A Bold Guess (Part 2)

Fran's guess is a bit biased, but she really made a reasonable guess based on the information that she currently knows a little more than others.

What she knows better than others is that soon, Number Nine Floating City will meet Sky Dragon. This is the inevitable result of what she saw with Star Gazing Art.

After searching for some information, she learned about Alchemy School's next plan: Floating City's Propulsion Department would become the focus, and Floating City was about to start a long journey.

From the mouths of these Alchemy School mages, they knew that this was to target Cult of the Sky Dragon.

But judging from the information just obtained, it seems that this is not the case, so where Alchemy School wants to drive Floating City is a question worth exploring.

First of all, Alchemy School will definitely not drive it into the sea, because the prophecy related to it "a Floating City will fall because of this" makes the Alliance almost all Floating City move away from Ocean.

No matter how arrogant Alchemy School's mage is, he should know that under such a prophecy, he must not fight at will.

If Number Nine Floating City really falls, it is estimated that the entire Alchemy School will have to wait hundreds of years to barely recover. The damage and cost to Alchemy School will be too great.

From the perspective of Highland Province to which Number Nine Floating City belongs, this is in the northeast direction of the Alliance. Going slightly northwest is Northern Territory and some areas with few resources.

Northern Territory is also a bad place. The reason why Iris was pushed out to Northern Territory was because just wanting to live a normal life in Northern Territory requires a certain amount of resources.

No mage would want to be so unique as to spend extra resources on a pile of snow. Even if the mages are Profession ers, they can always withstand the cold, but they can still feel discomfort.

In addition, even on Floating City, the number of mages is a minority, and there are a large number of people who are not mages.

The so-called privileged class refers to the existence of those non-privileged classes, which makes it appear that some groups of people have privileges.

Moreover, those large numbers of ordinary people and other Profession ers can also reduce the burden on the mage. What resources the mage needs can also be obtained from other people at a lower cost.

There are also a large number of convenient daily necessities that require ordinary people to participate in the production.

Therefore, there is no need for Number Nine Floating City to take action against a number of areas in the north. The profits these areas can finally plunder, even if the total share of selling the corpse to Necromancy School, can cover the loss of Floating City moving one kilometer?

And if Number Nine Floating City wants to go in any direction other than the north, then why not move other Floating City? Aren't other Floating City closer?

The Alliance also has some undeveloped Floating City. As long as Alchemy School applies, you can completely use those Floating City for action without taking the risk of Number Nine Floating City falling.

But the boss of Alchemy School seems to have decided that Number Nine Floating City must take action, even in this somewhat delicate environment.

After excluding a large number of targets in the north, only the Floating Isle island of Cult of the Sky Dragon is left.

And since this target has been ruled out again, without more information, other Fourth Order Mage including Iris may not be able to figure out what they want Floating City to move this time.

They only know that Legendary and Chief have their own arrangements, and they must either participate or leave Floating City at this point in time.

At this point, if Sky Dragon is in the body of the Material Realm, it is a more reasonable target.

This can also explain why Battle Mage Corps is not allowed to come to Number Nine Floating City, because it is completely unnecessary, and calling will even increase the risk of exposing the intention.

As a Deity with the plural Fourth Order Profession Sect in the Material Realm, it is actually easy to guess the strength of Sky Dragon in the Material Realm.

It is possible to have the strength to compete with Legendary, but it is somewhat impossible to have the strength to compete with Legendary.

Because Cult of the Sky Dragon can actually only be regarded as a medium-to-large Sect on the mainland. The truly huge Sect is still the three Deity that Fran saw in the 'Ancient' realm last time.

Among the three Deity, Sect of the Material Realm is the largest. From the grapevine, you can also hear that these three Sect appeared in history Fifth Order Legendary.

But even so, the territory of these beliefs Sect in the entire Material Realm is not very large. From this, we can get a glimpse of what strength these Deity would have if they had a body in the Material Realm.

If these three Sect's Deity and Material Realm can show strength above Legendary, then there won't be so many strange forces on the mainland now.

As for the medium and large-scale Sect, the strength of Sky Dragon is estimated to be much worse than that of Fifth Order Legendary. It is even possible that it can only gain an advantage in the battle with Fourth Order.

This also explains why Number Nine Floating City requires Fourth Order mages, because in this kind of high-Order battle, low-level mages cannot participate, but can only serve as auxiliary functions.

Low-level mages can perform cluster casting and use Floating City's cluster casting device to help Fourth Order Mage bear a large amount of Mental Power consumption and chant spells in advance.

