Path of Light.

Chapter 781 782. Route
Three thousand fully armed Siren warriors boarded the ship from the shallow sea area in the south of Sun Island. They climbed up the grid ladder from the shallow sea and quickly got into the cabin on the bottom floor.

Olive could even clearly hear the sound of water splashing in the cabin.

The sirens twisted their bodies and slid forward on the deck, their armor making constant clashing sounds.

"Lady Jie Zena, has your Siren Raid Group always traveled to the battlefield on a magic airship?"

Olive asked Zena in a low voice.

Roy was busy, so he asked Zeena to entertain the mermaid Olive.

When the magic airship arrived at the Sun Island, Jie Zena asked the Siren warriors who were ready to go on the island to board the ship.

Olive was also very surprised to see these well-trained Siren warriors boarding the ship in an orderly manner.

"If the span is too far, we'll take the magic airship!"

Zeina responded.

……

Roy dispatched a total of twelve magic airships this time, ten of which carried three thousand Siren warriors, eight hundred Griffin cavalry, and three hundred human priests, and the other two were filled with brand new ring-type Siren armor.

Three hundred human priests are distributed on ten magic airships.

Each magic airship can hold thirty people, which can just fit into the cabin on the first floor of the ship.

As for the 800 griffin cavalrymen of the Griffin Cavalry Regiment, eighty griffin cavalrymen were arranged on each magic airship.

During the day, the Griffin Riders would follow the magic airships and ride the wind in the wind layer.

At night, the griffin cavalry will land on the deck of the magic airship. The griffins will rest on the deck, and the griffin cavalry will also live in the cabin on the lower deck.

Twelve magic airships rose into the sky from Sun Island, entered the wind circle and headed westward.

Captain Tiprado stayed in Sun Island Bay and was responsible for the defense of the entire Sun Island Bay.

Since there is a wall built around the Sun Island Bay, and it is a narrow mountain range two to three hundred meters high, if the Dark Faceless Legion wants to attack the Sun Island Bay, they can only rush in from the main gate of the Sun Island Bay.

Ever since the Faceless Legion suffered a loss in Sun Island Bay last time, they dare not try again easily...

……

It was probably the first time in her life that she rode on a magic airship. As soon as the magic airship rose high into the sky, Olive felt her skin dry and her whole body itchy.

Her body remained in the state of an elf, and it was impossible for her to jump into the sea while on the boat.

Just when she was feeling a little torn and fidgeting, Jie Zena took out a small bottle of spray from her magic waist bag, sprayed it on her face and shoulders a few times, and then handed it to Olive.

"During the time away from the sea, you must always stay hydrated. This contains the essence of water, which was given to me by a friend from the Naga sea tribe." Jie Zena said to Olive.

Olive took it in her hand and sprayed it on herself.

The essence of water in the bottle turned into a mist that hit Olive's face, making her feel cool immediately. The rich scent of water element made Olive feel as if she had returned to the sea again.

She looked at the small, exquisite glass bottle again, and for a moment she couldn't find any words of praise.

"My friend is a Naga sea tribe member who needs to stay away from the sea for a long time, so she used magic to create this potion. She often told me that this potion is not a magic potion, but the wonderful effect brought about by the atomization of the essence of water." Jie Zena introduced on the side.

"Very good, it really solved my big problem."

Olive whispered to Zeena.

"I heard there is also a perfume version of the essence of water. I'll give you another bottle next time I get the chance."

Jie Zena quickly painted another pie in the sky for Olive.

This time the fleet is sailing to Sank Island, and the Siren Raid Group will participate in the war in that waters. Jie Zena feels it is necessary to have a good relationship with Olive so that the Siren Raid Group can obtain first-hand and accurate intelligence.

Olive looked at Roy who was talking to the half-elf captain in the captain's room and said to Zeena:
"Is Captain Roy always so busy?"

"Almost. This time he needs to confirm the flight route with the captain. The farthest we have flown is the North Fjord area. This route is definitely safe. For the rest of the way, we will not fly along the coastline. We will probably fly over the sea." Jie Zena said to Olive.

