Chapter 80: Magic Airship
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In order to go to the Blue Jade Mystic Realm of Trial, not only did he have to ride a horse, he also had to take a magic airship to get there. It would require three days for the entire journey. However, Ron had set off five days earlier and set aside two days to deal with emergencies. If there were any problems along the way, he would have ample time to react and would not be late and delay his first opportunity to enter the Blue Jade Mystic Realm. However, it did not matter even if he was late because the entrance to the mystic realm would remain open once it was opened. During the period of time, he could enter any time, but being the earliest to enter would definitely allow him to find some better stuff. Ron did not want to miss this opportunity.
After riding for two days, Ron arrived at Wind Snow City. This was the largest city in the vicinity, one that Winterfrost could not compare with. The reason why this city was so large was because it was the transportation hub of this area. It provided easy access in all directions, and was densely packed with people. Goods had to pass through this city. The advantage of transportation had completely driven this city. Ron had come here also to take the magic airship here to go to the Blue Jade Mystic Realm.
At this moment, Ron and Karuman had already arrived at Wind Snow City. Karuman followed behind Ron holding his horse like an ordinary servant. No one would have thought that this old man, who looked like an ordinary servant, was actually a level-4 Great Archmage.
“Is this Wind Snow City? It’s huge,” said Ron as he looked at the tall walls of Wind Snow City and the huge city gate, which was at least twice the size of Winterfrost’s gate.
In fact, their family also had a store in Wind Snow City, the soap store. Currently, their soap business had already flourished throughout half of the Northern Empire. Wind Snow City was a very important transit hub for goods. However, Ron did not use the business route this time. His participation in the Blue Jade Mystic Realm trial was a secret, and only a very small number of people knew about it.
The two of them entered Wind Snow City uneventfully. Inside, it was even more prosperous and lively. However, Ron was not blinded by the bustle. Instead, he headed directly for the ferry point. Although it was called a ferry point, it was actually more like an airport on earth. It was just that the magic airships here all take off and land vertically, so there was no need for a runway.
After the two of them had deposited the horses, they went to the ferry point. Immediately, Ron was shocked again by the various sizes of magic airships, large and small. There were at least a thousand magic airships parked here. Some of the huge magic airships were dozens of meters tall and more than a hundred meters long. They were as large as hills and could hold at least 10,000 people. However, Karuman had told him that it was far more than that because the space in some of the magic airships would be transformed by Spatial Magical Power. In this way, the size of the space inside would be enormous, completely exceeding what they looked like from the outside. Ron could not help becoming speechless when he heard this. Currently, they were already huge, if coupled with transformation by the Spatial Magical Power, how many people would they hold this time?
Such huge magic airships were still in the minority. There were more medium and small magic airships, neatly arranged together; they looked very spectacular. It was not just these magic airships; what shocked Ron was the huge number of Magi here. The people waiting to board the magic airships were basically all Magi. After all, it was not cheap to board a magic airship; ordinary people could not afford it at all. Only Magi had this level of consumption.
“Give way, give way!”
At this moment, some clear voices could be heard suddenly, and a passageway was quickly separated from the crowd. Ron and Karuman were also pushed to the sides involuntarily. Ron looked over curiously and saw a group of people obviously in the uniform of the government officials opening the path in front. Behind them, a young man with blond hair of around 20 years old walked over. Behind him were several people who were obviously bodyguards. When he saw the few bodyguards, Ron was stunned. These few bodyguards were actually all at the full level of the Great Mage realm. There was even an old man. He could not see the other party’s strength, which meant that the other party was most likely at the Great Archmage realm.
“Damn, such pomp. Who is this young man?”
“No way, you don’t even know this person? This is the Young Master of the City Lord of our Wind Snow City. He is a true genius of our Wind Snow City. He is only 20 years old, yet he has already reached the realm of a level-10 Great Mage. You don’t even know this. You shouldn’t be from our Wind Snow City, right?”
“Hehe, I was just passing by. What is he going to do?”
“To participate in the Blue Jade Mystic Realm trial, of course.”
“This… I know this. I heard that there are many people participating in the Blue Jade Mystic Realm trial this time. Even the Holy Land’s disciples have come to participate.”
“Damn, disciples from the Holy Land? What are they doing here? We already have a lot of people from the Northern Empire. With them, the quota is even more tight.”
“Sigh, why should we worry about this? People like us will not get the chance to participate in the mystic realm.”
Listening to the discussions around him, Ron quickly learned the identity of the young man. He was actually the son of the City Lord of Wind Snow City, and like him, he was also going to participate in the Blue Jade Trial. He might even meet him later.
As the City Lord’s son was seen boarding a luxurious magic airship, order was restored to the entire ferry point. Ron looked away from the luxurious airship and said to Karuman, “Uncle Karuman, let’s go too.” Then, they walked toward an ordinary small magic airship.
Karuman took in all of this and could not help but feel a sense of praise for Ron. This should be Ron’s first time on a long journey, but when he saw someone, whose cultivation base was obviously inferior to his, was able to take a super luxurious magic airship, while he could only take the most ordinary airship, he was still calm. He did not have any negative feelings of envy or jealousy. This state of mind even surpassed his. He was indeed a descendant who had been carefully nurtured by his master.
However, Karuman was a little puzzled. His master had spent so much effort to nurture Ron, so why did he not give Ron some Magic Stones so that he could take a better airship? Could it be that he had done this deliberately to hone Ron’s temperament?
They quickly boarded an ordinary airship, but they did not use Magic Stones. Instead, they used ordinary money to buy the airship tickets. It was definitely a large sum of money, enough for a family of three to live happily for ten years. But here, using ordinary money to buy a boat ticket was an existence inferior to others. Even the ticketing officer’s tone was cold to them. He threw them a ticket token and lowered his head to call for the next one.. He did not even look at them.
