Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate-Chapter 257 - 255: Flight Test

The day of the Tier Ten Equipment auction has finally arrived.

Early in the morning.

Lin You set off, heading towards the Main City.

Because today he had made an appointment with those Tier Eight Lords to meet at the teahouse in the Main City.

What he didn’t expect was.

When he arrived at the private room on the second floor of the teahouse as per the message, the Lords had already arrived ahead of him and were waiting there.

"You must be Brother Lin, Lin You?"

There were five people present in total, led by a friendly-looking old man who appeared to be in his forties.

The rest varied in age, both male and female.

Most of them were a few years older than Lin You, exuding a strong presence.

One look was enough to tell they were seasoned Lords.

While Lin You was observing them, they were surreptitiously assessing Lin You as well.

However, Lin You had experienced such situations many times and was not intimidated.

After scanning the group, he smiled and walked in.

"Yes, that’s me. I hope you haven’t been waiting long?"

"We just got here ourselves, have a seat, I’ve already ordered some breakfast. It’ll be served shortly."

The leading friendly elder, named Zong Lei, was considered the initiator of this discussion and the strongest in power.

Lin You had seen yesterday.

In the Duchy’s Tier Eight rankings, Zong Lei was listed among the top one hundred!

That alone showed how strong he was.

Moreover, his Fanyang City had the largest population, nearly seven hundred thousand, almost reaching the standard of those Tier Nine Lords.

"Alright, while the breakfast hasn’t arrived yet, why don’t we discuss the flying routes first, Brother Lin, do you mind?"

Seeing Lin You seated, Zong Lei began speaking first.

The others, upon hearing this, also looked towards Lin You, seeking his opinion, without belittling him due to his power level.

They had all survived to reach Tier Eight, which meant they were extremely clever.

One glance was enough to see Lin You’s extraordinariness.

Moreover, to be able to acquire such a rare large flying vehicle, his strength surely wasn’t weak, or he had immense potential.

Building good relations now would lay a foundation for another ally in the future.

Lin You naturally didn’t know their thoughts.

Seeing them all looking at him, he smiled and said, "Of course, let’s start directly, but before that, let me show you something."

Saying this, Lin You slowly took out a golden blueprint from his personal space, catching everyone’s eyes.

"This is..."

The sole female Lord opened her mouth, a hint of surprise flashing across her eyes.

A golden blueprint, even she had never seen before.

The others were the same, each taking turns examining the blueprint’s information.

When they saw the word "Rare" and the line of information below, their eyes widened suddenly.

"This is, a rare blueprint!"

"It’s actually a Rare Level Magic Energy Airship!?"

"Such fast initial speed!"

"Can it actually accommodate so many people at once??"

"This is definitely the most powerful flying vehicle I’ve ever seen!"

The exclamations of the Lords echoed incessantly through the private room.

And Lin You merely took a small taste, promptly putting the blueprint back into his personal space.

The reason he did this was to set the tone and assure them, demonstrating his sincerity.

Sure enough.

After seeing the Magic Energy Airship’s information, the last trace of doubt in Zong Lei and the others’ eyes dissipated, turning into eagerness.

With Lin You’s move, the subsequent negotiations became seamless and progressed very smoothly.

Just like that.

In less than an hour.

Lin You left the teahouse with ten newly acquired Power Cores, rushing back to his Territory.

[Power Core (Large): Needed for crafting large vehicles, manufactured by the Mechanical Type territory’s exclusive building, "Machine Factory."]

This was the first time Lin You had seen exclusive items from other types.

If he guessed correctly.

This Machine Factory was akin to the Plant Type Territory’s "Wood Self-Supply," which was a unique trait advantage belonging to its own territory.

From this point of view, other types of territories should also have similar advantages; he just hadn’t paid attention before.

Now that the Floating Engraving was in place and the Power Core was secured.

Only gathering enough Magic Powder remained to test-fly the Magic Energy Airship.

But before that, he had to wait for the Shifang Pavilion auction to end and receive the remaining share to afford buying so much Magic Powder.

According to Lu Zhenxing previously, the auction would be held at noon.

Seeing that there was still some time, Lin You returned directly to his territory, planning to test the various functions of the Flying Dock before the airship test flight.

Anyway, those small vehicles only required some basic materials to create; it wasn’t difficult for him.

But since an experiment was needed, lab rats were naturally indispensable.

So soon, he rode the Demon King Dragon over the city wall, flying above the Training Ground.

"Wei Gang, take a few people to the Flying Dock outside the forest."

His voice was loud and echoed throughout the entire Training Ground, making it audible even to the Territory’s residents on the nearby streets.

