Under the stunned gaze of everyone, Su Lun took out a three-masted sailboat out of thin air.
Everyone no longer had to soak in the sea, and everyone got on the boat laughing and joking.
With the information Tani got from the fish, they scoured the nearby seawater and found a few more mechanical octopuses.
Including the previous ones, a total of forty-three were seized this time.
It can be said to be a great harvest.
Not to mention the cost of labor and technology, the cost of materials alone makes this mechanical octopus cost more than 100 million liso.
This wave of trophies directly saved Su Lun billions of costs, and also saved him a month or two of sleepless production time.
Moreover, now that the mechanical octopus army has become smaller in size, it truly has a group combat capability.
There are now forty-eight in total, and a few more can be produced with the materials in hand. When the time comes, Su Lun will be able to organize a fleet of ships like the guy before.
Dozens of these mechanical octopuses with powerful ship-breaking weapons are a nightmare for all battleships.
Su Lun also felt that the "Mechanical Puppet Army" line he had envisioned had finally begun to take shape.
Not to mention other mechanical monsters, it’s this mechanical octopus. If there are a thousand more, isn’t it like locusts crossing the border, gods blocking the way to kill gods, or demons coming to destroy demons?
Although mechanical products do not perform well in the field of high-end professionals, they can ultimately lead to qualitative changes through quantity.
If one thousand heads is not enough, then ten thousand heads
Su Lun feels that the future is promising...
As for how the 10,000 mechanical octopuses came to be, he also had an idea.
Apart from the loot, perhaps the biggest gain this time is the information.
He got relevant information about Duke Raphael's secret research base!
After hearing the news, Qianjiu and the others said they must do something if they find an opportunity. The people of Jiulington had been "miners" for several lifetimes, and they were somewhat resentful towards the mine owners.
Su Lun also thought it was feasible.
After all, they are pirates now!
What if there is a wave of robbery and the dream of the mechanical army comes true?
The Liming Group got a new ship, which happened to be less eye-catching.
Even if they meet the group of people who treated "Princess Frost Moon" again, they won't be recognized immediately.
The crew members were in high spirits and were busy salvaging things from the sunken ship. Then they helped paint and clean up the cabins. Several captains also arranged for the crew members to find their own cabins to prepare for the celebration party after the battle.
.
As the "New Dawn" sailed, they continued to search and rescue the crew members who had been lost in the storm at sea.
Of course, Su Lun didn't need to worry about those trivial things.
On the deck, he and Senjo were enjoying the sea breeze.
Beside, stood Lolotta holding a sword.
This little girl is now always with her teacher, comprehending the mysterious and mysterious sword intent of the "Sword Saint Realm".
Tani was also silent next to Su Lun, staring into the sea.
Blowing in the wind is one thing, but Su Lun wants to see if there are still a few "fish that slipped through the net" in the sea.
This is a pie-in-the-sky attack, the more the merrier.
After all, God knows how many forces Archduke Raphael has infiltrated.
The excitement on Tani's face didn't dissipate for a long time.
This new crew member of the Dawn Regiment seemed extremely serious and energetic. He looked at the sea, carefully perceived everything around him, and listened to the responses of the sea beasts.
This is the first time that Tani has taken on such an important responsibility on a large sea ship. He feels that he cannot live up to everyone's expectations and must be the chief navigator of the Dawn Regiment.
Su Lun looked at it with a hint of thought in his eyes.
Today we encountered two fierce battles in succession. Due to careful planning, the Dawn Regiment did not suffer much losses.
But the actual process also contains hidden dangers. If you make the slightest mistake, the team will be destroyed.
Moreover, this will happen more often in the future.
For the old men in the group, everyone knows this situation; but for a new crew member, there are some things that Su Lun feels should be explained.
The Dawn Group can come and go freely with almost no restrictions.
If I feel tired and don’t want to wander anymore, I will also give him a severance package.
But starting from the time when Qian Jiao led the group of old people from the "Cross Society", except for those who died in the battle, no one has left.
Looking at Tani's slightly immature face, Su Lun thought about it and took the initiative to speak: "Tani, I was only focused on fighting before, and I haven't asked your opinion yet. What do you think of our Dawn Group?"
?”
After all, they haven’t known each other for too long. Su Lun’s invitation to Tani this time was just for business.
He used the medicine that helped his mother to delay petrification as a condition to complete this escape plan.
Su Lun also saved him a lot of trouble because of this correct decision.
But from beginning to end, Tani was never asked if he really wanted to stay in this team for a long time.
After all, this person's identity has a somewhat special origin.