This eliminates the need to use those Battle Mage who specialize in combat, and there is no need to let these low-level mages go up to fight.

When the target is only Sky Dragon, driving Floating City, which has been operating for thousands of years, Alchemy School, and relying on the bonus on Floating City and the combat power of High-Order Mage, then Sky Dragon has no chance of winning at all.

And not long ago, Fran also made a device that can detect the presence of Deity, which must be used in the next battle against Sky Dragon.

Fran feels that his speculation is very close to the truth. Some senior executives of Alchemy School have long been aware that Sky Dragon has a body in the Material Realm, or they have recently known about it.

Or maybe they feel that Deity's body in the Material Realm is of great research value, and they must go there first, not to let other mages get there first, or maybe the situation has changed and they need to do this to weaken Deity's power.

But in short, a series of top-secret tasks have been passed to push this matter forward.

Fran estimates that this is the truth of the matter. Number Nine Floating City will launch an attack on Sky Dragon after a period of time.

And this estimated start time will not be very late, because Alchemy School does not need to wait for any opportunity. As long as the materials are in place and Floating City can start to accelerate significantly, then it can start.

And the later it starts, the more mages will notice the anomaly of Number Nine Floating City, and the senior officials of Alchemy School will not be unaware of this.

Fran estimates that this will be after Gold Alchemy Award's award ceremony, because Propulsion Department's inspection deadline is after this.

And this will be before the award ceremony of Amber Law Award. At that time, a large number of Law School mages... No, it should be that most high-level Law School mages will arrive at Number Nine Floating City.

It's hard to say whether the higher-ups realize that when this Floating City starts to move, a large number of Law School mages will come to the Floating City.

Many Fourth Order Mage know about the negotiations between Iris and Law School, and know that the award ceremony for Amber Law Award will be held on Number Nine Floating City.

But whether those mages who made plans to attack Sky Dragon noticed it is another story.

No announcement was made about this matter. If it were to be made, it could only be made internally at Law School. The management of Alchemy School might be notified.

But will Legendary, who has disappeared from frontline work for so long, know that Amber Law Award will hold an award ceremony at Number Nine Floating City and will attract a large number of mages?

If you are aware of it, then does Legendary have the intention to use the power of these mages? After all, this is Alchemy School's home court, and they can still get the main harvest.

Fran looked around at the team of technicians who seemed to have found some clues. These mages came with a large number of strange instruments, as if they were prepared, and judging from their excited expressions, this was confirmed.

Then, Fran looked at Iris on the other side who was checking the specific work requirements normally.

No matter what, Fran estimates that she will never leave Number Nine Floating City before taking action against Sky Dragon.

Because Iris showed no intention of leaving temporarily even despite the dissuasion of Alva, and seemed to want to fully participate in this operation.

Fran can only follow Iris and stay on Number Nine Floating City.

"By the way, the picture of my Star Gazing Art will definitely happen, so does this mean that Sky Dragon will notice the arrival of Floating City and then run away?"

Fran remembered another thing, and that was her own Star Gazing Art - the picture she saw through Star Gazing Art now will inevitably happen.

"Then, is Alchemy School prepared to hunt down Sky Dragon who is running away at full speed, or is it necessary to take advantage of Sky Dragon's unpreparedness to keep him?"

From what Fran saw in Star Gazing Art, Sky Dragon was flying very fast. She didn't know if Floating City was moving at that time, but she must have been unable to keep up with Sky Dragon's speed.

No matter how well prepared Alchemy School is, if you can't catch up with Sky Dragon, then isn't your preparation in vain?

Fran frowned, knowing that he seemed to have predicted an incredible message.

"Sky Dragon will definitely be aware of Number Nine Floating City's approach, and he will stay far away."

If Sky Dragon hid in Ocean, wouldn't Alchemy School just be dumbfounded? They didn't dare to drive Number Nine Floating City onto Ocean.

After knowing that Sky Dragon will definitely do this, if Floating Isle is forced to retreat first, then Sky Dragon will only be able to avoid Ocean, right?

If the layout is based on this point, then Sky Dragon will be useless no matter how fast it is.

Fran now possesses this very crucial information, but she seems to have no reason to tell it, and it is difficult for other mages to believe it.

"Perhaps Alchemy School has long been prepared to hunt down Sky Dragon remotely, or has planned an ambush on Sky Dragon's retreat." She hoped that would be the case.

Otherwise, if Sky Dragon really escapes, all the preparations Alchemy School has made for so many days will be in vain.
