Chapter 311 The underwater city “Herakrian”
In the following days, rising winds, scudding clouds above the Black Sea.
Cyrus secretly dispatched several expedition ships led by third rank transcender to the new continent in a hurry, the exact whereabouts unknown.
Countries with overseas colonies, taking advantage of the best sea conditions of the year, organized their last autumn voyages with some trembling with fear.
No one will be in trouble with gold coin, even more how is the continent countries rely heavily on blood transfusion from the colony, any chance of large-scale navigation in a year is impossible to pass.
Just.
Because no one knows what kind of far-reaching impact the addition of a Goddess in the Black Sea will have on this sea, the specifications of the escort fleet are all beyond the past.
Even the Level 4 battleships, which are usually used as flagships of escort fleets, are now dispatched in multiple numbers (no matter how much attention is paid to escort fleets, the level of warships will not be too high, as escort ships are not as fast as merchant ships) It would be too outrageous, except for the quasi-Legendary).
The kingdom of Pharetis is of course impossible exceptions.
The signal flag is waving.
“Pull anchor! Set sail!”
As His Royal Highness said, the window period was too rare, and Alwin and Cape Storm could not be repaired for too long when they returned to Newern Harbor. time.
Reunited with the family for a short time. After the battleship is maintained and maintained, it will move non-stop towards the new continent with the already organized merchant ship fleet.
Also accompanied by a Level 4 ship “Endeavour” and a escort fleet composed of three Level 5 cruise ships, as well as twenty-five large and small merchant ships, the total number of grandiose ships Thirty ships were reached!
Even before his departure, Ambrose, who stayed in the Kingdom of Taro to help the local church stabilize the faith of the people, could not come back, nor did other friends in Newern Harbor have time to gather.
And after their escort fleet arrives in the new continent, it will be on duty with the last group of navies stationed there. It may take half a year to return to Newern Harbor, which is next year. It’s spring.
Woohoo
The white sails that seemed to be connected slowly sailed out of the port.
But it is far from comparable to Cyrus’ “Treasure Grand Fleet”. Without the strength of the Overlord level, they would not dare to organize a fleet that is too large to sway the market.
And because of the relative barrenness of the kingdom’s colonies, compared with the cargo of Cyrus traveling back and forth with Cyrus (mainly gold, silver and other precious metals, and expensive ink tree dyes), both in quantity and value Also far inferior.
They will travel north of the new continent in about two months before the end of the final window of the year, riding the Tesla Current, which turns back toward the new continent, in the Trident Current.
It was also the colony of Pharretis and most of the Tulip member states.
Because the direction of the ocean current is from the relatively safe mainland to the new continent, and the temperature of the ocean current on the return journey has also dropped a lot, there is almost no need to worry about too dangerous demonized creatures moving in it.
Of course, Alwin doesn’t forget to fill his “Cape Storm” with various goods, such as industrial textiles and the most sought-after guns of the new continent, although it is blatantly smuggled, but he has the right to not expire. void, isn’t it?
The other side.
After several urgent consultations between Faretis and the high-level officials of the Kingdom of Taylor, it was announced that most of the stolen goods had been returned to the “Netherlands Bank Group”.
The actual amount returned secretly only accounts for 60% of the total lost, which is the result of the unimaginable large “security fee” paid by the bank group.
But even so, the directors of the bank group headed by the “former chairman” Joel are already deeply grateful.
Everyone is an adult, and the guardian of the kingdom is not the guardian of their home and nursing home. Although the accident happened on the territory of the Kingdom of Taro, it does not mean that the guardian of the kingdom is Jin Bumei’s public servant.
The willingness to trade part of it is already based on the “friendship” of hundreds of years.
For the current banking group, the gold and silver that can be earned without it is a trivial matter, but these unique and unmatched things are the key to restoring the credit of the banking group!
As for the remaining 40%, of course, it has been divided up by the two countries.
It is up to them to decide which to return and which to retain.
The banking group is adamant about neutrality, but the two countries have their own positions.
The items of allies or close neutral forces will be refunded at a higher price, and by the way, they will also earn a favor, and the ownership of the items still belongs to their own people. And the treasures of Cyrus, Sark, Atlan, etc., which are hostile or competitive, are of course directly accepted by them.
Even the bank group can’t say anything wrong about this situation. In the case that the Taro Kingdom itself was also attacked by sea monsters and suffered heavy losses, this result is already better than being looted by Hudgens. Strengthened countless times.
Even the latest board of directors of the bank group has decided that after the sigh of relief, the headquarters will be rebuilt in the Kingdom of Taylor.
By the way, significantly increase investment in the kingdoms of Pharetis and Taero.
The advantage of not having any political orientation is that they can do business in the world smoothly, but they also lack the highest-end battle strength that only the secular ruling class has.
After experiencing the catastrophic event this time, they have come to their senses and are ready to implement the first step plan to win the fourth rank title protection, using the means they are best at – money to clear the way!
Even though the wealth this thing is of little use for fourth rank titles, the kingdom they live in will never be too much.
Even at the cost of losing some customers forever!
As for, why not find a wild fourth rank transcender?