Tani listened to Su Lun's words, and panic appeared on his face for a moment. He thought he had done something wrong, and asked anxiously: "Mr. Su Lun, what do you mean by this? Did I do something wrong?"
In the past, when I followed other pirate groups, I was always ostracized and ignored by those harsh and mean pirates. Especially because of my special "cursed physique", I would always be disliked and cursed after encountering a storm at sea.
At this moment, he thought he had done something wrong.
After all, without the previous storm, the crew would not have fallen into the water.
Su Lun looked at the uneasy look on his face and explained with a smile: "What I mean is that our Dawn Group is not an ordinary pirate group. In the future, we may do many meaningful things, go on adventures in very dangerous places, and also
There will be many battles, just like today. The journey ahead will be full of dangers."
After saying this, he paused and then said: "Although our Dawn Group needs an excellent navigator like you very much, we still follow your opinions. This is not a transaction, we need a partner who can live and die together.
.”
"I do!"
Before he finished speaking, Tani nodded and answered without hesitation.
He spoke very quickly: "Mr. Su Lun, my dream is to become a navigator and adventurer! In the future, I will go on adventures in the sea and explore unknown waters. I will not be afraid of any dangers."
As he spoke, he seemed to feel that he was too excited and lacked confidence. He weakly added: "If possible, I, I, I, I, want to be everyone's partner."
Su Lun listened and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Yeah."
He didn't speak. Lolotta looked at Tani's cautious demeanor and patted him on the shoulder loudly, saying: "Hey, hey, our Mr. Navigator, you don't have to be so reserved. Mr. Su Lun."
In fact, you are very kind and easy to talk to. Also, we are not another dirty pirate group. Since we are partners, no one on the ship will bully you."
She herself came from the slave arena, so she didn't understand the kind of mentality of being bullied, ostracized, and very sensitive for a long time. She was afraid that she would do something wrong and lose the little bit of "happiness" she just had.
Listening to Lolota's words, Tani felt as if someone had revealed what he longed for most in his heart. He bit his lower lip and nodded seriously: "Yes."
Finally, the intention of the chief navigator of the Dawn Regiment was confirmed, and a big thing was settled.
There are some broken debris floating on the sea surface, and rescue is also proceeding in an orderly manner.
After saying this, Su Lun thought of something else and asked, "Tani, did your mother tell you who your father is?"
Hearing the sudden mention of a father he had never met, Tani's expression became very depressed: "No."
After thinking for a moment, he added: "My mother said that my father is a very powerful man. Only when I am strong enough can I know his name. Otherwise, it will bring me trouble."
""
After hearing this, Su Lun didn't know whether he should tell him his guess.
After all, the "Pirate King" Sam Bellamy was really one of the few people who stood at the pinnacle of that era.
It's better to be cautious when it comes to recognizing your father.
Otherwise, what if you guess wrong?
As soon as his thoughts changed, Su Lun just told the information he identified and said: "In the [cursed gold coin] in your hand, I felt a mysterious power connected to your blood. It will protect you,
To keep you away from bad luck. Maybe it was left by your father."
As Tani listened, a glimmer of hope flashed across her face.
But he thought of something else, took out his own gold coin and the other two given by Su Lun, and said: "My mother didn't say where the gold coins came from. But when I was very young, she told
After me, only those who are favored by fate can get these three cursed gold coins. She also said that if I meet someone who comes to me with the other two gold coins, that is, a trustworthy person, I can talk to him.
Let’s go on an adventure together!”
Su Lun smiled when he heard this and thought to himself: To get these two gold coins, you really need great luck.
At this moment, Tani suddenly thought of something. He rubbed the three gold coins in his palms and blew on them. What was incredible was that the three gold coins suddenly shone with a golden light under the sunlight.
Su Lun keenly captured this change and let out a light sigh.
Suddenly, an even more magical scene appeared.
Just like a rainbow appearing after a storm, an illusory sea map appeared before their eyes.
There is a scene of a blue sea on the sea map. When I look at it, the black spots the size of sesame seeds are actually islands. It seems that the sea is overlooked from a very high place. There are many detailed marks on the map.
There are named islands, as well as storm areas, dangerous sea areas, and Kraken-infested areas.
Many of them are "dead seas" that people have heard of and have never been set foot in.
"this"
Su Lun looked stunned.
Because at this moment, the names of these three cursed gold coins changed in his eyes, and turned into [Black Sam's World Map]!
[Black Sam's World Map]
Detailed explanation: An illusory map made of special memory materials; a sea chart drawn by the pirate king Sam Bellamy himself. He drew the footprints of his lifelong adventures in the sea on this chart; this is a very special thing.
