Chapter 358 The Avenger Returns
After having a simple meal at the old village chief's house, the villagers who were responsible for maintaining the teleportation array took Carl and others to the location of the array.
They directly used a strange material to cover the specific content of the array, so that Carl could not see the runes on it, and could not distinguish the rune number corresponding to the array.
Seeing their evasive appearance, Carl was more certain of his previous guess.
"Don't worry, we just want to send something home to report safety. You should be able to contact the plane merchants in this plane. We need them to help mail a package to the main plane Eruden Wilderness Bixin City."
After that, Carl handed a videotape and a note with the Bixin City public teleportation array to the people in the village, asking them to help teleport to any plane merchant.
Hearing that Carl and others would not operate the array themselves, the 8th-level mage breathed a sigh of relief.
After paying the mailing fee to the other party, Carl and others waited outside for a while, and then saw the mage wiping the sweat from his forehead and walked out.
Once the teleportation array is constant, it is much easier to activate it, and no additional spell slots are needed to start it.
However, the teleportation array can only be used to teleport within the plane, so Carl and his team went to great lengths to hand over their videotapes to the plane merchant to mail.
This wizard is a relative of the old village chief. He inherited the bloodline of their ancestor of the spell school and has a certain talent for spells in the field of spells.
However, despite this, he is already over 50 years old this year.
And Nia, who has just reached adulthood, is one level higher than him.
The gap between wizards is sometimes greater than the gap between humans and dogs.
Finally, after dealing with this matter, Carl and his team relaxed a little, but Iris planned to use the dream spirit to pass the message directly to Ashe and others later, as a two-handed preparation.
In order to prevent the villagers from thinking too much, Carl and his team moved directly into the house arranged for them by the village chief.
Many young people in this village go out for adventures, which has caused the village population to shrink a lot compared to the most prosperous period, leaving a lot of empty houses.
"I heard that places like Eclipse Harbor and Hurricane Fortress can return to the main plane. If you want to go back, you can consider heading there next."
Before leaving, the villager in charge of reception seemed to mention this matter unintentionally.
Carl asked readily: "I wonder if anyone in the village knows how to use and the principle of that compass? Tina and I lack sufficient navigation experience, and some of us don't understand it."
After hearing what Carl said, the villager was shocked.
"Then how did you find it back?"
After coughing awkwardly, Carl smiled and said: "Rely on technology."
Not understanding what Carl meant, the villager nodded and agreed to find someone to teach Carl about this matter tomorrow morning.
The villagers who knew the secret of this floating island were eager for Carl and his friends to leave as soon as possible, so they agreed to this matter quite happily.
So the next morning, Carl dragged the reluctant Tina to learn the use and specific principles of the navigation compass together.
…
In a sea of clouds more than ten kilometers away from the floating island, the air pirate, whose half of his body had been mechanized, looked at the huge spaceship floating not far from the floating island with a solemn face.
It is said that laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway. As a strange machine master, the leader of this air pirate fleet can naturally see how technologically advanced Carl's spaceship is.
Let alone the material itself, the size alone is enough to daunt people.
Once its speed increases, even if there is no firepower attack, its own impact will cause a crushing effect.
"What a joke, is there a genius strange machine master in the village? Impossible! The village simply does not have such resources to cultivate such a talent, and it can't take out so much cloud iron to build this huge airship!"
Holding a telescope to observe the situation of the floating island, the strange machine master's face showed obvious jealousy and unwillingness.
But as he saw more and more details of the spaceship, his unwillingness and jealousy gradually turned into despair and helplessness.
"The owner of this airship is definitely not a villager, but why is he here? Did he come here because he knew the clues to the Giant King's treasure hidden in the village?"
Putting down the telescope, the unknown mechanic clenched his fists, feeling tormented.
The mechanical parts embedded in his flesh made his expression quite ferocious at this moment. His hatred for the village and his fear of Carl's spaceship made it difficult for him to make a decision for a while.
After a long silence, he turned around and said to his men: "Hide the fleet here first! Don't act rashly, bring out my treasures, and wait until the huge airship leaves, then we will capture the floating island!"
"Yes!"
The air pirates under his command saluted in a proper manner, and then ran to the warehouse and drove out a two-meter-high mechanical structure.
The design concept of these constructs is also quite ingenious. The manufacturers intentionally left manual control mechanisms so that subordinates who have been granted the second authority can drive these constructs to launch attacks.
This idea is almost the same as the mechanical spider tanks that Carl left in Storm Bay, except that Carl's work has better protection. The operator can hide in the cab, while these have to expose half of their body outside. If they encounter a sharpshooter, they are basically dead.
But despite this, many air pirates still look proud when driving these constructs.
Of course, some of these air pirates looked at the strange machine master air pirates with cruel eyes when they drove the constructs out.
It is not difficult to guess their thoughts, but they just want to kill the strange machine master air pirates and take these constructs for themselves.
But the spirit of the construct obeys orders according to the authority level given by the manufacturer. Most of these air pirates are non-caster professions and have no ability to modify the authority.
If they launch a rebellion without authorization, as long as the strange machine master air pirate gives an order, the constructs under them will pull them off and step on them to death.
Even if they kill each other by assassination, these constructs will enter standby mode due to the lack of the first authority, and will no longer be controlled by the second authority.
So after weighing the pros and cons, these ambitious people only slightly revealed their intentions and then restrained themselves again.
At the bow of the flagship airship, the strange machine master Sky Pirate narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a little bad.
Of course he knew the intentions of those guys, but if he wanted these professionals to work for him, this kind of thing had to be endured.
‘If I can make that kind of airship... No! As long as I can have it, even if I have to sacrifice all my men, I am willing! ’
Looking at the spaceship in the distance, the strange machine master Sky Pirate shouted in his heart.
