Chapter 430: Chapter 400 Floating Airship Carrying Passengers (Long Chapter)_3
The limited passenger capacity, the initial batch of only three hundred spots, surprisingly wasnât filled up.
The floating airship had its final five minutes before departure.
He Yuanhang hesitated for a moment and finally took a firm step, walking toward the boarding ramp.
âŠ
In the end, the available three hundred passenger slots werenât completely filled.
He Yuanhang scanned the group that had boarded the floating airship, approximately two hundred twenty to thirty people. He spotted familiar faces such as Fang Qiang, Zhou Jianhong, and Chen Feng.
There were probably about a dozen adventure groups, along with a few individual adventurers.
Inside the cabin of the floating airship, there were ample seats, even including private compartmentsâbut the compartments, panoramic cabins, and other VIP rooms were temporarily unavailable.
Most adventurers remained on deck.
Glancing at the receding ethereal white clouds, it brought a sense of refreshment, even the top Flying Series ability users rarely dared to fly at such high altitudes.
He Yuanhang tightly gripped the handrails at the edge of the deck, his legs felt a bit weak at this moment, and he didnât dare to lean out and look.
âBrother Qiang, the safety of the floating airship should be secured, right?â
When boarding, he was full of decisive confidence, but now, unable to see the ground and high up thousands of meters in the sky, a chill went down his spine, what ifâŠ
Fang Qiang pondered for a while, ââŠIt should be?â
He Yuanhang grew even more worried.
Just then, Chen Feng approached, patted his shoulder, and his confident smile eased He Yuanhang quite a bit.
âDonât worry, even if something were to happen to the floating airship, I can fly, so no worries.â
He Yuanhang: ââŠâ
Fang Qiang also patted his shoulder, âRight, relax, even if something happens to the floating airship, I⊠canât be killed by a fall, so no worries.â
He Yuanhang: ââŠâ
He could only avert his gaze and look toward the patrolling Green Shadow Awakeners on the deck of the floating airship. He heard they were part of a newly formed Corp called the Air Soldiers⊠So the full name is âAircrew Combat Corpsâ?
He Yuanhang wasnât sure but, in this cold winter, only these Air Soldiers Awakeners could provide him a shred of warmth.
âŠ
It had only been three to five minutes since ascending to high altitude when a mass of dark, Flying Demonized Beasts appeared in the adventurersâ field of vision.
The alarm of the floating airship sounded just in time.
Some adventurers began to panic.
As a leading figure, Fang Qiang remained composed, and experts like Chen Feng also kept their expressions unchanged.
However, weapons were already drawn, (Combat) Sabers, and Longswords grasped in hands.
âAdventurers with long-range attack capabilities should strike first, everyone else shouldnât be complacent. The quality of the floating airship should be guaranteed, the Demonized Beasts canât destroy it, but there will probably be many flying aboard. For our safety, I hope everyone can work together to resist the impact of the Flying Demonized BeastsâŠâ
Gradually, other adventurers calmed down.
Fang Qiang saw the Air Soldiers Awakeners with their weapons drawn, but they seemed unconcerned, still chatting away.
âDo they have that much faith in the floating airship?â
Click, click, clickâEnergy-gathering Cannons extended from various parts of the airship, exposing their dark muzzles.
In less than a second, countless concentrated beams of Source Power were fired from the cannons, instantaneously, the dark mass of Flying Demonized Beasts fell like rain, numerous bodies dropping from the sky.
In the blink of an eye, they were sparse.
The adventurers ready to act were stunned, eyes widening.
So this isnât just a transport ship but a Warship?!
But the Flying Demonized Beasts were fast, by the time they snapped out of it, they had already reached the floating airship, pecking, wing attacks, Wind Blades, and so forth fell, and only when the adventurers collected themselves to face the onslaught did they suddenly discover that all attacks were blocked by a shield that materialized outside the floating airship.
Not even a tiny ripple stirred.
âSo war has entered the era of energy shields?â
âAm I unknowingly becoming disconnected from the world?â
âHas the Sanctuary become sovereign of the skies?â
The pride of being top adventurers vanished in an instant.
Itâs all about Green Shadow dad being impressive!
In the next moment, adventurers saw the previously easy-going Air Soldiers Awakeners suddenly fly out beyond the deck, swiftly dealing with the remaining Demonized Beasts, and even had time to precisely extract Source Crystals from the skulls of the Demonized Beasts in mid-air⊠this proficiency clearly came from rigorous training.
The question is, where did all these flying Awakeners come from??!
