Myriad Paths

Chapter 548 Leaving the Chamber of Commerce

In the giant ship, above the ecological dome, next to the maintenance layer.

Li Shiwei walked up and wiped Zhang You's sweat, frowned and said: "Be careful, operating the maintenance facilities is a bit too consuming for you. Alas, didn't I say I would fish you to the monitoring post, where there is no work, but you have to do these dirty and tiring work, why bother?"

Zhang You smiled and said: "The remuneration here is twice that of the monitoring post. The Chamber of Commerce has always distributed remuneration according to work. The more difficult and hard work you can get, the more you can get. I am not like you, the eldest lady, who doesn't care about the remuneration at all. No, I said it wrong, your work is harder and more difficult... The remuneration is five times that of mine. The position of the captain of the security post has a lot of people and things to deal with, right?"

"They are all small things, just do it right and honestly." Li Shiwei waved her hand and didn't care much.

Zhang You smiled and didn't answer this sentence.

Li Shiwei did these six words.

'Do it right and honestly', it's easy to say, how many people can do it? Li Shiwei is a rare person who is consistent in what he says and what he does.

That's why Zhang You likes to be friends with her, even though their identities and family backgrounds are very different, because she knows that Li Shiwei will never have any other opinions about her because of this difference.

"By the way, you are usually very busy. Why did you take the initiative to find me this time? Are you investigating a case? Did you find a clue to me? Isn't it right? Isn't investigating a case something that the subordinates do?" Zhang You was a little curious.

"It's not an investigation, I just want to tell you that I'm going to resign. When this route is over and it's time to go back, I'll leave then." Li Shiwei replied with a smile.

"Resign? Why?" Zhang You was stunned.

Now Li Shiwei's status is already quite high in her opinion, and her salary is also very considerable. Seeing that it is getting better and better, she may be able to go to the management of the Chamber of Commerce in the future.

This is a bright future, why resign?

"After the circular route, these places are meaningless. I also have to avoid the world related to the Chamber of Commerce, because I am now looking for commonalities between worlds and civilizations to make comparisons. This may be my seventh-grade foundation." Li Shiwei said to her bestie.

Zhang You opened his mouth, but said nothing.

Is this the other party's ambition?

Yes, a mere high-level member of a Chamber of Commerce would definitely not be able to stop it. The other party's family can have several sixth-grade caves... According to her own jade pendant on her waist, it is also a sixth-grade mountain jade.

This level is enough to show that the other party's family background may even be as powerful as the Chamber of Commerce. The elders in the family may be fifth-grade great powers...

If the fifth-grade great power is your elder, how powerful it would be...

However, only this kind of family background can cultivate such an excellent junior like Li Shiwei.

"That's good. Let's celebrate for you. You shouldn't have eaten my cooking for a long time, right? Do you want to go to my dormitory?" Zhang You said frankly.

"Okay~." Li Shiwei agreed readily.

Neither of them felt any regrets, nor did they think that this matter had any special meaning, that was all.

It wasn't like they were dead, Li Shiwei was just pursuing her own goals, and Zhang You was still working on the ship, everything was fine.

The two went hand in hand to Zhang You's dormitory and cooked an ordinary meal. The dishes were rich, but they were all ordinary ingredients, nothing particularly valuable.

There was no need.

After this dinner, Li Shiwei returned to her daily life.

And this time, a few years passed simply.

The mission of the last world was completed, and the goods of this world were obtained again, and the base of this world was supplied. The only thing left was to return to the Holy Flame Realm.

Returning to the Holy Flame Realm, unloading, crew rest and change of shifts, ship repair and supply, and after the formation, they set off again. This is a circular route.

The merchants of various civilizations attached to the ship will also use the Holy Flame Realm, the sixth-grade world, as a distribution center to exchange the harvest they have traveled for twenty years and send the profits back to their hometown world.

The entire world group is thriving in such a cycle.

With the Chamber of Commerce, this world group has benefited greatly. The Chamber of Commerce has connected all the worlds and civilizations in this world group, allowing them to exchange what they have and communicate with each other. At the same time, it has also brought advanced Taoism and magic from the world.

Perhaps this is a way to force the growth of many civilizations, but if there is no Chamber of Commerce, perhaps they will not even have the opportunity to sprout.

