Looking at the worried Iris, Karl asked, "What's wrong?"

As a companion, he felt he had an obligation to care about the other person's health.

Looking up at Carl, Elise took a deep breath.

“I felt like my spiritual connection with my dream spirit had been severed.

At first I thought it was because Eilistraee didn’t find me through the mental connection in time after the space transfer, but now it seems that it might be because of the Eternal Furnace.

The force field around the Eternal Crucible not only prohibits teleportation, but also weakens the relevant power of the dream world."

With her hands covering her chest, Iris looked as if she had suddenly lost the pillar of the family. Her expression became much weaker, and she looked like a widow on top of being a young woman.

However, Carl paid no attention to the beauty of the young woman in front of him. Instead, he asked an academic question.

"By the way, will the Li Meng people feel insecure when they lose their spiritual connection with the dream spirit?"

Iris is a rare Limeng drow that only appears once every few hundred years. However, apart from her longer lifespan, her other abilities are actually similar to those of the Limeng people.

Hearing this, she glanced at Karl with some resentment, and then replied: “Yes, I feel like I have lost my soul mate now, and I feel uneasy and panicked.”

With a soft "tsk", Karl lowered his head and drank a sip of soup, raising his eyebrows.

"Okay, let's eat first. We have enough time to study those abnormal conditions."

After swallowing the soup in his mouth, Carl started to tear into the steak while speaking vaguely.

Seeing Carl like this, Iris didn't know what to say and had to eat with him.

After finishing his meal, Carl tried to study the situation outside the truck, when he suddenly noticed a white cloud approaching the truck in front.

Because of the lack of reference, Carl forgot that the truck was still sliding after he released control, so now it was not the clouds approaching the truck, but the truck rushing towards the clouds.

Traveling through the sea of ​​clouds is a rare experience for most people, so Carl did not stop it and let the truck and the clouds collide with each other.

Yes, they collided! "Boom!"

When the front of the truck came into contact with the seemingly soft cloud, suddenly, Carl and the others flew straight towards the front of the truck.

The powerful inertia almost made them rush out of the window, but fortunately, the truck's sliding speed was slowly decreasing due to wind resistance and other reasons, so Carl and the others were just thrown around and did not suffer irreparable injuries.

"What the f*ck is this!"

Staggering to his feet, Carl quickly cast two healing spells on Iris, who was the most seriously injured, and then cast several repair spells on Midris, finally stabilizing the injuries of both of them.

Nia, who helped Carl stand up and whose life was saved by her own robe, said in disbelief: "Why did the cloud collide with the truck? Is this a cloud unique to the air elemental plane? But why have I never heard of it before!"

Hope: "It seems that this plane is not as safe as we thought before. Who will go outside with me to see what this thing is?"

Looking around, Carl stepped forward without hesitation.

Putting on the power armor again, Carl opened the door and flew out of the truck holding Hope.

Following the cloud all the way up, the two were surprised to find that the cloud seemed to be stagnant and as solid as rock.

Hope briefly turned into an eagle, then adjusted the direction of his gravity above the clouds.

“This cloud is so magical!”

Stepping on the solid cloud, Hope felt like he had discovered a new world, and he even rolled over on the cloud.

Not all of this cloud is hard; some parts are still soft, like cotton.

…

At the same time, on a floating island not known how far away from Carl and his companions, some humans and wind elementals walked out of their homes and began a busy day.

This floating island is a rare place that is not controlled by wind giants or any other creatures. The people on the island have a common ancestor - a group of mages who came to the elemental plane of air to conduct research.

However, apart from this origin, the people on the island know little about the rest.

Although most of them embarked on the path of magicians, due to their lack of talent and limited abilities, they lived on this relatively large floating island all their lives and never left.

The energy of the Elemental Plane of Air influenced them, causing wind elementals to gradually emerge among their descendants.

These children who are born with a yearning for freedom are the main force for the Floating Island to contact the outside world. Every Wind Elemental is like an unruly breeze, eager to see everything outside.

On a flat ground about a few kilometers away from the edge of the floating island, there is a two-story building.

As more and more pedestrians appeared on the street, the window on the second floor was suddenly pushed open by a pair of blue and white arms.

