Chapter 986: The World of Magnets
"Captain's order, repair room Eugene, report to the bow deck."
The herald sends a message in a magnetic field.
Eugene lowered the sanding railroad and left the bilge repair room. Outside, there is a long and wide corridor with a large number of balustrades on the floor and walls, on which there are many graffiti paintings, some left by children of today, and more by people of the past.
In the rooms on both sides of the walk, there are children who are younger than Eugene.
Most of them are still learning how to use tools and magnets. There are also a few, like Eugene, who have mastered all the basic skills and are involved in the formal work of the shipβsanding and splicing railings, repairing broken bulkheads, and making magnetic collars, among other things.
The bottom of the magnetic sailboat is used to protect children, and as the magnet grows older and more capable, he will gradually move to a higher level of the ship, and can only enter and exit the deck freely after obtaining crew qualifications.
Eugene made his way up the stairs and stood on the deck after the crew confirmed the door was opened.
The magnetic field outside was so strong that he had to magnetically attract the ship to his feet. The constant tossing and turning of the ship under the storms and waves of the magnetic sea is a very different world from the stable cabin, and it is also a real cruel environment.
Eugene has been up several times.
But every time he sets foot here, he still gets excited.
Sailing in the boundless magnetic sea, the already small magnetic sailing ship is extraordinarily small.
Overhead, in the sky is the other pole of the magnetic sea, where the force of the magnetic field also pushes all kinds of gravel and sediment into an endless black-brown ocean current that continues to tumble.
Occasionally, you can see a magnetic sailing ship hanging upside down in the sky. Everyone can say hello from afar, each other is the sky in each other's eyes, and what can never be touched because of the difference in magnetic poles are two horizons that will not intersect.
The Magnetic Sailboat of the Rabul family sailed in such a harsh and dangerous environment, and never stopped exploring and advancing.
The captain stood at the bow of the ship, holding a positioning disk, identifying the bearings.
Lamb VII was the captain of the ship and the leader of the entire Lamb family's 137 magnets. He was tall and stocky, and Eugene's head was only up to his thigh.
"Eugene."
The captain turned his face, and the powerful magnetic field emanating from his dark face was intimidating.
"I have decided to send you and Dimon to the Calamity as the entrants of the Rabul family this time."
Eugene was taken aback: "The mediocrity ...... Has the Boundary Wall appeared? β
"Yes, just ahead."
In the magnetic sea, various material fragments accumulate and form a fixed flow direction under the action of a strong magnetic field. In this ever-changing fluid world, there are also some scattered islands.
The most famous is the White Island, or the Boundary Wall. They are the boundaries of the world and rise upwards from the bottom of the magnetic sea in the form of islands β a non-periodic phenomenon caused by magnetic fields.
If you find the Boundary Wall, you will have a chance to enter the legendary Sanctuary of Experience, the Tempest.
The last time the Rabul's crew entered the memorial site was 181 years ago. Bigadams Rabul, who was a trainer at the time, has now become the second officer of the Rabul, the captain's right and left hand.
Access to the Boundary Wall is rare, with only one or two places available at a time, due to the choice of access to the Impeded Lands themselves.
Rabul VII said: "I have surveyed the magnetic field, and this time it is not bad, larger than that of Gerdans. Hopefully both of you will make it to that end. β
Eugene was a little puzzled: "Captain, but I haven't been able to become a crew member yet." β
"So besides you, I also chose Damon, who is a young crew member."
Seeing Eugene's hesitation, Rabul VII said, "You want to ask, why did you choose you?" β
"Yes, Captain, to be honest, I didn't understand that if a veteran like Second Officer Bigdance were to be brought over, it would work much better than we did."
"No, you're wrong, Eugene."
The captain's magnetic field exuded a gentle power: "The older the magnet, the more unsuitable it is for the past." Because as we get older, the magneto's body will become larger and larger, and it will absorb more and more magnets, but this will also cause the thoughts to become more and more complex and difficult to focus. β
"For example, they will hesitate to gain direct power or growth traits, they will resist taking risks, and they will tend to be stable...... We have a lot of experience and skills, but these experiences and skills also bind us. β
"But your current stage is different, you have not been restrained by the gravitational pull of this world, and your imagination can still fly through the heavy magnetic field. Our ship needs to change, and we need young magnets, which is also the consensus of most captains, so the people we choose to send ashore are getting younger and younger. β
"Eugene, your greatest strength is that you dare to think. This is very important, and some people don't even have the courage to think about it, so it's even more impossible to do it. Even if you can take a step forward, or even give some experience of failure to those who come after you, this is precious. β
Eugene was a little embarrassed.
The captain said that he dared to think, but in fact, he liked to brag.
At the younger children and peers, Eugene blew the sky.
What did he once fall into the magnetic sea, and he struggled to survive in it and fought with a magnetic monster for three days and three nights, and finally got his approval and sent himself back to the ship.
What is an invisible magnetic sailboat that has been sending magnetic signals to itself, it is a giant ship with multiple bows, like a huge palm, which can easily accommodate thousands of magnetic people to live.
The ship lacked a captain because the magnetos had aged thoroughly and merged into the hull. Because Eugene defeated the Magnet last time, the Magnet recommended the ship to him, but he politely declined.
Because this kind of sailing ship of unknown origin may have some kind of curse. He built his own ship.
In short, the future Eugene will be an incomparable captain, who will sail on the magnetic sea in a powerful magnetic sailboat built by himself.
This is all his casual nonsense, and it is all a fantasy in his head.
