After he made his selection, Kalia passed Ouyang Shuo an incredibly thick book.

He accepted the book; it was the Atlantis Mimicry Flying Device Making Technical Manual. After use, one would automatically learn the related crafting technique.

The minimum requirement of magnetic ohlite was green, and one green crystal could sustain six hours of flight; one blue could last for 12 hours.

As a flying device, its speed could not be compared to modern day airplanes. Based on the introduction from the manual, its speed was 200 kilometers per hour at maximum.

One green magnetic ohlite could only sustain one flying device to go past one prefecture. If one needed to perform long distance scouting, they needed airports at each prefecture to allow for landing and re-supplying.

Apart from creating scouting squads, the presence of the technical manual could help to raise the industrial ability of Shanhai.

One must not look at these devices as simple flying devices that relied heavily on the magnetic ohlite and patterns. Its technical standards and exquisite parts were all worth the No.7 Research Institute looking into.

In modern day society, the crafting standards of airplanes represented the industrial level of a country. The design, the materials, and similar factors concerned nearly all departments and could cause a raise in skill level for a series of related industries.

This manual could definitely help Shanhai City break past the constraints of their technology tree. This manual was an all-round boost for their just developing industries.

When she saw that Ouyang Shuo had browsed through the book, Kalia passed another small book, "This is also for you."

Atlantis Seafaring Technical Manual: After use, automatically obtain the accumulated seafaring techniques gathered by the Atlantis people.

10 thousand years ago, before they sunk, Atlantis was an ocean superpower. Its seafaring techniques could be compared to 18th century Europe.

Hence, this manual was a massive boon for the seafaring industry of Shanhai City. In the future, when they competed with the westerners, they would not lose out in terms of techniques at the very least.

Another extra reward, it seems that Kalia was truly interested in Ouyang Shuo.

……

After leaving the research center, it was time for Ouyang Shuo to leave Atlantis.

Under Kalia's accompaniment, Ouyang Shuo passed the bridge and met up with the Divine Martial Guards in the center circle. Looking at them from far, one could see the mountains of underwater breathing devices at their feet.

Apart from that, there were also a great assortment of random items. Needless to say, these were the items that they had gathered from the ruins.

There was such a saying, ‘With such a master, there would be such a servant.’ Although it was not truly apt to describe the Divine Martial Guards, in terms of scouring, they took the same approach as him.

If it was other times, Ouyang Shuo would have praised them. Now, however, he glanced at Kalia's face in embarrassment.

Atlantis rose up to the surface, so these items could not be considered ownerless objects. Strictly speaking, they were not picking items but were stealing.

After his men committed an act, how could Ouyang Shuo face the warm and passionate Kalia?

When Kalia saw his expression, she smiled in a manner that did not really look like a smile and said, "Brother Wuyi, I had wanted to give you some local specialties. Now, I don't need to search for them."

In a short time, the way that Kalia addressed Ouyang Shuo had changed several times.

The greed of Ouyang Shuo's men had given her a new understanding of him, making her excited. It was like this mysterious man was actually human.

Such an interesting find, how would she not be delighted?

He smiled; his skin was still as thick as ever, and he causally placed all those items into his storage bag.

Without mentioning the other items, just the underwater breathing devices were treasures.

He would not use them to search for treasures; such luck-based ventures were not his style. However, using these devices to form a frogmen unit was totally possible.

In reality, frogmen were in charge of scouting, infiltrating, and other special missions. Since their equipment included flippers that made them look like frogs, they were named as frogmen.

Their missions were top secret and extremely dangerous, often in enemy region.

Their equipment included masks, flippers, oxygen tanks, and rubber suits.

In comparison, this underwater breathing device was a bug level existence. No matter how advanced modern-day society was, they could not build such strong frogmen equipment.

With that, Shanhai City possessed one more trump card.

……

Atlantis outer circle island, North Port.

It was finally time to say goodbye. To make it convenient for them to meet up with the voyage squadron, Kalia especially gifted him two shark mimicry warships. Apart from that, she also gave him a dolphin mimicry flying device.