A girl who looked to be in her teens, with a youthful look on her face, took a deep breath and said with emotion:

"Uh~ah! Today is another calm day!"

"Tina! Why are you up so late again? Even though your parents are out on an adventure, you can't slack off!"

"I know, uncle! Really, it's okay for you guys to let me sleep in for a bit, but one day I'm going to leave this island, and then hide in a deserted corner and sleep till the end of time!"

After replying to the figure below, the girl of the Wind Elemental named Tina's face immediately fell when she saw the other party turn around and leave, and then she muttered with some dissatisfaction.

Turning back into the room, she picked up a huge book that was almost as tall as herself, and flipped to page six.

The pages filled with giant runes contain content that cannot be easily deciphered. The spell effects of those who know words are ineffective against the giant runes, which contain powerful power.

Tina found the place where she had translated before with familiarity, put the books in order, and then picked up a notebook that fit her body shape from the desk.

"Huh~, the giants' stuff is really hard to understand. They say that if you meet the sun in a dream, you will get enlightenment and find the king. Hieroglyphics are really too difficult to learn!"

Holding the pen, the pretty girl scratched her hair and continued to interpret the book in front of her.

The girl's parents were also wind elementals. When she was very young, they left the floating island and went out on adventures.

In the entire ten years, this irresponsible couple only came back three times.

If it weren't for the occasional message from her parents through the communication stone at home, Tina would have even wondered if they had been murdered.

This book was left by her ancestors. Before Tina started her research, her ancestors deciphered the contents of the first five pages.

From the beginning of her research till now, she has only cracked less than half a page.

Not every complicated giant rune has a corresponding record. Most of the runes are quite unfamiliar to Tina. The most important thing is that giant runes often have multiple meanings. This makes Tina always doubt whether the first few pages translated by her ancestors are reliable.

Just when she was getting a little impatient studying the runes, there was a knock on the door downstairs.

Without any hesitation, Tina went downstairs in her clothes.

"Hey! Little Tina, help auntie fix this machine. My old man broke it last night!"

The first floor of Tina's house is a shop filled with the smell of lubricants and metal.

Soon after she started working as a mechanic, she renovated the first floor into its current form, so that she could practice her profession and earn some money.

"Okay! Auntie, let me see where it's broken. Hmm~, it's not a big problem. It can be fixed with a few repairs!"

After a quick inspection of the machine handed over by the other party, Tina quickly found the cause of the machine's damage and then repaired it using repair techniques.

The lady paid the money happily, then picked up the machine and left.

"Phew~, I'm one step closer to saving enough money to buy materials. Things are getting better!"

Humming an unknown tune, Tina opened the door to the basement and walked down the stairs.

In the dim basement, the skeleton of a glider stood quietly.

Its parts are polished to a shine, and it looks like the person who made it took great care of it.

Looking at this thing, Tina put her hands on her waist and said to herself: "Just wait and see, when I save enough money, I will take it out for adventure!"

Walking into the skeleton of the glider, Tina rubbed the metal bracket with her little face which was glowing blue and white, as if she had seen the scene where the future great adventurer Tina found the treasure and then returned home in glory.

Just as I was smiling foolishly, the sound of someone pushing the door open upstairs rang again.

"Tina! The cloud iron has arrived! And this time they also gave us two cubic meters of cloud cotton as a gift! Come and take a look!"

Hearing the shouting from upstairs, Tina immediately wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and ran upstairs.

In the small shop on the first floor, a muscular man was standing by the door, holding something in his hand that looked like a cloud but was extremely hard.

If Carl and the others were here, they would definitely be able to recognize that this was the strange thing that caused their car accident.

"Oh! The quality of this Yuntie is quite good! The mining team on the island could actually find such a good thing!"

Looking at the "Yuntie" in the other's arms with shining eyes, Tina was about to pick him up and rub him, but suddenly remembered that he belonged to someone else.

"Wow~, I still lack some money to buy them, so, uncle, do you have any easy and profitable jobs to recommend to me?"

Hearing what Tina said, the middle-aged strong man who came to inform her rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"I'd like to find a job like this! But you can go ask the mining team if they can take you with them to mine. If you're a miner, you only need to hand over 30% of what you collect to them, and you can get these things for free."

Hearing the other party's suggestion, Tina's eyes turned and seemed to be interested.
