"Crimson Scorpion? What is this?"

When Lance returned to the deck, the first strange noun he heard could not help but ask.

The process of catching the blonde woman was very simple. Lance followed her out of the ship - because the protective cover of the floating boat was energy-limited, and it was generally not opened in a safe area. It would only add a thin air filter outside to increase the oxygen content on the deck. After all, more people on the flight were mortals.

This layer of air filter naturally could not stop the blonde woman. The problem was that after she jumped out of the sky, Dongfang immediately flew over a black magic carpet and took her away.

Lance had the ability to keep her, but he didn't do it because he had his concerns.

So he quickly returned to the deck.

However, the acting captain named Regis told him frowningly about the possible origin of the blonde woman just now.

"The little scorpion you pulled out of Gianna's hair just now looks very much like a group of robbers who have been active on this route recently. The name of its organization is the Crimson Scorpion. The leader of the Crimson Scorpion is a fierce woman. In the past year, at least three batches of floating boats have disappeared inexplicably - unlike other robbers, this robber organization is very high-profile. They call themselves Crimson Scorpion and claim to be responsible for the disappearing floating boats."

"The fallen hills and the mountain city Gordon have joined forces twice to try to lift the biggest cancer on this route, but they failed because they could not find the den of the Crimson Scorpion at all."

"Anyway, this is a very difficult opponent. I have to contact the captain immediately, and there are other floating boat leaders..."

Reggis hurriedly finished these words, left the deck, entered the cockpit and began to contact the top manager of the craft.

Lance stood on the deck, silently looking at the airboat lined up behind him, revealing a thoughtful look.

The desert is still so far away that it seems that it will never end, but he knows that at the current speed, he will arrive at the most dangerous place on this route in as little as three days.

In fact, the protective cover of the airship was designed mainly to deal with the cruel natural environment of the Valley of Punishment - and the elusive monsters.

On the eve of this storm, the shadow of a robber organization such as Crimson Scorpion appeared, which is a bit worrying.

"I hope it's just a false alarm..."

He had only one purpose for going south this time, that is, to obtain Aiken Whale Oil. The rest of the matter. He really doesn't want to interfere. After all, he is very close to the third-level wizard when he enters the second-level high-level wizard.

...

"Those guys who have a brain in their minds actually told me that this was just a false alarm!"

In the bar of the craft, facing Regis's roar, Lance kindly reminded: "I remember that the craft seems to be conditioned. The driver cannot drink alcohol."

Regis raised a large glass of absinthe, poured it in, then wiped the bubbles from his beard, and said somewhat lonely: "I have been dismissed for the time being. I really don't understand. It is obviously such an important information. Not only did it not reward me, but it also refuted me that it was my misjudgment!"

"Misjudgment? It's so damn ridiculous. You and that poor Jian can testify to me. That thing is the Crimson Scorpion! The members of the Crimson Scorpion will have similar transformation techniques!"

Lance said thoughtfully: "It's not necessarily true. The members of the Crimson Scorpion can transform, but those who can turn into pink scorpions may not be members of the Crimson Scorpion."

"With that being said, I always feel something is wrong."

The bearded man frowned and said, "No other floating boats encountered this kind of situation, only our floating boats encountered it. This is completely unreasonable. Perhaps this is the main reason why they think I was a misjudgment. After all, if the Scorpion really wants to start, they will definitely not only tamper with the power cabin of one of the floating boats. You know, we have fourteen floating boats!"

Lance tentatively said: "Can they not find it?"

"This is impossible!" Regis shook his head and said, "The people on other floating boats are trained like me, and there is no reason to be careless, especially when the [God of Punishment] is approaching, every floating boat driver will be alert - if you want to enter the power cabin, you must pass through the cockpit, which is the core design of the floating boat."

"So it seems that we may be over-thinking."

Lance said so.

A snap!

Regis angrily threw the wine glass on the table and roared: "Give me another glass!"

...

In the dark night, a few looking hands on the deck were bored and said some dirty jokes. At this moment, a big belly wizard walked over.

"captain!"

"Hello Captain!"

The lookouts hurriedly changed their lazy posture.

