Chapter 1679 [Fufu's Bizarre Adventure 71] Say Goodbye to Mom and Dad (bushi)

The second day after being "taken away" by Fu Yuelong.

Saier crawled to the edge of Fu Yuelong's back and found a relatively stable place to lie down.

Unlike someone who just muddles through, this young man has a serious character inherited from his father, and he has really listened to Gail's previous teachings about "always checking the road signs."

So today, he only planned to do one thing, which was to look down at the earth.

Fu Yuelong was flying at a very high altitude, even above the clouds, and the vast dense Tros forest below was blurred into a dark green area.

But if you look closely, you can still barely see some more conspicuous terrain such as mountains, rivers, and large lakes through the gaps in the clouds.

At first, he had difficulty relating the terrain to the poorly delineated landmarks on the map.

So he held the map in his hand, observing the earth without stopping, and comparing it with the map over and over again.

From early morning to noon, and then to the afternoon, after most of the day, he finally completely confirmed their current location.

Everything after that is easy.

Using the prominent terrain along the route below as landmarks, the flight route of the floating dragon can be accurately mapped out.

By using the time it takes to pass two waypoints and combining it with the scale on the map, it is easy to calculate the flying speed of the Fuyue Dragon.

In the end, he concluded that the Fuyue dragon was flying in a nearly straight line in the direction of northeast.

As for the flying speed, it may be less than ten kilometers per hour.

What is this concept?

Not to mention compared with vehicles like airships, if it were on flat land, a hunter could run faster than it.

But is this speed really slow?

You know, the Fuyue dragon flies at high altitudes without paying attention to the terrain, and it flies day and night. So, by this calculation, it can fly two hundred kilometers a day.

If it keeps this speed and doesn't land, they should be able to see the sea in four or five days at most.

Realizing this, Sayre hurriedly told his companions about his discovery.

When Fu Fu first heard this conclusion, she was a little panicked.

What were they waiting for? They were just waiting for Fu Yue Long Fei to get tired and land.

If this guy landed on the ground, then everything would be fine. They just needed to be careful and it would not be difficult to find a chance to escape from danger. But if this guy landed on the sea,

They swam back?

However, this worry only lasted for a short time.

While Sayre was looking down at the earth by checking the map, Fu Fu was not idle either.

After this period of "peaceful coexistence", they are no longer as nervous as when they first went up to the sky. To be honest, the guy under their feet is actually quite docile.

Well, it’s not quite right to say “docile”. A more accurate statement is that this Fuyue dragon doesn’t care about these flea-like guys at all.

As long as they don't jump around in front of it, it's too lazy to wave its tentacles and slap them to death.

Realizing this, Fu Fu left the fish fillet in the tree hole to catch up on her sleep, and she carefully surveyed the thousands of square meters of "forest" on the back of the floating dragon several times.

There were many unfamiliar plants, such as those ridiculously strong trees, but there were also many familiar plants, including trees, shrubs, and herbs. She even found a medicinal herb that was growing very well.

There are not many salt- and alkali-tolerant species among these plants, and the water in that small pond is relatively clean.

All this shows that although Fuyuelong looks like a giant octopus, it is probably not accustomed to the ecological environment of the ocean, and the probability of it landing on the sea surface is not high.

In this case, there is no need to worry too much.

After listening to Fu Fu's analysis, Sai Er felt a little relieved.

Judging from the current situation, it is most likely that Fuyuelong will land before reaching the coastline. If this guy is preparing to cross the sea, then the final destination will most likely be the Fenglong area (Old Forest) on the other side of the sea.

If that were the case, they could only consider themselves unlucky and say goodbye to their parents in the old world.

(To facilitate understanding, the following diagram is drawn. ① is the location of the tiankeng where the Fufeng Dragon first slept, ② is the location of the rift valley where Fufu and the others were taken away, and the red arrow is the path of the Fufeng Dragon's flight)

At the same time, Jiangbo Village.

On the emergency activated Dragon Knowledge Ship, scholars and high-ranking hunters were holding a meeting.