"If there are any high-level flying monsters lurking around here, it will be extremely dangerous for us."

The two sirens stood on the deck and chatted for a while, then the magic airship rose into the high-altitude wind layer. The cold wind blew and immediately made them shiver all over.

"Let's go, it will be much better in the cabin!"

Jie Zena brought Olive to a room on the first floor of the ship. After pushing open the door and entering the room, she found that a bathtub was installed where the bed was originally.

"This is Tiffany's private room. She has gone to Que Island now. It's just right that you can stay here and take a nap in the bathtub. It's very comfortable! If you have anything, you can find me in the cabin below the deck."

After saying this to Olive, Jezena said goodbye and left.

Olive closed the cabin door, walked to the window, opened the curtains, and could just see the deck through the glass window.

The sail on the main mast was swollen by the wind, and there was a giant kite-like spinnaker at the bow. Three crew members operated the winch to adjust the direction of the spinnaker, which could slightly adjust the heading of the magic airship...

The half-elf crew members were all wearing cotton-padded clothes to keep warm. The temperature on the deck was very low, and the cold wind blew in through the window gaps, making Olive shiver.

Roy appeared on the deck, followed by a group of half-elf guards.

He accompanied a half-elf magician to the bow. The two of them were not afraid of the cold and held onto the railing of the boat and looked down.

Several half-elf guards unfolded a parchment map, and Roy took a pen and kept marking on the map.

Olive was a little curious, so she didn't care about the cold outside. She walked from the cabin to the deck, then slowly walked behind the group of elves at the bow. She saw that these half-elves were actually spreading out a parchment map.

Roy was standing on the side of the ship, looking down at the coastline below.

There were no clouds in the sky at this moment, so one could just see the vast land and ocean from the magic airship.

In fact, this map already has some clear lines, and what Roy is doing now is to correct some minor errors in the details.

The elf magician on the side also kept giving Roy some advice.

"Do you have to correct the map on the deck every time you take the magic airship?"

"Good weather like this without cloud cover is not something you can encounter every time you go out. Since we can see the ocean and land below this time, we can't waste this good weather. Correcting the map can provide more accurate positioning for the next trip."

Roy stopped and explained to Olive.

The seaweed on her body was a little dry, and as the cold wind blew, more skin was exposed, especially the outline of the large headlights on her chest was more clearly visible.

Olive tried hard to hold down her long hair that was messed up by the wind, and she leaned forward to look down.

"It's too cold here. The cold wind on the deck will cause joint problems. Although you can't feel it now, you will suffer in a few years." Roy said to Olive. She stood here, making him lose the energy to correct the map and had to stop.

"Is this the land? It's so vast..."

Olive praised quietly.

She secretly glanced at Roy and found that he was actually making gestures with the elf magician again. He pointed at the mountains in the distance and was introducing the situation over there.

Olive found that her charm had no effect in front of Roy...

Feeling discouraged, I could only say goodbye and leave in embarrassment.

Roy scratched his head, not knowing how to express that he was not Xu Xian.

He whispered to the Great Magician Grams:
"Gremus, how do you think elves achieve cross-species romance?"

"Roy, shouldn't you know more about this kind of thing than I do?"

Grimes gave Roy a heavy blow with a surprised look on his face.

……

The magic airship arrived at the North Fjord smoothly. The fjord was in a mess and there was no trace of the Dark Faceless Man.

The magic airship did not stay in the North Fjord area, but flew directly through the wind layer above the North Fjord. In fact, Roy planned to build a base in the North Fjord if conditions allowed in the future, so that the territory occupied by the half-blood elves could be expanded further west.

However, the mine guard group does not have such conditions for the time being...

According to the Sirens, the western seas have always been controlled by them, and no high-level magical beasts have been seen passing through the sky in all these years.

Roy judged that there might not be any high-level flying monsters in the western sea area, so he ordered the fleet to fly directly through the western sea area...

The magic airship dived directly into the sea from the coastline of the North Fjord. Soon the large land area of ​​the North Fjord disappeared from sight, and what followed was the endless sea, with a few islands occasionally visible in the sea.

After just two hours, Roy could no longer see any land.

