Celestial Mage

Chapter 310 A Small Mountain-like Petrified Ship (13)

dusk.

Golden Grand Canal.

The days are short in deep winter, and at four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun is already close to the horizon, dyeing the clouds in the sky a gorgeous fiery red, like a wave that is burning.

A huge ship from the East is slowly lining up on the canal.

This boat is very special. There are no fiber trackers on both sides of the river, and there are no sails on the boat. Its biggest feature is that it is as big as a hill.

Even the largest wooden sailboat is like a hound meeting an elephant, and there is almost an order of magnitude difference in size.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is a moving hill.

This boat is very long, 130 meters long, and the deck is also very wide, more than 40 meters long.

This width has already exceeded the capacity limit of the canal, but the hull is narrow at the bottom and wide at the top, in the shape of an inverted triangle with a great inclination, so the bottom of the boat can just pass through the canal less than 30 meters wide.

The strange thing is that the hull of the ship is more than 20 meters high, and it is so huge, but the draft is very shallow, only less than 4 meters.

In the eyes of people with a little experience in water transportation, it feels that the ship is not floating on the water, but half floating and half flying on the water.

When such a giant is driving all the way in the canal, it naturally attracts the attention of countless passers-by.

The ship is full of storm flags with gold-rimmed blue background, indicating that it is the property of the Duke of Storms in the East.

So everyone was amazed at the inconceivable material wealth and magical achievements of the Eastern Realm.

On the uppermost deck of the giant ship, Heyajiali, the princess of the East Realm, was standing by the railing of the ship, looking at the spectacle of fire clouds in the sky.

The oncoming cold wind was completely blocked by the power of the spell, and the hustle and bustle of the world was completely shaken off by the height of the giant ship, so all that remained was the leisurely mood of admiring the beautiful scenery.

Of course, no matter where the princess of the East Realm goes, she will never walk alone.

Beside her stood a group of confidant maids, each beautiful and powerful, both mage and warrior.The strongest one is the 6th-level great samurai, only 32 years old, named Leliana.

A group of young aristocratic young masters were standing around the maids.

The status of the young masters is not low. Their fathers are all great nobles, either marquis or earl, and they are all titles bestowed by gods.

He is either an heir to the title, or a talent cultivated by the family with a lot of money.

They are all mages, there are twelve in number, all under 30 years old, and their magical achievements are all high-level, even some high-level peaks.

People below the high level are ashamed to stand beside the princess.

Among them, the second son of the Marquis of Broken Leaf City, the high-level peak mage Olsson was among them.

He even stood beside the princess, less than 4 meters away from the princess.

After admiring the beautiful scenery, Heya Jiali turned to look at the young noble mage accompanying her.

"Everyone, you've been sitting for three days, so tell me your thoughts on this giant petrochemical ship?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, the aristocratic young masters who were somewhat sloppy immediately gathered their spirits.

Olsson, who had been preparing, coughed lightly and spoke loudly.

"It has to be said that using petrochemical construction techniques to build ships is an extremely genius idea, and using gravity spells as a new power source for ships is an even more brilliant idea."

"The combination of the two will free the shipbuilding industry from its huge dependence on giant trees and the weather, and greatly increase the size of the ship."

"I boldly predict that once this kind of petrochemical giant ship is greatly expanded, the prosperity of our Eastern Realm will surely reach a new level, reaching a height that other regions can't even imagine!"

This summary is very beautiful.

He Yajiali clapped her hands lightly in praise, with a faint smile on her face: "Master Olsson's words are very good, and he fully expressed my expectations."

Olsson was very excited to be praised, but he still did not forget to flatter: "All the great achievements belong to the Duke."

"Great career?"

Heya Jiali shook her head.

"It can only be regarded as a fairly good innovation, and it is far from Albert."

"For example, the construction cost remains high, and the driving cost is also ridiculously high. In the foreseeable future, it may be difficult to promote."

