ps: The left and right bow skills in the previous chapter have not been mentioned before, but I think everyone should be able to understand the meaning of the skill by seeing the name, right? This is of course a skill that involves holding one person on each side and constantly opening the bow and shooting. The specific content is up to you.
Just make up your mind. After all, river crabs are important.
…………
After a long journey, Lao Bai returned to the port of Alexandria in Egypt.
Although he took Cecilia home for a visit, the task was too difficult, so Lao Bai had to come back and work on other things first. The most important thing at the moment is the world competition of the Single Boat Challenge, but now there is still a battle for the top spot in each district.
It’s not over yet, and the world competition naturally hasn’t started yet. Lao Bai, who has already won the seed position and qualified for the qualifying round, just spends a lot of time training.
Of course, besides training, Lao Bai still has to do some tasks. The most important task at the moment is another S+ mission in Lao Bai's territory to eliminate the sea monster. Although Lao Bai has been awarded the title of lord by the King of Egypt, he actually cannot
When building a territory, the options in the system menu are all black and cannot be clicked. His territory will not truly belong to him until the sea monster is eliminated.
Lao Bai knows that when building a city, there will be a task of destroying monsters. Although it is difficult, it is not impossible. In his previous life, Lao Bai has seen many similar videos. Now that he has eight people in his team, he feels that he can complete this task.
.
As soon as he returned to Alexandria, Lao Bai went to the shipyard and bought a boat. Ordinary small boats in the game can be operated by ten people, but special models operated by eight people are not unsold, but only large shipyards can
For sale. As the largest seaport in Africa at the beginning, Alexandria Shipyard is naturally a big factory. It happens to sell the smallest small dhow.
Even this smallest small dhow, there are three different types to choose from. The first one is commercial, with four cabins, but the speed is very slow. The second one is for speed, but does not carry enough cargo.
There are fewer. The third type pursues firepower, and there are many turrets on the ship.
Lao Bai often does business in Alexandria and Cairo. The owner of the shipyard in Alexandria is an old acquaintance of Lao Bai. Coupled with Lao Bai's 20-year-old charm, he quickly bought Lao Bai at the best price.
Bai is a small dhow. What Lao Bai bought is a speed dhow. Even though it is a speed type, it is still a little slower than the Swordfish.
The price of the boat was 180,000 yuan. In fact, the boat itself was only worth 30,000 yuan after the boss's discount. The remaining 150,000 yuan was the price of a cannon - a medium-sized artillery piece. Lao Bai asked the shipyard boss to install one for his boat.
Medium artillery.
Lao Bai couldn't bear the name of the ship, so he just called it the Spinnaker. With the new ship, there was no need to keep the Swordfish. At this point, the Swordfish, which had followed Lao Bai for his remaining years, bid farewell to the stage of history and was replaced by
The new ship doesn't seem to be as good as the Swordfish. Not to mention the speed is slower than the Swordfish. Since the wood grade is third grade, its durability is not as high as the Swordfish. But this is already the best one picked by Lao Bai.
There is one. The shipyard does not use good wood to make boats, because it is a bit wasteful. Boats made of third-grade wood are very rare. Ordinary boats are made of fifth- or sixth-grade wood, and their durability is only 500600.
But the advantage of this ship over the Swordfish is the gun turret. Its hull is wider, and it can mount one gun on each side of the ship. This means that Lao Bai can finally install cannon on his ship. Lao Bai
Bai was equipped with the ship's own small cannon on the left and right sides, but he replaced the ship's stern with a medium-sized cannon.
The job arrangement of the new ship is the same as that of the Swordfish. It’s just that Elena is the gunner. Elena’s gunner level is level one. It turns out that she was one of the many gunners on the Murad battleship. And Bian
Kaze was not assigned any position by Lao Bai. After all, it was difficult for him to stand. Occasionally doing measuring work for Sera was enough.
Bought a new boat. Lao Bai then took the crew to practice on the Mediterranean for a period of time. The new boat's shape was different from that of the Swordfish. Whether it was sailing or steering, they needed to adapt to this change in a short period of time before they could use the new boat.
The boat maneuvers as smoothly as the Swordfish.
Lao Bai has now reached the second level of the combat slave master. His basic attack, defense, initiative, skill check and attribute check have all received a level bonus of one point, and his health has also increased by five points. If he goes back to find a trainer
.Then you can also learn some second-level skills.
Fatima and Lao Bai were upgraded almost at the same time and became a second-level dancer. She no longer had to find a trainer and had several more skills. Sera was not far from a second-level saint, De
Niya is also a little short of a level 3 guardian swordsman in terms of experience, and Amina is far behind from level 3 maid to level 4. The remaining two new members are level 1 physician Bianca and level 3 dark warlock Ai.
Lena is far away from leveling up.
After practicing for a long time, Lao Bai felt that everyone was completely adapted to the new ship, so he directed everyone to drive the ship in the direction of Dumyat. He wanted to go to his territory to take a look.
Although Lao Bai's territory is still just a tidal flat, it has been designated as the city of Serra. The ship sailed eastward along the southern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, heading towards the city of Serra. As it got closer and closer to its destination, Lao Bai suddenly felt that this
The location of the city seems a bit familiar.
