Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 631: The Canal and the Silver Knight
In a world where chaos does not distinguish between upper and lower things.
A giant tree with the main body resembling a combination of red hemlock, ash, and banyan trees, propped up an infinite empty dome high. In the chaos, a unique place of order was created forcibly, called the order of "Creation".
Among the light green branches and leaves of the giant tree swaying, there are sparkling electric lights crackling in it. That is the spark of Ivan's extremely active thinking, and this space is his spiritual sea.
At this time.
Among the four worlds that make up the "World Tree", the roots and bottom trunks of the first two worlds, the "material world" and the "formation world", have been completely consolidated. In the upper tree trunk "Creation World", which played a role in linking up and down, a blue strange symbol was gradually formed under the control of Aiwen.
This is the fourth element "Compassion" that finally lights up after Ivan's mental power index reaches 6.7, and it is also the first element in the "world of creation".
Ring Ling Ling...
The crisp and sweet copper bells immediately echoed in the sea of consciousness, making the space of consciousness shrouded by this "tree of life" faintly solidified.
After another original quality is lit, the first to benefit is his two talented spells [Activating Aura] and [Bloodline Plug-in]. The strength of the former has increased again, while the number of "plug-ins" that can be equipped in the body at the same time has increased from two to three, making the enemy more abundant.
Up to now, only the fourth realm, the "Divine Realm", which represents the entire canopy part, is still illusory.
However, it seems that most of the task has been completed.
However, it has been almost a year since Ivan was promoted to the third-tier high-ranking wizard. Even with the benefits of "The Tree of Life", "Essence Fruit", and "Spiritual Exploration", he has gradually reached this step.
Compared with Tier 3 before, the speed of promotion has begun to slow down severely.
This is a step-by-step process, not to mention that it is a "truth concret", that is, how long it will take to reach the third-order limit. This can be seen from the three great wizards, mother-in-law Nymph, Princeton Headmaster, and adventurer Jeros.
"The best way is to explore unknown areas in the sea and gain the "world favor"."
With a soft sigh in his heart, Ivan slowly opened his eyes.
I saw my fiancee in silk pajamas, putting a lovely face next to my pillow, her big sapphire eyes flickering at her, and she didn't know how long she had been awake.
Olivia saw Alvin waking up, the probe pecked his lips lightly, sent a sweet greeting, and reminded me by the way: "Good morning, Alvin! Don’t forget that you want to The canal project started."
For powerful high-level transcendents, no matter whether their subjective consciousness is awake or not, let alone a person or an insect flying within the body's defense range, they will be easily perceived and reacted.
But now the vitality fields of the two people have long been intertwined with each other, seeing each other as part of each other's lives, and there is no defense between breathing and hearing.
Ivan in turn pecked the girl’s pink lips:
"Good morning, Hersie. Would you like to experience it together?"
"Okay, after the expansion of the cotton plantation and the spring plowing, it happens that I have nothing important at hand."
Today, it has been a week since the artillery fire demonstration that shattered the cognition of the two liaison officers. Anthony and Dilis were also arranged by Ivan to temporarily live in the Wizarding Tower in Falls Hill.
After the Tulips get rid of the internal troubles, the next is the critical moment for them to immerse themselves in their development, except for the need to continue to beware of the "Black Wing Order" tricks. Everyone knew that there would be a battle between one's own side and Hilius sooner or later.
This is also a crucial moment when Falitis can obtain "Sea Kingship".
In the case of a significant gap in overall military strength, improving quality is particularly important. Extraordinary forces are difficult to quickly and massively cultivate under normal circumstances, and ordinary weapons that can be mass-produced have become the key to counterattacks.
If the "Rocket Launcher" is used by pure mortals, there is no real fire control system (mind network) and extraordinary power to participate, only a fixed launch angle can be used, and the launch depends on the distance and heading of the ship to the target. , The accuracy is bound to be extremely poor.
But in the colony’s vast land warfare, it is bound to shine.
Ivan can already foresee that "Vulcan Metal Company" will have a soaring position in the kingdom's military industry system, and even stand out, eating the biggest piece of cake in the kingdom's military expansion.
This is still when he didn't take out the second kick (hurricane missile) with a range of 1,300 kilometers.
Report what you have seen and heard to the local area without subjective feelings. The work of the two liaison officers has been declared completed.
Recalling the kind of future war situation that Ivan described in the bottom of my heart, Dilis and Anthony are more concerned about what he called "vaccine knowledge."
Now that the school is growing, Irvine did not directly participate in this project personally. Instead, he called Kyle, a four-disciple obsessed with medicine, and led him to complete this project together with Dilis.
Starting from the operating mechanism of the human immune system, let him experience from the beginning what is meant by "teaching for each other",
In this process, Dilis is not needed as the main force to build a knowledge system of vaccines from scratch. As long as she undertakes part of the research topic as Anthony did, it is enough for her to meet the prerequisites for promotion.
......
In the afternoon, Buffalo, the northern territory of the Hou State, and the Abayachi Plateau in the west.
Boom! Boom! ...
Twitter...
Roar--!
Amid the huge roar, a thousand-meter-high mountain moved slowly in the forest, and birds and beasts rushed to flee like desperation along the way.
Even those powerful demonized creatures that run wild on weekdays are afraid that if they run a step slower, they will be trampled directly to death like a bug.
It took more than half a year [Super Giant Rock Golem·Mountain Giant], and finally it was completely restored by the power of the Aiwen School of Integration.
At this time, the rock golem is as high as a kilometer even if it is bent over. It is thick and thick like a mountain. The forest is like his clothes. The green trees and vines on his back are lush, and his body is covered with armor-like black. vine.
