Unlike the past, the floating fleet composed of airborne carriers passed through the sky at this time, and the cargo holds usually used to load cargo were replaced by infantry carrier pods specially used to carry soldiers and ammunition.

The fully loaded Seagull-class airship cast a significant shadow from the sky to the ground, and its slow movement speed made it look like a whale leisurely cruising in the sky.

"Four...more than usual, and the shape of the ships is different from usual. What are they doing..."

An explorer guard raised his head, and the tips of his ears stretched out and shook, as if listening to the sound of the sky.

Their ears were never decorations to please others. With the help of keen hearing, everyone in their tribe is an excellent hunter.

"I don't know, it looks like they are doing something big...Okay, this distance should be enough..."

The captain of the escort reached out to the exploration team behind him, who was wearing camouflage uniforms made of leaves. In the past few months, their camouflage stealth and wilderness survival skills have improved rapidly.

Finally, they can see the people in those airships... people like them.

People without ears.

People who live in a different world from them.

The cleaning activities of the airship will continue for a while, clearing out any local creatures that dare to block their work. In this way, the monster made of steel will hover in the air for a while, and the soldiers in black clothes will shoot the remaining creatures in the ore vein one by one to ensure their death.

Guns, the weapons of the gray-clothed soldiers, they can not understand each other's words. I also occasionally heard the weapons they often mentioned in their conversations - a long-pole weapon with great power, long range, and slow reload speed.

Finally, the miners were put down to fully mine the veins, one part of the soldiers was on guard outside, and another part drew the daggers on their waists to harvest the spoils from the creatures they killed.

The purpose of the floating fleet is the same as those who left their homes and left the mild environment of the kingdom, all for stones.

For the floating stones emitting a faint purple light.

He felt like a scavenger, waiting for the beast to finish eating, and then impatiently looking for resources they could use from the leftovers left by the beast.

"Check the equipment, we will follow you."

The soldiers who came down from the iron-gray ship only collected the most valuable floating stone resonance chambers and magic materials from the monsters they killed. The remaining parts were cheap for them, and there were also some carnivorous creatures that had been waiting for a long time.

The floating fleet that periodically cleaned the ore veins obviously changed the surrounding environment. Some small carnivorous creatures always liked to follow the stern of the iron-gray floating ship from a distance, and started to feast as soon as all the fleet personnel evacuated.

And they, their abandoned exploration team, also competed with these small carnivorous creatures. They raced against time to harvest the remaining scraps, and sometimes they could find some rare parts that had not been collected.

They used the spine meat of the monsters to grill luxuriously, feeling the taste of the meat immersed in energy - but there was no salt, and the little salt on the frigate had been used up long ago.

The money earned in three months was more than what they had earned in the past three months.

The money they saved was enough for them to permanently withdraw from the ranks of guard mercenaries.

The premise is that they can leave here and pass through the pupils of the oryx that monitor everything. The fleet responsible for patrolling the interior of the sky island has reached this level. What will they encounter when they plan to leave the sky island... The captain of the guard sincerely hopes that what he sees is their oryx fleet.

"I want to open a restaurant of my own when I go back, hehe, and then hang the horn cut from the oryx in the restaurant for display."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, a guard used a humorous tone to buffer the atmosphere.

"That oryx was not hunted by you, but they shot it from the sky... It wasn't that the oryx ran for a while before dying, how could it be our turn."

Another team member laughed and inserted the worn rune sword in his hand into the ground to fiddle with the fallen branches.

"If you open a restaurant, I will open a hotel next door to you, and then people who eat at your place can come to stay at my place."

The captain of the guard did not stop their chat. In a depressing environment, it always takes a little time to relax. Put your fingertips on the tree to leave a mark that can only be sensed by the caster. They can follow the mark left by the island to find the location of their camp and avoid getting lost.

"There are so many of them..."

A guard member sighed as he looked at the cloud-dwelling creatures rising from the forest in the distance as the floating fleet went away.

The captain of the guard knew what he was talking about. From the iron-gray warships they first saw acting alone.

Now that it has increased to four small fleets acting together, their number is increasing. One day, the colonies of the kingdom will come into direct contact with these things.

"It's time to set off. We can't keep up with them if we go any further. I hope we can get a good harvest this time."

The guards sheathed their weapons, put on simple leaf camouflage again and followed the captain's footsteps as the floating fleet moved forward.

They were just a team that originally followed the order of the Geological Society to come for exploration, but was later abandoned by the governor.
