After everyone boarded the ocean-going ship, the ship set off on the port with its whistle blowing.
Song Ziyu left Li Xian and some members of the Blood Fang Team in Silver Dragon City to be responsible for maintaining the safety of his own territory, and entrusted Zhou Shiyuan's Dongming Chamber of Commerce to take full responsibility for the development.
The ship headed east and plunged into the terrifying and unfamiliar mysterious ocean.
"No, we are sailing in the wrong direction!" Not far from the ship, Vermeer discovered the problem.
"what do you want to say?"
Song Ziyu asked.
Vermeer explained: "According to our existing nautical charts, we need to sail along the coast, then arrive at the mouth of the strait in the southern sea, cross the mouth of the strait, enter the western sea, and then go all the way west to return to the Old World continent... …”
"I understand what you're saying, but have you ever thought about the problem that it would be easier for us to go east?"
Song Ziyu said with a smile.
"Why... why?" Vermeer didn't understand at all and was stunned on the spot.
Song Ziyu patiently took out his tea cup, then drew two dots on it and explained: "There are two ways to get from point A to point B. One is to go from the west but take a detour, and the other is to go directly from the east. Let’s go, it’s easier this way.”
Having said this, Song Ziyu said calmly: "I know you don't believe me because you don't have a navigation chart, but there is a first time for everything. We didn't believe it back then."
"What's the principle?" Vermeer asked curiously.
Song Ziyu thought for a while and said the ground-breaking words: "Because the earth is round."
"You fart! The world is obviously square!" Vermeer said.
"Okay, everything you said is right." Song Ziyu suddenly remembered a truth, that is, don't try to reason with women, women are right in everything they say... This truth also applies to female zombies.
Soong Ziyu simply ignored Vermeer's entanglement, but Vermeer kept asking for changes in the route. Soong Ziyu was so frustrated that he had no choice but to vow to Vermeer: "If we can't reach the Old World within a month, , I’ll twist off the head and use it as a chamber pot for you.”
"What's the use of your head! I want to go home!" Vermeer said with a sad face: "The sea is very scary, please don't run around..."
Song Ziyu said hehely: "It's not that scary, just believe me."
While he was talking, suddenly there was lightning and thunder in the sky, and the 10,000-ton ocean-going ship experienced violent turbulence.
"what happened?"
Song Ziyu used the intercom to ask about the captain's room.
"Report, the ship is about to pass through a thunderstorm area, and there will be strong winds and turbulence. Please be prepared to prevent collision." The first mate's voice came back from the captain's room.
In order to help Vermeer overcome his fear, Song Ziyu simply took Vermeer to the captain's cabin. With the wide visibility of the captain's cabin, he witnessed with his own eyes the impact of lightning, thunder and thunder tsunamis on ocean-going ships.
However, unlike wooden sailboats, the giant ship with a steel body shows its pride in fighting in the ocean.
After enduring the initial terror, Vermeer finally stopped being so panicked and became calm.
"Do you think we can really reach the Old World?"
Vermeer asked.
Song Ziyu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Don't worry, you can definitely get there!"
"If you can't get there, I will twist off your head and use it as a chamber pot." Vermeer said with a blushing face, "Although I don't need a chamber pot!"
After crossing a distance of nearly five thousand nautical miles and lasting fourteen days, after everyone vomited fish, shrimp, seafood and suffered a lot of turbulence, the ship finally arrived at the shore of the Old World continent.
This journey subverted Vermeer's world view.
Vermeer, who had always believed that the sky was round and the earth was round, never imagined that the world was actually a sphere.
It turns out that you can return to your homeland by sailing in the opposite direction.
And the distance is obviously shorter!
Such subversions made Vermeer feel more and more that Song Ziyu had many secrets hidden in him.
We must find out the origin of this guy, Vermeer secretly made up his mind.
Heading north along the coastline, we finally entered a port.
The port was facing a formidable enemy. A group of clan warriors surrounded the port, and several clan generals were on high alert.
However, the weapons of these people cannot pose any threat to the armored giant ship at all, and cannot even serve as a deterrent.
"It's your turn to negotiate." Song Ziyu said to Vermeer.
Facts have proved that the saint's sign works really well.
As soon as Vermeer came out, he immediately struck up a conversation with the clan nobles at the port. After asking, Song Ziyu learned that this was a seaport called "Pola".
Those stationed here are just a weak branch of the clan. As for their surnames, they are completely worth mentioning.
Song Ziyu landed at the port of Pula, leaving some men to look after the ship, while the others began to head inland.
The world in front of you is a beautiful world composed of deserts and oases.
The sky is high and the sea is vast, the shrubs and jungles are lush and full of life. You can see migrating elk herds, chasing sand plain lions and groups of ferocious hyenas all around.
Huge mammoths wander among the coastal riverbanks, and the fertile soil is filled with baobab trees...
"This world is very peaceful." Song Ziyu couldn't help but admire.
"Really?" Vermeer was noncommittal.
Compared with the "depression" brought by the bushes and primeval forests of the New World, this place seems much vaster, and the countless beasts, animals and plants bring a different kind of vitality.
This put Song Ziyu in a rare good mood.
However, this good mood was quickly broken.
As the team headed inland, Song Ziyu saw thousands of enslaved human slaves!
These human slaves were organized into teams to dig huge striped stones in the mountains and river banks!
These striped stones, which often weigh thousands of tons, use felled logs as vehicles, and are pulled in the north direction by trackers.
On the ground, billowing smoke and dust are hundreds of construction teams.
Among these teams, wandering are the ferocious zombie supervisors!
These zombies ride on various domesticated mounts, holding bloody whips in their hands. Human slaves who are a little lazy or can't keep up with the rhythm will be whipped crazily.
The bodies of many human slaves are covered with scars left after being whipped.
Even though Song Ziyu could look at many things calmly, the scene in front of him still made him unable to calm down.
It is difficult to completely summarize the scene before me, but it was probably nothing more than the Auschwitz concentration camp back then.
