Chapter 359: Enemy Appears

"What are you thinking!"

Looking at Tina standing in front of him, Carl mercilessly flicked her head.

Looking at the children in the village following behind her, he slowed down his tone and said earnestly:

"It's okay to let you visit the spaceship, but if you let you drive a spaceship... can you understand how to drive this thing? You haven't even memorized the power armor drawings I gave you, and you still want to drive a spaceship? I think you look like a spaceship!"

Carl was able to remain restrained in the first half of the words, but when he thought of Tina's request just now, he regained his somewhat harsh tone.

"But I saw that you were so relaxed when you drove the spaceship~"

With her head down, Tina kept touching and separating her two fingers little by little, her voice full of grievances.

Hearing this, Carl picked up a stone.

Using magic tricks, he engraved a giant rune on the smoother side in the blink of an eye.

As the rune emitted light, the temperature of the whole stone began to rise rapidly.

The stone was thrown into a nearby puddle, and with a "hiss", a cloud of white mist rose up.

Pointing at the stone in the puddle that was getting hotter and evaporating water, Carl said expressionlessly: "Do you understand? Try it."

"Hey~, this is very difficult. I haven't used magic tricks yet..."

Tina understood Carl's real meaning just after she finished half of her words.

Her expression immediately became a little awkward, but thinking of the promise she made to her friends, she held on and stopped talking.

Seeing her like this, Carl sighed helplessly.

"Don't even think about taking the spaceship out for a ride. I'll take you around the area with the shuttle. In terms of speed, the shuttle is much faster than the spaceship itself."

As a person with good empathy, Carl understands Tina's idea of ​​showing off after worshipping a powerful master.

But showing off is showing off, and it's better not to do things that may cause danger.

So, he planned to take these children to fly around the sky twice in person.

"Really?"

Hearing that Carl agreed to take her and others on the spaceship, Tina immediately raised her head, and her big blue-green eyes seemed to have regained their brilliance.

With a helpless sigh, Carl turned and walked towards the shuttle, and waved to the children with his back.

"Wow~, so awesome!"

Following Carl on the spaceship, a group of little kids looked here and touched there, and everyone was very excited.

In order to prevent them from accidentally touching the operating table, Carl directly blocked the corresponding mechanism and used his psychic power to directly control the mechanical center and spirit intelligence of the shuttle.

After turning on the gravity adjustment, Carl sat in the driver's seat and controlled the spaceship to take off slowly.

Amid the children's exclamations, the spaceship suspended in the air suddenly accelerated and flew out.

The surrounding scenery retreated quickly, and only by looking at the distant sky could the children inside the spaceship keep up with the speed of the spaceship.

However, after just two turns in the sky, Carl frowned.

It wasn't that operating the spacecraft was a burden for him, but the radar of the shuttle detected a suspicious "signal" in the distance, or - a magical aura.

'It looks like an airship fleet, at least sixteen of them. Although the ships are not big, they seem to hide a lot of magic props... Wait! Why does this reaction look like a construct? Hiding in the clouds, it seems that it has some bad intentions. '

Reading this information directly from the control center, Carl controlled the spacecraft with one mind.

The children couldn't put down such a magical spacecraft, but after turning around twice, everyone's excitement gradually subsided.

Coincidentally, Carl suggested going back to the village to roast sweet potatoes, and it was the Eruden way of eating in his hometown Hongye Township.

So the children nodded their heads quickly.

The spacecraft was parked again at the previous place. The rune stone was still emitting heat, but the temperature was not as high as at the beginning.

Carl simply built a stove with clay molding, and then made a few rune stones with the same method as before, and threw the sweet potatoes in.

Leaving a can of maple syrup, he asked Tina to look after the children and returned to the village.

The adults in the village had just noticed that Carl was flying the spaceship with the children, but before they could worry, Carl drove the spaceship back.

This action relieved the village chief who was worried that he would kidnap the children and threaten the village.

But just as the old village chief was relieved, Carl came to visit and brought some not-so-good news.

"Old village chief, do you know that there are sixteen medium-sized airships hidden in the sea of ​​clouds southeast of the floating island?"

As soon as the voice fell, Carl got the answer from the old village chief's surprised expression, he didn't know.

At least from the expression he showed, he "should not know".

But soon, the old village chief proved that he "really didn't know".

Because he asked his wife to find several other old wizards and warlocks in the village.

After repeating Carl's words verbatim, the old village chief asked with a worried tone: "Those kids who went out on adventures wouldn't think of returning home in so many airships, right?"

As he said this, he secretly looked at Carl.

"Whose good man returns home with so many ships? This is not the way to show off to fellow villagers! They must be pirates! When I was helping Mr. Carl mail things, the people in Eclipse Port told me that pirates have been a serious problem recently. I suspect these people are pirates!"

In the crowd, the wizard who helped Carl mail the video tape home to report his safety swung his arms and spoke excitedly.

He admitted that he could not beat Carl and his group, but he was still confident that he could fight these pirates whose origins were unknown.

"If they are really pirates, we are willing to help."

After speaking, Carl took out a portable phantom device and played the location of the pirates and the phantom map of the floating island.

Expressing his willingness to lend a helping hand, Carl made the excuse that he was still roasting sweet potatoes with the children, and then turned and left.

Watching his back disappear on the street, the old village chief turned around and sighed, "This young man seems to have guessed what we are hiding here... Alas, when Tina left, I shouldn't have let her take the notes that our ancestors got from the giants."

"Who knew that the girl would go out to take a risk and meet a 12th-level mechanic who specializes in giant runes? Look at the spaceship in the sky, my God, even if the ancestor is resurrected, I don't think he can knock that thing down!"

In the crowd, a muscular arcane knight uncle said in a muffled voice.

The others also nodded subconsciously.

Looking at the reactions of the villagers, the old village chief was overwhelmed.

"Now is not the time to talk about this! What about the suspected pirate fleet? If Carl and his men helped, how can we repay them?

Let him know about the Giant King's treasure and those antiques? But what if they think we have hidden part of the treasure?

Although our ancestors did make some achievements in finding the Giant King's treasure, they still didn't find it. But even if we say so, they have to believe it!"

As he said this, the old village chief picked up the staff in his hand again and slammed it hard on the ground.
