(); Lin never thought about living in that kind of place. You can really think about it with your buttocks. People who live in the sky don’t have eyes on the top of their heads. It’s a waste of time for them to live so high. They also brazenly call themselves "heavenly beings", which shows how much they despise their compatriots crawling on the ground.
From many records about the floating city, this point has been emphasized again and again. Although many gorgeous words are used to modify the real situation, readers are mistakenly thought that the floating city is a paradise on earth, and everything inside is beautiful. In fact, all kinds of discriminatory remarks are spread out in front of everyone, almost to the extent of brainwashing.
It’s no wonder that the floating city is also welcomed by the nobles. More than a symbol of status, what could satisfy the vanity of a noble person more than living in heaven and overlooking all living beings from above?
But it doesn't take into account the people who live there, or what other people think. The simple and beautiful scenery of mountains hanging in mid-air makes someone very interested and always wants to see it with their own eyes.
It is very rare for us to travel to another world. Without taking a look at the scenery here that is different from the earth, we only want to transform this place into the earth. Isn't life too hard?
In what was supposed to be such a leisurely afternoon, two apprentices took the initiative to resolve some unscrupulous traps, but the carriage still slowly stopped, at an inappropriate time and inappropriate location.
"Well, teacher, I might want to ask you to take a look." Kaya sat on the driver's seat, turned her head, and greeted someone in the car from the hood.
Using his hands and feet, Lin climbed to the front of the carriage, stretched his head out from between the two girls from the open hood, and asked: "Why did you stop? Is the road broken? Is there a tree falling down? Or is it? …There’s a stupid trap in the middle of the road.”
Before anyone could reply, Lin himself saw the reason why the carriage stopped. The road we were taking now was far away from the forest. Because there was no rain, all we could see was wasteland. There were no tall trees or weeds nearby. Occasionally, I saw a few short bushes, which were considered a rare green.
However, it is a road like this. Everywhere you can see is yellow soil, but there is a large round green... turf in the middle of the road? To be honest, it looked more like a poor bush, broken into branches and spread on the ground, rather than a turf. Not far away, you can still see a few shrubs with only their trunks left and no green leaves at all.
"This is a trap, this is definitely a trap!" someone commented on the obvious.
Kaya, who was in charge of driving, said: "I'm just wondering if such an obvious trap is just a bait. The real fatal place is on the road we pass by on the detour."
Regarding the setting up of serial traps, it was actually a series of attacks and defenses of psychological warfare. The relevant knowledge had already been told to the two girls who were still half-grown at that time. Although it can be used to trick those uncivilized goblins, it can be fun. But the most important thing is to teach them how to prevent, not how to harm others.
And such a large trap almost occupies the entire road, leaving very little space for the carriage to pass. It can be regarded as a roadblock, and should not be classified as a trap. According to one person's classification, the so-called roadblocks are set up to deliberately guide others in the direction of travel. The purpose is of course to guide the target into a trap or a predetermined ambush position. Stopping others from moving forward is the most crude idea.
So it's no wonder that Kaya is worried about whether this obvious trap may hide any unexpected surprises.
Lin didn't say much nonsense, moved his steps, and came to the front of the carriage. Normally, this kind of mine clearance work would be done by Halumi, a wild girl who is not afraid of the sky or the earth. And there is no need to deliberately give her instructions. This wild girl's usual running behavior is actually equivalent to clearing mines, and she is completely unconscious. So it was a great blessing to see her only slightly injured.
As a teacher, it was certainly impossible for Lin to carry out such a task in person. He directly cast a tornado magic, sweeping across the entire field. Under the strong wind, no traps except those buried in the soil can remain intact.
When all the dust settled and only a mess was left, all the traps were revealed in front of everyone. There were no unexpected surprises, and no traps hidden outside the traps. There was only a huge hole exposed after the branches and weeds covering the top were blown away by the wind.
Lin had only one comment on this simple and crude trap: "It's so damn unethical!"
The hole was more than a person tall, with many spiked branches sticking out from the bottom, and venomous snakes swimming in the gaps. To be fair, even a magician would not be immune if he really fell into this trap.
But what was the original disguise of this deadly trap? I have heard of unfinished buildings, but I have never heard of unfinished buildings. The most important thing is, who will fill such a big hole in the middle of the road? No wonder someone saw the true face of the trap and couldn't help but curse.
After looking around carefully again, someone was speechless again. There is a small mound not far away. After the tornado, a lot of sand was blown away. But it's still quite substantial. What was not noticed at first was that this mound was obviously made of newly excavated soil and was not a natural landscape that had been formed for a long time.