Lao Bai didn't pay much attention to the location of this area last time because they walked along the shore. Moreover, players are lucky to have a city. Who would go and care too much about where the city is. Then again,
In the same area, seaside ports are not much different. The key depends on how you operate them. Egypt only has some cotton, wheat, rice... and other specialties, and Lao Bai does not expect to be able to dig out oil in the territory.
But the further the boat sailed, the more Lao Bai felt there was something wrong with this location...
He quickly took out a chart of the Egyptian region and compared it with the chart to confirm the location of the coastline in front of him. Until he saw the tents of the Serra people, he finally confirmed his suspicion. He couldn't help but scream.
"Your sister! It turns out this is Port Said!"
Seeing Lao Bai's sudden excitement, Sera immediately went over and asked, "What's wrong, Master?"
Lao Bai hugged her and spun her around for several times before stopping and saying, "Sela, your people are really good at choosing places. This is Port Said!"
Sera said blankly: "Master, where is Port Said?"
Lao Bai put her down and explained softly: "Port Said is a city in our world, and it is in the same place as our current Serra City."
Sierra still didn't understand, and then asked: "What's the matter?"
Lao Bai said: "Nothing. This is a very critical place."
Sierra glanced at the deserted land on the shore, and then asked Lao Bai: "What's the key here? Is it an ordinary seaside?"
Lao Bai shook his head and said: "No, there are probably not many cities in the game that are more important than this."
Lao Bai is now smiling from ear to ear.
In the real world, Port Said is the second largest seaport in Egypt, second only to Alexandria. However, it has always been a small fishing village in history. It was not until 1859 that a city was built with the digging of the Suez Canal. This city
It was named after Said Pasha, the governor who was stationed at that time.
Port Said is the northern end of the Suez Canal in the real world!
Lao Bai took out a map of Egypt and showed it to Serra. He drew a line on the map with his hand and asked Serra: "What would happen if there was a river here?"
Sera looked at it and said, "Then you can go directly to the Red Sea from here?"
Lao Bai smiled and said: "Yes, that's right. I think there will be a river here in the future."
As we all know, there are two man-made waterways with the most strategic significance in the world, one is the Suez Canal and the other is the Panama Canal.
How important is the Suez Canal? According to statistics, about 18,000 ships from more than 100 countries and regions in the world pass through the canal every year. 70% of the oil exported from the Middle East to Western Europe is transported through the Suez Canal. The number of goods transported through the Suez Canal every year
It accounts for 14% of the world’s maritime trade!
How profitable is the Suez Canal? This river is now the "lifeline" and "money tree" of Egypt's economy. Toll fees for passing ships have become Egypt's four pillars of foreign exchange earnings along with remittances, tourism, and oil over the years. Now the canal is used every day for
The Egyptian government received US$2 million in foreign exchange. Ships passing through the canal paid tolls based on tonnage, as well as water diversion fees and navigation marks. In 1993, the canal's revenue reached US$1.9 billion, and in 1994, revenue exceeded US$2 billion...
If the Suez Canal in the game could be opened, even if it was far inferior to the canals in the real world, Lao Bai would still have endless money to spend just by setting up a card on the river to collect tolls! This is a veritable golden waterway!
Lao Bai knew that in his previous life, countless people had been eyeing these two golden waterways. Until he crossed, the Panama Canal had not yet been opened, but the Suez Canal had been.
The two unexcavated golden waterways in the game both have a city at one end and no city at the other end. Like the Suez Canal, there is Suez City at one end and no city at the other end. The same goes for the Panama Canal. It is said that how to get through the city at the other end
The construction of the city was the key point for the opening of the canal.
Port Said in the previous life was built by NPCs and did not belong to the players. Only now did Lao Bai know that the key figure in the construction conditions of this port turned out to be Serra!
"Sela, you are so amazing!" Lao Bai picked up Sierra and kissed her again and again.
Sera said blankly: "Master, I didn't do anything?"
Lao Bai said: "No, with you, I am simply the happiest person in the world."
After mooring the boat at the beach, Lao Bai and the others walked to where the Serra people were.
When Xie Wud and others saw Lao Bai coming back, they all came over to greet him and asked, "Chief, what's going on with the king?"
Lao Bai waved his hand to everyone and said: "The king has sealed this land to me. As long as we eliminate the sea monsters, we can live here with peace of mind. I am determined to build a city here with everyone!"
He glanced at Serra and continued: "I have decided on a name for this city. It will be called Serra City!"
Everyone cheered together: "Long live the leader! We really did not choose the wrong leader!"
Another group of people said: "The leader wants to build a city. We should no longer call him the leader. Let's call him the city lord!"
Everyone cheered in unison again: "City Lord! City Lord! City Lord!"
Lao Bai smiled and nodded. He was very lucky to be the city lord. If the Suez Canal could be opened, then he, the city lord of Serra City, would really be the lucky one among the lucky ones. Serra City was really his lucky star since his rebirth.
At this time, Xie Wud walked up to Lao Bai and said, "Congratulations to the leader for becoming the city lord. But if we want to build a city, we must eliminate the sea monster."
Lao Bai nodded and said: "I am here this time to destroy the sea monster. Don't worry, everyone, leave all the sea monster matters to me!"
Shaewud frowned and said, "Do you need your help?"
Lao Bai smiled and said, "I won't bother you all." (To be continued...)
