Old days in the box

Chapter 98 The debt collector is here
Although this subtle idea is somewhat suspected of bugs.

But Zhou Xiao felt that she could still look forward to it a little.

At this time, he turned off the video playback and overlooked the Western Continent while eating breakfast.

North Sea technology, which is a combination of local steam technology and Hex crystal, has spread across all towns as a technological style.

Zhou Xiao looked around and saw that the rebuilt town was filled with various steam pipes and spiral gears.

Hex batteries of different sizes are collected in energy supply plants, and energy is transported to various parts of the town through lines and pipelines, lighting up energy lamps in the streets and alleys.

Only one energy supply plant like this can meet the daily energy needs of two to three coastal towns.

Zhou Xiao zoomed in and roughly counted. The Beihai Kingdom has completed the basic reconstruction of five coastal towns and two large bays on the western continent. At least there is no problem in housing people.

The reconstruction of other areas was also carried out in an orderly manner, until it eventually spread to the entire Western Continent.

The achievements in this half month are less than one-tenth of the entire territory, and are far from the heyday of the North Sea Kingdom.

They also developed a large transport vehicle similar to an airship, but it was not used for flying, but for transporting supplies between the two Hex portals. They were shaped like ships and could carry a large amount of items and land on the ground.

It seems that Zhou Xiao only needs to sleep for a few more nights, and the comprehensive reconstruction of the Beihai Kingdom should be fully implemented.

Zhou Xiao dragged the angle of view to confirm where the people he was familiar with were located.

Freya was the best choice to find. Due to the highlight, Zhou Xiao could immediately see that she was in the center of the kingdom in the Eastern Continent, leading the deep-diving elves to attend classes in the public school.

"Huh?" Zhou Xiao saw a large group of deep-diving elves sitting at attention in the school, and almost spit out all the rice rolls.

What kind of weird scene is this?
Instead of guarding the border, a two- or three-meter-tall elf warrior comes here to take classes seriously?

It turns out that since the last time Zhou Xiao sent down a divine guide and said sincerely to Freya that he hoped they could learn to spread their faith peacefully, the chosen girl really listened to her heart!
She immediately organized the most talented metamorphoses among the Deep Diving Elves, especially the 35 members of the Old Council.

They all dragged them to participate in the Beihai Kingdom's academy education, starting with the most basic literacy and reading, and vowed to learn how to spread their faith peacefully and not to cause war at every turn.

Although that's what I mean... But you don't have to actually go to class!Zhou Xiao smiled bitterly in his heart.

However, this chosen girl's learning talent was obviously very average. She started yawning and losing energy even after not long listening, as if she was an elf princess who was forced to study in class.

Zhou Xiao smiled knowingly, decided not to disturb her, and turned to look at Sharon.

Sharon is really busy here. Since the establishment of the Royal Academy of Sciences and the Royal Shipyard, she has automatically become the main leader of them, and she also has to take care of the reconstruction project of the Western Continent.

In addition to dealing with various affairs during the day, he also has to take magic courses with the Archmage Drake at night.

Since Drake settled in the North Sea Kingdom and became a devout believer in the Children of the Old One, he has also reopened his own magic teaching and research courses in the North Sea Kingdom.

However, Sharon's brain is very good, and she can still cope with such a busy work with ease.

At this time, she is located in Knife Bay, dealing with reconstruction related work.

Just as Zhou Xiao turned his eyes towards her.

Two large, ornately decorated merchant ships floated slowly from the south of the sea, and soon they entered the visible field of view of the Western Continent.

"Merchant ship? And it came out of the shadows?" Zhou Xiao saw these two conspicuous strange ships at a glance from a bird's eye view.

Since the view of the Western Continent has been fully opened, the visible range of the window basically covers the entire North Sea, but no trace of any other continent has been seen.

It can be seen that the North Sea is still quite far away from the civilized zone of Atrium - the continent of Europa mentioned by Drake.

But now two large merchant ships suddenly appeared from the fog of war, and headed straight towards the western continent of the North Sea. They were obviously a group of visitors from the civilized zone.

"Great, I was just about to expand my horizons, and someone came to guide me."

Zhou Xiao became interested and immediately zoomed in to focus on these two magnificent merchant ships.

In fact, after unifying Beihai, Zhou Xiao's next plan is to extend to the civilized zone of the Atrium World and get in touch with the outside world.

Now that there are visitors from those unknown continents, he can also take the opportunity to learn about the information about the outside world.

At this time, as the angle of view was enlarged, Zhou Xiao was also able to see more details of the two merchant ships.

These two merchant ships are not sailboats, but steamships driven by steam power. The hulls are large in size, and the bows are also engraved with golden angels, which look very majestic.

Moreover, the same red lion family emblem flag was hung high on both ships.

This is obviously not an ordinary merchant ship, but a private ship from a certain family.

Zhou Xiao saw two gentlemen-looking people standing on the leading ship, wearing long coats and hats, holding pocket watches, looking at the Western Continent in the distance.

He clicked on one of them, and a detailed biography of the character popped up.

"Duke Robert, 35 years old, investment adviser to the Robert family."

"A member of the Robert family, who is also the actual controller of the Robert Ocean Trading Company, developed the trading business in the Frankish Kingdom for the family. In the earlier trade from the Europa continent to the North Sea, the family sent cargo ships to the Kingdom of Norway - Knife Gulf. They were all sunk during the war, and are now heading to the North Sea to seek an explanation.”

"Click to see more information."

This gentleman named Duke turned out to be here to investigate!

In the earlier war of conquest of the North Sea Kingdom, when the Mist Gate first appeared and invaded the Blade Bay, it did sink all the ships anchored in the Blade Bay at that time, regardless of type.

Unexpectedly, there would be a follow-up to this matter. Among the ships sunk by the deep-diving elves were trading ships from distant continents!
"The Frankish Kingdom on the Europa Continent...shouldn't there be a Holy Roman Empire?" Zhou Xiao couldn't help complaining.

At this time, Duke put his pocket watch back into his pocket and adjusted his collar to make himself look more imposing.

"Mr. Duke, we are about to arrive at Knife Bay. Do we need to prepare?" the accountant behind him asked diligently.

"There's nothing worth preparing for. These Beihai barbarians don't understand etiquette and can't calculate. It's very difficult to talk to them every time."

Duke snorted coldly, his expression looking particularly unhappy.

"But I heard that the situation in the North Sea has just changed. The Kingdom of Norway that we previously traded with has changed hands."

The accountant behind him, obviously well-informed, continued.