In other words, the person who worked so hard to create this trap didn't finish it well at all, leaving flaws everywhere. If you want to punish a magician like this, whose intelligence are you insulting?
What's even more tragic is that we have to help those idiots deal with the aftermath! It was said that before I traveled through time, girls would give me good guy cards. It was never the reason for picking up trash on the ground and then throwing it into the trash can. Why is it that after traveling through time, it’s just a waste of time?
While constantly cursing about "God damned wicked devils" and "cats born to dogs and raised by pigs," Lin first called two girls to help him, and together they picked up the poisonous snakes in the hole and threw them into the wilderness. He wanted to fill in the soil directly. Anyway, the most indispensable thing in the land was these venomous snakes and beasts. It's a pity that the girl who was about to change her profession to Druid put on a posture of resisting to the death and gave up someone's original idea.
For a different idea and approach, although I really want to keep a few poisonous snakes, after all, soaking poisonous snakes in strong wine is a great tonic. And it is foreseeable that the body may be very weak recently, and it really needs to be replenished. But if there are poisonous snakes and no wine, we can only look forward to it and sigh.
Of course, those reptiles without legs are poisonous, and it is impossible to catch them with bare hands without any protection. But this is a magical world. It is possible to just use a magic giant palm to pick up those reptiles and release them far away.
What's more troublesome is that those reptiles are very slippery. It may not be easy to catch it with bare hands, let alone with inflexible magic hands.
After a lot of tossing, I finally cleared out the snake, and then pushed the hill-like soil back into the hole. Even with the use of magic, the huge workload still made the master and apprentice sweat profusely. Halumi escaped because of a leg injury.
The various assassins hiding a little further away, peeping at the magician and his party from a high position, were also speechless at what they saw. Everyone looked similar to the magicians who were busy working, and they were all in the same mess.
Suddenly a younger assassin said, "In fact, if the target is as tired as a dog, we can still achieve half of the goal."
Several more experienced assassins lowered their heads feebly. I regretted endlessly why I agreed to help set up that trap that was so stupid that I couldn't stand it. This is definitely a black record in his career.
The one with a hot temper scolded him directly. "Which idiot is doing the last disguise? He did it to make someone laugh."
Others scolded: "I've said it a long time ago, I don't agree with any kind of big trap. If you have to do it forcefully when time is urgent, the result is that everyone is exhausted and half dead, but there is no result. Let that magician waste some time Khan, it’s nothing like achieving half the goal.”
Of course, those people being alluded to are not cowards who only get scolded and don't fight back. Not to be outdone, they scolded back: "It's easy to say, and you all know that there is not enough time. As a result, as soon as they heard that the target person was approaching, they ran away one by one, leaving everything to others. Not to mention that from here... It was not suitable to be a trap in the first place, as there was no good cover around it.”
"That's right!" A companion next to him, who was also left behind at the last moment to finish the work, said angrily: "It's not that we didn't do the preliminary work. Everyone is equally tired, why should we be responsible for the final aftermath? Work, and then you complain that it’s useless.”
There are also those who are trying to smooth things over and sell their opinions, saying: "If you ask me, don't play with these nonsense. There is a section of the road ahead that is a canyon terrain. Just lay an ambush there, attack this team, and then call it a day. There is no need to fight again." Time is wasted on this group of people.”
"Attack a group of magicians? Are you sure there is nothing wrong with your mind? Why do I think that is a stupider idea than that stupid trap. Have you figured out the method of protecting the magicians? Is there a way to break through? There is nothing, and you want to die. If so, I won’t accompany you.”
"Huh, what a bunch of cowards!"
"If you can do it, go ahead. Don't think that no one knows how many times you betrayed your companions and abandoned them at the most critical moment, just to escape for your own life. Do you think that as long as all your companions die, you will be the only one left to survive? , no one knows about this kind of thing. Let me tell you, it is still the same group of murderers who will publicize these things as if they are showing off."
"Who are you calling the traitor?"
"That means there are a lot of people your age who have survived to this day by eating human blood."
In the past few days, a group of people who have been doing useless work have temporarily united for profit. But the lack of results seems to have exhausted most people's patience. Especially the group of people who already have hatred for each other.
Little John, who took the lead in gathering this group of people, fell behind everyone and looked playfully at the group of people biting each other. When these people get together, things are no longer dominated by him. So he quietly pulled away from his original position and didn't let himself sink too deep, so he didn't suffer too much loss.
But in fact, from another perspective, his loss is the biggest. Not only is there the benefit of a magic stone vein, but there is also a comrade who has a life-long friendship. Thinking of this, I looked up to the sky and sighed.
