After comforting the passengers, the captain closed the communication circle, and his blue-grey eyes looked to the side of the crew responsible for the magic transmission system.
"Savage, how long can the remaining magic power last?"
"If the air bag protection is always turned on at full power, including the backup magic source, we can still maintain it for about ten minutes, Captain."
Savage is a young man with carrot-colored hair and very lively brown eyes.
At this time, he adjusted the ratio of magic power output to ensure maximum utilization of every magic power, and then quickly reported the situation to the captain.
"ten minutes?"
The captain wearing a white captain's hat nodded, and his frown slightly relaxed.
This length of time is not bad. Although there are many crows, according to his estimation, the airship will be able to completely escape the siege of the iron feather crows in less than three minutes.
As long as he waits until the end of this voyage, he will go to the president of the Chamber of Commerce as soon as possible, and he will have to put back the normal airship defense system no matter what!
But at this moment, a crew member suddenly appeared at the door.
"Your Excellency, the captain, your Excellency the ship's mage has an emergency to report to you!"
"speak!"
Controlling the speed of the airship as steadily as possible, while escaping in the direction where the crows were weakest, the captain turned his head slightly and looked at the crew member who was rushing over, speaking in an urgent tone.
"Your Excellency the Master said that the state of the Iron Feathered Crows is very abnormal! According to his judgment, there seems to be something behind the Iron Feathered Crows that is chasing them!"
After swallowing, the crew member quickly repeated the words of the ship's mage.
"What did you say?!"
Suddenly hearing the news, the captain's expression changed a little.
"Gods—"
It is impossible for ordinary flying monsters to chase such a large group of iron-feathered crows away.
Either it's a large group of carnivorous flying monsters of level 4 or above, or it's a big guy of level 7 or above!
But either way, it means they are going to be in big trouble!
I've seen the devil. This route has been running for so many years, why did such a big problem happen today?
.….….
"Sir Anvis, there are a lot of gray-winged moa sightings in the distance. Do you need me to take action?"
In Avis's room, the door was knocked and Qiao Mu walked in.
"Grey-winged Moa Flock?"
Upon hearing the news, Anvis was speechless.
Although the previous divination results showed that there would be some setbacks, he did not expect that this so-called setback would actually come true so quickly.
He knew about the gray-winged moa, which was a gregarious flying monster that could reach level four in adulthood and had no fixed territory.
They usually feed on other low-level birds and magical beasts, and sometimes eat plants and wild fruits rich in magic power. They are an omnivorous bird.
However, as a gregarious flying monster of level 4 or above, gray-winged MOAs are actually not very common, especially on airship routes.
You must know that the route of the constructed airship is not straight, and it needs to avoid the airspace of many powerful flying monsters along the way.
A mature route has been tested repeatedly to ensure that it can avoid most dangers before it can be truly put into operation.
And on a route that had been sailing safely for many years, it directly ran into a flock of gray-winged moas that were hunting a flock of iron-feathered crows.
This probability is almost equivalent to buying lottery tickets for many years and suddenly winning the jackpot one day.
It was hard for Avis to imagine how unlucky this airship was today.
"Keep them away, Jom, and don't make too much noise."
Nodding, Anvis gave the order.
No matter what, these birds still need to be driven away.
It's okay to just rely on the airship's own defense system and the accompanying fifth-level mage to drive away the iron feather crows.
As for the flock of gray-winged moa following behind, the mage himself might have run away early.
"By the way, let me inform the captain and ask him to stay calm. The situation is still under control."
.….….
At the same time, in the control room.
"The magic detector detected a large number of high-intensity magic reactions! It is suspected...of a group of fourth-level flying monsters!"
Seeing a large cluster of dense red dots on the magic detector, the crew member responsible for the detection panicked and his voice trembled.
Suddenly learning this nightmarish news, everyone felt a little desperate.
"What, what should we do, captain?"
The red-haired young man Savage asked in a low voice like he was dreaming, but it was a question that everyone wanted to know.
His blue-gray eyes stared intently at the large red dots on the detector screen, and his white-gloved hands clenched convulsively, then let go again.
When the situation reached this point, the captain himself calmed down.
"There is no other way, make an emergency landing immediately——"
"But, captain, according to the route map, the depths of the forest below are the territory where high-level monsters are active."
The red-haired young man Savage couldn't help but speak.
The captain had already taken off the white captain's hat on his head and placed it neatly on the airship console. Hearing this, he turned his head and glanced at him.
"No need to worry, you can always trust the security strength of the 'Giant' Constructed Aviation Chamber of Commerce——"
After telling a cold joke, he walked to the console and turned off all propulsion systems.
But just when he was about to push the deflation switch of the air bag all the way, a deep voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Remain calm, Your Excellency. The situation is still under control."
The captain's hand suddenly stopped and he asked in his heart.
"who are you?"
"A faceless man——"
After saying this, the voice disappeared from his spirit.
Then, the area around the airship suddenly became clear, and crows filled the sky falling like raindrops.
The pale golden sunlight, blocked by the crowd of crows, returned to the silver-white surface of the 'Silver Spotted Flower'.
In the distance, a group of menacing giant birds with gray-black wings nearly ten meters long and strange scaly pterosaur-like heads suddenly stopped in unison.
Then, as if they saw some kind of natural enemy, they whined, turned around, and quickly fled away from the airship.
In the display of the magic detection instrument, countless densely packed red dots suddenly paused, and then quickly began to move away from the airship.
Looking at this scene, a crew member who accidentally noticed the change in the red dot couldn't help but rub his eyes.
Then, he suddenly shouted wildly!
"They're gone!"
Hearing his shout, other crew members also looked at the screen in disbelief.
When it was confirmed that they were indeed moving away and not continuing to approach, the atmosphere in the control room suddenly boiled.
"Leaved?"
The captain nodded, took a long breath, and put the captain's hat back on again.
"Go back to your posts and move on -"
.….….
Walking out of the large airport terminal in Dilas, Anvis took a deep breath of the humid air mixed with the salty smell of the sea breeze.
At the same time, he noticed that the fate feedback on his body suddenly increased by about one and a half units again.