I didn't expect the captain to take a fancy to his own side.
Eugene didn't know whether to call the captain confused or the captain wise.
The sailboat approached a stretch of sea, where the surface of the sea suddenly rose slowly, and a white floating island protruded from under the heavy magnetic sea, which stood out in the black sea.
Rabul VII sent two members to the island.
He first gave a separate advice to the crew member, Damon.
Then the captain's magnetic field unfolded to Eugene: "Eugene, after you enter over there, it may take many years to come back. But you'll also get a chance to quickly increase your self-magnetism over there. β
"I want you to remember that the Rabul family will always await your return. We will always search for your magnetic field, waiting to see you again. β
Stepping onto the floating island, Eugene felt himself sink rapidly, engulfed by the island.
When he woke up again, he was already in the middle of a disaster.
β¦β¦
19 years later.
Eugene watched as a mesomorph flew into the air and disappeared into the sky.
He sensed information in his magnetic field.
[The mesoscopic body LV1 was successfully run, and the gear teeth were issued. γ
γGear:1γ
[Required completion of mediators: 18877/63000]
Slowly stopping the sun wheel, Eugene breathed a sigh of relief.
Today's work is done, and I can finally relax.
He looked to the side.
Dimon is still frantically carving the mesophant body with appendages.
Also on the crew of the Rabul, Daemon has a completely different personality from Eugene, he is the kind of guy who is very ambitious, he only thinks about one thing, and wants to help the whole Rabul through the transformation of the catastrophic body.
Daemon spun the wheel and dismantled the raw parts endlessly, just so that he could make as many mesophants as possible, get more teeth, and have enough balance to increase his magnetic strength.
Eugene admired him.
But Eugene couldn't be like him.
If the average person on board the Rabul is 5 and Eugene is 6, then Dimon is 9.
This is Dimon.
Eugene felt like he couldn't spend all his time on the same thing. It's like driving a ship, if everyone tries to keep the ship going at full speed, then who will maintain the ship, who will observe and steer the direction, who will pay attention to the movement of the magnetic sea storm?
But he never said anything about it.
Because Dimon is indeed very respectable. He can do the perseverance that other Rabul family members can't do, and keep rushing like the magnetic sea, maybe it will become the movement of the magnetic sea, and it is also a way to fight against the magnetic sea.
Eugene still asked.
"Damon, do you want to go surfing on the magnetic field?"
"No, no."
As always, the cold answer.
Eugene closed his eyes and connected his magnet to the magnetic field.
The magnetic field is a tool for magnetic people to communicate and travel with each other, which is also an ability that other wheelers in the field do not have.
Soon Eugene notices that there are two magnetos communicating, and their magnetic fields are intertwined with each other, forming ripples with a specific rhythm.
There are only a few magnets in the mesoterium, and the total number of people does not exceed 50, which can be confirmed by the magnetic reaction of the magnetic field.
This time it was the crew of the Porvery
One of the magnets said, "Friends, the Yao clan has taken action against several of the senior rotation workers of the one-eyed boy. Under normal circumstances, the One-Eyed Boy is very good at using the rules, and messing with them will cause the production of the mesomorphic body to be disrupted......"
Eugene had heard of the One-Eyed Boy.
It was a well-known senior wheelman, and he and several senior wheelmen teamed up to occupy a large mountain of raw materials, and would threaten and blackmail the surrounding low-level wheelmen.
One-Eyed has been here for many years and knows the rules of the mesoteric land very well. They are very good at side-by-side actions, such as deliberately haunting around the target rotation, talking, laughing, and provoking...... This can cause great psychological pressure on the victim without directly blocking the other party.
However, no sanctions will be imposed.
Even if there is a punishment, it will only increase the number of tasks of the one-eyed boy, and they don't care at all.
The rookie wheel will be afraid that they will not be able to complete the task and be wiped out, so they can only obediently give in, act as the outer brother of the one-eyed boy, and pay tribute to them. It was not until they had earned enough of the goal of the first hundred years that they dared to resist and break away.
Eugene listened intently.
The people of the Portray are open to dialogue, and they just don't mind the other magnets joining in.
"I know this."
Another magnet interjected and said: "Not long ago, the one-eyed boy coerced a new rotation worker, and as a result, that newcomer had joined the Yao clan, causing the Yao clan to take action. They arranged for 3 LV5 Mediators to cordon off the three Cyclops, destroying them in the air. β
"Later, the one-eyed boy went over to make amends and paid a sum of high-grade raw materials, and this is the end of the matter."
The original magnet said, "What I'm trying to say is, now that the Yao town is recruiting to join, should we think about it?" β
"Anyway, in the past, according to their way, each person can release at least 3 mesopharytes every day, this is the net profit that we can get, with our words, we can reach 4, and there are rewards from the Yao clan, and there are more wheel teeth that can be exchanged. You can rest for every 5 days, and you won't lose anything if you work for 100 years. It's definitely better than doing it ourselves, and maybe we can raise the magnet to LV10. β
Immediately, they focused on discussing the treatment over there, thinking that it would be more advantageous to find more people and go over to talk together.
Eugene had heard of the Yao, but had never dealt with it.
From the conversation of the crew of the Portray, Eugene felt that something was not quite right.
In this way, all profits go to the rotation workers, so don't the Yao people still have to support these people themselves?
As an old braggart, Eugene is deeply skeptical.
The bragging ability of the Keyao clan can make so many people believe and join, which is indeed a skill.
He decided to go to the field to find out what was going on.
At least in the field of bragging, learn from the advanced experience of the Yao people.