This is also the means of expansion of the "world".

I don’t know how many civilizations have abandoned their own unique "Tao" and turned to practice the Taoism of the world.

This is not a violent crushing, but a high-level condescending view.

In addition to humanity, the world actually doesn’t like violent conflicts. They just come, so... these worlds surrender.

If they don’t surrender or are not hostile, then the world will regard them as fellow travelers. As long as there is no Tao dispute, they are friends.

But few worlds can persist. After all... when the real gods appear in the mortal world, how many people can persist in not kneeling?

And Li Shiwei will leave here after this cycle ends and go to the world that is said to have never seen the Chamber of Commerce, the special world that the leader knows.

The stone vibrated and said, "Boss, all preparations are ready. You can get off the boat now."

"Well, let's go." Li Shiwei sorted out her mustard bag, made sure she had everything with her, then took another ticket and left the ship quietly.

In fact, it was not so quiet, because the news had spread all over the ship long ago, but she didn't want others to see her off when she left, so she left quietly.

As for the other ticket in her hand, it was a new ship.

After all, she was only an eighth-grade ship, and it was very unwise to cross the void by herself. She still had to drive to places where people couldn't walk.

But it was not a world-class ship, but a small flying boat that was dozens of feet long and wide.

She rented this ship and planned to ride it alone, using it to cross the void and go to the world that the captain said had never been polluted by the Chamber of Commerce.

Everything was in order.

Holding the ticket that she had prepared in advance, she spent eleven years of her own salary to rent it, and the lease period was also eleven years. From this price, it can be seen that the ship she rented was essentially a seventh-grade magic weapon.

A seventh-grade flying boat, even if it is not a world-class giant ship, is still very valuable.

Of course, it was also rented from the Chamber of Commerce. After all, in this world group, only the Chamber of Commerce has the ability to manufacture, rent and sell seventh-grade magic weapons on a large scale.

Li Shiwei looked a little disgusted when she got the boat from the smiling Chamber of Commerce merchant.

"Ah... This thing is a bit disgusting." She looked at the boat and her mouth twitched.

Shitou said: "It is a bit, but this thing was invented by Zhu people. It should be made with the craftsmanship of witch silkworms. This boat is alive and can adapt to various environments. It can even reach 1.5 times the limit of the Heavenly Dao in the void. It is very suitable for short-distance travel within the world group, but long-distance travel still requires the use of Liexiu or world-class giant ships."

But looking at the ship they described as "disgusting", it was a 30-meter-long living flying boat. The whole was made of a large number of poisonous insects as materials, and the outer shell was made of something similar to chitinous shells, reflecting colorful black.

Some red liquid flowed in the flying boat, like sticky blood, but other than that, it can be considered an ordinary flying boat. It looks the same as an ordinary flying boat, with the same pavilions and decks.

After all, the basic aesthetics are still there, and the functionality is also well maintained, but... this kind of living Gu worm as a material makes people a little uncomfortable.

"Witchcraft silkworm? I have seen it at my father's place, how can it be so disgusting... The things made by the witchcraft silkworm are no different from ordinary magic weapons." Li Shiwei curled her lips.

Shitou said: "How can the craftsmanship of Zhu people be compared with this mass-produced product? These are all flying boats made by the Gu masters below using the witchcraft technique. After all, witchcraft is a minor path, how can it be compared with the Zhu people's lineage?"

"Yes, my father is still very powerful, forget it, it's ugly, as long as it can be used, after all, this thing is said to have good performance and simple operation." Li Shiwei shook her head and boarded this strange flying boat.

The reason why she chose this flying boat is that it is easy to operate. Even if it is only a thirty-meter-long Africa, it is very strenuous for one person to drive it. It is not an easy job to operate a seventh-grade magic weapon.

Generally speaking, a seventh-grade magic weapon needs a seventh-grade practitioner to operate it. If there is no seventh-grade, then a fleet must be formed, and each person is responsible for a part.

But Li Shiwei is only one person, and she is not going to recruit crew members, so she can't operate it without a living ship.

"You are responsible for half, and I am responsible for the other half. Let's go, set off directly!" Li Shiwei smiled, and then started the flying boat.

