"Pull me back! Pull me back! "
Seeing the approaching Rolling Thunder, the dragons who were picking up shells in the sea of clouds ran toward the ship in fright. They no longer cared about the shells in their hands and desperately tried to climb onto the ship.
In the process of squeezing, some dragons fell from the sky. Most of them were not tied up with ropes, and only a few dragons managed to climb to the edge of the ship, but …
Boom!
A thunderous sound suddenly exploded beside the ship. Most of the white skeletal dragons screamed and fled to the other side of the ship. The ship had slowly returned to normal, but because of their actions, the ship began to tilt to the other side.
A large number of white skeletal dragons squeezed to the right side of the ship. Because of the tilting of the ship, some dragons who were clinging to the left guardrail could not stabilize themselves and fell from above, while others jumped back into the sea of clouds.
But in the panic of the white skeletal dragons, the entire sea of clouds seemed to be unable to withstand their trampling and began to split apart. Most of the dragons above fell from the sea of clouds, leaving only the white skeletal dragons who were still tied up with ropes hanging below the ship.
Of course, the dragons on the ship did not have time to care about them.
"Attack quickly! Attack! Caw! "
Other than the spy, only the captain was still holding on to the guardrail on the left side of the ship. He pulled out a crossbow from his waist and tried to shoot at the Rolling Thunder in the sky.
But Lin was more concerned about this creature called Rolling Thunder.
Its attack method was so strange that Lin felt that it was not attacking. It could make a very loud sound, but it did not seem to cause any specific damage.
But it was enough to scare the white skeletal dragons into running for their lives. The ship was tilting to the right too much, and if this continued …
Hum …
The tilting suddenly stopped. This was the sound of the ship starting up.
It seemed that the controller in the cabin had finally realized what had happened. Following the sound of the ship starting up. The ship slowly stabilized and began to return to its original state.
"Caw …" The dragons on the ship finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now, a few of the dragons had reacted. They picked up their crossbows and ran to the left side of the ship with the captain to shoot at Rolling Thunder.
Whoosh! One of the arrows hit Rolling Thunder, and it suddenly made a loud sound like an explosion. Then, it turned around and flew into the distance …
"Caw! We drove it away! "The White Skeleton Dragons cheered when they saw Rolling Thunder leave.
The other White Skeleton Dragons on the ship also looked relieved …
The disaster this time. It seemed that it was finally over. After that, they pulled up the White Skeleton Dragons that were hanging under the ship. Although there were still many dragons looking for their shells, the sea of clouds had already broken into several pieces and floated far away.
"You idiots!"
On the ship, the captain shouted at all the skeletal dragons, "You should have seen and practiced before you boarded the ship. You can't all squeeze in one direction. Why don't you all know this? The boat almost capsized! "
"…" The white Skeleton Dragons lowered their heads and remained silent, as if they had realized their mistake.
In fact. Lin felt that if this happened again, they would all rush over to take the shells. This was because even if they only found one piece, it would be enough for them to live comfortably for more than ten years. Jing Kuang's shell was such a precious item that many dragons would never have the chance to see even one piece in their lifetime.
The rarity of Jing Kuang's shell was also related to the habits of this kind of shellfish. They could not reproduce when they were reared, and could only be found by chance in very dangerous places …
"And those dragons operating the ship below, what's wrong with them? Why did they take so long to realize that we should start the ship? Even if they were sleeping, they should have woken up by now with all the noise above! "
Boom … As the captain spoke, a sound suddenly came from the ship, and the entire ship stopped moving again …
"What's going on? Why did it stop again? "The captain asked in confusion." You, you, and you, go down and check! "
"Caw!" The few White Skeleton Dragons beside the captain quickly ran to the entrance of the cabin and ran in to check.
"Now, give the creator's judgment to those dragons who were pushing and shoving!" The captain continued, "Don't think that nothing happened! I know which dragons caused this accident! Guards, arrest those dragons with their shells! "
"Caw! You can't do this! What does this have to do with us, caw! "
The guards ignored the struggles of the White Skeleton Dragons and arrested a total of three dragons with their shells.
