Chapter 644
“Beep, beep, beep!”
Amidst the loud sound of the trumpet, the guards of the lord’s palace who served as the guard of honor stood in two rows on both sides of the gate.
Amidst the cheers of the crowd in Lake Center Town, Glenn, the commander of the Western Exploration Team, walked step by step to the door of the Lord's Mansion.
Paul led a group of staff from the Government Affairs Council to greet Grant and several of his deputies at the door.
When Grant approached, Paul stepped forward and hugged the explorer tightly.
"Please forgive me for telling the truth. Before I learned about your return, I always thought you would never come back!"
"It is understandable, Mr. Grayman, if It’s hard for me not to have such thoughts.”
Paul took Grant’s hand and entered the Lord’s Mansion until he came to the hall.
A sumptuous banquet has been set up here, specially set up to welcome the adventure heroes of the Western Exploration Team.
After everyone sat down, Paul raised his glass and shouted loudly: "I propose that we drink to the great achievements of Mr. Gulen and his companions."
"Cheers!"
< br>“Cheers!”
Everyone raised their glasses, responded to Paul’s suggestion, and drank all the wine in their hands.
“Everyone!” Paul’s face glowed, showing his high interest.
"I can assert that the discovery of the Western exploration team - which directly proves that the earth under our feet is round - will be one of the most important discoveries in human history, which will reshape our world to a great extent. It will profoundly affect our future historical process.”
“Until now, I still find it incredible,” Hansel agreed, “The earth under my feet is round, it’s hard to imagine what it is. Such a situation."
Paul looked at Grant, "Then, please ask Mr. Grant to tell us about their strange adventure."
Of course the experience of the Western Expedition Team will be discussed. Write a detailed report for him to see, but he can't wait for the day when the formal report is formed.
"Lord Graiman." Grant asked first: "The other two exploration teams... how are they doing?"
On the way to Lake Town, Grant already knew the news that the Northern Exploration Team and the Eastern Exploration Team had returned, but he didn't find out the latest news about them. Have they been disbanded? Or was he given another important task?
“Oh, by the way, I should tell you their latest situation first! Haha.”
“Stanford, as well as the members of the Northern Exploration Team, they have now returned Heading to the north of the Rocky Mountains, several trading posts have been opened there, and they are trading with the local indigenous people. You don't know, the furs, medicinal materials, and minerals produced there are of excellent quality, and we will be there. Promote advanced agricultural technology there, build new farms, and attract indigenous people to work on our farms."
"As for Nigel and his eastern exploration team, they discovered the southeastern part of the continent. A new land, and the natives living on it turned out to be the legendary elves. I have sent Nigel and his men there again, and tried to establish friendship with the elves. There is a mineral there that attracts me very much. "
"Elf?" Grant's eyebrows jumped.
"Yes, elf!" Paul raised his hand exaggeratedly, "I said, since you came back from the other direction, didn't you encounter him on the way?"
"Lord Grayman, please allow me to start from the beginning. Tell us about our experiences..."
Glen began to narrate his adventure. "At the beginning, we pushed all the way into the depths of the sea. The ocean was so vast that we thought that except for the continent where our hometown was, the rest of the world was sea water. But just when we were discouraged and ready to return, , but encountered a small archipelago, the islands are covered with forests, various plants, and animals."
"We have obtained supplies from these islands, the Lord of Light may. It has blessed us wanderers. We discovered a magical tree on the island. The fruit of the tree is large and round, and when the fruit is roasted, it looks like bread. Let’s call it the bread tree. We also obtained some meat through hunting.”
"The discovery of the island gave us new confidence. If we continue sailing, we may encounter larger land? So we continued sailing. Fortunately, we discovered an ocean current. With the help of the power of the ocean current, we sailed The ground is getting faster! Then we discovered a series of islands one after another, and the supplies obtained from these islands supported us to continue sailing."
"Finally, after four months of wandering, we finally arrived. I encountered a continent, not a large island, but a real continent!"
At this time, Grant's eyes widened and he looked around at everyone present.
"My lords, do you know what is on that continent?"
As expected, he received curious looks from everyone.
"Orcs!"
"Orcs?" Paul asked in surprise: "There are also orcs on the opposite continent?"
"No, not the kind of orcs we have here!" Grant explained. Said: "We call the races on the other side of the Rocky Mountains orcs because they are savage and unreasonable, and they are hairy and look like beasts. But strictly speaking, there is no one that can match them in reality. Beast."
"However, on another continent, we found an indigenous race with cow-like heads on humanoid bodies."
"Oh—— !" A cry of exclamation sounded at the banquet, and everyone's eyes were full of shock.
"Tauren?" Paul said this title without thinking.
Glen nodded, "You can say that, Lord Graiman. From the mouths of these natives, I learned that they are not the only ones on that continent with heads like cows, but there are also people with other animal characteristics. Other races. The social form of these races is still quite primitive, and they live scattered on the continent in the form of tribes."
"Then we also learned that there is another one in the south of this continent. There is only one race on the mainland - the Goat people!"
"The Goat people have a more developed civilization and have established several real countries..."
Paul interjected and asked: "Is it Chang? Wearing a sheep’s head?”
"No!" Grant shook his head, "They look just like us humans, except that they have goat or sheep-like horns on their heads, and their limbs are also hands and feet, not hooves. Because they have more advanced Civilization, the indigenous people on the northern continent call them the superior race in awe."
Paul smiled, "Interesting"
He suddenly thought of creatures like succubi.
But Grant's face suddenly turned ugly, "Lord Graiman, unfortunately, when we visited the Goatmen's port, they...detained some people!"
< br> The next few months will be busy and there will be fewer updates.
