After having a simple meal at the old village chief's house, the villager in charge of maintaining the teleportation array reluctantly took Carl and others to the location of the array.

They directly used a strange material to cover up the specific contents of the magic circle, making it impossible for Carl to see the runes on it, and unable to distinguish the rune numbers corresponding to the magic circle.

Seeing how secretive they were, Carl became more certain of his previous guess.

"Don't worry, we just want to send something home to let them know we're safe. You should be able to contact the merchants in this plane. We need them to help mail a package to the Green Heart City in the Eruden Plains on the main plane."

After that, Carl handed a videotape and a note with the address of the public teleportation array of Bixin City to the people in the village, asking them to help teleport to any plane merchant.

The level 8 mage breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Carl and the others would not operate the magic circle themselves.

After paying the postage to the other party, Carl and the others waited outside for a while, and then they saw the mage coming out wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Once the teleportation array becomes constant, it will be much easier to activate it without consuming additional spell slots to activate it.

However, the teleportation array can only be used for transmission within the plane, so Carl and his friends went to great lengths to hand over their own videotapes to the plane merchants for mailing.

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.

But despite this, he is already in his fifties.

And Nia, who had just reached adulthood, was one grade higher than him.

The gap between mages is sometimes even greater than the gap between humans and dogs.

After finally dealing with the matter, Carl and the others felt a little relieved. However, Iris was going to use Meng Ling to pass the message directly to Ashe and the others later, as a preparation for both scenarios.

In order to prevent the villagers from thinking too much, Carl and his friends moved directly into the house arranged for them by the village chief.

Many young people in this village go out for adventure, which causes the village's population to shrink significantly compared to its most prosperous period, leaving many vacant 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 mentioned this matter seemingly unintentionally.

Carl asked readily, "I wonder if anyone in the village knows how to use the compass and its principle? Tina and I lack sufficient navigation experience, so we don't quite understand it."

After hearing what Carl said, the villager was shocked.

"Then how did you find it back?"

After an awkward cough, Carl smiled and said, “With technology.”

Although he didn't understand what Karl meant, the villager nodded and agreed to find someone to teach Karl about this matter early the next morning.

The villagers who knew the secret of this floating island were eager for Carl and his companions to leave as soon as possible, so they agreed to this matter quite readily.

So the next morning, Carl dragged the reluctant Tina to learn the use and specific principles of the navigation compass.

…

In a sea of ​​clouds more than ten kilometers away from the floating island, a sky pirate whose half body had been mechanized was looking at the huge spaceship floating not far from the floating island with a solemn expression.

Not to mention the material itself, the size alone is enough to scare people away.

Once its speed increases, even without any fire attack, its own impact will cause a crushing effect.

"What a joke! Could it be that there is a genius machinist in the village? Impossible! The village simply does not have the resources to train such a talent, and it cannot produce so much cloud iron to build this huge airship!"

Observing the situation on the floating island through a telescope, the machinist's face showed obvious jealousy and resentment.

But as he saw more and more details of the spacecraft, his resentment and jealousy gradually turned into despair and helplessness.

"The owner of this airship is definitely not a villager, but why is he here? Could it be that he knows the clue that the Giant King's treasure is hidden in the village, so he came here?"

Putting down the telescope, the unknown mechanic clenched his fists, feeling quite tormented.

The mechanical parts embedded in his flesh made his expression quite ferocious at this moment. His hatred for that 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. Once that huge airship leaves, we will capture that floating island!"

"yes!"

The pirates under his command saluted in a formal manner, 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.

The idea is almost identical to the mechanical spider tanks that Carl left in Storm Bay, except that Carl's work has better protection, and the operator can hide in the cab, while these have to expose half of their bodies to the outside. If they encounter a sharpshooter, they will basically die.

But despite this, many sky pirates still look proud when flying these constructs.

Of course, there were also some sky pirates who, when they drove out in their constructs, looked at the machine master sky pirates with rather vicious eyes.

It is not difficult to guess what they are thinking. They just want to kill the machine master Sky Pirate and take these constructs for themselves.

However, the spirit of the construct obeys orders according to the level of authority granted by the creator. Most of these sky pirates are non-spellcasters and have no ability to modify their authority.

If they launched a rebellion without authorization, the machine master Sky Pirate would just give the order and the constructs under him would tear them down and trample 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 revealed their intentions slightly and then restrained themselves again.

At the bow of the flagship airship, the mechanical engineer Sky Pirate narrowed his eyes slightly and was in a bad mood.

Of course he knew what those guys were up to, but if he wanted these professionals to work for him, he had to endure this.

"If I could build that kind of airship... No! As long as I can have it, I would be willing to sacrifice all my men!"

Looking at the spaceship in the distance, the mechanical master Sky Pirate shouted this deep in his heart.
