The hot air balloon was designed to be extremely large by Zhuang Hong, and it was not far from Shoujiang City.

After it took off, many people in the city discovered the huge hot air balloon.

After a while, the entire Shoujiang City became lively. Almost everyone looked up, happy and surprised, as if they had seen something extraordinary.

Some people even thought that this was the car of the god, who was traveling around the world in it, and they knelt down to pray.

Zhuang Hong originally wanted to float directly to the northeast, but after seeing the shouting people all over the city, he suddenly made an impromptu decision and controlled the hot air balloon to fly over Shoujiang City.

Ever since, the people on the hot air balloon looked down at the people below the city, and the people below the city looked up at the people on the hot air balloon. Both sides felt an unprecedented sense of novelty.

Until the hot air balloon flew to the distant horizon and was no longer visible, Shoujiang City was still bustling with activity.

This is destined to be the most talkative thing in their lives.

After listening to Zhuang Hong explain the principles of a hot air balloon and learning how to operate a hot air balloon, Dai Zhengxin kept muttering as if he was possessed: "Hot air rises, cold air falls, the effects of force are mutual..."

He looked again at the fire-throwing device that sometimes shot out flames like a hot air balloon, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

"The wonder of this world is that it turns out that there are not only runes, but also more world rules hidden around us. It's just that we lack a pair of eyes to discover. Brother Zhuang didn't lie to me. Runes can really change people's lives completely. The world will never be the same again."

Wen Zhijing also came to Dai Zhengxin's side and said: "As long as we continue to explore and move forward, the future we dream about will definitely become a reality."

Zhuang Hong sat aside and watched the two of them encouraging each other, his eyes flashing with longing for the future, and said secretly: "It's true that runes can achieve various effects, but if you want to popularize them, you have to find cheap energy that is suitable for runes. Otherwise, In the end, it can only benefit those who have the talent for cultivation."

However, Zhuang Hong did not say anything to discourage them.

Maybe we can find suitable cheap energy in the future? Everything is possible.



Traveling in a hot air balloon is much faster than walking on the ground.

You can ignore the complex terrain, but it will be affected by strong winds. It's okay to fly with the wind, but it will be more difficult to fly against the wind.

In addition, there are some inconveniences.

For example, after flying for less than four hours, Dai Zhengxin said with an ugly face: "Brother Zhuang, do you think you should stop for a while to solve some personal problems?"

Zhuang Hong opened his eyes and saw that everyone looked uncomfortable with suffocation. He suddenly realized: "Yes, you still have to eat, drink, and defecate. You really should stop and rest."

When everyone heard this, they secretly complained: "It sounds like you don't have to eat, drink or poop."

After a short rest, they set off again. Dai Zhengxin and Wen Zhijing took turns controlling the hot air balloon, flying when they should and stopping when they should.

Zhuang Hong closed his eyes and leaned on the basket, entering the world of sea of ​​consciousness to study the runes.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

"Get up and take a look. There is a harbor city over there."

At this time, a student shouted excitedly.

After hearing this, everyone stood up from their baskets and looked into the distance, seeing the huge and busy seaport city in the distance.

"Is that the boat ride to Lingmen Port of Linghai Gate?"

"I don't know, but according to the prediction, it should be here."

Dai Zhengxin: "How about we put the hot air balloon away first and then walk there together to see?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately agreed.

I have been flying for ten days. After the novel and exciting period, I really miss the feeling of having fun on the ground.

Zhuang Hong also stretched out his waist: "Just in time for a walk, some exercise."

So Dai Zhengxin lowered the hot air balloon, folded it, and stuffed it into Zhuang Hong's storage bag.

The group of people walked towards the port.

This seaport city is called Lingmen Port, and it is the port leading to the Linghai Gate that Zhuang Hong and others are looking for.

Lingmen Port is not big, but it is bustling with people coming and going. Less than half of them are rune masters, and there are countless workers who are bare-chested loading and unloading goods. Large ships are docked next to the harbor, waiting for the goods to be loaded and unloaded to set sail. set sail.

