Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 171: Iron bone number
???? The job of replacing the "head portrait" is very simple.
???? The "head image" can be replaced at will, and the position of the bow is specially set with an adjustable card slot, which is convenient to adapt to different types of bow images.
???? Gary stepped forward to dismantle the original portrait of the ordinary ship of the boy Blowing the Conch on the "Conch". Aiwen alone easily lifted the "Monsoon Goddess" that needs four or five guards to lift, and installed it to the bow of the ship.
???? No extra process is required.
???? Soon, as a sea breeze blows, there is no sound and light effect in the mortal's field of vision. But in Aiwen's spiritual vision, a vague wave of witchcraft has spread from the "Head Statue·Monsoon Goddess" and spread throughout the ship.
???? "It's done!"
???? Seeing the "Head of the Ship" started smoothly, Ivan couldn't help but put a smile on his face.
???? A few months ago, when the combined fleet fought against the "ghost ship", Ivan was very enthusiastic about its three-head twisted bow, which, despite the weirdness, is extremely powerful. Just a mere portrait of a ship's head gave the "ghost ship" a powerful force equivalent to a quasi-legendary battleship.
???? It’s just a pity that the real legendary battleship "Steam Fortress" and the entire "ghost ship" were directly exploded, and there was not even a little scum left.
???? I was planning to improve my wizard's abilities, and then build a ship's bow that was tailored for myself. Unexpectedly, the Viscount generously "lent" the "monsoon goddess" to Ai Wen so that he could catch up with the pirates in time.
???? Although it is a human creation, it may not be less effective than a sea treasure when used well. At least in a sea power country like Falitis, it can be said to be priceless!
???? Very good, very good, and his surname will be Gallotte in the future.
???? Soon, the crew of the "Conch" returned to the ship one after another. Careful people have noticed that the bow image on their own warship has been changed, but no one dared to ask about such trivial "trivial things" as the captain was frightened by the power of the master captain.
???? "Report to the captain that all the crew are in place, please give instructions!" First Mate Borg walked to Ivan and bowed to ask for instructions.
???? Ivan did not refuse, and went straight to the **** to mobilize the sailors lined up on the deck.
??? "Brave naval soldiers!
???? I just received a complaint from the local consul Viscount Andrea, that a group of vicious pirates just hijacked a Leopold merchant ship, and it was on our patrol route.
???? As the Royal Navy, we have always had only one attitude towards pirates, that is, we will never let go of one against resolutely.
???? The majesty of the navy must not be offended, let the most heroic naval officers and soldiers of the kingdom give these pirates a little color!
???? A group of pirates are violently committing crimes in the patrol area of the ‘Conch’, under our noses...
Add atrocities.
???? Soldiers, do you agree to this kind of thing? ! "
???? "No! No!" The soldiers agreed in unison.
???? "Also, Your Excellency is a benevolent archon. After the mission is over, he is willing to give out two additional golden lions for each soldier to reward the navy's bravery!"
???? "Long live! Long live!" This time the harmony echoed, and the sky was shaken neatly!
???? "Go!"
???? Ivan waved his hand and issued an order, and the energetic soldiers moved quickly, raising the anchor and sailing to drive the "Conch" towards the sea.
???? This pre-war mobilization was not that Ivan wanted to show off the captain's presence. In fact, it followed the normal course of action of the Royal Navy.
???? In order to ensure the kingdom’s control over each warship after going out to sea, the auxiliary captain’s lieutenants on the ship need to record the logbook independently, and everything that happens on the ship must be independent Based on the log book.
???? And although the captain has huge powers, he cannot appoint or remove any actual captain officer. To some extent, this series of regulations are also checks and balances on the captain's rights.
???? It's like the appointment of Captain Gary, and it's just an agent. Although there is Aiwen, the weight of this agent may be greater than that of the principal, but nominally, he can only act according to the rules.
???? Therefore, this operation cannot hide the Third Fleet from doing private work.
???? Ivan simply told the navy officers and soldiers of the deleted "real" information, and followed the normal process to exercise their cruise duties. Even if something went wrong, he couldn't fault him as the captain!
???? The crew worked together to perform their duties, and wanted to let the "Conch" give birth to wings and immediately catch up with the group of pirates to retake the merchant ship for the Viscount.
???? It’s just going to sea not long ago.
???? "Wade, do you think our "Conch" runs very fast today?"
