Chapter 133 Floating City

Chapter 133 "Wandering City"

After the dean of the college left his office, Li Xiangyang still felt a little dizzy. This was really unreal.

He was promised a lot of benefits just now, including but not limited to job promotion, salary increase, and support from forces in the Endless Sea, etc. These are all obvious benefits, not to mention other hidden gains. Just because he is Qiao Yang's class teacher.

What's outrageous is that he actually saw something called flattery on the dean's smiling face. Should this thing appear on his face?

Li Xiangyang doesn't know, but he can be sure of one thing now, that is, his student has become successful, and he has also received unimaginable benefits. The most important thing is that their relationship seems to be... not bad?

As for the causes that contributed to this result, we have to start talking about four years ago.

Qiao Yang is an orphan. Only the teachers who have taught him know this, and Li Xiangyang is naturally one of them.

But to be honest, with the huge population base and the special background of Blue Star, there are many orphans, more than you can imagine.

Fortunately, the authorities above have formulated countermeasures. Otherwise, countless homeless children would die on the streets every year or become miserable experimental subjects.

Li Xiangyang was also an orphan, so he was naturally more concerned about Qiao Yang, who had the same fate as him.

It is precisely because of this that Qiao Yang, who usually just learns various knowledge to enrich himself, has a good relationship with this class teacher. This kind of thing can be found out after a little inquiry.

This is why the dean did not hesitate to put down his face to please Li Xiangyang, and thus indirectly please Qiao Yang. After all, from the reports flying all over the sky, it is certain that after the undisputed newcomer king officially enters the Endless Sea, he will definitely be able to Above the vast majority of people, this is an existence that can create miracles.

Qiao Yang didn't know that his class teacher had received huge benefits because of him, but it had nothing to do with him and he didn't care about it.

At this time, night had fallen in the mission sea area, and the heat of the day had been washed away by the continuous rain. The night wind blew through the hair, and it was actually cooler than the nascent sea area.

So Qiao Yang added another modifier of extreme weather.

"Captain, the map has been drawn. Do you want to take a look at it?"

Yasir walked into the captain's cabin, holding a map of the sea that had just been drawn not long ago, and he could still smell some residual ink fragrance.

"Well, of course, bring it over."

Qiao Yang put his arms on the map table and his eyes were half-closed, but if you look closely, you can see that his expression is a little unnatural.

However, this abnormality only lasted for a moment and then returned to normal. He took the map from Yasir's hand, spread it out on the table, and examined it carefully.

It shows the topography of the entire mission sea area in detail, including a total of seven large and small islands where supplies can be landed for a long time, as well as three small islands similar to Fish-Man Island.

Some special buildings are also clearly marked, and the general direction of ocean currents is also recorded. This is definitely a detailed enough map. With it, whether it is earning points or completing subsequent challenge tasks, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

At this time, in addition to the two islands of Jiaolian Volcano and White Bone Ruins, Qiao Yang also learned the names of the remaining islands.

Starting from the Jiaolian volcano, going clockwise downward are the White Bone Relics, Lake in the Sea, Jingluo Island, Banner Island and Waning Moon Bay.

There is also a very large island in the center, which was fully revealed after Yasir's drawing.

This very large island is in the shape of a gourd and is very complete in shape. However, it is also the only island among all the islands that does not have a name. For convenience, Qiao Yang called it Calabash.

There are three ports in the upper part of the gourd, but they are not like natural ports. It is not known whether there are intelligent creatures living on them. Everything can only be determined after landing.

In addition, there is a broken island on the lower right side of Hulu, called Suiyu Rock. There is a small island called Bird Whistle Tower on the upper left side. There is also an unnamed island sandwiched between Haizhong Lake and Whale Luo Island. Bare, Qiao Yang's fleet was nearby at this time, heading towards Libes Port.

This is the best port of call for Yasir after careful consideration, because there is a mountain nearby and two rivers that cross in series, which is very suitable for supplies and rest.

Challenge missions usually last three days or two, depending on the length of subsequent missions.

"The map is well drawn. I am very satisfied. I will remember you for a thousand battle achievements."

"Well, Captain, this map was not made by me alone. Jin also contributed a lot."

Yashil paused for a moment and said these words instead of accepting the credit directly.

"Then it will be credited to Jin with 500 battle merits. This map is of high value."