As expected from the Queen of Atlantis, so generous.

Ouyang Shuo made the Divine Martial Guards board the warships while he drove the flying device. Under the instructions of Little Green, they rushed toward the voyage squadron’s location.

It was time to deal with the Spanish.

……

7th month, 27th day morning, Gibraltar Ocean region.

When Ouyang Shuo landed on Dragon Head with the mimicry flying device, it was obvious how much shock Zheng He and the other sailors felt.

Without Little Green leading the way, Zheng He would have probably ordered them to fire.

When Ouyang Shuo walked out of the cabin, the soldiers cheered passionately. If it was not for military discipline and laws, they would have probably rushed up to look at the flying device.

Even in their wildest dreams, the soldiers would not think that there would be something that could fly like a bird.

"Are we dreaming?" A blur looking soldier pinched his own thigh.

"Guys, is this iron thing from the heavens?"

"The Lord is really valiant; he has enough courage to ride a beast like this."

The appearance of the mimicry flying divine had sunk their knowledge of this world. Even Zheng He was in a state of shock and disbelief.

Ouyang Shuo smiled, not bothering the excited soldiers and directly calling Zheng He to the war room. The moment he sat down, he asked Zheng He for a report, "So what's the current situation?"

Zheng He did not dare be slow and described everything in detail.

"So, we lack the strength to face the Spanish squadron?" Ouyang Shuo frowned.

Zheng He felt ashamed, "I'm sorry; I haven't thought of a method to crush them."

Ouyang Shuo waved his hand. After all, he knew that the voyage squadron lacked manpower; he could not blame Zheng He. However, if he did not teach them a lesson, Ouyang Shuo could not accept it.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little depressed, Zheng He tried to avoid the topic; he cupped his fists and said, "The Lord's might has shocked everyone in the Mediterranean. I'm in awe."

Ouyang Shuo nodded, describing the whole Atlantis journey simply to him. Zheng He listened like he was in a trance; the mysterious Atlantic Civilization was even more amazing than he had imagined.

"I hope you don’t mind me asking, but how many underwater breathing devices did the Lord o

Ouyang Shuo had not counted them, so he just looked into his storage bag and took a sweeping glance, "No less than 10 thousand." He paused for a while, "Why? Do you have a new plan?"

Zheng He was always a careful person. Without a certain amount of confidence, he would not have even asked.

"I was thinking about whether we could use it to send sailors to infiltrate their ships to sink them. At that time, won't they be at our mercy?" Zheng He spoke out his plan.

Ouyang Shuo's eyes lit up, "That's possible, but we need to plan the specifics. Such a sneak attack can only happen once. Once they are prepared for it, it will be difficult for it to succeed."

"Understood!"

The two of them spent more than two hours in the war room. During which, he also called one the navy strategist and other generals to discuss matters to ensure that there were no gaps in the plan.

That afternoon, the battle plan was put into play.

The voyage squadron sent out a large number of cima boats to scout and locate the specific position of the Spanish Squadron ships. At the key moment, Ouyang Shuo personally flew out on the mimicry flying device to scout.

Even Little Green was sent out by Ouyang Shuo.

When they were totally clear on the position of the Spanish Squadron, it was time for the ‘frogmen’ to display their worth. They sailed out on the cima boats, reaching the ocean regions near the Spanish Squadron and diving deep down before sneaking under the ships.

Only when night fell did they start to chisel the boats.

The frogmen force that Ouyang Shuo had planned appeared in the early stages of history. The current frogmen were just a bunch of sailors carrying simple tools; they were a far cry from what he had imagined.

The true frogmen army did not simply chisel boats. Instead, they could infiltrate the ships to kill the enemy leader. They could even enter the enemy port to sabotage it.

Such a frogmen force was enough to handle the current Spanish Squadron. After all, no one would expect that people could travel around underwater so easily at this a stage.

Such ghosts could definitely deal a fatal blow to the Spanish Squadron.

At sunset, the voyage squadron once again split into four and sailed toward the four biggest Spanish Squadrons, ready to reap the fruits of their labour and send the Spanish Squadron to hell.