???? "Tracy, do you feel that way too?"
???? The chief steer Tracy on the ship stopped the rope leader Vader who was passing by and asked with some doubts. After all, the two of them plus the navigator Adrian should be the three most sensitive to the speed of the ship.
???? "I just threw down the speed rope, and I will know what our speed is in a moment." Sailing leader Vader is obviously an actionist, the first time he found out that the speed of the ship was wrong. Responded.
???? In this era, there is only a blue wave on the sea, and there are almost few reference objects. In addition, without all kinds of advanced equipment, it is not easy to accurately measure the ship's speed.
???? But the clever seafarers invented the speed rope test algorithm.
???? The specific method is to throw a floating body with ropes to the sea when the ship is sailing, and then calculate the speed of the ship based on the length of the rope pulled out in a certain period of time.
???? In order to reduce the error, the rope may be placed very long, and many knots are tied at the same distance on the rope,...
In this way, the entire tachometer rope is divided into several sections.
???? As long as the number of knots pulled by the rope in the same unit time is measured, the corresponding speed will naturally be measured.
???? This is also the origin of "knot" as the unit of measurement for seagoing ship speed.
???? Soon, through the accurate timing of the portable pocket watch, they were surprised to find that according to past experience, today's speed should be around 6 knots under normal conditions, but the actual measured speed has reached an astonishing 7 There are nearly 8 knots.
???? Increased by 20%-30% out of thin air, and the hull is still very stable.
???? "What's going on?" The two looked at each other only at the confusion in each other's eyes.
???? In fact, their status as official officers is enough to know part of the truth about the extraordinary world, but they are limited by their long-term service on Tier VI cruisers.
???? Except for the official knight training materials and the legendary stories circulating on the sea, there are no more channels to get more information about the extraordinary world.
???? Fortunately.
???? It is impossible for Irving to allow his ship to maintain the status quo, and it is impossible for his wizarding ability to be used forever. He is already preparing to open up some extraordinary common sense for the crew to a limited extent, starting with this "Head Statue·Monsoon Goddess".
???? It’s okay if I just want to mess around, but whether I’m going to the New World to find my sister, revenge against an enemy far away in another country, or realizing the ambitions in my heart, there is no high-quality team. It definitely won't work.
???? They must be armed with knowledge and skills so that the crew can keep up with themselves.
???? It’s like industrial development. No matter how good your leader is, it won’t work without a large number of high-quality industrial workers to lay a solid foundation.
????......
???? The two sea ships on the sea are moving slowly one after the other, but most of their sails have been lowered, and they are obviously not in a hurry.
???? The black sail in front of the ship blatantly shows the fact that he is a pirate ship.
???? "Iron Bones" is a three-masted pirate ship transformed from a merchant ship.
???? The ship is forty meters in length~IndoMTL.com~ There are 20 artillery pieces, and there is also a bow gun that is more symbolic than practical. However, the bow gun carried a section of iron hoop, like the spine of a giant creature, which matched the ship's name very well.
???? A vicissitudes of middle-aged man wearing a triangular captain's hat, with cyan stubble, holding a pirate scimitar at his waist, standing behind the bow gun, looking at the sea in the distance.
???? Wearing a white floral-sleeved shirt, trousers and leather boots that are not exquisite but very clean, the slight laziness reveals a skill that cannot be concealed. It is the captain of this pirate ship "Iron William".
???? "How about the people on the'Bitail'?"
???? "Captain, don't worry, I'll explain it to you, you will not abuse it if you eat or drink...
Wait for them. "
???? Behind him was a sturdy young man with a naked torso and bronze skin, holding a dagger in his hand and playing with a knife. Hearing this, he immediately put away the dagger and bowed slightly and replied.
???? "But, Captain, do you say that the fat pig in Wiscoll City will keep its promise? We will act for him in a play. Will he really release our first mate? "
???? Answered the most respectful question of the captain conscientiously, and the sturdy young man also asked his own doubts.
???? In his impression, the so-called dignitaries on the shore are all hungry wolves in human skins, who have always eaten people without spitting out bones. Even if they only say one word, they have to consider whether there will be seven or eight meanings behind it.
???? If you are not careful, you will be fooled by them!
???? "Hehe, he dare not!" The vicissitudes of middle-aged man, the captain of this pirate ship, "Iron William" touched the double knives on his waist, and said categorically.
???? The words are short but contain infinite confidence!
