Chapter 639 Sky City
"Welcome! ...Ah, it's Mr. Kobayashi and you guys."
"Hello, Wiz."
Xiaolin greeted the poor witch lady store manager and said, "I came here today to look for something. I felt you would know something."
"Looking for something? What are you looking for?"
"A magic item that can fly in the sky."
"A magic gadget that can fly in the sky...?"
She seemed to have not expected Xiao Lin to say such a thing, and was stunned and speechless for a moment.
"I see."
On the contrary, it was Vanir who looked at Xiaolin and said, "You guys are going to Sky Island, right?"
"That's it."
According to Aqua's magic stone detector, the location of the next magic stone seems to be there.
Xiaolin asked: "So, do you have something that can get you there?"
“Hmm… poor shopkeeper, please take that out.” Vanir thought for a moment and said to Wiz.
"That? But isn't that a bit dangerous..."
Wiz seemed a little hesitant.
Hearing her say this, Xiaolin also became a little nervous.
Vanir waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing. It's okay if it's a little dangerous. I can just sell the remaining warehouse."
"...Your disturbing conversation was very loud."
Xiaolin complained like this.
Vanir smirked and said, "Hahaha, it's just a daily conversation between store employees, don't take it seriously."
No, no, no, how could I not care?
"Well, what I'm offering you this time is a flying vehicle from the future... It's the magical giant Vanir Mask!"
"No, no, no, it sounds suspicious, okay!"
Xiaolin became more and more uneasy.
Vanir said disdainfully: "Don't think too much. People who are suspicious have no future, okay?"
The most hateful thing is that after he said this, he raised the corner of his mouth in a vicious way.
"Alas, I am not a human but a devil! So it's only natural that I'm suspected! Hahahaha——"
This guy, I really want to punch him.
"Don't be so excited by yourself, but explain it to me."
"Then let me explain."
Vanir raised his finger and said with a smile, "This huge Vanir Mask is a new type of mount powered by magic. It runs faster than a horse and has the ability to fly. It's nothing. Anyway, no matter how far away from the destination, as long as there is a spot, it will be easy to get there."
"So, we can go to Sky Island now?"
"Of course. All of a sudden, a trip through the air! ... It's fun, isn't it?"
The more he talked, the more excited he became.
Honestly, I'm starting to get scared.
Aqua also said with doubt: "Is it true? I always feel that the words spoken by the devil have no credibility."
"The goddess with a twisted heart may not believe it, but I am a devil, so I will definitely keep my promise." Vanir said words that were very consistent with his identity.
"Hey, is there something wrong with the tone you use when talking to guests?"
Aqua looked very unhappy. She slammed the table and shouted, "Your current guest is a goddess, but a god!"
"A goddess is a goddess, but she is also a poor goddess!"
"What did you say!?"
"... Damn it, don't touch the merchandise! Won't they all be purified by you?!"
Vanir quickly went to stop the stupid goddess who wanted to purify all the goods into pure water.
Xiaolin pinched his chin and muttered, "A giant Vanir mask? To be honest, it's super suspicious."
"Hehehe, I won't force you, but do you have any other way to go?" Vanir looked at Liu Zi and said, "Although your puppet is very powerful, it still can't fly, right?"
"Well……"
"There are not many ways to get to Sky Island. If you have other good ideas, that's fine."
Barnil said so.
Xiao Lin thought about it and it seemed that there was really no other way. He sighed and said, "Yeah, there is really no other way. Let's use your method."
There's no other way, I've got to do this.
Darkness crossed her arms and said with a blushing face, “In the distant sky, with no way out… and then I was ordered to listen to me if you don’t want to die… ah!”
"Hehehe - how can a mount that can fly in the sky be operated by magic? If I can use it to release explosion magic in the air..."
Huihui also had a dreamy expression.
"But you won't give it to us for free, right?" Xiaolin looked at Vanir and said, "After all, you are a qualified businessman."
