Lord Helanza

As the war on the Maca plane comes to an end, the busy scene on the Helanza Airport Terminal has gradually returned to its original state.

Without the piles of war supplies, the towers of the airport terminal all around became extremely empty, and there was no coolie waiting to carry the bags outside the airport terminal.

A group of nobles, surrounded by rebels and maids, boarded the platform of the high tower of the airport terminal. A magical airship with "Flying Fish" written on both sides of the ship’s gunwale was quietly moored on the pier. A lifelike flying fish head is painted on the outside of the bow, which looks like a giant sea fish floating in midair.

Surdak followed the crowd, and boarded the airship along the rails between the ship and the dock.

Several aristocratic ladies with folding fans in their hands gathered together. They were wearing the most popular imperial summer dresses, faintly discernible under the light fabrics, lithe and graceful bodies, and clusters of flowers on their heads. The big hat, except for some precious beads and feathers, looked like a grand fruit basket. Surdak didn't understand how their slender, white necks supported such a hat.

These aristocratic ladies walked at the forefront of the line. They kept talking on chirp chirp twitter twitter along the way, as if they were full of expectations for this journey, and a group of maids followed them.

Several young aristocrats with simple salutes in their hands, followed behind these women. The servants around them were all armor-piercing Knights, each with complete equipment, and their faces appeared. Out of solemn killing aura, although they are more sophisticated than the equipment of the guard camp Knight, he doesn't think these armor-piercing Knights have much combat experience.

Two noble ladies walked in the middle of the line with two attendants and two personal attendants. They looked taciturn, with a black net veil on their faces, and their hands with white hollow patterns. Gloves, it's good to see how well your body is maintained.

At the end of the team followed a few silent nobles. They boarded the ship with their horses and Knight long spear, looking like they were about to go to the battlefield.

In addition to these nobles, there is also an old noble, accompanied by an old steward, quietly boarding the magic airship.

Perhaps there is a group of noble Knights who are about to embark on a journey. Surdak is inconspicuous in the crowd wearing a magic pattern.

A group of crew members stand on the left and right sides of the magic airship deck. Under the leadership of the airship captain, they sincerely welcome the nobles who boarded the ship, and a dedicated crew member is responsible for arranging the boarding nobles on the airship. In the room above, they carefully explained the benefits that can be enjoyed by taking the airship as they walked, and of course there were some services specially prepared for the nobles.

Surdak only learned that the airship can also prepare breakfast and afternoon tea separately. You can also order three meals a day. The type of dishes is also myriad. Every day there will be a chef on the airship. The recommended dishes listed above, of course, are not something you can eat with money. In addition to being able to afford the money, you also need to have aristocratic status.

In fact, all the cereals and hard baked oatmeal on the airship that are as unpalatable as marching rations are for civilians. Even if ordinary merchants have money, at best they are white bread with red sausage ale. , The choice of dishes is far less rich than the nobles.

The cabin on the airship deck provides hot water for bathing every morning and between 8 and 9 in the evening.

Of course, to enjoy this service, you need a small bathroom in the room.

However, not all rooms have a bathroom. The ticket price of a room with a bathroom is more than twice as expensive as that without a bathroom. Surdak happened to buy a room with a small bathroom. , On the first floor of the deck, at the innermost part of the corridor on the right side of the ship, he felt that those crew members must have treated him as a group of noble Knights who were about to set out to get such special treatment.

In fact, he just participated in the Maca Plane War, and was conferred as a third-class Baron from the Great Emperor Charles of the Grimm Empire as Helanza. The Grimm Empire can count it with one hand.

Opening the wooden door of the room, what you see is a clean and tidy wooden bed with a thick mattress and snow-white sheets. The room is about less than six square meters, opposite to the wooden door. There is a round glass window open on the wall, and there is a folding table on the wall next to the bed, which is usually folded together and can only be put down when needed.

Apart from this, on the left hand side of the entrance, there is a washing room with a size of more than one square meter. In addition to a bathtub, this washing room only has a washing basin at the door.

Surdak untied the heavy upper body armor and hung it on the wooden rack in the room. He took out five copper plates from his arms and plugged it into the crew member at the door. The crew member thanked him and took it. To Surdak reminded: "Thank you for your generosity, Lord Baron, the head chef who is flying with us to Pena City this time is Chef Antonio. His best dishes are smoked Moraki fish and stewed white rock rhino spine. Hope you I have the opportunity to taste Chef Antonio’s specialty dishes."

