Doomsday Totem

Chapter 571 Floating Boat
Two days after Mu Yu Linglan left, Tie Zha bid farewell to Mu Yu Qin Xin and Hui Yan, took the sky train, and returned to the Central Continent.

He didn't go directly to Quicksand Town, but disembarked the aircraft in a small town near the great ape city of the Ram family, a great aristocrat in the central region.He planned to go to Qiman's dream to find out the situation before making a decision.After all, the [-]-ton Star Diamond is extremely rare, and not everyone can mine it, otherwise it would not be so expensive.In fact, after he knew the specific price, he no longer had any thoughts, but he didn't want to take a look at it, and he was a little bit unwilling.

The gate of Qiman's Dreamland is located in the dark forest east of the Great Ape City, adjacent to the Dark Night Lighthouse.A small town was built there called "Land of Dreams".

Iron Slag took stock of his supplies, including a hidden steel straight machete, an ordinary military dagger, a gunpowder silver star, six cartridges, two blasting grenades, a red warrior badge of Notre Dame, and a war bear. A temple badge, a star stone black card under the name of Sirius Investment Co., Ltd., an encrypted satellite communicator exclusive to Notre Dame, and five hundred gold coins.

Afterwards, he bought a second-hand Great Wall cavalry in a small town, packed some water, food, and travel supplies, and headed for the Land of Dreams.He could have asked Mu Yuqin to send him over with his exclusive aircraft and parachute directly at the destination.But considering that he is not a member of Notre Dame and often instructs them to do things, it will definitely have a bad influence.

Half a day later, Iron Slag arrived at the border of the dark forest.Looking up, the road leading to Dreamland is extremely wide, with four train tracks in the middle and eight-lane asphalt roads on both sides.It's just that the road surface is a bit potholed and has been in disrepair for a long time, and the train tracks are also rusty, with breaks appearing from time to time, obviously it has not been used for many years.After entering the highway, there were very few vehicles passing by, and only a large truck roared past after a long time.

There used to be a lot of traffic here, and it was congested all the year round, but with the completion of the floating silver cities, the traffic volume dropped sharply, so it gradually fell into disuse.Recently, trucks have passed by because the Far East Snake Clan is building two Silver City Snake City.

However, the star diamonds that are mined now and used in aircraft are very light in weight, so there is no need for special transportation at all, and they can be packed in backpacks.

More than 200 years ago, when some people proposed to use the pumice stones in Qiman's dream to build a city, the Temple of Brilliance uttered the most resolute voice of opposition.

"We are all sons and daughters of the earth, we will never be separated from each other, we will never erect high walls, and we will never build cities in the sky!"

This sentence is called "Brilliant Eternal Oath" by those who know this period of history.At the beginning, many people questioned it, thinking that it was just a rhetoric for the sake of profit.But when the final battle started, everyone believed it, believing in this oath made with flesh and blood.

Never build a floating city, never abandon anyone.

This is the glorious faith.

Seven or eight hours later, at night, Tie Slag ran more than 500 kilometers and finally arrived at the land of dreams.

From a distance, the scale here is slightly smaller than Quicksand Town, and most of the houses are made of wood, built between trees.Because the ground is wet all year round, it is about one meter above the ground, which is a bit like the ancient pre-nuclear war building.

The streets in the town are relatively narrow, and the neon lights are all in warm colors. Walking on the street, there is a sense of tranquility and peace.

Next to Dreamland is the base camp of the Dark Forest Guard, so there are many guards wearing tarpaulin uniforms on the street.They gathered together in twos and threes, hooking shoulders and backs, laughing and beating and scolding.Either screaming loudly, or carrying a wine bottle, walking crookedly, drunk, or hugging women, leaning into their ears, whispering in a low voice, not to arouse bursts of laughter.

Whether it is a mercenary or a regular army, they always like to go to the bar to find Liuying when they are resting.After all, they are all living a life of licking blood with knives. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. Maybe they will be torn to pieces by the crow flies, or melted into a pool of flesh and blood by the acid of the stinging insects, or they will be smashed into a pool of blood by the gendarmerie. Gun headshot.Only the drunken, dreamy, tender and tender body at this moment can make them feel that they are still alive, and that they live comfortably and happily.

Looking at the approach bridge in the distance, across the mid-air tens of meters high, the quiet and deep gate of the plane glowing with dark blue waves, Iron Slag slowly took a breath, turned the accelerator lightly, and drove away at a constant speed.

After a while, he drove onto the approach bridge. Since the gate of the plane was at a higher place, the approach bridge was in a spiral shape.He ran five or six laps, and he finally drove into the gate of the plane.

With a flash in front of his eyes, the glare of the sun hit him head-on, making him unable to open his eyes for a while.After a few seconds, he gradually got used to it.What caught the eye was a huge metal platform, in the shape of a semicircle, about tens of thousands of square meters.There are various types of airships parked on it, mostly the size of a rear eight-wheeled truck, but there are also 30-meter-long ones that are rising and falling, like busy worker bees.

Various forklifts and carts shuttled between the airships.Many Far Eastern workers in canvas overalls were carrying things, driving vehicles, or sitting on material boxes and chatting. It was very lively.

