Chapter 348: Things that really need to be commemorated
Su Wen followed the map given by Nelson and walked along the foggy coastline.
It's daytime on the Lost Sea.
The lighthouse on the high island has not yet lit up.
Public transport is available from Rendel's clock shop to the ranger's station.
This is a bit easier.
He leaned against the glass window of the railway locomotive and looked into the distance.
Far away from the military seaport is a wider civilian seaport and maritime trade warehouse.
The huge pier is filled with steamship hulls of various unique shapes, full of a fusion of future technology and classical shapes.
They are skillfully suspended in the air like works of art, contrasting with the pale white sky and the magnificent ocean. The hazy light of the Lost Sea falls through the clouds and shines on the surface of the golden hull, shining with an enchanting light.
Fascinating light.
The architecture of the harbor is full of European classical flavor.
A towering bell tower and a magnificent church spire stand at the end of the street, with intricate patterns and stone carvings carved on the walls.
Every detail reveals the sophistication and magnificence of European style. The ancient stone brick buildings are accompanied by the pipes and gears of steam technology, forming a unique visual impact.
The water of the canal running through the harbor is crystal clear, and there are busy distribution points on the shore. Workers in classic work clothes are busy carrying goods.
In the environment of the steampunk seaport, nature and industry complete a perfect combination. European-style buildings and landscapes are integrated with steampunk technological elements.
Su Wen got off the rail train at the viewing point, admired it for a moment, and then walked leisurely towards the destination.
The Forester organization is not stationed here, but needs to go deep from an abandoned factory.
Because the location is too remote.
So Nelson chose to wait for him at a newsstand near an abandoned factory.
As a first-level (second-level after actual lighthouse enhancement) low-level transcendent, Su Wen did not attract much attention at all, and besides, he was still conducting line-of-sight tracking inspections using hidden drones at all times.
I arrived at the newsstand without anyone noticing.
I was flipping through the steam newspaper and said to Nielsen:
""The third-level transcendent Scarander disappeared in the archipelago area that has not been fully opened".
It seems so.
News about the extraordinary is not lost on the Lost Sea."
Nielsen still maintained corresponding qualities in the newsstand. He did not light a cigarette, but he couldn't help but smile after hearing Su Wen say this:
"In the border of the secret sea, perhaps the worship of extraordinary beings is even higher than in the real world.
Human beings rely on the spiritual energy brought by their origins to develop with difficulty, so they inevitably use it as their sustenance."
He wanted to prove this.
After saying hello to the boss, I took out a hardcover biography from the bookshelf:
"look.
This is a poster for Rhine.
The one on the cover was from when he was the No. 25 driver. It was a big hit in Detroit and even reached the Lost Sea.
no way.
A character like this who is handsome, mysterious, and has a messianic style of acting is really charming.
It is said that the products will be sold out as soon as they are released.”
I saw this example that Nelson suddenly gave.
For a moment, Su Wen didn't know what expression he should use to respond. He finally chose to nod expressionlessly:
"I have to say, Rhine is indeed handsome.
Let me ask one more question.
What type of buyers are they?”
"It is said that they are the eldest ladies of major business firms and many mature female pioneers.
If I could capture a scene of Rhineland saving the world, even if it was just the back of a man in black on the night when Detroit was burning, I would probably become popular."
"Reasonable goals.
I wish you success."
In fact, Su Wen didn't pay too much attention.
After all, he knows the extent of Rhine's influence in the modern world.
Maybe you don’t need to search on YouTube or Twitter, you just need to look at the existence of your [World Influence] column.
Let the Rhine be engraved as a symbol on the milestone of the century of origin.
Although Su Wen often joked with the iceberg girl or made some bragging jokes in a playful manner.
But rationally, he also understood very calmly:
All people need is
【Rhine】
Instead of:
【Su Wen】
As Gustave Le Pen wrote in "The Crowd":
(Sometimes the untrue contains more truth than the true.)
This level is enough now.
But this book also made him somewhat interested:
“Boss, how much does this book cost?
I bought it."
Hear him say that.
The boss shook his hand:
"This is not for sale. Someone has already made a reservation with me."
I have to say, for others.
It's really easy to get lost in this feeling of being admired.
But Su Wen just smiled and turned around to leave:
"Then forget it."
He and Nelson walked together through the moss-covered abandoned factory and along the underground tunnels for about half an hour.
Finally, we arrived at an abandoned industrial area far away from the bustling port.
Go through the faded wrought iron gate.
However, there is still some life left in the distance of this silent ruins.
Some tenacious plants emerged from the cracks, stretching their leaves and outlining a glimmer of hope with faint green. They grew tenaciously, and in the distance there were some children wearing linen clothes suitable for working, pushing steam machinery to turn the fields.
"These people are orphans rescued by the Forest Guard organization here.
Nelson explained,
"The food and seeds I stored on the Wiltings were all for them to survive."
And further away is the environment where they live.
The buildings in the residential area are dilapidated, but they still retain some European-style lines and decorations.
The stone carvings and sculptures on the walls are badly damaged, but they exude an ancient and majestic atmosphere.
The glass on the window is broken and messy, but the iron window grilles are still intriguing.
In the alleys of residential areas, weeds have dug into the cracks and missing stone bricks have been patched together.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Vines cling to the walls, hiding the etchings of the years. These alleys hide the tenacity and persistence of the residents, who use their remaining strength to survive with the traces of past buildings
.
Su Wen could see that the flowers that once bloomed here had withered, and the branches of the plants were messy and intertwined among the boulders and metal, like an ancient ultra-modern painting.
But he also saw the sunlight shining through the gaps, like the dust of time falling on this abandoned land.
The blooming buds are embellished with an Ort-like shimmer.
In the distance is a huge abandoned shipyard.
Su Wen stood at a place with a better view and looked there, and found that there was not even a complete ship:
"Is there really a boat here that can sell me a cruise through the depths of the Lost Sea?"
"It should have been there."
Nelson was also speechless.
He has been in the world, and if it weren't for the zero-sum game that took place on White Christmas Day in New York State, things like the Dragon's Skeleton would have been created.
He really doesn't necessarily come here to make big news.
As for these information, they are all old information kept by the forest rangers.
"I don't know what happened recently, so I'll ask first."
The system prompt appears as expected:
[Obtain the phased D-level side mission: Omen of Set sail]
[Task description: Find the reason for the dilapidation of the shipyard]
[Estimated mission reward: Bow Poseidon Statue]
See the task prompt.
Su Wen knew that he was at least on a feasible timeline.
As a future observer, he can indeed keep trying and making mistakes to find the correct future.
But at the same time, he also has his own limitations, which is the time in the present world.
Once the present time reaches the future.
The timeline he observed will become reality.
In other words, the emergence of tasks helped him save the huge cost of endless trial and error.
But Su Wen was not in a hurry:
"Can you show me around here first?"
"Why?"
Nelson was a little puzzled.
But Su Wen looked at the newly cultivated land that was constantly being sown based on the ruins not far away. He looked at the smiles on the faces of the children whose bodies were covered with dust, and then he looked from a distance with great calmness and said:
"It's really different from the Jupiter Islands.
In Jupiter I experienced only escape from disaster.
Nelson.
If in Starfall Port I saw another possibility of civilization.
Now, I probably have truly seen the true meaning of pioneering.
Compared to photographing the so-called ‘Rhine’.
In the lost sea.
in ruins.
A will forged in sorrow and tenacity.
Hope is born among these castaways who have been tricked by fate.
Is this the civilization that really needs to be recorded?”
