Sylvia turned her head and looked at the Feast Palace behind her, then at the backpack she was carrying behind her, and asked Leo in disbelief: "We walked out like this?"

"They should have walked out like this." Leo nodded and said with some doubts: "It seems too relaxed. It's a little different from what we expected. Have the guards of the French Palace always been so lax?"

"Of course not." Sylvia shook her head, but for a moment she didn't know how to prove her words, because judging from the situation just now, the palace guards were incredibly lax.

Starting from the underground Seventh Research Institute to the outside of the Feast Palace where they are now, although the two of them encountered some small obstacles, overall it was very smooth, and in the last section they came out of the treasure house and passed through the underground station of the Royal Guard to

Feast Palace, the walk out of Feast Palace is as easy as walking in your own back garden.

Originally, Leo and Sylvia thought that there would definitely be a fight on the way out of the treasure house, and they were even prepared to fight their way out, but in the end they did not encounter any danger.

The two teams of knights and attendants guarding outside the treasure house, the heavily armored soldiers guarding the passage, and the knights and knights attendants walking back and forth inside the Royal Guard station. So many people seemed to be blind.

He turned a blind eye and had no doubt about the identity of the two scholars, and no one came forward to ask.

After that, none of the palace guards, palace attendants, chambermaids, maids, etc. in the Feast Palace expressed any doubt about the identity of the two people, even though Sylvia was carrying an extremely eye-catching backpack behind her.

Leo walked to a stand in front of the Feast Palace and glanced at the undulating palace buildings in front of him. He found that there were a large number of guards stationed inside these buildings and on the corridors. The positions and patrol routes of these guards were very different.

Look, they seemed to be more concerned about what was going on outside the palace, so Leo said: "After the French Palace was built, it has never been invaded. It can be seen that the French Palace is very tightly guarded, but their strictness seems to only target intruders from outside.

As far as the intruders are concerned, they seem to be unprepared for our penetration from within.”

Sylvia thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and said, "That's good, it saves us a lot of trouble." As she said that, she looked towards the southeast side of the palace, and then pointed to the palace in the distance.

Several towering stone pillars in the building said: "The airship usually docks in the square there."

Leo also followed Sylvia's line of sight and looked over there. Although the square was blocked by the layers of palace buildings, Leo's extraordinary eyesight still helped him see the square clearly through the gaps between the buildings.

some situations above.

As Sylvia said, there was indeed an airship parked there in that square, but that airship did not seem to be the one that picked up Colin, but another one, smaller in size.

And there were many people like mechanics around the airship, who were conducting certain tests on the airship.

Leo told what he saw. Sylvia immediately understood what was going on and said: "The Royal Academy should be conducting airship testing there. It seems that we are going to pilot a new aircraft with unknown performance."

It’s an airship.”

After saying that, Sylvia led the way with her backpack on her back, and Leo followed closely behind. The two of them walked from a spiral staircase not far away to a corridor on the next floor, and then passed through a downward corridor.

The path passed through two arches and walked into the small garden of the palace, and then walked towards the square.

As Sylvia described, the palace is very tightly guarded. In addition to the royal guards patrolling fixed routes, there are also at least ten heavy-armored guards guarding some key places. In addition, above some palace buildings, there are

Facilities such as warning points can easily see the surrounding situation. Alarm measures are set up at the warning points. As long as there is the slightest abnormal movement, the entire palace will enter a state of martial law.

However, for Sylvia, these palace guards and warning arrangements are of no use. She is very clear about the role and importance of every building in the palace. She knows where to go and will be intercepted and questioned, so she always finds it.

Some routes can bypass the interception point and continue to advance towards the square.

Along the way, although the two of them encountered many palace guards and royal guards patrolling back and forth, they were not intercepted and asked about their identity once. Maybe some people were a little confused about the package Sylvia was carrying.

But they were just confused, and they didn't know whether it was because their attitude was too natural, or whether the clothes they wore as royal scholars played a role.

During the march, Leo also saw Turing arrays with unknown purposes hidden in a large number of decorative patterns in many places in the palace. These Turing arrays can be said to be similar to the tower wizard Turing arrays.

The encyclopedia contains not only the Turing root combination methods that Leo has learned before, but also more Turing array layout techniques that Leo has not learned. If the place and timing were not inappropriate, Leo might have stayed in

Learn here the core content of the Tower Wizard.

Now that I think about it, it is not so difficult to understand that the Count Phelps I met before is a wizard with the inheritance of the Tower Wizard. Looking at the current construction situation of the Fran Palace, it is not difficult to find that the Tower Wizard had a certain period of time and

The relationship between the French royal family and the French royal family is very good, so much so that the inheritance system of some high tower wizards was directly left here by the French royal family.

However, now that the Turing Arrays that were used for defense have moved here with the statue of the Stone Throne, they have all failed. Before the power of the Stone Throne disappears, these Turing Arrays cannot have any effect.

of.

About ten minutes later, the two of them walked to the edge of the square without any danger. At this time, there were seven or eight guards standing around the airship in the square. They were not alert to the surrounding situation, but curious.

As they watched the airship, they never thought that there would be any attack behind them.

Next to the airship, there were seven or eight people dressed as mechanics who were adjusting the flying wings of the airship and the steam jet accelerator on the rear side. It seemed that they were testing this new type of airship.