Qiao Yang waved his hand and said very generously that he was never stingy with his own people, and at the current stage, all the battle achievements obtained by the crew would be consumed by him and used for blessing ceremonies, both inside and outside. If it's in bad hands, it's almost like having sex for nothing.

"I would like to thank you for your gift, and I will resign."

Mr. Navigator, no, he should be called Mr. Second Mate now.

The second mate bowed, still maintaining his aristocratic elegance, and exited the captain's cabin.

Just after Yasir left, an idea flashed in Qiao Yang's mind, and he rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.

He suddenly discovered a problem, which was the reward redemption mechanism under the combat merit system.

At the current stage, blessing your crew members or awakening their bloodline can perfectly consume this part of the battle merit, thus achieving a balance in this aspect.

But in the long run, there are hidden dangers in doing so, so he now needs a more complete reward system, not just for the current crew, but to set the tone for future forces.

"It's decided, let's leave it to Nasreen and the others to discuss."

Qiao Yang thought for a while and then decided to screw it up. Although he proposed this system, he could leave it to his subordinates to improve it. Do you really think that Qiao's salary was in vain?

It's not surprising that he only remembered this now. After all, the ship was full of people who were loyal to him, and it didn't matter whether he was paid or not rewarded.

Judging from the current situation, even if Qiao Yang asked his men to hunt every day for food and clothing, there would be no problem. This is the charm of die-hard loyalty.

Suddenly, Qiao Yang trembled violently, took a breath of cold air, and then showed a salty expression.

"Ahem, couldn't you tell me in advance?"

Tina's complaining voice came from under the table, and along with a rustling sound, she came out covering her mouth, revealing beautiful eyes that were one-third angry and seven-fold helpless, just like that fan-shaped statistical chart Became a sperm.

After she said this, she made a swallowing gesture, then put her hands on her hips and stared, waiting for Qiao Yang to give her an explanation.

"Oh, please understand. You know, sometimes it's too late for this. Okay, don't be angry. Come on, let me show you something fun."

The corner of Qiao Yang's mouth curled up. He would not admit that he did it on purpose.

"what?"

After hearing her sweetheart's very sincere explanation, the girl, who was just a little dissatisfied, quickly forgot about the matter and moved her head over in confusion. Little did she know that someone had been waiting for this moment, and the simple prey took the bait. !

"ah!"

"Of course it's me!"

"You big liar, Sister Nia, save me!"

The rain is as moist as beads, and dreams are traceless. A rose is indistinguishable when climbing a rope.

After a long time, Tina sat on the side angrily, dressed neatly, as if nothing had happened, but seeing her muttering "liar" from time to time, you can tell how deep her resentment is now.

Qiao Yang pretended not to see it, girls are like this, and they will be fine after a while.

Looking at the pitch-black night, Qiao Yang stretched his hand out the window. The rain was still falling, as if it hadn't stopped since the giant whale appeared in the deep sea. Is this also part of the extreme weather in the mission waters?

He couldn't be sure, but this was definitely not a normal phenomenon. A legendary sea monster was not enough to cause such a large-scale abnormal weather that lasted for such a long time, even if it was drizzle.

Suddenly, Qiao Yang seemed to hear something. His eyelids opened subconsciously, and he pricked up his ears, preparing to listen again.

To his disappointment, after waiting for more than ten minutes, he did not hear the sound just now, only the slight movement of drizzle drifting in the wind.

"drift……"

Just when Qiao Yang was about to give up, the vague voice sounded again. Now he was sure that it was definitely not an illusion.

"Boss, what's wrong?"

Tina noticed something strange about Qiao Yang, and hurriedly stood up and asked, the little emotion in her eyes completely gone.

"It's nothing. I heard some strange noises. It may have something to do with the rain. Please be quiet for now~"

Qiao Yang waved his hand, explained briefly, and then listened patiently again.

Finally, the hard work paid off, and after a few minutes, a very clear voice sounded in his ears.

"Welcome to...Wandering City!"

Now Qiao Yang finally determined where the sound came from. It turned out to be the upper body leather armor he had been wearing. This excellent quality armor was made from the skin of floating fish.

At this time, its entry effect was flickering slightly, floating and whispering, allowing him to occasionally hear some interesting news.

This equipment entry had long been forgotten by Qiao Yang in some unknown corner. Unexpectedly, the entry's effect was suddenly triggered today.

"Wandering City, does it have anything to do with the rain?"