Regardless of whether there is such a presence on the continent, or whether it can be exposed to the sight of the church.
Just one point, if you don’t care, you won’t care about the rules. The one who is most afraid to invite back is not the Guardian, but the hungry wolf that eats people.
apart from this.
In view of the serious accidental injury caused to the Taro Kingdom by this incident, and the most severely damaged water city, Nisk, was almost razed to the ground. Spontaneous Kill Order!
Anyone who provides clues will receive a high bounty, and whoever kills them, whether they are Tulip Union nationals or not, will receive extremely generous rewards from the Union.
Even the biggest victim of this incident, the Kingdom of Taro, also sent the young and powerful “Lightning Thunder Halberd” to prepare to search the sea, swearing to let the lucky one escape from the “rose sword saint”. Hudgens paid the price.
However.
For the rest of the time, Huggins and his pirates were once again disappeared without a trace after the “Moby Dick” massacre.
Everyone understands that, just like he was sheltered by the “Mother of Sea Monsters” last time, Hudgens, who was sheltered by “Sea Demoness” this time, is also impossible to be found.
Under this circumstance, the situation on the sea is as expected by the high-level officials of various human kingdoms, and waves that cannot be ignored are slowly emerging.
The Black Sea, which completely separates the new, south and old continents, presents an incomparable gigantic long and narrow S shape.
There are not many islands in the vast ocean.
However, the most prominent feature of this marine underwater landform is that there is an S-shaped ridge that also runs from north to south, which is called the “Middle Black Sea Ridge”.
In other words, the Black Sea is not actually the deepest at the center, but is shallow, deep, shallow, deep, and shallow starting from the land.
The lair of the “Mother of Sea Monsters” is also the most active place for sea monsters in the Black Sea.
In the vicinity of the Summers Trench to the northwest of the first turn of the S shape, a triangular area of at least 500 kilometers is an absolute forbidden area for human beings.
Fortunately, it is not on the main route of continental intercommunication. A little attention has little effect on human shipping.
But.
In the S-shaped “Middle Black Sea Ridge”, north of the center, there is a huge “sea basin” that suddenly sinks down. No one knows how deep the “sea basin” is.
I only know that standing on the boat and looking down, it is a pitch black like Bottomless Abyss, which is completely different from the sea at other locations on the mid-ridge.
Because of this particularity.
After the opening of the Great Voyage Age, the Cyrus explorers who first discovered the new continent through this place gave it the name “Eye of the Black Sea” and “Origin of the Ocean”, thinking that it was almost located in the Black Sea. The central place is likely to be the original source of the entire sea!
But they don’t know.
In ancient times, it already had its own name: “Eye of the Storm”!
And it was named after its former owner, the Black Sea Goddess Hipponoi!
This is also very normal. For the ordinary person class, three hundred years is enough to witness the rise and fall of a country, not to mention a name lost in the pile of historical papers.
However, from now on, humans will slowly remember this name.
Because, its owner has returned.
hu hu hu hu
The Eye of the Storm, which has been silent for three hundred years since its owner left, has begun to gradually recover, although it is far from changing the color of the sea and sky as it once did. , but also steadily strengthened little by little.
Maybe it will have little impact on maritime navigation in a short period of time, but as the power of Goddess in the Black Sea gradually radiates, no one can ignore this unnoticeable influence in the future.
Like the Summers Trench belonging to the “mother of sea monsters”!
Above all, as Cyrus once took to discover the new continent.
If you draw a straight line between the “Kingdom of Cyrus” and the “Yellow Golden Sea”, the huge “sea basin” called the eye of the storm is exactly at the center point of the line segment.
Like a deadly nail, it was firmly nailed to the seven inches of Cyrus’ existing route!
Deep in the ocean basin.

A great beluga whale with white light on its body, led a group of humanoid creatures with gills, scales and webs behind it, from a huge round The edge of the majestic city wrapped in a blister-shaped dome slowly swims past.
Although this underwater city is left with only a fragment of ruins, it can be seen from the scale of ten kilometers in diameter that it used to be prosperous!
This is the once holy residence of Hipponoi, the underwater city “Herakrian”!
After 300 years, there are finally people here again.
A large number of nine-fingered men who originally belonged to pirates but are now under Goddess’s command to prepare for the raging waves are busy in the ruins.
Clean up the original ruins little by little, and slowly restore the place to its original appearance.
However.
In addition to these humans, there are also quite a few non-human beings active here.
Has long hair as thick as seaweed, ears replaced by fins, sharp teeth, and looks like a sea monster of a beautiful woman;
Tall and strong with fish gills, A torrent murloc with scales and webs;
The shortest is more than three meters, the skin of azure is covered with strange patterns, and there are storm djinn that flicker all the time;
Even the body is translucent dim-blue, dressed throughout the ages, like a drowning soul composed of fog and water.
Of course, there are also a group of wild sea monsters that are not ruled by the “Mother of Sea Monsters”!
As the earliest god of the Black Sea in human history, Hipponoi is obviously not a corpse meal, and just after returning, he has already conquered a large number of powerful and extraordinary creatures living in the unknown areas of the ocean.
And for what purpose did he call these creatures together?
The answer is obvious.
