Players’ NPC daddy.

"I thought it would be a little more unconvinced and reluctant, but it actually looked quite happy."

"What's so strange about that?" the chicken said, shaking its head. "You are a noble man. You challenged it head-on and captured it alive without harming its life."

"Even though you didn't let it go repeatedly and gave it a few more chances to challenge, the power you displayed was enough for it to understand the difference in power between you and it."

"After that, you are not making it a slave, nor a subordinate, but a partner. You give it enough dignity, and it has no reason to disagree."

"Besides, even if you are the king of the wild, you still have to live a life of risking your life. You don't know if you will have food to eat next time and if you don't know if you will have tomorrow after today, how can you have three meals a day?"

"Really?" Blaze thought.

He thought of the lionesses that already belonged to him. If those lionesses also lived such a life and were still managing the border area of ​​the Midsummer Galaxy for him, he would feel a little guilty.

I'll have to go see it after this is over.

Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded. Before it could react, the sky kingfish, which had just been drooling and fantasizing about its three meals a day, took the lead in moving. It flicked its tail and stood in front of the chicken and Blazer, entering a state of alert.

"Well, there's nothing to say about his work attitude."

Blaze nodded and fired a flare.

That was the alarm of the floating island. It didn't exist originally. It was installed for the safety of the floating island after the strangers came. The signal flare was to cancel the alarm.

However, even after the flares were fired, the alarm did not stop. Instead, several people riding flying monsters appeared and approached. It seemed that the threat posed by the old rival race, the Sky King Fish, was too great.

Blaze waved his hand and asked the Sky Kingfish to move aside. The man riding the flying monster approached. It was a stranger.

Although he didn't know these strangers, they knew him and the misunderstanding was resolved in a few words.

As expected, the stranger's face was full of regret. It seemed that he was looking forward to an air battle.

Blaze could also understand that there were only 1000 passes to the floating island a day, and they were limited in time and quantity, so it was difficult to get one, so the strangers who got one naturally hoped to get as much as they wanted before the pass expired.

Some strangers want materials for the sea of ​​clouds monster, while others want something simpler: an exciting air battle, enjoying the thrill of falling from a height of ten thousand meters and then being pulled back into the sky.

But the strangers will not return empty-handed.

Blaze asked a stranger after taking a look at the Sky Kingfish.

"Excuse me, does the person who gets the pass every day have a special one or some kind of chat magic?"

"Ah, a chat group." The stranger touched the back of his head, and after choosing his words, he said, "Because there are only 1000 passes for the floating island, most people are not interested in such a large number of copies. Those who are interested gathered together to form a group chat. The group chat magic is convenient for communication."

"We arrived first and were responsible for notifying others when we encountered a large group of sea of ​​​​cloud monsters."

"If possible, please notify them all to come to the floating island. There will be a big battle soon."

Chapter 1614 Planning a Safe Route

Blaze has always felt that using cloud sea monsters to increase lift and replace part of the floating island mineral veins is the best way.

Although there are a lot more uncertainties than hot air balloons, the Kamijou engine and the like, it has another irreplaceable advantage, which is deterrence.

By hiring the Sky Kingfish, you can disperse the cloud sea monsters below the level of the Sky Kingfish.

There is a saying that goes "Little monsters are hard to deal with." If a large number of small and medium-sized cloud sea monsters rush over, no matter how brave the strangers are, they cannot defend the island-country-level floating island with less than 1000 people.

If there is a king-level monster like the sky kingfish, small and medium-sized monsters will be scared away directly unless they are in mating season.

In contrast, king-level monsters like the Sky Kingfish can also bring big trouble.

For example, the airspace issue.

King-level monsters have their own territories, which are placed in the sea of ​​clouds as airspace. King-level monsters generally only move in their own airspace. Once they enter other airspaces, they are challenging other kings for airspace.

Like the Sky Kingfish, it was only when his shadow fell on the sea of ​​clouds that the Sky Kingfish emerged. Similarly, the Sky Kingfish would also attract attacks from other airspace king-level monsters, and it would be a life-and-death battle.

If it was a small or medium-sized cloud sea ecological area, it would be fine. However, in the next period of time, the floating island will pass through extremely dangerous large-scale cloud sea biological communities, which have a large number of king-level cloud sea beasts.

But danger is also an opportunity. The king-level monsters in the sea of ​​clouds are not weeds, and they are everywhere. They are often few in number, but they exist for a long time. Most of them divide the sea of ​​clouds and are the rulers of the sea of ​​clouds. Maybe they are old acquaintances.

If we take this opportunity to defeat all the king-level cloud sea beasts in one go and carve out a passage that the king-level cloud sea beasts dare not offend, then the floating island will be safe from now on.

Of course, Blaze also considered whether this idea was too arrogant. After all, the sky is bigger than the sea, and the sea of ​​clouds is also wider than the ocean. The sea of ​​clouds and the ocean have only shown the tip of the iceberg so far.

