Chapter 948
In the boundless void, there were suddenly hundreds more airships. They were scattered in a large area in a mess, rushing forward in a mess, basically without any formation to speak of.
This kind of posture is more like a group of people going to the same destination happened to meet, so they gathered together with the flow. It belongs to the three-no personnel without organization and discipline.
Ang and his party drove the airship and easily mixed in. Looking at this scene, Negris said in disbelief: "Are they crazy? Don't they know how dangerous this kind of thing is? Actually going to watch the fun?"
Anthony also couldn't help but laugh: "Among hundreds of millions of people, there will always be hundreds or thousands of crazy people who don't want to die. When I recruited manpower to go to the Conch Plane in the Main Plane, I explained that it was an undeveloped abyss and the danger was great, but thousands of people still signed up. Not to mention that these people don't think it's a dangerous thing to take a stroll in the boundless Great Hollow."
Anthony said, signaling everyone to look at the side front. There was a luxury airship there. Not only was its body larger than ordinary airships, but its decoration and layout looked very luxurious, and even the deck was larger than ordinary airships.
For airships flying in the void, the deck is actually a very unnecessary arrangement. The larger the deck, the more advanced air shields are needed to lock the air, otherwise, there is no way for people to stand on the deck.
In order to have enough redundancy, the air shield cannot have only one, but many overlapping ones, and backups are needed to prevent accidents from suffocating on the deck.
So ordinary airships only have a small circle of deck, and air shields are not installed. If you want to go to the deck, you have to set up your own magic air shield.
If it is a luxury airship with a particularly large deck, it is undoubtedly used for sightseeing and entertainment.
Only to see the deck of the airship on the side front was brightly lit. Bright magic lights illuminated the entire deck, and a group of men and women in luxurious clothes were mingling on the deck, actually holding a dance party of not small scale.
When seeing someone on the deck, Ang tilted his head.
"You know them?" Negris asked.
Ang nodded: "Silver Coin."
"Silver Coin also knows? Silver Coin is not here." Negris looked and found that Silver Coin was not there. He had to be ready to set off at any time. Silver Coin was responsible for communicating and coordinating with Aojia'er's side and didn't follow.
Ang had to say: "Commercial Union, Fulke."
Anthony immediately realized: "I know who it is. Silver Coin was projected over at that time, right?"
Back in the Royal City, Ang and his party let Gray Stick disguise as a Green Elf priest to attend the astrology banquet held by the Commercial Union. There, Ang confirmed that the little ghost had followed, and also snatched the newborn godhead of the Commercial Union. That banquet was held by Fulke.
"So it's him. These sightseeing airships wouldn't be organized by him, right? Isn't he from the Commercial Union? Such a big thing, how come Silver Coin doesn't know?" Negris was surprised.
Anthony said: "Silver Coin is just a newborn god of the Commercial Union. His god identity is registered, and he can't do anything out of the ordinary. The business activities of the chambers of commerce under his banner will not report to him either."
It's just like the Church of Light appointing priests, holding activities, and collecting taxes, which will not report to the gods of light. For one thing, these daily affairs are too cumbersome, and the gods are too lazy to care. For another, the operation space of these daily affairs is also the source of wealth and power, which needs to be shared layer by layer. If everything is decided by god, what will the church eat?
"Makes sense. Then what are they doing now? Entertaining customers?" Negris asked.
"Don't know, let's go over and ask." Anthony said, and signaled the airship to approach.
Fulke's luxury airship has a larger tonnage, so it has an airship docking port, which can be used for docking and exiting between two airships while driving.
At the docking port, a crew member and two guards looked vigilantly at the suddenly approaching airship. The crew member's hand was on the alarm, ready to sound the alarm at any time, while the two guards were on guard with weapons.
Anthony took out an iron plate and showed it, then threw it over.
The guards and crew on the opposite side were all startled when they saw the iron plate. After checking it, one of the guards hurriedly went to report, while the remaining crew and guards hurriedly lowered the bridge to let them over.
"What plate?" Negris asked in a low voice.
Anthony whispered: "Silver Coin gave it, audit."
"Oh, checking accounts? No wonder they are so panicked." Negris realized.
The Church of Light is not afraid of auditing. Every time the audit personnel's team entered the desert to check accounts for the Silver Knights stationed in the Dark City, they would run into sand bandits and all die in the desert.
The same goes for Leonard's Holy Blade Legion. They are all violence machines. Audit personnel have the life to check accounts but not the life to hand in the job. Even if he uses 1,000 magic crystals a bottle of holy essence to wipe his face, he is still a heroic, upright, and clean god's knight.
However, the Commercial Union is very afraid of auditing. They are not violence machines, but a merchant association. Their main business is still doing business.
Doing business means having accounts, and they are very complex accounts. Even if there is no act of filling one's own pockets, checking accounts once requires working overtime for several weeks, so the most feared thing within the Commercial Union is auditing.
Good guy, how come these guys came? Fulke, who received the report, didn't even care about the banquet and hurried over to welcome them. When he came to the bridge, he saw a group of guys wearing cloaks.
"Colleagues from the audit department, welcome from afar. I don't know if you are passing by here or have any tasks?" Fulke recalled whether he had any accounts that were not wiped clean, and found that it seemed there were none. Only then did he feel at ease and greet Anthony and others.
Anthony was naturally not here to check accounts. He hurriedly presented the iron plate and said: "No, no, just passing by. Master Fulke, don't be surprised. I am Anthony from the audit department. Hello."
"Lord Anthony, hello, hello. Very happy to meet you." Although Fulke said "very happy", he didn't relax at all when checking the iron plate. After repeated inspections, he confirmed it was true. Only then did he return it: "Lord Anthony, what is the matter with you 'passing by' here?"
"What kind of banquet is this? Why are there so many airships gathered here? Where are they going?" Anthony asked.
Fulke suddenly smiled bitterly: "Sure enough, you are also strange, right? I originally just held a six-day, seven-night luxury star-watching drift tour on the edge of the boundless Great Hollow, invited some important customers and astrology enthusiasts, and prepared to make a turn on the edge of the boundless Great Hollow and go back. Who knows how the news leaked? By the time we set off, airships followed one after another, and it finally became what it is now."
Anthony frowned: "Don't know how the news leaked? You have so many customers on the airship, they should be very rich, right? Don't tell me it was leaked on purpose, and then mixed into the team, preparing to rob you."
Fulke was shocked, his face changed greatly, and he turned and ran to the control room.
Ang and his party hurriedly followed. When they arrived at the control room, they found Fulke standing in front of the porthole with a livid face looking outside. Hearing the footsteps, he turned his head: "There are six airships outside vaguely surrounding my airship."
Speaking of this, Fulke looked at Ang and others deeply: "You appeared here at this time, very suspicious. For safety, please grievance the adults to hand over weapons and equipment first, and wait in the room for a period of time. Someone, catch them."
