Fantasia of the Sky

Chapter 526 Investigation Beyond War 2
There are other reasons why the floating continent does not build underground passages.After all, the Floating Continent is rich and powerful, not only has sufficient funds, but also enough magicians-but they still haven't done so.

It is not impossible to maintain the underground passage with magic power. Although it consumes a lot of energy, it is much more efficient than using airships for transportation, and the consumption is relatively less.However, that would inevitably cause a certain amount of damage to the environment of the "wall", which the people of the Floating Continent did not want to see. The "wall" intercepted countless monsters coming from the Sunset Grassland. Without it, the people in the Floating Continent would have been eaten up by monsters in ancient times.Projects related to the "wall" must be done with caution.

Although the people on the surface don't think about protecting the environment, they have to consider whether they will be discovered by the floating mainlanders - once they have an accident such as a mountain collapse, they may be discovered in advance.Moreover, they will not do too crazy things, such as blowing up the "wall" and letting the monsters pass by - they don't want to destroy the floating continent, they just want to defeat the surface people.For them, the Floating Continent is an endless treasure house, what they want to do is to seize it, not destroy it.

However, they also have the possibility of building small underground passages.Their machinery has some advantages in digging tunnels, and they may be able to dig out a thinner passage-although large-scale transportation cannot be achieved, there is still no problem in transporting disassembled mechanical giant whale parts.In this case, they might evacuate some people along that path?Skell knew that they couldn't give up those large mechanical beasts, and those mechanical beasts couldn't be transported there—the current battle was inevitable.However, if they can intercept the surface people earlier, they can destroy their plans sooner. No matter what they want to do, they can't let them succeed.

Skell sent a large number of magicians, mercenaries, and magic balls to search for it, and searched carefully along the "wall".This workload is not quite huge, because according to the previous research data, the area where passages can be built is quite limited. In many places, it is very likely that accidents such as landslides have already been caused after the excavation has just begun.

It didn't take too much time to find the tunnel, and the people on the surface had mastered some surveying techniques and knew where they couldn't dig tunnels.The magicians found a small underground passage with a diameter of about two meters—although there is no problem for people to pass through, and some parts that are not very large can be transported, but this kind of...it is difficult to let too many people and equipment leave. .

The most important point is that this underground passage has been destroyed.When it was discovered, the section leading to the outside of the "wall" had already been blown up, which was obviously done by the surface people themselves; they probably didn't want the floating mainlanders to chase them over.

The destruction was done so thoroughly that it was impossible to investigate the whereabouts of the passage.Skell ordered the magicians to look for other passages, even those places that are not easy to build. The people on the surface are very cunning. Probably only the undestroyed parts were built at all.

They didn't check until after the whole war was completely over, however, this time there really wasn't any.
