Jing Kuang had been experimenting with this for a long time. They used jellyfish to fly the White Skeleton Dragon across the Rift Valley.
The initial experiment was very unsuccessful. Although jellyfish liked to fly together, so they could fly in pairs. However, it was difficult to control the direction of the jellyfish. They didn't know where the jellyfish would fly. They often flew high into the sky with the White Skeleton Dragon. So far, several soldiers had been injured.
So, Jing Kuang came up with all kinds of ideas. At first, he tried to put an 'armor' on the body of the empty jellyfish, because the empty jellyfish had many eyes. It had two in front and four on both sides of its body. Jing Kuang covered the eyes on both sides of its body and made the jellyfish only look in front.
At first, the jellyfish would only fly forward. However, after flying for a while, they began to try to get rid of the armor on their bodies. They would only continue flying after they got rid of the armor.
Jing Kuang tried many other methods. For example, it tied the jellyfish and the White Skeleton Dragon to a slingshot to see if they could land safely. It also tried to tie food to the jellyfish's head to lure it forward.
However, the jellyfish were too unpredictable. When Jing Kuang and the others first flew into the land on the giant jellyfish, it was because the jellyfish wanted to fly there. It was a complete gamble.
After countless tests and a large group of soldiers were injured, Jing Kuang finally found a method that could be used normally. That was …
"Now, the perfect plan has finally appeared!" Jing Kuang stood in front of the gate of the palace. In front of it were not only a large number of White Skeleton Dragons, but also a special object. It was a huge hanging basket.
This hanging basket was smaller than the one they had been on before. Above the hanging basket, there was a thin semi-circular object that was much larger than the hanging basket. The 'airbag' was made of a special kind of seaweed. Although it looked thin, it was very tough. Most importantly, it was completely airtight.
A large number of jellyfish were placed in the 'airbag.' However, there were always gaps between the jellyfish. The space they took up was not complete. Therefore, when a large number of small jellyfish were piled together, the buoyancy produced was not as good as that of a large jellyfish.
But Jing Kuang found something special. When the jellyfish ate, they produced gas in their bodies to help them float in the air. Sometimes, they produced too much gas. They emit the excess. So you just have to feed them. After that, they would be trapped in the air bag, and they would release gas inside. Then, the air bag would slowly expand. Then, just like now, he could carry a lot of weight …
Moreover, the empty jellyfish inside would enter a state of deep sleep due to the lack of oxygen. They would not struggle to escape from inside, so there was no need to worry about them affecting the progress of the gondola.
As for how the basket would move? Then, he would have to rely on the White Skeleton Dragon sitting inside.
According to the way the fish swam, Jing Kuang added fins made of bones and seaweed leaves on both sides of the basket. The fins could be controlled by the White Skeleton Dragon sitting in the basket. The fins could move up and down in order to move the air like moving water.
At the back of the basket, a large tail fin was added, which could be used to control the direction and assist in the movement.
In addition to the main air bag, which contained a large number of empty jellyfish, there were also two auxiliary air bags attached to the basket. When they were about to land, they would release the air bags, and the whole thing would slowly descend.
The two air bags were tied with long ropes. After landing on the ground, the jellyfish could fix the air bags and pull them back.
This thing seemed to be quite good. Lin was surprised that Jing Kuang could make something like this. It must have come up with this idea after looking at the original gondola and observing the movements of the fish.
"You guys go up!"
Under Jing Kuang's command, a few White Skeleton Dragons immediately went up to the gondola. Four of them were responsible for controlling the fins on both sides of the gondola, and one was responsible for moving the gondola with its tail fin.
They released the ropes on the ground, and the gondola slowly flew up. At this time, the White Skeleton Dragons started to move their fins, and the whole gondola slowly moved forward …
But the speed was very slow … But this also meant that it was a success! Jing Kuang watched as the gondola slowly rose up, and its eyes revealed a sense of hope and enthusiasm.
The surrounding White Skeleton Dragons also cheered when they saw this. It seemed that the experiment this time had finally … succeeded!
For Jing Kuang, this gondola was not only a vehicle that could carry the White Skeleton Dragons into the Rift Valley, but also a weapon that could be used in battle.
It obviously still remembered … the scene in Scorpion City when the Emerald Dragons rode on the viper dragons and burned the entire city. If its future opponents were to have an air force, it must be prepared to have a strong air force.
However, Lin felt that this gondola might encounter a lot of problems, and it was quite inflexible. The White Skeleton Dragons had been paddling for a long time, but they still had not flown out of the castle.
Obviously, it had more problems to deal with, and if it rose too high, its structure would also cause some problems. But if it was not used in battle, they now had the ability to fly across the Rift Valley.
While Lin was observing them, she also received a message from the brain worm.
The brain worm stood in front of the gondola and said to Lin, "Report, that stupid creature said that it wants to dig a hole."
"Dig a hole?" Lin asked, "Does it understand your language?"
"Yes, but only a little. It's not comprehensive. Its sentences are not smooth, and its pronunciation is clumsy." The brain worm said, "In the first stage of interrogation, it is silent. In the second stage of interrogation, it is in pain. In the third stage, it told me its goal and interrogation method. Send out brainwaves, suppress its thoughts, and give me an answer if it is difficult to bear."
"Goal: Obtain the brain, dig a hole in the crystal forest and bury it. Then, it will not say anything. It doesn't know what the answer is either. It just has this feeling in its mind, and it wants to do it."
… Did it mean that it wanted to obtain the brain in Jing Kuang's crystal, then dig a hole in the crystal forest and bury it? It felt really strange.
Because the brain was originally there, and it was dug out by Standing Scorpion later.
Thinking about this, Lin continued to ask, "Do you know why it understands your language?"
"I don't." the brain worm said, "Maybe we have met before, so I want to flatten it."
Sure enough, they had some kind of relationship … Then, if it buried the brain there, would something special happen?
"Do you know where to bury it?"
"The exact location, next to the 27th tree."
