After a day's rest, morning came again, and the rescue team was preparing to set off for the ruins.
Flint looked at the "hanging basket" made by the sailors with rope nets and loudly expressed his dissatisfaction: "Throw us into this, where is our dignity?"
Wang: "Just be content. The flying ability of the griffin transformed by Xiaobai is higher than that of the normal griffin, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to sit on the rope net."
Xiaobai is a strong man who can carry a group of people when he transforms into a bald eagle. How can a normal bald eagle have this "cargo carrying" ability? But there is a problem that Xiaobai cannot solve, that is, she cannot make the griffon's back wider. , it is simply impossible to squeeze out the entire rescue team.
So the workaround was to let the two guys occupying positions, Manzi and Dwarf, hang in the rope net.
The dwarf began to display his characteristics of a nagging veteran and began to display the national curse of the dwarves.
The king was completely unmoved and reminded him kindly: "By the way, take off your armor later. Your armor will soon catch up with the enemy. When the enemy lands, you can recall your armor." "
Flint: "Caris Newman's dermatitis! If I didn't already know you very well, just wait until I leave the team!"
After saying that, he quickly took off his armor - I don't know if it was deliberately designed to be easy to put on and take off, but this armor felt very fast to take off.
Wang: "Thank you. Okay, Xiaobai, turn into a gryphon! Flint, enter the net!"
At the same time that Xiaobai turned into a gryphon, Flint cursed and entered the net. When the barbarian entered, he comforted him: "If you feel uncomfortable being carried by the net, you can extend your legs through the mesh. This may be able to... "
Flint: "This will wear you down!! My armor is off!"
Manzi: "Oh."
At this time, Xiaobai completed his transformation and looked up to the sky with a roar.
Wang started to cast a spell: "Gigantic Transformation!"
The next moment, Xiaobai's size expanded by one size so that more people could sit on the saddle.
Marika: "Your Highness, please come first. Do you want me to carry you up?"
Elizabeth assessed the height of the gryphon after it grew bigger, gave up her efforts, and said to Marika: "Sorry for your trouble."
"You're welcome." Marika picked up Elizabeth and placed her on the gryphon saddle.
Wang turned to Nini and said, "It's up to you too."
Elizabeth: "Why! You should climb up by yourself. Where is a man's dignity?"
"I am a weak and weak mage," Wang Liang showed his shamelessness, "I have no physical dignity to guard. Come on, Nini, pick me up!"
"Good teacher."
Nini picked up the mage and put him on the saddle, in front of Elizabeth.
Elizabeth pinched the king's waist hard.
Wang was completely indifferent and turned to Nini and said, "How are you two elves going to solve this problem?"
Nini pulled the griffon's "stirrup" with her hand: "This is enough for me."
"Really? We may have to fly for a long time."
Nini: "Don't worry, I can even hang on a tree and close my eyes to relax for eight hours at a time."
Wang: "Are you a bat?"
"The bat hangs upside down, right?" Nini asked.
Marika also followed suit, pulled the "stirrup" on the other side and said loudly: "Okay, let's go."
Wang shook his head: "I have a completely new understanding of the physical capabilities of your elves."
Marika: "I'm actually okay. My arms and chest muscles are not particularly developed. The guy on the other side is just casually pulling a long bow. His entire arm must be full of muscles."
Nini: "Yes. Longbows require relatively high strength."
Wang: "Okay. Let's take off!"
Xiaobai immediately started flapping his wings and soared into the sky.
As soon as they took off, Rosalie shouted: "Wait a minute! You missed the barbarian and the dwarf!"
The gryphon touched its beaks up and down, and Wang felt like she smacked her lips.
Then the gryphon reluctantly flew back, picked up the rope net on the deck, and swung it away.
Perhaps because of the lack of weight of the dwarf armor, it feels like the gryphon flies very easily.

On the deck, Rosalie turned to look at her younger brother and sister and said, "Just wait here with me for their return."
Oscar frowned: "I also want to take part in the adventure. My swordsmanship..."
Rosalie: "If you can defeat that drow, the king will probably let you take part in the adventure."
Oscar frowned: "That's too difficult. She has been practicing swordsmanship for a hundred years. Although she said she was defeated by a genius human swordsman, but...it is true that someone who has practiced swordsmanship for eighteen years can defeat someone who has practiced swordsmanship for a hundred years."
Is it possible for someone with a young sword?”
"Yes." Rosalie said firmly, "You can tell just by looking at Wang. That guy is smarter and more knowledgeable than many white-haired academics I have seen."
Oscar: "So only genius humans can join the team, right? Others are immortals who trade age for experience."
Rosalie: "I don't think Elizabeth is very talented. She is only really outstanding in appearance, but she is so beautiful, but as a warlock, she can only shoot scorching rays."
Oscar: "Are you trying to encourage me or do you really think Elizabeth is bad?"
"I really think her strength is average. It's just that the follower Marika she comes with is stronger."
Oscar pursed his lips: "And what you gave me as a gift was my slut."
Rosalie laughed loudly: "It's a novel thing to see you belittling yourself so much."
At this time, the captain of the New Star Chaser said: "If nothing unexpected happens, there might be a lizard man joining us this time. Lizard men are a short-lived species. Even if they live long at thirty years old, most lizard men will not live past 20 years old."
"Really?" Oscar asked.
The captain replied: "Really. That's why it is rare to hear that humans and lizard people become friends, because they are too short-lived. After a few years of getting to know each other, you can attend their funerals."
