This is the first exploration operation after the Winter Challenge.
The goals are clear and the preparations are thorough.
Although the Winter Challenge seemed to restrict Zong Shen's actions, it did not affect his improvement in strength at all.
In fact, such challenges are the opportunities that the lord system gives all lords to improve their strength.
It is a kind of quick training, because experience and lessons are the best teachers.
After experiencing many battles, Zong Shen has become proficient in the use of various weapons.
Fighting and fighting do not require skills at all. The skill of fighting must of course be cultivated in fighting.
Fighting is the best teacher, when a person has experienced thousands of battles.
Every attack will be the most appropriate and efficient way.
Obsessing with routines and techniques will lead to inferiority.
No matter how boxing, swordsmanship, swordsmanship or fighting skills, in the final analysis, practice makes perfect.
Learning routines and techniques simply amounts to mastering fighting techniques in a softer way.
But Zong Shen completely replaced practice with actual combat, so there was no need to consider routines at all.
The power of all the turbofan units of the goblin airship was increased to the maximum gear, and the thrust reached the limit.
You can hear the sound of fans spinning around you while sitting in the pod.
The sky is relatively calm two to three thousand meters above, and the vast airspace is much wider than the ocean.
The golden line navigation manifested in the strategy tips is the best route to the destination.
All known hazards are excluded from the route.
The airship headed towards the northern part of the territory, first passing over the Bone Burial Ground, and then gradually turning to the west.
About thirty or forty minutes later, the airship had already flown into the sky above the mountain forest.
The lush green forest can be seen from the cockpit.
At this moment, all traces of the winter challenge have disappeared.
As far as the eye could see, there was no longer any unsightly ice and snow. This feeling made Zong Shen feel much better.
The world of ice and snow is really too depressing, and due to the nature of the challenge, there is an obvious sense of sensory separation between the lords and the aborigines. No matter what they see, feel, or touch, they are actually all different.
Although this difference is bearable, it still makes people feel uncomfortable.
Now that everything is over, Zong Shen has returned to a normal world with the same senses as the aborigines.
The terrain in the mountains and forests is extremely undulating. Looking down from a high altitude, you can clearly see the rolling hills, with peaks standing on each other, and the bottoms are connected to each other, forming a chain of interlocking valleys, ravines, ravines, and peaks.
Three-dimensional scenery.
During this period, we could also see unknown birds and raptors flying by in the distance.
From a high-altitude perspective, and because the weather is clear, the clouds are thin, and there is no obstruction, these soaring birds of prey are only as big as a grain of rice.
The distance between the two is at least tens of kilometers.
This distance is safe enough and will not arouse their hostility.
Less than an hour and a half later, the airship had arrived near its destination.
Zong Shen let the airship slow down and enter the circulation state. He stood up, took out the [Single Telescope (Purple)] he had just drawn, closed his right eye, and put his left eye to the telescope.
This is a single-cylinder retractable telescope. When not extended, it is about as thick as an adult's arm and about thirty centimeters in length.
After stretching, the length can reach 70 centimeters, and the diameter of the end lens cylinder is approximately equivalent to five fingers placed together. When Zong Shen observes with a telescope, the field of view increases several times.
There is a huge stone cliff on a high mountain twenty or thirty kilometers in front of the airship.
The top is extremely flat, without any trees, and there are steep rocks on both sides. There is a drop of more than a thousand meters from the bottom of the cliff on the mountainside to the top of the cliff.
Counting the altitude from the bottom of the mountain to the mountainside, the total height of this cliff reaches more than 2,000 meters.
Most of the mountains here are hills and hills with an altitude of several hundred meters, so this cliff is also a commanding height nearby. Standing among the mountains, it gives a feeling of standing out from the crowd.
Right on the top of this cliff, there is a huge dome nest.
This nest is so huge that it almost looks like a bird's nest hat has been put on the cliff.
The entire body is made of thigh-thick logs crisscrossed together.
It's like a cylindrical wooden house, except that the roof of this wooden house is a strange bird's nest shape.
It's like wearing an afro made of wood.
There is only a circular entrance near the west side.
Because the distance is too far, Zong Shen cannot accurately estimate the diameter of the entrance to the nest, even with the help of a telescope.
You can only turn to the strategy module to supplement information.
After thinking about it, some parameters immediately appeared in his field of vision.
The shape of the entrance is actually not regular, but appears relatively circular in ultra-long viewing distance.
The diameter at the widest point is 56 meters and the diameter at the narrowest point is 42 meters.
This entrance is beyond imagination.
Gryphons are also roughly divided in size and strength according to age.
A normal captain-level griffon, that is, an adult griffin, is slightly larger than an adult hippogryph, and much larger than a dragon eagle.
But even so, the captain-level griffon's body length is about three meters, and its wings can reach a length of six or seven meters when fully extended.
A mature griffon at the command level can reach five to seven meters in length, with a maximum wingspan of fifteen or six meters.
It's like an airbus that can fly.
The wingspan of raptors can reach two to three times the body length, let alone aerial monsters like griffons.
As for the overlord-level old griffon, it is even more exaggerated. The body length can reach about 123 meters, and the wings can reach 278 meters when extended.
This body length is already comparable to that of young black dragons and young white dragons.
Gryphons also have a long lifespan, usually living for five or six centuries.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Among them, the lifespan of the golden-winged gryphon and the dragon-veined gryphon are even longer, and their size will be even larger.
One thing to say, such a large entrance is very suitable for the body shape of an overlord-level dragon-veined gryphon.
This all comes from the information provided by the strategy module.
It is said that griffons have a habit of collecting gems, and there must be abundant gems and gold and silver deposits near their lairs. I wonder if there are precious gem mines nearby.
From a geographical point of view, this place should have left the scope of Azshara Mine.
However, the existence of adjacent mineral veins cannot be ruled out.
Analyzing the actual situation, this is still very possible.
At the cruising speed of the goblin airship, it would take at most twenty or thirty minutes to reach the griffin's nest.
There are mountains and forests with dense vegetation nearby. It is not easy to find a safe landing place for the airship. The only flat area is the top of the cliff, behind the griffin's nest, where there is a piece of land that is not occupied by the nest.
The open space is enough for the goblin airship to land.
However, if you land there, you will definitely be besieged by the prime griffins and adult griffins who are staying in the nest.
Although the guide mentioned that the overlord-level dragon-veined griffons took away most of the griffins in the nest.
However, there are still basic defense forces in the Griffin Nest.
The air is their home field. Once they fight desperately, the goblin airship will not be able to hold on for long before it will be torn to pieces by these guys.
In the pod of the airship, it would be difficult for Zong Shen and the others to exert their due strength, and they would fall into passivity.
Therefore, the landing location provided by Golden Line Navigation is on the mountainside under the stone cliff.
There is also an open space without tree cover, more than a thousand meters away from the top of the cliff. As long as you are careful, you should not be discovered.
As for how to get up the cliff, it's easy to do. Caniggia knows the mass levitation technique, and Zong Shen also has the group levitation rune on hand. The height difference of the cliff cannot meet the requirements of the levitation technique.
After making up his mind, Zong Shen sat back in the cockpit, canceled the cruise mode, started manual control, turned in one direction, and flew towards the back of the griffon's nest.
