Chapter 639：

Before Nathan and Edward took a few steps, Nathan, who was talking with his head tilted, was hit hard and almost fell.

He steadied himself, trying to see who the rash guy was.

The person who hit him was even more embarrassed than him, and fell directly to the ground.

But the man immediately bounced off the ground and started yelling to himself.

"It's round! It's really round!"

There was no pain on his face, but full of excitement, and it could even be said that he was crazy.

Danced and danced like a drunk who had been drinking all night.

"Since it is round, then everything can be explained! The moon, and the stars, all the doubts about them are now answered."

"Woooo! My teacher, it would be great if you were still alive, and it would be great if you could witness this moment in person."

The man was laughing and crying, looking completely unreasonable.

With the other party's appearance, Nathan and Edward consciously stayed away from him.

"Look, Edward."

Nathan looked at the lunatic with pity, and sighed, "What a poor guy."

Cable's mood was agitated right now.

I am not far away, and I took a boat from Jiaowan to Northwest Bay. This trip is really worth it.

He'd never been so excited to be an astrologer... no, maybe he had, it's just been so miserable that the good old days were a distant memory.

As an astrologer of the Kingdom of Collins, he was taught by the long-established astrologer Viscount Brar, and he had a bright future. If there is no accident, he will become a court favorite like his teacher in a few years. Wealth and status are at your fingertips.

But a murder puts an end to it all, and Viscount Brair, who opposed the war, is unexplainably killed.

The reason given by the official investigation is very ridiculous-Viscount Brar was suffocated to death by urine.

Cable, who finds it ridiculous, insists that the teacher's death be re-investigated.

Then he fled under the reminder of a mysterious note.

Cable later inquired that after he escaped, he was the murderer who killed the teacher. The reason for the murder was that he coveted the teacher's stargazing records for many years.

Cable is furious at what has been wronged on his home soil.

After he escaped from Collins, he came to the Horn Bay League and found a job as an accountant by virtue of his mathematical knowledge.

As for the original professional astrologer, don't even think about it. How could the Horn Bay League use a Collinsian as an astrologer.

It was thought that there would be temporary stability, but as the conflict between the coastal and inland countries began to intensify rapidly, it became increasingly difficult for the Collins like Cable, who were allied in the Horn Bay.

He accepted the suggestion of his Aldo friend Liszt to leave Horn Bay before the war officially broke out.

That's right, after the war breaks out, if he is in an inland country, he will be arrested as a murderer. If he is in a coastal country, he will also have a high chance of being arrested as an inland spy, so he can only go outside the Horn Bay place.

In this way, Cable embarked on a passenger ship to the Northwest Bay of Aldo. Under Liszt's introduction, the Northwest Bay gave Cable a good impression, and there are a large number of people from Jiaowan making a living there.

As an astrologer, Cable and his teacher, Viscount Brar, have always been supporters of the theory of the round earth, because many astrological changes they observed can only be explained under the premise that the earth is round.

For example, some stars will rise higher as you go north, and some new stars will appear on the northern horizon, while some stars will fall on the southern horizon.

For another example, during a lunar eclipse, the shape of the earth projected onto the moon is a circle.

Although there are various inferences, astrologers have been suffering from the lack of direct evidence.

And today, on this land thousands of miles away from the corner bay, Cable finally ushered in the direct evidence of the round earth theory.

Aldo actually took a boat and circled directly.

What evidence could be more intuitive than this? Great!

Cable was so excited that he couldn't feel the pain and forgot to apologize when he accidentally bumped into someone and fell to the ground.

He ran towards the pier with all his strength to meet the returning hero!

"Look! They are all coming to meet us!"

While waving his arms towards the turbulent crowd, the deputy spoke loudly to Grant.

"Yes, we're finally home!"

Grant couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.

"The earth is round, we proved it!"

"We circled the earth!"

The team members around kept shouting to the crowd, and every time they got a warm response.

People didn't seem surprised when they sailed into port in their crumbling ship and said they were the returning expedition.

After all, the other two exploration teams had already returned before them, and Port Fulan had experienced similar experiences several times.

But when they said that they were the Western Expeditionary Team that was rumored to have been wiped out and returned from the East after circumnavigating the land for a week People who knew the news began to feel uneasy.

Due to Arda's emphasis on education, most people here know that there is still such a strange saying as the round earth in the world. Although it is counterintuitive, it can indeed explain many phenomena.

In Arda's previous publicity, the lord sent an exploration fleet to verify whether the theory of the circle of the earth is true.

The lords have paid so much attention to it, if it can be proved whether it is true or not, it must be a great achievement - this is what most people think.

And traveling the world would have been a remarkable feat—something the other two exploration fleets failed to do.

Now the locals can puff up their chests and show off to all outsiders: Listen to me, you bumpkins, the Arda people were the first to travel around the world, and they also proved that the earth is round.

So the news was spread ten times and hundreds of times, and it quickly spread to the entire city.

People kept coming to watch. Ge Lan and the others had been off the boat for a long time, and they were still stuck in the dock area and did not go out.

Shaking hands, hugging, waving, even signing autographs, these actions are repeated over and over again.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

The dense crowd was squeezed out of a way abruptly.

A team of police officers came in front of Gülen and the others.

"Hello, Mr. Grant!"

The leader said to him with a look of admiration, "Master Mayor invites you and your team members to the central square, which is very spacious. I think everyone is very curious about your experience. You can tell the public there Let us tell of your adventures."

"Thank you, I'd love to!"

Grant took off his hair and saluted the sheriff in front of him.

At this time, he suddenly remembered the team members who were captured by the natives on another continent.

May God keep them safe.
