Chapter 2 Night Sail ()

Robben was still as numb as usual, sitting in the tower with empty eyes every day, and sitting for a day.

He still often forgot to observe the beacon and delayed the flight. All the crew members asked Metz to replace him, and Filey even mentioned this matter to Metz as the deputy captain. However, Metz's answer was not at all: "He did a good job, and I have never seen anyone better than him."

The crew members remained silent about Metz's behavior that they simply wanted to write the word "covering" on their face, and Feli was seriously warned by Metz!

"Don't touch Robben!"

Our Master Felix could only smile bitterly. On this ship, Metz's words were God's teachings. There was once a ungrateful crew member who couldn't understand it. One day, he finally went to "chat and chat" with Robben. The next day, the crew member got a three-month salary and was thrown off the airship by Metz. As for how this crew member returned to his hometown of three countries, it was not what Metz should consider.

Robben was unaware of all this. Even when the crew member "chats" with him, he did not show any unnecessary feelings. Robben felt more comfortable with the alienation and isolation of the crew. Now, he just wanted to stay alone.

Robben was not in good spirits today. Although he was not in good spirits every day, today it was because he was dragged out in bed in the middle of the night.

Roben had a big question mark in his head. When he was dragged to the deck, he saw everyone running out of the bedroom, and then hurriedly ran towards his position.

Going to sail? This thought flashed through Robben's head. He looked at the dark night sky outside. The moon had only a small crescent moon hanging in the sky. Robben denied this idea again.

It is very dangerous for airships to fly at night. Robben is very clear about this. When setting up the beacons for airships, for the sake of the future, the beacons are basically on straight lines connecting the two places, so that the route can be shortened as much as possible. This means that many beacons must be set up in some rarely visited terrain such as cliffs, jungle and waterfalls. In these unmanned areas, monsters often appear. The process of setting up the beacons is also a process of detecting whether the route is safe. If you do not encounter a monster that can pose a great threat to the airship when setting up the beacons, then this route will be established.

But all this is based on the airship flying during the day. At night, the huge magic arrays and magic crystals at the bottom of the airship are definitely much more conspicuous than the moon and stars in the sky. Flying at night is simply to express to all the monsters that can attack the airship: I am here, I am here!

But now everything that happened on the deck is saying: the ship is about to set sail!

Robben was wondering, and there were crisp and rapid footsteps on the stairs behind him. When Robben turned around, Mess had already appeared in the tower. Before Robben could ask, Mess had already stepped forward and grabbed Robben's arm: "Idiot! What else do you want to do here tonight? Can you see anything else besides the moon and the navigation beacon!" Robben was stunned. Mess had already pulled Robben down the stairs. Robben let Mess pull him to the deck. Just as he was about to ask what he should do, Mess suddenly stopped. Robben quickly stopped and did not hit Mess.

"Captain Metz, when will we set sail? We are in a hurry!"

Robben saw a middle-aged man in ordinary gray clothes blocking the two of them and looked at Mess with a smile. Although he looked polite, Robben could feel a hint of unconcealed arrogance in the middle-aged man's eyes.

"Mr. Seit! My crew is preparing with all their strength, and we will set sail soon. I promise that you and your master will be in the territory of the Katon Empire before the sun rises tomorrow."

The middle-aged man had no displeasure at all for Mess' hard words: "If you can let us arrive early, we will be grateful, and we will give you a generous extra reward!" The middle-aged man bowed slightly, smiled slightly at Robben and Mess, and turned and left.

Robben noticed that there were seven or eight people standing on the other half of the deck. The man who seemed to be the leader in the middle was covered in a black cloak, and even his face was covered in a hood. At this distance, Robben could only roughly infer from his figure that this was a man.

The middle-aged man in gray came to the man in black and bent down slightly and whispered something, with a very respectful expression. When the middle-aged man finished speaking, the man in black nodded and led the way to the cabin.

"Arrogant guy" Mess hummed coldly.

It seems that they sailed in the middle of the night because of them! "What did they transport? Do you have to set sail now?" Robben withdrew his gaze and turned to ask Mess beside him. But he found that Mess suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at him, with surprise in his beautiful eyes. Robben realized that this was the first time he had taken the initiative to talk to this beautiful girl after he came to this world.

"They didn't have anything to be transported, they just wanted to arrive at the Katon Empire before tomorrow." Mes's cold frost on his face just now disappeared in an instant.

"But it's already late at night. Isn't it too dangerous to sail at night?"

"They paid a lot of money, Robben!" Mess's face was full of seriousness.

"It's more than ten times that of normal, which is equivalent to our income for more than a month, one tenth of a year, and we only need one night. Moreover, going to the Katon Empire is mainly to cross the Paser Snow Mountain. There will be no large flying monsters in such a harsh environment as the snow mountain. Moreover, when we rise to the extreme height, I am 80% sure we will not be in danger."

