Chapter 355 The Explorer's First Ocean Voyage (Part 2)
For Bruno, the wonder construction system is definitely a big point consumer.
In the map function of the wonder construction system, each map fragment requires at least twenty brilliant points to be unlocked.
Even if you spend all the 150 Brilliance Points awarded for building Hagia Sophia on map fragments, you can only unlock map fragments of seven unexplored areas at most.
But fortunately, the wonder construction system is still a principled system after all.
The unlocked map interface already includes most areas including the Kingdom of Basel, the Norman Empire and the Odin Empire, allowing Bruno, the host of the system, to browse at will.
But there is one thing to say,
Although the number of brilliant points required to unlock the map is quite high, the maps provided by the wonder construction system are indeed remarkable.
The map provided by the system is not just the basic version with a few contour lines and a few cities, rivers, and mountains marked on it.
Not only can it provide zooming in and out functions and be updated regularly, but it also provides extremely detailed introductions to the hydrological conditions and resource distribution of various places.
Take the Principality of Idar for example. Whether it is the Idar Avenue that is extending towards the Dale Hills and the Valens Plains, or the wonders and buildings that are under construction, they will all be presented on the system's map interface.
In addition, even the ocean currents in the Merlin Bay will be specially marked on the map.
The reason why Bruno strongly demanded to obtain mining rights in the eastern part of the Odin Empire and to establish a concession belonging to the Principality of Idar in the eastern highlands was also due to the help of the system map.
Therefore, even though it was expensive to unlock the map fragments, Bruno had no choice but to grit his teeth and go for it.
There is no other way, this "money" must be spent! If we really send the Idar Navy's ships like headless flies, groping in the vast ocean bit by bit, how long will it take to see the shadow of the New World?
Bruno can't wait that long!
only……
Purchasing map fragments is a bit like opening a blind box. Bruno doesn't know which map fragment to unlock to see the new world, because it more or less depends on luck.
But he had no choice but to charge forward!
Therefore, when the naval soldiers were ready to go, clamoring to explore the boundless ocean, Bruno activated the system and began to exchange nautical charts.
It's not that Bruno intentionally delayed, but things like nautical charts would increase the risk of being exposed if they were taken out one day earlier.
Although Bruno has enough trust in the CIA, it is always good to have an extra layer of protection.
The reason why Mundell was asked to go back to Song's nautical chart the day after tomorrow was because... the map in the system was equivalent to a dynamic electronic version.
What was handed over to the naval generals could only be copied by Bruno according to the map provided by the system.
Drawing takes time!
The location of the first map fragment that Bruno unlocked was chosen by him in the sea east of Merlin Bay.
His idea was actually very simple. Since he didn't know where the land was, he might as well go eastwards to unlock it. He would encounter it sooner or later anyway.
The first piece of map fragment contained only ocean, but Bruno was mentally prepared.
The second piece of debris was still the vast ocean, which made him feel a little lost.
The third fragment is still...
etc……
Not the ocean!
It's land! Although Bruno's luck in playing cards is not good, he is very clear about business.
This time, the god of luck favored Bruno, the traveler, again. When he unlocked the third map fragment located east of the Principality of Idar, Bruno was pleasantly surprised to discover the new world! But...
The moment he saw the new world, an extremely familiar word appeared in Bruno's vision again.
Because above that new land, there is a clear text mark - the Lost Land! [See Chapter 141 for details]
Although a year has passed,
But Bruno still clearly remembered the description of the Faran Islands in the wonder construction system -
[…The continent was once torn apart, and after thousands of years of drift…the broken lands have re-entered the human vision.]
According to the description of the wonder construction system, the Fran Islands located in the center of Merlin Bay are land fragments from the Lost Land! So,
What on earth would be on that continent across the sea from the Principality of Idar? Bruno thought that the New World would have a human civilization similar to that on Earth, but more backward than the Norman Empire, and that he could then perform the colonization operations familiar to Paradox players.
But the name of "Lost Land" and Bruno's understanding of this world made him waver at this moment.
If there is life on that continent, then are the people living there barbarians who are also human but extremely backward, or... something else? "Forget it, never mind... just do it!"
Bruno knew in his heart that
My wild thoughts at this moment are ultimately just unfounded conjectures.
Only when the Idar people set foot on the land on the other side of the ocean will all doubts be resolved.
and,
The wonder construction system makes it clear that the gods of this world...are dead! ...
Merlin DC.
When Captain Hausen saw Mundell's figure appear on the naval port dock, the middle-aged general of the Idar Navy was as excited as a child.
As a senior general of the Idar Navy, Captain Hausen knew very well the purpose of Mundell's coming here.
No one has ever truly seen the sea chart in Bruno's hand, but the words of Duke Idar are the truth of this land.
Therefore, when Bruno took the initiative to reveal this news at an internal meeting of the navy's top brass, all the naval generals present were extremely shocked.
What is a sea chart? It is a precious treasure that any captain regards as his life! As the Idar Navy's understanding of the ocean becomes deeper and deeper, and they become more familiar with the vast ocean adjacent to the Idar Principality, they also understand more clearly...
A complete and accurate sea chart plays an irreplaceable and key role in the navigation of ships! If the Duke really has a complete sea chart in his hand, then the Idar people's exploration of the ocean will undoubtedly be twice as effective with half the effort! And the arrival of Mondale undoubtedly means...
The nautical chart that all naval generals dream of will appear in front of them in the next moment!