Alchemy items can record coordinates, terrain, climate, wind direction, and ocean currents;
Su Lun looked at the changed three gold coins in front of him, and then realized what the pirate king had left behind.
Such a magical alchemical chart is definitely a nautical artifact!
It makes the map no longer limited to the outline of strokes on paper, but a real sea sand table with a bird's eye view of the real scene!
Tani obviously just tried it on a whim and had no idea that these three gold coins would have such a magical effect. He stammered: "I don't know why this happened."
But looking at the accurate and shocking real-life sea map, he also saw the value of this alchemy object, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Oh my God, there are so many places recorded on it, many of which have never been recorded on sea charts." Uncharted waters!”
There is no treasure that can make a navigator feel more excited than harvesting a map they didn't know about.
The coordinates marked on the chart cover almost the entire Luying Empire, the Marfa Empire, the Far North Icefield, the Four Kingdoms of Beizhou, the West Sea Islands, and all the territories known to mankind in the South China Sea.
"So this is what the world is like"
Su Lun's eyes were also extremely shocked.
He still remembered how shocked he was when he saw the world map for the first time in his previous life.
Just like now, he saw the "world map" of this world for the first time.
He thought the Hokkaido-Shikoku Islands were very big, but on this chart, they were just tiny sesame seeds.
The Arctic Icefield where the Silent Forest is located is the edge of the icefield on the map.
Even the three large islands in the Luying Empire are only the size of a fingernail.
There are too many place names marked on this chart, and there are many more areas that Su Lun has never heard of.
What is the secret of the Western Sea where Black Sam finally sank?
Further west, where?
Is there an end to the sea?
Where do the endless mountains to the east of the Marfa Empire lead?
How vast is the endless ice field of the North Sea?
Is this plane round, or does it extend infinitely?
Questions popped up one after another.
Su Lun didn't know how to describe his feelings, he was shocked in his heart.
When I saw this chart, an idea emerged in my heart uncontrollably.
The world is big and I want to see it.
He had an urge to take a boat to explore, unlock the secrets of those "fog areas" and mark them on this map.
It seems that in this way, you have really left your footprints in this world.
No matter how his life ends, it proves that he has been here before
Tani, a professional navigator, could obviously see the value of this map better, and he was beyond shocked.
Seeing Su Lun and Qian Jiao both looking at him, he explained: "I didn't know there was a sea map in this gold coin before. And then after I could continue to hear the sounds of sea beasts, I thought it was okay. Try it. Then, that’s it.”
"Um."
Su Lun had some guesses.
This seems to be a secret that can only be unlocked after awakening the talent?
He felt that it was probably the threshold set by Black Sam for his son. If he had not awakened the ability to "listen to the voice of sea beasts", this chart would not have been seen by Tani.
Because, it's very dangerous.
Now it seems that the pirate king seems to have left something to his children.
Thinking of this, some of Su Lun's worries dissipated a lot.
Even though he knew before that this was a sea map left by Pirate King Sam, the degree of danger was unknown, so he was very cautious.
After all, there are many malicious people, demons, and evil races in this world. Those guys will make some fake treasure maps, pointing to some dangerous sea areas, attracting sailors with the idea of adventure and treasure hunting to die.
But if Tani is there, this worry can be dispelled.
Tani added: "This gold coin records a sea map. I already know where it points. But it is a very dangerous sea area. In the west, there is a place with giant dragons."
Su Lun was not too surprised and nodded.
That sea area is temporarily incapable of being explored by the strength of the Dawn Regiment.
Su Lun stayed on the deck for most of the day, and the crew salvaged almost everyone, but no more mechanical octopuses were found.
He went to the cabin.
A large amount of loot was captured in this battle, and he needed to count it.
In addition to the more than forty mechanical octopuses, there are also those Marfa royal guards that were killed when intercepting the submarine.
Twenty or thirty storage rings, and two broken [lieutenant colonel level] mechanical battle armors.
Su Lun took inventory of those people's storage rings and found a large amount of ammunition, as well as replacement mechanical armor and equipment.
Mechanical armor is not. They can be equipped with different options according to different battle situations.
Such as heavy firearms, missile launchers
It has to be said that people from the royal family are extremely rich.
Although there was not much clutter in these storage rings, the neat rows of spare weapons and ammunition made Su Lun's eyes dazzle.
As far as the few submarine mechanical warriors killed, the value of individual soldier equipment is worth at least tens of millions, not to mention the priceless mechanical armor.
The equipment carried by these ten or twenty people may be worth the value of robbing dozens of pirate groups.
