Seeing the behemoth they had participated in creating, the villagers were not only shocked, but also uncontrollably curious.
In their eyes, Tang Zhen was a wealthy and capable man, who was different from them in every aspect.
The things he spends a lot of money to make are naturally not simple.
They have many speculations about this item in the yard of Big Dog's house, and they are studying its purpose.
It might be a house, it might be a car, or it might just be a toy.
With their shallow knowledge, they simply cannot figure out what this is, let alone what it means to be involved in it.
If they can remember the entire manufacturing process and study it carefully, they may be able to change the fate of digging in the soil.
Even if the manufacturing process cannot be replicated, as long as you remember one thing about it, you can still benefit a lot.
But Tang Zhen didn't say anything about this, so the villagers had no idea. Maybe one day they would realize how valuable the knowledge they had learned was!
After all the basic work was completed, Tang Zhen ordered the villagers to follow his requirements and collect all kinds of grease across the mountains and plains.
Animal fats, plant fats, or some special stones are all included in the collection list.
As for Tang Zhen himself, he was busy carving rune circles on items all day long.
The purpose of carving the rune circle is to make the item stronger and lighter, with a strength that is not inferior to metal.
This is a very precise work that requires sufficiently profound knowledge of runes, and there is no room for error during the process.
Because his strength was sealed, Tang Zhen could not complete the work in one thought and could only complete all the steps slowly.
While carving the rune array, Tang Zhen also created a special engine specifically to provide power.
These tasks can only be completed by Tang Zhen himself. Firstly, others don't know how to do it, and secondly, he doesn't feel comfortable leaving it to others.
While Tang Zhen was working, Ergou had been listening to his orders. He watched a pile of materials turn into a huge thing in front of him. The shock in his heart could hardly be described in words.
For Ergou, this kind of shock is far more intense than seeing the power of a monk. Without enough knowledge inheritance, it is impossible to create such a great thing out of thin air.
Tang Zhen was very high in his heart. He was promoted again and again, almost equal to the gods.
…
Days passed by, and counting the day Tang Zhen entered this world, it has now been a month.
In such a long time, Tang Zhen has never hunted monsters, and his level has remained at around level five.
One month has stagnated. Compared with other Loucheng monks, perhaps his level advantage no longer exists.
According to his guess, after discovering that hunting monsters can quickly improve their strength, the monks in Loucheng will definitely look for clues everywhere and work hard to kill monsters to upgrade.
Perhaps the location of Duan Tou Ridge has been known to other Loucheng monks, and they are currently clearing away monsters there.
It is very likely that after Tang Zhen arrived, Duan Tou Ridge had been completely cleaned up, and he was just making a wasted trip.
But Tang Zhen didn't care, because he knew in his heart that what he did would definitely bring him more benefits.
Even if it wastes some time and delays the progress of level improvement, it is definitely worth it.
The continuous efforts finally paid off. After inspection, Tang Zhen confirmed that all the assembly work of the rune airship designed and manufactured by himself had been completed.
The oil extracted by the villagers was also mixed by Tang Zhen using a special method, turning it into a black-red viscous paste, which was sealed in bamboo tubes.
In addition, there are some items that are carefully put away after preparation and no one is allowed to touch them.
After instructing the villagers to load the ointment into the cabin, Tang Zhen asked Ergou to say goodbye to his family, because he was going to Duoling Ridge next.
Ergou had been waiting for this day for a long time. He handed the money he picked up to his brother and told his sister to find a good family, then turned around and came to Tang Zhen.
The shed above the rune airship has been demolished, completely exposing the more than ten meters long rune airship, which looks like a crouching monster.
With a group of villagers watching, Tang Zhen and the others boarded the rune airship and closed the wooden hatch.
Following Tang Zhen's command, Ergou threw the boiled ointment into the combustion chamber to provide the power to start the rune airship.
The huge spindle-shaped air bag above was filled with a large amount of hot air in an instant. Under the influence of the rune array, this process was far more than ten times faster than normal.
"It moved, that thing actually moved!"
Some villagers exclaimed loudly, with astonishment on their faces, and subconsciously retreated to watch from a distance.
They participated in the manufacture of the rune airship and had guessed at its use, but they never thought that this thing could fly.
For these villagers, the sky is a restricted area. How can a creature without wings fly up there?
But at this moment, they saw with their own eyes that this object made of wood and various materials was slowly floating into the sky above them, getting further and further away from their position.
"This is... a fairy!"
The village chief finally recovered from his shock, knelt on the ground and shouted loudly, his eyes full of excitement and respect.
The same was true for other villagers. They knelt on the ground one after another, and their hearts were also filled with fear. Have they ever neglected the gods in the past?
It is not surprising that the villagers behave like this, because to them, it seems that only gods can build a rune airship that can fly into the sky.
…
Ergou's mood was very excited, but his body was not up to par. As the rune airship ascended, his legs kept shaking.
He forced himself not to look at the scene outside, lest he be so frightened that he peed his pants.
"Don't worry, the rune airship is very safe and will never fall."
Seeing the pain on Ergou's face, Tang Zhen smiled and reminded him casually.
"Your Excellency thought, I know it's okay, but I just can't help but be afraid..."
Ergou showed a smile that was uglier than crying. He closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing to adapt to the bumpy feeling of the rune airship.
Tang Zhen smiled and said nothing. He knew that it would not take long for Ergou to adapt to the bumps of flying in the sky, and would even become deeply obsessed with this feeling.
Tang Zhen took Ergou with him before leaving because he needed someone to do some chores. After all, he had other things to do.
Compared to those villagers, Ergou was naturally the best choice, and it was natural for him to be chosen.
After estimating the height of the airship, Tang Zhen pulled a lever, and then saw wings slowly spreading out on both sides of the rune airship.
The length of these two wings is more than fifty meters, and the main materials are wood and animal skins. Because villagers participated in the construction, the craftsmanship can only be regarded as average.
The rune array engraved on it ensures that the wings are extremely strong and will never break easily.
After the wings were unfolded, the rune airship immediately became more stable, just like a giant strange bird gliding in the clear sky.
After Ergou felt the change, his body trembled much less, and his pale face gradually regained its color.
Due to limited conditions, the layout of the cockpit is very simple, and there is constant cold wind blowing by.
To Tang Zhen, these were nothing, except Ergou who couldn't adapt and could only wrap a piece of animal skin around his body.
Tang Zhen stood on the platform of the rune airship, looking at the wilderness passing below, looking for areas where monsters might exist.
This is one of Tang Zhen's main purposes of building a rune airship. It not only allows him to travel faster and more conveniently, but also allows him to observe the surrounding situation from a high position.
After possessing this method, which is equivalent to the detection of mental power, Tang Zhen's advantages will be doubled, and the monks in Loucheng who cannot fly cannot compare at all.
In addition, he also has air superiority and can launch attacks from a high position. If combined with weapons such as bombs, he is almost no different from a bomber.
Looking at the end of the horizon, a trace of expectation flashed in Tang Zhen's eyes. He didn't know if his efforts would achieve the expected results?