Surdak nodded, said I knew it.

But he didn’t plan to eat these demonic beast meat delicacies on the airship. In the Helanza city high level restaurant, the prices of these dishes need to be settled with Gold Coin. It is preliminarily estimated that it must not be cheap. Surdak is not the kind of wealthy aristocrat who is not distressed by squandering a dozen Gold Coins. The crew recommended to him the high level dishes of demonic beast meat, mostly because he was wearing it. A top-notch magic pattern structure.

He didn’t even go to the restaurant for dinner.

Mrs. Cohen prepared a food box for Surdak this time, and Surdak put it in the magic pocket, the food box The food prepared inside is quite rich. In addition to a few sandwiches with cream and luncheon meat, there is also a grilled sausage and a few apples. These foods are enough for Surdak to eat two meals.

When the crew member left, Surdak closed the hatch and sat alone on the wooden bed.

Look at Helanza city after nightfall through the clean glass windows. The colorful lights on the streets give the city a pre-festival atmosphere, especially the castle at the highest point of the city. It is brightly lit.

After the civilians got on the ship, the crew took all the ropes hung on the pier of the airport to the deck.

Sixteen magic devices issued a rumbling sound, and the magic airship broke away from the control of the airport terminal and slowly rose into the night sky.

The two crew members continuously adjusted the direction of the bow of the airship and tested the rising height. They needed to accurately determine the high wind belt. Only when they entered the strong wind belt, the airship could set sail for long distances.

The cabins where civilians live are all under the deck. Of course, even for civilians, those who can afford to ride a magic airship are the middle class with small property.

A group of civilians put their luggage in the cabin and ran to the deck to admire the gorgeous night view of Helanza under the high altitude. They chatted on the deck chirp chirp twitter twitter endlessly.

Twice in the experience of riding the magic airship, Surdak has no such novelty as before. He almost stayed in the cabin for the first two days to feel the dark stars in his body, because he carried enough food, he didn’t need it. I went to the airship restaurant to have a meal, but unfortunately I still couldn't find the way to the cultivation method, and there was almost no gain.

After being locked in the cabin for two days, Surdak finally got out of the cabin, and he walked casually on the deck a few laps.

The airship enters the channel, the three-masted sails are full, and the spinnaker and spinnaker on the bow are also raised high. The ship is like a flying fish in the wind. Fast forward, this airship is just a medium and thin magic airship, but the hull is very long.

Surdak held the right side of the ship with both hands, and looked down the airship in the gap between the two floating devices.

I stayed in the cabin for two days, and now I am standing on the deck and blowing the cold wind, but I feel particularly comfortable.

Two ladies in black cloaks are standing on the bow looking up at the jib leading the way. In front of the ladies, several crew members are continuously playing with the noose that does not need to be adjusted. A young nobleman stood not far from the bow of the ship, talking in low voices and laughing loudly, seemingly trying to attract the attention of the two ladies.

Surdak gave up the idea of ​​going over to see the red copper hitting the corners of the bow. He circled the main mast and saw that there was an open viewing platform on the top of the ship. There were not a few people, they went up to the top floor along the zigzag stairs of the ship building, and the two crew members stood by the door of the ship building, persuaded the two civilians to retreat, and saw Surdak quickly salute and let them go.

Looking at the two civilians leaving with shameless faces, Surdak stepped onto the observation deck on the top of the ship building.

The viewing platform on the top floor is not large, and only when I walked up did I find that there are a lot of people on the viewing platform.

On the deck, because of the perspective, I didn’t see the crowd on the viewing platform. When I boarded the ship, I saw several aristocratic ladies who changed into cloaks, squeezed on the top left of the ship building. In the back corner, I was admiring the ever-changing sea of ​​clouds under my feet.

At the opposite corner of them, an old nobleman stood against the wind accompanied by steward. The cold wind blew on his wrinkled face. He stood quietly by the railing and looked at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance.

Surdak walked up to the ship.

I saw Steward whispering a few words in the ear of the old nobleman, and then with the help of old steward, he passed by Surdak and walked slowly down the stairs of the ship.

