Chapter 172 Goblin Airship (Editor-in-Chief Plus)
Zong Shen stroked his chin.
He was thinking about whether to test the flight, after all, he had never been on a goblin airship.
Looking at the style of the airbag, this is a soft airship.
The cabin of the airship is a gondola, with two sets of cutter wheels on each side.
Thinking of this, he stared at the past, ready to check the specific parameters and attributes of the airship.
【Goblin Airship (Purple)】
[Quality: Rare]
[Sturdy value: 3500]
[Armor value: 40]
[Maximum load: 15 tons]
[Maximum number of people to carry: 55]
[Cruising speed: 66 km/h]
[Maximum speed: 86 km/h]
[Maximum flight altitude: 4000 meters]

[Durability: 873]
[Skill: Constant speed cruise lv10 (the airship will maintain a constant speed for cruising, reducing the mana consumption by 15%)
Sonic expulsion lv10 (the airship can emit bird-repelling sound waves to expel the birds swimming near the airship)
High-speed knife wheel lv10 (activate the knife wheel on both sides of the cabin, causing 300 slicing damage to surrounding enemies, and increasing the mana consumption by 4 points per second)
Passive Skill: Energy Saving (mana consumption reduced by 30%)]
(The goblin airship is an efficient flying vehicle, it can ignore the terrain and avoid most airborne hazards, but there are still many raptors and flying monsters that can threaten the airship)
Zong Shen took a turn along the goblin airship. There were a pair of retractable sail wings on both sides of the airbag made of the leather of the ground beast, and there were also slightly smaller deflector sails at the tail and top.
This thing needs 5 mana points per second when it starts up. Even if the consumption of passive energy saving is reduced, it still needs 3.5 points per second. A primary mana crystal can only drive it for less than half a minute.
Zong Shen just got a lot of magic energy crystals today, and maintaining the consumption of these magic energy equipment is not a problem.
As the saying goes, he has money in his pocket, and he doesn't panic, so he decided to try how this goblin airship flies. He thought of this, took out the communication crystal, and asked Colby to bring the pilots of the two goblin tearers.
Today, they were not sent to cut wood, but as patrol troops to kill those wandering crypt monsters around, and now the patrol scope has been expanded to the periphery of the city wall.
Cooperating with the arrow towers in the territory, the periphery is divided into two patrol teams. The highly mobile wolf cavalry is the mobile team, and the other infantry is used as a supplementary defense, wandering around the periphery of the territory like a circle.
After Colby's notification, they quickly drove back to the outside of the courtyard with the Ripper Magic Mecha.
A few hundred meters away, Zong Shen heard the exclamations of two goblin drivers.
"My God! Lord Lord!"
"This turned out to be a goblin airship!"
"You wouldn't have robbed the airship base of the Hot Sand Group!"
The two goblin pilots shouted, and quickly came to Zong Shen, got off the mecha and saluted respectfully.
Then he ran around the goblin airship and looked around.
"This is the mark of Ratchet City, and it really is the airship of the Hot Sand Group!"
The two goblins stared at the emblem on the cabin and said excitedly.
The two main forces of the goblins are the Hot Sand Group and the Rusty Water Chaebol.
It is controlled by different goblin princes and belongs to the group structure. Each of them has several strongholds, which are controlled by different goblin rich owners and nobles.
Ratchet City belongs to the Hot Sand Group, and the city owner is Gazlowe, who used to be the chief engineer of all projects in Durotar.
Generally speaking, the Hotsand Group is a relatively neutral goblin faction.
The rusty water chaebols are more friendly to the orc forces, and have little interaction with the human race. These are forces that have been handed down from ancient times.
However, the power of both goblins and orcs has shrunk too much now compared to ten thousand years ago. Fortunately, this continent is very vast and there is no shortage of land.
However, the fertile lands in several parts of the continent are now almost occupied by several aboriginal human kingdoms.
At this time, the two goblins jumped up and down, and were excitedly studying the structure of the airship. They were very excited to see the magical energy equipment in their own clan here.
"Can you drive this thing?"
Zong Shen walked over and asked the two excited goblins.
"Um…"
"Dear sir, let's take a look in the cockpit, I think there should be no problem."
"During the past Dimensional War, all magic mecha pilots were required to have at least an intermediate driving certification."
The two goblins patted their chests and answered confidently.
After getting Zong Shen's permission, they opened the cockpit, and Zong Shen also followed behind them and bowed into the cabin door.
This airship is completely made according to the body of the goblin, the height of the hatch is only one meter six, and it needs to bend slightly to enter.
Fortunately, the height of the cabin is not short. In order to ensure the efficiency of loading, the height of the cabin has reached 3 meters.
After entering the cabin, the frontmost position is a cockpit, which looks similar to the cockpit of a cruise ship.
There are glass portholes on both sides, and there are large half-width portholes in the cockpit, and even some observation spots are installed below the deck.
The middle of the cockpit also houses the instrument panel and rudder, as well as power pushrods for acceleration, night lights and landing switches.
Zong Shen took out ten magic crystals and gave them to them, then stood behind and watched how they operated.
"Well…"
"Pierce, come and take a look, the cockpit of this airship seems to be a little different from our airship back then."
"Idiot, the driver's manual says that the goblins will always set the start switch in the most conspicuous position!"
"We should first..."
...
These two goblins are obviously half a bucket of water, but Hao Lai also has some experience.
Near the steering wheel is the injection port of the magic crystal. After putting the magic crystal, pull the long lever on the side to activate the magic core.
"Om..."
The built-in turbofan impeller is activated and begins to compress the air to inflate the airbags.
The outer airbag covering the ground began to expand visibly.
After a few minutes, the airbag was twice the size of the cabin, but the inflation was still not complete.
"Sir, magic energy is not enough..."
A goblin turned to report.
Zong Shen grabbed another handful of magic energy crystals and gave them to him.
In the end, it took about ten minutes for the airbag to inflate to five times the size of the cabin.
It is said that this has not yet reached the inflation limit of the airbag.
Depending on the load capacity, the airbags are inflated differently.
"Sir, hold on to the pole around you, we're about to take off."
"Here are the pilots Pierce and Carlos!"
"There may be some bumps on takeoff!"
While talking, the two goblins pushed away the pushrod of the turbofan turbine.
"boom!"
The air bag above his head began to light up, and it was a wind spirit gem in the air bag that was working.
The telescopic sail wings on both sides of the airbag slowly unfolded in half, the boat swayed violently, and began to lift off slowly!
