Chapter seven hundred and eighty seventh first voyage
The 40 high-level warships, 150 mid-level warships and 3 transport ships in the shipyard were all dispatched. The low-level warships cannot sail on long seas, so they are carried by high-level warships and mid-level warships and are basically fully used. .
The strategic weapons on these warships are all temporarily borrowed by the Wushuang Guild. Each high-level warship is equipped with intermediate energy cannons, low-level energy cannons, and a large number of ballistae.
Advanced energy cannons were too expensive and rare, so Shen Fan didn't use them.
The Wushuang Guild dispatched nearly 45,000 people because Shen Fan also included the Shenyin Skyship in this navigation operation, but he did not let the Shenyin Skyship take to the sky. Instead, it sailed in the sea like an ordinary warship.
At eleven o'clock, this fleet left the harbor in a mighty manner and sailed into the sea. Fleets of this size are not uncommon in major coastal cities, but most of them are NPC fleets. Player ships This is the first time we have seen the team.
Players in Wangfeng City who were doing missions on the beach and doing missions naturally discovered this fleet, and found that the people on board were all players, not NPCs, which made the players exclaim.
"They are all players! How is it possible? How can there be players with such a large fleet at this stage!"
"More than two hundred warships! I'm going!"
"It's the Wushuang Guild and the Divine Phoenix Guild. They have built a huge shipyard in the city's northern harbor. I didn't expect them to build so many warships!"
"I know that shipyard. When Qianfan got a series of warship blueprints, people from the major guilds came to look for Qianfan. Finally, Wushuang Guild, Underworld, Group Nine, Divine Phoenix Guild, God of War Pavilion, and Immortal Palace , did the seven guilds of Ice Palace jointly build that shipyard?"
"It turns out that seven guilds have been united, and they are the top seven guilds in China. Evenly divided, these warships are not many!"
"Not much? Haha, tell me, is there any guild that can build its own warships?"
"The big guilds with their headquarters in coastal areas have basically not started to focus on this aspect. Some guilds own some fishing boats. If you are lucky, you may get some small warships."
"These two hundred or so warships are all mid- to high-level. You see, the low-level warships are attached to both sides of these ships. The large ships in the middle should be transport ships."
"Brother, what an insight!"
"Haha, I have been exposed to information about shipbuilders, so I know more about it."
"Brother! What level is the giant warship headed by it?"
"I don't know, it should be a king-class warship. This kind of warship should be the most advanced warship. Look at the weapons on the ship!"
"This warship looks a bit familiar. Isn't this the one that appeared some time ago?! I thought it belonged to an NPC..."
On the beach, a large group of players were discussing, and the news spread quickly. The players were shocked that the alliance of seven guilds, including Wushuang Guild, God of War Pavilion, and Underworld, actually had such a large fleet.
In addition, all the major guilds are very curious about what Shen Fan and the others want to do this time.
After the major guilds learned the news, they all sent troops to Wangfeng City, rented ships, and followed the fleet led by Shen Fan from a distance.
However, this situation only lasted for less than an hour and then stopped. Shen Fan and his fleet moved forward at full speed and soon entered the deep sea and dangerous waters.
Most of the ships following behind were fishing boats or low-level warships. Their sailing speed could not keep up with Shen Fan and the others. The most important thing was that they were unable to sail on long seas at all.
Such a huge fleet also completely stimulated the senior leaders of the major guilds, and they asked people in their respective guilds to investigate information related to the warships, but they were soon disappointed.
When Shen Fan, Shenhuang, Ares and others formed an alliance, members of the seven guilds were all distributed in all major cities in China, and all information related to warships was harvested by the people of the seven guilds.
Therefore, at this time, when people from major guilds want to look for shipbuilders, warship blueprints, shipbuilding props and other related things, they basically cannot find them.
At the same time, many guilds regretted their refusal to cooperate with Shen Fan, otherwise they would have had their own share of today's large fleet.
"Qianfan and the others have already set their sights on the sea! No, we have to speed up the development in this area..."
The resources in the sea are much richer than those on land. The resources on land are basically exploited, but the resources in the sea are not!
Shen Fan and his party, who had already gone deep into the sea, did not know the impact of their painful navigation. On the Shenyin Skyship, Shen Fan took the Poseidon Compass and the distribution map of the Storm Spirit Wood and led everyone to open up a safe navigation route. .
"The front is 0° south. There are active volcanoes on the seabed. They are very unstable and belong to a dangerous zone. Notify other fleets and let them sail north." Shen Fan said while looking at the Poseidon Compass.
The Poseidon Compass, as a god-level prop for navigation, is very useful. Activating the Poseidon Compass can detect the surrounding situation. If there is a danger that threatens the warship, a warning will be issued. It can also project a radius of five hundred miles. specific situation.
Sailing for hundreds of kilometers, Shen Fan did not encounter any danger during the whole journey. Shen Fan relied on the Poseidon Compass to easily lead the fleet to avoid all dangerous areas and monster groups in the sea.
"Record that there are several islands in the volcano group in the northwest direction. There are a large number of sea eagle beasts living there. They are extremely dangerous. These are all marked." Shen Fan reminded.
Wangfeng City is located at the southernmost point of China's coast. The islands recorded on the Storm Spirit Pattern Wood map are basically distributed in a large area of sea in the southeast of the East Sky Territory. There are also a large number of islands in the northern sea area of the South Heaven Territory that have Storm Spirit Pattern Wood.
Shen Fan and the others' destination this time was the large sea area to the north of the coastal city of Nantian Territory. It took them nearly 11 hours of sailing to get there. Of course, it was mainly because Shen Fan wanted to create a safe navigation route that he spent so much money. Much time.
"Brother Fan, even if this thing sails on the sea, it is very expensive and has already consumed 64% of the energy!" the prince said with a wry smile.
After hearing this, Shen Fan clicked on the status information of the Shenyin Skyship.
——Ordinary strategic weapons: 100 high-level energy cannons, 00 high-level crossbows.
(Note: The battleship cannot sail if its energy is lower than 5%. 100% of the battleship's energy can sustain the Shenyin Skyship's continuous sailing for 6 hours, and the protective layer can be fully opened for 6 hours of continuous sailing.)
"It's a bit of a trap!" Shen Fan was a little helpless when he saw this. Warship driving consumes energy crystals or crystal cores, and the Shenyin Skyship consumes energy crystals of level seven or above!
Sailing at sea consumes much less energy than flying in the sky. Now sailing for more than ten hours still consumes 64% of the energy. Instead of crystals, there are 64 seventh-level energy crystals, which is close to 450,000 gold coins! ( To be continued)
