Chapter eight hundred and thirty-ninth underground exploration (tenth)
On the afternoon of April 1st, the study room of the Protectorate Mansion.
Ouyang Shuo summoned the Director of Industry Chen Bingguang and asked: "Old Chen, how long will it take for the Z1 warship developed by the Shipbuilding Department to be launched?"
Although Mr. Chen was a little surprised, he replied in detail: "The main body of the Yuhuang has been built and will be able to be launched in the dock in another week. After the launch, the navigation test will be carried out, which will take about one month."
The Yuhuang was the first Z1 warship built with the black dragon bones, and it was Ouyang Shuo's new flagship. In the second half of Gaia's fourth year, Ouyang Shuo planned to take the Yuhuang to another ocean-going voyage.
"A month?" Ouyang Shuo frowned and asked, "Can you speed up the progress a little?"
"Are you in a hurry to use it?" Mr. Chen was puzzled.
Ouyang Shuo shook his head and introduced the mission of establishing a country in a general way.
Mr. Chen suddenly realized, with a noticeable excitement on his face and said, "This is a good thing. Don't worry, I will urge the Shipbuilding Department to speed up the progress and strive to complete all tests of the Yuhuang within half a month."
Ouyang Shuo nodded with a smile, "That's thank you for your hard work, Mr. Chen."
"Not hard, no hard!"
Mr. Chen's steps were a little floating when he left. For these scientists, it was also very interesting to be able to witness the quiet rise of a huge empire in the game and participate in it personally.
After seeing off Mr. Chen, Ouyang Shuo's expression was not relaxed. In the afternoon, three national establishment tasks had been launched one by one, and Ouyang Shuo who was supposed to be arranged has also been arranged.
Among the three tasks of establishing a country, the task one [Four Barbarians Surrender] conquering the alien race is the most uncertain, the time is uncertain, the location is uncertain, and even the goal is not 100%.
Ouyang Shuo has entrusted Cao Shen, the governor of Dongchuan County, to cooperate with the Honglu Temple to secretly go to Shu to contact the Qiang tribes in Qiang County to see if several large Qiang tribes could be guided to settle in Shanhaicheng. With Gaia's nature, if the number of Qiang people introduced by Shanhaicheng was too small, it would definitely not be recognized.
Mission 2 [Wanxiang Update] is the most brain-burning one.
The most controlled one at present is the research and development of the Z1 warship. Fortunately, academic breakthroughs have also emerged.
Ouyang Shuo thought of the "Tianji Ten Calculations" sent by Song Jia before. He had handed over the "Tianji Ten Calculations" to Southwest University and instructed everyone to solve the Ten Calculations of Heavenly Secrets together.
Southwest University has top federal scientists in charge, and they will definitely be able to find another way and come up with other solutions within the scope of ancient mathematics.
If it can be achieved, it will definitely be an academic breakthrough.
This is a coincidence.
As for the last new technology, I am still confused at the moment. Ouyang Shuo found Liu Mo to see if the No. 7 Research Institute could combine Western alchemy and tinker with a new technology.
It all takes time.
Mission 3 [Congratulations from all directions] should be the shortest time and the least in a hurry.
Ouyang Shuo has instructed the Honglu Temple to start making invitations. When the mission one and mission two have a clear idea, he will send them out one by one.
The Culture Department is also preparing for the throne ceremony on the day of its founding, and is busy but not in chaos.
Before this, Honglu Temple needed to move around.
Now that the news that Shanhai City is about to establish a country has spread throughout the wilderness, I am afraid that someone will watch Shanhai City jokes. Ouyang Shuo cannot be frustrated at this time, and the momentum of sweeping across the Eight Desolations must be maintained.
The throne ceremony is the moment when Shanhai City shows its influence.
…………
In the following days, the mission of establishing a country had not made much progress, which made Ouyang Shuo quite troubled.
On April 5, the leader of the [Blood Shadow Alliance] found Ouyang Shuo when the bright moon shines on the river.
Recently, the headquarters of [Blood Shadow Alliance] has been successfully moved to the satellite city, which has been officially settled. A formal authorization agreement has also been signed between Shanhai City and [Blood Shadow Alliance].
Like the Wangcheng Satellite City, all the real estate and shops in the Shanhaicheng Satellite City are handed over to the [Blood Shadow Alliance] for operation. The difference is that Shanhaicheng has to draw 60% of the profit, which is one percent higher than the Wangcheng.
Based on the current scale of the satellite city's players, the General Administration of Finance roughly calculated that 60% of the profits and commercial taxes, the satellite city can bring nearly 300,000 gold coins to Shanhai City every month.
It’s not that Ouyang Shuo is unintentional. If he wants, he can arrange for the territorial officials to operate the matter, and the profits will be even greater. It’s just that Ouyang Shuo adheres to the principle of win-win, so he has not intervened in the satellite city affairs.
Sometimes the hands cannot stretch too long.
Besides, when it comes to managing adventure players, Shanhaicheng is not good at it, and [Blood Shadow Alliance] is an expert.