"What’s going on? Why is Lord calling Commander Wei so urgently?"

"Did something major happen?"

"Could it be Commander Wei angered the Lord?"

"Let’s go, we should also take a look."

As the saying goes, onlookers fear not escalation.

Hearing Lin You’s shout, the residents left the city area, heading outside the forest.

While Wei Gang was in the midst of military training, he didn’t dare to slack off and quickly left the city with a few of his subordinates.

"Commander, why do you think the Lord suddenly summoned you?"

On the way, a subordinate next to Wei Gang couldn’t help but ask.

"How would I know?" Wei Gang turned around and glared at him, "Maybe there’s something he needs to tell me."

In truth, Wei Gang was very nervous, completely unable to understand why the Lord would look for him at such a time.

Could it be because the Lord found out he spent the night at Little Hua’s house in the Gobi Desert two days ago?

Or was it because he was caught red-handed going to find the Dwarf Artisan for help crafting equipment yesterday?

The more he thought about it, the colder Wei Gang felt inside.

The Lord is so capable.

There’s no way he could hide this little secret, and he feared he would be harshly scolded or punished by being made to guard the city gates for a month.

But despite his many reservations, he ultimately arrived outside the forest.

There, a crowd of people had gathered, pointing and murmuring at the Flying Dock.

They too had just discovered the new construction outside the forest, so it was only natural for them to be curious.

Wei Gang pushed through the crowd and soon spotted Lin You tinkering with something on the platform of the Flying Dock, quickly speeding up to approach him.

"Lord, what do you need from me?"

Wei Gang approached Lin You with trepidation.

He was surprised to find strange things he had never seen before all laid out on the open ground in front of Lin You, piquing his curiosity.

"Oh, you’re here."

Lin You turned around, smiling, and waved at him and his subordinate.

"Everyone, come over here. I need your help with something."

"Help?"

Wei Gang walked forward with a puzzled look.

Then he saw Lin You pull out a set of wings and come behind him.

"Put this on and give it a try."

"Oh."

Obediently, Wei Gang did as he was told, stretching out his arms to put on the harness as Lin You instructed and securing the wings to his back.

At a glance, he indeed looked a bit like a birdman, giving Wei Gang a bad premonition.

Moreover, he noticed more and more people gathering around to watch.

"Lord... Lord, is this thing going to fly up to the sky?"

Wei Gang swallowed nervously, subconsciously giving the wings on his back a shake.

"Don’t worry, I’ve asked the Demon King Dragon to catch you. You won’t fall to your death," Lin You said with a smile.

But this caused Wei Gang’s face to turn pale.

"Lord..."

Wei Gang wanted to say something more.

But the next second, the wings on his back ignited with a "boom," spewing out a massive flame.

Then a force lifted him off the ground, his feet slowly rising.

As the flames intensified, his ascending speed became faster and more violent.

Finally, with a resounding boom, he shot into the sky like a horse breaking free of its reins!

"Wow——"

The onlookers outside the Flying Dock were in awe, their eyes wide open.

A Tier Six Cultivator actually had flying ability?

What kind of amazing thing was that?

Many had never been farther than the few nearby cities, so naturally, they couldn’t recognize it.

Some couldn’t help but exclaim repeatedly.

But before they could think more, Wei Gang’s screams suddenly echoed from the sky.

Driven by the jet wings, he spiraled in the air, making him dizzy and nauseous.

"Steady! Keep your balance!"

Below, Lin You shouted loudly with the two Demon King Dragons.

Wei Gang, proving himself as a Tier Six Cultivator, quickly steadied himself, trying to balance the wings in the air and change direction.

Finally, he managed to stabilize the wings and soared rapidly in the air.

"I’m flying! Lord! I can fly!"

Looking down at the vast land, Wei Gang was flushed with excitement.

For cultivators, apart from having special attributes, one needs to be at Tier Ten and control the Power of Rule to have the ability to fly through the sky.

For countless cultivators, it was an unattainable dream.

But now, with these wings on his back, he successfully flew into the sky, indescribably thrilling.

He even shouted with joy.

But lost in his triumph, he didn’t notice.

As time went by, the flames on his wings rapidly diminished.

When he reached the highest point, suddenly there was a "poof."

Extinguished...

Extinguished...

Off...

...

"Ah——"

His pig-like screams echoed through the sky.

Wei Gang’s body, weighing over a hundred pounds, fell straight towards the ground, his face turning green with fear.

Luckily, the two Demon King Dragons reacted swiftly, soared up, and caught him securely, saving his life.

"Seems like the Magic Energy we added is still a bit insufficient."

Watching the descending Demon King Dragon, Lin You muttered softly.
