I gained immortality in Full-Time Magician

Chapter 60, Wind-type is a bit fragrant, life is fragrant!

The check at the Shanghai airport was quite lenient for Jiang Shang and his hunters; they were only checked for their identification documents before being allowed to pass.

After all, for an airport, the most likely cause of damage is actually a mad wizard, not the items the wizard is carrying.

In a world where power resides within oneself, the greatest danger comes from the passengers themselves.

So after checking that they had no criminal record, the staff at Shanghai airport easily let them through.

Following Lang Xiuhai, Jiang Shang and the others were taken directly to the VIP room. Looking at the magnificent scene before him, Jiang Shang felt like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden, finding everything fascinating.

"To be honest, I don't think I've ever been on an airplane since I transmigrated here. I wonder how airplanes here can bypass the airspace controlled by demons?" Jiang Shang thought to himself.

After everyone entered the VIP lounge, Lang Xiuhai took out a map and spread it on the table in the center of the lounge, inviting everyone to gather around. Lang Xiuhai's map was drawn strictly according to the hunter's map, and it marked the distribution density of monsters.

This is the most important thing for a mage hunter; venturing into a place with an extremely high density of demons is almost certainly a matter of life and death!

"Our plane is landing at Wuqiao Airport in Yunyang City, which is nearly 100 kilometers away from Enshi Grand Canyon. We can only buy an off-road vehicle locally and drive there."

"After gathering information over this period of time, I have confirmed that before heading to Enshi Grand Canyon, we need to pass through the Nightmare Desert. The winds there are withering winds that can easily steal moisture from our bodies, and most importantly, they contain Nightmare Spirits. However, now that Xuandu has joined us, they are no longer a threat."

"Further on, we'll enter directly from the mountain peaks near the small gate. We'll need to go around a sheer cliff and pass through an incense stick's width of ground to reach the Cloud Dragon Crevice!"

"The dust storm giant lizard tribe living in the Enshi Grand Canyon is the key area we need to deal with on this trip. Before we reach the Yunlong Ground Fissure, we need to do our best not to disturb them."

“…………”

Just as Jiang Shang and his group were discussing the details of entering the Enshi Grand Canyon, a VIP lounge attendant knocked on the door and entered the room to remind them that it was time to board, immediately pulling them back from their conversation.

"Let's go, board the plane, we'll talk about the rest when we get to Yunyang City," Lang Xiuhai said.

Led by the staff, Jiang Shang and his entourage boarded the plane ahead of time via the VIP channel.

After entering the plane, Jiang Shang found that the interior decoration of the entire plane was almost the same as that he had seen in his previous life, except that there were fewer seats and the plane was more spacious. The rest of the space was used to place materials that could block the detection of demons.

Looking further inside, there is a reserved seat at the emergency exit in the middle of the plane, where a man wearing a black trench coat is currently sitting.

The man smiled and nodded when he saw Jiang Shang and his group.

After Jiang Shang and his group were seated in the first-class cabin at the front of the plane, Liang Shaokang, who was sitting next to him, explained, "The person sitting at the emergency exit was a high-level wind mage. His role was to drive away flying demons encountered during the flight. However, our planes generally fly at an altitude of around 6,000 meters. Apart from a few types of avian demons, most commander-level demons can't fly that high. If we do encounter one, that's when he comes in handy."

"Oh, I see. His salary must be very high!"

"Annual salary, 100 million a year!"

Holy crap! A small goal every year!

The wind element is being way too popular!

Liang Shaokang, seemingly noticing Jiang Shang's shock, explained, "Aside from military service, a typical high-level elemental mage earns around 80 million a year, the exact amount depending on the missions they receive. However, the random mages on airplanes are responsible for drawing away demons to protect the aircraft from attack. These demons, aside from a few specific types, are mostly commander-level monsters. Often, random mages find it extremely difficult to escape. Therefore, for these high-level mages who risk their lives, 100 million isn't much!"

After listening to Liang Shaokang's explanation, Jiang Shang suddenly understood.

It turns out that being a random mage is a job that relies heavily on luck. If you're lucky, you might fly around for a year without encountering any monsters, and you can make money effortlessly. But if you're unlucky, doing this job can be deadly!

However, if you encounter a demon of the highest rank and manage to escape from its clutches, is that considered good luck or bad luck?

As for why we don't use a super-level mage as a random mage, you can tell from the name that even if they're super-level, one hundred million wouldn't be enough.

They must earn billions every year!

Waaaaaah!!

The excessive weight during takeoff pulled Jiang Shang back from his thoughts.

"We've taken off!" Jiang Shang thought to himself.

He then leaned his head against the window on his left and looked outside, wanting to know how an engineless plane could take off.

Countless cyan patterns were painted on the wings of the aircraft, constantly transmitting wind magic to provide the entire aircraft with an upward lift.

If you tilt your head slightly, you can also see these cyan patterns engraved on the fuselage of the aircraft. In addition, there are red and purple patterns that constantly shimmer among the cyan patterns.

Seeing these patterns, Jiang Shang knew that the aircraft's design was "random" again, and it was probably powered by energy provided by magic stones.

After a period of rambling thoughts, Jiang Shang closed his eyes to conserve his energy, knowing he would be busy once he arrived at Wuqiao Airport.

........................

An hour later, Jiang Shang and his entourage disembarked at Wuqiao Airport.

After collecting his luggage, Lang Xiuhai went to the largest car dealership in the vicinity and bought an SUV worth around 4 yuan in cash to use as his mode of transportation.

For a team of only four people, this tool is more than enough.

The reason why we don't use horses or camels for transportation is that once we enter the dry wind region, all the organisms lose water, so using horses would be too detrimental.

After being questioned by the border guards, the group drove out of Yunyang City and proceeded along an inconspicuous ancient official road.

It is said that before the Enshi Grand Canyon was occupied by that demon, it was used as a summer palace for an ancient dynasty. This official road was built at that time. Unfortunately, since its arrival, the area around the Enshi Grand Canyon has become a paradise for demons.

Even after it was suppressed, many treasure hunters flocked to it in search of the former emperor's treasure.
