Chapter 357 The Steel Monster Parked at the Port
Several large ocean-going wooden sailing ships were sailing on the sea, and the watchman on the mast could see the coastline and the gray and white cement-like outline of the new port on the coastline.

"South Bank Town is almost here!" The lookout shouted.

When the sailors below heard the news, their distressed faces caused by the voyage finally smiled.

"After running for three days, I finally arrived at Nan'an Town."

"Yeah, if it wasn't for the sudden countercurrent vortex that hindered us, we should have arrived at South Shore Town yesterday."

The sailors complained about what happened last night and almost died in that large ocean eddy.

The large vortex appeared suddenly without warning. When they found that the hull was irreversibly driven by the ocean current, the crew were all shocked.

They did not go deep into the sea of ​​death, but drove close to the coastline. It was a safe waterway and a safe lifeline that the Lionheart Kingdom had explored for hundreds of years. There were no sea monsters, but just last night, they encountered A large ocean vortex.

Fortunately, their boat was a big boat with sails and manpower. All the sailors rowed desperately, and finally sailed out of the edge of the whirlpool area.

Since it was night and the sky was relatively gloomy, with no stars or moon, they couldn't judge how big the big vortex was, but they just intuited that the scope of its vortex was quite astonishingly large.

"Wow, what did I see, a steel monster!"

It was also at this time that the watchman exclaimed from the watchtower, interrupting the crew's discussion about the vortex incident last night.

"Daniel, what did you see, are you sure you're not talking nonsense?"

"I'm sure, really, I'm pretty sure I saw a steel monster!" Daniel said in horror.

After hearing this, the orcs below all ran to the side of the boat to look at the farthest place, trying to see the steel monster.

After a while, the crew really saw a huge ironclad ship slowly driving on the sea, and its direction was heading towards the newly built reinforced concrete port area in Nan'an Town.

"What is that? It seems to be made of iron." The orcs wiped their eyes, thinking they were dazzled.

"Maybe the nightmare last night is not over yet, why don't we go back to the boat and sleep."

The orc crew watched the ironclad sailing ahead in horror, and they all saw a string of ultra-long and ultra-wide white waves pulled out by the tail of the ironclad.

These white waves are long and wide, reminding watchers of shooting stars in the sky. When they flash across the sky, they also drag their long tails.

According to the high priest of the old king city of the Lionheart Kingdom, the meteor is a signal that the new god is coming and the old god is sleeping.

After the meteor flashed past, Lionheart City needed to hold a solemn sacrifice to prove that his people worshiped the new god, but they would not forget the contribution made by the old god, because the old god still had the possibility of revival.

But at this moment, the watchman Daniel had that reverence for the gods in his heart.

"Could that monster be the creation of the God of the Sea?" Daniel couldn't help thinking.

Last night, they encountered a large vortex. If the crew members were not strong, they might all be sucked into the center of the vortex at this moment.

Now seeing a steel monster, he subconsciously thought that the sea god was angry and sent a steel monster to punish humans.

Because of the appearance of the ironclad ship, the captain from Meitai Port decided to slow down and follow slowly. If the situation was not good, the food they carried on this ship would not be delivered, and they would return the same way.

The ship followed for a while, and cargo ships coming from other routes also entered the coastal area of ​​Nan'an Town. The captain changed course and approached those cargo ships, preparing to ask them.

The other cargo ship sailors also saw the giant steel ship. At this time, the steel ship had sailed into the new port of Nan'an Town. They didn't know what was going on, so they didn't dare to enter the port.

Several cargo ships gathered together, connected them with ropes, and connected the ships with decks. Several captains gathered together to discuss the matter of the ironclad ship.

"Captain Cook, it's great that you are here too. May I ask if you know about the big iron ship? My sailors and I are very scared and don't know whether we should enter the port to unload the cargo." from Meitai Port The captain touched the Mediterranean bald head.

Meitai Port is a large port town to the west of Nan'an Town. Because it is located at the mouth of the sea, there are developed urban resources such as Lion Heart City in the upper reaches of the canal. Its commerce is also very developed, and it is easy to purchase grain from the western region.

A large amount of grain from the western region departed from Meitai Port and was transported to the South Bank, then sent by the orcs in Nan'an Town to Saltpeter Town, and transported back to Tomorrow City by train.

"We at Shuizhu Harbor have heard that His Majesty Allen's iron-clad ship is going to launch the Wu Island expedition plan in the near future. Maybe that ship is His Majesty Allen's ship." Captain Cook stroked his lion's beard, a little uncertain, but This is the only information he knows.

Speaking of His Majesty Allen's plan to explore the fog island, the captains remembered a report written by Tomorrow's newspaper, which stated that the shipyard of Tomorrow City was building the world's first steel steamship to explore the Sea of ​​Death The Kirishima coordinates of .

The captains looked at each other and thought it made sense.

Ten minutes later, the first wooden sail sailed into the port on the South Bank.

The closer the cargo ship in Meitai Port was to the port, the closer it was to the ironclad ship. When the distance between the two ships was less than 500 meters, the crew could clearly see a line of white paint on the hull of the black ironclad ship. The word written in Chinese - Pioneer!

The captain of the Pioneer is about 100 meters long, and their cargo ship is not that long, only 50 meters long, which is half the size of the Pioneer.

The orcs in Meitai Port felt deeply uncomfortable seeing the giant-sized ship with an all-steel body.

"It's such a big iron ship." Daniel the lookout had gone down to the deck at this time, looked up at the ship, and didn't understand how the other party built it.

"How do you make such a ship?"

"Look at the hull, it's all made of steel!" The helmsman also stared straight at the hull of the ironclad ship. They are all experienced sailors and probably know the manufacturing process of a ship.

Because they knew how difficult it is to build a ship, they were more shocked than ordinary sailors. It was hard to imagine what kind of shipbuilding technology Tomorrow City used to make a huge hull of steel.

"I have a friend who works in the Royal Blacksmith Shop. He has read newspapers stating that Sun City is building steel steamships. He said that steel ships cannot be made because those steel plates are difficult to sew together, and the weight may will sink to the bottom."

"But what we have seen now, the steel ship is really built, it won't enter the water, and it's a giant!"

The orc looked at the ship over and over again, and he didn't even want to get off the ship, he just wanted to record every aspect of the iron-clad ship in his mind.
