Chapter 72: The Tin Knight and The Land of Deep Green (2)
The carriage of Dorothea’s party was an exceptionally high-quality luxury item.
Thanks to the extensive use of leaf spring technology, it had excellent ride comfort, superior insulation that made it suitable for use as a mobile base, and was resistant to wind and rain.
Lorentz Halder, the head of the Halder Company, had handed over such a top-quality item to curry favor with the party.
However, no matter how luxurious a carriage was, it didn’t have the function to move normally inside a lake.
It was the limitation of being a ground type instead of a water type.
As the carriage’s compartment gradually sank into the deep water, Dorothea quickly extracted herself.
She held her staff in her right hand and grasped Adelaide’s nape with her left hand.
Adelaide, seemingly not knowing how to swim, was flailing her arms and legs, and her favorite cloak was tangling around her, hindering her movements.
While Dorothea was somehow swimming upwards carrying deadweight that was more of a penalty than a help for swimming, ominous shadows gathered around her as if to encircle her.
The body size was about as big as an adult’s palm, the teeth were sharp, sharp spine-like things were protruding all over the body, and the colors were varied.
If one were to give an OX quiz asking, “Will this fish bite humans or not?” nine out of ten people would answer that it would bite, judging by its appearance.