But he had thought about this question, and the answer was not to worry.

After all, the sea of ​​clouds is not a real sea. Compared with the ocean, the source of life, the density of the ecological community in the sea of ​​clouds is far inferior. Moreover, in the past, the ocean world was pouring out bottles of life, and infinite water of life was diluted in the ocean.

Moreover, the floating island has been hovering in the sky for at least hundreds of years, passing through large cloud sea ecological communities countless times. At first glance, it seems like a child of destiny, escaping from danger countless times, but in fact, it is a repeated sweep of large cloud sea ecological communities.

Because at that time, the sky giant had the [Remnants of the Sky] in his hand, which was the limbs of the first generation king of the gods, which could even destroy the trident forged in the Age of Gods and the beginning of mythology.

Unless it is a great dragon, there will be no monster in the sea of ​​clouds that can withstand the wind pressure caused by [The Remains of the Sky]. So even if there have been super-sized cloud sea monsters in the sea of ​​clouds, they would have probably been killed by [The Remains of the Sky] long ago.

Furthermore, Blazer estimated that the average level of the large monster ecological community in the sea of ​​clouds is around LV200. If it exceeds this level, the airspace will not conflict with the sky kingfish, but will be covered.

The principle is like ants and humans living in the same area, the ants' territory is just a part of the humans' territory.

After listening to Blaze's plan, the players' expressions were very excited, and their eyes when looking at the Sky Kingfish also changed.

How to lure a large number of monsters to attack has always been a headache for players. After all, the settings here are extremely close to reality. The monsters will not refresh at a rigid time, but will keep moving and have their own way of survival.

Sometimes, your level is too high, and monsters will smell danger in places where the player cannot see and turn around and run away.

Therefore, places that are attacked by large-scale beast tides are particularly popular, because there are endless monsters to defeat, one wave after another.

For example, the giant tree formed by the combination of the power of the [Tree of Birth and Death], the Golden Tree Sea, the Golden Apple Tree Sea, and the Peace Olive Tree, is attacked by monsters all day and night, with such a high frequency that players began to doubt the [normal natural ecology], that is, the monsters are not spawned, but are born and then eaten.

Later I discovered that this setting still exists. There is a very strong vitality around the [Tree of Birth and Death], and the monsters' reproductive ability has been enhanced.

There are some ways on the ground, but it is extremely troublesome in the sea of ​​clouds. Exploring the sea of ​​clouds is not like exploring the ocean, with so many restrictions, but the density of monsters is relatively low, and you may not encounter one even if you fly for half a day.

If there is this sky king fish, it can attract a large number of powerful monsters, which is only good for them. Not only can they fight in the air, but they can also harvest very rare monster materials from the sky ecological community.

Even if they can't use it, they can sell it to other players. Players as a group will never be dissatisfied with their own materials.

Not to mention, the person in front of him is Black Beast Knight Blaze, a popular character who is currently being given tasks and may even be commissioned for a large-scale event. There is no harm in agreeing to it.

Look at the [Fairy Kingdom]. After establishing a good relationship with the Black Beast Knight Blaze, you can get first-hand information on all resources and tasks.

At other times, the player would have nodded in agreement directly. A second late would have been disrespectful to his luck, but this time he hesitated, which was rare, with a look of hesitation on his face.

"If a large number of sea of ​​clouds monsters come to attack, 1000 people won't be enough. What about the floating city... Oh, maybe we should just forget it."

Blaze was stunned for a moment, then smiled, a smile that was sincere and gentle.

In the past, strangers would not care about such things. In extreme cases, they would even kidnap people and use them as bait. However, in contrast to this arrogance, strangers never refuse any request in a mission.

These two completely opposite extreme traits once made many people subconsciously reject foreigners.

It’s hard to describe that feeling, it’s like a stranger is just a passer-by in this world.

But more than two years have passed, and strangers have begun to live among them without any sense of incongruity. The strange behaviors of strangers no longer arouse fear and suspicion, but are instead the source of laughter.

"Ahem." Blaze coughed lightly and pointed at the Sky Kingfish. "We don't have to fight on the floating island."

"What do you mean?" The player was stunned and looked at the huge sky kingfish, and an idea came to his mind.

"Ah, ah ah!"

Chapter 1615 Conscientious Service

This is a very simple question. What should you do if you can’t put all your eggs in one basket?

Just get another basket.

Because of the [Doomsday Number], only 1000 foreigners are allowed to land on the floating island, so why not create a new sky platform?

The difficulty of a sky platform is not on the same level as that of an ocean platform. We have to consider the load-bearing capacity and the time required for continuous floating, all of which consume astonishing amounts of energy.

If we ask those great wizards to design a continuously flying island in the sky, although they can do it, I'm afraid they will have to pull out all the hair on their bodies.

But right now there is a ready-made [Flying Sky Island], and that is the Sky King Fish.

