My Empire War Game
Chapter 588 Sea Trade
Opening the book and flipping through it, this book records a vanished nation, and many buildings left by this nation are drawn in the book. These buildings give Su Lun the feeling of the Mayan civilization in the previous life.
The same advocacy of blood sacrifice, the same style of architecture, and the gods they believe in. The book in front of me has a strange totem pole painted on it, and an unknown god is on it. The whole totem pole is covered with blood, and there are blood in many places. It seems to have infiltrated it, and under the totem pole are countless slaves who have been beheaded.
These slaves were beheaded, blood flowed on the pyramid, and the gaps in that pyramid seemed to have been filled with blood, and under the pyramid, a large number of primitively dressed humans were constantly kneeling down.
There is also the logo of wind and rain on the totem pole, which means that they believe in a god of rain. The god of rain has no written records on other continents, but is revered in this civilization, and he symbolizes the harvest. From ancient times to the present, people have always been in awe of the gods in charge of the harvest.
Su Lun is not very cold about these gods. The consequences of these gods who have accepted the blood sacrifice are not very good. According to the division of the Arcane Empire, these belong to the natural gods. There is no good or evil in the first place, and they are very easy to be influenced by believers. The gods have a high chance of becoming evil gods in the end.
The gods recorded in these libraries are likely to have become evil gods. In addition to these materials, many disasters and various monsters that occurred in ancient times are also recorded here. After looking through some more, Su Lun found that these monsters seemed to be the sealed ancient evils.
It seems that although these mortals don't know the origin of those monsters, it doesn't prevent them from recording these disasters. It's just that these records have been regarded as fairy tales by ordinary people. Su Lun still got a lot of useful information from these stories, such as where these monsters were killed or defeated. The approximate location where these monsters were sealed can be found.
And in addition to these, you can also find the remains of many ancient cities, but I don't know what these ruins have left after thousands of years.
Because the people who came to the Eastern Continent this time were mainly to open up new shipping routes and trade, so Su Lun did not go to these places to search. Searching for relics sometimes depends on luck. If you are lucky, just dig a hole. It's not uncommon to spend a year or so if you're unlucky.
After staying in the library for two days, the fleet also completed the transaction during this time, and was fully loaded with various goods from Yancheng Port and was ready to return.
Most of the goods purchased from the Eastern Continent this time were tea, cotton cloth, silk fabrics, porcelain, spices, pearls, etc., as well as some magical materials. Between two hundred and fifty thousand kinnars.
Originally, Hathaway wanted to buy a large number of shark beads, but there are no sharks living here in Yancheng Port, and shark beads are not produced. Only a small amount of shark beads are produced in the south of the mainland. After all, the number of sharks is too small.
Because of the hydrological environment and other factors, the Eastern Continent is rich in pearls, and the quality is better than that of the Western Continent. Although I did not buy shark pearls, I purchased a large number of pearls this time, and some of them were magic pearls. Medium and low quality enchanted pearls can purify some medicines, side effects in realm medicines, or neutralize toxins. High-quality enchanted pearls can be used to make enchanted items, extraordinary equipment, and can also be used to store spells, which are very popular among wizards.
There are also a lot of silk fabrics in the Eastern Continent. This is also the best silk fabric producing area besides elves. After all, the forest of elves has been closed for more than a thousand years. The number of half-elves is too small, and the production of silk is also limited. Many silks come from The Eastern Continent sold in the past, and of course some were sold by the drow elves in the underground world.
However, the drows usually sell silk stockings, and almost all nobles are crazy about them, and even those witches cannot resist the temptation of stockings. This stuff is expensive. On the surface, it seems that the surface world is very hostile to the drow elves, and they claim to cut off all trade with them, but most of them are talking about it. It is easy to know whether they have traded with the underground world, just look at those women You can tell if you wear stockings or not.
In addition to these, five people who came this time stayed in Yancheng Port to build a warehouse. The warehouse will purchase materials from Yancheng Steel, and will also sell various materials from Zhenbei City. Zhenbei City's paper, amethyst honey, and sugar are very popular here. The sales of vodka can only be said to be mediocre, but the sales of rum are not bad.
Amethyst honey is the most popular, and the wizard organization here in Yancheng Lake directly expressed that they want to buy all the amethyst honey. Although Su Lun was tempted, he still rejected them. After all, the warehouse built in Salt Lake City still needs amethyst honey to make a name for itself.
