Chapter 976 – ck Shark
The core of the Antis Civilization was the maic ohlite and the carving techniques; the two of them formed a unique system. The core of Lemurian Civilization was known as the magic crystal.
After touring the technology hall, Polisca said, “Fated person, as thanks from our race, you can take away one technology for free.”
“Directly choose?” Ouyang Shuo’s face was covered with doubt.
“Yes.”
“No extra terms?”
“No.”
Wow, that was really direct.
Although there were close to 100 technologies listed here, the one that tempted Ouyang Shuo the most was still the magic submarine making technology.
That was because to a navy, having a submarine and not having one were two entirely different concepts.
Submarines were reallymon in the military, and their main jobs included attacking enemy ships, protecting the shore, breaking through locks, scouting, camouge, and the like.
Although the frogmen of Great Xia were amazing, they travelled too slowly under water and were not good at long distance sneak attacks.
The frogmen together with the submarines could form an additive effect.
Ouyang Shuo asked Polisca about the specifics and the stats of the submarines.
Submarine name: Magic powered submarine.
Submarine size: 95 meters long, 11 meters wide, beam 5 meters.
Discement:?three thousand tonnes on the surface, 4500 tones underwater.
Depth: 100 meters
Submarine capacity: 100
Powered: Magic powered.
Loudest sound: 90 decibel
Main weapon: underwater magic crystal cannon.
Note: Magic powered submarine is something unique to the Lemuria Civilization. Using magic crystals as the power source, it silently travels the depths of the ocean.
Ouyang Shuo made his choice, and Polisca immediately handed him a thick book. Ouyang Shuo received it and carefully kept it into his storage bag.
“Leader, can the magic crystal be recharged?” Ouyang Shuo asked.
Polisca smiled, “The magic crystal is a consumable and cannot be recharged like that of the maic ohlite of Antis. Moreover, this magic crystal is only produced here in Lemuria.”
“....”
ck lines covered Ouyang Shuo’s head.
“So, are you going to give me a batch of magic crystals?” Ouyang Shuo acted like he was really rxed.
Polisca smiled once more; this smile caused Ouyang Shuo to get goosebumps. He was too familiar with that smile; it was the smile of despicable merchants.
Polisca said, “It’s really difficult to harvest the magic crystal. Even as the race leader, I have no power to give it to anyone. You can use gold to purchase it.”
Ouyang Shuo gave a bitter smile; so that was what he was waiting for.
Based on Polisca’s introduction, maintaining a magic submarine for a year needed 100 units of crystals, and each one was sold for two thousand gold.
Hence, running a magic submarine for a year would cost 200 thousand gold.
Ouyang Shuo was helpless. He spent two million gold to buy one thousand units of the magic crystals, which were enough for 10 submarines to use for a year.
It seemed like it was impossible to provide the navy withrge amounts of submarines.
Ouyang Shuo asked, “if I finish it, can Ie back to purchase more?”
“Naturally you can.” The quickpletion of such a huge deal made Polisca really delighted. He handed Ouyang Shuo a blue stone, “With this, you will be able to find us.”
Ouyang Shuo understood. Without this, one would be unable to see the mountain.
While touring Lemuria, Ouyang Shuo asked Polisca if he had any thoughts of resurfacing to the world.
Polisca was really frank and told him that they were already used to living underwater. They were unwilling to interfere with the outside world.
When Ouyang Shuo heard that, he knew that he could not force them.
Each civilization had their unique way of surviving; it was either in the light or in the dark.
For this, Ouyang Shuo and Polisca signed a long-term contract. From the 5th year onward, Great Xia would purchase no less than one thousand units of magic crystals a year.
After signing the contract, the originally frowny face of Polisca squeezed into a ball, “Since the Xia King is so generous, I cannot be stingy either. I will give Great Xia a magic powered submarine for free.”
With the deal signed, even the way Polisca called Ouyang Shuo became different.
“Thank you!”
Ouyang Shuo was delighted.
With the experience of developing the mimicry flying device, even with the current standards of Great Xia, building a magic powered submarine would take at least half a year.
To have one in advance was naturally great.
This submarine could be used to train troops as they researched how to build the submarines. They could use it to train a batch of skilled people.
Once the deal waspleted, Ouyang Shuo did not stay any longer.
...
He took the magic powered elevator back to the hall at the start. The Divine Martial Guards were still guarding there loyally.
Before leaving, Polisca asked, “Xia King, do you want to experience the magic powered submarine?”
“Of course!”
Ouyang Shuo happily agreed, and he chose 50 Personal Guards to follow him.
The magic powered submarine could at most carry a hundred people. Moreover, due to the mechanisms being reallyplicated, Polisca arranged 20 Lemurian teachers to be in charge of maneuvering the ck Shark that they gave to Great Xia.
These 20 Lemurian teachers would not stay in Great Xia forever. Once Great Xia sent the second batch of people to buy magic crystals, they would follow along and return to Lemuria.
This showed their determination to stay in the shadows.
Polisca pressed a button on the west wall of the hall, revealing a tunnel. At the end of the tunnel, there was a parked magic powered submarine. The 20 Lemurians were waiting there.
Ouyang Shuo boarded the submarine and said goodbye to Polisca.
Different from modern day submarines, this submarine was split into three parts, the bow, the mid ship, and the stern.
The bow was themand center of the submarine, while the mid ship was where the kitchen and living quarters were located. The stern was where the diving equipment and various systems were located.
The only underwater magic crystal cannon was located at the bottom of the submarine.
With curiosity, Ouyang Shuo entered themand center of the ck Shark.
The entiremand center was no more than a hundred square meters in size. The middle was where the captain sat. At the front of themand center, there were somemandputers where 10 Lemurians sat. Above theputers was a huge arc window that one could use to see the view outside.
The mysterious underwater world was clearly disyed in front of Ouyang Shuo.
