Early morning hours.
When Gu Nie woke up, she felt refreshed.
The fatigue of riding the train for days on end is gone.
After arriving at Harutev seaport yesterday.
Under the guidance of Lao Qiaomu, Gunie checked into this hotel called "Long Travel Hometown".
This night's sleep was quite peaceful.
Open the hotel room curtains.
Taking advantage of the high-rise building, the sight that caught his eye caused a smile to appear on Gunie's face.
In the front right of the field of vision is the vast ocean as far as the eye can see.
The extremely wide harbor area is lined with various types of large and small merchant ships on both sides of the piers.
Even on both sides of the river entering the sea in front of the hotel, there are a large number of densely packed merchant ships.
From the size and number of so many merchant ships, you can feel the prosperity of Harutov Seaport.
The Harutov Seaport is lined with rows of buildings, and there are many buildings with more than ten stories high.
As for Suge Ruins City, there are only a handful of ten-story buildings.
These white buildings make the entire Harutov harbor look like a white beach.
At a glance from the ruins city of Suge, Gurne, you can still see the suburbs.
In Harutev Harbor, what you can see at a glance is an endless white beach-like building complex.
Moreover, Gunet saw many steam cars on the street below.
Compared with the development process of the previous life when the internal combustion engine, a machine that burns oil more efficiently, replaced the steam engine, in this steampunk world, there is no sign of it at all.
The reason is very simple, that is, high-quality extraordinary metal alloys, as well as extraordinary materials with extraordinary characteristics such as "high magic source coal" and "extraordinary heavy water" can fully meet the energy supply of steam engines. .
It is said that a "mithril-level closed energy steam engine" that is about the size of a bucket and basically does not allow heat to escape, plus two large-capacity extraordinary storage machines that store "high magic source coal" and "extraordinary heavy water",
It can easily make a steam car run 24 hours a day for a whole week.
And if you exercise normally, you may not be able to consume all your energy in a month.
If you are willing to invest more resources, insert more extraordinary storage machines that store "high magic source coal" and "extraordinary heavy water" into the input port.
This time will increase linearly with the number of "High Magic Source Coal" and "Extraordinary Heavy Water" extraordinary storage machines you insert.
Replenishing "High Magic Source Coal" and "Extraordinary Heavy Water" is also very simple by driving to the corresponding "Energy Station" and replenishing it.
The birth of extraordinary storage machinery, extraordinary products with more profound energy, and the highly developed craftsmanship of alchemy machinery. Let this world have completely embarked on the path of using "extraordinary steam engines" as the core of mechanical power.
Gunye even heard that some crazy alchemists proposed the Steam 2.0 plan.
This group of crazy guys want to use the energy array to absorb the source power between heaven and earth to make a "source energy steam engine."
These crazy alchemists don't even want to use coal materials anymore.
If they want to pour water directly, they let the machine run.
It must be said that in every era, there is no shortage of people with radical ideas.
If in the previous life, Gu Nie would have said, "As long as there is a peanut, you will not be so drunk."
But in this world.
Even magical and extraordinary species like "mechanical creatures" exist.
Who dares to say that the "source energy steam engine" is not good
In this magical and extraordinary time, anything can happen.
When Gunie had just finished washing, he was rubbing his belly and preparing to find a place to have some breakfast and drink a cup of coffee.
"Bang bang bang..."
There was a slight knock on the door.
Looking through the peephole, it was Lao Qiaomu, Diana and others.
At this time, the three demon hunters were fully dressed and seemed to be preparing to leave.
"Kaka..."
Guine opened the door.
"Senior, what are you..." Gu Nie asked.
"Well, we are going to set off on the demon hunting ship." Old Qiaomu said with a smile.
"You're in such a hurry, why don't you leave after a day or two of rest?"
"We would like to rest, but the other demon hunters will not wait for us. We will leave one day later. There will be a large number of sea undead and even demon leaders hunted by them, so it is better to leave early."
"By the way, this thing is for you."
As he spoke, Old Qiaomu handed over two palm-sized cards.
Gunie took it and looked at it. One had "Arcane Shooting" written on it and the other had "Sea Demon Ship" written on it.
"I marked the address and information on the back."
"Of course, I still have to tell you some things face to face."
"Arcane Shooting is an older compound spell. You should first go to several major chambers of commerce to see if they have it."
"However, these chambers of commerce have always only been in the business of making money. There is a high probability that they will not sell spells that have been eliminated, such as arcane shooting."
"Even if there is, it will be buried deep in the warehouse. If you don't have strong enough connections, you probably won't be able to get it."
"If there is nothing at the Chamber of Commerce, you can go to the location I gave you where the arcane shooting spell may be."
"Remember, the owner of this position, 'Old Sam,' has always recognized money rather than people. The people under him are ruthless people who kill without batting an eye. However, Old Sam still has a reputation for doing business. Yes, but you still have to be careful.”
"Thank you, senior, for informing me. I will be careful." Gu Nie nodded with a cautious expression.
"Also, if you want to go to sea, I suggest you buy a Sea Demon Ship."
Old Qiaomu continued.
"Of course, the official does not allow any organization to sell the Sea Demon Ship to the public. The official only allows you to buy ordinary merchant ships."
"Go to the address I gave you and find a man named Yassen Howell. I heard that he had returned to Harutov Seaport a few days ago."
"If I don't find him, there's nothing I can do."
"But if you find him, tell me he was the one I sent you to."
"He might be able to help you find the Sea Demon Ship."
"At the same time, you have to remember that there are many people talking in seaports, and the various forces, large and small, are extremely mixed."
"There are even many vicious pirates who have disguised their identities and look like extraordinary sailors. In fact, they are murderous and impoverished thugs."
"A thug who kills without blinking an eye?" Gu Nie rubbed his fingers slightly and thought secretly.
"If you can, you have to find a way to win over the man named Arsene Howell."
"He will recruit a group of reliable extraordinary sailors for you. At least he will not let you be tied up and hanged on the deck by those sailors on the second day at sea."
After pondering for a while, Gunie nodded slightly.
"Senior, I remember everything you said."
"Well, Yuanhaishen will protect you." Old Qiaomu said before leaving.
After Lao Qiaomu and others left, Gunie returned to the room.
Looking at the horizon where the sky and water meet in the distance, Gunie narrowed his eyes and thought slightly.
The ocean in this Age of Discovery was obviously more complicated than Gune had imagined.
Fortunately, Gunie already had a lot of preparations.
