Chapter 295: Inside the Ship

The meal that Xiao Liang had prepared for them was sumptuous and delicious. After they finished eating, someone naturally served them new dishes.

At that moment, everyone realized that there were other people on the ship as well. There were quite a few people on Xiao Liang’s ship. A few maidservants were serving the food. However, their skin color was. There were yellow, white, and black maids.

Apart from them, the chefs also came out to meet the guests. They were all people from various countries who were communicating in a language that no one recognized. Besides, the system did not translate this time. This was probably because this language was not recorded in the system’s database.

Wei Huo asked, “Did you get all this food from the deep sea?”

Xiao Liang nodded. “Yes, given the speed of my ship, as long as I hang a fishing net and sail around the sea, I can catch countless fish. Sometimes, I will stop the ship and the people on it will take a small boat to hunt the birds in the sky. Sometimes, we will go ashore and trade with the locals or hunt animals on land. However, compared to the land, there are more animals and plants in the sea. It is impossible for a ship like mine to extract them all.”

Wei Huo asked, “Who are these people?”

Xiao Liang replied, “They are some of the victims I encountered while traveling across the continent. These victims entered the ship willingly to serve me. I guarantee their safety. Some of their grandfathers entered my ship when they were younger. They married and had children on this ship and lived happily on it. There are about 100 people on my ship.”

At that moment, a chef around 50 years old walked out with a group of young chefs carrying all sorts of food. The food served this time surprised Wei Huo and the others, as it included stir-fried pork, braised pork, and twice-cooked pork. The room smelled like pork. The chef behind them brought some fruit they had never seen before. There were also dairy products and desserts. This made them curious. Could there be a pig farm and a sugar factory on this ship?

Xiao Liang said, “This is sea turtle meat and whale meat. The dairy products are made of whale milk. The fruit is a kind of underwater algae. More than 80% of the food and daily necessities here come from the ocean. Even the chairs and the table we’re sitting at did not come from land. They came from the deep sea.”

Everyone was amazed, but the golden armor was unhappy. It could only look and could not taste anything.

It knew very well that Xiao Liang was a typical citizen of China. It was evident based on the way he had invited the few of them to a meal, just like most Chinese people entertained at the dining table. It would be better if there was also alcohol.

At that moment, Xiao Liang suddenly clapped his hands. A few maidservants walked over with a few bottles of alcohol. This alcohol was different. There was red wine, white wine, and beer. Of course, there were also drinks, such as fruit juice and vegetable juice.

Wei Huo asked, “When did you build this ship?”

Xiao Liang said, “A long time ago. At the time, this ship could not go underwater and it was not that big. I was still a young man then. Although I was born on land, I wanted to swim in the sea and travel among the stars. That was why I worked hard to earn money and built this ship.”

Wei Huo immediately said, “You said you were a young man. How did you earn the money to build this ship?”

Xiao Liang smiled and said, “My experience earning money was indeed curious, but please allow me to not share it for the time being. You will understand as we travel underwater. Actually, this method is very simple. What it requires is just a little courage.”

The food was removed from the table. The golden armor watched helplessly as the unfinished food was taken away by the maids. It hated this. It hated itself for lacking a mouth.

After everyone had their fill, Xiao Liang led them out of the restaurant and into an extremely huge room. There were countless tall wooden bookshelves in the room with rows of books on them. There were also tables, chairs, and a huge sofa in the middle of the room.

Xiao Liang invited everyone to sit on the sofa and transmitted Divine Sense. A few seconds after the Divine Sense was transmitted, an electric current suddenly shot through the ceiling. Then, the iron plate on one side of the huge room suddenly opened on both sides. Everyone saw a protruding glass behind the iron plate, and behind the glass was an endless sea.

Wei Huo saw the seawater outside the glass retreating rapidly as the ship was moving forward.

Xiao Liang said, “The Sea God is dead. The ocean he was controlling is now receding. We have to leave this area and return to the ocean immediately. Otherwise, the ship will be stranded. However, we can use this opportunity to show everyone the scenery under the sea.”

The golden armor approached a row of bookshelves and quickly pulled out a physics textbook. After flipping through a few pages, it was shocked. “What is this? A science textbook?”

Xiao Liang looked over and said, “Those are all physics textbooks. A few of them are stored there, and most of them are printed so the children on the ship can study them. On my ship, the four basic subjects children must study are Physics, Chemistry, Magic, and Runes. Otherwise, they will not be qualified to work on the ship when they grow up. They have to understand these four basic subjects no matter what they do on this ship.”

The golden armor was stunned. “Is this f*cking basic knowledge? The basic subjects include relativity and quantum mechanics!?”

After Xiao Liang led them around the library, he led them further down. They then arrived at a treasure room. There were all sorts of shells, pearls, underwater creatures, skulls, and even fossils there. There were also precious types of jade, pearls, and collections of paintings and carvings.

The treasure room was huge, and there were many things stored inside. It was obvious that Xiao Liang had encountered all sorts of weird creatures while traveling in the deep sea.

At that moment, Xiao Liang suddenly said, “I’m a person with endless desire for knowledge. When I spent an extremely long time traveling through the waters of the four continents, I wanted to do something. I wanted to circle the equator of this planet. I wanted to be the Columbus of this new era. I wanted to see if there were any new continents on the back of the Earth. In order to fulfill my wish, the Sea God’s trident was necessary. This divine weapon could control the sea. Only with it could I have a chance of circling the planet. After all, we don’t know what kind of monsters are hidden in the deep sea. We have no idea whether a new civilization was born at the bottom of the sea or whether there are new continents on the back of the Earth.”
