The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 1433 415: Prince Who Conquered the Skies (Part 2)

James looked at the open-minded student, and the little guilt and regret in his heart was instantly replaced by a strong sense of emotion and resonance.

Indeed—

This is the true pursuit of those like them, the "outliers".

He almost forgot that he originally entered the Academic State just for the pure reason of chasing the Truth. How did he lose heart and forget this initial intention the moment he left the Academic State?

"I never thought there'd be a day when I would be taught by my student."

Looking at those eyes filled with purity, James showed a relieved smile. He took off his glasses, gently wiped them with a handkerchief, and then put them back on.

The moment he put on the glasses, his gaze became incredibly determined.

"So... shall we begin?"

"Alright!"

Alberto shouted excitedly and then eagerly jumped into the cabin, forcefully pulling down a brass-colored control lever.

Accompanied by a low rumble, the alchemy furnace beneath the cabin was instantly ignited, a scorching orange flame, like angry Dragon Breath, sprayed into the opening at the bottom of the airbag!

The huge airbag, which had originally sprawled limply in the snow like a deflated leather bag, began to emit a "ho-ho" breathing sound.

The leather was stretched tight, the wooden Dragon Bone emitting a tooth-grating "creak". It trembled, wriggled, as if an ancient beast awakening from slumber!

Under the breathless gaze of two engineers and countless apprentices, it slowly and steadily raised its massive body.

"It's moving! It's moving!" The artisan apprentice standing beside the airship shouted excitedly, his eyes glowing as if witnessing a miracle.

James was the same.

Although he didn't shout out loud, his heart was filled with shock. Probably even if Saint Sis descended before him, it wouldn't surprise him this much.

That was not the power driven by Magic—

Nor by the Divine!

They used a power that even mortals could touch, to let a ship originally only able to sail the seas rise to the sky!

The ropes of the airship stretched taut one by one, and after dragging for several meters on the snow, a slight friction sound came from the bottom of the gondola, and then it suddenly lightened.

This creation, primarily relying on natural wind and buoyancy rather than powerful Magic, rose slowly into the sky like a Giant breaking free from the earth's restraints, climbing into the clear blue sky!

"Hahahaha! Master! I'm flying!"

Hair tousled by the wind, Alberto leaned his head out of the porthole, letting out a childlike laugh of excitement. Only after being filled mouthfuls of wind did he obediently pull his head back, closed the porthole, and faced the dazzling array of control levers again.

"Let me see... it should be this one."

He tightly grasped the steering wheel, recalling the operation instructions attached at the foot of the blueprint page, like a captain on his maiden voyage, starting his life's first "drive".

He tentatively pulled the steering wheel to the left, and the bow of the airship suddenly dropped, turning at a precarious angle.

This scene made James standing in the snow miss a heartbeat and almost pull out his Magic Wand.

Saint Sis above—

If such a big ship really falls from the sky, his magic can't hold it up!

Seeing Alberto fooling around in the sky, he shouted loudly.

"Gentle! Alberto! Its Dragon Bone is still fragile!"

His voice couldn't reach that high place at all.

Unlike the anxious Professor James, Alberto in the high sky felt no fear, instead emitting an excited scream.

"Woohoo! This is so thrilling!"

He clumsily corrected the course and awkwardly adjusted the wing surfaces on both sides, incidentally testing all the components again.

The airship rocked in the sky, drawing a crooked arc like a drunken fat man.

Although the posture was awkward, it ultimately did not fall. Eventually, after reaching a certain height, it neared stability.

Alberto stared out the window at the ground, utterly mesmerized by the scene.

The houses of Artisan Street turned into exquisite models beneath them, while the distant High Tower of Academic State seemed within reach, like a lighthouse planted in the snowy plains...

The airship circled the snowy plains once, and after confirming all control systems could "respond", Alberto reluctantly began the descent.

The wide hull plowed a deep furrow in the snow, finally coming to a steady stop.

The burning furnace completely extinguished, and the airbag, hoisted by hot air, also relaxed. Along with it, James's heart lifted to his throat, and his right hand gripping the Magic Wand.

Saint Sis above...

It's fortunate no accident happened!

"We... we succeeded! Master! We succeeded!"

Alberto leapt down from the cabin excitedly, rushed towards James who was already waiting on the ground, and gave him a solid bear hug.

James too was red-faced with excitement, laughing and vigorously slapping his student's shoulder.

"Damn! You brat nearly scared me to death!"

Alberto chuckled and said.

"Hahaha! Didn't anything happen?"

The two middle-aged men, adding up to almost eighty years of age, were as excited as two kids who never grew up at this moment.

Including the surrounding group of artisan apprentices, who excitedly cheered for victory, whistling and high-fiving each other.

This was not only the success of an airship but also the best proof of the value of scholars and artisans like them who were sidelined by the mainstream academic community!
