The Mysterious World Under Steampunk - Chapter 1827
Compared with the notes about the city in the underground world recorded by the scholar who died in the Shepherds, the second note Leo read surprised him even more, because the person who recorded this note used the Velen World Sigma Kingdom Language, and the first page of the note is the name and identity of the owner of the note, Earl Morek Ranko.
Earl Morek Ranko is very famous in the nautical history of the world of Velen, but his fame is not a good reputation, because the nickname corresponding to his reputation is Ranko the Eternal Loser.
For anyone who knows the history of the world’s voyages in Velen, as long as he mentions Earl Morek Ronco, he will definitely mention Earl Drake of the Kingdom of England, because almost all the deeds of Morek Ronco are related to pirates. Earl Drake related.
At that time, the Kingdom of Sigmar and the Kingdom of England were competing for the supremacy of the sea, and the navies of the two sides often clashed. Morek often served as the background board of the pirate Earl Drake, and became Captain Drake again and again in large and small naval battles. This is why Morek has such an extremely bad reputation as an eternal loser.
However, everyone who is familiar with the history of navigation knows that Earl Morek Rancor is not a mediocre person. On the contrary, as long as he does not meet Captain Drake, then Earl Morek can definitely be called the world of Velen. The model of the navy, except for the defeat with Drake, other enemy navies and privateers who fought against Earl Morek, etc., were all defeated by Earl Morek’s fleet without exception.
It is no exaggeration to say that because of Earl Morek’s astonishing record, even though the kingdom of Sigmar failed in the sea battle with the kingdom of England for the pirate supremacy, it could still fight against the kingdom of England for a long time. The kingdom is equal, and there is no shortage of power and benefits that it should have.
In addition, unlike Earl Drake, Earl Morek Ranco is not only an excellent admiral, but also a rigorous oceanographer. At that time, he completed the research on ocean currents in various ocean areas of Velen, including the Sea of Falling Stars. , and based on these research data, the ocean current map of the world of Velen was drawn, which played a very important role in the later development of navigation in the world of Velen.
In addition, he is also a biologist, and compiled the first biological encyclopedia in Velen World, from land and sea, from plants to animals. Although some places are wrong, and the content itself is not complete, its value is still huge , and even included in the relevant encyclopedia by the medical school.
It’s just that, unlike Earl Drake who was able to enjoy his old age in the Kingdom of England, Earl Morek Lanke disappeared during a daily cruise in the third year after he was canonized as Earl by the Kingdom of Sigmar.
At that time, Earl Morek led his fleet to conduct a two-month cruise on the route controlled by the Kingdom of Sigmar in accordance with the regulations, protecting the Sigma merchant ships sailing on the route, and the route he was in charge of was an old route. Each stop is guarded by Sigmar soldiers, and three naval poles have also been set up, which is the safest of all the sea routes of the Kingdom of Sigmar. Almost no one would think that any ship of the Kingdom of Sigmar would have an accident on this route.
However, unexpectedly, Earl Morek, the most outstanding admiral of the Kingdom of Sigmar, had an accident on this route, and not only one ship had an accident, but twenty-four ships in the entire fleet had an accident at the same time. Disappeared on this route.
Afterwards, the Kingdom of Sigmar immediately sent people to investigate, and at the same time launched an attack on the Kingdom of Engel, because at that time, the Kingdom of Engel was the only country in the entire Vilen world capable of destroying a fleet of the Kingdom of Sigmar. The Kingdom of England attacked this fleet in a surprise attack, and it is certain that the person who did this is definitely Earl Drake.
However, after investigation, it was found that when Earl Moreck’s fleet had an accident, Earl Drake was accompanying the British ambassador on a routine visit to the Faran Empire, and every fleet of the Kingdom of England was not near that route. , the possibility of it being able to attack Earl Morek is almost zero.
Therefore, later, some people speculated that Earl Morek’s fleet might have encountered a super storm, so the entire fleet was destroyed by the storm, but the Kingdom of Sigma quickly calculated the approximate time of Earl Morek’s accident through the final supply position of the fleet. Where is the sea area, and although there were some storms in that sea area during the time when Earl Morek’s accident happened, those storms were not big, let alone overturning large ships like battleships, even ordinary fishing boats may be very difficult. Hard to blow over.
