The flagship of the Twilight Fleet is an Arctic-class battleship powered entirely by spirit stones. Fleet Commander Zhao Ke stood at the bow of the ship, pointing to the bustling port in front of him with high spirits, and said to the old man next to him:
"Great Elder, we are here! Ahead is Changshan Port, which belongs to Dayang Group. It is currently the largest port in Fertile Continent and Taotu Continent."
The great elder from the Zhulong Continent and the Zhenwu Sect looked forward quietly, his expression seemed very calm, but deep in his eyes, there was indescribable shock.
Since last night, we have been able to see the so-called Changshan Port. There is a brilliant colorful light pillar, shooting straight into the sky like a backward rainbow.
At this time, I finally saw the so-called Changshan Port, which was more magnificent than I imagined!
Since Zhulongzhizhou snatched a 10,000-ton warship and more than 1,800 prisoners on board from the Xiaoyao Sect, the Great Elder also interrogated it and had a preliminary impression of that hostile and unknown world.
Among the information obtained during the interrogation, the one the Great Elder heard about the most was the Dayang Group, and the port where everyone started to explore Xianshan was Changshan Port, which was affiliated with the Dayang Group.
Changshan Port, a port full of legends.
Among all the interrogation materials, the one that impressed the elder the most was someone describing Changshan Port like this: It is the starting point of the new world, where the land ends, and where the sea begins!
It was from Changshan Port, nine years ago, that the first warship made entirely of steel crossed the open sea and broke the insurmountable limit.
Then, the whole world began to develop explosively.
The moment he learned this information, the Great Elder even felt a little regretful: Our large airship has long been able to cross the open sea.
But soon, when the elder looked at the captured steel battleship, he had to think rationally: the flying boat was expensive to build, even more expensive to use, and equally expensive to maintain, and it had no potential for commercial exchanges at all.
It is precisely because of the interrogation and the previous defeat that the Great Elder has a strong yearning for this fertile land, the Ocean Group, etc.:
I¡¯m going to have a look, look at the world, and ask why we failed! Of course, we also want to see this unknown world that we have heard about for the first time!
It was with this underlying idea that after learning that the Twilight Fleet had arrived at the Candle Dragon Continent, the Great Elder actually went to receive the fleet in person and promised trade and transactions on the spot!
This was something Zhang Hao didn¡¯t even expect. Zhang Hao never imagined that things could develop like this. And now, the great elder of Zhulong Continent and Zhenwu Sect has come in person!
Three years ago, the Great Elder led the masters from the Zhulong Continent and the masters from the Kuodixiang World to fight to the death, and now they are coming to 'study'.
As the battleship approached, Zhao Ke suddenly pointed to a figure on the shore and said: "That is our president Zhang Hao. This year, Mr. Zhang should be 27 years old. I didn't expect that Mr. Zhang would have time to come and greet him in person."
Great Elder:
I always feel that what you said is a bit awkward - is it noble to greet you in person? However, I was still a little shocked.
Is it this young man who single-handedly opened up the sea voyage and directly caused the disaster in the Zhulong Continent? And led to the destruction of Fairy Mountain?
When returning, the battleship also passed by the Fairy Mountain, only to find that the barrier there had disappeared, and all the previous battleships and so on had also disappeared, and everything was gone. Zhao Ke then contacted the fleet ahead via telegram and learned the general situation.
In the next few days, the Twilight fleet caught up with the Fairy Mountain Exploration fleet, and the great elder's heart was completely cold; but soon he was also a little shocked - among the people in the Fairy Mountain Exploration team, there were everyone, including many loudmouths; After learning about the situation in the Immortal Mountain, the Great Elder was a little confused for a while.
Co-author: The 'god' we have worshiped for countless thousands of years turned out to be some kind of artificial intelligence tool; and the fairy temples and so on before were all deceptions, and the benefits, mainly the transformation of the body, etc., were all from the 'machine' Effect.
The warship slowly docked. On the shore was a row of towering tower cranes, lifting containers one by one. Now many large merchant ships have begun to use container transportation.
Low-grade medicinal materials and precious ores from the Taotu Continent, as well as spiritual materials, cloth, and swords made of steel exported from the Ocean Group, have all begun to be transported in containers.
