Steampunk Era: Mad Abield

"Trust me, your armor is more reliable than this thing." After saying this, Sage Fang patted Konen’s large bald head and then walked to the cockpit. Through the helmet, he patted the head of the Domestic Fairy pilot: "Malin’s communication channel is 157423. After sending them into the Dark Zone, remember to return to the airborne ship in the sky and maintain contact."

"Yes, Sage Fang." The Domestic Fairy nodded.

Malin confirmed the channel on the headset and verified communication with the pilot. The team members also did confirmations as well. It is said that this thing uses a relay system, and in the Dark Zone, the high altitude data relay is done by large airborne ships—not the anti-gravity kind Malin imagined, but rather small platforms based on hot air balloon principles, basically positioned below the stratosphere. The upper layer can dock several small flying boats, the lower layer is the human resting area and relay system placement zone.

Usually, these airborne ships aren’t large, as their size targets would be too evident and dangerous over the Dark Zone—who knows if what runs on the ground happens to have anti-air and counter capabilities.

Regarding the lifting of the flying boat, Konen expressed the utmost awe towards this kind of thing. In his memory, the best mechanical creation within the city-state of biochem humans is motorcycles, which belong to the Thainan caravan. They are usually able to help transport some things, but when the fleet arrives, motorcycles have to first service Thainan fleets.

Jason expressed a certain degree of respect—he knew exactly how much effort it required to make such a thing fly again, and so he asked Bei Luo about the power system of this contraption.

Although Malin’s area also has this device, it was repaired by patching together parts that existed before the Great Destruction, so in terms of quantity compared to Eastern Land... what’s there to compare? Simply no contest.

After takeoff, Malin saw at least thirty.