"Of course, I also want to do business. But don't worry, it's not that expensive. The rental fee is only one million Eris." Vanir said lightly.
"I see, that's what it is... Hey, it's too expensive!"
Xiao Lin was so frightened that he jumped up and down.
If I could buy it, it wouldn't be a big deal to spend a million Eris, but it's only for use once, just one use... If it's damaged, or if there's a malfunction, the compensation price will be very high.
"I said, can't you make it cheaper?"
"Hmm... It's not impossible, but there is a condition."
"What conditions?"
"Take me and the owner of the junk shop with you."
"Hmm? Bring you and Wiz along? Why?"
"Of course I want to go and see it."
Vanir said this as a matter of course.
Yes, now Kayaba Akihiko is building the floating city of Aincrad, and the sky city that Kobayashi and the others are going to is also in the sky. I think it will give them some inspiration.
"As for that useless shop owner, of course it's because she can use the teleportation skill."
“I see. Once you’ve been there once, you can use teleportation to go back and forth. But I can also use teleportation… Oh, so that Wiz can go there more often in the future, right?”
"Yes. Wouldn't it be convenient to be able to go up to the sky instantly afterwards?"
Barnier did not deny Kobayashi's speculation.
If you want to build a floating city, you will probably go up and check it out often. After all, they are all cities flying in the sky, so there must be something in common among them.
"How about it?"
Vanir said: "If you agree to my terms, I will give you a 10% discount on the giant Vanir mask. How about that?"
10% off?
Although Kobayashi was not happy that he and Wiz wanted to go up with him and let him spend money, he would have to pay the full price if he did not agree.
"I understand. I'll take you upstairs."
"Good decision! That's good. I commend you for your ability to make decisions, even though you are an adventurer of a low level."
"I want you to take care of it!"
This is Xiaolin's pain point.
He has always been committed to improving the level of the favor of "Earth Wrong", but he has been quite lazy about things like levels and has not taken it seriously to improve them.
"Then we will get ready now, and you can come directly to the outside of the city later." said the Bagnese people.
"I see."
Kobayashi nodded, and left Wiz's magic tool shop with his companions.
After coming out.
Huihui smiled and said, “This way, we have a way to go to heaven.”
"Yes, but is it really okay to ask Vanir for help?" Kobayashi scratched his head. He felt something was wrong and was vaguely uneasy.
Aqua said with deep disgust: "What the devil prepared is definitely not good stuff, I can be sure of that!"
“Don’t say that. Just providing a way to get to Sky Island is a big help.” Darkness felt that Vanir was trustworthy and said, “He is also a businessman. I believe that he can at least give you what you pay for.”
"Well...is there nothing we can do?"
Xiaolin sighed.
After a long time, the few people felt that it was about time and walked out of the city. They saw Vanir and Wiz tinkering with something there.
Xiao Lin shouted at him from a distance: "Hey, Vanir! Are you almost ready?"
"Oh, you adventurers who can never amount to anything. It's almost time here. I'm just about to call you." Vanir also greeted from afar.
Several people came over.
Aqua pointed at a large disc-like object on the ground and said, "Is this the mount you mentioned?"
"That's right! Take a new look at this, this is our giant Mask of Vanir!" Vanir introduced his mount very proudly.
This is a thing that looks like a frisbee, and is similar to a sweeping robot that has been magnified hundreds of times. There are parts similar to flamethrowers all around it, and on the front is a pattern of Barnil.
Huihui’s eyes sparkled as she said, “Is this the mount of the future…!”
She likes high-tech things the most.
After observing it for a while, Darkness said, “Well, it looks like a huge round table.”
"This thing can really fly in the sky, are you kidding me?" Aqua remained skeptical.
"I've already said that I won't lie!"
Vanir said, as if he was extremely tired after arguing with Aqua, "Forget it... Let's start preparing for takeoff. Hurry up and get on board. Did you see the middle seat belts? Everyone fasten them."
"Seat belt? Oh, is that it?"
