The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Chapter 506 Dispute
However, Ryan didn't know what happened in the prison, because at this moment, he had already returned to the temporary camp.

As Ryan chanted the spell, soon, an oval mirror appeared in the air.

At the same time, everyone in the camp also saw Ryan and looked surprised.

"Mr. Ryan, I'm so glad to see you return safely."

"How is it? Did it go well?" Swordmaster Tirion stood up and greeted him with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Tirion. Everything went smoothly." Ryan nodded and smiled.

"Sir Ryan, it seems that you have gained a lot." Hiram glanced at the keychain in Ryan's hand and said with a smile.

He knew that with his strength, even if he was promoted to a Dawn Wizard, he would not be able to explore the negative second floor alone like Lord Ryan in front of him.

"I got the key, but I didn't have time to explore. The monsters inside are very powerful."

Ryan gestured to the keychain in his hand, smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He certainly wouldn't tell the truth.

After all, we are now on federal territory, and there is no guarantee that others will not be jealous.

Besides, he didn't want to cause trouble for himself and just wanted to make a fortune quietly.

"Oh? Are the monsters inside very powerful?" Tirion asked with interest.

"Well, I encountered it." Ryan quickly recounted the incident.

"Your Majesty Tirion, if you are interested in exploring, please remember not to go deep into the negative third floor. As for the negative second floor, it is best to go in a team, such as with Lord Hernandez and other strong men."

At the same time, Ren gave Tirion a friendly reminder.

After all, Tirion had been getting along well with him during this period, and Ryan also thought that the other party was a good person.

"Thank you, Lord Ryan, I will pay attention to it." Tirion nodded and said.

Hernandez on the side seemed to have heard something key and had a thoughtful look on his face.

Sword Master Tirion and Hernandez had no doubts about what Ryan said, but to Hiram and those researchers, it was too exaggerated.

Many people were whispering in the background:

"Isn't this too exaggerated? Can the strength of a mummy tauren match that of the swordmaster Tirion?"

"Lord Tirion is also required to lead a team. Lord Ryan from the Empire does not take our Federation's Sword Master seriously enough."

"But what if what Mr. Ryan said is true?"

"I feel that Mr. Ryan may be exaggerating a bit."

"."

These second-level liquefied wizard researchers had never witnessed Ryan's strength, let alone gone deep into the negative first level. However, in their opinion, what Ryan said was too exaggerated.

Even Hiram felt that what Ryan said was a little too serious.

Ryan naturally heard these whispers, but he naturally didn't care about these people's opinions, let alone explain anything.

Listen if you want.

If you don't want to listen, then you will go down and seek death without adequate preparation, and that's your own fault.

After all, he had given a relatively pertinent reminder for Tirion's sake.

"By the way, Lord Ryan, you just mentioned a word, demon?" Hernandez suddenly thought of something and said.

"Well, could it be that Mr. Hernandez has heard of it?" Ryan asked with interest.

Just now, Ryan did not mention the three groups of black mist merging together, but simply mentioned, "After killing the monster, the black mist formed a demon, which is very powerful."

"I recalled that I seemed to have seen it in some ancient book before, but it didn't explain it in detail, just mentioned a few sentences." Hernandez shook his head and said.

"It seems that this kind of evil spirit is derived from some evil creature in ancient times and cannot be completely eliminated."

"Oh? Are there any other records?" Ryan thought thoughtfully.

Unable to completely eliminate? This is consistent with the fact that the system did not absorb any high-quality energy after killing the opponent.

"There's nothing else." Hernandez shook his head and said.

"Thank you, Mr. Hernandez, for clearing up my confusion."

Ryan felt a little disappointed.

After fighting with the evil demon, he was still quite afraid of it.

It seems that I have to ask His Highness Menia about the situation of this evil demon.

After all, with Menia's identity and experience, she knows a lot of secrets that ordinary Dawn wizards are completely unaware of.

"Sir Ryan, since you are back, shall we leave now?" said the Sword Master Tirion.

During the time that Ryan went to explore the prison, they had rested enough, and his injuries had healed.

"Of course." Ryan nodded and agreed.

Soon, according to the records on the design drawings of the floating city, the group quickly passed through two holes and arrived at Gate No. 3 on the second floor below ground.

The location of Gate No. 3 is exactly opposite to the direction of the prison and is closer to the area where the previous prototype exploded, so there are very few goblin mummies.

