Chapter 841 Underground Exploration (Fifteenth)

On the afternoon of April 1st, the study room of the Duhu Mansion.

Ouyang Shuo summoned Chen Bingguang, director of industry, and asked, "Old Chen, how long will it take for the Z1 warship developed by the Shipping Department to be launched?"

Although Mr. Chen was a little surprised, he still replied in detail: "The main body of the Yuhuang has been built, and it will be launched in the dock in a week. After launching, it will carry out sea trials. It will take about a month."

Yuhuang is the first Z1 warship built with the black dragon keel, and it is also Ouyang Shuo's new flagship. In the second half of Gaia's four years, Ouyang Shuo plans to take another ocean voyage on Yuhuang.

"A month?" Ouyang Shuo frowned and asked, "Can you speed up the progress a little?"

"Is your lord in a hurry to use it?" Old Chen was puzzled.

Ouyang Shuo shook his head and gave a general introduction to the task of establishing a nation.

Mr. Chen suddenly realized, with obvious excitement on his face, and said: "This is a good thing. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely urge the Shipping Department to speed up the progress, and try to complete all the tests of the Yuhuang within half a month."

Ouyang Shuo nodded with a smile, "That's hard work for Mr. Chen."

"No hard work, no hard work!"

When Mr. Chen walked, his footsteps were a little fluttering. For these scientists, it was also very interesting to witness the silent rise of a huge empire in the game and participate in it personally.

Sending off Mr. Chen, Ouyang Shuo's expression was not relaxed. In the afternoon, the three nation-building tasks have been started one by one, and Ouyang Shuo has also been assigned.

Among the three tasks of founding a country, the first task [Siyi surrender] to subdue the foreign race is full of uncertainty, the time is uncertain, the location is uncertain, and even the target is not 100% sure.

Ouyang Shuo has already entrusted Cao Shen, governor of Dongchuan County, to cooperate with Honglu Temple to secretly go to Shu, contact the Qiang tribes in Qiang County, and see if he can guide several large Qiang tribes to settle in Shanhai City. With Gaia's temperament, if the number of Qiang people introduced into Shanhai City is too small, they will definitely not be recognized.

Task 2 [Vientiane Update] is the most brain-intensive.

At present, the research and development of the Z1 warship is the most controlled. Fortunately, academic breakthroughs are also in sight.

Ouyang Shuo thought of the "Ten Mysteries of Heaven" that Song Jia had sent earlier. He had handed "Ten Mysteries of Heaven" to the Southwest University, and asked all mathematics students to work together to solve the tenth calculation of heaven's secrets.

There are top scientists from the Federation sitting in the Southwest University hall, and they will definitely be able to find another way and come up with other methods to solve problems within the field of ancient mathematics.

If it can be achieved, it must be regarded as an academic breakthrough.

This is also a mistake.

As for the last new technology, it is still in the dark. Ouyang Shuo approached Liu Mo to see if Research Institute No. 7 could combine western alchemy to come up with a new technology.

It all takes time.

Task 3 [Congratulations from all directions] should take the shortest time and be the least urgent.

Ouyang Shuo has ordered Honglu Temple to start making invitations, and when the first and second missions are in place, and the date of the founding of the country is set, the invitations will be sent out one by one.

The Department of Culture is already preparing for the enthronement ceremony on the day of the founding of the country, busy but not chaotic.

Before that, Honglu Temple needs to be active everywhere.

Now that the news that Shanhai City is going to establish a nation has spread all over the wilderness, I am afraid that some people want to see Shanhai City's jokes. Ouyang Shuo couldn't afford to be frustrated at this moment, the sweeping momentum had to be maintained.

The enthronement ceremony is the moment when Shanhai City shows its influence.

…………

For the next few days, there was no progress in the task of founding the nation, which made Ouyang Shuo quite annoyed.

On April 5th, the leader of [Blood Shadow League] Mingyue Zhao Dajiang found Ouyang Shuo.

A few days ago, the headquarters of [Blood Shadow Alliance] has been successfully moved to the satellite city, and it has officially settled down. A formal authorization agreement has also been signed between Shanhai City and [Blood Shadow Alliance].

Like Wangcheng Satellite City, all the real estate and shops in Shanhai City Satellite City are handed over to [Blood Shadow League] for operation. The difference is that Shanhai City takes 60% of the profit, which is 10% higher than Wangcheng.

Based on the current scale of players in the satellite city, the General Administration of Finance roughly calculated that 60% of the profit plus commercial tax, the satellite city can bring Shanhai City nearly 300,000 gold coins in financial revenue every month.

It's not Ouyang Shuo's black heart. If he wants, he can arrange the officials of the territory to handle this matter, and the profit will be even bigger. It's just that Ouyang Shuo adhered to the principle of win-win and did not intervene in the affairs of the satellite city.

Sometimes the hand really can't be stretched too long.

Besides, when it comes to managing adventure players, Shanhai City is not good at it, and [Blood Shadow League] is an expert.

Mingyue found Ouyang Shuo according to the river, and the main reason was to apply to Shanhai City for an army to be stationed in the satellite city to assist [Blood Shadow League] in managing the city.

For each satellite city of the royal city, Gaia will spawn 10,000 NPC troops to guard it. Territorial satellite cities do not have such treatment, it can only be arranged by the lord himself.