In order to drive this super giant ship weighing more than 6000 Divins and enable it to pass through the Golden Canal, the ship is fully equipped with 3000 middle and high-level mages, and consumes a lot of potions. Suspension driving.

And once the mage's mana can't keep up, the power to maintain the suspension of the ship will disappear immediately, and then the giant ship will sink immediately, smashing the bottom of the ship and destroying the Grand Canal.

The cost is too high, and the land of all gold is probably only affordable by the Duke of the Eastern Realm.

In fact, Heya Jiali disapproved of such a move, thinking it was dangerous and wasteful.

But this is her father's will, and she can only obey it.

Another noble young master said: "Your Highness's worries are not unreasonable, but the good things in this world are all changed from bad things."

Before he finished speaking, Olsson immediately reprimanded: "Master Salas, how arrogant are you, how dare you call the petrochemical ship a bad thing?!"

Master Salas' expression froze, and he apologized hastily.

"Your Highness, please forgive my slip of the tongue. What I mean is, this ship is very good, but it can be better, it just needs time to settle."

After finishing speaking, he secretly glanced at Olsson, and a trace of anger flashed in his heart.

He was not surprised that the other party found fault, because he was the third son of Marquis Dandur, the lord of Bibo City.

Suiye City and Bibo City are neighbors, and they both live on the banks of the Hanshui River. The two cities had many conflicts due to shipping matters, and their friendship is very average, and they only maintain superficial harmony.

In fact, a few days ago, his father had a quarrel with Seraf over the Northern Crescent Territory.

Because Seraf blocked the Crescent collar's ship, many customers in Bibo City went bankrupt due to the loss of supply.

He Yajiali turned a blind eye to the cold war between the two and smiled faintly.

"Master Salas, there is no need to apologize. I understand what you mean, and I sincerely hope that I can also produce a few geniuses like Liushu masters in the east, who can fundamentally solve the power problem of the petrochemical ship."

At this time, the third noble mage, Yuragan, a senior mage from the Langley family in Baisha City, smiled and expressed his opinion.

"His Royal Highness, I think that at this stage, sails and gravity can be used to cooperate. When the wind is down, the sail will be generated, the wind will be the main force, and gravity will be the supplement. When the wind is headed, it will be reversed, and the threshold for promotion will be greatly reduced."

He Yajiali's eyes lit up slightly, and she nodded happily.

"Master Yuragan's idea has really come into practice, and it can really solve the problem, which is very precious."

Yuragon was overjoyed in his heart, but he was a handsome man with a deep temperament, no matter how happy he was, his face was calm.

At this time, he smiled and saluted: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Before he could finish speaking, the sound of violent wind and thunder suddenly came from the sky.

Everyone was immediately attracted attention and followed the prestige.

It was discovered that behind the side of the huge ship, at a height of more than 500 meters from the ground, there was a strange black shadow coming at an incredible speed.

In an instant, the black shadow was 300 meters away to the right of the giant ship.

I saw that it was wrapped in a mysterious white mist like a long white gauze skirt, and I couldn't see the specific appearance clearly.

'Boom, boom~'

Its turbulent wind and thunder resounded through the heaven and earth, several times astonishing than the most violent thunder.

Moments later, the air wave raised by the black shadow crossed a distance of hundreds of meters and blew onto the giant ship, shaking the Duke's flag with a blue background and a gold border on the pole.

Look at that shadow again.

One moment he was still on the side of the boat, but the next moment he was far away, reaching the edge of the sky, illuminated by the setting sun, and reflecting the fire clouds in the sky.

All the sorcerers were shocked.

The princess's personal maid, Leliana, even raised the krypton gold shield, vigilantly protecting His Highness behind her.

"What it is?"

"Is it an extraordinary giant bird?"

"This is the middle ground, aren't you afraid of God's punishment?"