Blue Star has never recorded any information about Wandering City, which resulted in him not having any understanding of this strange place.

But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if he doesn't know, there must be someone on the ship who knows.

"Aurea, come here, I have something to ask you."

"Yes, Captain."

Before the voice could even finish, the spatial fluctuations dispersed, and the Queen's figure appeared directly beside Qiao Yang.

"Have you ever heard of this place called Floating City?"

After hearing Qiao Yang's question, Oriya lowered her head and thought for a moment, then asked:

"Where did you hear about this place? If it's not handled well, we could be in a bit of trouble."

"The leather armor on my body is made of the skin of floating fish. It has some special effects. Is this place scary? Even you are so afraid."

Qiao Yang's curiosity was instantly aroused. Oriath was once a demigod, and even she found it troublesome, so this place must be quite interesting.

"You are probably being targeted by Wandering City. Let me first tell you where this place is. You should have a general understanding after listening to me."

Oriath nodded to express her understanding, and then began to tell the relevant information and special features of Wandering City.

"The floating city is alive. It usually appears as a small port city that can move freely, seducing captains or fleeing people who have been drifting at sea for many days. Of course, this person is not limited to humans, but all intelligent and non-intelligent creatures. Within the confines of His deception.”

"Once a creature enters the Floating City, as long as it stays there overnight, it will be irreversibly transformed into a floating fish, which is the raw material for making your leather armor."

Qiao Yang chuckled lightly. Since Oriath was still in the mood to joke, it meant that it wasn't a big deal. It was just a little difficult at best.

"The beings who are transformed into floating fish will retain their will, but will lose all their power. At that time, they will be no different from ordinary sea fish. If the person being transformed is a spellcaster, they will also lose their spellcasting ability. Moreover, This is an irreversible transformation, which means that even advanced restoration techniques cannot undo this transformation unless a god personally takes action."

"But here's the problem. The Floating City is alive. He has divinity and can be regarded as a demi-god. Although he is not powerful, all the floating fish have his breath. This transformation is comparable to a curse placed by the gods themselves. , it is extremely difficult to get rid of it, so unless there are great benefits, the guy who was transformed into a floating fish will probably never be able to change back."

"As for the origin of Wandering City and why it became like this, I'm sorry, I don't know very well. I only know that his appearance seems to be related to a tragedy."

"Unfortunately, you seem to be being targeted, but the solution is also very simple. Either throw away this leather armor, or deal with the floating city itself. Neither of these seems to be difficult for you."

Qiao Yang heard the answer he wanted, but another thought suddenly came to his mind, so he said directly:

"Do you think this thing can be made into a boat?"

His question confused Her Majesty the Queen, but she still seriously thought about the feasibility of the matter. As her thoughts turned, she nodded and gave a definite answer and further conjectures.

"I think it's okay. I even say that if the legendary tragedy is true, you can try the third possibility. This guy may be able to be conquered."

"Haha, come with me and tell me what the tragedy is."

Qiao Yang laughed loudly, his eyes filled with excitement. He had never been resistant to such mysterious things. This was the first local legend of the Endless Sea that he had come into contact with so far.

Wait, legend?

He felt as if he had caught something. Qiao Yang suddenly remembered the title he had received before - Legend Creator. Could he have been involved in a certain legendary story?

After careful consideration, this possibility is not low. Floating City must be considered a legend. The danger is high or not, but it is not low either.

"Captain, are you listening?"

Oria's gentle voice pulled the distracted Qiao Yang back. Looking at the queen's helpless expression, even a shameless person couldn't help but cough dryly and replied:

"Ahem, I just thought of something else. Tell me, if I lead you to conquer Wandering City, would it be considered a legend?"

Before Oriath could reply, Tina on the side couldn't help but laugh, and then said directly:

"Boss, are you looking down on your fleet too much? If you can't even be considered a legend, who else here is qualified, those poor bastards who break into pieces at a touch? Haha..."

Well, it’s true, Tina is a real member of the chaos camp, and her main character is to fear that the world will not be in chaos.

"If you want to conquer Wandering City, you won't be able to understand his past."

Oriath did not deny what Tina said. Although she was a little afraid of this mysterious place, it was just a fear. It was absolutely impossible to make her afraid.

"Okay, go on, I'm listening."

"I hope so~"

I'm stuck, I'm a little late in adding the update, I'm sorry.