Ouyang Shuo just smiled when he heard Mingyue Zhaoda Jiang's request, and said, "Don't worry. The 5th Legion of the Leopard Army will be stationed in the outskirts of Tianjing City in a short time, and then we will arrange a division to station in the satellite city."

"That couldn't be better!" Mingyue Zhao Dajiang was overjoyed. Mingyuezhao Dajiang is convinced of the quality of Shanhai City's army, probably stronger than the NPC army spawned by Gaia.

After talking about the business, the two chatted and talked about the open underground world.

Ouyang Shuo asked curiously, "How is it? What's the situation in the underground world?"

With the opening of the nine satellite cities at the same time, relevant information about the underground world burst out on the forum from time to time. Gaia even complied with public opinion and opened a special column on the underground world on the forum.

Indeed, as Gaia advertised, the monsters in the underground world completely crushed the wilderness monsters in terms of quantity, type, and even level.

It's just that the current underground world is still a restricted area for ordinary players. You have to wait for the giant union to open up the wasteland before the large troops can flood in, otherwise the group will be wiped out in minutes.

Even the elite group that opened up wasteland suffered heavy losses. In the words of the guild bosses, every line of the map they drew was filled in by the elite group with flesh and blood, which is very tragic.

Of course, the land reclamation of giant trade unions is not to make Lei Feng alive. As pioneers, whether it was killing bosses or collecting rare materials, they were the first to arrive and made a lot of money.

It is the first time to encounter any adventures, so they do not suffer.

Ouyang Shuo asked Mingyue Zhao about the situation in Dajiang's underground world, because the underground world is huge and the monsters in different royal cities are different.

Mingyue Zhao Dajiang smiled and said: "It's really cruel. If you have a chance, I suggest you go down and have a look." Talking about some interesting things about opening up wasteland for the elite group, he briefly talked about it.

Ouyang Shuo's heart moved. He was also very curious about the mysterious underground world, so he nodded and said, "Alright, let's just go and relax."

Since there is no progress in the task of establishing a nation, Ouyang Shuo doesn't have to stay in Shanhai City all the time. Maybe in the underground world, there will be some adventures.

Don't forget, Ouyang Shuo is a very lucky person now.

"Okay, why are you here, I'll make arrangements in advance." Mingyue Zhao Dajiang said with a smile.

Ouyang Shuo nodded and said, "The day after tomorrow!"

"no problem!"

The two chatted for a while and then dispersed.

*************

April 7th, Satellite City.

Ouyang Shuo suddenly appeared in the satellite city with 3,000 Shenwuwei, which immediately caused a commotion. There were countless players crowded everywhere, wanting to see this legendary giant.

Fortunately, [Blood Shadow Alliance] had already prepared, and arranged for five thousand players to isolate a passage. Satellite City is equivalent to a miniature version of Shanhai City, so Ouyang Shuo naturally has no interest in visiting it.

After entering the satellite city, the group went straight to the entrance of the underground world without stopping. Mingyuezhao Dajiang specially arranged an elite team as a guide, and the leader of the team was called Broken Love Pirates Commander.

"Your Majesty, my name is Lovelorn Pirate Commander!"

Lovelorn Pirate Shuai ran over with a smile, his face was familiar.

With [Blood Shadow League] taking over the satellite city, the millions of members spontaneously regarded themselves as members of Shanhai City, and when they saw Ouyang Shuo, they directly addressed themselves as "Your Majesty".

In fact, for the current players, being able to talk to Ouyang Shuo is already a great honor. The lovelorn bandit commander was chosen as a guide, and I don't know how many brothers died with envy.

Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly, "Excuse me, I'll call you Bandit Handsome!"

The Lovelorn Pirate Commander smiled along, but didn't know how to reply, so he turned around and ran ahead to lead the way. There is an unusual story behind this unique name.

The entrance steps are made of stone masonry, the light gets darker as you go down, the steps are also wet, covered with a layer of light moss, and the walls on both sides are covered with thick vines, and the vitality is very tenacious.

After walking for about ten minutes, there was a faint sense of coldness in the air, which made people shiver unknowingly. The surrounding light has become extremely dark, similar to dawn shrouded in hazy moonlight.

Ouyang Shuo immediately thought of the legend of the underworld, probably so. Going further down, the sound of howling wind faintly came from the depths of the ground, accompanied by the cold air, which was even more terrifying.

Seeing Shenwuwei, each of them looked solemn and ready to fight.

"Your Majesty, we'll be there soon!" the Bandit Commander in front said suddenly.

Just as he finished speaking, he saw clusters of hazy white lights suddenly appearing in the cold dim light, slightly illuminating the dark and terrifying space, at least he could look around normally.

Too.

If the underground world is really dark, then how can players explore, they can't always carry torches, that's unrealistic.

The group of people walked less than 20 meters down and came to an open space.

Looking around, I am afraid that no one would have imagined that this place is actually underground, and the open space under their feet is as big as ten football fields. Outside the open space, there are ravines and huge passages leading to the unknown world. The howling cold wind rushed out from those huge passages, and the sound of gurgling water could be heard vaguely.

The Bandit Commander ran over and said with a smile: "We have built a temporary base here, and we will build a fixed supply base in the future. The whole underground world is a big network connected by passages and open spaces. The open spaces are nodes and also The main monster area, the channel is the vein."
