Chapter 268 It turns out to be the Great Technician

After taking care of the golem that threw corpses on the island, the battle came to an end.

Most of the high-level undead creatures were either destroyed by the Crusaders or chose to run away.

Undead creatures will not be afraid, but the intelligent part will choose to retreat. Only low-level skeleton soldiers and ghouls will pounce on the living when they see them.

The cult established a temple on the ground and began to hold rituals, preparing to completely purify the stagnant air of death in this place.If you don't do this, many undead creatures will be born here after a while.

After all, there is no shortage of corpses or wronged souls in Qianshui City. As long as the aura of death is still above the threshold, undead creatures will continue to be produced here.

It can be said that Lich Elzam chose a good place to gather his undead army.

The only problem with this location is that it happens to block the most important trade artery, so the Crusaders gathered very quickly.

In short, the whole day's battle was almost over, and Wang and the members of the rescue team who came to rescue him also returned to the island by airship.

As soon as he got off the airship, Elizabeth bumped into him and buried her face in his arms: "I'm worried to death!"

The king gently stroked Elizabeth's silver hair: "Don't worry, I'm very lucky. And there are guards with swords around me."

"The one you brought down is Nini, and I wouldn't be so worried about Xiaobai." Elizabeth murmured in a low voice.

Xiaobai looked at Wang and Elizabeth, then turned to ask Rosalie next to him: "They haven't made it yet, have they? Why does the conversation sound like they have made it?"

Rosalie smiled and said: "You can't do it either. The conversation between you two makes you look like an old couple."

Xiaobai: "Ah, we are familiar with riding each other, this doesn't count."

At this moment, Nini pointed to the west and said, "So beautiful."

Everyone looked to the west and found that half of the sky was dyed red, and the clouds were like wildfires in the sky.

Wang: "This is generally called Huoshaoyun, and the principle of its formation is... Why are you pinching me?"

He looked at Elizabeth beside him in surprise.

Elizabeth: “Feel with your heart.”

Wang: "I know this scene has great visual impact and aesthetic significance..."

Elizabeth: "If you could feel this beauty instead of analyzing its aesthetic meaning, maybe it would be of great help to you when you cast illusion spells?"

Wang suddenly realized: "Oh, that's it. Let me feel it."

He closed his mouth and looked at Huo Shaoyun.

Elizabeth also looked to the west, and all the members of the rescue team just enjoyed the rare sunset view.

the next day.

As soon as Wang came to the ground from the central control room of the floating city, he found Hashir from the Pelican Gang and several senior cadres waiting for him.

Wang: "What's wrong? What's going on?"

Hashir: "The Crusaders are preparing to rebuild Shallow Water City and restore shipping."

Wang: "So this important shipping node is now controlled by Lancelot's order. There will definitely be more Lancelot believers on the mainland. The church must be very happy."

When he said this, he still had a relaxed tone that had nothing to do with him, but Rosalie, who came up with him, had already realized something and looked at Hahir seriously.

Hashir hesitated for a moment, then said: "That's right. In order to restore shipping in Qianshui City, the Crusaders need experienced pilots and channel dredgers. Our Pelican Gang happens to have these two talents."

"Are you going to package these talents and sell them to the church?" Wang said with a relaxed look, and then he realized something was wrong, "Wait a minute, you are not going to get off the ship... I mean, get off the island, right?"

Hashir: "Not everyone wants to go to the island, but some people prefer ordinary life to living on the legendary floating island. Besides, the church charges a high price."

King: "We need an army to fight against the cult, you are leaving now..."

"The lizard people may be able to form an army, but we can't. We are just a group of ordinary people. The good news is that the Lancelot Church is ready to send a team of knights to participate in your rescue operation." Grandma Hasil smiled, "As an army , they can hit more than us."

Wang: "How many people are preparing to leave the island?"

Hashir: "There are about 600 people who are ready to stay. They are all young couples who are tired of Qianshui City and want to find a new life."

Wang lowered his head and counted his fingers: "Huh? Isn't this the same as getting rid of a lot of old, weak, sick and disabled people?"

Hashir: "Ah, that's right, the old, weak, sick and disabled like me will be removed."

Rosalie: "And if there are only 600 people, the supply of food and water can be greatly reduced. Our burden is suddenly lighter, and we have also replaced a knight team."

Wang glanced at Rosalie: "So you concluded that we also made money?"

Rosalie was a little embarrassed to speak so bluntly, so she glanced at Hasiel and then nodded: "Yes, we made a profit. There were many children among the survivors before, but in fact they were pure burdens."

Wang: "Okay, then... congratulations on returning home."

As he spoke, he extended his hand to Hahir.

Hahir smiled and took the king's hand.

After the handshake ended, the old lady turned around, waved to everyone in the Pelican Gang, and left with a group of people.

Wang: "Let's go to the church and see how strong the remaining knight team is."

"In addition to the knight team," Gaines's voice floated from the side, "there will also be some new residents on the island. Such as the dwarf craftsmen."

The king turned to look at the dwarf bard: "Are the craftsmen here?"

"We'll arrive today. I'll probably take the same boat as the priest stationed on the floating island by the religious order."

Wang: "How do you know?"

Gaines smiled: "I am a bard, and providing intelligence is one of my duties. If you don't believe me, you can ask the drow in your team. She sneaks around all day long to spy on the situation."

Wang looked around and couldn't find Marika.