Amidst the sound of startled discussions, the 'monster' illuminated by the setting sun drew a semicircle in the sky, turned around and flew towards the giant ship.

Everyone on the deck of the giant ship was a little flustered.

"Protect Your Highness~~"

"Here we come~Here we come~Guards~~Where are the guards?!"

"Hurry up, Your Highness, let's hide in the cabin."

Although they were all high-level mages, they immediately showed the weakness of ordinary people in the face of this terrifying extraordinary thing.

Compared to the panic of others, Heya Jiali was much calmer.

She stared at the approaching monster, and realized that it might not be some extraordinary giant bird, but a man-made object.

Because she saw the glass window.

Looking at the monster again, as the distance continued to shorten, the speed became slower and slower, and the height became lower and lower.

Gradually, the speed dropped to the same level as that of the giant ship. From the view of the ship, the monster seemed to be hovering motionless at a height of [-] meters.

Just as everyone was wondering, the voice of a group of souls came from the sky.

"His Royal Highness Heya Jiali, the northern mage Rosen Ferrand salutes you."

Upon hearing this, the noble mages were shocked, with incredible expressions on their faces.

No one expected that this strange thing that exhibited extraordinary speed would be a man-made object, and the driver would be a master of flow numbers known as the Golden Land.

Heya Jiali was also very shocked, she felt her heart beating violently, but she was a princess after all, and she had seen big scenes, so she barely kept her face calm.

She also used a group spiritual voice: "Is this the master's new magic weapon?"

Responses come quickly.

"It's just a gravitational weapon, not worth mentioning. After flying for a long time, I feel a little tired. I see that His Highness's boat is very spacious. Can you let me pause for a while?"

He Yajiali just smiled: "Master is here, Jiali is very happy. Come, please clear the front of the deck quickly so that the master can dock the magic weapon."

Soon, the debris on the bow deck was cleaned out.

"Master, you can stop."

Thus, the flying object with graceful lines turned around in the sky as smoothly as silk, and stopped on the deck in one go.

'click~~'

The hatch of the flying object was pushed open, and a person came out.

All the noble mages on the upper deck immediately fixed their eyes on it, wanting to see the real face of this master of flow.

Heya Jiali also subconsciously took half a step forward, leaning against the railing on the upper deck, leaning her upper body forward slightly, squinting at the man who came out.

Very young, with a tall stature, close to 1.8 meters, with a strong and upright figure, full of high-quality bearskin armor, not at all thin and weak like ordinary mages, but somewhat like a warrior.

Look at the face again.

Black hair, dark blue eyes, sharp outlines, a little juvenile and immature, facial features are not delicate, but not ugly, when combined together, they show a very unique rough charm.

What is really impressive is his eyes, dark blue eyes like the deep ocean, which seems to hide the wisdom of insight into the world.

After the man stepped out of the weird flying object, he took a few steps forward, and after a quick sweep of the upper deck, his eyes settled on Heya Jiali.

He slightly leaned on his body and performed the etiquette of the next nobleman, then raised his head and smiled: "Your Highness, your demeanor is really impressive."

At this time, Heya Jiali was wearing a vest and trousers that were easy to move, similar to what she wore in the horse riding picture that day.

Bright, majestic, noble, and charming are mixed together, showing an extremely touching temperament.

Mature like a royal sister, charming like a young girl, noble like a queen, just look at it, and it will be hard to forget in this life.

At this moment, the eyes of the two sides touched each other with a distance of more than 20 meters.

After touching it, Heya Jiali lowered her eyes slightly.

Although I have already known the other person's appearance from the mouth of my subordinates, and I have even seen pictures of the other person's appearance, but the real person is a hundred times more agile than the still picture.

The heartbeat that had been calm just now suddenly accelerated again, and there was a warm current in the chest, which was numb.

But immediately, there was another wave of resentment.

It was this nasty guy who refused his love proposal in the letter.

Just thinking about it makes me feel ashamed.
