As the war in the Maca plane comes to an end, the busy scene at the airport terminal in Helensa City has gradually returned to its original appearance.
Without the mountains of war supplies, the area around the airport terminal tower became particularly empty, and there were no coolies queuing up outside the airport terminal to carry bags.
A group of nobles, surrounded by their attendants and maids, boarded the platform of the high tower of the airport pier. A magic airship with "Flying Fish" written on both sides of the ship was parked quietly on the pier, with lifelike words painted on the outside of the bow.
The flying fish head looks like a giant sea fish floating in mid-air.
Surdak followed the crowd and boarded the airship along the railings between the ship and the dock.
Several aristocratic ladies with folding fans in their hands gathered together. They were wearing the most popular imitation palace summer dresses at the moment. Their exquisite and graceful bodies were looming under the light fabric. They wore big hats covered with flowers on their heads, except for some precious pearls.
Apart from the hat and feathers, it looked like a grand fruit basket. Suldak couldn't figure out how their slender snow-white necks could hold up such a hat.
This group of noble ladies walked at the front of the team. They were chattering non-stop along the way, as if they were full of expectations for this journey. A group of maids followed them.
Several young nobles held simple salutes in one hand and followed the group of women. The servants around them were all armor-piercing knights. Each one was fully equipped. There was a chilling look on their faces. Although they
The equipment was better than that of the knights in the guard camp, but he didn't think that these armor-piercing knights had much combat experience.
Two noble ladies were walking in the middle of the team with two attendants and two personal maids. They seemed taciturn. Their faces were covered with a black mesh veil, and their hands were wearing white gloves with hollow patterns. It seemed that their figures were well maintained.
good.
At the end of the team followed a few silent nobles, who boarded the ship with their war horses and knights' spears, and looked like they were about to go to the battlefield.
In addition to these nobles, there was also an old nobleman who quietly boarded the magic airship accompanied by an old butler.
Perhaps there was a group of noble knights who were about to embark on a journey. Surdak was inconspicuous in the crowd wearing a magic pattern structure.
A group of crew members stood on the left and right sides of the deck of the magic airship. Under the leadership of the captain of the airship, they sincerely welcomed the nobles who boarded the ship. There were also dedicated crew members responsible for arranging the rooms of the nobles who boarded the airship.
Carefully explain the benefits you can enjoy by flying on an airship, and of course there are some services specially prepared for nobles.
Only then did Suldak find out that breakfast and afternoon tea can be prepared separately on the airship. You can also order three meals a day at will. There are also a variety of dishes. There will be a chef on the airship every day who lists them on the menu.
Recommended dishes. Of course, these dishes cannot be eaten only if you have money. In addition to being able to afford the money, you also need to have aristocratic status.
In fact, all the oatmeal and hard baked wheat cakes on the airship, which are as unpalatable as marching rations, are for civilians. Even if ordinary businessmen are rich, they can only eat white bread and red sausage ale at best, and there are far fewer dishes to choose from.
The nobles are so rich.
The cabins on the airship deck provide hot water for bathing every morning and every evening between 8 and 9 pm.
Of course, to enjoy this service, you need a small bathroom in the room.
However, not all rooms have bathrooms. The ticket price for a room with a bathroom is nearly double that of a room without a bathroom. Suldak happened to buy a room with a small bathroom, which is right on the deck.
In the innermost corridor on the right side of the ship on the first floor, he felt that the crew must have regarded him as a group of noble knights who were about to go on an expedition, so they received such special treatment.
In fact, he had just participated in the Maca Plane War, and was therefore canonized as a third-class baron in Hellanza City by Emperor Charles of the Green Empire. A civilian knight who could hold this honor would win every year with one hand in the Green Empire.
I can count them.
Pushing open the wooden door of the room, what comes into view is a clean and tidy wooden bed, covered with a thick mattress and snow-white sheets. The room is probably less than six square meters, and there is a circular opening on the wall opposite the wooden door.
There are shaped glass windows, 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.
In addition, there is a bathroom of more than one square meter on the left side of the entrance. In addition to a bathtub, this bathroom only has a wash basin at the door.
Surdak untied the heavy upper body armor and hung it on a wooden rack in the room. He took out five copper plates from his arms and gave them to the crew member at the door. The crew member thanked him and took them.
