Chapter 382: Exploring the Australian Continent
Hearing Mi Du say this, Long Sifeng couldn't help but look at Mi Baoer. With the invisible shift of the topic, as well as the conversation between Long Sifeng and Mi Du, it is enough to show that in fact, Long Sifeng and the others have already accepted the existence of Mi Du.
"This Kunpeng capital is not simple, just the architectural principles involved in it are the most advanced in reality, so you can know how difficult the process of its construction will be." Speaking of the Kunpeng Capital, Mi Baoer immediately became interested.
"Coupled with the location of the Kunpeng Capital, when it is completed, it will definitely be equivalent to a city in the sky. Due to its high terrain and special environment, after the construction of the city wall, it will be surrounded by clouds and mist all year round, thus forming a special scene. ”
Saying that, Mi Baoer actually took out a model of the Kunpeng City from the space equipment, and kept explaining it to the two. Her design of the Kunpeng capital is mainly based on the surrounding mountain peaks, and the pattern is so large that the two girls are secretly speechless.
Fortunately, this is a game, and the progress of the project is dozens of times faster than reality, otherwise according to her design, it will not be possible to see any results in a few years. And when the three daughters were discussing the construction project of the Kunpeng Capital, Lao Jiu was mixed in the wild forest of Australia.
In addition to geological exploration and topographic mapping, he is also responsible for the excavation of large ore veins and the cleanup of demonic beasts above level ninety. Especially for the Warcraft above level ninety-five, the strength has been qualitatively improved, and if the player and the army encounter it, it will definitely be a disaster.
With the influx of hundreds of thousands of players and hundreds of thousands of troops in the Easy Empire, the development process of the Australian continent has almost reached a peak. In just one month, the territory explored by the Empire of Freedom is like the interior of the Australian continent stretching for thousands of kilometers.
However, in the process of resource exploration and development, the players of the Easy Empire will inevitably have some friction with the players of Huaxia. Because in the past month, the exploration areas of the two empires have begun to officially connect.
For the sake of their own peaceful and stable development, the high-level of the Xiaoyao Empire had to hold talks with the high-level of Huaxia to agree on the division of territory. Finally, with the center of the two empires as the boundary, it extends to the center of the Australian continent, with the hunting grounds of China in the southwest and the hunting grounds of the Xiaoyao Empire in the southeast.
Just when Long Sifeng left Australia and Mi Baoer personally supervised the construction of the Kunpeng Capital, Lao Jiu had already discovered three large ore veins in the southeast region. To this end, Lao Jiu immediately mobilized a large army from the imperial capital, guarded the three ore veins, and established a town nearby.
In just a range of 1,000 kilometers, there are three large ore veins, which makes Lao Jiu full of enthusiasm for this land. And in the following month, Lao Jiu once again discovered a super purple gold mine three thousand miles away.
This vein is located on the border between the Xiaoyao Empire and China, which is a small basin, the landform in the basin is dominated by rocks and Gobi, but the water resources in the basin are very rich, and there is a lake in the center.
With the detection function of He's Bi, Lao Jiu knows very well what kind of wealth the owner has under this basin. In order not to attract the attention of the Chinese side, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, Lao Jiu began to plan the city here and incorporate land resources in the name of border defense and the geographical location of this basin.
The Huaxia side thought that the Xiaoyao Empire valued the geographical location of this basin and established a normal defense system, so they didn't think much about it, and they didn't care about the actions of the Xiaoyao Empire, which was also to avoid unnecessary disputes between the two parties.
So far, Lao Jiu named this basin Chishui Basin, and the lake in the center of the basin was called Chishui Lake, and the whole city was called Chishui City. Before the city defense of Chishui City did not meet the requirements, Lao Jiu did not plan to exploit the mineral resources in it, so as not to arouse the peep of the Chinese side.
For the exploration and development of the entire Australian continent, it is definitely cyclical and gradual, and Lao Jiu's exploration is even more unsparing, which makes the entire progress of the Empire seem extraordinarily slow, but the player's continuous deepening is very crazy.
Since Lao Jiu installed the teleportation array in Chishui City, players have also begun to move to the depths of the wilderness in large numbers, relying on Chishui City and developing towards the southeast. Their purpose is mainly to hunt Warcraft, obtain materials, and improve their own strength as much as possible.
Therefore, their exploration speed is almost much faster than Lao Jiu's. Just as the players were heading towards the interior of the Australian continent, Lao Jiu was still exploring the southeast of the Kunpeng Capital. Unlike the players, Lao Jiu's purpose is mainly to find mines.
Judging from the way the game copies reality, the Australian continent is worthy of being a continent sitting on a minecart, and the abundance of mineral resources simply makes Lao Jiu happy. After his long-term efforts, he really discovered an open-pit gold and copper mine in the southeast, four thousand miles away from the capital of Kunpeng.
