the only savior

Chapter 926 Air Crisis
There is still a short time before Fengpeng's departure.

Zhang Xiaoman did not sit alone in the hotel and waited, but stood on the third deck, admiring the surrounding environment.

Probably because there is no industrial pollution, the air and plants in this world are very clean.

The crisp green color combined with this wide grassland will make people feel refreshed when they see it.

Fengpeng's volume is very large, and the blue whale, the largest animal on the water blue planet, is just like a pocket toy in front of it.

Zhang Xiaoman took a visual inspection, this guy's body length alone may have reached nearly 50 meters, and his wingspan was even more exaggerated.

If it flew over the city, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it would block out the sky.

Logically speaking, with such a huge body, it would be difficult to fly without relying on magic power.

But Fengpeng is not a bird in the ordinary sense. It is said that this kind of creature has the blood of this part of the sub-dragon, which can be seen from their appearance.

Although Fengpeng has the word Peng in its name, its appearance is far from that of an ordinary bird.

Its back is very wide, with six legs, lying on the ground like a huge lizard.

What amazes Zhang Xiaoman the most is that this creature has 24 pairs of wings, which are distributed on both sides of the body like the wings of an airplane.

On weekdays, when they are active on the ground, they will fold their wings to protect their backs like an insect's carapace.

Once it needs to fly, the 24 pairs of wings will stretch out. The width of the largest wing reaches nearly 100 meters, and the width of the two sides together is more than 200 meters.

Now Zhang Xiaoman finally understood why the people here built such a huge pasture specially for it.

With such a huge volume, even if it were a smaller place, it would not be able to accommodate its activities at all.

Among other things, the airflow caused by the flapping of those wings alone would probably tear the surrounding buildings apart.

It's just a pity that although this kind of Fengpeng is huge in size, their level is not high, only the level of mid-level monsters.

Their huge bodies limit their reaction and speed, and they cannot fight in the air at all, and they don't have much magic power, so they can only bury their heads and run for their lives when encountering enemies.

But in any case, their size is here after all. Even if the magic power in their bodies is limited, not all creatures can be bullied.

Ordinary flying monsters probably wouldn't dare to approach Fengpeng when they saw Fengpeng's size, and the only ones who could be called natural enemies were those sub-dragon species and real giant dragons.

At this moment, the passengers for this trip have already taken their seats one after another.

The passenger capacity of Fengpeng is quite considerable, about 200-300 people can be carried at a time.

Of course, if this figure is converted to the Star Alliance's spaceship of the same size, it will appear a bit low.

After all, the flight methods and civilization levels of the two are different. One is the dark spirit mechanical technology, and the other is pure biological load, and the efficiency is not the same.

These passengers are mainly divided into three parts.

The first part is merchants and mercenaries like the Pillay caravan, and they are also the largest group of people.

The other part is some rich and rich people, they go to the royal city with their own goals, and Fengpeng naturally becomes the most convenient means of transportation.

As for the last part, there are some plainly dressed civilians.

They have to spend a lot of money to take this expensive means of transportation either for reasons of study or work.

Zhang Xiaoman met a lot of young children there, and according to Pillay's explanation, they all went to Tarata to enroll in the Topaz Academy of Magic and Martial Arts.

Every year when the God's Advent Festival is approaching, it is also the day when Wangcheng, a well-known magic and martial arts academy, recruits students for the new year.

Those who can pass will be lucky enough to study in this institution in the coming year, which will completely change their lives.

But this kind of enrollment is also subject to strict conditions. To put it simply, whether they can pass or not depends on their talents and qualifications in the end.

"Oh? What if they can't pass the test? Riding Fengpeng is not cheap, so that gold coin should be a big burden for them, right?"

Zhang Xiaoman looked at the crowd below and asked.

On the side, Pillai stood a little behind half a body, and explained with a slightly emotional tone:
"If they can't pass the assessment, there is a high probability that they will stay there and find a job or something... Tarata is too far away from here, and it is almost impossible for them to come back by means other than Fengpeng... "

Zhang Xiaoman understood, it turned out that this was a one-way ticket with no turning back, no wonder the people below were all crying.

If these children are lucky enough to be selected by the college, they should be able to earn money and come back after a few years of success in their studies.

But if you are unlucky and don't have the corresponding qualifications, then you can only find a job on the spot to support yourself first.

As for whether there will be a chance to spend another gold coin back in the future, that's another matter.

He sighed, it seems that every world is the same, and it is the ordinary people who live at the bottom who can really experience the suffering in this world.

After waiting for a while, the parents who came up to see them off all left the deck reluctantly, and then the animal trainer informed everyone that Feng Peng was about to take off.

"Buzz!"

A flash of light flashed, and a light blue shield enveloped the area of ​​the hotel. It was the mage who accompanied him this time.

As if it was a signal, the huge monster under everyone's feet also responded at this moment.

I saw its 24 pairs of wings spread out one after another and began to flap powerfully.

The grass on the surrounding lawn poured towards the two sides with it as the center, and the animal trainers at the domestication site had already retreated hundreds of meters away.

But even so, everyone needs to firmly hold on to the pillars around them, otherwise they will be blown down by the strong wind if they are not careful.

Zhang Xiaoman was inside the barrier, but he didn't feel anything unusual.

Because Fengpeng is too big, the process of taking off is a bit slow, and everyone on its back also felt relatively large bumps.

Fortunately, after this super-large monster really soared in the sky, the bumps gradually became smaller and finally stabilized.

All the passengers came to the edge of the deck full of curiosity, watching the outside scene through the enchantment cast by the middle-level mage.

