Chapter 438 Large Sky Island Station
"Nice to meet you. It seems that Sky Island has arrived nearby according to the established route?"
The person in charge of Sky Island No. 3 reached out to them, and a disposable wooden ladder fell down and leaned on the back of the cloud whale, setting up a temporary passage for them.
He looked at the cloud whale carrying these students and an elf with some surprise. It seemed that it was the first time he saw a cloud whale so close to humans.
Forna looked at the unstable escalator and finally decided to throw down a few seeds to temporarily build a bridge made of plants. The green vines fixed the wooden ladder and expanded it into a passage.
Miss Elf landed on land again and felt unprecedented peace of mind.
Finally, she didn't have to keep an eye on these students on the back of the whale to prevent them from slipping and falling!
"Yeah."
Miss Elf's eyes fell on the sentinels patrolling outside the station. The dark black soldiers wore loose clothes that didn't match their bodies at all - as if they were wearing a piece of armor attached to their bodies under their clothes.
Or another skeleton?
She remembered that the soldiers were not dressed like this when they came here to get samples last time. They were wearing gray uniforms that looked so thin that they couldn't block a bow and arrow.
Actually, they couldn't block it.
At a close distance, the goblin's javelin could easily penetrate their pitifully low defense.
The person in charge seemed to notice the curiosity of the elf lady, and he turned around and explained slowly.
"The creatures on this sky island are not like..."
The person in charge of the No. 3 Sky Island Station looked at the cloud whale that carried them to the large sky island, watching it slowly turn its body and return to the whale group to forage after realizing that there were no humans on its back.
The richness of plants in the inverted ecosystem of the large floating island is not comparable to their small sky island. Any cloud-dwelling creature can find their favorite food here.
Settle here.
This only means that there are super-large-scale... neutral creatures active in this area, and there is no shortage of hostile creatures.
"Not as friendly as those big guys...some safety measures are necessary."
The safety facilities you mentioned are the heavily armed heavy assault infantry and the rifles they hold in their hands...and the shovels and hammers on their backs?
Forna noticed the engineer shovels and engineer hammers that were revealed when the soldiers turned around. It was difficult for her to determine whether these two things were used to face people or other monsters on the sky island.
"That's only part of the reason...the other part is that we need to maintain sufficient deterrence against the newly received population, and the soldiers always have to undertake some temporary fortification construction tasks."
The person in charge walked in front and led the students to the direction of the sky island station.
A considerable number of students in these engineering colleges arrived at this large sky island with its own independent ecology for the first time, and the remaining students who arrived at the large sky island because they needed to repair the airship could not keep up with the rapidly developing camp.
"We have newly recruited some sub-humans. Miss Forna, if you need them, you can ask them to take you to explore resources and inspect them."
Following the footsteps of the person in charge, the students were surprised like children going out for the first time.
Miss Elf wanted to bury her head in the ground, and also wanted to run back to the Engineering College right now to drag Xu Shan out and put him in her place.
So embarrassing, so shameful.
Obviously, all these students have already grown up, why are they happier with more people, and are still discussing it with the patrolling soldiers.
"Recruiting sub-humans... Did Ji let Sky Island open up?"
She tried to ignore the behavior of the group of students behind her.
"Well... There is no level of publicizing the existence of both sides and large-scale migration of people, right? But all the interactive trade is still going on normally."
The person in charge shook his head and his eyes fell on the newly built settlement not far away. The people inside had animal-like features - usually two ears of different shapes on their heads.
There is no way to deceive the other party with large-scale resource flows, but the transport team of the territory has always been very cautious not to disclose its route.
Between a route that can actually bring benefits and an enemy, the governor chose the former without hesitation.
Of course, before there is enough benefit, before the risk cannot be assessed.
Risk is the word that a governor hates to hear the most.
"We have divided a residential area for them... These subhumans have all been through strict political review, and we will focus more on their resumes..."
"We have reached a certain degree of cooperation with them, providing them with equipment and funds... Let these adventurers who specialize in the sky island help us draw the blueprint of this sky island. There are only soldiers in our team."
The person in charge looked at the students wearing white college uniforms behind him, showing a gratified look and sighing.
There are only soldiers in his team, which means they can't handle all situations-testing poisons, planting, healing, sewing...
He needs more, and the territory's army must be more complex.
The world belonging to the subhumans has accumulated a large number of technical talents, and the territory is slowly absorbing and drawing knowledge from another world.
Just like the territory slowly learns and absorbs talents in the holy city.
That is a wealth more valuable than resources.
Finally, integrate this knowledge into your own... ladder.
Miss Elf didn't understand what was going on. She felt a little dizzy.
She just subconsciously touched her ears. Suddenly she wondered if the four-eared demi-humans could also hear things in four channels.
And it looked really soft. It really seemed like she was going to find a female demi-human to touch her ears.
And... the tail!
