Chapter 710: A Way to Fly
Chapter 710: A Way to Fly
"Deviator? What's that?"
Kanding's face was filled with confusion.
In the Dust Path World, wandering followers were considered minor troublemakers.
Only those stationed at the borders, like him, had a comprehensive grasp of various news and could react swiftly.
But now, the guest before him had mentioned a term he was utterly unfamiliar with.
Seeing this, Lindsey changed her approach, "You should know about Reanimated Corpses, right?"
"The concept is similar, but Deviators spread their power through plagues, infecting both the living and the dead, creating monsters akin to Reanimated Corpses."
Upon hearing this description, Kanding realized the magnitude of the threat, especially in the chaotic Dust Path World! He pondered carefully but couldn't recall the situation Lindsey had described, "I'm sorry, I haven't heard of it."
"To be more specific, there haven't been any similar incidents within hundreds of Floating Islands in the nearby area."
Lindsey sighed inwardly.
If Deviators were like those at the World Border, corrupting and infecting anything they touched, Lindsey wouldn't even need to seek information; her reconnaissance skills would be enough to track them down.
But now?
The current situation was like chasing a criminal who hadn't committed a crime yet, leaving them with no leads.
Lindsey frowned, while Alice shifted her attention to the journey itself.
The maiden asked Kanding, "Mr. Kanding, we plan to go to the City of Law. Apart from heading east, do you have any suggestions for our journey?"
Kanding's expression was one of astonishment.
It was only then that he truly realized the two before him were not lying.
Lindsey and Alice.
They genuinely intended to go to the heart of the world's conflict—the City of Law!
"..."
"You two, the Dust Path World is already dangerous enough. And you want to go to a place like the City of Law? I've heard that even Eighth Stage Awakeners might perish there. If you wish to survive..."
Kanding's advice was interrupted by Alice, "We must go there."
"..."
The Fifth Stage Awakener stared at the man and woman before her.
Despite the pleasant feast, Kanding wanted to persuade them to give up.
However, Lindsey and Alice's eyes conveyed a unified and unwavering determination—they were set on going!
"Alright, alright."
"I've given you all the advice I can. Since you're so determined, I'll tell you what I know."
"Due to the previous wars, several Floating Islands connecting the City of Law in the Eastern World have been completely shattered. There's nothing but emptiness for hundreds of kilometers, making it impossible to cross by normal means."
"However, there have always been people like you, and over the years, a few methods have emerged."
This answer was incredibly significant for Lindsey and Alice! If they hadn't stopped to gather information here but had continued their journey, they would have faced an insurmountable chasm upon reaching the Eastern World.
—Hundreds of kilometers.
Lindsey's blocks were perfectly spherical with a one-meter diameter.
Converting the distance, they would need hundreds of thousands of blocks to build a road! Even with confidence in her construction skills, believing they wouldn't break, such a quantity was no laughing matter!
Lindsey pressed on, "Can you elaborate on the past methods?"
Only then did Kanding continue, "I know of three methods."
"First, it's up to your abilities. If you can fly, you can safely reach your destination by flying all the way."
"The second method involves flying ships. Due to the structure of the Dust Path World, there was a demand for flight in most regions before the wars. Craftsmen also created some flying vessels for this world. Although many of these magical tools were damaged, some remain intact. As long as you can find these tools, you can naturally fly to your destination."
"The last method is also the most dangerous – Magical Beasts. Due to the constant wars in the Dust Path World, the magical beasts inhabiting various regions have become more ferocious and started occupying islands, forming their own factions. The leader of these flying magical beasts even possesses the strength of a Seventh Stage and has the ability to fly."
Kanding's voice grew weaker as he spoke.
The three methods he listed included an option that was absolutely impossible for Lindsey and Alice.
As for the second and third methods...
The challenge with the flying ships was finding them and then figuring out how to acquire them.
The magical beasts, on the other hand, presented a difficulty in terms of combat and taming.
Ordinary people facing such a dilemma would probably rely on luck, searching for flying ships on various floating islands.
But for Lindsey and Alice...
The flying magical beasts were, paradoxically, the most reliable option among the three because the Game Player's skills included the ability to tame beasts.
Lindsey and Alice exchanged a glance, and without saying a word, they reached a unanimous decision through their eyes.
The Righteous Lioness then asked, "Mr. Kanding, can you tell us where these flying magical beasts are located?"
Kanding's mouth dropped open in surprise. "You're not going to look for a flying ship? You're planning to provoke a Seventh Stage magical beast instead!"
Alice replied calmly, "A Seventh Stage magical beast is powerful enough, and its location must be certain."
"Rather than searching for a flying ship that may not even exist, it's better to have a clear goal, which suits our current situation more."
Kanding felt his head spin.
Just a moment ago, he had been drinking and chatting with Lindsey, feeling like they had become friends.
But after this conversation, he realized he couldn't quite see through these two individuals, their intentions, thoughts, or true strength.
Kanding responded, "The center, the world's center."
"Those powerful magical beasts require a rich environment to survive, so they can only be there."
"Mr. Kanding, thank you for your answer. This information is extremely helpful and crucial to us!"
At that moment, Lindsey stood up from his seat and took out more food from his bag, placing it on the table as a reward for the information.
Kanding's gaze was drawn to the food on the table, but after their recent conversation, he couldn't help but feel that the food, which should have been tempting, now seemed unappetizing.
"Lindsey!"
Suddenly, Alice's body erupted with a powerful surge of Essence.
The girl stood up, and this time, unlike her previous outburst of willpower, she activated her Righteous One's Technique, entering a true combat state!
"Look at the map!"
Lindsey immediately opened the map and saw several red dots approaching the floating island in a straight line from a distance.
"Malice? An attack? Let's go check it out."
Lindsey and Alice set off immediately, leaving Kanding alone in the tent.
The Fifth Stage Awakened, stunned, remained seated, staring at the departing figures, especially Alice's silhouette.
He muttered in a daze, "Righteous One... Righteous One..."