This airship is different from the airships Leo saw before. First of all, the airbag of the airship and the fuselage of the airship are not separate but integrated. In addition, the overall shape of the airship's airbag looks like a kind of sea barracuda, slender and sharp.

Finally, the propeller in the stomach of the airship no longer uses a propeller airflow propeller, but a steam jet propeller.

All the technologies used on this airship are not new technologies, but technologies that have existed in the past.

When Leo took over the machinery manufacturing plant and metal smelting plant in the Port of Set, he purchased a large number of machinery-related books in order to study the development of steam machinery in the world. These books also included some first-class books.

Such as the fantasy of steam machinery.

All the seemingly innovative aspects of this airship now come from some steam mechanical fantasies, such as the shape of the sea barracuda, the airship battle in a book called "Aerial Romance", and the steam jet thrusters.

It comes from a book called "The Sea Merchant King", but the propulsion device in that book was used on sea-going ships.

Apparently the flange airship mechanics got inspiration from those seemingly absurd books and created the airship in front of them. It should still be in the experimental stage now, and it seems that the flange emperor doesn't pay much attention to it, otherwise it will be

We will not assign a few people to be responsible for the security of this airship, nor will we allow people in the palace to approach the airship at will.

Just like now, Leo and Sylvia easily walked through the unsuspecting palace guards, and they did not stop them.

After the two of them walked to the group of mechanics who were doing the final inspection, Sylvia directly asked tentatively: "Are all the preparations for the test done?"

The mechanics who were doing final maintenance were stunned when they heard Sylvia's inquiry. Obviously they didn't know Sylvia, but their eyes changed after seeing the scholar robes on Sylvia and Leo.

He showed a respectful look and answered without any concealment: "The fuel has been prepared and ignited, and a new round of tests can be carried out at any time. Are you ready to participate in this test?"

"Yes. Both of us are participating in this test." Sylvia nodded and said.

Although the mechanics did not understand why two royal scholars were interested in testing this experimental airship, they did not dare to ask more questions because they knew very well that in the palace, the less they knew, the safer they would be.

If you accidentally learn some forbidden knowledge, you may not even know how you died.

So they did not ask Leo and Sylvia any more about these matters, quickly completed the maintenance of the airship, and then waved to the royal guards responsible for the security of the airship, and welcomed Leo and Sylvia onto the airship.

, and then the royal guards also boarded the airship, but they were confused by the two people who suddenly joined, Leo and Sylvia, because these two people were not among the orders they received.

But they didn't want to ask any more questions, because the performance of the mechanics just now showed that these two people should also be participants, otherwise the mechanics would have driven them away.

After everyone got on the airship, the pilot responsible for controlling the airship walked to the rudder of the airship and quickly pulled a few controls next to it. There was a noise in the airship, and then the whole thing started to vibrate a few times, and then

Then it slowly floated up and flew into the air.

Although this was not the first time to test this airship, the mechanics and guards who participated still felt a little nervous. Even though the flight was going smoothly now, their nervousness had not subsided.

"Now test the propulsion capability." After the airship rose to a certain height, the pilot stopped rising, and then pulled the pull rod of the steam jet thruster. A powerful impulse came out instantly, and the spacecraft rushed forward at an extremely fast speed.

.

Although the mechanics and guards were on guard, they were still staggered by the sudden momentum. Even the driver fell to the ground because of the unexpectedly strong momentum, and his hands naturally broke away.

Take the steering wheel.

The out-of-control rudder rotated rapidly, causing the airship to lose its direction. When an accident was about to happen, Leo grabbed the rudder and quickly turned it twice to get the airship back on track. At this time, the airship was already on track.

After flying out of the palace, both Leo and Sylvia could feel the extraordinary power of their bodies returning to normal.

"Thank you, thank you! If it weren't for you, something would have happened," the pilot got up from the ground, thanked Leo repeatedly for taking control of the helm, and then said, "Let me drive! We have now flown out of the test range.

If you don't go back immediately, you will be punished."

"It doesn't matter, this airship did not fly out of my test range." Leo easily controlled the rudder, adjusted the direction of the airship to the direction of the Black Forest, and said to the pilot.

Leo's words were not very loud, but they could still be heard by everyone in this semi-sealed environment.

Not only was the driver puzzled by Leo's words, but other people also had doubts on their faces.

However, their doubts did not last long. One mechanic realized something and shouted: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

At this time, everyone realized that Leo and Sylvia's identities were probably not who they thought they were. The mechanics were so frightened that they sat on the ground, and the royal guards all touched their weapons.

, obviously wanting to catch Leo and Sylvia and atone for their sins.

But before they could make any move, a strong pressure appeared on them out of thin air, and then they felt as if they were being suppressed by a huge boulder. They couldn't breathe, and their vision went dark and they fainted.

"It feels so good to have power! It was so uncomfortable before." Sylvia couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the effects of releasing her power.

Leo was not that emotional. He felt that the thrust of the airship was weakening, so he said to Sylvia: "You drive the airship, and I'll add some fuel."

After saying that, he handed over the control of the airship to Sylvia, and he found the location of the furnace room through the spiritual network, picked up the shovel, and shoveled the fuel next to it into the furnace.

After a large amount of fuel was added to the originally slowed-down airship, it began to maintain a high flying speed and soon flew out of Donglin City.
