Odysseus didn't know how to play with the compass, he swayed left and right, and only after a long time did he shout in surprise, "This needle will point to the north!"

Menes smiled, "Yes, the compass is right, with this thing at least you won't get lost, whether it's day or night, cloudy or clear, even in a storm, you can accurately identify the direction." According to your method, you can calculate the latitude by the height of the sun or the stars in the night sky, but the longitude cannot be accurately calculated, which is more complicated, and can only be roughly estimated by direction and speed, and the longitude problem can be solved by making a clock in the future. ”

None of the people present could understand the latitude and longitude, so everyone could only look at Menes with a bewildered expression.

Odysseus secretly sighed in his heart Menes' omniscience, this guy has just glanced at the primordial ocean twice, how can he know so much about navigation? Is it really a god, the king of mummies and the possession of Poseidon, the god of the sea?

Everyone was silent, and Bata suddenly looked up and said, "Actually, I can do this problem of positioning!"

Everyone was shocked again!

"Are you positioned?" Menes asked curiously.

"Where are we now?" Menes asked.

Everyone wants to laugh, we're in the hall of your home in the Holy Cat City!

Bata understood what Menes meant: "When I say positioning, I am relative position, and I can perceive distance, height, angle, and bearing. ”

Bata paused slightly, waiting for everyone to gather their thoughts.

"In other words, I can position myself in relative position. ”

"Oh, how far are we from White City?" Menes asked.

"One thousand seven hundred and fifty-four Macht and seventy-eight trees and nine wrist feet, the southwest declination angle is one and sevenths of five degrees, and the relative height is sixty-five tree feet and six wrist feet, my godhead ability is not accurate enough, it may be wrong, and it is not possible to be more accurate at the moment. Bata said regretfully.

"Didn't you say you had this superpower?" Menes asked.

"You haven't asked, and I've only recently been able to sense the exact bearings. ”

The people at the scene were surprised again.

"Congratulations, my lord, Bata has improved his godhead again!" said Jett.

No, three happiness is coming, Gua's cultivation and birth ability, Daidia's divine structure, and Bata's position perception, what kind of people are you?

Menes thinks she's so lucky to have found so many super demigods in such a short period of time, oh, and Merita is good enough!

The King of Mummies, the Undertaker, a fourth-level creator, a two-level creator, a third-level snake blower, a third-level magician, and a team of Divine Punishment Mummies, what kind of lineup is this? A lord in a remote area has so many demigods? Is this going to compete with the Holy City, the White City?

Odysseus muttered in his heart, it seems that being able to be friends with Menes is the greatest luck in this life, and the thighs must be clenched!

The atmosphere at the scene immediately became warm, and everyone raised their glasses to celebrate.

Menes calmed down her emotions a little, and immediately said to Bata, "Bata, dear Bata, you are too wasteful to stay here, you are leaving my territory!"

"What, sir, did I do something wrong? you're going to chase me away?" Batta's startled glass fell to the ground.

Menes bent down and picked up the wine glass and said, "No, you'd be wrong, I need you to explore this world, not the whole universe!"

"You see you have this kind of superpower, it's a pity to stay here to build, leave the matter of moving bricks to me to do, I have the strength, you have to go out, I want you to draw a map of the whole world!"

"I'll give you a fleet, and you're going to ride the waves, go deep into the jungle, cross the river, climb the mountains, draw the world, and pass it on to future generations!"

Menes said so much that Bata didn't know what to say, and said half-paid, "My lord, I'm ...... Can't draw!"

Education, education is missing, and Bata has not been taught well before. "Merita, where is Merita?" Menes yelled, at the top of her voice.

Merita hurried from the corner.

"Merita, the mapping will be left to you, you will educate Bata personally!"

Merita nodded in agreement.

"I mean, I think I taught you the basics of math and geometry before, why wouldn't you, Bata?" said Menes, touching his head.

"My lord, don't I have something to do, I can do basic arithmetic, but how can I be a rough man who fights a war when drawing such a delicate thing?"

"What kind of army is rough? Everyone in my army must be able to write, arithmetic, and draw! Nacht, how is the training of the army? I said before that we should conduct cultural education every day!"

Nacht stood up at the table in the distance and said loudly, "My lord, the army is guaranteed to complete the mission, please take the test!"

"Sit, sit, don't yell so loudly!"

Even in a place like the army, you have to learn culture, writing, and arithmetic? What is Menes' army like? Odysseus admires Menes even more in his heart, and if he hadn't taken over the official position of Queen Lily, Odysseus wouldn't want to go back.

As the feast continued, Menes was excited to drink a few glasses of wine and chatter with Odysseus about ocean voyages.