This made those researchers feel that what Ryan said before was full of water.

"What a huge steel gate?" Hiram couldn't help but exclaimed as he looked at the metal gate in front of him that was at least thirty meters high.

"Well, the passage for giant golems to deploy for combat naturally cannot be small." Ryan had seen the design drawings of the floating city and naturally understood why this passage was designed to be so tall.

"The mechanical gate can no longer be locked. It can only be opened through this manual gate." Hiram frowned and pointed to a circular turntable shaped like a ship's rudder.

Although he is a metal wizard, the turntable is connected to a complicated gear structure and needs to be turned with great force. If the metal is just deformed, the door still cannot be opened.

This circular rudder-shaped turntable has a diameter of more than three meters. Obviously, this design should be operated by some mechanical device controlled by the goblins or golems.

Among all the people present, perhaps the strength of His Majesty the Swordmaster Tirion is enough, but the problem is that the turntable is at least two and a half meters above the ground. In other words, a normal human body cannot step on the ground to exert force.

As for directly deforming the door in front of him into a big hole, at least he absolutely couldn't do it.

Perhaps, Lord Ryan can do it.

Hiram thought so.

"Well, let me do it." Ryan said, and walked forward quickly.

He naturally thought of the same questions that Hiram thought of.

His right arm suddenly swelled, dark silver dragon scales emerged, and his entire body grew to more than four meters. This was the result of Ryan deliberately controlling the degree of transformation.

"Ccrunch! Crunch!"

The thick dragon claws grasped the metal turntable and began to turn it vigorously.

"Boom!"

The metal door, which was more than one meter thick and tens of meters high, was slowly lifted up.

But suddenly!
The red warning lights around the area flashed, followed by a high-decibel mechanical sound:
"Warning! Warning! Door No. 3 has been opened illegally. Please eliminate the hidden danger immediately. (Ancient Goblin language)"

"Not good. All exits of the floating city should be connected to the control room. I didn't expect the control system to still function normally." Hiram's face changed. "Sir Ryan, you..."

"Don't worry, it's still in time."

Because it is a gear transmission structure, the metal door only rises about ten centimeters when the turntable rotates one circle.

However, as the alarm sounded, Ryan's rotation speed began to become abnormally exaggerated. The huge metal turntable in the huge dragon claws spun faster and faster.

The metal gate was also rising rapidly.

"Let's go!" Hernandez quickly led the researchers and the federal exploration team through the gate.

As for the Swordmaster Tirion, he stayed behind to guard Ryan because he was the fastest.

"That's enough, Lord Ryan."

"it is good."

When Ryan released the turntable, he did not fasten the buckle on the side.

The turntable was spinning at high speed, and the door began to drop and close quickly.

However, with the speed of Ryan and Tirion, it was more than enough for them to rush out of the gate.

"Swish!"

Two figures rushed out of the door at high speed.

Just as Ryan was leaving Gate No. 3, he felt something in his heart and looked back. He saw a number of mechanical monsters that he had never seen before, which looked like velociraptors, running towards him rapidly hundreds of meters behind him.

"boom!"

However, the next second, the calm metal door closed again, and these mechanical velociraptors disappeared from Ryan's sight.

"Sir Ryan, what's wrong?" Sword Master Tirion asked curiously when he saw Ryan turning his head to look at the closed Door No. 3.

"It's nothing, Lord Tirion, let's go." Ryan shook his head and said.

At this moment, the two have arrived outside the floating city. Under their feet is a narrow passage with a width of only two meters. It should be the outer maintenance passage of the floating city, and below is dark red magma like a moat.

However, compared to their previous position at the cave entrance, they were now closer to the bottom, so their vision was much clearer.

Hernandez and Hiram have used witchcraft to reach the other side and are building a simple steel bridge for the elite soldiers to pass through.

Of course, there was no need for Ryan and Tirion to do so. Five minutes later, the group returned to the cave camp where they had started out, located in the Rethero Canyon.

The cave camp is now much more complete than before.

There were dozens of tents of various sizes, and various wizard formations were set up around them.

Seeing that Ryan, Tirion and Hernandez successfully brought back Hiram and others, the whole camp immediately became excited.

Half an hour later, top-secret messages were delivered to the federal decision-makers one after another.

at the same time.

The Federation capital Antuhor is in mid-air heading towards Zetaia.

