"What are you talking about? Don't you soak in water every day?" Zoe looked at her.
"What do you know, little brat."
The half-elf had a quiet voice, so the conversation was only heard among the four of them.
Andasu didn't take it seriously at all. However, Alulu's cheeks were flushed, and she looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated. She looked at Zoe and Andasu, and finally at Dorothy, with an expression as if she didn't know what to say, and finally she remained silent.
"What additional services are there in the luxury cabin?" Aqua asked casually.
Mullane told him: "You can have a dedicated waiter deliver food and drinks to your door, and provide room cleaning service at any time."
"Will the food be any better? Any good wine?"
Li Ang said: "It's just that the equipment in the house has been upgraded, and the service is just convenient."
"That's all."
"Miss, the service philosophy of Kiwa has always been to ensure that every customer on board has equal access to all services. The value-added purchase you made only provides convenience and does not create any essential difference," Mullane explained.
"All Kangtan helm boats are like this. Haven't you ever ridden one?" Li Ang asked.
"I'm asking because I've never sat on one before."
Among his crew members, Dorothy had most likely taken a ship of this company when she traveled between various islands during her school days, but it was strange that Aqua, who worked in human form, had never taken one.
This shows that this god really doesn't need to take the boat, and he is really here to get a free ticket.
The captain led the group to the luxury cabin. Dorothy whispered behind Leon, "He's the captain, but why is he leading us all the way?"
Apart from asking the crew to start the takeoff when they boarded the ship, Mullane never acted like a captain.
"All of Quentin's passenger ships are like this. He's called a captain, but he's more like a supervisor because the focus is on service rather than driving, even though he does have experience as a regular captain."
After Li Ang finished explaining, he asked Dorothy, "Why did I feel like you were scared just now?"
"Because he's an elf."
The half-elf lowered his head. "I don't have any inferiority complex, but some of them are very strange. I don't want to mess with them."
Li Ang touched her head and said nothing.
He had just put his hand down when a force grabbed it and pressed it onto a rough ball of hair.
It was Meluna who grabbed his hand and placed it on top of her head.
Li Ang pulled his hand back and scolded him softly, "Go into the room and take a good bath. I surrender to you."
He really didn't want this girl on board, but he couldn't stop her with force or words, and the water dragon wasn't going to work. He couldn't possibly not buy her a ticket, or else she'd capsize the boat.
"Leon, help me—"
"No need to discuss."
Meanwhile, Dorothy asked, "The luxury cabin you offer, VIP, won't be any different from what you pay for a ticket, right?"
After these words were spoken, Meimei and Farina didn't care and just looked at the aisle, but the original four members of the Star Flower Brigade and Meluna also inexplicably looked as if they were facing a great enemy.
"Oh, I'm really scared of you, no no."
Even in front of Mullane, Leon couldn't help but speak directly.
Seeing that his emotions were on the verge of a critical point, the girls immediately shut up again.
"Wow! What a nice room!"
After Mullane opened the door for everyone and left, many people present exclaimed in amazement.
Even failed saviors like Meimei and Meluna, who witnessed the death of a world, have never experienced the high-end services of the civilized world.
The name of the luxury cabin is well deserved. The decoration alone is enough to make people admire it, and many of the supplies are close to the modern urban life on Earth. Except for the lack of electrical appliances, there are some entertainment equipment from the City of Crafts, Thousand Towers City or Makena on display, which immediately attracted their attention.
There were some that even Dorothy wanted to tinker with, so their attention was immediately drawn.
"Come in quickly." Li Ang asked them to go into the room first.
Instead of going back to their rooms, they rushed into a room first. Except for Meluna, who always stood behind Leon like a ghost, there was no one else around. She stood closer to him, making him sweat a little.
Just now in the corridor, this group of beautiful girls were quite eye-catching, and now they are gathered together in the room, which is even more of a sight.
In the past, when surrounded by them, Li Ang might have felt like he was bathed in spring breeze, numb and tingling. But now he was so tired that he let them be alone and went to lie down in the house.
Perhaps because he had spent a lot of energy on the island, after settling down on the boat, no one came to disturb him for a while, and the day's trip was over quickly.
The Kangtan airship was a proper passenger ship, not a luxury cruise ship. There were no entertainment activities on board, which took away the initial novelty. In the next two days, the girls were relatively honest. Most of them studied and practiced on their own, and only came to bother Li Ang a few times.