The magic airship finally encountered the clouds, and gradually even the sea beneath its feet could not be seen.

At this time, Rodhart could only estimate the approximate location of the magic airship based on its speed and the map...

According to the map, the magic airship will need to fly for at least six days and five nights to reach the other side of the western sea.

If it is a sailboat sailing in the sea, it will probably take more than a month.

Compared with the Endless Sea, the Western Sea is more like a small puddle where mud and water will splash if you step into it.

According to the imperial merchant Darwin, if one takes a magic airship across the Endless Sea, it will take about three months of flying in the wind sphere to reach the Roland Continent.

However, flying high in the sky on a magic airship is not very possible, because the sky overlords of the Endless Sea are a group of wind birds. These gregarious level 7 monsters are not inferior even to dragons.

Roy stayed on the roof of the ship all day and only returned to the cabin when it got dark.

Fortunately, we didn't see any flying monsters along the way...

……

When we first boarded the ship, we were filled with curiosity, but later on, we were bored and crammed into the narrow cabin, soundly sleeping...

Roy pushed the door and walked into the captain's room. Captain Rodhart was standing in front of the map, measuring with a compass, probably calculating the current location of the magic airship.

The clouds below the sky were growing thicker and thicker, and even kilometers-long electric snakes were emerging from the violently rolling clouds.

"It should be raining heavily or even in extreme weather below, so the magic airship cannot descend to explore the specific location!"

Captain Rodhart said to Roy.

"The scariest thing is that we seem to be flying towards the middle of this extreme weather. We are currently at the edge of a huge cloud vortex. If we fly forward, we will see the true face of this vortex."

"Boss, in this kind of stormy weather, the magic airship cannot land. Once it lands, it will be overturned by the hurricane."

Although the sunlight was dazzling above the clouds and not a drop of rain could be seen, the thick cumulonimbus clouds beneath our feet had already formed a huge vortex in the sky.

Roy had noticed this strange cloud formation in the morning.

After he had taken a nap, the magic airship had already arrived above the edge of the cloud vortex...

Roy pushed open the cabin door and walked out. It was still very cold outside.

The magic airship was at least a thousand meters above the clouds below, and there were three wind layers in different directions in between.

The voice of the great magician Grams came from the observation deck above the ship:

"Beneath the clouds is a sea storm."

Hearing what Grahams said, Roy suddenly came to his senses and realized that he had encountered a typhoon.

"Don't go towards the center of the vortex. It will be more dangerous the further you go there. We can only walk along the edge of the sea storm, or turn around and avoid it." said the great magician Grams.

"Sea storms of this magnitude are incredibly powerful, and if we stay high in the sky, we won't be in danger."

"Our magic airship is probably at the Xinghai Island area in the western waters. We need to land and determine the location of the fleet." Roy said to the great magician Grahams.

At this time, the clouds below were dancing wildly with electric snakes again.

After a while, there was a sound of thunder coming from under the feet, and the sound was like the sky and the earth collapsing.

The magic airship Roy was on was at the front of the fleet. Whenever the magic airship made any movement, the half-elf crew on the main mast lookout would use flag signals to notify other magic airships.

Because it is very troublesome to change direction in the wind layer, and once the speed increases, it is impossible to brake, the only way is to lower the sail to slow down.

If that still doesn't work, you will need to adjust the floating device to let the magic airship descend from the current wind layer, but doing so is very dangerous.

Roy did not intend to let the magic airship enter the center of the sea storm, so he asked the half-blood elf on the observation tower to send flag signals to other magic airships.

When the twelve magic airships are flying normally, they will be separated by a certain distance, and this information needs to be transmitted by all lookouts together.

Soon, the other magic airships came towards Roy, and all of them lowered their sails and slowed down almost at the same time.

Although the sails on the three masts were lowered, the spinnaker on the bow not only served as a guide, but also prevented the magic airship from rolling in the wind layer, so the guide spinnaker could not be retracted anyway.

The speed decreased little by little, and under the leadership of Captain Rodhart, twelve magic airships were lined up neatly and began to descend from the wind layer.

Rushing to the edge of the sea storm...
