"To sum up, what we have to do now is to build a chariot."
After reading the clues left by Golden King, Wang Lu quickly gathered his teammates and shared his judgment.
No one would doubt Wang Lu's judgment. Since he dared to assert that the chariot was the key to break through the cloud blockade, then it should not be wrong. And when Aya and the others saw the mural above the gate, they even more agreed with Wang Lu's conclusion.
"But, can you build a chariot?" Aya asked, "As far as I know, although you've learned a lot in Spirit Sword Mountain, you haven't had the time to dabble in the chariot refining."
Wang Lu said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to know my progress so well. You're right, although I've begun to learn the path of tool refining, I haven't even had the time to start on the chariot manufacturing, which is a high order branch subject. Therefore, it's impossible to build a luxury car like Golden King. "
After a pause, Wang Lu said, "However, I can still build a simple chariot."
"Simple? According to the description of Golden King's mural, there are dangers everywhere in the sea of clouds, and the chariot can be said to be our only shelter. Wouldn't it be too dangerous to build a simple chariot? " Aya said, "It's better to be safe. Although I haven't systematically studied the manufacturing of a chariot, I've been on the battlefield for a long time, so I have some understanding of it. If the two of us cooperate, we can try to build a powerful chariot. In any case, the resources in this castle are almost infinite, so we can try as much as we want. With your talent, even if you start from scratch, it's still not too late. "
Wang Lu shook his head and said with a smile, "Aya, you think too highly of me. The chariot is broad and profound. In the absence of guidance, if we rely on self-study and exploration, it would take at least three to five years to build a chariot with five pairs of load-bearing wheels. But how can we have three to five years? "
With that, Wang Lu's expression gradually became serious. "In fact, we probably don't even have three to five days. This is a race game, and there are two conditions for winning. One is to try to be faster than the other, and the other is to try to make the other party slower than you. With our conditions, there is only the first way to go, but for Holy Light Religion, they are likely to choose the second way. As long as they use the fastest speed to build a simple chariot to break into the sea of clouds and try to eliminate us, it will be a great success. There is no need to waste time competing with the sea of clouds. "
Aya was startled when she heard this, but her eyes immediately calmed down. "I didn't think of this, but if we don't even have three to five days … what should we do?"
"It's very simple. We have to be faster than them. If they take three to five days to build a simple war chariot, we will take six to ten hours!"
"Six to ten hours …." Aya was surprised. Not to mention building a war chariot, even drawing a war chariot would be difficult!
Wang Lu said confidently, "Don't worry, I have a special manufacturing technique. Didn't I say that I can't make complicated ones, but I can make simple ones? Leave the rest to me. "
"Simple …" An ominous premonition rose in Aya's heart. Simple war chariot, how simple was it?
However, no matter how arrogant Wang Lu was, he wouldn't treat everyone's lives as a joke. Right now, they could only trust him.

Half an hour later, Wang Lu successfully built his first war chariot.
"Hahaha, my number one war chariot is fresh out of the oven!"
When Wang Lu came out of a room that stored a large amount of metal, his hearty laughter filled every corner of the hall.
Aya and the others who stayed behind in the hall were surprised. "So fast?"
Although they already knew that Wang Lu was a person who was good at creating miracles, this time, he still stunned them. In just half an hour, he built a war chariot, which was somewhat beyond their imagination.
"Senior Brother is so awesome!" Liu Li clapped her hands in excitement as if she had created a miracle. "Where is the war chariot? Liu Li wants to see it!"
Wang Lu waved his hand sideways, revealing something behind him, and then said with a hearty smile, "Look, it's here!"
Liu Li's eyes widened. After looking at it again and again, she inconceivably pointed at the thing behind Wang Lu and tremblingly asked, "Don't tell me, that's … Senior Brother's war chariot?"
Wang Lu nodded. "Yes, this is the 'Everlasting' war chariot that I personally forged and decorated after gathering a large amount of gold and mithril. Doesn't it look very mighty and majestic that you can't look straight at it?"
"Can't look straight at it … is it? It's indeed hard to look straight at it. " Aya swallowed with difficulty. Her eyes were also wide open, revealing a look of disbelief. "Is that a war chariot? How could there be such a war chariot in this world! It only has two wheels! "
Wang Lu smiled and reached out to stroke his beloved war chariot. "After all, it's a simple version. Compared to the big guy with five pairs of load-bearing wheels, it's certainly a lot simpler, so it's normal to have fewer wheels. Moreover, are two-wheeled war chariots rare? Many armies use two-wheeled war chariots to fight. "
Aya anxiously said, "That's because there's a mount pulling the chariot! Moreover, the two wheels of the two-wheeled war chariot are coaxial. Your two wheels, one in front and one in the back, are connected by … by a chain. Moreover, looking at the structure, it's clearly human-powered! "
Wang Lu proudly smiled. "Yes, it doesn't need animal power. As long as the pedals are pushed, the chain can drive the wheels to roll forward. It's very convenient and fast. Therefore, this war chariot has another name, bicycle …"
"Are you going to break through the sea of clouds with this meat wrapped iron thing? Are you crazy? "
Wang Lu's smile gradually faded. "I'm crazy? It's just that your mind can't keep up. The rules here limit that we must take a war chariot to leave the castle and enter the sea of clouds, but there's no rule on what kind of war chariot it is, right? "
"But you're too far-fetched … Such a simple war chariot, what if we encounter danger?"
