Chapter 725: Linglan Island
The reason why the sails of the big ship can blow themselves without wind is because the ship is equipped with a device that blows the wind on its own, and the amount of wind blowing is very amazing, which can make the sailboat reach a speed of more than 60 miles per hour.
Seeing Xiao Chen staring intently at the air vent, the senior brother said with pride: "This kind of device was invented and made by our ancestors of the Linglan Sect more than two hundred years ago, how about it, it's very powerful,"
An hour is two hours, an hour is sixty miles, an hour is converted into an hour and thirty miles, thirty miles is converted into fifteen kilometers, and the speed of fifteen kilometers per hour is not fast.
I thought that Xiao Chen would give a thumbs up and praise a few words, but I didn't expect him to ask rhetorically: "Since there is such a powerful thing, why not improve it and make it the source of power for the propeller, the use of sails will not only increase the weight of the hull, but also there will be many drawbacks, there will be nothing to do in the case of downwind and no wind, what about headwinds, how do you sail when there is a strong headwind,"
The senior brother was stunned: "When the wind is headwind, we generally don't go to sea,"
"So, remove the sails, add propellers to the stern, and use the reverse thrust of the water to travel, which is not only fast, but also not affected by the weather," the little marquis gushed: "Moreover, the speed of the boat can be more than doubled, or, change the hair dryer to a water spray device, the speed will be faster than the propeller, of course, you can't get fat in one bite, I suggest you start with the propeller first,"
The ninth generation of the little marquis is a human being, and the first eight generations have been on the earth, and by the time of the twenty-first world, the technology mastered by human beings can allow ordinary ships to sail at a speed of about 60 kilometers, and if they are replaced by motorboats, the maximum speed can reach a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour.
The elder brother listened to the clouds, whether it was propellers or water jet propulsion, it was too strange to him, if he was in charge of shipbuilding, he would continue to build sailboats and install hair dryers,
is not enterprising, and in most cases is the product of maintaining the status quo,
After a while, a small green island appeared in front of the sailboat, and you could vaguely see the busy people on the beach.
The little junior sister jumped over and introduced: "That is the exclusive island of our Linglan faction, called Linglan Island, beautiful,"
The little marquis nodded: "It looks very good, hey, there is an island not far from it, is it also from your Linglan faction?"
Following his direction, the little junior sister immediately became indignant: "No, that island and reef Chengkang Island is the exclusive island of the Chengkang faction,"
Obviously, the relationship between the Linglan faction and this Chengkang faction will not be too good, otherwise the little junior sister would not have such an expression,
Xiao Chen is not good at continuing to inquire, after all, it is someone else's business, and it is inappropriate for an outsider to ask so much,
As the distance closes, it can be clearly seen that the area of Chengkang Island is much larger than that of Linglan Island, and the vegetation coverage rate is also much higher.
Moreover, there are several times more ships moored around Chengkang Island than on Linglan Island.
The sailboat docked at the port, and the person in charge of greeting him saw that it was Senior Brother, and immediately stepped forward and asked, "Senior Brother, you have come back so soon, have you completed your task?"
He clearly remembered that in the biography of the flying pigeon he received a few days ago, the senior brother said that the assassination failed.
"Let's put aside the task first, I'll invite two guests," the senior brother turned back and pointed to Xiao Chen and Piao Piao, and introduced, "They are here to help us play the game, maybe they can make it to the finals,"
When the man heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Great, everyone is worried that our people won't be able to enter the semi-finals, I'll go and inform the master immediately,"
The 30-year big competition is divided into three stages: the preliminary round, the semi-finals and the finals.
The head of the Linglan faction is named Duan Tonghua, and he is the highest-ranking person on this island.
In the Nanhai Sect, people divide people who have surpassed the peak of the Holy Martial Realm into the third rank of the earth level and the third rank of the heaven level, which are the early and late stages of the earth level and the early, middle and late stages of the heaven level, respectively.
After surpassing the late stage of the Heaven Level, the strength will enter another new stage, known as the Ascension Stage, and the soul warriors at this stage will concentrate on waiting for the test that will come at any time, regardless of the world.
The so-called ascension test is similar to the tribulation when Xiao Chen was a cultivator in the eighth life, and if he passes, he can fly to become an immortal, and if he fails, he will be destroyed.
Duan Assimilation is the strength of the early stage of the Heaven Level, and according to his previous cultivation progress, he will enter the Soaring Ascending Stage within twenty years.
When he heard that the eldest apprentice had brought a helper, he was overjoyed.
The younger generation of the Linglan Sect is thin, and there are only a dozen disciples under the age of thirty, and none of them can reach the Saint Martial Realm.
In the South China Sea Islands, many people are born as soul masters, and when ordinary children are born, they at least have the strength of the chemical weapon realm.
The innate advantage makes them advance quickly when they are children, and they are even more out of control when they become adults.
Here, most people can advance to the Saint Martial Realm at the age of thirty.
Of course, Nanhai Zhudao dominates one hundred and eight islands, and not everyone is a soul warrior, most of them are ordinary people, and they can only choose to become fishermen and farmers.
"The two of you have come all the way to help my Linglan faction overcome the difficulties, and the contemptible people are grateful," Duan Tonghua said to them,
Duan Tonghua saw the level of the two at a glance, the girl was actually stronger than him, and the boy was slightly weaker, but he also had the strength above the middle of the prefecture level.
They will definitely be able to achieve good results when they come forward to compete.
"The head is polite," Xiao Chen said in a modest tone, "It's our honor to come to the precious land to see the competition once every thirty years,"
The two were treated as distinguished guests, invited ashore, and Duan Tonghua ordered a banquet to receive the wind and wash the dust for the distinguished guests.
During the banquet, Xiao Chen asked a lot of questions related to the Ascending Emperor Extreme Realm, and learned that the so-called Ascension Test was mainly based on lightning, strong winds, torrential rain, hail, landslides, and ground cracks, which was very similar to the process of the cultivator's tribulation.
Every few years, there will be people from the South China Sea Sect who successfully ascend to the Emperor Extreme Realm, and sometimes they can even fly several times a year, which is already strange to them.
In the history of Linglan Island, there have been many predecessors who have successfully soared.
However, the number of ascending people does not mean that a sect is strong, but it will affect the strength of the sect because there are too many ascendants, because the people in power are all souls below the ascending stage, and the number of disciples at this stage is the most important.
In particular, the quality of disciples under the age of 30 can directly determine the status of the sect, and only those under the age of 30 can participate in the 30-year competition.
After each competition, fixed resources will be distributed according to the number of disciples shortlisted for the semi-finals and finals of each faction, and the team that wins the championship has the right to decide the ownership of other resources.
If the disciples of a certain sect can't even enter the semi-finals, then in the next thirty years, they don't want to get any resources.
The so-called resource distribution, in addition to money, jewelry, and gold income, is the most important thing that helps the cultivation of soul warriors, such as various genius earth treasures, magic crystals, and so on.
The Linglan faction has a helper, so there is no need to worry about not being able to share resources, the atmosphere of the banquet is very warm, from the head of the sect Duan Assimilation downwards, dozens of people take turns to toast Xiao Chen and Piao Piao,
At this time, a very discordant voice sounded: "Yo drink, you really invited foreign help, why don't you say hello to those of us who are neighbors,"
