After drawing the cards from the treasure box, the ghost ship continued to sail to Chakalo Port. Taking this opportunity, Bai Xiaowen gave an impassioned speech to the more than 3,000 people in the Freedom Corps.
The name of the Prophet Dio still has a very significant influence in the world of the Black Tide Plane. Many sailors have a sense of mission to defend their homeland more than military exploits. Stimulated by a series of honors such as titles and fiefs, many sailors have chosen to change careers and become under the command of the Prophet Dio. of a sailor.
Of course, there are many people who insist on their original ideas and leave, and Bai Xiaowen can't force them.
Unfortunately for him, "Painting of Leaf-covering Peonies" was still in a cool-down state and had no charm bonus, which resulted in the speech's agitating effect not being good enough.
During the voyage, Bai Xiaowen selected the free sailors who were willing to stay.
Those who are willing to stay have a strong will to fight, but for those who are too weak and affect the overall combat effectiveness, Bai Xiaowen cannot integrate them into the fighting team. Of course, he also has a place to go, and such a large ship must be There are fire-headed troops responsible for logistics...
A final count revealed that there were more than 1,600 people who were willing to be reorganized and obey the leadership of Bai Xiaowen, the prophet.
More than 100 old and weak people were selected as logistics troops, and the other 1,500 were confirmed as combat troops. After completing the formation, Bai Xiaowen looked at the team with obviously different spirits and sighed in his heart. This army is his. One of the assets of the world in the Kuroshio plane.
You must know that among the 1,500 people, more than 300 are high-level elite templates, and their attributes are quite good.
Of course, these high-level elites who are sailors are still weaker in terms of actual combat effectiveness, which is mainly reflected in their skills. Bai Xiaowen has seen that among the three valuable skill columns of high-level elite sailors, one of them is to increase the speed of physical recovery during sea voyages. of……
Bai Xiaowen couldn't help but think of Captain Julian. This guy is simply a disgrace to a senior leader. His attributes are balanced and featureless. Look at his four skills. In addition to Encouragement, which is a commanding skill, Multiple Sword Curtain is a relatively poor attack skill. Besides, the other two skills are not very good.
Although Star Guidance can relieve control and restore mental strength, the senior leader itself has resilience reduction, so this skill is somewhat repetitive. As for the passive function of identifying directions, it has no combat effectiveness at all.
Bai Xiaowen also learned about the fourth skill that he had not discovered before through information collection during the battle. Captain Julian's fourth skill column is actually a stealth skill "Hide". Stealth has a high priority in the static state. The visual range is within 0.3 meters. It can be said that as long as it is not hit head-on, it will not be discovered.
However, once you start moving, the invisibility effect will be greatly reduced, and the visual range is as high as 3 meters...
This skill is in line with the professional characteristics of "explorer", but it is useless for fighting.
Moreover, as non-professional soldiers, these sailors' combat specialties are not high, and they are basically two levels lower than their own level.
It's no wonder that Julian led a ship of sailors, but they were all captured by a snake-man ghost ship.
Bai Xiaowen decided to conduct training for the Free Corps next, including Julian, to practice their combat skills. He planned to ask Yahan to send one or two formal instructors from the army to help him train his troops to see if he could train these soft-legged crabs. It would be best to become stronger and relearn one or two skills.
This time in the Kuroshio plane, Bai Xiaowen also figured out how characters in the spirit world learn skills.
Characters in the spirit world do not learn skills by taking skill books, but spend a certain amount of time practicing. As for the length of practice, it is related to personal qualifications and understanding. When the skill bar is full, once a new skill is learned
, an original skill will be forgotten.
As for which skill to forget, it is determined by the subjective will of the character in the spirit world. If the character in the spirit world has no choice, he will automatically forget the skills that are least relevant to the newly learned skills, such as an elite mage who also knows the fireball spell.
Ice Arrow and Flame Storm occupy three skill slots. If he learns another Meteorite spell, he will forget about Ice Arrow, but not Fireball or Flame Storm, unless he chooses it.
This is also the reason why the skills of characters in the spirit world have a high degree of correlation.
During this sweep, the White Phoenix Team not only gained a lot of loot, but also the military strength under their control increased significantly. Unfortunately, the ghost ships in the three snake bases were nowhere to be seen, and no new ships were captured.
The giant ghost ship sailed all the way to Chakalo Port with two ghost ships.
The White Phoenix team met Yahan and other representatives of the coalition forces of various countries.
After learning that Bai Xiaowen took the opportunity to raid three snake bases, the top leaders of the coalition opened their mouths.
"In other words... we have won? There is no longer a snake base in the Bonus Sea area?" Quartermaster Felix said.
"This good news makes me feel a little unreal. We only fought one battle... In terms of intensity, it can only be regarded as a warm-up," the dwarf Panga Graybeard looked at Bai Xiaowen and said, "Well, this is indeed a good thing.
It seems that although the prophet is very young, he is not simple."
"I don't like a smart guy, unless he's on our side." Barbarian Barthaka muttered.
"Hahahaha..." Yahan smiled heartily, "This good news from Dio is really timely. Our mistakes in pursuit have finally been compensated to a certain extent..."
"Did the pursuit go wrong?" Bai Xiaowen asked subconsciously, thinking that no wonder the expressions on the faces of these coalition representatives were not right when they first came in...
Yahan nodded and said with a hint of apology: "Sorry, Dio, we wasted an excellent opportunity."
A bright light suddenly flashed in Bai Xiaowen's mind, and he said: "I understand, you must have met another snake priest, Olwen... Good guy, it turns out that this priest has always been nearby! He is Morken's hidden back-up.
.”
Bai Xiaowen came to this conclusion very simply. The snake-man priest Olwen did not stay at the base, so where were the elite tribes he led? The answer is obvious. Priest Olwen, like Morken, came to the island where the ghost ship was besieged.
The two priests who were nearby but had been lurking under the sea probably felt that they couldn't put all their chips on Bai Xiaowen from the beginning, so they helped each other covertly.
If it were Alwin and Morken who would assemble the largest military force as soon as they appeared on the scene, with dozens of leaders leading hundreds of elite snake warriors and halberd-wielding warriors, and thousands of slave warriors attacking in full force, Bai Xiaowen really couldn't delay that long and could only advance the attack.