In the virgin forest where humans are extinct, even the tallest tree can only reach its calf.
Ivan, who is in the driving space inside the Golem, wears a [Manipulation Key] yellow sapphire pendant around his neck, extending his majestic mental field and combining it with the "mountain giant".
At this moment, he is the real "mountain giant", every step is shaking the mountain, even the tiger and the giant bear are just little ants.
However, Irving did not wantonly vent the terrifying power that can reach the fourth-order intensity by waving his hands at will, but carefully proceeded slowly along the route planned by the "Mind Network".
Crossing from east to west across the Abayachi Plateau in the west, the soil and rocks under his feet are easily separated like water waves, forming a wide man-made river.
"I personally moved the mountains and reclaimed the sea to lead the people's future livelihood. This great sentiment even touched my eyes with tears. I am Irvin Garriott not a saint, I am a saint at all! "
Ivan ignored the faint disgust on the faces of Olivia and Anqi who stood behind him, still intoxicated in his noble feelings.
No matter how rich he is, it is impossible for him to transfuse blood for the dilapidated new territory forever and feed nearly 200,000 people.
Buffalo must find its own pillar industry in a short time.
At this time, a traditional business activity "fur trade" naturally came into his sight.
In the past.
The colonists exchanged furs from the Atrians at a low cost. After being transported back to the local area for processing, a **** skin can increase in value by at least 1000%, or even more than 200 times the profit.
Not much worse than the gold and silver mines occupied by the Hilius.
According to the estimation by Chief Intelligence Officer Beth, in a 25 square kilometers forest in the central northern part of the New World, 5 black bears, 2 to 3 tigers, 2 to 3 wolves, 200 firebirds, and 400 white-tailed deer can survive. 20,000 gray squirrels.
It is conservatively estimated that there are at least 10 million beavers in the forest. Their annual reproduction rate is 20%, with an average of 4 to 20 per square kilometer. The **** skin was considered by the colonists as "the best commodity that could be found, bringing ready-made money to the local area."
There are about 40 million white-tailed deer living in the southern part of the forest. This type of deer is not only numerous, but also has amazing fertility. There are 6 deer with 4 females and 2 males, which can become 160 in 6 years.
To the west of the stretch of forest is an endless prairie. The most typical animal here is the bison, which can be seen from the western foot of the Appayachi Mountains to the plateau basin in the west.
The number of these buffalo herds is at least about 40 million, and it is very likely that the total number will reach 60 million. Even if Beth has a "God perspective", it can't be counted at all.
So.
Ivan plans to build a 584 kilometers long, 12 meters wide and 2 meters deep artificial canal "Al Canal" from Albany, the former capital of Buffalo on the middle reaches of the Hutson River, all the way west to Lake Eyre. Driving a flat-bottomed barge with a displacement of 75 tons.
With the help of "Mountain Giant", the estimated construction period is 10 days. If you change to a human, you won’t be able to repair it even for ten years, and the day lily will already be cold by then.
This canal will connect the six great lakes to the east coast, forming a convenient corridor that runs from east to west.
After it is opened, Ivan expects to be able to reduce shipping costs between the Midwest and East Coast by more than 95%.
At the beginning, Robert and William were worried that Buffalo's long shoreline might become a loophole in Buffalo's defense. But under the regular cleaning of the sister's "Sky Defense Line", Lake Eyre and Shining Lake were easily suppressed.
Moreover, the density of high-level organisms in the lake is far less than that of forests, and of course there are much less natural spirits that can turn into disasters.
Surface traffic is much safer than crossing land.
In addition, the fur trade also has the advantage of conducive to the operation.
For example, the weight of **** skin is relatively light, with an average of only about 1.5 pounds per piece. It is not large in size and easy to pack and transport. Compared with other large and heavy goods, the exchange value of fur is higher.
Compared with the demand for a large amount of labor in agricultural areas, the human and material inputs in the early stage of the fur trade do not need to be too large, which is exactly suitable for Buffalo, where the current population has suffered a lot of losses.
Ivan has planned to establish at least 76 fur trading posts in the Midwest.
In addition to the traditional Huron allies, McMick, Anasazi, Mogoron, Hohokan, Pueblo, Sioux, Cheyenne, Castells. .. Wait for hundreds of large and small tribes to establish trade ties.
As the spiritual tide raged, the living conditions in the mainland continued to deteriorate, and the large and small Atrian tribes scattered on this vast land were living in difficulties, and some even turned into isolated islands.
At this time, I need the warmth from Aiwen.
A lot of arms can not only be traded to Hilius, but the indigenous tribes in the interior are a huge market. It's not the first time he has made war money anyway, he is completely familiar with it.
In addition.
The fur trade is one of the few economic forms in the New World that can only be carried out by cooperation with the Atrians. This is clearly different from the agricultural frontier development model characterized by the occupation of Atrians~IndoMTL. com~ is also more conducive to Aiwen's future population assimilation plan.
Suddenly, An Qi, standing behind Ivan, let out an exclamation:
"That's... the silver knight of the Sark Empire's "Dawn Church"? Teacher, look north!"
From this area to the north is Hartson Bay (same as the Hartson River, discovered by the same adventurer Henry Hartson), and the immediate area is the colony of the Sark Empire, with one hundred The St. Lawrence collar with an area of 300,000 square kilometers.
Hear the words.
Ivan and Olivia looked north from the cab with a completely open view, and a group of silver knights on pegasus were passing across the northern sky.
"First, the kingdom's ‘Iron Wall Knight’, then Sark’s ‘Silver Knight’, how come these paladins have gathered together and ran to the New World?"
At the same time, the Silver Knight with a better view in the sky also discovered this majestic rock golem, turning the horse's head and galloping in this direction.
Hey--
