The sky is as blue as the sea, the sea breeze is gentle, and the sun shines on the sea, making the waves sparkle.
The Golden Chin and Snake Lady were moored at the pier. The young knight led everyone to slowly step down the wooden steps. A receptionist had been waiting on the pier for a long time and immediately came up to greet them.
"Captain Longfu, all heroes of the sea, please come this way." The receptionist bowed slightly, his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing.
Since Crescent Town has been selected as the port for the secret mission, the dock has already been controlled by the empire. At this moment, in addition to the personnel from the empire, there are only the knight boy and others on the dock.
The knight boy walked in the front, followed closely by Zong Ge and 006, who were aliased as Lion Flag, and then followed by the sea snake girl with a golden chin.
The latter three glanced around, all showing vigilance.
Although they accepted the empire's secret espionage mission, this was the first time they came to the empire's secret port. Naturally, they were a little nervous. After all, they could sail freely at sea, but when they landed at the port, they could easily be ambushed.
Compared with them, the young knight's eyes were calm, and Zong Ge looked around majestically, showing the bold demeanor of a master of arts.
The receptionist accompanied the young knight, with blazing eyes, taking in everyone's expressions.
"It seems that the information about the dragon suit is true. He should be an imperial knight. He and his companions have a natural sense of trust in the empire."
"As for the other three, they are indeed pirates who are used to going wild on the sea."
The receptionist ushered them into the dock.
This shipyard is not comparable to the small shipyard where Cang Xu investigated the cultists. It is huge in scale and has all the facilities inside, as well as alchemy tools. This means that the people who built the ship are at least Black Iron-level transcendents, because
Ordinary people cannot control alchemical items.
"If this shipyard is fully engaged in manufacturing, at least two black iron-level magic ships will be launched every year. In one and a half years, a bronze-level magic ship can be produced. If it is an ordinary warship, then
That’s more.”
"Of course, the shipyard in Crescent Harbor is not responsible for building ships. It is mainly responsible for repairing and improving the performance of ships for you sirs."
"There are ports similar to Crescent Port and shipyards like this. The empire has already deployed more than thirty of them, distributed in the Shengming Continent and the islands at sea. There will be more in the future."
The receptionist spoke proudly. He was already at the Bronze level, and his words revealed the empire's strong strength.
The dock was not empty, there was a ship inside.
This is a three-masted sailing ship with a very wide hull and a forecastle and poop that cantilever out from both ends of the ship.
The hull is 80 meters long, 36 meters wide, and 15 meters high. There are three decks in total, with 24 gun positions, and the crew can carry about 500 people. This is of course not a full load figure, but takes into account food consumption and voyage history.
And other factors.
This ship is larger than the Pig Kiss. The Pig Kiss is 76 meters long. It is a commercial trading ship that can sail across the ocean. Before it traveled between two continents, it was already close to the top floor.
In fact, the two cannot be compared simply.
Because the Pig Kiss is for commercial use, and this large sailing ship is a battleship!
With just one round of bombardment, the Pig Kiss might be sunk. The escape ships built by everyone on the Mysterious Island are even more incomparable.
When the knight boy and others saw the ship, they were not surprised.
In fact, this was one of the purposes of his trip.
They defeated most of the ships of the Meuzou Pirates, which was very effective. Although they were frustrated in the confrontation with Meuzou and retreated, the Knight Boys and the group have already demonstrated their potential and value.
The empire has decided to increase its support, and this ship is proof of the empire's sincerity and a special request made by the knight boy.
He needs a ship as his own ship.
It is true that he owns the Deep Sea Monster Fish, but since this ship is from a war monger, it is best not to expose it. On the one hand, it can reduce the possibility of leaks, and on the other hand, it can be used as a surprise weapon and a trump card.
As a leader, the young man certainly hopes to have as many such trump cards as possible.
So until now, the gray-haired, golden-chinned, sea snake girl and others don't know about the existence of the Strange Fish.
"Let's take a look at the ship first." The young knight suggested.
The receptionist suddenly laughed: "This way, please."
He led everyone aboard the boat to look around.
The warship has complete facilities, including a survey room with charts and a navigation sextant, a sailor's cabin with single beds and double beds, a kitchen specially used for cooking, and a spacious dining room next to the kitchen.
.
Because it is a battleship, there are very few cargo compartments, but the ammunition compartment and food storage compartment are very large.
There is a medical room and a carpentry maintenance room.
There is a kinetic energy cabin equipped with a magic energy furnace, which is the heart of the warship. This means that even if there is no wind, the warship can still use magic energy to move forward quickly.
In addition, there is an alchemy room, a meditation room, a fighting training room, and even a prayer room.
Generally speaking, there are no prayer rooms on pirate ships. They are found only on national warships because they are prepared for priests and priests.
The captain's cabin is on the poop, with the best view and the widest space. The wide brown-red rudder, the mast that still smells of paint, and the white sail surface all show that this new ship has just been launched and is in its peak condition.