The wizard was equipped with a gold belt around his waist and a magic whip in his hand - this was a whip specially prepared by the goblins who designed the airplane. This whip was useless when it left the airplane, but as long as it was on the airplane, the captain could use the magic whip to direct everything in the airplane - temporarily turn, open the protective cover, and even command the cable to kill people.

So on the aerial boat, except for a few wizards, most people are still very awe of the captain, especially the staff.

The captain snorted coldly, without saying a word to blame these lazy lookout hands. He had known the virtues of these guys for a long time and was no longer accustomed to them.

He walked straight into the cockpit - in the evening, in addition to the lanterns at the bow and stern, the cockpit was on.

A driver is working diligently.

"Sir Captain!"

"Well, be alert." The captain said with satisfaction: "We will add defense to the cockpit, so it will be difficult for the Scorpion people to enter the power cabin."

"It's my master! I've already transferred all the good guards on the boat to the outside of the cockpit." The man said, "But I'm a little surprised, why should I dismiss the guy who found the Scarlet Scorpion?"

The captain whispered: "This is the decision after our senior management's overnight meeting. The Scarlet Scorpion is a difficult organization, but they are used to being smooth sailing, and they will inevitably grow a sense of pride. This time, we will let it fall into our hands! We are not ordinary cargo ships, and the members of the [Nightingale] and [Cheethata] in the Eastern Council are evenly distributed on each floating boat, not to mention the people of our chamber of commerce. The reason why we pretend to ignore this threat is to seduce the Scarlet Scorpion out!"

The man suddenly realized and said, "I understand that in this case, the protection of the power cabin is more important."

"But I still have a question." He asked, "Where is the protective shield? Will the Scorpion man do anything there?"

"No." The captain sneered: "For real wizards, protective covers cannot work. As far as I know, the general methods of Crimson Scorpion are to lose power in the airship and towed away by their vehicles. As for destroying the protective cover, it makes no sense to them. After all, this thing is used to deal with monsters."

"Anyway, do you understand that the protection of the power cabin and cockpit is spared no effort to strengthen the protection of the power cabin and cockpit?"

The driver nodded quickly.

In the shadows around the cockpit, many people were gathering.

And the same thing happened on the other thirteen floating boats.

But in places where ordinary people's eyes could not notice, black shadows emerged from the darkness like poisonous snakes.

They pretended to wander on the deck of the airboat, and then gradually figured out the location of the target building.

If the captains knew the wandering routes of these shadows, they would probably react immediately - because these routes were completely revolving around a building.

That is the protective cabin with the protective cover function of the floating boat.

...

Two days passed in a flash, and when Lance got up early on the third morning and climbed onto the deck and looked out.

A majestic mountain range was already standing in front of him.

This mountain range is connected to the sky and the earth, as if a natural city wall blocks the hills in the south and the deserts in the north.

There are countless airflows hovering over the mountains, which are very dangerous. Once the airboat is involved, it will only end up crashing!

If you want to pass through this natural barrier, you can only pass through a very narrow gap.

This gap is located in the east of the [First Mountains], and the width of the gap is just enough for a floating boat to fly easily.

The upper part of the gap is the crazy airflow, and the cold stones below it are the only place to enter and exit.

There are many versions of the story about this mysterious and dangerous canyon.

At least Lance heard a lot on the boat these days.

"There is no reason why this place is called [Gao of God Punishment]. By the afternoon, at about dusk, our fleet will be able to reach Gao of God Punishment. Then you will see...the corpses everywhere, including humans, and other aliens. According to legend, a certain battle across the plane was started in this place... The battle lasted for hundreds of years, and I don't know how many lives it died."

"In the end, these dead creatures angered the monarchs of the dead world. These resentful necromancers brought them great trouble - actually I don't know very well, but the world of the dead needs balance, I guess."

"So the monarchs of the Dead World joined forces to bring down the divine punishment. They constructed the first mountain range flat and isolated the two sides of the war. As for this gap, it was a demigod who knocked out with his head..."

Regis stood beside Lance with some emotion and talked in a leisurely manner.

Lance blinked: "This is the fifth version of the story about the Valley of God's Punishment that I have heard in the last three days." (To be continued...)
