Volume 4 Chapter 37 - Island with strategic value (1/2)

Everyone looked up and found a black spot moving through the sky. It created a large shadow on the ground which covered up the wharf.

Great Magician Telucci looked at it and asked in surprise, “What is this thing?”

Xu Yi said with a faint smile, “You’ll know once you take a look.”

After saying this, Xu Yi invited Great Magician Telucci. He used the Wind Control Spell on himself and flew towards the cliff.

Great Magician Telucci had a curious look, but he also flew over to take a look.

The weakest among them was Still who was a Sixth Grade Magician, so naturally she could fly herself. They all flew up and after a while, the strange “black cloud” in the sky flew to the cliff, landing at the open area outside Xu Yi’s manor.

Still who was the slowest had just landed when the “black cloud” in the sky also landed.

When it landed, everyone looked over and found that this “black cloud” was a round ship that was thirty meters long and ten meters wide.

“This thing…..is it a Magic Airship?”

Great Magician Telucci curiously went around the Magic Airship as his face was covered in praise.

“Camilla told me before that your company was currently developing a Magic Airship that people could ride, but when he mentioned it, he said that it was only several meters wide and could only fit one person. But this ship now…..I think it can take at least ten to twenty people?”

“The limit for people is eighteen right now, it isn’t at twenty yet.” Xu Yi explained with a faint smile.

“That is quite incredible still.” Great Magician Telucci couldn’t help saying in surprise, “Eighteen people, if everyone is at an average of fifty pounds, that added up is close to a ton. Being able to bring a ton of things into the sky and being able to fly this quickly, this is simply astounding!”

Xu Yi laughed, thinking that an airship with a weight of less than a ton was enough to shock Great Magician Telucci like this. If he could see the giant cargo liners on earth, wouldn’t he faint from fright?

The Magic Airship suddenly gave a soft sound and the door that could fit two people opened, as Akali charged out from inside.

“Sir chairman, we’re back!” Akali waved her hand at Xu Yi. Then she looked at the others and when she saw Still, she charged over to take Still’s hand, shaking it as she excitedly called out.

“Still, you really should come with us on the Magic Airship, it really is exciting! I never thought that I would be able to look down from so high up and it’s so steady, it’s simply incredible!”

Still looked at her, “You can use flight magic to fly in the sky, why are you this excited?”

“This isn’t the same.” Akali shook her head, “Although you can also fly in the sky with flight magic, at the highest you can only go…..no more than ten floors. It’s around twenty meters, no more than thirty meters. But sitting in the Magic Airship, you can fly up several hundred meters! Let me tell you, looking down from several dozen meters and looking down from several hundred meters, this is completely two different things!”

“Of course, don’t you know? When you look down from several hundred meters, the people on the ground are as small as ants, you can’t see them clearly at all! When I was looking down, I felt like I had suddenly become giant!”

Even if Akali’s words were exaggerated, this was Still’s first time seeing her this excited because of something, so she became a bit interested.

“Alright, when the Magic Airship sets off next time, I’ll give it a try. Xu Yi, is that alright?”

Xu Yi gave a shrug, “You shouldn’t ask me this, you should ask Evita. After all, she is the one in charge of the Magic Airship project, so she has the most right to speak since she is the expert. If she agrees to let you go, I don’t have any objections.”

Evita had just walked out of the Magic Airship and seeing Xu Yi throw the problem to her, she nodded with a faint smile, “No problem. After all these tests, I’m certain that the Magic Airship is secure to a certain degree. Then again, Still is a magician, so if something happens, nothing will happen to her.”

Still looked at Xu Yi and Xu Yi nodded, “Alright, since Evita has agreed, then I won’t object.”

Ignoring Still and Akali who discussed the feeling of riding this Magic Airship, Xu Yi came to Evita’s side and asked in a low voice, “Is it done?”

Evita nodded and reached into her chest, taking out a thick leather scroll and giving it to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi didn’t open it when he took it, he just called Great Magician Telucci who had been looking over the Magic Airship and gathered the group to head into the manor.

Everyone came into the most inner room of the manor and Xu Yi opened the leather scroll Evita gave him, spreading it on the table in the room.

This leather scroll wasn’t that small when it was rolled up, but when it was opened, it was over two meters long and one meter wide.
