Chapter 361: Chapter 21: Flying Snake Transformation, Dragon Control, Astonished Patti and Chen Lu!

In the Gang Wind Layer at an altitude of 1,200 meters, the Netherflame Warship flew towards City No. 109, fifty li away.

Inside the warship’s cabin, three members of the Shapa Clan were gathered, each wrapped in black robes with specially-made face armor covering even their faces. They sat on three chairs, intently staring at a map.

"We’re almost there. Just one more city destroyed and our three brothers will see our military exploits surge. After we return this time, we can purchase a set of Fifth-Order Silver Feather Armor," one of the Sha Clan members said, grinning.

"Big brother Patti, with your strength, and once you put on the Silver Feather Armor, you will be able to wield the power of Seventh Grade Perfection. Our pace of earning military exploits will be even faster then."

As they spoke, the two Sha Clan members looked toward their big brother.

"The Silver Feather Armor is just a transition," said Patti, a towering figure who completely dwarfed the chair he was sitting on, "The Golden Feather Battle Armor is the real treasure of the Royal Court!"

"If I could wear the Golden Feather Battle Armor, I could easily defeat those of the Sixth Grade; and even if I can’t beat the stronger Sixth Graders, I could still escape."

Hearing mention of the "Golden Feather" Battle Armor, all three showed longing in their eyes.

The Golden Feather Battle Armor was the pinnacle of the Golden Feather Royal Court’s craftsmanship, said to surpass even the standards of Great Zhou.

However, the Golden Feather Battle Armor was usually reserved for the royal family. The various tribes rarely had the chance to buy it, making do with "Flying Feather" and "Silver Feather" armor instead.

It was only because the Divine Mountain had issued a war order, commanding the four royal courts to deploy that the tribes were granted access to purchase the Golden Feather Battle Armor to boost their strength.

The Patti brothers had nearly accumulated enough exploits for a Silver Feather Armor, but the Golden Feather Armor was still far out of reach.

"The military exploits required for the Golden Feather Armor are a hundred times that of the Silver Feather Armor, and the monthly exchange quota is limited," one Sha Clan member said with a sigh, "I’m afraid it won’t be our turn until next year."

"Zesheng, my good brother, don’t sigh," Patti chuckled, "Once we breach this city and take our spoils, we might gather enough exploits in one go."

"Everything from Great Zhou is worth a lot over here; we might even have some to spare!"

"Then, each of the three brothers will have their own Golden Feather Battle Armor! Hahaha!"

"Hahaha, big brother is right, Great Zhou’s cities are treasure troves!"

Hearing Patti say this, all three brothers burst into laughter together.

The current strategy in the Southern Desolate was to attack while retreating, but these three brothers risked a return, all for the sake of plundering.

Great Zhou was a supreme nation, where even the most common Third-Order armor could fetch a high price among the Southern Barbarian tribes.

Having already raided two granary cities, the Netherflame Warship was nearly filled to half with spoils. The Divine Weapons alone were nearly enough to exchange for a set of Silver Feather Armor.

Many other treasures that they couldn’t recognize might be worth even more. But to play it safe, they decided to strike one more city, the Zhenhai Army’s Supply City.

"Only thirty li left. Go tell our people to get the Heavy Water Catapult ready," Patti instructed, "Remember, once we breach the city, use ’Blood Kui’ to destroy their divine temple first."

"That way, we’ll have more time to plunder."

"The last city was slow to destroy the divine temple, allowing the reinforcements to arrive quickly. We had too little time to scourge. We can’t afford to make that mistake again."

"Yes."

The two Sha Clan members immediately went to the lower cabin, where more Sha Clan people were operating the Mechanical Array.

"Kakakaka~"

At Patti’s command, the Netherflame Warship was braced for action and accelerated its advance.

Unbeknownst to Patti, a nimble Arrowfish Flying Boat had appeared on the horizon behind them.

.....

On the Arrowfish Flying Boat, Zhao Xing observed the Netherflame Warship: "The warship has slowed down; they’re preparing to siege. The Zhenhai Army’s city seems oblivious to the approaching enemy."

After pursuing for a while, Zhao Xing’s Arrowfish Flying Boat finally caught sight of the Netherflame Warship’s physical form.

It hovered over City No. 109 of the Zhenhai Army, still cloaked in invisibility.

Long Xiao: "I wonder who the City Lord of this Zhenhai Army’s city is. We have no way to alert them, so let’s observe the situation first."

Zhao Xing nodded.

Although confident in their ability to easily defeat adversaries of the same rank, if the enemy holed up inside the Netherflame Warship, they would struggle to break through its defenses in a short time.

The Netherflame Warship was a mid-sized vessel, ranked at the Fifth Order.

However, it was not on the same level as a single Fifth-Order Divine Weapon.

Composed of thousands of Fifth-Order materials, such treasures, once sold, automatically increased a grade in value.

A Fifth-Order item had to be sold at the price of a Sixth-Order weapon.

There were no strong offensive weapons on the Arrowfish Flying Boat, so they had to wait for the enemy to exit the warship.

Or they could strike when the enemy lowered their defensive barrier to attack.

Why did Long Xiao refer to it as stumbling upon a fat sheep? Because capturing this warship would be like selling it for the price of a Sixth-Order item, and those capable of piloting such a vessel were definitely worth a lot.

"Do you know the Invisibility Spell?" Long Xiao asked, "Could you cast one on me later?"

"You have too much faith in me; just because I can use Invisibility Grassman doesn’t mean I know the Invisibility Spell. That’s a high-grade spell."

Long Xiao shrugged: "Then we’ll just have to barge in. Later, try to get the Flying Boat as close to the warship as possible."

They couldn’t count on the Zhenhai Army.

The weapons on the ship’s sides were already extended, yet there was still no reaction from below.

"Can do," Zhao Xing nodded.

...

The City Lord of Zhenhai Army’s City No. 109 was named ’Chen Lu’.
