As darkness enveloped the entire cabin, a sudden, powerful forward thrust came from the seats. Jiang Hao felt fine, but Yun Xinghe was already screaming and yelling in the cabin, just like the screaming tourists on a roller coaster, making Jiang Hao's eardrums ache.

Jiang Hao had to cover his ears with his hands. The acceleration lasted for a full hour before Yun Xinghe's screams gradually subsided.

Then Jiang Hao felt himself slowly rising and falling, as if his whole body was in a calm pool of water, letting his body rise and fall at will.

Jiang Hao felt his thoughts slow down, as if his brain was wrapped in a protective film. He could hardly understand the sounds he heard, and it took him a long time to feel the heat emanating from the tens of thousands of sows around him. He had to twitch his nose several times and wait a long time before he could smell the milk and the fragrance emanating from the sows.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Hao's mind suddenly cleared, and his body stopped throbbing. Except for the still complete darkness in front of him, all his other senses returned. He could hear the breathing of the others, feel Yun Xinghe's arm in his right arm, and immediately smell the perfume on Yun Xinghe's body.

The airship's roof gradually opened, letting in light again, which was slightly dazzling. A cold wind blew in, taking away the stuffiness in the cabin, and Jiang Hao couldn't help but shiver.

"We have arrived at the 7865th boundary airship base. Thank you for boarding the Star-shaped shuttle airship. Please disembark as soon as the airship comes to a stop. Have a pleasant journey."

The airship was still in mid-air, rapidly descending. Snowflakes landed on my face and the back of my hands, bringing a biting chill. All around was a vast expanse of white snow and wind, obscuring the surrounding scenery.

The airship shuddered and finally landed on the snow-covered ground. Suddenly, a group of people ran out through the snowstorm. Some held up huge umbrellas, while others carried several pieces of white cloth. The leader, a middle-aged man of about forty, said, "Come on, guys, get down here quickly. Don't delay us from cleaning the airship."

Jiang Hao and the others quickly stood up from their seats and jumped out of the cabin. Seeing that there was still someone tied up in the cabin, Sun Zhi and Ling Feng hurriedly lifted the cowardly person off the airship seat.

The leader's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, I advise you not to go too far. Humans smuggling other humans, while not violating imperial law, is still unacceptable. Considering you are our clients, I will not make things difficult for you this time. Now, regardless of which realm you come from or which faction you belong to, please leave the base immediately, right now!"

Jiang Hao then realized that his lip movements and words did not match, and knew that this must be the simultaneous translation of the Lingxu system.

Jiang Hao was taken aback. Human smuggling? This leader had clearly misunderstood!

Seeing that he was cowardly and afraid of death, and was bound hand and foot with a rag stuffed in his mouth, Jiang Hao figured there was no need to keep him tied up. Since they had already arrived at their destination, there was no need to keep him bound any longer.

So he went over and removed the rag from his mouth. Just as he was about to untie the ropes binding him, he heard a whoosh as the cowardly man vomited a large amount of vomit.

Jiang Hao snapped the rope and took two steps to the side, saying, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. We're not smuggling. He's our partner. He has claustrophobia, so we tied him up."

The leader looked puzzled and asked, "What is claustrophobia? Does having it mean you have to be tied up?"

He turned to look at the cowardly and afraid-to-die man, as if asking a question. After vomiting, the cowardly man found that he could move his hands and feet again, and he scrambled to his feet and moved closer to Jiang Hao.

He knew they were now in a foreign land, and he dared not stray from the group. Jiang Hao was undoubtedly the leader of the group and certainly the strongest, so he tried to stay as close to Jiang Hao as possible.

The leader looked a bit embarrassed and scratched his head, saying, "Oh, I see. Um... sorry. Alright, guys, let's get out of here quickly. We need to hurry up and clean the airship."

With a wave of his hand, the leader signaled several people carrying white cloths to begin wiping the airship. Some wiped the seats, some the pedals, some the exterior of the hull, and some the interior; their coordinated efforts clearly demonstrated their professionalism.

"Oh, by the way, you're not very strong. You're probably here to dig for treasure, right? Although there aren't many ores and herbs on the outskirts right now, you can still find some if you look carefully. Remember, whatever you do, don't go in, especially into the forest to the north. Whatever you do, don't go in. Otherwise, you'll never come out again."

The group had already walked more than ten steps when they heard the leader's words of comfort coming from behind. Jiang Hao turned around and saw that the wind and snow had already covered his body; only his voice could be heard coming from the wind and snow behind him.

Jiang Hao shouted behind him, "Got it, thanks, uncle!"

With silence behind them, Jiang Hao and his group of ten headed outside. Yun Xinghe had the lowest attribute value and the worst physical condition. Even Jiang Hao found the wind and snow here biting, let alone Yun Xinghe.

The moment the airship opened, he had already put on the thick cotton coat that he had prepared in his backpack.

The place was like a cold storage room, the chill seeping into his cotton clothes, making him feel as if he were being pricked by tens of thousands of cold needles at the same time, causing him to shiver all over.

Finally, unable to hold back any longer, he said, "I... I said Zhu Lin... Zhu Lin, little girl, quickly... quickly give me some milk, I... I feel... I'm about to... die."

"I won't complain if there's milk," Yun Xinghe scoffed, raising a finger to create a transparent magical shield around him. His previously pale face flushed instantly, and his purplish lips regained color. A closer look revealed wisps of white steam rising from his forehead.

Finally, Yun Xinghe simply took off his thick cotton coat.

Jiang Hao then learned the name of the only beautiful woman in the group: Zhu Lin.

With her two-star attributes and white priest's robes, Zhu Lin was clearly no match for the cold. She rubbed her arms and cast a spell shield on herself. A blush appeared on her face, making the hearts of the men present flutter, as if the surrounding chill was nothing.

Zhu Lin rolled her eyes and said coldly, "Have you looked enough? If you keep looking, you'll freeze to death!"

The men quickly turned their heads away. But they hadn't gone far when some of them couldn't stand the cold anymore; this time, they were cowardly and afraid of dying.

Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised. Logically, with an invincible skill, even a coward should have been able to pass the two-star trial. How could his physique, as a warrior, be worse than that of the one-star archer, God of One Hand? Out of curiosity, Jiang Hao cast another detection spell on him.

Oh……

As expected, it didn't even have a one-star quality! What's even more ironic is its name: Qiu Si!
