Chapter 134: Smart people doesn’t fight with their fist, but with their minds (1/2)

The trip towards Flying Mountain with the Eagle Flyingboats would take around 4 to 5 hours.

The reason for the long travel is actually not because the Eagle Flyingboats were slow. In fact, it is already considered really fast.

To be honest, Eagle Flyingboat is actually not just any ordinary Flying boat. According to the list of Flyingboats listed by the Aurora Empire, one of the powerful Human Empires, the Eagle Flyingboat is actually listed as the top 50 fastest flying boats invented by the Human race amongst the 100 invented flying boats.

It is also not because the distance between Green Weed city and Flying Mountain is really far that's why it would take 4 to 5 hours of travel. Actually, the distance is just a few hundreds of kilometers, something that an Eagle Flyingboat can travel in a span of 2 hours.

The real reason is actually because the Captains of the Eagle Flyingboats needed to follow a specific route.

They are going to travel within the Shark Cemetery territory. Even the sky is not safe from the Magical Beast Sharks, since powerful Magical Beast Sharks can fly around the sky.

In fact, it's really dangerous, since they will only be faced with powerful Magical Beast Sharks! Though traveling in the ocean is still much more dangerous, since powerful, weak, or other Magical Beast Sharks with an unknown strength could attack them any moment. Unlike the skies where they can already expect what kind of Magical Beast Sharks will attack them since they can see them clearly.

Nevertheless, the sky or the ocean, it is still dangerous!

That's why the Captains of the Eagle Flyingboats needs to travel in a specific route in order for them to avoid meeting powerful Magical Beast Sharks.

Each space of the sky above the Shark Cemetery is owned by a different kind of Magical Beast Sharks. Hence naturally each space would have different kinds of dangers.

Throughout the years of traveling from Green Weed city to Floating Mountain, the Captains that work under the Green Eagle Flyingboat Yard already familiarized themselves around the sky above the Shark Cemetery.

Although they can't do anything to avoid meeting the Magical Beast Sharks flying above the Shark Cemetery, they can at least minimize the danger that they will face. And the cost of minimizing that danger is time.

Unlike the land, the sky allows all sorts of movements.

Traveling on the land, a person can only travel 12 different directions just like the clock. They can still go up though if there is a mountain or go down if there is a hole leading underground. However, if there is none of those two, then the likely direction would only be 12 different directions.

On the other hand, the sky allows a person to travel all sorts of direction simply because the sky is an open space. Go up and down, 12 different directions basing the clock, and many more kinds of movements are possible.

It is through this movement why the Captains can minimize the danger. If a specific space is the territory of the Magical Beast Fierce Tiger Shark, a 7 Star Magical Beast, then the Captains would just go really up above the sky, so that they can easily avoid them.

However, traveling really high up in the sky is also not safe. The sky is an open space, and any part of it would naturally have other kinds of Magical Beast Sharks living around. Hence, the moment the Captains successfully avoid that danger by choosing to face a smaller danger, they would go down once again if they will face a territory of another powerful Magical Beast Shark.

That is the reason why the Eagle Flyingboats would take 4 to 5 hours to travel from Green Weed city to Floating Mountain despite the distance just being a few hundreds of kilometers.

.....

At this moment, Leo was looking at the sky.

From time to time, he could spot all sorts of Magical Beast Sharks, like a Sapphire Hammerhead Shark, Cloud Shark, Tentacle Shark, and many more different kinds along the way.

Fortunately, those kinds of Magical Beast Sharks doesn't dare to attack the group of Eagle Flying boats. Obviously, they could feel a lot of powerful presence within the Eagle Flying boats. Hence, as a Magical Beast, they don't dare attempt an attack as stupid as that.

To be honest, !side from the 18 teachers of Silver Mage Academy, the Eagle Flyingship's Captains, and First Mate were all-powerful individuals, specifically, the lowest was even a 3 Star Mage and the highest, the Captains of this Eagle Flyingboat, is a 5 Star Mage.

Although, they can't be compared to the Silver Mage Academy teachers, where the lowest was a 4 Star Mage and the highest is a 6 Star Mage, a powerful group such as the Captains and First Mate was still something not to be underestimated about.

”This is getting boring...” Leo can't help but murmur. Although it's an astonishing sight to look at all sorts of different Magical Beast Sharks, but due to not having any sort of fight at all, he can't help but felt bored right now.

Moreover, he also wanted to know just how powerful were the teachers of the Silver Mage Academy. Just like the goal of the teachers prior to embarking the Eagle Flyingboats, Leo also wanted to know about the teachers.

His Master Olivia had told him not to underestimate the Mages, but how can he know what to be wary about if he doesn't even know their capability, right? Especially since his Master Olivia had only told him a few things about the Mages. She obviously did it on purpose in order to let him find out about those capabilities in his own ways.

Suddenly though, the moment Leo turned around, Alfred was suddenly thrown towards his direction.

Leo quickly helped Alfred to stand back up, as he looked towards those students who had pushed the latter to him.

”He said you are the most powerful of Class 1S-, is that right?��� A student that Leo was familiar with said.

”You are Zhu Long, right?” Leo asked as he wanted to confirm if he said his name correctly or not...

He had seen this person in one of those Class 1E- papers that teacher Marvin had told them to pay attention to, specifically the lowest in the rank, but he just can't remember whether it was really Zhu Long, Zhu Rong, Zhou Xiyi, or something similar to that. It's a Chinese name, so it's not easy for him to remember, especially since he only knew one other Chinese person, Butler Xiao.
