After hurrying along, Feng Yuchen's group finally arrived at the small town where the mission had been entrusted to them, Ayroth Town. This place was famous for being able to manufacture magic battleships that could fly in the sky. It was a very famous area, but ever since ten years ago, Ayroth Town had not been in contact with the outside world. For some reason, flying magic battleships were no longer manufactured here.
The ten-year mission that Feng Yuchen's group had received was called [Sky Castle's Shadow].
It had not been completed for ten years, and it was a very dangerous mission. If an ordinary High Mage came here, they wouldn't be able to survive even if they had a few lives.
After explaining the situation to the guards, Feng Yuchen's group was brought to the town's lord's mansion.
The lord of this town was a seventeen-year-old girl with a pink veil. Her name was Kliya Panklin. She had inherited her father's position and was temporarily managing Ayroth Town.
"Hello, we have accepted the mission of [Sky Castle's Shadow]. Can you tell us the specifics of the mission?" Feng Yuchen handed the mission slip to the female lord in front of him.
"You are a member of Fairy Tail and Liberty Wings?
That's great! I've heard rumors about you guys. I hope you can complete this mission, or else the entire Ayroth Town will have to migrate. Ten years … For ten years, all the residents of the town have been looking forward to building magic battleships again … "
Kliya immediately clenched Feng Yuchen's hands, looking very excited. She had clearly been troubled by this matter for a long time.
"Hmm … Sir Overlord, you should tell us the specifics of the mission …" Black-Snow Girl snorted. 'Really, is this Overlord trying to seduce my man?'
"Oh … Sorry, I was too excited …"
Kliya let go of Feng Yuchen awkwardly and took two steps back. Then, she took a scroll from the wall and unfurled it on the table. She said seriously, "This is where the town is located. The place where we build the warships is in the huge floating city [Sky Castle] above the town. But now, we can no longer enter Sky Castle.
Ten years ago, Father and the others, who were building the battleship, suddenly heard a loud rumble. When they walked out of the workshop, they discovered that a huge shadow had appeared in the sky above the Sky Castle. It was as big as an island, and as if it had sensed the mana fluctuations of the Sky Castle, the huge shadow immediately launched an attack, and eggs fell from the huge shadow …
When they landed in Sky City, poisonous snakes crawled out of these eggs. At that time, my father and the residents of the town were all … "
At this point, Kliya paused, as if recalling something sad. She then wiped away her tears and continued, "Afterwards, we also sent people to Sky City, but only one person came back alive. He told us about the huge shadow and then issued a mission to request the assistance of powerful High Mages, but until now …"
Feng Yuchen, Eliza, and Black-Snow Girl nodded at each other. It looked like a huge beast. Since the eggs were snakes, it should be a snake-type magic lifeform. But in their memories, there had never been such a huge magic lifeform. Even a Demon couldn't have such a huge body. An island-sized creature was no joke. Those High Mages who gave up should have retreated, right?
"Whether it's real or fake, we can see it with one look. Some spells can also enlarge the body …" Eliza said.
"Hmm, seeing is believing. But even if it can change its size, being able to cause that kind of magic isn't weak. Let's set off …" Black-Snow Girl said.
"Then I'll immediately prepare the battleship for Sky City … You three, follow me …"
Kliya happily nodded and walked out of the Overlord's Mansion.
…
After getting on the magic battleship, Feng Yuchen, Eliza, and Black-Snow Girl gradually arrived at the so-called Sky City. It was a rather huge floating city. From the outside, it looked like a city of steel. The entire city was made of metal, and this scale was simply not something that could be created by humans. It was quite shocking. "Okay, I can only send you here.
You'll have to explore the next area on your own. This is the map of Sky City. If you want to leave, just fire the signal flare, and we'll come to pick you up. Be careful. If you can't complete it, I won't blame you for giving up. After all, I don't have any expectations after so many years, and I don't want to see anyone sacrifice themselves because of this … "Kliya said after putting Feng Yuchen and the others down on the magic battleship.
"Hmm, believe in our strength, we'll definitely complete the mission …" Feng Yuchen patted his chest as he spoke.
"Okay, let's go …"
Black-Snow Girl immediately pulled Feng Yuchen towards the interior of Sky City. That Kliya kept throwing flirtatious glances at Feng Yuchen, and she couldn't stand it anymore.
"…"
After entering Sky City, Feng Yuchen and the others were attacked by the pythons. One by one, the venomous snakes attacked Feng Yuchen and the others.
"Try to preserve enough mana. We still have to deal with the big boss later …"
Feng Yuchen said as he condensed a Frost Sword in his hand.
Black-Snow Girl summoned a lightsaber, while Eliza summoned a knight's greatsword.
"Swish …"
In an instant, Feng Yuchen and the other two rushed into the swarm of snakes. As the swords flashed, the huge pythons fell to the ground one after another, their bodies cut in half.
Feng Yuchen used the Continuous Sword Technique he had used in the Sword and Saber God Domain. His body was like the waves of the sea, continuously waving.
Eliza looked at Feng Yuchen in surprise. She didn't expect Feng Yuchen to use such sharp swordsmanship. She hadn't seen him use swordsmanship before. If she fought him, based on swordsmanship alone, Feng Yuchen's swordsmanship would not be inferior to hers.
Black-Snow Girl was not surprised. After all, she had seen Feng Yuchen's battles in the Accelerated World, so she naturally knew the depth of his strength. She was also familiar with his proficiency in swordsmanship.
The three of them were like three swordsmen. As they danced, they attacked and defended, gradually clearing the surrounding pythons …