Ke reminded: "Thank you for your generosity, Lord Baron. The chef who will fly with us to Bena City this time is Chef Antonio. His best dishes are smoked Moraki fish and stewed white rock rhinoceros spine. I hope you can
If you have a chance, you can try Chef Antonio’s specialties.”
Suldak nodded, indicating that he understood.
However, he was not prepared to eat these delicacies made of Warcraft meat on the airship. In high-end restaurants in Halanza City, the prices of these dishes need to be settled with gold coins. Now that they are brought to the airship, it is estimated that they will not be cheap.
Surdak is not the kind of wealthy aristocrat who casually squanders a dozen gold coins without feeling bad. The crew member recommended the high-end dish of Warcraft meat to him, probably because he was wearing a top-notch magic pattern structure.
Pack.
He wasn't even ready to go to the restaurant for dinner,
Mrs. Cohen prepared a food box for Surdak this time, and Surdak put it in the magic waist bag. The food prepared in the food box was quite rich, except for a few pieces filled with butter and luncheon meat.
In addition to the sandwich, there was a grilled sausage and a few apples, which was enough food for Surdak to eat for two meals.
After the crew member left, Suldak closed the cabin door and sat alone on the wooden bed.
Looking at the city of Hiranza after nightfall through the clean glass windows, the colorful lights on the streets gave the city an atmosphere before a grand festival, especially the castle at the top of the city was brightly lit.
After the civilians boarded the ship, the crew retracted the ropes hanging on the airport pier to the deck.
Sixteen magic devices made a roar, and the magic airship broke away from the control of the airport terminal and slowly rose into the night sky.
The two crew members constantly adjusted the direction of the airship's bow and tested the rising height. They needed to accurately determine the strong wind zone in the sky. Only when it enters the strong wind zone can the airship sail far.
The cabins where civilians live are all below the deck. Of course, even among civilians, those who can afford to ride on the magic airship are the middle class with a small fortune.
A group of civilians put their luggage into the cabin and ran to the deck to enjoy the gorgeous night view of Hilanza City from high altitude. They chatted non-stop on the deck.
After two experiences on the magic airship, Suldak no longer had the same sense of novelty as before. For the first two days, he almost stayed in the cabin to feel the dark star in his body. Because he brought enough food, he did not need to go to the airship restaurant to eat.
, it’s a pity that I still can’t figure out the method of cultivation, and I have gained almost nothing.
After being cooped up in the cabin for two days, Suldak finally walked out of the cabin and walked around the deck a few times.
The airship entered the channel, the three-masted sails were inflated, and the spinnaker and jib at the bow were also raised high. The ship was indeed like a flying fish, moving rapidly in the wind. The airship
It is just a medium-sized and thin magic airship, but the hull is very long.
Surdak held his hands on the right side of the ship, looking down at the gap between the two flotation devices.
After being cooped up in the cabin for two days, standing on the deck and blowing in the cold wind made me feel particularly comfortable.
Two ladies in black cloaks were standing on the bow of the ship, looking up at the guiding jib. Several crew members were constantly fiddling with the nooses that did not need to be adjusted in front of the ladies. Several young nobles were standing there.
Not far from the bow of the ship, they were talking in low voices and laughing loudly, apparently trying to attract the attention of the two ladies.
Surdak gave up the idea of walking over to look at the red copper corner of the ship's bow. He circled around the main mast and saw that there was an open observation deck on the top of the ship. There didn't seem to be many people on it.
Then they climbed up to the top floor along the zigzag staircase of the ship building. Two crew members stood guard at the door of the ship building and persuaded the two civilians to leave. When they saw Suldak, they quickly saluted and let them go.
Watching the two civilians leave with sullen expressions, Suldak stepped onto the observation deck on the top floor of the ship.
The observation deck on the top floor is not very large. When I walked up, I realized that there were quite a lot of people on the observation deck.
Due to the angle of view on the deck, I did not see the crowd on the observation deck. The few noble ladies I saw when boarding the ship had changed their cloaks to keep out the cold and were huddled in the left rear corner of the top floor of the ship building.
Admire the ever-changing sea of clouds beneath your feet.
Opposite them, an old nobleman stood facing the wind, accompanied by his butler. 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 onto the ship's roof.
