Chapter 178: Red Earth Continent
The breeze blew, and Will sat a little bored on the back of the King of the Sky. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It was the fifth day, and he was a little tired from the rush to the road.
"It's almost there."
The butler stood up, his chin raised.
Sure enough, a towering red mountain wall appeared in Will's sight.
"Stupid bird, raise the level."
As it continued to rise, the temperature began to drop, and soon, the king of the sky was passing through the clouds.
As far as the eye can see, the surroundings are white, like a fairyland.
"The right direction, just keep going and you'll get to Mary Joy."
The butler holds a strangely shaped pointer made of metal with a red arrow floating in the center.
Noticing Will's gaze, the butler tossed the pointer in his hand to Will.
"This is a special pointer of the laterite continent, the entire laterite continent is one, so the magnetic field is basically the same, if you want to distinguish the direction, you need this permanent pointer.
This kind of pointer will only point to one direction, so you need to judge the direction yourself. ”
It was clear that this thing was somewhat similar to the compass in his previous life, except that it was much simpler.
Looking at the subtle shaking pointer, it remains to be seen whether this thing is reliable or not.
"Prepare to land, there are regulations on the Red Earth Continent that prohibit air, the last time you flew here, I helped you dredge it."
Will looked at the big butler with some surprise.
"yes, let's land, then."
The King of the Sky landed, and Vir signaled the other party to move freely, and after a low sound, the King of the Sky flew in the direction of the new world.
"The eldest lady is already waiting in the castle, let's go."
Stepping on the red clay continent, Will sensed that the ground here was a kind of red stone, which was not low in hardness, and should not be able to be planted.
But according to the description of the great butler, there are many countries living on the Red Earth Continent, and the total number of people is in the tens of millions.
With such a large population, does it depend on transportation for 'daily needs'? This is absolutely impossible, it seems that the inhabitants of the Red Earth Continent have special farming methods.
He didn't go far before he found that the Red Earth Continent was not a barren land, and a forest had appeared not far away.
The verdant forests are especially dense, and those trees actually grow on the red rocks, and the red soil is cracked.
"It's amazing that trees grow on rocks, but not only trees, but some plants can also grow on redstone.
These redstones are hard, but there are a lot of special plants that can grow here, you see. ”
The butler pointed to the front of him, and there was a cluster of flowers, blooming in different colors.
"It's such an amazing plant, I wondered where the food would come from, since there are a lot of civilians living here."
Looking at the lush plants nearby, Weir found that the red soil continent seemed to be very suitable for planting.
"Hey." The butler sighed.
"Although there is never a shortage of food, but the water source is very scarce, the red earth continent only has surface water, there is no underground water resources at all, if it is not for an air water extraction technology developed by Vegapunk, people on the red earth continent will die of thirst every year."
The big butler's face was sad, which made Will wonder if Anita's usual things were taken care of by the big butler.
Will guessed right, most of the things of the Anita family are taken care of by the big housekeeper, and only some important decisions need Anita, usually Anita only needs to be responsible for Mei Ruhua.
"Will, do you feel anything different here?"
The butler walked ahead and suddenly asked Will.
"The air is obviously thinner, and if ordinary people arrive here, there will definitely be 'altitude sickness'."
The laterite continent is above the clouds, so the air pressure here is very strong, and the air is easily compressed, so the lower the place, the higher the density of the air and the higher the oxygen content.
"'Altitude sickness'? En~, what an apt description.
After the eldest lady took over power, the first thing she did was to exempt her territory from taxes, and the second thing was to relocate the inhabitants of the Red Earth Continent to the bottom. ”
The butler had a smile on his face, looking supportive of Anita's decision.
There are so many undeveloped islands in the sea, why should you live in such a poor place. ’
This is the eldest lady's original words, when the eldest lady said this, the old man was shocked in his heart, those hundreds of years of fixed thinking did not imprison the eldest lady.
Yes, there is so much land waiting to be developed, why suffer here, there is so much water shortage here. ”
"Oh~." Will looked interested, he hadn't seen her for a long time, and Anita had grown a lot.
"Will the other Draconians agree? With the arrogant character of those Celestial Dragons, they would never allow this kind of thing, and the civilians living on the Red Earth Continent were also God's people in the eyes of those Celestial Dragons. ”
The butler nodded.
"Of course I don't agree, the 'Antonio family' was the first to stand up, and this incident completely intensified the contradiction between us and the 'Antonio family', and the peace was broken."
As Vir expected, the arrogant character of the Draco people would not allow such a thing.
However, the eldest lady did not give up, and as of now, half a million civilians have been relocated by the eldest lady to the islands in the East China Sea, where pirates are the rarest.
When the civilians were first relocated, they were also a little dissatisfied, but half a year later, the civilians called the eldest lady the 'Queen of Dawn'. “
The butler's chest couldn't help but straighten up, and his face was a little proud.
While chatting with the Grand Butler about the sword, Mary Joya had already loomed in front of Will.
"Here it is, there is Mary Joa, the place that the moths call the Holy Land."
Before reaching 'Mary Joa', Vir had seen a small group of soldiers.
These soldiers differed from the navy's attire in that they were blue, brightly dressed, and had brand new weapons.
Will was not optimistic about these soldiers, compared to the navy, these soldiers lacked a kind of flesh, and it was more accurate to say that it was not so much an army as a guard of honor.
"Someone ...... come." A shout of rage stopped abruptly, and after seeing the face of the chief butler, the soldiers all fell to their knees on one knee.
"Welcome back to General Kimbula."
The slogans are neat, and the movements are consistent.
Will shook his head, mentally branding the soldiers 'Greenhouse Flowers'.
Not to mention the navy, the combat effectiveness of these people may not be as good as some ordinary pirates.
The butler didn't seem to like the soldiers either, so he just nodded and walked past them.
After Vir and the butler had walked away, the soldiers stood up in a messy manner and began to exchange words.
"See, Thunder Sword Howe Ville, the overlord of the New World, that guy actually came to 'Mary Joa', it seems that something big is about to happen."
"It's a scary person, he just looked at me, and I felt like my blood was about to stop."
"It's okay with us, there's still two hours and three minutes to change the guard, and after that, do you want to have some fun, brothers."
The dozen or so soldiers laughed strangely, it seemed that these soldiers not only had no combat effectiveness, but also had a very 'rich' private life.
