Chapter 1237 - Storm (2/2)

Lily nodded in satisfaction when the hot air balloon stabilized. She then looked at the border of the mainland in anticipation.

Lily was quite satisfied with the aircraft she had designed and even happier with the efficiency of the abhumans. Those guys might be a little dim-witted, but they were not slow at all in building the hot air balloons.

She thought that it would take her at least a month before she could leave the desolate place, but the skills of the primitive races had exceeded her expectation. Some of them had great physical strength; some were able to communicate with plants, some could use flames, some could make adhesives that were tougher than steel. With the help of these magical abhumans, she was able to finish the hot air balloons in a relatively short time. So she had decided to made six airships, and then improved her initial design blueprint, and upgraded the previously conceived basic balloon design to make it like an airship.

Armed with these things, she was confident to reach the mainland.

The old demonic ape told her that there was a human kingdom on the continent. So if you wanted to find Mr. Landlord, the human realm was her best bet. Mr. Landlord was a busybody, and where there were humans, there were troubles. So, she had to go to places where there were humans. The husky maiden Lily Liu felt that her thinking was utterly logical.

After reaching the desired altitude, the airship began to accelerate slowly. Lily poked his head to take a look at the wooden propellers on both sides. Some compact wooden cranks connected the propeller blades, which driven by the bear monsters in the lower pods. Those bear monsters, which could continuously pedal the shaft for a day and night without rest, were ideal labors.

Lily wriggled in the seat covered in grass mat and fur to find a comfortable posture. She then stretched her limbs like a lazy bear. While looking at the clouds through the skylight above, she pondered what to eat for the next meal. The ropes and brackets used to connect the two large balloons crisscrossed into a grid in her field of vision, seemingly dividing the sky into many fragmented pieces. And in these pieces, many strange clouds flew past like a revolving lantern.

A cloud broke apart, and a white monster came out from behind the veil.

Lily was fast asleep, but the appearance of the white monster jolted her out of her dream. She blinked, and her ears flickered, realizing that it was a massive human-made aircraft.

In front of the large aircraft, her little airship looked like a toy. It was a huge ship, a beautiful and advanced beautiful spaceship!

Lily quickly bounced up from her cushion and looked up at the magic-powered warship that was gradually coming out of the clouds. Her golden eyes were reflecting the image of a sleek fuselage and a magnificent statue of a goddess. Feeling a little nervous, but she quickly calmed down. The magic-powered warship quickly overtook her ‘toy’ airship, leaving trails of turbulence in the clouds. It made a slight turn and gradually flew toward the airport city, Lunier, on the south of the Ansu Continent.

A sudden violent vibration came from under Lily’s feet.

“What’s happening?” She immediately asked a nearby gnoll. “Is the heat of the two ballons became unequal?”

The gnoll ran out in panic while Lily followed from behind. She was going to check out the condition of the airship.

She saw something else instead.

The sky in the distance had turned dark, and a thick shadow was coming toward her direction. Fog and shadow, as if mud erupted from the abyss, surged and shrilled along the edge of Ansu Continent. Behind, some terrible power was ravaging the floating island. Lily saw the whole islands began to shake violently as huge black smoke emerged from the endless void in the sky below the island. When the black smoke rose, it directly hit the pedestal of the floating island with a distant and terrible roar. The ancient volcano in the center of the island began to spew smoke and ashes before it erupted into a pillar of fire.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the whole island fell into a sea of fire.

The most terrible tide of Chaos in the world of Collow began.
