Chapter 512: Shocking Flying Island
While Lan Qingyou and the others were forgetting to sleep and eat researching the Illusion Instruments, everyone on the world channel also started a new round of major discussion.
The center of the major discussion was, of course, that flying city.
After a few days of flight, the Flying City Eureka had already left the scope of the Forsaken Territory and was flying towards the northeast of the continent.
It was exactly from this moment on that those Transmigrators who had completely vanished from the Forsaken Territory but were everywhere in other regions finally saw that shocking scene.
If you think about it, it makes sense.
Eating hotpot and singing songs, suddenly looking up and seeing a massive island flying hundreds of meters in the sky, anyone would be shocked at first sight, right?
And after the shock?
The bad habits from Blue Star would emerge.
No matter what they encountered, as long as they weren't in danger, they would take a picture first, and then go back and post it on the world channel to show off.
"This is..."
"A flying island?"
"A sky island?"
"It's fake, right?"
"AsEveryoneKnows, pictures can be Photoshopped."
"Come, come, come, you Photoshop one for me to see. There should be a limit to joking, okay."
"Exactly. People post it for us to see and provide some intelligence by the way. What the hell are you guys joking about at this time, and spamming the screen too."
"Sure enough, fools will never die out completely no matter the time."
"Thank you everyone, the picture is real, and if nothing goes wrong, it should have drifted over from the Forsaken Territory. If nothing goes wrong, it should be the work of those Witches."
Because the person who took the photo was in the northern part of the Forsaken Mountains, right on the edge of the region.
So upon seeing this 'flying island', the first thing that came to mind was the direction of the Forsaken Territory.
Because the expulsion incident in the Forsaken Territory a few months ago made him very clear that only Witches existed within the Forsaken Territory, so he naturally assumed this was some 'good deed' done by the Witches.
"I saw it too. It just flew over the top of my sanctuary. The pressure was really too strong [Picture]"
The second after the first person's clarifying message was sent, another piece of supporting evidence appeared on the world channel.
Looking at the picture in this second message, one could tell it was taken through the magic desk of their own sanctuary.
Because it was taken from the bottom up, and under the condition that it couldn't be adjusted, the entire picture looked even more oppressive.
It also allowed everyone who saw this photo to easily substitute themselves into the perspective of the person who took the photo.
In short, it gave people a feeling of being out of breath.
"How big must this be..."
"It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as blotting out the sky and covering the sun, right?"
"Is anyone in the Forsaken Territory? Go check out exactly what is going on."
"Stop dreaming. Have you forgotten the large-scale expulsion incident in the Forsaken Territory a few months ago?"
"Oh right, I forgot about that..."
Because they had suffered a large-scale invasion, the Witch Clan had a very legitimate reason when driving out everyone who wasn't a Witch.
And it was also because the Witch Clan took the lead that other new races, seeing their own risks, also chose to do the same.
Therefore, although the expulsion incident in the Forsaken Territory was branded with 'Forsaken Territory', in reality, people all over the continent were doing it. So, with the attention divided, compared to the previous wars, the focus on it was actually much lower.
But that didn't mean everyone couldn't remember.
Especially in these past few months, they would occasionally hear things about Witches.
Whether it was the pursuing squads or the sudden appearance of curse-type magic, all were narrating the Witches' unwillingness to let things go.
And now, a flying island this huge floating out from the Forsaken Territory controlled by the Witch Clan looked very amiss no matter how you looked at it.
All smart people wanted to know exactly what had happened in the Forsaken Territory during these few months.
However, this was simply impossible.
So...
These two guys who sent the initial messages were targeted by people.
One private message after another was sent to the accounts of these two guys, and in an instant, it was 99+ messages.
It scared these two guys into thinking something was wrong.
Opening them, they only found out that they were all messages hoping they could go take a look.
Some even offered a considerable price.
Thus, after receiving some deposits, the two guys decided to 'die for wealth like birds die for food'.
There was no helping it; the deposits received were really too much.
Especially the first one; altogether, the deposits alone added up to nearly ten Gold Coins.
And they would only get more after the matter was done.
Under these circumstances, if they didn't risk it now, when would they?
So this guy, after simply packing up, set off directly.
Although the place he lived was in the northern part of the Forsaken Mountains, and wanting to go to the Forsaken Territory required crossing the entire Forsaken Mountains, this little matter was nothing at all for a warrior like him with high defense and thick health.
At most, it was just paying attention to keeping warm.
Anyway, with ten Gold Coins in hand, spending one or two to buy a better magic Tent would be enough to endure it.
Don't be reluctant to spend money; this money could earn much, much more back later.
Moreover, supplies could be stored inside the Tent.
Directly achieving a state of not worrying about food or drink.
And compared to the question of 'where did it come from', some people were more concerned about 'where is it going'.
Yes, where was this flying island going.
They wouldn't naively think that the Witch Clan launched something the size of an island into the sky to pray for blessings like a Kongming lantern.
Who would do something with no benefits.
So, the thing Lan Qingyou had worried about before happened.
"Who knows what the route of this flying island is?"
"I don't know."
"Only a ghost would care about this."
Tsk! What a bunch of useless guys. As expected, do they still have to send their own people to check the situation?
It is said that a clear conscience fears no knock on the door at midnight. These people were the ones who had done wrong and were terrified of Witches coming to their doors.
Some other people were just joining in the fun and watching the excitement, but these people were truly trembling with fear.
Or rather, it was the Witches' methods that made them tremble.
That was why they cared more about the Witches' movements than anyone else.
And Shang Chuan naturally saw these messages on the world channel.
He could even guess the thoughts of some people.
As the 'proxy' of the Forsaken Territory handpicked by Lan Qingyou, he indeed had the qualifications to step forward and explain a bit.
But having the qualifications didn't mean it was necessary.
Sometimes it was just like this.
If you spoke, no one would believe you.
They only believed what they wanted to believe, so they would definitely send people to investigate.
And what he needed to do was his own job well, develop the Forsaken Territory properly, let the Witches earn money, and he would earn money.
When everyone earned money, he, this 'proxy', would absolutely not fall.
On this point, Shang Chuan was very confident.
Or rather, the current momentum and methods of the Witch Clan gave him this confidence.
