The Magician of Cultivation

"There must be overlaps between the world of cultivation and this world."

Although there is no conclusive evidence, Li Yu firmly believes it.

The magic rail car was extremely fast. A quarter of an hour later, it drove out of the underground and stopped in front of a huge complex of buildings.

Li Yu stepped off the magic track car and was instantly shocked by the scene before him.

The trading port in front of us covers an area of ​​at least 50 kilometers and is evenly divided into two major areas.

The left side is the port entrance and the right side is the port exit area.

From the outside, you can see huge objects floating in the air, which should be the magic airships.

Li Yu, Yun Yi and the other two boarded the magic ferry in the trade port and headed towards the exit area on the right.

Yun Yi knew very well that Li Yu was a "country bumpkin".

It was estimated that he had never left the Liaocheng area, so when he was riding on the shuttle bus, he was introduced to the situation of the trade port.

As the largest city in the southern part of Xueyan State, Liaocheng is a must-pass place for trade.

Goods from all over Xueyan Kingdom, and even trades with neighboring countries, need to be transferred here.

Liaocheng Magic Airship currently has 6 main routes, all of which are officially operated by Xueyan Kingdom.

The destination of this trip is Xijing City, and you need to take the "Will" airship heading northeast.

"The airship Will?"

"That's right," Yun Yi exclaimed, "Among the magic boats currently in service in the kingdom, the Will airship is considered to be of top size."

"The airship is equipped with two captains, the captain is responsible for the safety of the airship, and the deputy captain is responsible for the daily navigation of the airship."

"For a high-quality airship like this, the escort team is extremely powerful. They are all from the military. Usually, there are 5 other warriors, 50 warriors, and at least 100 martial arts apprentices."

"There are also numerous magic circles carved on the airship, as well as two main guns and 2 secondary guns."

"The main gun's shells are equivalent to the peak attack strength of level 5, while the secondary guns are at the beginning of level 5."

“Even a fifth-order peak warrior would not be a match for the Will airship.

Of course, no fifth-level warrior dares to openly confront the kingdom."

Following Yun Yi's explanation, Li Yu gained an intuitive understanding of the Will airship.

"Li Yu, we are three caravans setting out together this time."

"The other two are the caravans of the Li and Zhao families in Liaocheng. They should have recruited adventurers to escort them, so their safety in the early stages is guaranteed to a certain extent."

"Early stage?" Li Yu asked doubtfully.

"Well, the route of the Will airship is to go east to Yucheng first, then turn northwest to pass through Pulan City, then turn northeast to Xijing City, and finally reach Junwu City in the north of the kingdom."

"The Li family caravan will only go to Yucheng, the Zhao family caravan will go to Pulan City, and the Hongyu Chamber of Commerce will go to Xijing City. Do you understand?"

Li Yu nodded.

If someone is targeting the Hongyu Chamber of Commerce, then the road from Plan City to Xijing City is the best time to take action.

As the two were talking, they soon arrived at the location where the "Will" airship was docked.

Li Yu looked at the huge ship standing on the open space in front of him, which looked like a prehistoric beast, and was speechless for a long time.

"This...is this a fucking boat?"

The thing in front of us, called an airship, is over a thousand meters long, more than two hundred meters wide, and the cabin is almost twenty meters high.

If it were put in modern times, it would be three times the size of an ordinary conventional-powered aircraft carrier.

On both sides of the airship, a side panel was lifted up at regular intervals.

Connecting pallets about ten meters wide stretch down from the hull, and countless cargoes are being transported into the hull continuously via the pallets.

There are three floors on the surface of the airship.

The first floor occupies the largest area, with about a hundred rooms. The rooms decrease as you go up, with only about twenty rooms on the top floor.

Of course, the empty space on the second and third floors was not wasted and was transformed into open-air platforms for guests to enjoy the beautiful sky view.

With this design, it is obvious that the higher the floor you live on, the more prestigious your status becomes.

"Two respected magicians..."

Under the airship, a young man dressed in a neat warrior uniform was waiting respectfully.

Looking at Li Yu and Yun Yi getting off the shuttle bus, he immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying, "I'm waiting for you here on the orders of President Zhu of Liaocheng Hongyu Chamber of Commerce."

"Lead the way," Yun Yi said with a stern expression and a slight nod.

"Yes, please follow me."

The young man led the way in front, and everyone quickly went around to the other side of the "Will" and started boarding the ship via the passenger ladder.

As Li Yu walked, he used his spiritual sense to explore the airship under his feet.

The main body of the airship is made of three-meter-thick mixed metal, with densely packed magic circles engraved on the surface, and the outside of the magic circles is also coated with paint.

This paint is also a magical item, prepared by alchemists. It allows airships to travel freely in various environments, regardless of wind, rain, lightning, corrosive acid rain, miasma, etc.

There is a huge animal head carved on the front and back ends of the airship.

The animal head on the bow looked like an eagle, except that the beak was longer and thinner, and it shone with a cold light in the sun.

The eagle's eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if they would cut through the sky and tear the prey in front of them into pieces at any moment.

The animal head at the stern looks like a rhinoceros, with a shiny black, conical horn, and the top of the horn piercing the sky, as if it was about to poke a hole in it.

Li Yu's spiritual consciousness probed into the cabin again. The cabin was divided into three layers.

The top floor is where the airship staff live, including waiters, cleaners, cooks, and various technicians.

As for the airship guard team that Yun Yi mentioned before, they were not here. They lived on the first floor of the airship deck.

The middle layer is used to store goods, with countless goods neatly stacked here.

At the bottom of the airship, Li Yu did not dare to use his spiritual sense to explore easily.

He discovered that under the floor of the second floor of the cabin, there was a layer of special metal material that could resist the magician's mental detection.

Although he could force his way in with his strong spiritual awareness, if he triggered any alarm, it would probably cause some unnecessary trouble.

"The bottom layer should be the power core of the entire airship and the control hub of the airship's main and secondary magic cannons." Li Yu speculated secretly.

After a moment, the young man brought them into a spacious reception room on the first floor.

Quite a few people had gathered in the reception room, most of them were fighters.

As soon as Li Yu and his three companions came in, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Junior magician."

"The Ruby Chamber of Commerce actually hired two junior magicians. They really spent a lot of money this time."

"Although this mission is a long journey, the reward is generous enough. I am at the peak of martial arts and have 5 gold coins." A middle-aged man looked proud.

But he was immediately mocked by others: "Haha, peak warrior? Practice hard, I'm in the initial stage of warrior, and I have almost 15 gold coins."

The middle-aged man's face immediately fell when he heard this, and he muttered to himself: "15? There's such a big difference? No, I have to practice hard."

Someone beside him immediately comforted him, "Brother, you should be content. I am in the middle stage of warrior, and I only have 2."

Everyone was talking about it and guessing how much compensation Li Yu and his team would get for this escort mission.

There were even a few gamblers who started betting secretly.

Li Yu and his three companions ignored the curious looks of the crowd and randomly found an empty seat in the hall and sat down.
