The Mysterious World Under Steampunk - Chapter 1831

Although the fact that there is a passage in the underground world that can be connected with the Novat Continent and the New Continent made Bernando feel restless, but after thinking about it calmly, he found that this matter seemed to be of no value to him, because the Continental Passage This matter and the interests involved in it are too huge, let alone a nobleman of the coastal kingdom like him, even the Kingdom of Root may not be able to monopolize the interests in it, and the disputes caused by this matter must be It will be very big, and if you get too close to someone of his status, you may end up in a miserable end.

Therefore, not only can he not spread the fact that there may be a passage connecting two continents in the underground world, but he must avoid being spread, at least until he gets enough benefits, this matter must be kept secret.

Compared to the passage that would only bring him trouble, Bernando is more interested in the Mumu tribe and the underground tribe that Leo said, because both the Mumu tribe and the underground tribe are interested in Gold is very obsessed, using gold to make various ornaments and utensils, which obviously represents the existence of gold mines near these two indigenous tribes, and it is a gold mine that is easy to mine.

Bernando himself didn’t care much about gold mines, he cared more about the influence brought by gold mines.

Having rich experience in developing colonies, he is well aware of the difficulties in developing colonies. With the military power of the countries on the Novat continent, it is not particularly difficult to repel or drive away those indigenous tribes. What is really difficult is to drive out these indigenous tribes and establish How to attract and retain the people who migrated after setting up colonial settlements.

Many times in the past, the colony was built and a group of residents were successfully relocated. However, it didn’t take long for those residents to flee back to the Novat continent or other settlements along the coast of the New World. The colonies opened up were all abandoned and reoccupied by indigenous tribes.

The reason for this is that those colonial settlements are all deep in the jungle and are always in danger. They cannot successfully reclaim the wasteland, and there are no other interests that can attract other people to settle here, so they can only give up in the end.

Such examples of opening up colonies and then abandoning them have occurred continuously in the past few years, and it seems to have become a persistent problem in the colonial plans of various countries.

When Bernando formulated his current colonization plan, he had already considered how to consolidate the population of the colony and attract others to join his colonial settlement. The way he thought of was to use a special herb to attract people, then This kind of herbal medicine was discovered by him by accident. It can promote certain functions of men. As long as it is slightly processed and the toxins in the herbal medicine are stripped, it can be made into a pill that can be eaten by humans, and there are a lot of this kind of herbal medicine in the depths of the jungle. , is almost a costless business.

As long as you can gain a firm foothold in the depths of the jungle, build a workshop specializing in the production of this kind of pills, and announce a large number of attractive herb-gathering tasks, in this way, the population of the colony can be reduced for a long time. It will not be lost, and it can also attract some other people to join in, gradually consolidate the colonial point, and let it develop into a real town.

Although the plan is complete, it is not without loopholes. For example, this pill has not been promoted. It may take a long time for this pill to become popular in the Novat continent. He can rely on his own financial resources for maintenance. Once there is a shortage of funds, the colonies he controls will inevitably decline as quickly as the colonies developed by other countries.

In addition, this kind of pill is very simple to make, and the most critical part of removing toxins is not difficult. Once this kind of pill becomes popular in the mainland, there will inevitably be someone who studies the method of making this kind of pill, and he can’t stop it at all, so even if his The plan was successful, but the time given to him to eat the plan bonus will not be unlimited. It will take at most two or three years for the pill making method and raw materials to be cracked. In that case, he will return to the original point, so his plan The key is to stabilize the colony within two or three years, and after the dividend of the pill is over, find new points of interest and continue to develop the colony.

If Leo and Joe didn’t show up, this new point of interest might be the biggest headache for Bernando in the future. In the future, he might divide the colony under his control to the powerful forces in the Novat continent, and get funds and money from them. The support of the population, or simply provoke a colonial war between the old and new continents, turning his colonial point into a military center in the front, and then gaining the support of the Continental Allied Forces.

But now he doesn’t have to think so much, because the gold mine is enough to attract new residents to settle in his colony. As long as the gold mine is not exhausted, his colony will continue to prosper.

Thinking of this, Bernando already had a decision in his mind, he turned his head to look at Leo, thought for a while, and asked: “You tell me this, do you want me to bypass Joe and cooperate with you? ”

“No.” Leo shook his head and said, “You misunderstood! I never thought of letting you not cooperate with Joe. In fact, I think it is the best choice for you to cooperate with Joe.”

Bernando asked suspiciously: “Didn’t you just say that you are not Joe’s lobbyist?”

“You don’t understand, I cooperate with you, cooperate with you and Joe, there is no conflict.” Leo explained with a smile: “Based on your current situation, follow Joe’s suggestion and let the Natural Society join your colonization plan, It is the only way out, but when you choose the location of the colony, you should shift it slightly towards the Mum tribe, I believe this is also in your interest.”

“In that case, what do you want?” Bernando asked puzzled.

“Although Joe and I discussed cooperating to explore the underground world together, I don’t think Joe will honestly implement the agreement with me. In his eyes, there is a clear gap between the strengths and weaknesses of the two of us. The strong do not need to bow their heads to the weak. Once If he finds a more suitable partner, then there is no need for him to implement our agreement. Although it is not particularly important to me whether to cooperate with Joe, I feel that Joe should have mastered a lot and the underground world Regarding the secrets, his exploration of the underground world will be smoother than me alone, so in order to prevent Joe from becoming a promise-breaking liar, I need to find someone with enough weight to support me to join Joe on the underground world. The world’s exploration plan.” As he spoke, he looked at Bernando and said, “In Joe’s plan, Sir Bernando must be very important, so if I join Joe’s I believe that the plan to explore the underground world can also gain a considerable right to speak, which can form a restrictive effect on Joe, and I think His Excellency Bernando should have the same idea as me, right?”