In this way, except for a few stops to pick up people, the airship arrived near the Rudder City in the warm wind of the Floros airspace.
Finally arriving at their destination, everyone was taking a breath on the deck.
Although it is called a deck, the integrated passenger ship does not have such a part. There is only a slightly wider observation deck on the side.
"Living here I've been thinking about what we want on our boat," said Zoe.
"Oh? What are you thinking about?" Li Ang was a little curious.
Part of him was curious to hear what she had to say.
Zoe's thinking, generally speaking, is half common sense expressed in a new way of thinking, and half absurd and uninhibited ideas.
"Our own must be wider than this."
She rubbed her neck, feeling as if it had been squashed.
This feeling is because she likes sports too much, but no matter what, passenger ships are inevitably cramped in many places, even on ships owned by Quentin. The things in the luxury cabins may even aggravate this situation.
"I want a place to practice swordplay." She rolled her arms and moved her shoulders.
"I agree with that," Alulu said seriously, "Daily exercise is crucial."
"That will definitely satisfy you," Leon thought, expecting Zoe to come up with something. "Because we're not a team that wins by numbers, we can make full use of the space on the ship according to everyone's needs."
Except for the areas where water use is restricted, the rest of the space can be opened.
In fact, these things have been envisioned many times before. They mentioned them again only because the realization of this thing is about to happen, and they want to relax the various thoughts caused by the expectations by talking about them.
"I want a simple life and to live with Leon," Meluna said.
"Who asked you?" everyone couldn't help but say.
Dorothy, half hidden behind the others, pointed at Meluna and said, "I wouldn't even dare to ask for something like that."
"Because you are a fox—"
Before Meluna could finish her words, a sudden and extremely loud noise came from the air.
A series of black shadows approached rapidly and passed by the side of the ship. Due to their extremely fast speed, their own propulsion force and the noise generated by the landslide air all tilted towards the surroundings and hit the observation deck of the Kangtan Rudder airship.
Leon originally thought it was a monster, and was still wondering how the Contan rudder had made a mistake and entered the airspace where there were flying monsters, but what he saw was a series of small airships flying over.
These small boats are somewhat similar to those in the Flashing Wilderness, but their designs are far less wild. Their drivers are just as frivolous. When passing by large ships, they either laugh provocatively at the ships or whistle and shout in jest.
When they saw the Star Flower Troupe, they made particularly loud noises and flew by at high speed with all kinds of gestures.
Meluna looked at those people quietly and tightened her grip on the hilt of her sword.
"Who is that?" Andasu asked.
Mullane walked over to the observation deck from behind. "Excuse me, passengers. The Rudder City is holding a large event. I heard they're hosting a rare airship race, so enthusiasts from many places have gathered here. These people are generally a bit... not very serious."
The captain bowed and apologized: "It was our mistake. We didn't anticipate that the route we were taking would overlap with their training route."
"I don't blame you," Li Ang shook his head, "Those people obviously came here on purpose."
When he heard the noise, Old Sky Knight's experience prepared him to shoot down the monster, so he clearly saw that this group of will-o'-the-wisp came here deliberately to show off, and many of them had female companions on board, all making ghostly howls.
"Is it interesting?" Andasu looked at the direction where the group of people were going away.
"It's obvious that these actions are fun for them. Just ignore them." Li Ang pulled back the white wolf who was standing at the guardrail and about to jump out.
Not long after, the ship docked. Leon said goodbye to Mullane, took the eye-catching girls off the ship, walked through the crowd, and began to look for the docking personnel at the shipyard.
288. Stop accepting orders
"This is the city of rudders, huh?"
"Be careful, don't get carried away by the crowd." Li Ang grabbed the hands of two people beside him, but he couldn't see who they were.
Not everyone wanted to be crowded together, and people had uncomfortable expressions on their faces. Leon used the Wind Shield to push away others so that the girls would not be separated. He raised his eyes to look into the distance and found that the port was different from usual.
Now everyone is on the platform where the port is located. Since the main focus of this city is shipbuilding rather than trade and tourism, there shouldn't be many visitors. More space is given to transport ships to store shipbuilding materials.
But perhaps because of the upcoming grand ceremony, there were so many guests today, all crowded together.
