A long time ago, there were some craftsmen who had come up with similar ideas. However, there was no wind tunnel in this world and no one had studied the mechanics of gases. Even though humans still yearned for the sky and wanted to fly side by side with the sun, they needed to practice magic instead of engineering. For that reason, the idea of this kind of thing had been stuck at the level of an idea.
It was only after the exchange of memories between the Engineer and Baiyi that he found out about airplanes that he decided to design a magical plane. Before that, he spent a long time in the Void pondering over his design. It was only when he met Mia that his true nature was revealed and he turned into a gentleman. Before that, he could actually be called a scientist.
That was why when he saw Baiyi taking out his design and putting it into practice, he was extremely excited. With a slightly trembling voice, he said, "Sir Hope! You're really my soulmate! Not only are you planning to implement my design, you've even helped me find an investor! I'm so grateful! When I get out of here, I'll give you half of the patent rights of this plane! "
I don't need the patent rights. Just don't talk like a gentleman in the future, Baiyi thought to himself. Baiyi mumbled to himself as he began to explain the general principles of the magical plane to Undine. The plane that he had just shown her could only be regarded as a simplified version of the Engineer's original design. A lot of complicated magical propulsion systems had been removed, leaving only the gliding function and the navigation function.
That way, the glider would be easier to use. All he needed to do was to set up a guiding formation on the body of the glider and set up another guiding formation at the destination. With that, the glider would be able to glide to the destination with the guidance of the formation, forming a simple air transportation route.
Unfortunately, the guiding formation had a certain distance limitation. Even if Baiyi had chosen the shortest route, he still needed a transit point. He could not directly cross the Northern Wasteland.
For that reason, an obedient tribe was very important. When the time came, the Dole family would only need to set up a group of people at the starting point in the Eol Mountains, the transit point in the Steppe and the final destination in the Northern Kingdom to receive and receive the goods. Not only would they be able to cross the dangerous Eol Mountains, they would also be able to fly across the complicated Steppe and even the Silent Forest. No matter how one looked at it, it was much safer than leading a caravan and a large group of people on a risky journey.
Other than that, Baiyi also had a series of ideas on how to build a large airship, a magical carrier, and so on. However, the glider was the cheapest, easiest to build, the most stealthy, and the easiest to control.
"Another thing that we need to pay attention to is not to fly during bad weather. Also, try to fly at night so that we can avoid being noticed by other people and also avoid being attacked by the birds of prey in the Silent Forest. Also, the load capacity of each glider is limited so we can't transport too many things at one time," Baiyi added in the last sentence.
Before this, Undine was still maintaining her elegant sideways sitting posture but after listening to Baiyi's explanation, she could no longer sit still. Sitting straight down on the ground, she lowered her head and began to ponder. She did not notice that her skirt was so short that it would reveal a lot of her private parts. It was Tisdale who was beside her who helped to cover it up for her.
After pondering for a long time, she asked, "Master Hope, can this thing called a glider really be built? Can it really be built like what you described? "
Obviously, she was tempted by the idea. If what Baiyi said was true, then the Dole family would only need to hire a group of people to guard the glider. Be it from the perspective of cost or safety, it would be much better than hiring a mercenary group to lead a caravan across the Wasteland. How could she not be tempted by it?
"When I get back, I'll try to build a prototype for you guys to see. That will be more convincing than any words, right?" Baiyi continued to say.
"Understood, Master Hope. If this tool is really successful, I-I really don't know how to thank you enough... No, no, it's the Dole family that doesn't know how to thank you enough. You've saved our family. Such kindness, I..." Undine took a good look at Baiyi. She really did not know how to organize her words to express her feelings. Even if it was just an empty promise, Baiyi's favorability in her heart had easily surpassed his other identity.
What a shame that I can't get you to marry me … Baiyi lamented in his heart. If only I could have a beauty as beautiful as Undine, then it would be totally worth the price of the ticket.
Seeing that her family could be saved, Undine no longer cared about the identity of Baiyi and Sven. She did not even care about the grudge between her and Attie anymore. In the face of the fate of her family, her personal gains and losses could be put aside for the time being. If the air trade route could really be built, it was not impossible for her to let Attie go.
