Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 877: Explore “Broken Xinghai”
In the 201st year of the Haiyuan calendar, lying in the known material world between the east and west storm zones, the last piece of virgin land that has not been conquered by humans-Broken Xinghai.
Three huge black shadows in the shape of a spindle with the flag of the Sark Empire "galloping cavalry knife" swept across the sky, and among a group of large lizards walking upright on their hind legs with steel scales, they dropped countless numbers representing death. Black spots.
Boom! Boom! Boom! ...
Shrapnel splashing, blazing flames, and lizard's hard scale armor and sharp minions are useless in front of the terrifying war machine.
In an instant, there were heavy casualties.
After the air raid, the ground forces began to advance strongly in a skirmish line formation.
At this time, in addition to the short flintlock rifle that can be used as an emergency at the waist, the main weapon in the soldier's hand has been replaced with a high-pressure power gun.
Boom! boom! boom! boom! ...
With a burst of fire, the deadly projectile exploded blood-colored flowers among the sparsely sparsely sparsely populated lizards.
哧——!
An extraordinary person wearing a full-body steel armor walked at the front of the team, with steam from the power hammer in his hand, transforming the blazing heat into surging kinetic energy, and slammed it on the head of a big lizard that slipped through the net.
Bone shattered brains burst on the spot!
Among the extraordinary powers around him, there are ordinary knights who follow the tradition and use extraordinary weapons and swordsmanship.
But more are [mechanical knights] wielding power axes, power hammers, chainsaw swords...and so on. They can use specific auxiliary power weapons to perform far beyond the human body and even the second-order physical side. Effect.
Boom.. Boom.. Boom..
However, the most eye-catching part of the pioneering team is not them, but the two alchemy giants who are more than two stories tall. They shook the mountain every step they took, and their momentum was terrifying.
On each of their necks sits a [steamer] wearing a windshield and gear jacket, and a giant coal stove is embedded in the middle of their chests, always emitting a dazzling fire.
It was a masterpiece of alchemy and modern science——【Giant Soldier·Melting Furnace Type I】, each of which was far more powerful than the official knight of the second-order peak, but it was... a mass-produced model.
Of these steam-age-style equipment, although many carry the emblems of "Steam and Machinery Cult" or "Vulcan Metal Company", there are also many other logos.
This illustrates a fact that makes Tulip people know whether they should be frustrated or pleased.
In the past few years, the steam industry, especially the military industry, seems to have ceased to be the leader of the Tulip Alliance, and countries have gradually begun to establish their own military industry systems.
Unlike civilian patents, patents are useless in the military field.
For example, [High Pressure Steam Gun] or [Iron Armored Ship], [Dreadnought-Class Battleship], if it is secretly copied after being analyzed.
Although there is a clear gap in the level of technology, this kind of behavior is beyond any legal provisions.
The only good news is probably that with the great popularity of steam creation, the power of Mennon Watt, the "god of steam and machinery", has increased again.
"Here, start!"
Huh--!
Under the command of a legal post, after finding the magic element node from the giant lizard’s nest, a group of soldiers severely smashed the [Earth Vein Seal Bolt, which can only be produced by the Principality of Galliot and the Palme d’Or Federation. ].
Although the expensive ones are dying, they can return the disordered geomagnetism, celestial phenomena, ocean currents, and wind directions back to the right track through the silent magic element, and simultaneously block the [dark side of the world], so that the evil spirits living in it can no longer run out casually .
Including islands and a large area of nearby sea areas have returned to normal.
Not only can airships, which are more afraid of extreme weather than sailing ships, be able to fly normally in this area. You can even immigrate slowly and transform it into a livable environment where ordinary people can live normally.
A geologist has finished the work at hand, waving a report sheet and laughing out loud:
"Hahaha, gold mine, there is a gold mine on this island, with a grade of 600g/ton, we are rich!"
Generally, the grade of gold in gold mines with industrial mining value is 2-3 g/ton, rich ore is 5-50 g/ton, and extra-rich ore is 50-500 g/ton.
You can imagine the value of this island.
The commander of this exploratory team couldn't help but shook his fist in excitement.
In the tide of the steam industrial revolution, the "Tulip Alliance" used the various raw materials, markets, and population of a huge colony to push itself, a small country, to the throne of the world's largest power.
Those latecomers who have also begun to vigorously develop the steam industry, the Sac Empire, Palme d’Or, Heymar...If they want to rise, the first choice is naturally to repeat the old way of tulips.
Continuously expand outwards, gain more land, more population, more raw materials, and more markets.
But now that the world is known to be saturated, they naturally set their sights on the tens of thousands of islands in the "Broken Star Sea".
Finally, two hundred years after the beginning of the great nautical era.
With so many years of colonial accumulation, the steam industrial revolution, and various technologies that cannot be derived from outsiders, the powerful nations have begun to systematically attack the "broken sea of stars".
In line with the principle of whoever occupies and owns, the official and powerful private development companies of various countries have launched a fierce competition in the entire "Broken Xinghai".
This sea has also unveiled its mystery to mankind on a large scale for the first time.
It contains the essence of millions of years in the past four epochs. Many places have been influenced by pre-epoch civilization or unique rules, and are full of various treasures.
For example, the high-yield crops, enchanted animals and plants, industrial raw materials, precious metals, gems, oil...etc. once harvested by Angel.
Some experts even predict that because of the special geographical environment, the various resources contained in the "Broken Star Sea" may top the entire known material world!
Huh--!
The steam propellers propel the three "rigid airships" at a speed of 24 kilometers per hour, which is equivalent to a ship's speed of 13 knots, making a circle around the island, preparing to fly to the nearby island for the next support mission.
It was found that on another island not far away, an airship team with the snowflake flag of the Kingdom of Atlan slowly floated into the sky.
In the previous battle for the Potosi silver mine~IndoMTL.com~Sack and Atlan could barely sign an agreement, but the Liangzi between the two countries was completely forged.
For an airship pilot, if he has the opponent's down record, he can get promoted and make a fortune by the way.
After the remote demonstration, the pilots of both sides were about to fire a few shots at each other to strengthen their luck.
A flying formation consisting of four airships didn't care about their daggers and swaggered past them.
Every airship has a very obvious coat of arms.
The blue shield in the middle is surrounded by silver crowned sea snakes, and the shields on the left and right sides are golden lions and emerald dragons, surrounded by a circle of emerald orange leaves and stars. At the top is a golden crown.
And on the bottom flag at the bottom is a motto: "Never-ending exploration".
Wait for the airship commanders of the Sark Empire and the Atlan Kingdom to see this coat of arms.
"Retreat!"
Wow! Whoosh! ....
I don't care about the enemies and merits of the country, let alone any drastic actions. Without hesitation, I just turned my head and left.
Just because this is the official pioneering team of the Duchy of Galliot!
Regardless of whether there are members of the Galliot family in it, just a family crest is enough for the commanders of both sides to recognize the reality.
Although one called an empire and another called a kingdom, but gave way to a mere principality, it was nothing shameful.
In this world, what determines the status of a country is never a title, but true strength!
However.
In this turbulent era, anything is possible.
The elites of all countries also have a dream called "World Hegemon", just like the Tulip Alliance successfully overthrew Hillius and crowned himself as the new king.
Of course you still have to dream about this thing. What if it comes true?