After finally bringing them to a more spacious place, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Leon turned around and found that his four teammates and Meluna were looking at him viciously.
Ok?
"Let go, it hurts."
Meimei called out beside him.
His devilish hand subconsciously grabbed Meimei. Although he had become more familiar with the angle and force of contacting external objects in the past few days, the rough surface still made her feel pain.
Li Ang loosened his grip slightly, and Meimei immediately pulled her hand away, looking at him angrily: "Humph, if we weren't in the crowd, I would have almost drawn my sword and cut off your devil's hand."
"Sorry." He tried to find gloves or make a special gauntlet, but the demon's thorns were like the curse itself, easily cutting through the materials, and the convergent dimensional cutting blade would also cut through anything covered on the arm, so he could only let the wide sleeves hang down to cover it.
So they are all here, and the one they are holding in their right hand.
"Ah, do you want to hold hands with your sister?" Farina said with a smile, holding her face with one hand.
Fortunately, it wasn't the troublesome Water Dragon nearby. Leon let go of her, pretending not to notice the five sharp gazes, and pointed to the highest point in the city: "This is the Rudder City."
The girls looked around, and what caught their attention most was the increasingly high terrain.
They had raised questions when they were in the air. The whole island was like a short shuttle suspended vertically. The city's houses were built on the conical island. Looking down from the sky, it looked like a metal mountain made of metal fragments.
At the widest part in the middle of the cone is a platform that extends outward to serve as a port. Standing in this dream and looking up, the entire sky is occupied by interwoven robotic arms, cableways, and guide rails, which transport large pieces of wood to various locations and tow giant ships out of the building.
The city of rudders is like a shipyard in itself.
"It's very strange." Andasu pointed upwards. "Those buildings with hoisting machinery and ramps for transporting logs should be shipyards. This doesn't make sense."
She's right.
"That's right. Generally speaking, the more convenient it is to transport materials and the easier it is for ships to take off, the better the place is for building a port. But this is a unique wonder of the Rudder City."
Li Ang looked around and pointed at a broken brick on the side of the road: "Look."
He lifted the gravel with his toes to show what was underneath.
"Is it metal?" Andasu walked over.
"Yes, throughout the city, beneath the bricks and stones and new buildings, are the remains of a civilization that once built cities out of metal."
Farina added: "Even half of the entire island is a complex metal structure, and many parts of the city are still unknown."
"So, those lifting machines and guide rails are native to this island. No wonder I find it so strange."
Andasu looked at the machines. "Some have obviously been used for a long time, but they are still sturdy and stable. Some look new, but they are already in need of maintenance and repair."
"Ah, I remembered."
Dorothy suddenly clapped her hands. "Back in Mystram, our teacher said this city is a typical example of a place built atop the remains of a former civilization. However, there are still many questions about the purpose of these buildings. Some speculate that there are hidden things hidden within this giant metal island."
Meimei, who once lived in Qianta City, was puzzled: "You went to school in Mistrium, why are your spellcasting skills so poor? Isn't this world like my time where there are wars and teaching is impossible?"
Canary froze all of a sudden.
After a few seconds of silence, she stammered, "I went to junior college."
"No wonder. Those with good skills usually start from the intermediate level. Only those without money go to the elementary level to lay the foundation, but they also quickly become outstanding. That's actually just a preparatory school, not the main school of Mistrium, right?"
"Don't talk about that!" cried Dorothy, blushing.
Li Ang said: "It is precisely because this city is full of large-scale engineering equipment from previous civilizations, and although later generations don't know what they were used for, for modern people, besides building houses, the biggest engineering need is to build ships, so this place has gradually become the capital of ship rudders."
The guild office is at the highest point of the island, and below it are shipyards of different levels.
The higher the altitude, the better the average level of the shipyard, because the higher the island is, the more large-scale equipment left by previous civilizations, which can be used to manufacture more complex things more accurately.
After introducing the wood to the girls who looked curious, Li Ang went to look for the wood he had sent according to the information on the previous list.
Andasu looked at those instruments. Compared with other people, these things moved her more, as if they were the most beautiful sights in the world.
Outside the warehouse where the timber is stored, there are counters of various shipping companies, and not far from them is the counter of the shipyard. The goods can be taken away directly by the shipyard's equipment without leaving the warehouse.