The Kingdom of Sigma then sent a large number of civilian and military ships to search, mainly to search for the remains of the ship. After all, it was an accident with the entire fleet. If it was attacked, there would definitely be a large number of ship remains floating on the sea. As long as the remains of the remains were found , you can roughly infer what happened.
But it turned out that there were no remains of ships in that sea area, and the entire sea area was very clean, so clean that even the fish in the sea were very scarce.
After a long period of fruitless investigation and a large amount of money spent, the Kingdom of Sigmar had to stop the investigation, and the whereabouts of Earl Morek became one of the many unsolved mysteries in the world of Velen.
However, now that Leo saw the note in his hand, it became the clue and evidence to unravel the mystery of Earl Morek’s disappearance.
There is no doubt that this notebook belongs to the Earl of Morek, because the earl of Morek’s family crest is printed on the leather cover of the notebook, and the personal motto of the Earl of Morek is also written on the inside page, “the wind never stops, the ship does not stop” .
This notebook is not Earl Morek’s nautical notes, but his life notes, so there is no record in this notebook of how Earl Morek came to this world, but in the notes Earl Morek From time to time, he will write some past events, just like an old man recalling the past time, and in these fragmented memories, he mentioned two things, one is the gray fog, and the other is the ghost in the gray fog. Huge monster.
There is only one sentence about the gray fog, that is, he himself felt that the days of wandering in the gray fog had tempered his will and enabled him to survive the subsequent ordeals.
From the content of this sentence, it is not difficult to understand that Earl Morek’s life in this world is very bad, and it can even be described as suffering, and the only way he can deal with it is to rely on a strong will, which means that he is suffering During the ordeal, I am afraid that there is no one around, and only him is left.
As for the giant monster in the gray fog, he recorded a little more detail. He seemed to recall the experience of his fleet being attacked by a huge monster in the fog, and he deeply regretted being a deserter at that time, and swore an oath afterwards If he could do it all over again, he would definitely stay and fight side by side with his companions and subordinates.
Undoubtedly, it is not difficult to see from this passage that his fleet was probably destroyed by a huge monster in the gray mist, but he did not write down the shape of that monster in his notes, but he should remember the huge monster in the gray fog What kind of monster is it? Otherwise, when he was recording this text, his hands would not have been shaking so much. Obviously, his heart was still affected by the huge monster at that time, and he had fear enough to affect his physical condition. mood.
In addition to these two contents related to gray fog, there is also a content that is suspected to be related to the underground world. His content mainly describes an outsider. In his eyes, this outsider is very tall, taller than ordinary people Most of the body, and the skin is pale, and it emits a faint light at night.
This outsider was to participate in a sacrificial ceremony, and he left that night. From the attitudes of the people around him, it was not difficult to see that this outsider was extremely respected, and some people even worshiped him as a god.
In his notes, Morek recorded the name of the indigenous tribe he lived in. From the pronunciation, it is not difficult to judge that it should be a tribe of the Paho tribe. His identity in the tribe is a witch doctor, because he is proficient in herbal medicine and knows a lot Medical knowledge, so it can be regarded as in line with his ability.
He has no record of why he lived in the Paho tribe, and was able to obtain a not-so-low status in the Paho tribe.
However, it can be judged from some details in the notes that he had lived in the Paho tribe for a long time at that time, and even formed a new family there and had offspring. This made Leo feel that maybe some Paho tribe now The descendants of Earl Morek in this tribe are still multiplying.
Although this notebook from Earl Morek doesn’t have much useful content, this notebook can also be used as new evidence of the connection between the world of Velen and the current world.
However, Leo also thought that there might be more Earl Morek’s notes in Joe’s hands, even Earl Morek’s navigation notes, and that navigation note also very likely recorded Earl Morek’s journey from Viking Lun disappeared from the world and came to this world.
Thinking of this, Leo had an urge to find Joe immediately, and then **** all the information in Joe’s hands to check.