The size of this vein is also beyond Lao Jiu's imagination, because it is surrounded by mountains on all sides, the humidity is large, and it is surrounded by clouds and mist all day long, so Lao Jiu calls this the land of smoke and clouds, and is ready to build a smoke cloud city here.
Yanyun City is more than 3,000 miles to the north, which is the outer coast of Jinpen Bay, and the east is nearly 2,000 miles away from the coastline, and more than 5,000 miles to the west is Chishui City. And Lao Jiu's three-month exploration, as well as on-the-spot research, also determined the site of these two main cities.
With the construction of the teleportation array, all kinds of materials and workers were transported to the two places, and they were built together with the Kunpeng Capital. And with the mining of the previous three veins, the types of these three veins also came out.
One of the gold and copper ore veins, and the other two ore veins, is a kind of flexible ore vein, which is very similar to the aluminum ore in reality, but it is called fusion ore in the game, and it is a neutralizing ore that is essential for the fusion of various ores, which is also recorded in detail in the gold page obtained by Lao Jiu, as well as the application method.
Unlike the Kunpeng Capital, the construction of Chishui City and Yanyun City is almost not affected by geographical location, so the construction of the two cities is relatively easy. However, Lao Jiu's requirements for the construction of the two cities are still the top strategic fortresses.
After the teleportation of Smoke Cloud City was opened, the surroundings of Smoke Cloud City once again became a paradise for players. Although it was only three months, for the players of the Easy Empire and Huaxia, the strength has obviously improved qualitatively.
Of course, it is not only their two empires, but also the outbreak of divine beasts on the Australian continent, which has also made a qualitative leap in the level of players around the world. It is impossible for other empires to ignore the smuggling of the Empire and China.
In order to delay the development of their two empires, the alliance army led by Australia has been detouring along the east and west coastlines of the Australian continent towards the northern seas, trying to disturb the rear of the two empires.
It's a pity that the mutation in the game caused the sea monster to also break out, making it take three months for the Australian Alliance fleet to reach the north coast of Australia. However, the lack of a suitable landing site has always been a headache for the Australian Coalition army.
However, as their patrol team continued to explore, they finally discovered Jinpeng Bay. However, at this time, the Xiaoyao Empire had already prepared, and the alliance's two million troops were simply blocked by the army of the Xiaoyao Empire on Jinpeng Bay, and they could not set foot on land.
In the case that the logistics and supplies could not keep up, the Australian coalition forces had to think of another way. And Lao Jiu's idea is actually very simple, that is, not to contact them head-on, and always stick to the landing position, as long as the Australian alliance army cannot land, then there is no way to take them.
During this period, the Australian Alliance also sent experts to try to sabotage the Kunpeng Capital, but they were all repelled by the players of the Easy Empire. Although their behavior has caused some trouble to the construction of the Kunpeng Capital, it is not worth mentioning at all for the entire project.
These actions of the Australian Alliance are not enough to affect Lao Jiu. Under the circumstance that Mi Du was able to handle, Lao Jiu still continued his work. For this unknown continent, Lao Jiu only advanced more than 5,000 miles in three months.
This is only a small piece of the vast Australian continent. In order to find out a rough idea first, this time Lao Jiu took Dumb and began to have a comprehensive understanding of the northeast region of the Australian continent.
Today's Dumb, whose level has reached level ninety-five, and Dumb, whose strength has changed qualitatively, can be regarded as a hegemon on this continent. Therefore, there are very few Warcraft that take the initiative to provoke Dumb.
With the assistance of Dumb, Lao Jiu explored all the way to the depths of the mainland, and after leaving the northeast mountain forest area, more than 8,000 miles to the south, it was the plain area. However, although there are few trees here, the grass grows and the warbler flies.
The air is almost the world of all kinds of birds, and there are not a few birds above the ninety level, and there are many species. Like golden eagles, griffins, iron-winged eagles, etc., the most ferocious of which is the pterosaur, which is the descendant of the ancient dragon.
It's just that the number of this kind of pterosaur is not much, and the two ninety-level pterosaurs dare to provoke Dumb, but with the cooperation of Lao Jiu and Dumb, they still beat away the two pterosaurs. And if he wanted to kill them, although Lao Jiu could do it, he didn't do that.
If he kills the pterodactyls, in case it attracts the siege of the pterodactyl group, then it will definitely be a disaster for him and Dumb. Therefore, his purpose is very simple, that is, to tell these pterodactyls that they are not easy to provoke, and it is better not to provoke them.
And beyond this vast plain, there is a vast mountain range, and the high altitude of this mountain range makes Lao Jiudu look sideways. Without rushing into the exploration, Lao Jiu was ready to choose a suitable place to build a city on this plain first.
Only by standing on the heels can we develop steadily. And on this vast plain, there are no natural hazards, only a suitable geographical location. And the water source is the most important choice.