"Based on the analysis of the target's size, the lushness of the vegetation on its back, and other details in the urgent letter sent back by Ms. Gale, we have reason to suspect that the Fuyue Dragon that was originally sleeping in the Tross Forest is most likely the first species of Fuyue Dragon - Fufeng Dragon."

"."

"."

"If Fufenglong could easily fly thousands of kilometers continuously, then its behavior of landing in the rift valley to rest would be quite redundant."

"Combining the above factors, I think it is more likely that the Fufenglong will not cross the sea directly, but will land before reaching the coastline."

The scholars were discussing, but Feng Ying interrupted their discussion with a serious face and an impatient tone, "So what? Give a more direct conclusion."

An hour ago, after receiving an urgent letter from Peregrine Falcon sent by Shayan and learning that Fu Fu and the others were "taken away" by Fu Yuelong, Feng Ying immediately wanted to board the high-speed airship to chase after them.

The same was true for Kio, who usually gave people a very steady impression. It was the investigation team leader of the Longli Academy who held them back.

Whether it is a light, high-speed airship or a large flying ship like the Dragon Knowledge Ship, preparations for takeoff take time, and the formulation of an action plan is also very important.

But it was obviously not realistic to persuade these anxious people to stay in the village and hold a meeting first. In desperation, the investigation team leader simply transferred everyone to the Longshi ship.

While arranging personnel to add fuel, preheat the boiler, and carry out a series of preparations before takeoff, a meeting was held directly on the ship.

During this period of time, Feng Ying, Kio and others gradually calmed down, at least they no longer looked like they were ready to draw their knives at any time.

As a scholar of the Dragon Calendar Academy, Issa was already accustomed to the hunters' style. He didn't care about the unfriendly tone in Feng Ying's voice at all. He walked to the large map hanging on the wall and drew an arc with a charcoal pencil.

“From the description in the letter sent back by Ms. Gale, the flying speed of the Fufeng Dragon is not very fast.

If Fu Yuelong's forward route remains unchanged, with the speed of the dragon ship, it is entirely possible to bypass, overtake and intercept it.

The plan we recommended was that the Longshi ship sail at full speed toward the east coast, rush in front of Fu Yuelong, then turn around and cut into Fu Yuelong's route and sail head-on with it.

This way we can have a greater chance of completing the interception."

"No."

Feng Ying's face was still gloomy, "The Dragon Identification Ship is too big. Once it appears in Fu Yuelong's field of vision, it is very likely to anger it, and the possibility of a fight breaking out is very high.

I would rather release a faster small airship and chase it along the route of the floating dragon, which would give us a better chance of bringing back the trapped people. "

"Or combine the two plans?" Keo also gave his own opinion, "The Dragon Knowledge Ship will drop a high-speed airship midway.

After that, the Dragon Knowledge Ship continued to accelerate to the front of Fu Yuelong's flight path, preparing to intercept, while the small airship was responsible for the pursuit.

If the small airship successfully catches up with Fu Yuelong and rescues the trapped people, it will use the Peregrine Falcon to send a message to notify the Dragon Identification Ship to cancel the interception plan and stay away from Fu Yuelong's route.

If the rescue fails, the Longshi ship blocking the coastline is the last insurance."

The scholars whispered to each other and nodded, seeming to be quite satisfied with this plan.

But at this moment, Feng Ying once again clearly expressed her opposition.

“No, I have made it very clear before, the Dragon Identification Ship cannot appear in Fu Yuelong’s sight, even if the high-speed airship fails to rescue it.

Use the Dragon-Knowledge Ship to intercept? How do you want to intercept? Fufusel and the others are still on the back of the Fuyue Dragon. Do you want to bombard them directly with heavy artillery? Or do you want to let the Dragon-Knowledge Ship ram into them head-on? "

Feng Ying's question plunged the meeting room into silence.

She glanced at everyone and continued, “Under the current circumstances, the role of the Dragon Knowledge Ship is to serve as a mobile temporary camp.

Organize and recruit elite combat forces. The only way to pursue them is by high-speed airship. Arrange the preparations. I will lead the team myself."