I saw the butler whispering a few words in the ear of the old nobleman, and then with the support of the old butler, he passed by Suldak and slowly walked down the stairs of the ship building.
At this moment, a strong whirlwind suddenly blew from the side of the ship. The entire sail swayed violently, followed by the hull swaying left and right with a creaking sound, and the huge mast seemed to fall down at any time.
Surdak leaned forward and grabbed the railing next to him.
I heard the captain in the bridge shouting to the crew on the deck: "turbulence, please lower the sail quickly..."
Then the ship's hull suddenly shook violently. Suldak felt his body bounce up and quickly grabbed the railing on the side.
The old nobleman who had not gone far failed to grab the handrail on the ship's upper floor and hit the railing with a bang. His body fell out of the railing. The butler was caught off guard and his hands were thrown away.
Seeing that the old noble was about to fall off the roof of the ship, Suldak took a step forward, put one hand on the railing, leaped out, grabbed the old noble's belt in his hand, and instantly pulled him out of the ship building.
return.
At this moment, the old nobleman's face turned red with fear. His body hit the railing, his breathing became a little rapid, and his lips turned purple.
The turbulence came and went quickly. 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 and people may be killed.
Suldak and the steward helped the old nobleman to the corridor on the third floor of the ship building. The old nobleman was speechless.
The housekeeper thanked Surdak repeatedly and respectfully asked Surdak's name.
Surdak smiled implicitly and said to the housekeeper and the old noble: "No need to thank me, I just did what I could. I believe every young man will be like me when seeing this situation..."
Seeing that the old noble's breathing gradually calmed down and his body was fine, he declined the butler's warm invitation and turned to return to his cabin.
Suldak was tired of eating the cold food he had brought with him on the airship, and was ready to see the restaurant on the airship, so he ordered a dinner for that day on the recommendation of the crew.
When it was dinner time, Surdak walked into the restaurant on the second floor of the ship building. The waiter in the restaurant took Surdak to a seat by the wall. The waiter brought boiled peas and fried steak, and Surdak took a bite.
, I think there is really nothing wrong with the chef on the airship. The steak is fried at just the right temperature, and the sauce is paired with a unique flavor.
Two noble ladies were also dining in the restaurant, and two young nobles sat opposite them. It seemed that the four of them were talking happily, and they let out suppressed laughter from time to time.
Suldak wiped off the gravy on the bottom of the plate with a piece of white bread and stuffed the last piece of bread into his mouth. He was about to wipe his hands with a napkin and leave when he saw the waiter in the restaurant coming over with a bottle of golden cider and saying to him
He stopped beside him, placed a crystal goblet on the table, lowered his head and said respectfully to Suldak: "Count Alexi It would like to treat you to a drink..."
Suldak raised his head in surprise, and happened to see the old count sitting in the middle of the restaurant. He must have just arrived, and the waiters in the restaurant were placing plates on the table one after another.
Seeing Suldak looking towards him, he quickly raised the goblet in his hand and shook the golden wine in the glass to pay tribute to Suldak.
In this situation, Suldak couldn't refuse, so he asked the restaurant waiter to pour him a glass of wine. He toasted with Count Alexi Itter from a distance, drank a glass of slightly sour golden apple cider, and then left the restaurant.
Probably because he drank a glass of wine, after taking a bath, Suldak lay on the bed and slept particularly soundly that night.
Early the next morning, Suldak stood on the bow deck of the ship to practice basic sword skills.
Not long after, those nobles who seemed to be preparing for an expedition also ran to the deck to exercise. They stood on the deck in pairs with wooden swords in their hands. From time to time, the heavy wooden swords in their hands made fancy sword moves to defend one side.
He doesn't use a shield to block, but instead holds a wooden sword and dismantles the sword moves in a very fancy way, as if he loses if he can't dismantle them.
They practiced sparring on the deck for a while, and saw Suldak still squatting half-crouched on the bow of the ship, repeatedly practicing the basic movements, with some sarcastic expressions on his face, but no one took the initiative to provoke him.
It wasn't until Surdak left with the blood-red crescent moon that the nobles chuckled softly.
When Surdak returned to the cabin, he saw the butler waiting at the door. Seeing Surdak returning, he took the initiative to extend an invitation to Surdak...