As Undine softened her stance, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a lot more relaxed. The rest of the people started to ask Baiyi about the details of the glider. Even Mia grabbed Baiyi's hand and asked him if she could sit on the glider.
Do you really want me to send you to the plane personally? Baiyi thought in his heart. This little girl has too many ideas. I'm a sorcerer after all. Why can't I just practice flying?
Only Attie's thoughts were more complicated at that moment. She understood Baiyi's thoughts and approved of the plan even more than Undine. She also believed that if the air trade route really needed the help of her tribe, the lives of her people would definitely be better. At least, they would not have to worry about things like salt and sugar which were very precious in the Steppe anymore.
However, while she was relieved for her people, she became even more vigilant towards Baiyi. This devil's wisdom was beyond her imagination. He actually came up with such a wonderful plan … Can I really defeat him? Attie began to doubt herself. Her gaze could not help but fall on Mia who was standing beside Baiyi.
She had been following Baiyi all the way here and she had been paying attention to her surroundings. She realized that the cute girl who was shorter than her seemed to be deeply trusted by the devil. For that reason, she paid more attention to Mia.
She was indeed beautiful. She would definitely become a great beauty in the future, much better than herself. No wonder the devil would spoil her so much … Attie had to admit that Mia had an advantage over her in terms of appearance. She looked very innocent and kind and it was not a pretense. She even knew how to act coquettishly … Did this mean that the devil liked this type of girl? Attie continued to ponder. Looking down at her chest which was almost the same size as Mia's, she could not help but let out a sigh of relief. At least in this aspect, she was the same as Mia.
But her skin was so white, like goat milk, while her skin was dark and swarthy. Her hair was also a beautiful black, unlike her strange white hair. The doll in her arms was so cute that she wanted to hug it … Attie continued to let her imagination run wild. She made a decision in her heart. Perhaps, she could deceive the little girl and slowly get closer to the devil.
Suddenly, a deep male voice rang in her ears, "Don't think too much. You'll live a tiring life if you keep thinking like this."
Startled, Attie quickly turned her head around and saw Huskar's colorful face. She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she did not even notice Huskar approaching her.
"Brother Hope is a good man. The ancestors have also acknowledged him. Just follow him and be his woman. He will not mistreat you," Huskar continued to say.
"I-I'm just a maid!" Attie quickly defended herself. Although both she and Huskar had a similar understanding of the concept of a maid, she still had to defend herself.
Huskar, on the other hand, had a noncommittal look on his face. Without another word, he turned around and left.
Just like that, the rescue team successfully completed their mission. With their hearts filled with longing for the air trade route, they embarked on their return journey, leaving the prairie that was about to set off a storm of blood.
Without a doubt, Baiyi was the biggest winner of this trip. Putting aside the impact on the prairie, not only did he gain a body of brute strength that was given to him by the ancestors, he also gained the friendship of the Divine Warriors. Not only that, he also snatched the War God's Sword and a kitten-like Attie. Not only that, he could also gain a generous reward and solid trust from the Dole family.
It could be said that he had earned a lot from this trip. It seemed like his decision to go out was indeed the right one.
After the Divine Warriors entered the Eol Mountains, they parted ways with each other. Both of them exchanged a few words before Zar'Zar said, "If there's a chance in the future, I'd really like to visit your place."
"Then I'll prepare the best food and the strongest wine to entertain you," Baiyi said with a smile. He really liked this group of simple and honest Alpine Barbarians.
For the rest of the journey back, there was no need to say too much. Although the journey was very slow because they were carrying Zhang San, the injured man, there was no danger along the way. Undine was the only one who seemed to be in a hurry. She could not wait for Baiyi to place the glider in front of her immediately.
By the time the group slowly walked through the mountain road back to the Southern Gate Fortress and got into the carriage, Attie looked at Baiyi who was still wearing his armor. Puzzled, she asked Mia who was beside her, "Why is Master still wearing his armor even when we're in a safe place?"
The two of them had interacted with each other on the way back. With Mia's innate talent of showing kindness to anyone, she quickly gained Attie's trust. She did not really treat Attie as a maid but instead, she treated her as her new little sister. She even generously let her hug her hammerhead shark plushie.
Faced with Attie's strange question, Mia replied casually, "Because Mr. Hope is a Soul Armature. The armor is his body."