Xiaolin fastened his seat belt.
Darkness blushed as she fastened it, “Mmm, the restraining feeling of this seat belt… just the feeling of tightening my body… mmmmmm!”
"You never disappoint me, man."
It’s great to understand, but you’re also feeling too good.
"Is everyone ready?" Vanir looked at them and said, "Then let's put in the power..."
He took out several bottles.
Xiao Lin was slightly stunned.
"Wait, what are those bottles? They look familiar to me."
"Of course it looks familiar. Isn't this the explosive potion I recommended you to buy before?"
"……what?"
Vanir threw all the bottles into the disc and said something surprising: "Come on, throw them all in and suck them into the inlet! Make sure the inlet is closed and inject magic power into it!"
He said something like what Xiaolin said when he was playing with his toys alone.
“Eh? Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing…!!”
“Huhahahaha——, and then light the fire!”
Barnier threw the torch into the entrance again, and the next second, a huge impact came from under him.
“Aaaaaaa——————”
“Ahhhhh——————”
“Wow wow wow wow————”
“Well… this kind of impact… this is my first time experiencing it… it’s great!”
I saw several of them rushing towards the sky quickly.
Kobayashi had never done a rocket before, but the impact was even stronger than the push on the back, and it made him stunned.
He never thought that he would be such a god!
Accompanied by the screams of Darkness, Aqua, and Megumin, and Vanir’s wild laughter, they arrived at a huge sky castle, and the mounts under them collapsed in an instant as if they had reached their limit.
"Wow————!"
Several people fell to the ground.
No wonder Vanir insisted on bringing Wiz along. This is just a disposable mount, and if he wants to return he can only rely on Wiz’s teleportation magic.
Xiao Lin rubbed his back and head, and shouted to his companions who were lying in all directions, "Everyone...are you all okay?"
"I, I'm still alive...still alive..."
Aqua has completely become demented.
She was so frightened by the sudden impact that she couldn't speak at all. She hugged Liu Zi's body tightly and refused to let go, while Liu Zi gently comforted her.
"Compared to my explosion magic, it's nothing..."
Hui Hui rubbed her sore bottom, her mouth still hard.
Darkness was still lying on the ground, thinking about it, mumbling, "First I was tied up without any explanation, then I was lifted into the air without any questions, and then I was thrown directly to the ground... I feel like this is getting addictive, Xiaolin."
“Darkness, wake up! This is not SAO. If you jump from such a high place, you will really be killed!”
Kobayashi shook Darkness's shoulders, telling her to stop being stupid, and at the same time, he reprimanded Vanir who was also shaking Wiz's shoulders in the distance.
"Hey, Vanir! What are you doing?!"
"I've already explained it before, the future mount."
"No matter how you look at it, it's the explosive potion that blows up the rocket!"
Xiaolin scolded him loudly.
"How rude." Vanir curled his lips and said a little aggrievedly: "It's only because of my rare magic power that I can control it properly in the air, right?"
"You're such a jerk!"
Xiao Lin was so angry that he jumped up and down.
Wiz also stood up dazedly, looked around and said, "Did we... make it to Sky Island safely?"
"Our assistance is foolproof! The chance of failure is almost negligible! And there won't be any negative reviews!" Vanir smiled confidently.
I see. It's the kind where you can't give a bad review even if you want to.
I really don't believe you anymore.
Then Vanir urged Wiz, saying, "Hurry up, poor store manager, land here quickly. We will be coming back and forth here frequently in the next period of time."
"Ah, okay!"
Wiz quickly recorded this place, and of course Xiaolin also recorded it as well, after all, he didn't know whether he would go back and forth often.
This sky city is very dilapidated. Almost every place is in tatters, and the walls are covered with moss.
It seems to be a scrapped sky city.
"——Forget it. Anyway, let's go in and explore first."
Kobayashi led Aqua and the others towards the main entrance of the ruins.
The magic stone they want might be here.
