Then he waved his hand, signaling the guards to let them pass.
Wei Qiangsheng respectfully cupped his fists towards the elder and returned to Lin Ziming’s side:
"Colonel Lin, let’s board the ship."
Lin Ziming nodded slightly, turned to the mbers of the Huaxia Trade Group, and said: "Let’s board the ship together, everyone!"
After speaking, he straightened his chest and followed Wei Qiangsheng into the passageway.
The group entered the passage.
Led by a blue-robed young man who looked like a receptionist.
They first used a lift platform to reach a higher level inside the ship, twisted and turned, and eventually arrived at a cabin.
The space in this cabin was large, containing hundreds of seats reminiscent of those in a train carriage.
Lin Ziming discreetly touched them; they were made of cotton fabric.
The cabin’s seating was arranged in a 5x10 configuration.
Each row had two groups, with a total of four rows and eight groups, and the far-left row allowed a view of the outside through the porthole.
The blue-robed youth then led everyone to an area, gestured around, and smiled brightly:
"Gibberish gibberish blah blah..."
Wei Qiangsheng nodded as he listened, and just as Lin Ziming was about to ask Wu Fan for a translation, he sensibly ca over:
"Colonel Lin, the gentleman says that seats 55 to 202 are ours. Although the seats are cotton, each ti they are cleaned with purification talismans, ensuring they are very clean.
Additionally, the restroom is at the front; you can activate your seat’s talisman to order food. If you want to upgrade to a better cabin, there’s a charge, and since the Yang Family’s Patriarch in Ziqiong City had a baby daughter, upgrading is discounted to only five spirit stones, buy five get one free, don’t miss out..."
Lin Li: "...."
What’s with this dostic budget airline déjà vu?
After the blue-robed youth left, everyone took their seats.
Since Wang Qiang is a girl, Lin Ziming arranged for her to sit by the window.
After sitting down, Wang Qiang glanced at the window sowhat gloomily, muttered with her head down:
"A supposedly high-class flying ship has turned into a budget airline, it’s still a fantasy world, where’s the promised ancient style? It feels just like second-class seats on a train..."
Lin Ziming chuckled at her, saying:
"After all, this is a cargo flying ship; comfort isn’t comparable to a cruise ship. Plus, look at the surroundings’ lights and the talismans on the chairs—very different from our holand.
How about this, when there’s a chance, I’ll treat you to a trip in a high-class cabin for five spirit stones!"
Wang Qiang raised an eyebrow at him, showing slight doubt:
"Really? Five spirit stones aren’t cheap, that’s almost thirty thousand bucks."
Seeing Wang Qiang doubt him, Lin Ziming was slightly displeased, speaking in a rather formal manner:
"I am after all an official, the benefits aren’t low, co on, living alone without many expenses, treating you to a ride in another world is hardly an issue?"
"Really?"
Wang Qiang’s lips curled into a smile; she pointed with her forefinger: "Look over there, what’s that?"
Lin Ziming followed her direction confusedly and saw that at three or four seats away, Wei Xixi was glaring at him with puffed cheeks.
Lin Ziming: "....!"
What the hell, how did this girl tag along without noticing at first?!
"Good luck with that, Colonel Lin,"
Wang Qiang patted him on the shoulder casually, shaking her head:
"Sobody said thirty thousand bucks is no big deal, I hope to see more than three hundred bucks in your pocket in the future."
After saying this, Wang Qiang took out her portable night vision device and started humming a tune while looking at the scenery outside the window.
Lin Ziming: "...."
He then shook his head, sighing.
Although a bit annoyed by Wei Xixi’s pestering, since she already joined the trade team, facing this established fact was inevitable.
At worst, I’ll just wander around Ziqiong City more these days.
After about half an hour, the flying ship began to slowly float upwards.
Lin Ziming keenly noticed that the flying ship didn’t produce any vibration from thrust when starting.
This sowhat confird that the flying ship is related to the anti-gravity concept—in many respects; the owner or even the creator might not fully understand its specific principles.
Even if there’s a chance to interact and study it in the future, we’ll likely start from scratch.
Once the flying ship was completely airborne, Wang Qiang quietly took out so instrunts from her bag, tinkered with them, and said to Lin Ziming:
"According to the instrunts given to us by Academician Zeng, the flying ship’s altitude is currently around seven thousand ters, traveling at two hundred kiloters per hour, internal pressure about 0.6 atmospheres, communication equipnt signal is normal..."
Gathering data on the flying ship was one of the tasks assigned by the command before departure.
Although unable to obtain detailed propulsion information on the flying ship, analyzing external data to determine so characteristics and partially decrypting its structure was feasible.
Four hours later, the flying ship ceased its flight:
It landed at another city that served as a transit hub alongside Linyuan City.
Very soon, a fresh batch of caravan personnel boarded, completely filling this compartnt.
After another half-hour, the flying ship took off again.....
This cycle repeated no fewer than six tis.
Two days later, the night in Damo Realm faded, returning to daylight.
Just after three suns appeared in the sky, a massive city ca into view from the flying ship.....
At the sa ti.
An announcent in Damo dialect suddenly rang out inside the flying ship, translated into Huaxia by the toolman Wu Fan:
"Dear passengers, the flying ship has arrived over Ziqiong City; please prepare to disembark. Should you wish to purchase a special gift set from the Purple Treasure Pavilion, inquire with any staff mber, prices are favorable and limited quantities....."