Wang: "No need to ask. Once the dwarf craftsmen come, they can lay out the power system on the island." Gaines: "But most of them don't have lightning cores. How are you going to generate electricity?"

Wang smiled and took out two gravity balls from the dimensional bag. One was recovered when he encountered the attack by the Arcane Federation, and the other was recovered from another colossus the next day.

Gaines frowned: "Can this generate electricity?"

Wang: "They can't, but they will cause abnormalities in the planet's magnetic field and create opportunities to cut magnetic lines of induction. Do you have any long metal pieces on your body?"

"Can I use a lute pick?" Gaines raised his hand, holding the pick between his index finger and thumb.

Wang: "Okay, just hold it like this and don't let go."

As he spoke, he squatted down and placed one of the gravity cores near Gaines' pick.

The next moment Gaines screamed, and his whole body was thrown far away due to the sudden twitching of his joints.

Flint laughed loudly: "That's right, that's it!"

Wang: "Stop laughing, treat him quickly, he was badly electrocuted."

"Kaylin's belly button!" The shorty used these words to activate the healing technique, directing the soft holy light into Gaines, who was already foaming at the mouth.

Gaines, who came back to life a few seconds later, sat up and stared at the gravity core in the king's hand with wide eyes: "Torag's horn! There is really electricity! How did this happen? Is it some kind of permanent magic?"

Wang: "It's not magic, it's science. Although this gravitational core is quite magical, in general, it's still more scientific. When your compatriots arrive, I will explain it together."

Gaines: "Well, they should be here by noon."

**
At noon, an airship arrived at the floating island.

Cardinal Pietro, with his own bodyguards, and everyone in the rescue team waited for the airship to lower the gondola.

As soon as the bottom hatch of the airship opened for the gondola, Nini whispered: "I saw the half-elf. He is indeed an old man who is almost four hundred years old."

Wang: "Where?"

"The one whose robe is inlaid with gold."

Wang squinted for a long time. When the hanging basket started to be lowered, he didn't see the gold inlay. He only saw the white robe.

However, as the hanging basket approached the ground, he finally saw the "almost 400-year-old old woman" clearly.

Wang: "Isn't this a young girl?"

Nini: "No, the forehead lines and crow's feet are very obvious. This is indeed a half-elf who has entered his old age."

Wang frowned and looked back and forth between Nini's face and the face of the "half-elf old woman". After looking at it for a long time, he muttered: "Oh... it seems... it's a little interesting."

Xiaobai: "Actually, it's more obvious when you look at the breasts. Nini is the most elastic among us. That old lady's sagging is probably quite obvious."

Rosalie: "In 'Among Us,' you're counting yourself in? Can you be flexible? You're obviously tough."

Xiaobai: "My butt is very elastic. What, you look down on your butt?"

The poor dialogue on the part of the Salvation Team made the Cardinal next to him frown. It seemed like "the fate of the world is actually left to these people, let's destroy them when they get tired."

At this time, the hanging basket finally landed. The nun on the hanging basket untied the buckle of the fence and stepped off the hanging basket.

As soon as she came down, the hanging basket was put up.

Pietro took a step forward and saluted her first: "Ms. Atori, I have heard about your deeds when I was a trainee priest. It is a great honor to finally meet you today."

Atori smiled slightly: "Your Majesty Cardinal, you have the merit of suppressing the undead army. You must be the candidate for the next pope."

Pietro: "No, no, I just suppressed the undead army, but the lich was personally killed by His Holiness Pope Pius X. The greatest credit belongs to His Holiness the Pope! It seems that His Excellency is about to be canonized."

Wang: "I also killed Erzam once, can I also be canonized?"

While he was speaking, Elizabeth and Rosalie were each tugging at his mage robe.

Xiaobai looked up at the sky with a "hopeless" expression.

Atori turned to look at Wang: "This must be the captain of the salvation team and the Lord of the Floating City."

Pietro: "Exactly."

Wang (simultaneously): "It's me."

Artoli came to the king and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty the City Lord, I am the nun who will be the priest of the temple in your city, Artoli Lansnott.

"I am a priest with eight-ring magic. I think I can play a big role in your future adventures."

Pietro said: "At the same time, Ms. Atori is also the supreme commander of our knight team that will be stationed on the floating island."

Wang: "I don't know who is in the knight team yet."

"You know the captain of the knight squad. This squad will be led by Teresa, a senior knight. She is now arranging the military handover on the ground. This is an order from the Pope's Office." Pietro said.

Just as Wang was about to answer, the gondola was lowered from the airship for the second time.

The passenger on the gondola slipped directly through the gap in the guardrail and opened his hands to Gaines: "Gaines! Old friend! Long time no see!"

The humans and half-elves who were still talking all turned to look at the dwarf.

The dwarf noticed the gaze and immediately took off his hat and saluted: "Are you the Lord of the City? I heard Gaines said that you need a dwarf who is proficient in electricity? I didn't expect that there are people among humans who know the secrets of electricity..."

Gaines: "He is the disciple of the planeswalker. He knows a lot of knowledge about different planes."

"Is he the one? Isn't the city owner the one who is proficient in the technology of the ancient Cyclops Empire?"

"It's the same guy," Gaines said.

The dwarf turned his head to look at the king again, then lowered his head and straightened his clothes. He also rubbed his hat vigorously a few times to remove all the wrinkles. Then he put the hat on his heart and saluted respectfully: "It turns out he is a big man from another plane. Master Technician, I'm sorry. Please accept my apology."