There are still many advantages to building a warehouse in Salt Lake Port. When the fleet arrives again, it will be shipped directly back to the mainland. This will save a lot of time and at the same time collect intelligence on the Eastern Continent.
It took a few days, and after the fleet completed its supplies, it sailed back again. In addition to the three ships from Deepwater City, Yancheng Port also sent two armed merchant ships to follow them this time. These people were going to Deepwater City for trading, and they also planned to build a warehouse in Deepwater Port.
The return journey is slower than before. After all, it was downwind when I came, but now it has become headwind. Fortunately, the sailing technology in this era is already very good, and headwinds can also be sailed, but the return time is longer than with the wind. Much slower.
The five ships were lucky this time, and did not encounter those sahuagin. It may be that they suffered heavy losses in the last battle and could no longer live here. The sahuagin also has many enemies in the ocean. Once it declines, those enemies will not let go of this good opportunity.
There are also a large number of intelligent races living in the ocean, such as kuo-tao fish people, mermaids, Naga sea people, sahuayu people, sea monsters, etc. These races are not very friendly and harmonious with each other, and in the depths of the ocean, they still live There are some extremely terrifying sea monsters, and even the heirs of Dagon among them.
Dagon is also a very dangerous creature, even the gods are afraid of him.
He represents evil, chaos, madness, and blasphemy. It is said that his existence can be traced back to the ancient gods. This is a very powerful and evil creature, one of the most powerful demon lords, known as the king of the deep sea, The god of monsters, the shadow of the ocean, is the sworn enemy of the sea god.
The name Dagon is not static. According to the research of wizards, Dagon was originally derived from a god of an ancient god. This name is more like a title, and only the most powerful of them can be called Dagon.
It looks like a creature mixed with fish, mollusks and moray eels. Although Dagon is evil, chaotic and very dangerous, there are still his cults in coastal areas, and many pirates believe in this creature. Legend has it that There was a pirate leader who was favored by him, became his subordinate, gained great power, and gained the ability to command sea monsters, but this ability cost a lot, the power of Dagon will change the appearance of human beings, become Gotta get close to the sea monster.
For example, grow octopus-like tentacles, or mollusc carapaces, sharp claws and so on. And because of accepting the power of Dagon, he will be repelled by other gods, can no longer land on land, and can only drift in the ocean forever.
But even so, some people are still willing to accept it, and on many overseas islands, many indigenous savages still worship Dagon as a god, and this worship has even lasted for thousands of years.
The current Dagon lives in the dark sea of the bottomless abyss. The records left by the wizards record this powerful demon lord. Some natives will fight with other creatures ( Primarily bog giants, half-fish creatures), they believe that this ritual will give their offspring great strength.
Of course, not all sea monsters believe in Dagon. The ancient arcanists studied and classified sea monsters, which can be roughly divided into several types.
The first is the tentacled sea monster, which resembles a giant octopus in appearance, and most of them are followers of Dagon. The second type is fish sea monsters, such as dragon whales, giant kuns, dragon turtles, etc. These sea monsters belong to special demigods, and they are sea monsters of the neutral camp. Generally, as long as they are not close to them, they will rarely attack actively.
The third type is the multi-head system, the most representative of which is Hydra, a part of the sea monster that is usually the servant of the sea goddess. The fourth type of sea monster is the dinosaur family. This kind of giant sea monster originated from the father of dinosaurs, a powerful god who specially created a giant beast in order to expand his power into the ocean. This monster is also called For God's evil.
The fleet repaired and replenished some water sources on the islands marked by Su Lun before, and then continued to sail towards the deep-water port. Su Lun has decided to send people to set up transfer stations on the islands after returning, to provide water and food for the fleet, and to shelter the ships from storms. After all, apart from pirates and sea monsters, the biggest risks of sea voyages are shipwrecks such as lost and storms.
With these islands, at least in the event of a storm, it can provide a safe haven for the fleet and reduce the occurrence of shipwrecks. This is very important for maritime trade. In this era, there is almost a one-fifth probability of accident in maritime trade. Every time you go to sea, you basically prepare for the worst. Sailors in this era are brave.
All the way back to Shenshui Port smoothly. At this time, it has been more than two months since the fleet left, and earth-shaking changes have taken place in Shenshui City.