Zhuang Hong and others are no longer in a hurry to go to the Linghai Gate at this time. They plan to get the specific information here first. It is not advisable to land on the island foolishly.

They searched for a long time before they found an inn with guest rooms. After washing up, they gathered in the lobby to dine.

When the waiter was serving the food, Dai Zhengxin took out a few coins and put them in the waiter's hand, and then asked: "This little brother, I want to ask you something, do you know when the ship to the Linghai Gate will leave?" Sailing? We are planning to go to the Gate of Spiritual Sea, but we don’t know if there is a round-trip ship?”

The shop clerk showed a real expression and quickly put away the money: "That's a lot. If you go to the port and ask, 70% of the ships are going to the Linghai Gate. But you are dissatisfied, sir, In recent months, due to the large-scale construction of Linghai Gate, a lot of goods have to be transported from our continent, making the shuttle ships less available.

In addition, the number of Talisman masters going to the Linghai Gate has increased recently, and the boat price is not cheap. I heard that it has recently increased to fifty silver coins per person. There are still many people rushing to go, and even those with money may not necessarily get a place. . So if you want to take a boat to the island, you still need to make a reservation and queue up. It will take three to five days no matter what. "

Dai Zhengxin asked in surprise: "Why did the number of people landing on the island suddenly increase?"

Guy: "In the past, no one knew the location of the Spiritual Sea Gate, and the Talisman Master didn't let us spread the word. But didn't we need a lot of supplies a few months ago? The news spread through the purchasers, and many Talisman Masters They all come here because of its reputation, how can it not be more?"

"I see. I wonder how big the Linghai Gate is and whether it can squeeze in so many people..."

To be precise, they got the information from those merchants, so they easily found this place.

The clerk said: "Don't worry, Linghai Gate is not a small island, but a huge island. It doesn't matter how many people can go there."

"you've been to?"

The guy smiled awkwardly: "No...although I haven't been there, I've heard of it."

"If we go by boat, how long will it take to get there?"

"The slower one may take three days, and the faster one can arrive in two days."

After the guy left, Dai Zhengxin said: "Do we have to wait a few days to board a boat to the island, or..."

In the vast sea, we don't know where the gate of the spiritual sea is. It's easy to lose our way, and once we take off, it's not easy to land.

Therefore, in Dai Zhengxin's opinion, it is safer to take a boat.

Zhuang Hong said: "Four or five days are too long. We can just fly there in a hot air balloon. There are so many ships on the sea, so if you follow the direction of the ships, you don't have to worry about getting lost at sea. Moreover, I also have a way to find the gate of Linghai. Do not worry."

After Zhuang Hong demonstrated the technology of hot air balloons, Dai Zhengxin and others, implicitly led by Zhuang Hong, attached great importance to Zhuang Hong's opinions. If it was not a matter of principle, they would not refute it.

Zhuang Hong expressed his stance, and Dai Zhengxin nodded immediately and said: "Okay, then we will fly there in a hot air balloon tomorrow."

The next day, Zhuang Hong and others took the hot air balloon again, flew high into the sky and drifted overseas, flying faster and faster.

In less than a day, Zhuang Hong saw an arch-shaped island from the sky, like an N-shape, enclosing a huge bay.

The top of the arch on the north side is two semi-connected mountains, almost the same height, and the terrain gradually becomes gentle outward along the two wings of the arch.

This island is so huge that Zhuang Hong visually estimated that the distance between the left and right arches exceeds 20 kilometers.

At this time, ships were sailing into the bay one after another and docking at the port.

This island is the legendary Holy Land of Rune Masters - the Gate of the Spiritual Sea.

The height of the hot air balloon slowly decreased, and after flying closer, Zhuang Hong and others could clearly see the huge city in the bay.

Dai Zhengxin, Wen Zhijing and all the students were all stunned, and the shock in their hearts was beyond words.

Even the well-informed Zhuang Hong could not hide his surprise.

I couldn't help but murmured: "Why does this city look like a steampunk..."

The city at the Spirit Sea Gate and the city on the mainland seemed to be two different worlds.
