Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons

Morning

Lion City

Kane and his companions woke up early and left their rooms before heading to the Teleportation Station to arrive at the Heteris Kingdom.

Having arrived at the kingdom's national capital, Kane and his group didn't linger but directly entered the Imperial Capital's Teleportation Station, treating it as a transit point for their next destination.

"I can't go on, let me catch my breath."

On a desolate high mountain, at the edge teleportation station of a vast teletransportation network, Kane appeared and collapsed right on the teleportation platform.

It wasn't just Kane; even Kreya and the others looked pale and had purple lips.

The only person in the team who was in good condition was Lilulu, as the teleportation seemed to have no effect on her; she still wore a cheerful smile.

They helped each other to nearby chairs to rest and soothe their dizzy minds.

Consecutive long-distance teleportations made them feel as if they were being spun crazily in a washing machine.

Kane felt as if his brain was evenly shook, feeling that the entire world was spinning around him now.

Nonetheless, they had arrived at their intended destination for this teleportation, which was a mountain platform within the Shukeen Mountain Range.

The Shukeen Mountain Range had a powerful magic power magnetic field that blocked the teleportation network from the west to the north.

The next dungeon they needed to reach, Demon Valley, was located in the northern regions of the world.

The quickest way to cross the Shukeen Mountain Range now was to take an airship from the mountain platform here.

Of course, there were many other modes of transportation and methods to cross this mountain range, but taking an airship was the fastest.

After resting for a while, Kane and his companions finally regained their normal complexion.

Now Kane had the time and energy to look around and observe the landscape of the area.

There were various caves of different sizes around the mountain peak, and buildings clustered and established along the mountain.

In the skies surrounding the mountain, various airships came and went, as the number of people wishing to cross the Shukeen Mountain Range daily was countless.

This mountain was hence named Airship Mountain, and the clusters of buildings around Airship Mountain and airship docking places were called Airship Town.

Most of the residents here were engaged in airship-related work as either onboard service staff or airship construction and maintenance personnel.

The airship Kane and his companions needed to take was also located here.

Under guidance from nearby personnel, they proceeded toward their targeted airship.

As the entire town was constructed around various platforms at the mountain top, even relying on cliffs, the surrounding roads were steep, with substantial ups and downs.

Such road conditions were indeed challenging for Kreya.

Thus, Kreya sat entirely on Cotton Candy, letting Cotton Candy carry her forward.

After passing several elevators up and down, Kane and his group finally arrived at another expansive platform on the mountain peak.

This platform was constructed as a large airship landing field.

Gazing across, about a dozen airships were parked on the wide platform.

Airships were occasionally landing as well.

Following guidance from service personnel nearby, Kane and his companions reached the airship they were to board.

This airship was the largest among the surrounding ones, with a cabin suspended beneath a sky-covering gasbag like a ship.

Following instructions, Kane and his group stored their weapons and lined up to enter the cabin.

This time, there were very few explorers traveling with them; according to Kane's perception, only a few individuals had magic power reactions, and none were in teams, all alone.

The rest were ordinary people, as the world was still primarily composed of ordinary people who didn't wish to risk their lives frequently.

Not many were willing to sacrifice their lives for power and wealth as one might imagine.

People preferred to lead calm lives.

With the emergence of dungeons, large-scale conflicts had almost ceased in the world, and most ordinary people lived in a peaceful and tranquil environment.

After boarding the airship, they arrived at their room.

Unlike a cruise ship, the airship did not offer much space for use.

Even though Kane purchased the largest airship and in the best location, the space allotted to everyone was still cramped, sufficient only for basic rest.

Moreover, this journey was set to take three days and two nights.

It seemed that this trip would be a bit uncomfortable.

After setting up their resting space for the next few days, Kane and his team gathered on the platform outside the cabin.

Undoubtedly, the scenery surrounding the airship was indeed beautiful.

Airship Mountain was a relatively high peak in the mountain range, and from there, one could get an unobstructed view of the surrounding scenery.

Moreover, due to the airship's navigation and various observation needs, clouds were dispersed, allowing for unobstructed views of the surroundings with the naked eye without any clouds obstructing them.

Longbei leaned on the platform railing, looking at the surroundings, exclaiming, "Come to think of it, this is actually my first time on an airship, quite a novel experience."

Not to mention him, all members of the team were experiencing an airship ride for the first time.

"My favorite was always the railcars shuttling through various mine tunnels. By the way, have you ever taken a railcar?"

Longbei noticed his teammates shaking their heads, and continued, "That feeling can truly be amazing, once we get a chance, I'll definitely take you all to experience it."

"Kreya, do you know anything about the Sizz Empire?"

Kane turned to Kreya beside him and asked.

Regarding Kane's question, Kreya shook her head.

At this moment, Yoyo slid by Kane's feet: "Yoyo knows, I just recorded information about this place a few days ago."

Having stayed at Kreya's home for a while, Yoyo had sifted through most of the library collections there.

Seeing everyone turn their heads and listen, Yoyo began the narration.

"Sizz Empire, a monarch-based nation located outside the northern eternal frozen tundra. The principal ethnic group of the country comprises the Sizz people, a human subspecies possessing robust physiques that can withstand the winter's harshness, which are taller than average humans."

While Yoyo was still narrating, an announcement was heard from the airship.

"The airship is about to take off, passengers on the external platform, please return to your positions and fasten your seatbelts."

Upon hearing the announcement, everyone returned to their resting areas.

Just as Kane lay on the small bed in his resting space, a voice appeared in his ears.

"By the way, Kane, how long will this voyage take?"

Of course, even within their resting spaces, they still communicated in the team channel using the ruby lapel pin on their collars.

"Didn't I tell you? It will take three days and two nights."

"We have to stay in this tiny space for so long!"