At this moment, a strong whirlwind suddenly blown from the side of the ship, and the entire sail swayed violently. Following the hull, it swayed from side to side with the sound of'creak creak'. The huge mast seemed to be always Fall down.

Surdak leaned forward and grabbed the railing next to him.

I heard the captain in the bridge yelling to the crew on the deck: "turbulence, let me lower the sail..."

Then the ship shook violently. Surdak felt his body bounce, and quickly grabbed the railing on the side.

The old nobleman who hadn’t gone far didn’t grab the handrail on the upper floor of the ship. He bumped against the railing and his body moved towards the railing. Steward was caught off guard and caught with both hands. Empty.

Seeing that the old nobleman was about to fall off the top of the ship, he took a step first, leaned out with one hand on the railing, leapt out and grabbed the old nobleman’s belt in his hands, and instantly removed him from the ship. Pulled back outside the building.

At this moment, the old nobleman's face flushed with fright, his body hit the railing, his breathing was a bit rapid, and his lips became a bit purple.

This turbulence came and went quickly, and soon the airship returned to calm, and the deck and roof were in chaos.

Fortunately, this turbulence did not cause serious casualties. If this short-term turbulence lasts for more than a quarter of an hour, it will be called a wind storm. If it is not handled properly, the ship may be destroyed or killed. .

Surdak and Steward helped the old nobleman into the corridor on the third floor of the ship building. The old nobleman was already speechless.

The steward thanked Surdak again and again, and respectfully asked Surdak's name.

Surdak smiled implicitly, and said to Steward and the old nobleman: "Don't thank me, I just did one thing within my power, I believe every youngster will be like me when seeing this situation..."

Seeing that the old nobleman’s breathing gradually calmed down, and his body was fine, he declined Steward’s warm invitation and turned back to his cabin.

Surdak was tired of the cold food that he brought on the airship, and was ready to see the restaurant on the airship, so he ordered a dinner of the day on the recommendation of the crew.

At dinner time, Surdak walked into the 2-Layer restaurant on the ship building. The waiter in the restaurant took Surdak to the seat against the wall. The waiter brought the boiled peas and fried meat steak. Surdak took a bite. I think the chef on the airship is really fine. The steak is fried just right, and the sauce has a unique flavor.

The two noble ladies were also dining in the restaurant. Opposite them were two young nobles. The four seemed to have a good conversation and laughed from time to time.

Surdak wiped the gravy from the bottom of the plate with a piece of white bread, and stuffed it into his mouth with the last piece of bread, and was about to wipe his hands with a napkin to leave, and saw the waiter in the restaurant walking over with a golden cider , And stopped beside him, put a crystal goblet on the table, bowed his head and said respectfully to Surdak: "Count Alexey Itt wants you to have a drink..."

Surdak lifts the head in surprise, just to see the Old Earl sitting in the middle of the restaurant. He should have just arrived, and the waiter in the restaurant was putting plates on the table one after another.

Seeing Surdak moved towards He looked over, and quickly raised the goblet in his hand, shook the golden wine in the cup to pay tribute to Surdak.

In this case, Surdak was inconvenient to refuse, so he asked the waiter in the restaurant to pour him a glass of wine, toast with the Earl Alexis Itt, and drank a glass of slightly sour golden cider. Only then left the restaurant.

It was probably because of a glass of wine. After taking a bath, Surdak lay on the bed. This night, I slept very sweetly.

In the early morning of 2nd day, practice basic sword technique on the bow deck of Surdak Station.

Not long after, those nobles who seemed to be ready to expedition also ran to the deck to exercise. They stood on the deck with wooden swords in hand to practice in pairs, and the heavy wooden swords in their hands drove out of the flowers from time to time. Pretty sword style, the defender doesn't need a shield to block, but instead has to hold a wooden sword and dismantle those sword moves very fancyly, as if you can't dismantle it even if you lose.

They practiced against each other on the deck for a while, and saw that Surdak was still squatting on the bow of the ship, repeating the basic movements, showing some sneers on his face, but no one took the initiative. Come to provoke.

Until Surdak left with the blood-red crescent moon, the nobles lightly said and chuckled twice.

When Surdak returned to the cabin, he saw steward waiting at the door, saw Surdak returning, and took the initiative to send an invitation to Surdak...