In the end, Leo suppressed the urge. He felt that there was no need to be too anxious. When he had more contact with Joe, the information in Joe’s hand would naturally fall into his own.
The night passed quickly, and the pioneering group went back on the road. Although the senior management of the pioneering group felt that there might be no more attacks on the road, the officers of the pioneering group still chose to treat it cautiously, not only letting soldiers Always maintain a state of vigilance, and even let some ordinary people wear weapons, and even a consultant scholar like Leo was assigned a machete.
In addition, in order to make the convoy more convenient to drive, those who died in the hands of the blood wolf tribe yesterday, except for a few people with special identities who were put on the carriage and transported to the pioneer camp for burial, the other corpses were all placed in the whole place. In the jungle next to the road, no pits were even dug, which made the pioneers feel extremely embarrassed, and the overall morale fell to the bottom. If it was not very clear that fleeing into the jungle would undoubtedly lead to death, perhaps many people in the pioneering team had escaped up.
The subsequent road was safe and sound, and the pioneering group arrived at the forward camp of the pioneering group established in Matou Bay.
There are 3,000 soldiers stationed in this camp all year round. These soldiers are not used to open up the colony, but are formed as the reserve army of Matouwan, and the founder is the governor of Matouwan.
Although it was announced that these fighters were recruited for the Kingdom of Root to open up colonies, in fact, people who understand why are very clear. Matouwan took control of this 3,000-man army that was not under the control of the Root Kingdom.
When the pioneering group arrived at the camp, there was a small accident. The camp officer said that he had not received an order for the pioneering group to be stationed in the camp, while the pioneering group said that the Governor’s Mansion had sent someone to send an order a few days in advance. Both sides Immediately there was a stalemate here. In the end, the pioneering team took out a pioneering order signed by the Governor’s Mansion, proving that they were indeed a pioneering team formed by the Governor’s Mansion, and the camp allowed the pioneering team to enter the camp, but only designated one for the pioneering team. The scope of the camp, and the people of the pioneering group are not allowed to walk around in the camp.
Although this camp rooted deep in the jungle is just a wooden camp, after several expansions and repairs, the defense strength of the entire camp is better than that of Matou Bay. There are three layers of protective walls from the periphery to the middle, each side The protective walls are five or six meters high, and there are a large number of defensive fortifications built at both ends of the protective wall, and many defensive weapons are stored in various warehouses, which can be used at any time.
The place where the pioneering group was stationed was supposed to be an open space for the camp to take care of the prisoners. This open space was a separate area in the outlying camp, surrounded by walls, and there was only one door to enter and exit. When the pioneering group was stationed here, there were also guards on the surrounding walls, which seemed to be guarding against the pioneering group.
It is not difficult to see from the various actions of the high-level leaders in the camp that even if the development team produced the governor’s development order, it still could not dispel the suspicion of the high-level leaders in the camp, because according to the normal process, before the development team set off, Matou Bay needs to send Someone sent a corresponding reception order, and there is not only one person in charge of delivering the letter, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com is a small team of ten fighters. Even if such a small team encounters any danger in the jungle, at least some people can escape, but now there is no order in the camp, and the Matou Bay side But if the order was really sent, there is only one possibility, and that is that the ten soldiers who delivered the letter were all lost in the jungle.
In this regard, the senior management of the camp tentatively believed this statement, but still remained vigilant, and planned to send people back to Matou Bay tomorrow to understand the situation. Although it would waste a lot of time, compared to the camp being breached, All the soldiers in the camp were lost, so it was not so important to waste some time.
Just when the high-level camp made what they thought was the wisest decision, the officers and generals of the pioneering regiment were extremely annoyed by the arrangement of the high-level camp. After the camp order was issued, these people gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
Some of these people don’t know whether they are really brainless or have ulterior motives. When they saw that everyone was angry at the rudeness of the camp’s high-level officials, they intentionally or unintentionally raised the idea of finding an opportunity to sneak attack the camp and occupy the camp. It’s a pity that there are only a small number of people like them. The proposal to sneak attack and occupy the camp was rejected without even discussing it. And under the guidance of the leader of the pioneering group, everyone’s topic shifted to how the pioneering group should go next. superior.