"Although humans are a short-lived race compared to dwarves and elves, they can still live for sixty years. Nobles and the like who are well-maintained often live to seventy or eighty years old."

On Wang's side, when he was flying in the sky, he always felt that Elizabeth was pressing against him.
"Elizabeth, it's a little hot. You should put some distance between us and let the wind blow between us," he said.
"Oh." Elizabeth pulled away angrily, and the wind blew in.
Marika: "Can you stop being so incomprehensible to me?"
Wang: "I don't understand Fengqing anymore. I already said we could do that, and I just wanted to find out what it was about. She refused!"
Marika: "You are calling it incomprehensible."
"I don't understand the charm anymore. We obviously love each other. I see her reaction, and she sees my reaction. Is my attitude wrong?"
Marika looked at Elizabeth, who was already blushing, and shook her head.
Wang was still talking loudly: "I have seen it very clearly during the past few days in the captain's cabin. In the morning when she was not wearing a corset and a whalebone breastplate, it appeared on her nightgown as soon as she saw me... Don't
Pinch my feet!"
Marika: "Shut up."
Wang: "Why should I shut up...Oh, I understand, okay I'll shut up."
As soon as he finished speaking, the gryphon under his crotch clicked its beak. It was probably Xiaobai's way of showing that she was laughing.
Wang said worriedly: "Just smile, don't change back! Although I have prepared the Feather Falling Technique, this is actually intended to be used later when we enter the underground palace and encounter the shaft."
Nini: "Do you want to fall down the shaft again?"
"Hey, you are well prepared. After all, my Feather Falling Technique saved my life last time. Otherwise, we would have had to transform into a dragon in the shaft, and then the time for transforming into a dragon would run out. Whether we can escape later depends on our fate.
I even prepared two Feather Fall spells today. After all, I have been promoted to the fourth level, and I have one more spell slot in the first level."
Elizabeth: "Did your right eyelid twitch or your left eyelid today?"
"Didn't even jump. I paid close attention to the condition of my eyelids when I came up in the morning. After all, I was going to attack the stronghold of the cult. But there was no movement. Either the cult had seen so many lizard warriors coming and had moved, or the lizard warriors could
Crush the cult. These guys are very reliable in melee combat."
At this time, Nini suddenly said: "There is thick smoke on the ground ahead."
Wang frowned: "What?"
"There is thick smoke on the ground. Xiaobai is basically flying along the tributary you took yesterday. I guess that should be the lizard man village you visited yesterday." Nini reported truthfully.
King: "Can you tell when the fire started?"
"I can only tell you that the fire was very strong. Almost the entire village was burning. But when did it start... I'm sorry, I really don't have the ability."
Wang was speechless: "Damn it, I thought yesterday that the cult could only do some small things against the lizard people, and it shouldn't have enough power to do anything to the lizard people. Did I make a mistake in my judgment?"
Marika: "Now I suggest we retreat immediately. Since the enemy can burn the lizardmen's village, they can ambush us below."
Wang: "Nini! You have good eyes, can you see the ambusher?"
Nini: "The woods are too dense and there is thick smoke blocking the view."
Wang thought for a few seconds and said: "Let's land first, by the river. Marika! You go to investigate, I believe in your stealth ability."
Marika: "Okay."
After saying that, she immediately let go of her hand holding the "stirrup", then switched to a diving posture, and rushed down towards the ground.
Wang: "Wait until I cast the Slow Falling Technique on you!"
Nini: "It's just a small height, Zall shouldn't be afraid."
After saying that, she also let go.
Wang: "What's going on with you two? You're competing, right?"
Marika fell directly into the dense forest, while Nini landed directly on the treetops. It turns out that forest elves can really "fly" in the treetops.
King: "Damn, you elves, do you dare to exaggerate your physical abilities?"
After losing two elves, Xiaobai's flight was obviously much lighter. She found a shoal by the river and first threw the rope net below into the shallow water.
The dwarf's curse came: "Caris Newman's belly button! Fuck!"
Then the larger griffon landed in the waterless part of the shoal.
It's hard not to doubt that she did it on purpose.
After landing, Wang suddenly became alert: "Wait a minute! The two elves are gone, and we have no vigilance ability now! Elizabeth, call your magic pet quickly, as animals they can provide some vigilance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his demon pet passed over the heads of several people, and the crow opened its mouth and said something sarcastic: "Fool, fool!"
The dwarf struggled to get out of the rope net, but ended up being entangled even tighter in the rope net.
At this time, Manzi shouted: "Hey!"
Then use an ax to split the rope net.
The dwarf: "Why is your ax so sharp? Doesn't the ax have high requirements for sharpness?"
Gotrick: "I need to shave."
"Shave!" shouted the dwarf.
Xiaobai changed back at this time and asked: "Do you need me to change into an animal with stronger vigilance ability?"
Wang: "You change!"
So Xiao Bai turned into a big white cat - no, it was a big white tiger!
The king looked at the tiger and said: "Wait a minute, this climate is not suitable for tigers, right? You can become a beast in the rain forest."
Xiaobai roared at Wang and turned into a white leopard.
Wang: "That's right! That's it! You go up the tree to be on guard, and lay out an ambush. Flint! Recall your armor, and we'll be ready! Maybe the cult will make a sneak attack!"
Flint's armor had returned to him, and Shorty shouted, "Got it!"