Robben saw Mes's dear expression, "Don't take risks" and swallowed it back: what this woman believed was difficult to change. Mess looked at Robben's expression and guessed seven or eight points, "I have explained to all the crew members. They are willing to take risks. In fact, the most important thing is that this route has always been very calm and has never had large monsters, so I can convince them that I will not take risks with their lives casually." Robben planned to completely rot what he was about to say.

"Now you don't have to look for the beacon anymore. Anyone can see it at night. Just go back to the cabin and stay honestly. Yes, but be ready to fight and escape at any time." Mess thought for a while, and finally added another sentence.

"Uh" Robben nodded mechanically, turned around and wanted to go back. Suddenly, his arms tightened, but he was grabbed by Mets again.

When Mess saw Robben still looking desperate, he said helplessly: "You should go to my place. I'm not at ease if you are alone. If something really happens, I'm afraid I won't have time to find you then."

Robben felt warm in his heart and felt sad. He thought that Robben should be very happy.

"You go to the captain's office to wait for me first, and I will check the situation of the other crew members, and I will be back soon." After saying that, Mes left hurriedly.

Robben came to the door of the captain's room alone, but the door was not locked. Robben pushed open the door and walked in. The captain's room was naturally Mess' private space. Although Mess had a special liking for Robben, this was the first time Robben entered Mess' room. Robben felt that looking at a girl's room, he could directly understand many things that this girl usually did not show in front of others.

In Robben's impression, Mess is a woman who hides pride and courage under her weak and beautiful appearance. The picture Robben imagined before coming in was a simple, clean, simple, elegant and generous room, and may even be a small mirror. However, what he saw now surprised Robben. Mess' bed was very, very large, accounting for almost half of the size of the room. Some small puppets were thrown everywhere on the bed, and a big pillow. Mess sleeps with this every day. A vivid picture appeared in Robben's mind, and then he quickly shook his head and threw the evil image out of his mind.

Robben found many interesting gadgets in Mays' room, some beautiful necklaces, small stones, and various small mirrors, etc. Robben was curious when he saw these things, which side of this woman was closer to her original personality?

It has to be said that human curiosity is innate, especially when this curiosity turns into an evil desire for knowledge, then nothing can stop the person from understanding what he wants to understand.

Even a person like Robben, who is completely desperate, probably cannot escape this vortex. Robben is not at all ashamed of being carpet-style searching for a girl's room...

Robben stared at the cute patterns on the carpet, on the walls, on the quilts, and on the fine patterns on the big pillow, and Robben had carefully searched the whole room, but he did not find any exciting or prohibited items. This meticulous woman has long planned to arrange me here! Robben shook his head, feeling unhappy.

Robben casually looked at the small souvenirs that Metz bought in various countries. "Yeah! It seems that she has been there for too long." Robben frowned. Such a long time was enough to run the airship all over, but Metz has not come back yet.

Slowly, a trace of bad premonition slowly caught Robben's heart.

Suddenly, a loud "bang" sound came into Robben's ears, and Robben felt the airship shake heavily.

Something happened!

Robben grabbed the door and was about to pull the door handle, but the door was pushed open heavily. It was Mess who had not returned for a long time when Robben felt "shocked" in his heart when he saw Mess.

Robben had never seen Messe's face so pale. Although he seemed to be calming, there was an unconcealable horror in his beautiful eyes.

Before Robben opened his mouth, Mess had already grabbed Robben's hand, "Go away!" As he said that, he had already pulled Robben up and ran to the deck. Robben staggered behind Mess, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Mess didn't stop at his feet for a moment, and he spit out two words dryly in his mouth: "Warcraft!"

When Robben heard the word "Warcraft", his heart suddenly became cold. In the dark night, on an airship that could not reach the sky or the ground, it would definitely be a disaster. If Mess could be so panicked, it would definitely not have encountered those ordinary monsters.

"I don't know where this damn thing flew from. I'm sure it wasn't around here. It...it's too big!" Mess's voice was filled with fear, "If such a big monster is moving near the route, there is no possibility that it will not be discovered. Damn! Damn! What is this for!?"

This was the first time Robben saw Mes so disobedient. Mess cursed the damn monster hysterically while pulling Robben to the deck, "The airship may not last long, so he has to jump off the airship and escape. Will the wind spirit reel carry it?" Robben nodded quickly. The wind spirit reel that Mess mentioned is a low-level magic reel. The magician sealed magic on a magic reel with special materials through special methods. When the scroll is opened, the magic sealed in this reel will automatically take effect. The function of the wind spirit reel is to impose a wind spirit technique on the person who is closest to someone who can float in the air for a short period of time. Then the magic will slowly fail, and people will slowly fall to the ground. This reel is a must-have item for airship personnel who sail for many years. As long as they are on the airship, they will be carried by their side regardless of food, drink, defecation, and this reel has saved countless lives.

