Chapter 398 Hunting Sea Soul Beast (Part )
Giving Romantina an enhanced information processing ability, or strengthening her ability to conduct logical analysis, can further develop the potential of her brain martial spirit.
This is also the basic prerequisite for her brain martial spirit to transform into a "supercomputer"!
At worst, from the most practical personal combat power, as long as Romantina inherited this most fundamental ability of the Rubik's Cube Octopus, when using this soul skill, with the talent of the brain martial soul, Romantina can further control every inch of herself.
In the future, as long as I learn some techniques of shrinking bones, controlling muscle movements, and learning some makeup techniques, I may be able to control my appearance camouflage.
Moreover, once you have mastered the movement of the bones and muscles of the whole body and understood the laws of human movement and put them to use, you will be able to unleash powerful combat power and control.
Therefore, the Rubik's Cube Octopus is the best choice as Romantina's second soul ring.
More importantly, there are not many soul beasts with powerful spiritual attributes on the continent. It is impossible to really help Romantina find a mooing spring ox as a soul ring, right?
Seven days later, the group arrived at Hanhai City.
Because this time he didn't take a carriage, but ran all the way west to practice his leg strength.
In addition, the three of them were great soul masters who controlled the power of aura and were even stronger. Moreover, each of them could recover their soul power quickly, so not much time was wasted.
Hanhai City is the largest city in the western part of the Tiandou Empire. It is also the largest coastal city and port city on the Douluo Continent.
The huge city was built along the sea, or rather on the mountains by the sea. No matter how high the tide ebbs or falls, it cannot be shaken at all.
The wide and thick city wall is about forty meters long and sixty meters high. This is definitely a city at the main city level!
Cities located on the seaside are often accompanied by sea breezes. People living inland are more or less not used to such coastal cities, especially when they smell the faint salty smell in the air, which makes the three of them frown slightly.
“Do all coastal cities taste like this?”
Looking at the walls and roof tiles decorated with blue shells, Xiao Wu felt that the architectural style was unique. The only thing that was a bit unbearable was the smell.
"Used to it."
Tang San sneezed and blew his nose.
"Let's go, we'll meet Romantina at the local Spirit Hall. Judging from the time, she should be here by now." Zhou Qing suggested.
When the guards of Hanhai City caught a glimpse of Zhou Qing and the others, contempt appeared in their eyes unconsciously.
Although the clothes Zhou Qing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu wore were no longer coarse linen and were clean and tidy, they still looked like they were from the countryside compared to the residents in the main city.
The fee to enter the main city is also very expensive, and it actually requires one Silver Soul Coin!
Fortunately, after paying three Silver Soul Coins, these guards did not make things too difficult for Xiao Wu. They just made a verbal joke about Xiao Wu's appearance, which made Xiao Wu angry.
But Zhou Qing and Tang San covered his mouth together and pulled him into the city.
They came to help Romantina hunt soul beasts, not to conflict with the guards of the local main city—
The soldiers in this feudal era were all ruffians, and the fundamental principle of military discipline was only one: obey orders.
As for moral education, it is only provided by the corresponding Guardian Knights. In ordinary armies, most generals do not mention this matter.
"If I hadn't been stopped by you two, I would have definitely had a big fight with that guard!" Xiao Wu snorted coldly.
"Forget it, this is someone else's territory, we have to keep a low profile."
Zhou Qing advised. After entering Hanhai City, the three of them did not wander around. They asked a passerby about the location of the Spirit Hall, and then rushed there and found Romantina waiting outside the Spirit Hall.
It turned out that she had arrived here two days ago and stayed in a nearby hotel. Apart from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and booking a ship to go out to sea, she had been wandering outside the Spirit Hall and was almost caught by the Spirit Hall staff as a spy.
"You're finally here!" Romantina hurriedly came forward when she saw Zhou Qing and the others. "Living in a big city like this is so expensive. I'm almost becoming a beggar."
Seeing her exaggerate, Zhou Qing asked curiously, "How much money do you have left?"
"There are only about three hundred gold soul coins left." Romantina came out alone this time and only brought one thousand gold soul coins. She thought it would be enough.
But I didn't expect that it didn't cost much to go to the Far North, but I spent nearly 700 gold soul coins after staying in this Hanhai City for two days.
Among them, 600 gold soul coins were used to book a ship for sailing.
The remaining one hundred or so is used for food, drink, and toilet expenses in the hotel.
"Even if it's in the main city, spending one hundred gold soul coins in two days is too exaggerated, right? You're not staying in the most luxurious hotel, are you?" Zhou Qing asked suspiciously.
"Nonsense! I'm just staying in a hotel that specializes in serving soul masters!" Romantina said that it was definitely not the most luxurious hotel.
Zhou Qing: “…”
The hotel's duties are marked as [Service Soul Master], even if it is not the most luxurious, it is definitely expensive.
"Okay, let's not talk about this." Tang San suggested, "In a few days, Notting College will start school, and we have to run back to report later. Let's go out to sea as soon as possible to hunt the Rubik's Cube Octopus."
"follow me!"
Romantina didn't want to stay in Hanhai City any longer, otherwise she would have to use up the 300 gold soul coins in her pocket.
Arrive at the port.
Boats of all sizes were moored at the shore. Sailors from some of the ships were carrying all kinds of fish and shrimp to the shore, packing them in watertight wooden boxes and transporting them to the city in truckloads.
"It seems that the people along the coast can eat meat, but why not transport so much meat to the inland?" Xiao Wu wondered, "Then wouldn't the people in the inland be able to eat fish and shrimp? And with such a large quantity, the price of meat would be very cheap, right?"
Tang San also thought this was a good deal.
But why doesn’t anyone do it?
Since the Tiandou Empire did not do this, he could still think that it was because the powerful and wealthy were unwilling to let the people have enough to eat. After all, when people are well fed, they will think about sex, and they are worried that if the people are well fed, they will become restless.
But why don’t businessmen do this?
Zhou Qing replied: "From a practical point of view, it is a matter of transportation costs. Fish and shrimp will go bad after one day. It is a big problem to transport so many marine fish and shrimp to inland areas to keep them fresh."
Let the owner of an ice-attributed martial spirit go to freeze?
Stop it!
Would a normal soul master do such a thing?
As for the method of making ice from saltpeter - in this era when humans did not know enough about various minerals, how much saltpeter would be consumed for so many fish? Moreover, there were no similar mines along the coast, and it would cost a lot of money to import it from inland, which was not worth the cost.
As the old saying goes, if you want to get rich, build roads first.
If the roads are not repaired, transportation and communication will be inconvenient, how can business truly develop?
"So, if we really change the world in the future, the first thing we need to do is build roads, lots of wide, flat roads, not only to connect villages, but also to connect cities, making transportation more convenient, so that people can communicate more, and more ideas can be exchanged, and the whole world can develop."