"It's not your fault that you got the shells, but it's your fault that you shouted after getting the shells and attracted other dragons to squeeze over. These dragons will be judged by their creators! I'll confiscate their shells for the time being, and when we get back, we'll offer them as a sacrifice to their creators. Caw, push them down! "
Under the captain's orders, the three White Skeleton Dragons were stripped of all their equipment and belongings and forced to the edge of the ship. All the surrounding dragons watched this scene nervously, and some dragons looked at the captain with suspicious expressions.
But none of them dared to say anything.
"Captain!"
Just as they were about to start, a voice suddenly sounded.
It was the White Skeleton Dragons who went to check the cabin earlier. They said to the captain in a panic, "Caw! Captain! There's a big problem down there! "
"A big problem?" The captain was stunned. "What's the problem?"
"You have to come and take a look!"
"Caw … Forget it, we'll start the punishment later! I'll go take a look first. " With that, the captain led a few guards into the cabin, and the spy followed them in …
"Caw … What's going on?"
After walking into the control room in the cabin, the captain and the surrounding dragons were stunned. There was not a single dragon here, only some joysticks swaying slowly.
"Where did the dragons go?" The captain asked the few dragons who came to check before.
"It was like this when we came here," said one of the dragons. "Those dragons seem to have disappeared …"
"Caw?" The captain was shocked. "Then what's going on here? You guys, hurry up and stop it. "
"Caw!" A few guards walked over, grabbed the swaying joysticks, and pressed them down forcefully …
These joysticks were mainly used to control the direction of the propellers, so it was not strange for them to occasionally sway in the air. The strange thing was that there were dragons here.
"Why are they gone? They should still be operating just now. " The captain watched as the guards fixed the joysticks and said, "They should still be operating here just now. Hurry up and find them."
"Caw!" The guards quickly ran out, and the dragons who checked just now said to the captain, "About this, in fact, when we were eating last night, the dragons in the control room didn't come out …"
"Caw? That's impossible! "The captain said," They were still operating here just now! "
"But …" The dragon who checked said, "We haven't seen them since last night. There was no response when we shouted at the door. Something must have happened then."
"It's impossible for something so strange to happen," the captain said. The captain said, "We'll ask them when we find them. We're in the sky. They can't hide anywhere."
After that, the captain and a few skeleton dragons left this place, leaving only the spy in the room.
Something strange had happened here. If they checked the smell here, they would be able to find something …
The dragons in the control room had indeed left last night.
But what was interesting was that there were no traces left on the ground, nor were there any bloodstains. There was only a strange smell in the air. The smell was quite thin, and it was difficult to detect if one did not pay close attention.
Lin felt that they might have been attacked by some kind of creature, and it started a long time ago. It used some method to make the skeleton dragons here 'disappear', then left this place without leaving a trace.
There should be some kind of creature that could cause this situation. Lin did not know much about atmospheric creatures, and there were many round windows on the ship, which might have allowed these creatures to invade …
But the question was, who was operating the ship when it was about to capsize? Was it the Hierarch?
The Hierarch could indeed control the ship from the academy, but Lin felt that he did not do so. The spy did not sense any signal before … Or was it that creature?
Could it be that they had high intelligence? Although it seemed easy to pull the joysticks, it still required a certain amount of skill to stabilize a ship that had almost capsized.
In short, they would observe for a while, because Lin felt that the creature would come out again.
…
"Caw! Not found! " The guard who was searching met up with the captain, and the first thing the guard said to the captain was, "We don't have the dragons in the control room."
"Caw? Have you searched everywhere? "The captain had a look of disbelief on his face.
"Yes, although this ship is big, there are not many rooms. We've searched everywhere, but we can't find any trace of them …"
"Did they jump off?" The captain said, "I don't know why they went crazy. Anyway, we need a new operator to control the ship."
… It seemed that the captain did not care much about this matter. After that, he continued to execute the dragons and took their shells.
Compared to the disappearance of the dragons, the captain was obviously more concerned about the shells in his hands. Now, these shells all belonged to him …
At the same time, the captain found a few new operators to continue driving the ship. The journey through the dark sea of clouds continued, and the skeleton dragons soon forgot what happened before.
However, they still remembered their lesson. This group of skeleton dragons was much more orderly, and they believed that the rest of the journey would be easier.
It was not until White Skeleton Dragons started to go missing on the ship that they started to panic again … Astronomy was the only thing they could think of.