In the sky in the distance, mist filled the air, and islands of various sizes were hidden in it, looming, just like a fairyland of glazed glass, the top of the mountains of the gods.

The sunshine here is warm and warm, except for the discomfort of switching between night and day when just driving out of the gate of the plane, it is not dazzling at all.

Mu Yulinglan told him in class that this platform is called "The Beginning Land", which is supported by a million-ton-level floating core, 16 yuan and 20-ton-level auxiliary, and it took [-] years to build. , is the first stop for human beings to open up Qiman's dreamland.

As soon as Tie Slag took a few breaths, he felt extremely heavy in his chest. He quickly turned the car around and returned to the land of dreams.

The air in this plane contains a gas that hinders the combination of oxygen and red blood cells, called "Nightmare Gas".Inhalation of large quantities can suffocate humans.After coming out, Iron Slag put on a breathing filter mask and an oxygen cylinder on his back, and connected them in case of emergencies.Even if you wear a mask, you will still inhale a small amount of nightmare gas, which will lead to hypoxia, so every half hour or so, you need to inhale pure oxygen for a while to restore the vitality of your organs.Iron slag is a worm, and its tolerance to hypoxia far exceeds that of ordinary people. It only needs to inhale pure oxygen for 5 minutes every two hours.

After wearing it, Iron Slag re-entered the gate of the plane.After a short stay, he boarded a "ferryboat" on the edge and flew towards the diversion platform.

The so-called ferryboat is a fully automatic airship that connects the Land of Beginning and hundreds of distribution platforms around it.According to the usual practice, if there are no special circumstances, the first time you enter Qiman's dream, you have to leave the place where you started.Because this is the only platform leading to Silver City World, if a large number of idlers stay for a long time, it will cause congestion on the platform.However, the flow of goods has dropped sharply now, so there are no special personnel in charge of supervision.

[coming soon, 380 No. [-] distribution platform, I wish you a happy]
A few minutes later, a mechanically synthesized female voice sounded, and the outline of a metal platform gradually appeared in the fog ahead.After another tens of seconds, the scene on the platform gradually became clear as the ferryboat approached.According to the visual estimation, there are tens of thousands of square meters, and all kinds of airships are parked on it.Some scattered people are gathering under the airship, some are chatting, some are playing cards, appearing very casual and lazy.

Seeing a ferryboat approaching, the group of people stopped what they were doing and looked over in unison.As soon as the iron slag drove onto the platform, they scrambled to surround it.

"Brother, where are you going?" "Boss, come to me, I'll give you a cheaper price." "You can rent a small airship for 25 gold coins a day." "25, [-] is enough." He said to Iron Slag in a tongue-in-cheek manner.

These people are traders in the airship transportation business, commonly known as "floating boat dealers" or "planar flies".

"Brother, I know where there are good rocks." "I found a new island last time. It's very big. I'll take you there." "I've been sailing for more than ten years, so I guarantee it's safe."

"Boss, there are a few little girls on my boat. Their thighs are white and tender. I will accompany you to see evergreen trees, thousand-year-old vines, green sea waves, blue sky springs, lakes in the sky, and foggy gardens." "Big brother, big brother." , I have a 36D big girl here, I promise to make you happy..." The floating boat dealers all have their own unique tricks, first fighting for price, and then for service items, which can be described as endless and dazzling.

Iron Slag glanced around, finally pointed to the middle-aged man who said he had been driving a boat for decades, and said, "Three days."

Seeing that their business was in jeopardy, the other floating boat dealers all showed despondency, and soon they went back to chatting and playing cards.

"Boss, you really have vision." The middle-aged floating boat dealer pointed his thumb at Iron Slag and said seriously.Then he patted his chest and boasted, "My name is Liang Anping, and I have been here for 17 years. Among other things, my skills must be excellent."

For a moment, Tie Slag had the feeling that he chose the wrong person...

"The price is cheaper for you. As the saying goes, rely on your parents at home and friends when you go out. From now on, you will be brothers on the same boat." Liang Pingan said without stopping, "There are five people in our medium-sized boat, and 25 gold a day. How about it?"

"Eight gold a day." Tie Slag said expressionlessly.The reason why he bargained so hard was not because he was short of money, but because he was away from home, so he wanted to appear poorer so as not to attract people's attention.

"Eight gold?" Liang Ping'an called out, "Oh my God, the fuel bill is not enough, and the engine oil, lubricating oil, and repairs are still needed, and the brothers still need to eat..."

"Add two more." Tie Slag interrupted him.

"Boss, this is a life-threatening job. If you are not careful, the boat will be destroyed and people will die. It's not that there is no way out. No one is willing to do this." Liang Pingan continued to complain.

"Add two more, if it doesn't work, forget it." Tie Slag shook his hand.

"Sixteen gold a day, it can't be lowered, no one will go if it is lower, really, I won't lie to you..." Liang Ping'an said with a sincere face, cupping his fists, "Boss, give the brothers a way to survive."

"Go." Tie Slag made a start gesture.

"Hey, thank you boss, thank you, thank you so much." Liang Pingan thanked repeatedly while accompanying him with a smiling face.