The sky kingfish is a smaller one among the giants, nearly ten meters, the length of three sky giants, and it is no problem for about 30 strangers to stand on it. However, considering the range of activities of each person, only about 15 can stand on it.

1000 plus 15 may not seem like a lot, but there is more than one sky kingfish in the world, and strangers don’t need to stand on the back of a sky kingfish like standing still.

This is a plan that requires some time to prepare. Even if it is not a one-time thing, it may take a long time.

World L, Giant's House, beside the Kinlunga Divide.

As the new headquarters of [Hermes' Traveling Hat], the Giant House is extremely prosperous, far surpassing the former Treasure Chest House headquarters. However, the Cuckoo Clock House where Herbie is located is very quiet, with only the sounds of efficient employees walking and writing.

Herbie was concentrating on looking through the documents, then suddenly picked up a gem coin and threw it towards the corner.

Snapped--

The hard gem coin hit Kulene's forehead. It was not that he failed to dodge in time, but that he wanted to catch the gem coin in a cool way. However, he roughly estimated the speed of the gem coin, so his movement was a little slow.

Being hit is not the most embarrassing thing, because being hit when you want to catch it is embarrassing.

"Ahem!" Kullene coughed, shamelessly took off the gem coin on her face and put it in her pocket. "Since you've spent money, I will uphold the principle of fair trade and tell you the information you want."

"You are the god of shamelessness."

"I am the god of smooth talk. Shamelessness is just a manifestation of my insignificant ability." Kullene was about to sit down on the sofa diagonally opposite Herbie's desk.

But before his buttocks sat down, he suddenly tensed all the muscles in his body and made an amazing one-legged air chair pose.

"Did you prepare this sofa specifically for Blaze?"

Hebi didn't say anything, but took off his glasses, crossed his fingers and looked at Kullene expressionlessly.

There is neither confession nor denial.

"Then I'll tell you this." Kullene leaned leisurely on the one-legged air mount, crossing her legs in great comfort.

"You haven't been paying attention to the floating island."

"It's all handed over to Blazer. He just needs to make the request and I just need to nod my head."

"Wow! Are you so biased?" Kulene raised her eyebrows and blew a piece of paper onto Kulene's desk as if in a provocative manner. "Then do me a favor and sign the employment application of this new employee."

"But this new employee is also a little..."

Before Kulene could finish her words, Hebi had already quickly signed her name without even reading the contents. It was so quick that Kulene felt embarrassed and almost couldn't hold on to her air chair.

"Don't you even want to take a look?"

"You have nothing to doubt, it's just..." Herbie glanced at the document. This was indeed an employment application, but it was definitely not written by the person involved.

Because the one who was going to hire was a sky kingfish, although she had never seen a sky kingfish, she was very sure that the sky kingfish did not have fingers that could write in a flourishing style.

Although monsters are called "monsters", which sounds like scary and strange creatures, that is just a name people are used to calling them. They are just powerful creatures.

So Herbie is not opposed to it, and the monster's employment application is not uncommon. Every fast-walking ostrich has an employment application with a paw print to ensure the rights of the fast-walking ostriches.

"So what's the situation?" Hebi held her chin, and when she saw Kulene's lips moving, she knew that Kulene was going to tease her about what she had just said that she just nodded.

"I paid, give me the information."

Once this was said, Cyrene was at a loss.

"Okay, okay, Blaze has completed the negotiations, but if you want to mine the ore on the floating island, you must ensure that the height of the floating island remains unchanged."

"Yeah, that [Doomsday Number]." Herbie nodded slightly, this was expected.

Combining the job application of Sky Kingfish in her hand, she roughly guessed the cause and effect.

"It looks like it may take some time to obtain the floating island ore. During this period, we will need to consume a large number of temporary teleportation towers." Hebie pinched his brows with a headache.

The continent of Atlantis is a veritable treasure trove, so no matter how much you invest in the continent of Atlantis, it is worth it, but the temporary teleportation tower is truly a [free service].

They sent special personnel to keep an eye on the temporary teleportation towers, replacing them as they were consumed, just to maintain the passage to the continent of Atlantis for most of the foreigners.

Temporary teleportation towers are not cheap.

"Ah - I'm going to complain now, just listen to me complaining." Herbie covered his forehead and sighed, "When will this silent, good devotion be rewarded?"

"Didn't you receive it?"

"Huh?" Herbie looked up.

Kullene nonchalantly played with the gem coin in her hand, and then it bounced back and landed in front of Herbie's desk.

"The Hermes Traveling Hat that we are enjoying now is the result of the silent efforts of the former members of the Chamber of Commerce."

“It’s their legacy.”

"Inheritance? That's great. The previous generation plants trees and the next generation enjoys the shade. It's a business that is sure to make money." Hebie's mood suddenly improved and he began to look through the documents in his hand.

After just turning two pages, his expression darkened again.