Wang Lu picked up his smile again. "Encounter danger? Have you forgotten my profession? I'm the strongest meat shield. Compared to meat wrapped in iron, meat wrapped in iron is stronger! "
"You …" Aya felt that no matter how reasonable she was when talking to Wang Lu, she would be at a loss for words after two or three sentences, so she couldn't say much. She changed the topic and asked, "But your … war chariot only has one seat, and we have five people here."
Wang Lu said, "What's so difficult about that? Just stack it up."
"Stack it up!?"
"That's right, later I'll be in charge of riding … driving the war chariot. You'll ride on my neck, then spread your arms and let Liuli and Little White sit on either side. The stupid dog will sit in the basket in front of me. Isn't that enough? "
Aya imagined the scene in her mind and wanted to vomit blood. "Don't even think about making me perform that kind of ugly performance!"
"How is that ugly performance? That's the world's number three acrobatic performance …" Wang Lu said, but he also knew that it was difficult for Aya to accept the world's number three acrobatic performance, so he didn't force her. He pushed the Everlasting war chariot and walked out alone.
"Of course, since this war chariot hasn't been tested in actual combat, I won't force you to fight with me. I'll go out alone to test the performance of the war chariot. At the same time, I'll try to verify my conjecture. "
Seeing that Wang Lu had made up his mind, although Aya was quite against it in her heart, she didn't say anything. She just silently stood by the door, deciding that if Wang Lu encountered any danger, she would go to his rescue at the first moment.
The door to the castle's exit was slowly pushed open, revealing the endless confusion behind the door. Wang Lu elegantly boarded the war chariot and quickly drove behind the door. Aya guarded by the door, her whole body on guard. However, just as Wang Lu's figure disappeared into the sea of clouds, Aya completely lost contact with him!
"What!?" Aya was startled. She immediately guessed that there was a special law in the sea of clouds that isolated perception. Wang Lu shouldn't have gone far, but the woman couldn't help but worry.
This place was filled with strange rules. When a person was alone, they couldn't leave the castle, but as long as they rode the strange war chariot, they would be unimpeded. The person who built this ancient castle back then must have had a really wicked sense of humor. There shouldn't be any problems for Wang Lu to explore it …
— —
"… It really is a strange place."
On the other side, riding his beloved Everlasting war chariot, Wang Lu was slowly advancing through the sea of clouds.
Although looking out from the castle, the clouds and mist obscured one's vision. However, once one entered the clouds and mist, one would discover that there was actually a different world. The thick clouds and mist were actually just a layer of veil that obstructed one's vision. Once one broke through it, the view behind would suddenly become clear.
Wang Lu was traveling through a wide canyon. On both sides were picturesque mountains and rivers, with birds chirping and fragrant flowers. It was a beautiful scenery. The sun hung high above his head, and there weren't any clouds for thousands of miles. Let alone a churning sea of clouds, there wasn't even a single cloud.
However, not long after riding along the canyon, the air suddenly became heavy and stagnant, making it difficult to breathe. The binding force from the earth suddenly increased several times, firmly attracting Wang Lu and his war chariot. The wheels made of cork sank deeper into the ground.
Wang Lu hesitated for a moment and then decided to continue to move forward. However, as he continued to go deeper, the resistance rapidly increased. Before long, the restraint from the earth had been a hundred times stronger than before. It was tantamount to Wang Lu carrying a hundred Everlasting self-propelled vehicles and a hundred strong young men.
This was naturally not a burden for Wang Lu, whose physique had already surpassed that of a King Pill cultivator. But … for the war chariot beneath him, it was unbearable. With a creaking sound, the wheels of the Everlasting war chariot collapsed.
At the same time, Wang Lu felt his vision blur, and he reappeared in the gloomy castle.
Aya and the others asked with concern, "Senior Brother Wang Lu, are you okay?"
Wang Lu nodded, signaling everyone to be at ease. He then looked down at the wreckage of the Everlasting war chariot that had been distorted by the great gravity, and said with regret, "The Everlasting is broken …"
"However, this exploration has accumulated valuable experience, and the sacrifice of the Everlasting is valuable. The next step is gradually becoming clear. "
As Wang Lu spoke, he resolutely walked into the room where the resources were stored and began a new round of forging.
