Chapter 680 Little Giant
The bookstore in the stronghold has most of the books in Earth Sea, and the four walls are full of books of different sizes.
However, compared with other lively entertainment venues, this place is very deserted, and most explorers don't like knowledge.
The white-covered books that had just arrived received no attention at all, except for a few crew members with special hobbies who were picking out pornographic books.
"Hey~ it stinks, it smells so bad." Lily held her nose and stayed away from the stack of new books.
"The most expensive purple-ringed octopus ink has this kind of smell. It's a smell that only new books have. As time goes by, this smell will gradually fade, and eventually turn from a smell to a fragrance." Grace took Pick up a book and just flip through it.
"I don't believe it, you must have lied to me, how could the smell turn into a fragrance." Lily stuck out her little tongue at her.
But Grace didn't seem to hear it. Her attention was already attracted by the book in her hand. After reading it for a few minutes, she threw the book in her hand excitedly and rushed to the pile of books to find something quickly.
"I found it! I knew there was the original version!" Grace flipped through the book excitedly, and began to read it carefully.
Lily walked under her suspiciously, looking at the writing in her hand. "Elementary physics? What's in this book?"
Seeing the other party bury her head completely between the pages of the book, Lily sighed helplessly. Grace was so fascinated, it seemed that the next movie would be useless.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and ran to the owner of the bookstore and asked, "Old gentleman, where are the romance novels?"
The next day, the two stayed in the bookstore until the other party closed the door and reminded that Grace, who was fascinated, returned from the ocean of knowledge.
"These books! I want them all! This is amazing. It turns out that the legend is true, and the Eye of Truth used this method to create the entire world!!"
Grace, who was holding a stack of books, happily told Lily about the new knowledge she discovered in these strange books. He looked very excited, as if a new world had appeared.
After reading these books, Grace found that the way she looked around had changed.
"Lily, let me tell you, these are just a little bit of the front! I heard that all kinds of knowledge from the foundation can weigh several tons! I guess I won't be able to understand all this knowledge even if I look at it for the rest of my life."
When Grace couldn't stop talking for a moment, she suddenly collided with someone else, and the stack of Lao Gao's books was immediately scattered on the ground.
"Sorry, I was wrong! I should have seen the road." Grace apologized while picking up various books on the ground.
At this moment, a mechanical arm stretched down from above and picked up a book in front of it.
When Grace raised her head, she was surprised to find that the person hit by her was a two-meter-tall giant. In an environment where the surface was not cold, his whole body was wrapped tightly in black cloth, and his whole body was a little uncoordinated. Very big, but with a small head.
He opened the book called "Introduction to Mechanical Drawing" page by page with his steel palm, and checked the contents. After Grace and Lily stacked up the scattered books again, they found that the other party was still reading. with.
"Sir, do you also like to learn a lot of knowledge from it?" Grace didn't care about the strange appearance of the other party at all. Seeing that the other party looked so seriously, she thought she had found a good friend.
"Are you a girl who is also interested in machinery?"
The man raised his head, glanced at Lily on the ground with his eyes under the black cloth, and then looked at Grace. His voice sounded low and hoarse, and appeared to be that of a middle-aged male.
"Yeah! I'm very interested, but it's not just about machinery, I like to read any book! The knowledge in it is very interesting."
The little giant looked down, looked up and down, and returned the book in his hand.
"Are you from the Western Sea Region? I have dealt with them before, and they are very rigid. You are actually interested in machinery. This is really rare."
Grace seemed to hear the approval in the voice, a blush appeared on her face, and she took the book shyly. "No, if there is a way to contact the outside world, everyone is also very curious, and these things have never existed before!"
Upon hearing this, the little giant's tone became a little excited. "No! This knowledge is not brought by the foundation and Charles at all!! Earthsea has already existed, otherwise do you think electricity, and where did such an advanced turbine ship come from?!"
Seeing that the other party was a little scared, his voice gradually slowed down. "Son, have you ever heard of British Isle, the island of machinery?"
Grace was taken aback by what the little giant said. She thought for a while and said timidly, "This doesn't seem to be an island in the Western Sea. Sorry, I don't know much about it. This is the first time I have left Lighthouse Island."
"Come on, let me buy you a drink. I will tell you the story of the British Isle in detail. It is an island completely built by machines, and many wonderful stories have happened on it." After the masked little giant finished speaking, he only looked at the He turned around and walked towards the lively bar next to him.
Grace was a little hesitant. She turned her head to ask Lily for advice, but she saw Lily looking around constantly.
"Lily, what's wrong?"
"I don't know, I always feel like someone is watching me." Lily's little head was full of doubts.
"Well, it shouldn't be dangerous for us to go to the bar, right? The book says that many bars in the dock area are full of bad guys."
Hearing this, Lily's attention was immediately attracted, her ears perked up and she nodded excitedly, "Okay, okay, let's go to the bar to play! We haven't been to that kind of place, and I haven't had a drink either." liquor!"
Under Lily's persuasion, one person and one mouse walked into the crowded bar. As soon as they came in, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the bar.
This also included Plank, the chef of the Narwhal sitting in the corner, and he quickly pulled out his hand that had been inserted into the waitress's clothes. "What is Lily doing here?"
But before he could figure it out, he saw the man and the mouse sitting down by the bar under the call of a little giant. After thinking for a while, Plaque picked up a glass of bubbling beer from the waitress' tray. He leaned over slowly.
"The British Isle is a city of industry and machinery. A large part of the materials and ships in the entire sea area come from it, not to mention the core of the current navigation. The turbine is an invention on the British Isle." The voice of the little giant Said with a touch of emotion.