The blood in the flying boat began to circulate faster, but the large Gu worm suddenly opened its eyes, and the body began to act according to the instinct that had been implanted long ago.

Yes, this is the way to reduce the pressure of operation.

This flying boat is composed of some ignorant and instinctive large Gu worms. These Gu worms have no mind, but have physical instincts. As long as the instincts of these Gu worms are triggered by specific operations, the Gu worms will respond accordingly, just like the witch silkworm.

No... not like that, these were originally made with the technology of the witchcraft silkworm. The witchcraft silkworm technology invented by Li Qi has been widely used in the witchcraft of the Chamber of Commerce and has become a compulsory subject for those witchcraft masters.

This can be regarded as his little contribution to the development of technology in the world.

In other words, as long as you learn how to control the instinctive reactions of these witchcraft insects, you only need simple operations to control this flying boat to make complex movements, because a large number of operations are integrated into the instincts of the witchcraft insects, and there is no need for people to fine-tune it a little bit.

Although this will lead to a decrease in the performance and operability of the flying boat, after all, the characteristic of the witchcraft silkworm is that the performance is relatively poor, which is not as good as the expensive customized magic weapon, but it is enough.

With this feature, Li Shiwei can control an entire flying boat by herself.

Thanks to Li Qi's invention, if it were not for this technology, the Chamber of Commerce would not have a large number of single-person flying boats available for rent to the outside world.

Of course, Li Shiwei didn't feel anything about this, because since she joined the work, single-person flying boats have been commonly equipped and can be seen in many places.

As we all know, the technologies that appeared before I was thirty were commonplace and were part of this world.

For Li Shiwei, although the witch silkworm was a new technology, she had already gotten used to it.

Put the stone in the cockpit. Although he has no hands or feet, he can still perform certain operations.

Then Li Shiwei will be responsible for the energy work behind.

Division of labor and cooperation makes it much easier.

"The coordinates have been determined, let's go!" said the stone.

The flying boat drew a trace in the air, passed through the world barrier that had long been opened by the Holy Flame Realm, and sailed into the distant deep space outside the domain.

This voyage needs to continue to accelerate for three months, sailing at a speed of 1.5 times the limit of the Heavenly Dao for three months.

And this is Li Shiwei's own three months, because when the speed approaches a certain degree of the Heavenly Dao limit, the time of oneself will slow down.

Although practitioners can use magic to raise and improve the Heavenly Dao limit around them, this limit always exists. As long as they get close, it will cause the time to slow down. This is also a manifestation of the "Great Dao" in the real world, just like the ubiquitous gravity, this kind of time speed disorder is also so ubiquitous.

This situation once confused Li Shiwei. It was difficult for her to understand what was going on with this disordered time and space, because the practice she had cultivated allowed her to clearly perceive this difference, but this difference was extremely awkward.

Just like... a nearsighted person looking at words on a computer from a distance of one meter, she could vaguely see something on it, similar to the words she could see written on it, but she just couldn't see it clearly. She wanted to get closer to see it, but she couldn't get close at all, which was very uncomfortable.

This may be related to her Luofu Mountain practice.

It is said that her mother and aunt Yang Ning practiced the great way in this aspect, but unfortunately, Li Shiwei didn't understand it, and now she can't understand why this distortion in time and space is so serious.

But no matter what, it was three months for Li Shiwei, but more than a year had passed in the outside world. During this period, she was stuck in this disorder of time and space, which was extremely painful.

Fortunately, three months later, Shitou, who was placed in the cockpit and controlled the flying boat with his soul, suddenly said, "Boss, it's almost done. I'm going to slow down."

"Okay...you slow down." Li Shiwei said weakly, looking a little haggard.

Sitting in a large world-class ship, she didn't have this feeling. Perhaps it was because of the protection of the world's heavenly way, so the disturbance of time and space was blocked?

Anyway, this kind of small ship is still too stimulating for her now, so that she has almost suffered from neurasthenia and vomited in the past few months.

"Okay, after slowing down, you will feel better. I have to lower the upper limit of the heavenly way limit. The mass of the ship will increase, and it may shake a little."

As he said, accompanied by a tremor, the speed of the ship was forcibly suppressed by the heavenly way limit!

We have arrived.

(Tomorrow, there will be another double update on the first day of next month.)
