Chapter 366 Departure
Because there is a general direction, Liang En can also be targeted in the preparation work in London, such as finding some information that has little to do with the whole matter from the perspective of outsiders.
After comparing the information with the memories in his mind, Liang En found that the expedition team in this world was not much different from the expedition team in another world.
That is to say, the difference between those relic locations in the previous world and this world is likely to be small, so the difficulty of finding the target decreases exponentially.
In order to confirm this information, Liang En checked the information for two weeks, and then took the information that still needs to be checked with everyone to the port of Cove in the west of Ireland.
In addition to searching for information, Liang En also conducted tests and training related to polar exploration with everyone during this period. Of course, the main trainees were Mr. Scudder and Joan of Arc.
Among the remaining three people, Liang En himself is no stranger to polar travel because he has acquired knowledge and memories about the Vikings, while Fan Meng and Pierce have obviously been trained in this area before, and they don't need to spend a lot of money either. time to study.
Therefore, after a simple test, all three of them were exempted from training in this area. They only need to go to that special training place every day, and then simply practice for about an hour to find their status.
"It feels like this boat has changed a lot from before." After they boarded the boat from the pier, Liang En saw the huge changes on the boat at first glance.
Almost all the gorgeous decorations on the boat disappeared during the first two trips on this boat, and the empty space was filled with various cabinets and boxes.
If the interior of previous ships highlighted the yacht side, the current ship fully embodies the expedition ship side.
"This is mainly a temporary modification for my Arctic travel plan, which is to unload the removable decorations that were originally designed, and then make simple modifications on it to make the ship more suitable for expedition work." Mr. Skold explained.
Different from ordinary private yachts, Mr. Skold's yacht is an expedition yacht refitted from an icebreaker. Although it is usually used as a luxury yacht most of the time, it can be turned into a real yacht with simple modifications. expedition ship.
"Also because it's an adventure, it's best for us to get used to the life on board by crossing the Atlantic Ocean first, so that we can start working directly after arriving in Canada."
"Understood." Liang En nodded, and then asked as he looked at the ship that was gradually moving away from the pier, "But I don't seem to see the Discovery Channel photographer on the ship."
"They will meet us in Canada. Besides them, Nelson's Victory will also meet us there." Scudder patted the handrail on the side and said.
"That's a good boat comparable to my Valkyrie, but I believe that the team on that boat will definitely not beat us in the next race."
Yes, we're sure to find those things before they do. "Liang En also nodded firmly. Although the other party probably has more information, he believes that he who cheated is stronger in this respect.
Traveling across the Atlantic is not an easy task, especially when taking the North Atlantic route, which also caused many people on board to have seasickness reactions of varying severity.
For example, Joan of Arc's seasickness reaction is more obvious, so Liang En mainly took care of her during the few days on the boat, besides further summarizing the information and trying to find more clues.
"I'm sorry, if I knew you were seasick, I wouldn't have called you here." Liang En apologized to Joan who was sitting by the side and watching Liang En read a book.
For Joan, who had never seen the sea in her previous life, taking a boat in a place with high winds and high waves in the North Atlantic was indeed a severe test for her.
In the first day or two, Joan could only drink some liquid food, and at the same time she was so dizzy that she couldn't get up in bed. Fortunately, the situation is much better these days, at least she can cook and eat some poorly cooked food food.
"You didn't do anything wrong in this matter. Since I chose to follow you, how could I shrink back because of such a small problem." Joan put down the book and smiled.
"And you see, haven't I gotten better these days? This means that I have overcome another difficulty and made greater progress. Overall, it is a good thing."
Because of the recovery of Joan's body, Liang En was able to relax.Taking advantage of this opportunity, he introduced the specific situation of this goal to everyone in the meeting room on the ship.
"—According to the existing information, the two ships that disappeared that year were the most advanced ships of that era. In addition to sails, they were also equipped with steam engines, and even specially prepared metal railings for the propellers to avoid being destroyed by ice."
"If you look at the situation of these two ships and the information of the two whaling ships that saw them in Baffin Bay last time, they should have successfully explored the second half of the Arctic route, which is the part close to the Pacific Ocean."
"It makes sense, so we can rule out a large part of the possible locations to the east." Scudder nodded and said, "But I heard that you seem to have found some information that no one has found before."
"Yes, I found this information through the National Museum of Ireland." Liang En said after changing a picture of a manuscript paper full of text on the screen.
"This is a discovery by an Irish explorer. Unfortunately, he died of illness and was buried at sea on the way to search. Only the notebook with this information was sent back to his hometown, but the British at that time ignored it for various reasons. information from above."
This item was indeed not within Liang En's expectations, but what he had obtained after sending messages to various museums and libraries he was familiar with for help when he was looking for things in London.
Considering that the expedition that year was very famous in Europe, Liang En thought about collecting as much information as possible, so that he would have something to say when he found his target in the future.
What he didn't expect was that he actually found one of the most important pieces of information in the process of finding the wrecks of these two ships in another world in his impression in a document sent by the Irish side.
"This message said that there was a news among the Inuit residents of the Arctic at that time: a group of white people of unknown origin were dying on the coast of the Arctic. They even killed each other." Liang En pointed to the picture on the screen. Speaking of.
"This news is very important." Fan Meng said after carefully reading the above record, "But why didn't anyone pay attention to this report after that?"
"Because this thing came from an Irishman." Pierce said as if thinking of something. "And it was the time of the Great Irish Famine, so there was a huge gap between the two sides."
"I think this person may have considered a series of issues before his death and never thought of telling the British people this information, which is why this is happening now."
"The guess you mentioned is very likely to be true." Liang En nodded and said. "According to the library's records, this notebook has never been looked at by anyone before, and I am the first person other than the author to see these records."