The mixed airship formation of the Empire and the Federation, like a giant dragon floating in the air, stretched for dozens of miles and was moving at a constant speed towards Zetaya.

On a giant federal airship at the front of the formation, several people were holding a meeting in a small conference room.

The cause was an urgent message received ten minutes ago.

"What? That ruins turned out to be a floating city?"

Naturally, this piece of news was like a thunderclap in the minds of several people present!
That's a floating city!

It is said that this epoch-making product can fly in the air for a long time and its combat power is at least dozens of times that of the most advanced giant airship in the Federation today.

"Yes, I received this urgent message ten minutes ago. You can take a look at the information on the table first. Then, we will discuss what to do next?" Deputy Speaker Bertrand nodded and said.

Since the last stop of the Imperial delegation was Zetaia, the Federal Parliament also handed over the matter of the ruins to him.

When he received the news, he was as shocked as everyone else present.

For a moment, the only sound in the conference room was the turning of pages.

A few minutes later, the old man with the pipe hanging down seemed to have finished reading the information on the table. He said solemnly, "We rescued Hiram's team. At the same time, we also found a lot of ancient goblin technology data and floating cities. Naturally, we are happy to hear that."

"But the problem now is that according to intelligence, Mr. Ryan from the Empire has also obtained relevant ancient goblin technology information. This is very disadvantageous for the Federation!"

"This means we lose a very important bargaining chip at the negotiation table with the Empire."

"That's right. I was worried about the possibility of leakage before, but I didn't expect it to really happen." The federal admiral who attended the last meeting looked at Trena and said in a deep voice.

"In addition, if the intelligence is true, then perhaps our attitude towards cooperation with the Empire can change a little." The admiral said meaningfully.

"I also believe that if we can successfully control the floating city, those revived behemoths will not be a problem." The old man with the pipe nodded in unison and said.

"Mr. Vice Speaker, I have a suggestion. If Mr. Ryan cannot make it clear that he will join the Federation before leaving, perhaps we can let him stay forever."

The federal admiral glanced at Trena, then looked at Bertrand and spoke slowly.

"I don't agree!" Treina's pretty face changed color and she stood up immediately.

"Admiral Randall, Lord Ryan is extremely talented. Even if he doesn't join the Federation, as long as he exists, he will be the backbone of mankind in resisting the resurrection of gods and behemoths. Your proposal is too cold-blooded!"

"Senator Trena, I agree with Admiral Randall's opinion."

“Although this suggestion may not sound very good in practice, it will allow the Federation to keep the ruins secret.”

"And as we master the ancient goblin technology and floating cities, it is very likely that we will not only be able to independently solve the problem of the resurrection of the giant beasts, but also destroy the Dragun Empire and incorporate it into the territory of the Federation."

"It is undeniable that a unified federation is the most efficient way to mobilize manpower and material distribution, and is capable of dealing with future situations, rather than the current model of cooperation between the two countries."

The pipe-smoking old man took the pipe from his mouth, tapped the ash on the ashtray, and said in a deep voice.

As a member of parliament and head of federal industrial production, he has good reasons and confidence to say this.

"Finally, Senator Trena, don't forget that you are a member of the Federation. When you took the oath, you said, 'Everything is for the Federation, and you will never do anything that harms the interests of the Federation.' Have you forgotten that?"

"I still disagree! Didn't you read the intelligence about the important role played by Mr. Ryan in this operation? I don't agree with violating the most basic principles of life for the sake of profit!"

"This" Faced with huge differences of opinion, Deputy Speaker Bertrand looked hesitant.

It is undeniable that if the target was not Mr. Ryan, but someone else, Bertrand's heart would naturally be inclined to keep the secret, because this represents the core interests of the Federation.

But now, the target is Ryan.

Bertrand had witnessed Ryan's fighting ability and unparalleled talent with his own eyes. To kill such a young man with great potential, not to mention how much it would cost, it was also a great pity in his heart.

"We have just set out for Zetaia and we still have one day to arrive. Our military can take charge of this matter. Fortunately, the Zalal rebels have been quite active recently, so we can blame them for this matter."

The admiral named Randall continued.

"If we wait until Ryan and the Imperial delegation meet up, we won't have much of a chance to take action."

"Mr. Deputy Speaker, we are running out of time."

"Mr. Vice Speaker, I strongly oppose it!" said Trena with a cold face.