Odysseus's ship used oars, a large oar as the rudder, and Menes explained to Odyssis the large tail rudder so that it could turn faster.

The Achaian ships had a deck, a small hull with a limited load, and only one mast hung a sail, and they relied on oars to advance against headwinds.

Menes was to build larger ships, huge sea-going ships with three decks, with at least three masts standing high and full sails, going at full speed when downwind, splitting the waves at high speed, and using the triangular sails to catch the wind when the wind was headwind.

Regarding the use of the triangular sail, Menes and Odysseus explained for a long time before he figured it out, and Odysseus couldn't help but cover his face with his hands and admire!

This type of sailboat does not require a large number of sailors and relies entirely on the wind to move forward, which frees up more space to load cargo, water and food.

The hull of the ship should have ballast to avoid the waves being too easy to overturn the ship, and the bottom should be divided to form a watertight compartment, so that the whole ship will not sink if water enters one place.

Ocean voyages also need to prepare some fresh fruits and vegetables, no fruit juice can also be, there are no oranges here, just use other fruits instead to avoid scurvy of the crew!

"Did you know? Crew members who have been on ocean voyages all year round are prone to a disease, bleeding gums, weakness, paleness, bone pain, and so on, and this problem is not eating fruits and vegetables!" continued Menes.

Odysseus was simply stunned, Menes also knew this?

They Akaea people generally sail along the ocean line, but sometimes they will get lost in storms, and everyone will indeed have this symptom after sailing in the vast sea for a long time, but is it not caused by the demons in the sea? What does it have to do with vegetables?

Odysseus was surprised.

"Trust me, you can try it later and you'll see if I'm right!" Menes said, taking Odysseus' hand.

"In addition, I can't rely on experience in navigation, I want to open another navigation school to study ocean currents, climate, monsoons, ship making, map drawing, ship handling, etc."

"Also, I omitted to say that in the future, when Merita's steam engine is completely stabilized, it will still be installed on ships, so that we can completely abandon the wind and gallop at high speed in the vast ocean!"

Odysseus listened to the clouds, and said so much that he couldn't understand at once!

"In short, now it seems that I need to spend more time on education, the production of ships and the training of sailors require manpower and time, this must be done as soon as possible, we are going to create the great age of discovery!"

Menes drank vigorously and dipped his wine on the table and began to draw the map he knew, while Bata and Odysseus gathered around to listen to Menes explain the map.

Is the world really like this? It doesn't seem to be the same as we know? The temple says that our world is a flat land, surrounded by the ocean, how is there land everywhere, and how is the kingdom of Kemert so small?

Where is the island of Ithaca?, Odysseus asked.

"Here, a little bit. Menes said.

"How can it be so small, my kingdom is much smaller than Kemert, but it can't be so small, right? You must have drawn the wrong Menes!" Odysseus protested.

Menes thought to herself, I've already given you a big mark, and if you calibrate it completely according to the scale, you won't be able to see your island at all, okay?

Menes didn't talk much about Odysseus, saying only that it was a simple map, very insubstantial, so it was up to Bata to complete it.

Bata lamented, "The world is so big, when will I be able to finish it all?"

"It is estimated that there is no hope in this life, so we need to educate more people, and there will be successors to continue the unfinished business in the future!"

"I'd rather see the world with my own eyes!" Odysseus said.

"Hahaha...... Work hard, maybe there is a chance, maybe one day we can fly into the sky and fly across the ocean, then you can see the whole world!"

"Oh, speaking of flying, don't you Achaia have a man named Daedalus, and where is he?" Menes asked suddenly.

"Who is Daedalus?"

"You don't know, well, it's a flying birdman!" Menes was a little sorry that Odysseus, the man in the mythical story, didn't know.

The whole banquet eventually became chaotic and unruly, everyone drank and staggered, and Menes drank too much and forced herself back to the room.

Odysseus's mission has been successfully completed, although it did not help Queen Lily complete the mission of the alliance, but this result is actually about the same, the main thing is to get money, and with money, Queen Lily can support it.

Odysseus looked around before leaving, and he was amazed by everything, the water-powered blower, the mill, the windmill irrigation, the drill of the harness cavalry, the large trebuchet, the bed crossbow, the blazing steel blast furnace, the black coal, all of which were incomparably amazed.

It seems that his army also needs to be reformed, the cavalry is the king of land warfare, the trebuchet is too powerful, there is no wall to resist his attack, Menes' army is not large, but the combat effectiveness is very strong, the morale of the army is high, Menes is already a military force that cannot be ignored in this kingdom!
