Chapter 357 Both Parties Are Hiding Something From Each Other
Without answering Tina's words, Karl raised his right foot and kicked the iron ant directly.
"Go down, you!"
A weak current flows through the iron ant, and the electromagnetic levitation magic element is activated.
Before Tina could come back to her senses, the iron ants had already carried her down and flew down.
"Ah——! Master, I hate you!"
Screaming, Tina left the spacecraft.
On the floating island, after a short mobilization, a militia composed of mage apprentices and various professions was already preparing to defend their homeland.
When they saw a strange man flying down from the spaceship, standing on an iron plate and wearing bright red metal armor, some of them had even secretly prepared spells to intercept this unknown existence before it arrived.
They thought their actions were hidden, but from Tina's condescending perspective, it couldn't be more obvious.
For the sake of her own life, even though she had just left her hometown not long ago, Tina still bravely shouted:
"Folks, don't do anything~ It's me!"
With one hand, she moved the artificial life servant on her belt, and Tina's power armor helmet immediately turned into moon spirit fluid and returned to her belt, revealing her true appearance.
On the floating island below, several people who were familiar with Tina heard the voice and recognized the person as the child they had watched grow up.
"Village chief, it's Tina. Is there any misunderstanding?"
Glancing at the village woman who spoke for Tina, the village chief sighed and said with a sad tone:
"Whether or not there is a misunderstanding is not up to you and me. It's not like there have never been incidents in our history where white-eyed wolves from outlying islands came back with air pirates to rob homes. Please be careful!"
After speaking, he raised his head and shouted to Tina, who was about to reach the ground:
"It turns out it was you, girl. Why did you come back not long after you left? Did you lure that big guy in the sky here?"
After hearing the village chief's words, Tina thought the village chief and the others recognized her, so she lowered her guard and said quickly:
"Yes, I brought them here. Don't worry, everyone. That spaceship is my master's car. They just want to borrow the teleportation circle in the village."
While talking, Tina had already reached the ground.
The exquisitely made and gorgeous power armor made several young men in the crowd extremely jealous, and the old village chief also lowered his guard a little after listening to what Tina said.
‘It seems that these people are not coming for the village. Otherwise, as long as they drive that thing and hit it, most of the floating island may be shattered. As for the teleportation circle that this girl said? You can build such a thing, but you still want to borrow the teleportation circle from us? ’
Reluctantly suppressing the doubts in his heart, the village chief began to ask tentatively: "Where is your master from? What are you here for?"
Tina, who had nothing to do with the city, immediately replied: "My master is an artificer on the main plane. He came to our air element plane not long ago because he was involved in an accident. That spaceship was made by him using a huge cloud iron Made from a mine, it’s huge inside!
By the way, he said he seemed to be a sixth grader in Akanix..."
When he heard the word "Akanix", the old village chief's eyebrows suddenly rose.
With his body trembling, the old village chief asked again: "Where do you think he comes from?"
Startled by the old village chief's excited expression, Tina asked cautiously: "Akanix? Is there any problem?"
He slightly raised the staff in his hand, and just when Tina thought the old village chief was about to cast a spell, he knocked the staff hard on the ground.
"No problem! No problem! The alarm has been lifted! Let your master bring his companions down."
After saying this twice in an excited tone, the village chief turned around, cleared the alarm to everyone behind him, and then looked eagerly at the spaceship hovering in mid-air.
At the same time, Karl, who learned the news through his secret eyes, flew down with everyone on the shuttle.
"Hello, village chief, I'm sorry to bother you."
As soon as he stepped off the shuttle, Karl politely said hello to the village chief.
The old village chief looked at him excitedly, as if he were seeing a distant relative he had not seen for a long time.
"Are you a student of Arkanix?"
Without asking other questions, he asked about this matter first.
Karl was stunned for a moment, and then pulled Nia out.
"Both of us are. I'm from the Tower of Strange Mechanics, and she's from the Tower of Change."
Hearing the word "Tower of Strange Weapons", the old village chief showed an obviously doubtful expression.
Seeing this, Karl roughly guessed something, so he explained: "It was the former Tower of Erudite. Because the seniors' research on spells caused serious losses, the magician in the school became the new owner of this Mage Tower. "
Hearing this, the village chief showed an expression of sudden realization.
Rubbing his hands, he said with some embarrassment: "My great-great-grandfather is a graduate of the Arcanic School of Conjuration. Back then, he and his companions came to the air elemental plane to practice cultivation, but later they ended up here. I have children.
The descendants are incompetent, and no powerful mage has emerged in these years. They just relied on the blood of their ancestors to become warlocks, and they cannot even return to the main plane.
Today I can actually see the juniors from the same school as my ancestors again, it’s really… really…”
At this point, the village chief was so excited that he almost shed tears.
"Don't get excited, old man. I have a record of the public teleportation array numbers of the Khorvale continent. If you want to go back, you can go back with us later to take a look."
"No, no, no, not yet. You have come from afar and accepted Tina as your apprentice. Let's go! The village is celebrating the New Year. Let's have some fun together?"
The old and strong village chief pulled Carl without hesitation and led his people to the village.
But at the same time, he and Carl had similar thoughts in their hearts: 'This person must be hiding something, old (little) fox! '
On the surface, they walked towards the village in harmony, but Carl and the village chief were secretly on guard.
What Carl thought was: Tina's giant notebook was obviously connected to the Eternal Furnace. If extended, it means that the original ancestor of this village might have come to the air element plane for the Eternal Furnace.
The village chief thought: Although Carl and others do look like students of Akanix and have some ties with the village, the news about the giant treasure hidden in the village cannot be exposed, and the fact that the village is located near the giant treasure cannot be exposed, so it is best not to expose the code of the village's teleportation array.
In this way, with a little bit of precaution, Carl and others followed the village chief into the village.
However, what they didn't know was that in the air, two days away from the floating island, more than a dozen airships were heading towards this side.
The leader of this group of people was a strange mechanic who had half of his body transformed into a machine, and in his hand, he was holding a map written in giant runes and a compass specially used to identify directions in the air element plane and determine the location of the floating island.