The mechanical equipment of the Royal Guard Corps are all the pinnacle products of Marfa's military prowess. They can be used. It is very difficult for Su Lun to analyze them now.
He didn't even bother.
Su Lun took out his experimental equipment and set up a temporary mechanical laboratory in the captain's cabin.
He wanted to focus on studying the mechanical octopus. This was the way to quickly develop combat effectiveness.
After the layout was completed, Su Lun sat on the workbench and carefully analyzed the drawings drawn previously.
He wants to perfect these mechanical octopuses.
The design concept of the mechanical octopus at this stage is actually very perfect. It has a super strong metal body, and it has strong defense against both objects and monsters; it also has invigorating alloys and special runes, and the impact of mental power or other mysterious means will be very small.
;The sports control system and kinetic energy system are almost impeccable.
This is definitely the result of many years of research and experimentation by a large team.
If you haven't encountered a professional like Su Lun who can directly "physically control" with spiritual threads. Under normal circumstances, a fourth-level or fifth-level professional would have to kill a mechanical octopus for a long time. Or there might be thousands of them.
That would have the strength to cut off the metal tentacles directly. Otherwise, a cluster of forty or fifty heads would be enough to make a sixth-level professional retreat three points.
Although Su Lun thought that no one would have the physical [spiritual tentacles] like him, the extraordinary powers in this world were full of strange things.
Small workshops have the advantage of being able to use very cutting-edge materials on certain materials.
He plans to strengthen these mechanical octopuses with runes in his area of expertise, as well as directly control mystical abilities.
After clarifying his thoughts, he also got busy.
In this way, Su Lun stayed in the cabin for several days.
On this day, while Su Lun was studying the mechanical octopus, he suddenly saw the two severed mechanical armors confiscated in the laboratory.
This is just a [lieutenant colonel level] mechanical battle armor, not too high-end.
And there were only two of them, so Su Lun didn’t originally plan to dismantle them first.
But an idea came to his mind. There was a mechanical octopus underwater, but what about on land?
A mechanical armor equipped with various equipment is perfect.
But a thought also came to his mind. If he encountered it next time, would this be the only way to cut the black sickle into two pieces, and then use his luck to pick up some tatters?
Without a complete mechanical armor, even if it is repaired, there will be huge problems.
Su Lun was still working on the mechanical octopus in his hands, but the thoughts in his mind became more active.
The previous [Colonel Level Ship-Severing IX-shaped Mechanical War Armor] directly shot the operator in the mecha because of a special forbidden object like the [Bow of Time].
He doesn't have that kind of thing.
There is actually a [Rune Man Leather Black Umbrella] in his hand.
However, the conditions for using this black umbrella are very harsh, and it can almost only be used one-on-one. Moreover, against high-level armor, the opponent can still escape.
What should I do if I encounter a group of mechanical warriors again?
Moreover, the people of the Marfa Empire have always had the habit of destroying technology.
As soon as Su Lun's thoughts wandered away, he suddenly felt a pain in his balls.
Now we know that there is a high probability of a "Secret Mechanical Research Institute" next to "Princess Frost Moon", and the location of one of the submarines has also been marked.
The problem also arises.
The next time we encounter one, even if the interception is successful, what if the other party directly activates the self-destruct program?
After a confrontation, Su Lun was quite sure that he would be able to scatter and cannibalize the opponent, but he had absolutely no way to deal with this self-destruction.
He really had to work hard and pick up a pile of scrap metal, which was definitely not what he expected.
But neither he nor Chijou, Dr. Banks, or anyone in the Dawn Regiment had the means to kill people through mechas.
Once the domineering spirit is revealed, will the other party be willing to surrender?
how could it be possible
"Is there any way to seize the submarine intact? There is no special curse, it can only be a mysterious method. Put a virus? Dr. Banks has that ability, but how to put it in is also a big problem. Or it is mental
As a warlock, I'm still far from my current level."
The more Su Lun thought about it, the more he frowned.
He thought about everything and his abilities, and even the people he knew.
There isn't any suitable method.
Even if Mr. Mirror comes, it seems that he can't solve this problem.
Su Lun felt that her balls hurt slightly.
It feels like the gold mine is right in front of you, but without the tools to smelt gold, is it possible that you have to rely on luck to pick up nugget gold?
"Huh!"
Suddenly, Su Lun thought of something, and his expression suddenly became stern.
If it was mental control, Su Lun couldn't do it himself, but he knew someone who was many times stronger than himself.
"Pandora's charm ability is very strong. Isn't this the top level of mental control?"
Su Lun then remembered the alchemy android who had been locked up in the "Little Void World" for a long time.
