Steel steam and flame

After resting for a while, the skin on his chest grew back. Cassia pulled off the dead skin and looked at the new skin silently.

If this problem is not solved at present, it will be impossible to use three methods at the same time to enhance one's strength in a short time in the future. In the dream, she already knew the antagonistic relationship between the giant whale and the dragon, and wanted to find a solution immediately. Cassia did not hold high hopes.

After the effects of the previous experiment disappeared from the body, Cassia tried three more methods separately. Although there was a vague feeling of awakening other methods, fortunately, the previous situation did not reappear, which was very important to him. That's good news.

Soon after arriving at the underground cavity where the circular devices were stored, Cassia checked their condition and made sure that no bad changes had occurred while he was in the dreamland. Then he safely carried the box and tied the two boxes with ropes. She put the Dai Sheng Sword on her back and prepared to come back after leaving the cave and move the circular device out.

Even if the things excavated from ancient ruins are very old, there will be no technical barriers due to the distance of time. In fact, Cassia increasingly believes that in this era of the empire, there has been a regression in technology and many aspects.

Without thinking much, Cassia slowly walked out of the cave. The weight of the second-generation Holy Sword, which was close to half a ton, prevented him from going very fast. It took nearly two or three hours before he slowly walked out of the cave.

It was cloudy outside, with a cool wind blowing, bringing with it the air that was not fresh after the rain. It was the smell of the decaying corpse of some kind of creature. He had not returned to the abandoned town for more than four days. Most of the fish corpses on the lake there had probably been corroded by microorganisms in the water.

The rotten smell made Cassia's hungry belly consciously block the electrical signal. The original idea was to go to the mountains and use those frozen fish to solve the stomach problem after coming out, but now...

Cassia thought he could endure it for a while, and hunger had not affected his physical fitness.

The clouds in the sky have not completely dissipated. It seems that the rain has only stopped temporarily and will continue to fall soon.

"After this rain, it will be summer for most of the empire." Cassia sighed, and before he knew it, half of the new year was almost over. Compared with the sincere young man who just entered the military school, the current me has changed not only physically, but mentally and in character, and in many aspects, I have become completely different.

The unknown sigh made Cassia feel very complicated. He returned step by step along the original path in his memory. After a few steps, he stopped where he was. His expression became strange, and then vigilance emerged, and he knew someone was coming.

I once read this sentence in a book - chase the wind, the wind will know the answer. Now Cassia seems to have truly realized the meaning of this sentence. The wind did bring the answer, but it was caught by the ears.

In his eyes, the calm scenery turned into a calm lake on a rainy day. Countless ripples representing sounds passed in circles from a distance. These ripples intertwined with each other, and their source was the sky covered by clouds.

"Is it an airship that accidentally passed by here?" Something that can make such a large-scale sound and is still in the air, Cassia can only think of an airship made of steel.

At this time, Cassia changed direction and walked a few hundred meters toward the top of the mountain. The gathering ripples became clearer. After listening carefully, she could already capture the "buzzing" sound that was impossible to hear at ordinary times. There are about dozens of them, forming a formation of airships.

"Could it be a team of small merchant ships? But when I looked up the map, I didn't remember that there was a route set by the empire over the uninhabited land of the volcano."

A few minutes later, Cassia's expression became darker a little bit. Half of those airships stopped at this time, just above the lake next to the ruins of the town. The remaining half separated at this time, flew to both sides of the mountain range, crossed the mountain range from the edge, and finally completely surrounded the volcanic no-man's land in the middle. And the closer we get here, the smaller the fluctuations in the airship's sound become. This airship formation is hiding itself. Although they believed that at the current height, people below would not be able to discover things high in the sky.

"Why is my position exposed?"

"Delya and the others are in trouble? Or has Sotagang's identity been investigated?" Cassia pulled some withered vines around her body to make a basic disguise. While he was thinking, he watched the movement on the other side of the town. Perhaps there were other possibilities. He considered, could it be that it was not himself that was exposed, but the ancient ruins themselves?

In his impression, apart from Delya and Sotagang, only Ye Jielin and the others knew his current location. It is impossible to disclose it to others. With Atuo around, it is almost impossible to intercept and decipher the information.

He couldn't think of the reason, but as several other airships finally arrived at their stopping place, Cassia also knew that these airships did not come because of the ancient ruins. ,

"Should I say it is worthy of the Holy Church, or worthy of being the Rose and the Knights of the Rose. At least this ability to obtain information is a level that I cannot reach in a short time." Cassia returned to the cave and sighed. He hid the second-generation holy sword and the box, and wanted to secretly go back to the ruins of the town before the enemies in the sky took action.

At the temporary resting place, in addition to the weapons he brought, there were also rubbings of stone paintings and strange written symbols recorded. The value of these things is too important. Even if Cassia doesn't know the specific value, the Holy Emperor's Hall behind the temple and the Rose and the Rose Knights will know it very well. Once it falls into the hands of both of them, the danger to itself will increase exponentially.

Cassia doesn't want this place to be discovered yet. If possible, letting the cave completely collapse and burying all the secrets will be his last choice. The value of those thousands of dragon bones alone was worth what he did.

I thought about breaking through the encirclement, but it was too late. Since the enemy has sent an airship over, there will definitely be ground troops cooperating with each other. The uninhabited area around the volcano is probably surrounded. Cassia's current running speed may reach the extreme, but that is under an explosion, and the endurance is not long enough. She will be easily overtaken by the airship, and the firepower she faces will be fatal.

It is impossible to hide on the way. Before the surgical development project of self-temperature control is completed, facing a surgeon with temperature sensing ability, unless there is a heat source to interfere, he will definitely be at a disadvantage. Cassia thought that if she were to command a group of people to surround herself, each team on the ground troops should be equipped with such a surgeon.

The most secure and effective way to drive away prey and narrow the encirclement.

Without thinking any more, Cassia hunched her body and, using the cover of most of the dead trees, galloped toward the ruins of the town. Perhaps the most important thing is to do what can be done well now.

"Captain Il, Captain Theodore, all the teams have arrived at the designated positions." Stian looked at the points displayed on the magnetic board, turned his head and said to the two of them, waiting for instructions.

"Once again, make sure it's correct, and then start calibrating everyone's time and testing the communication connectivity. I don't want to hear any news about accidental injuries due to communication problems later." El replied, his eyes never straying away. Panoramic map in front of you. The map was marked with various symbols, and they were fully prepared before coming here.

"By the way, the several detection machines must also conduct data connection tests simultaneously. Let all airships free up part of the computing domain of the analysis machine. There cannot be any errors in this matter."
