Online Game: Island War

Chapter 230: shuttle boat

In fact, so far, Huanghuang Island has only forged 3 pieces of epic equipment, and one piece of epic equipment is produced in one month. That is the limit, and Edgar has to vomit blood.

Of course, even if you don't count Edgar and Thuringia, who are still expanding their underground living space, Ironforge still has two great forging masters.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

It's just that they have just crossed the level of a great master. In order not to waste materials, Edgar has been pressing them to ponder carefully and cannot directly open the furnace.

After such a long time, these two have learned a lot. It is estimated that soon, Edgar will let go of the restrictions and allow them to do it.

In addition, there are also two great masters among the mountain dwarves in the roots of Thuringia. It can be said that the production of epic equipment on Huanghuang Island is indeed promising.

This is also the reason why Lei Jiu attaches so much importance to mountain dwarves.

This family has too high a natural bonus in forging. Even the great masters who have the chance to forge legendary equipment have such a high proportion.

Before landing on Chiwa Island, he found that after the player's island owner was killed, all the prehistoric races in the Chiwa island chain disappeared, which disappointed Lei Jiu, who was interested in looking for mountain dwarves.

In view of this, Lei Jiu has a guess that these prehistoric races in the three-layer island chain are likely to be the novice benefits that the system specially distributes to island owners.

As for what race you get and how much you can keep, it depends on the player's luck and strength.

On the outer islands outside the island chain, there should be very few traces of the prehistoric family.

Of course, this is just his conjecture. Whether or not this is the case remains to be verified by himself.

If this is the case, it is impossible to say, even in order to improve the military equipment, he has to find the bad luck of other players.

......

"Master Island Master!"

"What's up?"

"Report from the dock, the new ship can be launched!"

"Oh?" Lei Jiu raised his head, it was getting late, "Got it! Just let me know, I'll be there tomorrow morning!"

"Yes!"

On the dock side, there are two types of boats currently under construction. One is a large wooden boat, and the interior is designed and built with the power of a giant flying barracuda.

The other is a large wooden ship with iron cladding on the surface. It is designed to be powered by a spar furnace engine that has not yet left the laboratory, and is driven by a huge iron wheel.

Of course, the one that is launched now cannot be a ship that has not even got the power plant.

Although spar-powered ships should be the mainstream of future sea exchanges and expeditions, it does not mean that biodynamics has no value at all.

If it wasn't for the 1-day research card, Lei Jiu would have to wait 30 years before he could start the research and application of spar power.

Before that, if you wanted to get rid of the paddle power with average efficiency and speed, using marine life as the power was the only choice for most players.

The giant barracuda is just one option. The ocean is magnificent and vast, and all kinds of creatures may exist.

After the players begin to contact the marine race, those marine creatures that can pull the boat and sail will come into their sight.

In terms of speed, giant barracudas are not inferior to any marine creatures. If combined with the load capacity, their comprehensive evaluation is still among the best, which Lei Jiu is confident.

The only disadvantage of giant squid is that the meat is delicious and tastes good, resulting in a very high price. The average player is simply reluctant to spend such a large amount of money to buy them to pull the boat. First release https://https://

Therefore, Lei Jiu had to keep looking for opportunities if he didn't want these fish to lose money in the future.

Right now, when the spar engine has not yet come out and the ship has to continue to lie down in the dock, he has to use the barracuda-powered wooden boat.

Compared with the strenuous and slow speed of the paddle boat, the shuttle boat, short for the barracuda-powered wooden boat, is much more efficient.

Because there is no need to place the bottom compartment of the row oar like the oar power, nor the mast sail of the sail power, the height of the boat is greatly reduced, and the overall weight is greatly reduced.

With the strength of a giant barracuda, even pulling up a boat can run fast, even at 30 kilometers per hour.

Converted into nautical miles, the speed is about 17 knots.

Like the island where Hanbao, the bear of the earth, was located before, it can be reached in four or five hours, which greatly reduces the time wasted at sea.

The next morning, Lei Jiu rushed to the dock to participate in the launching ceremony of the shuttle boat.

The ceremony was relatively simple. As the island owner, Lei Jiu went up to say a few words, and praised all the people up and down the dock, thanking them for their hard work.

After that, after the big ship was launched and stabilized, Lei Jiu boarded the ship and made two laps at sea to experience the speed.

As for the result, Lei Jiu was quite satisfied.

The island owner is satisfied, and the next step is to continue the construction of 9 ships.

There are a total of 20 giant barracudas, and every two takes a turn to carry a boat. After spending so much cost and keeping them for so long in vain, Lei Jiu has to pay back and stop the loss!

The problem of fast ships is solved, and it is time to form a formal navy on the island.

But right now, there are no outstanding naval talents on the island.

In the end, Lei Jiu still planned to wait and turn on the population refresh again during the autumn harvest to see if there would be any surprises. After all, shipbuilding also takes time.

Seeing that the population is approaching 100,000, the system has not even given him a talent who is suitable for commanding the navy.

This year's spring planting area is 45,000 hectares of corn alone, plus thousands of hectares of soybeans, and hundreds of tons of seafood imported every day, Huanghuang Island can now maintain a population of nearly one million.

Of course, there is also winter wheat. Otherwise, only 600,000 to 700,000 people can be supported by only one season of grain harvest.

Before the autumn harvest, Lei Jiu will release the population refresh limit again.

This time, if the population is less than 800,000, he will not stop the population refresh.

He doesn't believe it anymore~lightnovelpub.net~ The increase of 700,000 people, including one or two naval talents?

When he went home to rest in the evening, Lei Jiu noticed that there was another letter in the mailbox.

She took it out and saw that the sender of the letter was Shen Baiye.

Could it be that the post he posted a few days ago was effective?

Lei Jiu himself is blocking strangers from adding friends. All the harassed work is done by Shen Baiye. Anyway, this guy likes to talk nonsense with people, acquaintances or strangers, he can chat. And enjoy it.

Shen Baiye mentioned in the letter that someone contacted him and wanted to exchange an S-rank famous general challenge card for an epic sword.

The specific S-level counterpart did not say, but only proposed to deal face-to-face as soon as possible, handing the knife with one hand and the card with the other.

If Lei Jiu intends to change it, send him the epic sword as soon as possible.

S-class?

Also, for now, S-rank is better than A-rank, because there are fewer players who are qualified to encroach on the soul of S-rank generals, and the challenge difficulty is even more difficult to achieve in a short period of time.

Each general's challenge card is not unique. As time goes by, as long as the soul has not been taken away, the corresponding challenge card will continue to appear and gradually increase.

It is better to replace it with something useful and not easy to depreciate as soon as possible.

Without hesitation, Lei Jiu took out the epic sword and sent it directly to Shen Baiye.

After all, for Lei Jiu, epic weapons are no longer rare, and it would be a fool not to change them!