As soon as the battleship docked, Zhang Hao, under the protection of Fu Yun and others, took the initiative to fly to the bow of the ship and walked towards the old-looking elder.
? ?This is the first 'official' meeting between the two. More than three years ago, Zhang Hao saw the Great Elder from a distance, but at that time, Dayang Group's first exploration of the Fairy Mountain failed, and Zhang Hao finally "shifted his strategy."
About three meters apart, the two looked at each other and looked at each other.
In the eyes of the great elder, although the young man in front of him looks calm and gentle, he has an indescribable bearing - not the bearing of a king, but more like a 'sage' and a civilized guide. This young man There seems to be a bit of otherworldly aura about the person, as if the aura of an immortal?
??Also, in the eyes of the great elder, Zhang Hao is approachable and does not have the indifference of ordinary kings or sages. There is another kind of 'businessman' atmosphere in Zhang Hao.
And Zhang Hao is also observing this great elder. The indirect collision between the two began three years ago. It¡¯s just that Zhang Hao¡¯s shameful ¡®strategic shift¡¯ happened back then. But later it was proved that the original strategic shift was correct, and now we have demolished all the fairy mountains.
Well, Zhang Hao looked at it very carefully. The great elder looked very old, and he felt like he could find a place to bury him at any time. He doesn't have the aura of a strong man, he just looks like a bad old man.
However, this bad old man¡¯s eyes were extremely bright, and they felt like mirrors. Zhang Hao actually saw his own reflection in these eyes. This is not an exaggeration, but I really saw it. It was as if those were not eyes, but a pair of crystal beads.
This elder¡¯s dress is very simple, and the clothes he wears seem to be very casual. There is no ¡®low-key luxury¡¯, he is purely low-key and simple.
Zhang Hao already knew: this great elder is by no means simple, he is a ¡®truly wise¡¯ person. This kind of person doesn't care about appearance, but is thoughtful and has a clear purpose.
Although Zhang Hao still doesn¡¯t know the specific situation of the Twilight Fleet¡¯s exploration of the Candle Dragon Continent, based on bits and pieces of previous telegrams, Zhang Hao can sort out the general situation - this Great Elder is not simple.
It is not easy for a person to put down his hatred and talk about cooperation with his enemies.
"Then Zhang Hao looked at the people behind the great elder. Most of these people's eyes were vaguely filled with hatred.
The two of them observed each other for almost thirty seconds before Zhang Hao finally spoke, "I, Zhang Hao, on behalf of Dayang Group, welcome the arrival of the Great Elder. Please."
The great elder forced a smile on his face and said, "Mr. Zhang, I have been a close friend of you for a long time. Oh, by the way, you can understand what I am saying. I learned a lot from your people on the way here."
"The great elder's pronunciation is very standard." The smile on Zhang Hao's face became a little more sincere. Language is the best communication tool. This great elder actually learned the language of Kuodi Xiang, etc., and immediately gained Zhang Hao's favor.
Visiting other civilizations and learning their language in advance is a form of basic respect. Of course, this presupposes that it is within the scope of normal communication; if it is hostile communication and the strong oppresses the weak, that is a different matter.
Zhang Hao asked the elder to get off the boat. There was already a luxurious motorcade waiting on the shore.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Please get on the vehicle and the team will head towards Ninghe City. Along the way, the waiter sitting next to the great elder skillfully introduced the landscape outside the window to the great elder:
That is a lighthouse, that is a railway and a locomotive, that is the headquarters of the Zhang family, not open to the public, that is an overpass to facilitate transportation; this is Changshan City, a complete port city, which has only developed rapidly in the past five or six years. of¡¡
But when he arrived in Ninghe City, the elder¡¯s mouth opened wide unconsciously.
"The tallest building is the Dayang Group headquarters, 588 meters high; the other buildings are"
The motorcade finally stopped at the headquarters of the Blue Ocean Hotel, and Zhang Hao came forward again, "Great Elder, you will take a break here today, and these waiters will stay with you to show you around. I will give you a refreshment in the evening. If there¡¯s anything else, let¡¯s talk about it tomorrow.¡±
"Okay! The great elder nodded. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
