Chapter XXXVII. A ruined lazy island
The pale cyan sky was studded with a few remnant stars, and the whole land was still hazy, and when the light of the sky converged, the dawn of dawn slowly lifted the light veil of night. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The darkness was like a panicked beast, and it didn't take long for it to disappear from the sky.
The faint sunlight with a hint of warmth sprinkled softly.
Winding rivers weave back and forth between forests, land, and mountains, and the murmuring water flows happily, and colorful fish are chasing and playing in the clear water.
The slightly old boat pressed against the river, and under the vigorous paddling of a famous oarsman, accompanied by the ripples of the water, like a fish galloping freely, looking for its own piece of world.
The cold wind in the early morning always carries a little dampness, but when it is exhaled into the body, the faint chill makes Rees, who was still a little sleepy, wake up a lot.
Looking at the neatly cut and tied trees on the deck behind him, the middle-aged man who looked quite old couldn't help but have a smile on his face.
From time to time, the surface of the river, which was stirred by the cold wind, set off a small wave, and the boat under him also began to shake with the rolling waves, and even made a "crunch" twisting sound.
Although the ships that Chopin plundered from Damacius did not carry any long-range weapons such as ballistas or trebuchets, and were powered entirely by oarsmen, these somewhat dilapidated three-masted galleons were a good option for transporting goods around the island.
The forest on the outer edge of Paris has been cleared, and with the hard work of the inhabitants of the city, it has been reclaimed into a fertile land, and patches of wheat are growing rapidly under the action of the system.
Clearly, however, a small area could not meet the needs of the more than 5,000 Parisian inhabitants, so a larger-scale and more systematic wheat farming had to be put on the agenda, but before that could be done on sufficiently fertile land.
Further afield, the forest has not been developed because of the difficulty of building improvised roads and transporting them.
Even if the heavy logs were placed on the intricately constructed carts, or transported to the city of Paris by tamed horses from the grasslands, the speed was still too slow, and the manpower and material resources consumed were too astonishing.
But since the long river that runs through the entire Drifting Island, all the problems have been solved, whether it is the stones that were transported from the quarry to build the road, or other heavy items, all of which could be transported by the river.
The rivers that fell from the sky more than ten days ago shocked all the residents of Paris, but in their hearts, they subconsciously ignored the inherent rules of this world, and more stubbornly believed that it was a selfless gift from God.
As one of the many loggers in the forest, Rhys was promoted to captain of the team because of his outstanding abilities, and with these sailing ships to transport goods, the heavy manpower transportation could finally be eliminated.
Standing behind him was a row of young men full of youth and vitality, perhaps the previous continuous fatigue had drained their physical strength, and at this time they were slightly tired leaning on the guardrail, but they still couldn't hide the excitement on their faces.
As the sun in the sky is getting brighter and brighter, the city of Paris, which has been silent all night, is also full of vitality, and Taoist figures are bustling on the streets, and everyone is busy for a new day.
As for Paris, which was originally known for its solemn architecture, it will eventually show a more dazzling brilliance in this other world.
In front of the thick city walls, through the ditches, a long river several meters wide envelops this ancient and vicissitudes of the city.
Everything seems to be moving in a better direction.
However, the unknown darkness and the prelude to the imminent turmoil have also been opened little by little......
*********
Because early morning is the most popular time for all kinds of strange sea beasts in the foggy area to move ashore, the soldiers patrolling the coast are also extremely cautious at this time.
It's fine if the average fish jumps onto the shore, but if you let a creature like the Ghost Armor into the interior of the island, it's a problem.
It's just that when the soldiers went to the beach as usual, they suddenly found that the white fog that had surrounded the island and covered the sky and the sun had all dispersed at some point, revealing the blue and clear sky.
The blue sea was dotted with sparkling light, and the waves set off by the sea breeze once again crashed fearlessly towards the Drifting Island, and then turned into a pile of broken splashes.
********
And not long after Chopin's Drift Island sailed out of the foggy area, a drifting island several times larger than it was cutting the waves in the wind.
The maple-leaf-like island is like a moving fortress above the ocean, sweeping everything in front of it with impunity.
However, at this time, this drifting island, which does not know where it belongs, seems to have just experienced a brutal war.
The thick fresh blood pressure sputtered out was on the young leaves that had just emerged, and then slowly dripped down along the fine streaks on it.
Around the tree, there were severed limbs and corpses, piled up in a mess, mixed with splatters of flesh and blood.
Spears, broken swords, broken arrows, scimitars...... All sorts of weapons, good and bad, are discarded on the ground at will.
The originally lush forest was now all stained red by that piece of blood, and the air was filled with a disgusting smell of blood.
In fact, it's not just forests, lakes, rivers, mountains...... The entire Drifting Island is full of ruined scenes.
Corpses, blood, and dead silence shrouded the entire island like a curtain of darkness opened by the night.
The bustling city that was originally located in the center of the entire island was also reduced to ruins in the fierce battle of the unknown, and the broken rubble kicked up a splash of dust, covering up the prosperity of the past.
