Chapter 168

That is to say.

The earth beneath their feet is actually a sphere!

Once this conclusion came out.

Yan widened his eyes, showing disbelief.

Unknowingly.

His breathing also became rapid.

"A sphere?!"

"Actually a sphere?"

He recalled the question the deity tested him with three years ago.

His answer at that time...

Seemed to be a pentagon!

"No! Wrong!"

He realized it abruptly and glared at the captain: "If what is beneath our feet is a sphere, then when you sailed to the bottom of the sphere, why didn't you fall off?"

He pointed to the bottom of the ball in the captain's hand.

If what the captain said was correct...

Then when their fleet sailed to that position, they would definitely fall off!

"Also, you said that what you saw along the way was all ocean; if the earth is a sphere, then how does the ocean below the sphere stick to the earth?"

After these two questions were asked.

The captain's face turned pale with fright instantly.

Stuttering: "Your... Your Majesty, I... I don't know what's going on either, but what I said... is indeed true! Only in this way can it explain why we went east and returned from the west!"

Yan sneered: "Whether you are lying or not, I will find out; you go down and rest well first!"

Then.

He did not blindly convict the captain.

Instead...

He summoned the crew of the Explorer one by one and questioned them strictly!

He believed that even if the captain colluded, he could find flaws.

But...

After questioning them one by one.

He found that everyone's answers were the same.

The first mate, the helmsman, and the Great Yan soldiers who were loyal to him on the ship...

All told him that they went east all the way, and when they saw land again, they returned to the Great Yan Kingdom!

"Really... it's actually true..."

For a moment.

Yan fell into confusion.

Go east, return from the west!

No deviation on the way.

At the same time.

These crew members also provided him with a lot of information.

"They said that when they saw the land of the Great Yan Kingdom, at first, they could only see a line of the coastline, not the full picture; as they approached, they gradually saw the complete land..."

Yan muttered to himself.

"And when sailing the ocean, if the distance was a bit far, they could only see the sails of other ships, and still couldn't see the hull!"

These crew members were unlikely to lie.

That is to say...

Everything was true!

The earth beneath their feet was really a sphere!

Only in this way.

Could it explain various phenomena!

Gradually.

Yan's breathing became more rapid, and his body trembled.

Who could have thought...

The earth beneath his feet was actually a sphere?!

Such a subversive truth caused his mind to surge with huge waves!

And thinking of this question asked by the deity three years ago...

He was instantly ashamed and had nowhere to hide.

He boasted that he knew everything in the human world.

Yet he hadn't even discovered the truth of the earth beneath his feet!

Yan sat withered in the imperial palace.

Looking at the world map drawn before, he instantly felt it was incredibly ridiculous.

"And..."

He muttered: "If the earth is really a sphere, then why won't the other side fall off? The surface of the other side of the sphere is also covered with endless seawater..."

The more he pondered.

The more he found his knowledge was not enough.

Just the reason why it wouldn't fall off, he couldn't explain.

Don't know how much time passed.

Yan smiled bitterly and let out a long sigh: "Now I finally know the deity's mood when I requested to see the deity in the Divine Temple three years ago..."

Three years ago.

He boasted that he had read the Divine Book thoroughly and was incredibly learned.

Facing the deity's question.

He gave the ridiculous answer of a pentagon.

Thinking about it now, how ignorant he was back then!

No!

Even now, he is still ignorant!

The twenty-sixth year of the Great Yan Calendar.

Yan remade the world map according to the sailing route of the Explorer!

This world map...

Was no longer a huge flat scroll.

But a huge sphere!

The land where the Great Yan Kingdom is located is in the center of the world.

Surrounded by a vast and endless ocean.

After doing all this 0

Yan left the imperial palace.

Heading to the Divine Temple.

This time...

He didn't dare to enter the Divine Temple directly.

But knelt down devoutly outside the Divine Temple.

"Yan, pays respects to the deity."

At this time, he no longer had any pride, arrogance, or complacency.

Before the deity who knows everything...

The knowledge he mastered seemed incredibly small and ridiculous.
