Chapter 213 050: Floating Island

"Just like... just like."

Luo Xi took over the conversation: "Upstarts."

Richard nodded. "Yes, that's a very vivid description. They are nouveau riche, but they are nouveau riche in the wizarding world."

Strictly speaking, the Best family is indeed a nouveau riche family among the many wizarding families in the South Coast Wizarding Domain.

Because compared to other wizard families, their family's inheritance time is the shortest. It seems that it has been less than three thousand years from its establishment to the present.

Three thousand years is definitely an ancient heritage in the human world, but it is very common in the wizarding world.

“Ding! Ding! Ding!”

At this moment, a clear bell sounded.

Luo Xi raised an eyebrow: "Is this an alarm? Is something dangerous going to happen?"

Such bell sounds are common alarms on airships. They are usually sounded when danger is approaching, but the sound is not cramped, which means the danger level is not high. The basic meaning is to notify the crew to be careful and return to the cabin. Later, there should be alchemical puppets and transformation knights coming to clear the area.

Richard said, "We are about to pass through the floating island area. Harpies may appear in these places. As usual, the Voyage will ask us to be careful."

Luo Xi was surprised and asked: "Harpy?"

He had read in a book that this was a kind of magical creature that lived in the air. Its strength was at the level of mid- and high-level wizards, and some powerful individuals could even grow to the level of sages.

Richard asked, "How's it going? Interested?"

Luo Xi said hesitantly: "I do want to go and see it."

The harpy is a creature of the sky world, and it is rare to see it on land.

"But this alarm calls us back to the cabin"

In the distance, one could see alchemical puppets and transformation knights driving the passengers on the airship around, and the passengers who had originally gathered in the observation restaurant also returned to the cabin one after another.

Richard glanced over there and said nonchalantly, "What are you afraid of? When we were little, our parents told us to go back to bed when it got dark. Does that mean everyone has to be a good kid? Some rules can be broken, right?"

It seems that he is not an honest guy.

Richard then urged, "Let's go to the observation deck at the stern. I know there is an independent area there. The patrolling alchemy puppets and transformation knights will not go there. We can stay there and watch carefully."

All right.

Luo Xi admitted that Richard persuaded him.

He was not a person who would waste time. He glanced back and nodded and said cheerfully, "Then we have to hurry. Those iron lumps and modified humans are coming."

Following Richard across the deck towards the stern, the two soon arrived at the observation deck at the stern. Next to the observation deck was a utility room filled with wooden barrels, brooms and other miscellaneous items. After moving all the items away, a hidden small door appeared at the back. After coming out of this small door, there was a staircase outside. After climbing up the stairs, there was actually a hidden observation deck.

After climbing up the stairs, Luo Xi asked Richard, who was leading the way skillfully, in surprise: "How did you know this place?"

This maze-like route couldn't have been found by chance while wandering around, right? Richard said, "This boat was built by my family."

Luo Xi: “.”

Well, is this the hidden power of the rich second generation? I have learned it, I have learned it...

There were a few chairs scattered around next to the observation deck. Luo Xi and Richard pulled two chairs over and sat down to watch.

The clouds rolled slowly, and the airship broke through layer after layer of clouds and flew slowly forward. The roar of the propellers kept turning and echoed throughout the sky at an altitude of ten thousand meters.

After flying forward for a few minutes, a different scenery finally appeared behind the clouds in front. It was green.

The first thing that comes into view is the green trees, with tall trunks, emerald green leaves and vines wrapped around the trunks, which seem very abrupt at this altitude of ten thousand meters.

As we got closer, the green in front quickly spread out in all directions, and it looked like a forest.

Rows of trees, lush green grass, singing birds and fragrant flowers create a peaceful and tranquil environment.

The view continued to expand, and more scenery appeared outside the forest, including mountains, rivers, lakes, etc.

When he got closer, Luo Xi finally saw the whole picture of the scene in front of him. It was clearly an island, an island floating in the air.

It was like a piece of land was forcibly pulled up from the ground and flying into the air, it was very spectacular.

Richard said: "This is the floating island."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Luo Xi raised his eyebrows and observed the island in front of him with a focused expression.

Floating islands are an important part of the sky world. Like the creatures in the sky world, they also have a unique organ called "floating", which allows them to float in the air for a long time and cannot descend to the ground.

They are land, but not land. Strictly speaking, they are land in the sky.

Some of the atmospheric creatures living in the aerial world will occasionally come to these places to live. Since they have the same floating ability as the atmospheric creatures, these atmospheric creatures will not be affected if they fall on such aerial land.

So there are some ecological cycles going on here, for example, harpies like to nest in places like this.

“Boom!”

The roar of the propellers continued to sound, and the airship flew very fast, passing through the floating island in just a few minutes.

However, after this floating island, several more floating islands appeared in front. Up, down, left and right, there were such islands all around. It seemed like an airspace composed of islands. The big ones were several kilometers long, the small ones were hundreds of meters long, and there were even some large rocks with a diameter of several meters.

“So many floating islands!”

Richard said: "Floating islands are not rare in the sky world. They are just like the atmospheric creatures here. They can be found everywhere. It's just that they usually float tens of thousands of meters in the sky and we can't see them."

Luo Xi asked curiously: "Which floating island will the sky city be in?"

The Castle in the Sky was part of the ancient wizard dynasty Sigrama, a powerful wizard organization at the time, comparable in status to top wizard organizations like Fran today.

However, after the war ended, the Sky City was submerged in the long river of history along with the fall of the Sigrama Dynasty.

"Who knows?"

Richard looked at the islands ahead and said, "These islands have been searched everywhere. If they were really that easy to find, it wouldn't have troubled our wizarding world for so long."
