think... you should come and take a look."

Hackett, who was at the helm, walked into the warehouse and said to him, with a bit of confusion in his voice.

The medium-sized sky island was not much different from an ordinary sky island in appearance. There were even a large number of moving shadows gathered at the bottom, with large ones like houses and small ones like swimming fish.

"My talent for magic is very poor, but those things... are weird."

Is there any danger that needs to be judged by oneself? Jiang Liu thought about it, covered it with the Eagle Eye model, and began to observe carefully.

What gathered at the bottom of the floating island was not the cloud-dwelling creatures they thought, but rather shapeless blocks.

What if the stone no longer falls from the island, but rises from the ground to the sky?

Scattered brown-black mud blocks and dark green trees create an invisible river that reaches from the earth to the sky. The mud blocks and trees are just debris flowing in this invisible river. They go up the river and become the symbol of this empty island. part.

The floating island is extracting soil from the ground thousands of meters below to replenish its missing parts, the mass lost due to accidents and the natural environment.

It will stop until it reaches the mass limit that the floating stone vein can carry.

This is used to achieve a quality cycle.

"Reverse fall..."

Jiang Liu listened to the geologist standing next to him whispering and turned to look at her.

This is the first time he has seen this phenomenon, the first time he has heard this term from someone else. Is it falling from the ground into the sky... This report should be of interest to the lord.

Will this phenomenon also occur on other normal islands...

‘Reverse Meteor’

Jiang Liu silently memorized this terminology and asked.

"Should we move over and take a look?"

Aina took out a notebook from her arms. Each page was covered with letters sent by her mentor. She collected them and put them in the notebook to protect them from damage with protective spells.

Flip through, find the location in memory, and stop.

'The first time I saw the reverse meteorite phenomenon... I thought it was fake when I heard their description. But the scene was very shocking. If you come, Aina, you might be able to see this phenomenon. However, the navigator told me not to get close to the place where the meteorite occurred, otherwise the aerostat will lose control. ’

'Although it is not clear what the cause of this phenomenon is, there is no record in any archives that this phenomenon will occur on empty islands that appear due to floating stones... The navigator said that I am really lucky. How many people want to see it? I have not encountered a reverse meteorite phenomenon, and there is no pattern in the occurrence of reverse meteorites. ’

'Each trip only lasted about a week, and the voyage might end as soon as it arrived. ’

‘It should be winter now, no matter where you are, please keep warm. ’

"No, if we don't go there, it may be dangerous. This is a relatively rare phenomenon that may occur on the empty island here. If we don't go there, this phenomenon will not have any impact on us."

Aina shook her head. She didn't want to discuss the reasons for the reverse meteor phenomenon. She just wanted to know why her teacher left a mark on the island.

"Let's go around the island to see if there are any particularly obvious markers on the island. The location shown on the map should be the west side of this medium-sized sky island."

Jiang Liu nodded, put aside the curiosity in his heart, and controlled the aerospace ship to change course and head to the west side of this medium-sized sky island according to the navigation of the compass.

"It feels better to see the ground."

Seeing the sea of ​​clouds gradually being replaced by greenery, Jiang Liu calmed down. Having Lin Hai underneath meant that they could finally land. Instead of floating helplessly a thousand meters in the air, he could comfortably eat a round of hot food.

If you fall down, you can at least survive.

The characteristics of the floating stone engine determine that it will not lose all power instantly like ordinary engines, but will weaken extremely slowly, weakening to the floating performance that these floating stones should originally have.

Without any reminder from Aina, Jiang Liu had already seen the special feature of this island, a piece of woodland that was obviously cleared artificially.

In the center of the forest, a slightly damaged stone wall and door were located among the rock formations. The jet black stone wall is carved with lines that seem to be flashing blue light spots. The broken door has piled up into a pile of stones, blocking all latecomers from exploring in depth.

Adjacent to it is a group of wooden buildings that have begun to become abandoned. This specially developed camp has been visibly abandoned for several months. Plants and vines began to wrap around the wooden frame of the building, growing higher using them as fulcrums, and the waterproof canvas became tattered by natural tearing.

A group of wild wolves are occupying camps that belong to humans, turning these camps built by humans into their own lairs.

"Wait a minute, I need to take care of these things... This is a free service."

Aina glanced at Hackett, who had already covered the top of her ears with his hands, and then pressed his ears with his arms.

Demihuman hybrids are more sensitive to sounds than ordinary humans.

Four voices, but only two hands.

"I haven't fired a gun in a while...but my shooting skills haven't deteriorated...I don't know much about your situation, but I still recommend that you cover your ears like him."

Jiang Liu wrapped the cloth around the barrel of the gun and used the resistance provided by the cloth to hold the gun steady on the window, learning Chang Heng's shooting method.

The largest wolf, lying quietly on the ground, seemed to have discovered the uninvited guest who had fallen from the sky. It bared its teeth and warned the monster that had fallen from the sky not to offend their territory. The circulation that was difficult to detect with the naked eye was circulating along its body.

Aim and shoot.

Pull the trigger.

The bullet hit its pupil accurately, spreading a blood flower.

The wolf was dead, and the rest of the wolf pack was still hesitant and unable to understand what was happening. The lead rain of shotguns from the sky had covered them. These small lead bullets were absolutely sufficient in terms of lethality.

It was the first time that Aina saw this kind of weapon firing, and she was shocked even though she covered her ears. Hackett, who was standing next to her, indifferently put down his hand covering the four channels after the other party fired, and looked at Aina, who was a little confused, and wanted to say something but stopped.

Soldiers jumped off the airship one by one with long guns in their hands. Their muskets were already loaded with deadly shotguns used against close-range units.

They used four large lead shotguns for medium distance.

The hit rate and lethality at medium range are even better than single-headed bullets.

Stepping onto the green grass, the soldiers checked the tents one by one to see if there were any remaining wolves, and began to recycle all the available materials here as materials for building a temporary campfire.

To ensure safety, they only lived on the airship, but they could light an open fire to eat some hot food. When resting, they let the airship anchor and lock the ground to avoid being blown away when they woke up.

"This pile of stones may be half a meter thick... They probably didn't have a suitable way to move these stones, so they hurriedly completed the research and left?"

Aina arrived in front of the broken stone gate under the escort, and the spell model dedicated to exploration was unfolded and penetrated into the stone wall.

The feedback waveform told her that the cavity was half the distance behind the wall. This pile of stones had traces of collection. It seemed that the people who camped here before only tried to dig this door and gave up.

This place is too far from the central airspace, and no one is willing to mobilize manpower and risk their lives to explore a relic with unknown benefits. The governor only cares about the tax revenue and trade volume in his hands. The mercenaries don't believe in big cakes. They only pursue wealth that can be obtained immediately.

"Well, if you want to move these stones..."

Jiang Liu stretched out his hand and scratched his head. He did have a way to help Aina solve the problem.

"I have a quick way, which may be a little violent..."