The entire ship is made of fine oak, but there is also a layer of metallic luster on the surface of the hull. This is a metal coating. The alchemy technology that has only appeared in the last hundred years can greatly improve the toughness of the target. This is not
Warmonger's technology, Warmonger is better at life alchemy and manufacturing arms. The concept of alchemy is actually very broad, and there are many fields if it is subdivided. Warmonger is indeed the master of alchemy, but he is not the only master of alchemy.
Finally, everyone visited the gun emplacement. The cables of the gun doors were all made of fine iron, but there was nothing on the gun emplacement.
The visit is over.
Zong Ge was secretly happy. Although he was good at land warfare, he had a good eye and could see the quality of this warship.
He was dressed in gray and had a dejected look on his face. The brand-new warship in front of him reminded him of his own Squirrel.
The young knight was both satisfied and dissatisfied.
He was satisfied that this warship was just as powerful as what he had requested. It was a black iron-class mana ship.
What I am dissatisfied with is that this warship is not complete. The most obvious thing is that it is not equipped with any cannon. Even the sails only have one set on the main mast. In addition, food, water, and wine are provided. , ordinary sailors’ sleeping bags, etc. all need to be replenished by him.
After leaving the warship, everyone returned to the dock.
The receptionist prepared tea and breakfast in the workroom. While entertaining everyone, he handed the magic contract into the hands of the young knight.
This is the boy's first supply, which is of great significance.
The content of a magic contract is a contract, which stipulates the cooperative relationship between the two parties, as well as their obligations to each other, including the consequences of breach of contract, etc.
After the young man checked it, he gave the contract to others to read.
After reading it once, the young man nodded and said to the receptionist: "There is no problem with the contract."
"Captain Dragon Service, all heroes, please wait a moment before signing this contract. I need to verify the situation with the relevant personnel." The receptionist smiled gently.
The young captain nodded, and 006 was able to communicate with the receptionist.
The receptionist must confirm the status of 006, whether he has been kidnapped and threatened, etc., and whether there is any hidden information that is not convenient to report beforehand?
The young man was not worried about this.
006 was unaware of the existence of the Deep Sea Monster Fish and Cang Xu and others.
After the experience on the Mysterious Island, the boy became more prudent and cautious in his actions. No matter whether he was fighting against Golden Chin, Sea Snake Girl, or fighting with Rouzo, he always hid the Strange Fish.
Sure enough, under the magic instrument, the receptionist confirmed that 006 has perfect and free will.
"I'm sorry to keep you all waiting." In fact, the wait didn't take long, but the receptionist's attitude was really good. "There is one last thing that needs to be confirmed. It's about the divine finger bone in the intelligence. I can personally identify it. For a moment?”
The young man nodded, turned his head slightly, and pointed his eyes at the gray man.
Dressed in gray, he loosened the collar of his clothes, took out the necklace, took it off in public, and put it in the hands of the receptionist.
The receptionist was very well prepared, or the empire was well prepared. He took out the appraisal scroll, and soon the scroll flashed with a brilliance like platinum.
This appraisal scroll has high specifications and is of great value. The appraisal was successful in one go.
But the receptionist did not stop, and then used another appraisal scroll of the same specification to confirm the previous appraisal results.
The receptionist held the white phalanges in his hand and marveled: "To a certain extent, it is already a semi-artifact! The phalanges of the fourth generation pirate king, I have to say, you are really lucky. It will It’s of great use.”
The knight boy said oh and asked deliberately: "Can you tell me in detail?"
"Of course." The receptionist nodded, "So far, there have been six generations of pirate kings. The first three generations were all barbarians. That was the era of pirates. Their existence gave all nobles headaches and even fear. Today's scholars will
It’s called the Age of Savage Dragons.”
"The Age of the Barbarian Dragon came to an end due to the breakdown of the alliance between the Barbarians and the Dragon Clan. Piracy activities were jointly suppressed by nobles from all continents. It was not until hundreds of years later that it rose again, and the Pirate Throne was once again created."
"The fourth generation Pirate King was born, but he is not a barbarian, but a goblin thief."
"He relied on his seemingly innate talent for treachery and just the right amount of luck to occupy the Pirate Throne in advance. However, his physical strength was very low, only at the gold level. Therefore, he was later plotted by other beings and lost his life."
"However, how can a goblin who can steal the Pirate Throne be ordinary? He is by no means an ordinary gold thief, he has divinity in himself!"
"His bloodline is very high-end, a bloodline at the level of a god. As he grows, he gradually condenses the godly nature of greed. Any behavior that satisfies his greed can fuel this godly nature. And the growth of his divine nature will also
It will make him more greedy. The reason why he can take huge risks and occupy the pirate throne is because he is greedy."
"After his death, his greedy divinity was deposited in the bones of his body. As trophies, his bones were divided in the following years and scattered to all corners of the world."
"Under normal circumstances, as long as intelligent life obtains these bone fragments, the greedy divinity inside will take effect. These bone fragments will point to the location of what the user wants most deep in his heart."
"No wonder a name covered in gray can break through to the top of the Holy Monument. Of course, he is no longer."
