Chapter 824: Arjing Village

(Unedited)

…

It did not take long for Shin Jiao to figure out a way to increase the height of the ship up to 200 meters. But he was a bit dejected as he needed to use some of the few materials he is keeping inside his dimension.

Since using magic for flight is a bit energy-consuming and impractical for now. Shin Jiao began thinking of an alternative. If he uses a turbine engine it would be too loud and would attract too much attention. So for a more stealthy approach, he thought of air balloons or blimps principle and combines them with arrays. This way he could make the flying ship hover stably without consuming too much mana energy.

As he thinks to this point, he began crafting and installing large sphere objects around the ship. It took him another day to complete his work and showed a satisfied smile.

"I hope this works this time," he muttered as he activated the ship's power once again.

This time using the ship's power, the array inside those sphere objects activated and a reaction began. Though the ship still consumes power, it is not that much anymore, plus this time, through the spheres, the ship was able to float higher more than 300 meters above the ground.

It could still float higher but Shin Jiao discover that there are strong and mysterious astral winds, so they settle on traveling within the 300 meters height.

The airship successfully escaped the confines of the forest this time and everyone onboard look at the beautiful scenery of rolling mountains and lush green forest.

On the horizon, they could even see the small Arjing Village. But upon looking at this scene, Shin Jiao also noticed something. There is actually another settlement not too far from the village. But the terrain in that area is a bit dangerous.

"We can see the village from this point…" Xiamen Gong said while looking at the telescope.

It took them only an hour to reach the village borders as the ship travels at around 50 kph.

Meanwhile, as the village watchmen saw a large floating object above the forest they were immediately all afraid. They thought that a large flying beast is going to attack the village.

And because of this, large chaos envelopes the whole village as all of the mages are gathered in front of the village walls.

The large flying object suddenly stopped within 500 meters away from the wall and then it slowly descended.

When the people clearly saw what it was, they were all amazed. This is because it is their first time seeing a flying ship. Although it is uncommon, some people have a knowledge that ships can only be found in the vast rivers of the kingdom. And those ships have large sails on top of them to make them able to freely navigate through the waters.

However, right now in front of them is a ship that does not need water to travel and does not have large sails to navigate. It could freely float in the air and could traverse the vast forest. This scene is truly a miracle in the eyes of the villagers.

At this time, they noticed from afar that the ship's side slowly opens. It's like seeing the belly of a large beast opening up. Then they saw three people walking out of the ship followed by a couple more which slowly disembarks some boxes from the ship.

When the three people arrive in front of the village gate everyone saw a tall man with long jet black hair tied behind him and clad in a black leather overcoat. The two people beside him are very attractive, one is a very handsome young man with a regal demeanor, and the other one is a kingdom toppling beauty. The young man is wearing a dark blue robe with a long sword dangling on his side. The young woman, on the other hand, is wearing a light pink silky gown that made her look like an immortal deity.

The two are Xiamen Gong and Hua Xiao. Though Shin Jiao did not accept the woman yet and she is still a bit proud of herself, he could not deny the fact that these two are perfect for negotiations. They are used to doing negotiations for their clans and families, so he would let them do this task.

He would not have people who are useless in his group. In his mind, he already has plans on how to maximize the use of those five people except the other one named Ansen Wine. He has a bad feeling about the guy, but he would never do anything to those who did not hurt him, so he would just let this guy off. If ever he made a bad move, then he could not blame Shin Jiao for killing him, right?

Shin Jiao stood in front of the tall gate and saw many people looking at him.

"Greetings! We are traveling merchants who came from afar… And we would like to make a trade…" he said with a smile as he curtsied towards those looking at him.

When the people saw this, they were all suspicious. But from a small door on the side, a group of people walks out of and stood in front of Shin Jiao's group of three.

"I am Fexiang Mi, the head of this village…" a beautiful mature looking woman said as she nodded her head with elegance.

"This woman is an 8th level High Mage… This village is not like Jixingyo Village." Shin Jiao thought.

"Miss Mi, may I know the name of your village?" Shin Jiao asked politely.

"This is Arjing Village, the defensive front of Main Arjing City… You are a traveling merchant, right? What kind of products do you sell?" she asked with a hint of suspicion in her tone.

Shin Jiao knew that since they came into this village using the big flying ship everyone would be on guard against them, so he decided to put down some of his cards.

"Well, we sell three kinds of products that I know your village does not have yet…" Shin Jiao said as he extended his hand towards Hua Xiao.

Her face showed reluctance but still takes out a small light bulb and handed it to Shin Jiao.

"This Miss Mi is called magic light bulb. Please observe…" Shin Jiao did not let the other talk and just showed her what the light bulb can do.

Shin Jiao put the bulb close to him and cover it with his shadow against the sunlight. Then he puts some of this mana in it and it suddenly glowed.

When Fexiang Mi saw this, her eyes showed astonishment. The people behind her also showed the same expression in their eyes.

"This is not new… I can just conjure a magic light and it could do the same, brighter even…" a sarcastic tone from behind said with a smirk on his bearded face.

Shin Jiao saw that the voice belongs to a middle-aged man with a brown thick beard covering his slightly fat face.

The other on his side also nodded their heads in agreement. They all look at Shin Jiao and his group in disdain.

But Shin Jiao saw that this man would casually take glances at Hua Xiao. It seems that he took a fancy to the woman. Shin Jiao showed a slight smile on his face as he nodded his head.

"This is useless to us… But if you sell that ship and… this… woman… then maybe I can pay you even 10,000 gold coins… Hahaha!" the man said with a loud chuckle.

The expression on Hua Xiao's face turned ugly. She did not want to hear such words from these mortals. She was someone who holds authority in the Xiao family and was used to being praised by others. When Shin Jiao insulted her that time in the hotel, it made her really mad that she immediately wanted to kill the hateful guy. But who would have known that he is not some ordinary immortal? He could even use magic in this place, so she could not help but submit to him for now.

But the man in front of her is nothing to her eyes. So she suddenly wanted to draw her sword.

"Hahaha… Mister, I don't know who you are, but as I told you guys, we are just traveling merchants… However, if you have half the mind that is supposed to be in your large head, you would already think about how we are able to survive on our own in this chaotic world… Don't you think so?" Shin Jiao said nonchalantly while smirking on the side.

"I don't want to bother with insignificant people… I wanted to trade for some goods. I not only have this product, but also these two." Shin Jiao then showed the magic battery and the canned meat.

He attached the magic battery to the bulb and it lit up without even using his mana. Then he opens the canned meat in front of these people.

When they all saw this and smell the delicious aroma, everyone was now dumbfounded.. The mocking and angry expression in their faces changed to astonishment and delight.