Robben noticed that when Mays said the scroll, he turned around and looked at him, put his other hand on the bag around his waist, and there was a question in his eyes. When he saw Robben pulling out his scroll, he took back the hand on the bag and walked with his head in his head.

Robben's heart trembled: Could she be giving me her scroll?

Robben knew clearly that although everyone had this kind of scroll, it did not mean that this kind of scroll was very cheap. Things that were related to magical items were extremely expensive. One roll was based on the high rewards and life of the airship crew, and only one of them was his own. Mess only had a wind spirit scroll on his body.

Robben felt the warmth coming from Metz's hand. It seemed that as long as he was not dead, he could not forget this woman who moved him so much!

Metz pushed open the hatch of the deck, and a strong wind came over, almost blowing down Robben, who had just climbed onto the deck.

Almost all the crew members stood on the deck, each one was far away from the side of the ship, with a pale face, holding the wind spirit scroll tightly in his hands, and staring at the dark night sky with fear.

Mess grabbed a crew member who was running by in panic: "Go! Go to the kitchen and release Fileli, and he tied it to the barrel." The crew member seemed to be frightened and looked at Mess blankly, opening his mouth wide but couldn't say anything. "Bad!" Mess slapped the crew member hard, raised the volume and shouted: "I say - go to the kitchen - release Fileli!" Mess' expression was a little terrible. In the end, Mess had the upper hand on weekdays. The crew member finally closed his mouth wide, responded, and rolled and crawled towards the kitchen.

Mess looked at Ye Sky with a expressionless face and said, "I won't agree to this voyage even if Filee beats him to death. I put some drugs to make him faint and tie him to the kitchen. Now it's time to wake up." Robben was not surprised that Mess could do such a thing. This woman sometimes did nothing to do.

Robben noticed that the "culprits" who were tonight at the door of the cabin were standing there. The man in the black robe was giving instructions to the middle-aged man. Finally, the middle-aged man waved to the people behind him. The people behind him untied the long cloth bag that had been carrying behind him, but they were all long swords. These people were guarding the black robe with swords, but they did not move at all to the monsters outside the airship.

Robben turned around and noticed the monsters outside the airship. With the faint moonlight, Robben could see a hazy black shadow swimming outside the airship like a ghost. Robben saw a huge gap on one edge of the airship. Think of the loud noise just now and there was something to do with this gap. The airflow around the airship was extremely disordered. You could hear huge wings slapped in the air in the air, and a wave of low roars like muffled thunder shaking back and forth in the air.

After a few minutes of careful observation, Robben finally understood why Mess was so desperate. When the monster occasionally approached the airship, he took advantage of the light of the magic circle under the airship, Robben roughly estimated how big this monster was.

The most aggressive flying monsters encountered by airships usually only have the size of two to three adults, and some small monsters will not attack the airship. It is not difficult to use a mechanical heavy crossbow and poisonous arrow on the airship to resist the monsters to deal with some sudden situations.

The airship is equipped with a special poison juice. This poison juice is strongly toxic to most monsters, but it has no effect on humans. Ordinary monsters cannot withstand the attack of crossbow arrows soaked in poison juice.

However, Robben can be sure of this monster now. This is a monster as big as several adult elephants. The impact alone is enough for the airship to crash.

This monster seemed to have some concerns about airships that were several times larger than it and was not in a hurry to attack. However, Robben knew that this was only temporary, and the huge gap on the side of the ship was a test before the attack.

The airship was falling continuously, and Robben was trembling all over his body with the cold wind. The roars of the monsters outside the airship became more and more rapid, and contact with the airship became more and more frequent. Now there is another gap on the side of the airship.

Mess sat next to a huge wooden barrel on the deck, looking up at the endless night sky above. The wind blew up a long hair, looking a little weak. Feli was walking here from the direction of the kitchen. Judging from his walking posture, Mess' medicine was very heavy. Just now, several crew members who could not resist the fear and torture screamed and tore open the scroll, and rushed out of the airship like crazy. The huge black shadow outside the airship swung quickly for a few times. Several crew members who were screaming were no longer moving in the blink of an eye, and a sound of shaking bones blew in the night sky.

The airship fell into silence, and all the crew members squeezed in the middle of the deck to hold their breath, not daring to make a sound. However, the twisted faces and fearful eyes mean that these people were on the verge of collapse. However, the group of people at the cabin door were still standing there without any movement.

A strange thought suddenly flashed through Robben's mind: I should be dead this time!