"Cut, a bunch of bumpkins..."

Near the hotel, several gorgeously dressed men and women cast contemptuous glances at the group of people.

They all stood far away from the group of civilians, as if they would catch some kind of infectious disease if they were closer.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoman secretly thought it was funny.

He could feel that these people also wanted to see the scenery outside, but they were all reserved and unwilling to leave the vicinity of the hotel.

It seems that once you look at it in the past, you will appear to be the same as the group of civilians, making others think that you have also never seen the world.

Zhang Xiaoman shook his head, turned around and went back to practice in the hotel.

For him, such high-altitude trips have been experienced countless times, and he has long lost interest in admiring the beautiful scenery.

If you have this time, you might as well improve your dark spirit power and turn to all the time to practice.

About two hours passed in such a flight, and the passengers outside gradually calmed down from their initial enthusiasm, and went back to their hotel rooms.

Considering the distance, the facilities in these hotels are relatively simple, and there is not even a bed in an ordinary room.

Two hours is almost half of the journey. In order to save space, there is really no need to decorate the place too well.

The room Zhang Xiaoman was in was one of the few places that had a bed, and he was sitting cross-legged on the big soft bed at the moment, running the skill of drowning the sky in his body.

Because he used the unprecedented method of self-cultivation, he can only rely on the Shutianjue to accumulate his own upper limit of dark energy. It is still relatively difficult to really rely on this to achieve a breakthrough in the realm.

Zhang Xiaoman felt that he seemed to have reached a bottleneck.

Although the accumulation of dark energy is still the same as before, there is no change, and it only needs to be improved step by step.

But his use of dark energy in the new realm began to become less and less.

Most of the books that can be preserved in the library pavilion in Tianyuanzong are low-level exercises, and the middle and high-level ones are basically stored in jade slips.

But after this big change in the world, the jade slips were invalidated one after another, so many good exercises were also lost.

If you want to have new skills to use, you can either extract them through the system or develop them yourself.

But the difficulty of his own research and development is very high, plus he is in a different world now, how can he calm down and study it carefully.

When Zhang Xiaoman was practicing a new move, he suddenly heard some commotion coming from outside the hotel room, followed by a violent shaking, causing the things in the room to slide off the storage table and spilled all over the floor.

"Orc! It's an orc wind cavalry!!"

"Help! Run! Run! Don't get in my way!!"

"Oh my god! Why do you encounter orc wind cavalry here! This is the territory of the Kingdom of Edron!"

"..."

A series of cries came from all directions, Zhang Xiaoman opened his eyes, and looked outside with the Spirit Vision of Luck.

I saw that in the sky, there were about 300 figures exuding dark spiritual power following behind me and the others. From time to time, I could observe that they would project one or two attacks towards here, hitting the wind barrier buzzing.

These guys flew very fast and were very flexible. They formed a formation in front, back, left, and right, and easily surrounded the Fengpeng in the middle.

But perhaps because they were concerned about the other party's huge size, they did not approach rashly, but continued to consume from a distance.

"boom!!"

The door was violently knocked open, and several panicked figures ran in.

These people seemed to be passengers downstairs, and they may have been panicked after being frightened, and even hid in his room.

Glancing at these people, Zhang Xiaoman didn't intend to argue with them, but stood up slowly, and walked out against the crowd that would come in from time to time.

Xu was afraid of being affected by the fighting outside. After he left, these people quickly closed the door, and then put a few thick pieces of furniture behind them, acting like a turtle.

Outside, the battle between the Fengpeng Hotel and the recruited wind cavalry has begun.

One of the two mages has been blessing the barrier of the wind, so that when the barrier disappears, the lives of the passengers in the hotel will be threatened.

"Boom boom boom!!"

The remaining mage kept throwing fireballs towards the back on the deck, trying to stop the pursuit of the orcs.

After Zhang Xiaoman came outside, he finally saw the faces of these orcs clearly for the first time.

I saw that their whole body was covered by a layer of short green hair, with a big bloody mouth and two palms full of claws.

He had seen it in books before, but this time he finally saw it alive. It turned out that it was an orc.

Compared with the appearance of ordinary people, those guys are as ugly as beasts.

However, although they are ugly, they are still very strong in terms of strength, especially this kind of air encirclement operation, which is almost only a short time, and there is already a tendency to break in.

"Your Excellency Polar Star!"

At the corner, a tall and thin figure ran over, but it was Pillai, the captain of the caravan.

"Hoohoo~Your Majesty Pole Star, are you okay~We were attacked by the beast clan, my God, this is really terrible!"

Pillay's face looked bewildered, and he quickly told what he saw when it happened just now.

In fact, it is not necessary for him to describe it, Zhang Xiaoman has already seen the current situation clearly through the situation at the scene.

What shocked and confused him and everyone else was why the orc kingdom, thousands of kilometers away, would suddenly send wind cavalry here.

Do you know that although the various ethnic groups on the mainland have been fighting openly and secretly, at least on the surface they still maintain peace?

But now the orcs ignored the armistice agreement at all, and directly sent wind cavalry into the territory of the human race, and even launched an attack on the people who had been full of passengers.

This is the opponent wanting to declare war!
Pillay's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his mind was blank now, and the technology ran to the safest place he thought was the first time he was attacked.

"Boom boom boom!"

It was in such a short time that the outer barrier finally couldn't withstand the bombing of the orcs, and suddenly it turned into pieces of light and shattered.

All of a sudden, a strong wind poured into the guest house, blowing all the furniture inside to this side, and some even fell apart directly because of this.
