No matter when, the importance of maps is undoubted. When you need it and can't get it, you will know how inconvenient it will be.
If we were in the age of science and technology, it should be very easy to obtain maps. Maps of any city, place, or even the entire planet could be easily obtained.
If it involves confidentiality, it may not be displayed on the map, unless it is some special dedicated map.
The benefit of scientific and technological progress is that many expensive things have gradually become cheaper, and even ordinary people are eligible to enjoy them.
But in this world, it is not easy to obtain a map. You have to go to special places and take huge risks.
For example, government offices, and important military camps. Maps exist in these places, and Tang Zhen has indeed gained something before.
There should also be private maps in the hands of some special professionals among the people, but the accuracy cannot be guaranteed and it is more difficult to obtain.
If you want to get the map from these people, there are only two ways, buy it with a lot of money or rob it directly.
Going around still requires a lot of gold coins.
Tang Zhen secretly lamented that the things that were most useless to the Creator have now become necessities.
If I had known earlier, I would have worn a suit of gold armor and removed it to exchange for money. Wouldn't it have been much easier that way?
"Ergou, you can control the rune airship. I still have some things to do."
Tang Zhen greeted Ergou, handed him the control of the rune airship, and then walked to the airship's observation deck.
He held a piece of animal skin and an ocher red slate pen in his hand, looking at the scenery below and writing and drawing.
As fast as lightning, he quickly recorded the terrain he saw and made a top-down map.
When the painting is completed, the patterns on the animal skin disappear like steam, as if they had never existed.
But on the whiteboard map of the consciousness space, a slightly invisible black spot appeared. When enlarged, it was exactly the pattern that Tang Zhen had just painted.
"It really works!"
A smile appeared on the corner of Tang Zhen's mouth. The primitive and crude map had ridiculously high errors, which could not compare with the precise map he drew.
If this cannot be passed, it is simply unreasonable.
However, this kind of map also has disadvantages, that is, the area it accommodates is too small. If he continues to draw according to this method, Tang Zhen will only get a "line" in the end.
This "line" map is like useless, tasteless to eat and a pity to discard.
But so far, the Loucheng monks participating in the competition are all in a state of exploration, and everyone is confused about the future development.
In this case, it is even more necessary to actively explore and continuously collect intelligence.
If you can master useful information first, you can have an advantage in the competition. If you can always maintain this advantage, you will surely stand out among countless competitors.
“So during the rest of the trip, I can only paint non-stop, but I won’t feel bored...
It would be great if there was a dedicated painter who would be responsible for drawing maps, that would make it easier for me. "
Tang Zhen thought of this, turned around and glanced at Ergou, and found that he was seriously controlling the rune airship.
The other party was just a village gangster, but because he met him, he started a completely different life journey.
So there is no useless person in this world, it’s just that you haven’t found a position that suits you. Once you find it, your life and destiny will completely change!
Ergou was like this, and so was Tang Zhen. If he hadn't become a monk in Loucheng, he would have become a withered skeleton in the grave.
It is even less possible to travel across the vast world, see countless wonders, and control two powerful super forces.
What is a legend? I am a legend!
…
The next time is just a constant rush.
The rune airship is not a spaceship with the ability to move at high speed. It cannot even be compared with an ordinary airplane. Its moving speed is only a few dozen kilometers per hour.
But even so, for the indigenous people of this world, it is still a high-speed means of transportation.
Mountains and rivers on the ground are the biggest obstacle to travelers. Sometimes they even have to take detours, wasting a lot of time.
There are not so many things to do when flying in the air. As long as you don't encounter particularly bad weather and you don't have any problems, you can keep moving forward.
While heading towards his destination, Tang Zhen, in addition to drawing maps, also kept looking for traces of monsters.
The purpose of making the rune airship was to make it easier to find monsters and have more advantages.
Then, by fighting to support fighting, you can obtain a large amount of trophies and quickly improve your own strength.
Facts have proved that Tang Zhen's plan is feasible. It is precisely because of the existence of the rune airship that he can fight against thousands of Yuanling monks and finally escape unscathed.
In the early days of the competition, the rune airship was a rare weapon of war. Tang Zhen, who owned the rune airship, naturally had an advantage far beyond ordinary Loucheng monks.
Although his cultivation was sealed, Tang Zhen's experience was still there, and he could tell where there was something wrong with just a pair of eyes.
When passing a ruins, Tang Zhen suddenly stopped the painting brush in his hand and signaled Ergou to stop moving forward.
Although he didn't understand what Tang Zhen was going to do, Ergou still controlled the rune airship and slowly stopped above the ruins.
When he reached where Tang Zhen was, he immediately saw the scene below and knew why Tang Zhen stopped.
It turns out that in the castle-like ruins below, there are several figures trapped on the top of the dilapidated building. They look like they are adventurers.
The monsters around them were tall, like a combination of monsters and humans, and they were extremely fierce in armor and weapons.
Ergou has heard people talk about adventurers more than once. They are skilled and brave people who wander around dangerous areas all day long.
If you don't come back for a long time after leaving for a certain time, you may never return and die in the wilderness and ruins.
The adventurers in the ruins now encountered such a situation and were trapped by a large number of monsters.
You can tell by their looks that they won't be able to hold on for long, and they are just barely holding on for now.
"Sir, are you trying to save them?"
Ergou glanced twice and asked Tang Zhen.
"I want to kill monsters, saving people is just incidental, I have to distinguish the priorities."
Tang Zhen said slowly, without any emotion in his tone.
"What difference does it make?"
Ergou was a little confused, but his brain worked very well and he quickly understood what Tang Zhen meant.
If it weren't for the existence of monsters, Tang Zhen might not have stopped. What does the life and death of a group of adventurers have to do with him?
While the two were talking, the adventurers on the ground also discovered them. They were first shocked by the appearance of the rune airship, and then the hope of survival rose in their eyes.
They raised their heads and waved constantly, shouting for help to the sky.
Tang Zhen ignored the adventurers at all, but simply cleaned up and then walked to the cabin door.
After estimating the distance to the ground and setting aside enough rope, Tang Zhen jumped from the air.
Just when he was about to fall to the ground, the rope suddenly tightened and pulled Tang Zhen back.
If it is a flesh and blood body, this can definitely break the limb, but for an energy body, it will not have much impact at all.
"Uh-huh!"
A cold light flashed, and while Tang Zhen jumped down, he slashed directly at the monster in front of him with the long sword in his hand.
The monster, which was more than three meters tall, was split in half by Tang Zhen's sword, and colorful things lay on the ground.
"Bang!"
After landing, Tang Zhen slowly raised his head, with an unexpected smile on his face.
The energy reward for hunting monsters is surprisingly rich. It seems that I have found a treasure.