When the bright moon shines on the river, Ouyang Shuo was mainly to apply for a permanent army from Shanhai City to assist the [Blood Shadow Alliance] in managing the city.
Gaia will give away 10,000 NPC troops to guard every Royal City satellite city. The territory satellite city does not have such treatment, so it can only be arranged by the lord.
After hearing the request of the bright moon shining on the river, Ouyang Shuo smiled and said, "Don't worry. The Fifth Leopard Army Corps will be stationed outside the outskirts of Tianjing City. Then a division will be stationed in the satellite city."
"That's great!" Mingyue Zhao Dajiang was very happy. Mingyue Zhao Dajiang was convinced by the quality of Shanhaicheng army, and was probably stronger than the NPC army that Gaia had produced.
After talking about the main business, the two of them talked about the open underground world.
Ouyang Shuo asked curiously: "How is it, what is the situation in the underground world?"
With the opening of nine satellite cities at the same time, relevant information about the underground world was occasionally revealed on the forum. Gaia even followed the public opinion and specially opened an underground world column on the forum.
As Gaia promotes, monsters in the Underworld completely crush the wilderness monsters in terms of quantity, type, or even level.
However, the current underground world is still a forbidden zone for ordinary players. We have to wait until the giant union opens up the land before the large troops can pour in. Otherwise, the group will be destroyed in minutes.
Even the elite group that opened up the land suffered heavy losses. In the words of the guild bosses, every line of the map they drew was filled with flesh and blood by the elite group, which was very tragic.
Of course, the giant union is not about pursuing land. As pioneers, whether they kill the boss or collect rare materials, they are all the first to make money.
Any adventure is the first encounter, so they do not suffer any losses.
Ouyang Shuo asked about the situation of the underground world when the bright moon shines on the river. It was because the underground world was extremely huge, and the monsters in different royal cities were different.
Mingyue shone Dajiang with a smile and said, "It's really cruel. If you have the chance, I suggest you go down and take a look." As he said, some interesting things about the elite group's land clearance were briefly mentioned.
Ouyang Shuo's heart moved. He was also very curious about the mysterious underground world. He nodded and said, "Okay, just treat it as a relaxing place."
Since the mission of founding a country has not made much progress yet, Ouyang Shuo doesn't have to stay in Shanhai City all the time. Maybe there will be some adventure in the underground world.
Don’t forget that Ouyang Shuo is now a person with deep blessings.
"Okay, what are you doing? I can make some arrangements in advance." Mingyuezhao Dajiang said with a smile.
Ouyang Shuo nodded and said, "Just come to the day after tomorrow!"
"no problem!"
The two chatted for a while and each parted.
***************
April 7, Satellite City.
Ouyang Shuo suddenly appeared in the satellite city with three thousand Shenwu Guards, which immediately caused a sensation. There were countless players watching the fun, and they all wanted to see this legendary giant.
Fortunately, the [Blood Shadow Alliance] has been prepared and arranged a full 5,000 players to isolate a passage. The satellite city is equivalent to a miniature version of Shanhai City, so Ouyang Shuo naturally has no interest in visiting.
After entering the satellite city, the group did not stop and went directly to the entrance of the underground world. Mingyue shone Dajiang specially arranged an elite team as a guide, and the leader was called the Broken Love Thieves.
"Your Majesty, my name is the broken thief coach!"
The broken thief ran over with a smile, making her look familiar.
As the [Blood Shadow Alliance] entered the satellite city, millions of members spontaneously regarded themselves as members of Shanhai City. When they saw Ouyang Shuo, they directly called him "the king".
In fact, for today's players, it is a great honor to be able to talk to Ouyang Shuo. The broken thief coach was chosen as the guide, and I don't know how many brothers I envy.
Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly, "Please trouble you, I'll call you a thief!"
The broken thief smiled with him, but didn't know how to reply, so he turned around and ran ahead to lead the way. I think there is an unusual story behind this unique name.
The entrance steps are made of stone. The light becomes darker the lower the downwards. The steps are wet, covered with a layer of shallow moss, and the walls on both sides are covered with thick vines, which are very tenacious.
After walking for about ten minutes, a faint sense of coldness came from the air, which made people shudder unconsciously. The light around it had become extremely dark, similar to the dawn covered by hazy moonlight.
Ouyang Shuo suddenly thought of the legendary underworld, which was probably the case. Walking down, the whistling sound of wind came from the depths of the ground, accompanied by the cold air, which was even more terrifying.
When the Shenwuwei saw him, they all looked solemn and were ready to fight.
"Your Majesty, you'll be here soon!" said the thief in front of him suddenly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a dark and terrifying light suddenly coming from the cold light, illuminating the dark and terrifying space slightly, and at least he could look around normally.
Too.
If the underground world is really dark, how can players explore? You can’t keep carrying a torch, that’s unrealistic.
The group walked down less than twenty meters before they arrived at an open space.
Looking around, I am afraid no one would have imagined that it was underground. There were ten football fields in the open space under my feet. Outside the open space, there were ravines and huge passages leading to the unknown world. The howling cold wind rushed out from the giant passages, and you could vaguely hear the sound of gurgling water.
Chapter completed!