After hearing this, Bernando fell silent. He thought for a while and asked, “Is your Excellency exploring the underground world to find a way back to the world outside the gray mist?”

“Why do you think so?” Leo asked with interest.

Bernando explained: “Since the ghost ship comes from the world outside the gray fog, it means that the ocean of that world is connected to the ocean of our world, so the ship can come to our world through the gray fog, This situation should be like the Novat Continent and the New Continent. In the past, the ocean between the Novat Continent and the New Continent was also shrouded in gray fog, making it impossible to pass through. However, there is a passage in the underground world that can connect the Novat Continent and the New Continent. Then There must also be a channel that can connect my world and your world.”

After listening to Bernando’s explanation, Leo couldn’t help but look at him again. He found that the nobleman of the Root Kingdom in front of him was not only keen on power, but also had a much broader vision and thinking than ordinary people. It is easy to associate one thing with more things related to it.

It has to be said that before Bernando said these words, Leo had never thought of using the underground passage to go through the gray fog and go to the world of Velen, but now he feels that the method Bernando said does not seem to be true. Not feasible, the only thing that needs to be considered is the direction of the underground passage, because even if there is no naturally formed underground passage, with his current physical strength, he can easily dig a passage underground even without the release-type extraordinary power. He doesn’t even need to do it himself, just spend some time and energy controlling and training a group of animals that can dig underground.

“I didn’t think about it before, but now that you’re talking about it, I think it’s a good idea, maybe I can use it in the future.” Leo expressed his thoughts frankly, and said, “But I’m still thinking about it for the time being.” I have no intention of leaving this world, there are many secrets in this world, I should stay in this world for a while to see if I can figure out these secrets.”

Bernando couldn’t help asking curiously: “Since you didn’t want to find a way out of this world, why are you so interested in the underground world?”

Leo pointed to the golden statue of the abyss serpent on the table, and said, “I went for this thing.”

“Gold?” Bernando seemed to misunderstand Leo’s suspicion, frowned slightly, and said, “Are you also heading for the underground gold mine?”

“You misunderstood.” Leo shook his head with a smile, and said, “I am going for the abyss snake. I suspect that there is an abyss snake in the underground world. I want to meet her and see if I can get her from her.” Where do you know what secrets this world holds.”

“Abyss Serpent? She?” Bernando was stunned. There is no pronoun used to represent a higher life form in the language of this world, so Leo used her in Sigma, and Bernando remembered that the old man seemed to be He used this word to represent the supreme existence in the supremacy theory, and now the person in front of him actually used this word to refer to the abyss serpent, which made him feel a little weird.

What made him even more puzzled was that from Leo’s tone, it was not difficult to hear that the monster named Abyssal Serpent seemed to have human-like intelligence and could communicate with humans. With this question in mind, he asked Leo directly: “From your tone, that abyss snake seems to have wisdom, understands human language, and can talk to humans?”

Leo did not immediately answer Bernando’s question, but thought for a while and said, “Do you know the doctrine of supremacy?”

“I know.” Bernando nodded.

“Then do you know God?” Leo said the word God in Sigma.

“I know.” Bernando nodded again, and said, “God represents the supreme being in the supremacy theory, right?”

“Yes.” Leo responded, and then said: “What I will say next may subvert your perception of the world, are you willing to listen?”

Leo’s words not only did not dispel Bernando’s desire to learn more, but instead aroused his interest, giving him a sense of novelty when talking with the old man about things in another world, so he couldn’t wait to signal Leo to continue go down.

Seeing this situation, Leo continued: “In the world of Velen, that is, the world beyond the gray mist, there are supreme beings. They are called gods, and they have the power to change the world.”

“Are you joking?” Bernando froze for a moment, then smiled.

Leo did not explain, but continued: “In addition to gods, there are also some people with mysterious powers. These people are called superhumans, and if some of these superhumans are lucky, they can also become gods.”

Bernando didn’t know what to say, he just looked at Leo. Although he felt shocked in his heart, his knowledge and common sense of the world made him unable to believe what Leo said, because he felt too Exaggerated, even more exaggerated than the ghost ship.

However, Leo didn’t give any further explanation, because he knew very well that it was impossible to change a person’s cognition by explaining with words, so he looked inside the tent, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, then walked to the desk next to him, casually Picked up a fist-sized metal product from the desk, then returned to Bernando, put the metal product in front of his eyes, and directly kneaded the hard metal product into a metal ball with his hands like kneading ooze.

Bernando stared dumbfounded at the metal ball in Leo’s hand, with his mouth open, speechless for a long time.

This metal product is a souvenir given to him by a foreign friend of his. The metal used to make this souvenir is a newly developed, extremely hard alloy metal. This metal needs extremely high temperatures to be melted, and then forged into different Once this metal is completely cooled and solidified, its hardness is several times harder than the hardest steel today. Such a hard metal product cannot be deformed even if it is smashed with a heavy object. He has tested it before. .

It was precisely because he had tested the hardness of this metal product before that he was extremely shocked by Leo’s behavior. Such a hard object was kneaded into a ball so easily by Leo. Make him wonder if he is hallucinating.

After calming down, he immediately thought of what Leo said before, and couldn’t help asking tentatively, “Are you a god?”
