Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 245: Intercept at sea
Chapter 245 Intercept at Sea
The sky is full of sky, and Yinghong looks at the endless ocean. The flying fish of the morning dawn was full of sails and sailed through the wind.
"Lord(s), Professor Bob and his servant already woke up, and now they are a little excited" Schwartz boarded the platform and told Lorist Reported.
The two sacks that were carried by Els and others last night were Professor Bob who had cracked the dwarf gunpowder formula, and Serviera, his servant. Through the old brother of Els, the current community boss Ledos learned that Professor Bob had no children and was not married, but there was an early widow widow named Shiweila who had been with him for nearly twenty years. Personal servant.
According to Ledos, Professor Bob's relationship with this woman named Shivera is not very clear. It is likely that he did not marry her because of his reputation. In fact, the two have a good relationship. It seems that the monthly salary that Professor Bob received from the Star College was given to this Shivera to arrange his own life.
Qingxing Academy ranks very low in Morante City Academy, it seems to be around twenty-one. Professor Bob's salary is not high, and he only has three gold fordess per month. Since the professor likes to study some weird and weird things and spends a lot of money on it, his life is not very rich. In addition, Professor Bob did not have a good time at the Star College, and repeatedly threatened to seek another career.
Lorist originally thought that it would be easy to recruit Professor Bob. Who knows that this Professor Bob is a determined libertarian and hates Aristocrat(s). Lorist personally went over to delay the invitation, but was scolded, and was driven out by the professor with a broom.
Although I do n’t know if Professor Bob had conflicts with Aristocrat(s) in his early years and suffered losses, but the time was too tight for Lorist to ignore the insider and to look around again. He ordered Els to take the professor directly to the professor last night. Dizzy, even his servant-maid, Shivera, came over, and on the boat, she couldn't help but teach waywardness.
"Okay, I'll see him and calm down the mood of the professor." Lorist said that he didn't see Schwartz roll his eyes behind him.
Professor Bob is not a little emotional, but very excited, especially after seeing Lorist, he understands why he is on board. At this moment, his anger was like a volcanic eruption, and a series of swear words from the market were stunned. It was hard to believe that this was a knowledgeable and courteous college professor.
"Professor Bob, I have no bad intentions in inviting you, just thinking" Lorist managed to wait for Professor Bob to stop.
"Don't think about anything, I won't do what you want, I won't agree with whatever you want, what abominable you" Professor Bob didn't even listen to what Lorist was saying, it was another Suddenly scolded, mixed with words attacking Lorist's own intelligence, pulled Lorist to the same level as the donkey.
Lorist turned a deaf ear, as if he hadn't heard the personal scoldings of Professor Bob. He turned his attention to the professor's servant maid, Shivera, and found that she was seasick. She was busy ordering the Schwartz standing outside the cabin to go to the medicine box in his cabin to take the Potion that controlled the seasickness. Hoarse throat
Professor was finally helpless with Lorist's cheeky face. He thought he could anger Lorist and beat him up. He also showed his unyielding conviction that he would not use it. Who knew that Lorist didn't take his own swearing to heart, but instead took care of Sylvia, who was seasick.
"What on earth do you want me to do? I am a poor professor and have no money at all. The professors who have learned so many Morante City colleges are much better than me, and have you heard of my dispute with the college? In the eyes of other professors, I am an old stubborn person who likes to study strange and weird things. "Drinking tea, Professor Bob, who had been silent for a long time, opened his mouth again. This time, he did not scold, but was deeply confused.
Lorist laughed, just communicate normally: "Professor Bob, I asked you for gunpowder."
"dwarf 's launch gunpowder" Professor Bob is still very puzzled: "I finished already research earlier, and published the formula in the academic report last year. Isn't it published in the Morante daily newspaper? Should you go to the public library? Yes, it's all there, nothing is missing. "
"Professor, I'm interested in your opinion that there is still a lot of room for improvement in the gunpowder launch of dwarf . What I want is the best mix of gunpowder." Lorist said.
Professor spread his hand: "Then you should go to dwarf and get a lot of saltpeter ore from them, so that you can carry out various gunpowder tests and finally get the best ratio. The problem is In the human world, we haven't found saltpeter mines. Those dwarfs would never sell us saltpeter mines.
Professor Bob cursed a few more words, but this time the object of being scolded was dwarf with square heads and brains.
"Professor, I don't have saltpeter mine either, but I can provide you with a lot of nitrate for gunpowder tests. I invited you here for this matter," said Lorist.
The "impossible" professor jumped in shock: "Why do you have a lot of nitrate without saltpeter ore? If you have a lot of nitrate, you can tell me the first time you come to the door"
Lorist shook his head with a smile: "Professor, you should understand that gunpowder is a powerful weapon, and it can even change the situation of Glintland Battle Qi. I do not want to be a nail in the eyes of others for this. Nature is actually very wonderful. The human world has not found saltpeter ore, but there is a way to provide a lot of saltpetrate, but no one has found it except me. If you are patient, when you come to my family Territory, you will know this. What is this method. "
"Tell me first what it is," the professor couldn't wait.
Lorist shook his head.
Professor Bob stared fiercely at Lorist, Lorist smiled unmoved.
"Okay, I believe you once, you better not lie to me" Professor gave up. There is no other way if you don't admit defeat, everyone is on the boat, and you can't run away if you want to run.
"There is a ship ahead, watch out for vigilance." Our family also has the latest long-range attack weapons, let alone such backward things. "
Lorist was trying to speak, but saw Els scolding him on the platform.
"Lord(s), those Ballistas are useless at all," Els said.
"What happened?" Lorist asked.
"Although the range of Lord(s) and Ballista is far, you can't aim at it. This is not on land, the seas are undulating, and the opposite side is not a military formation. You can close the eyes and launch in one direction. It seems to be as big as a palm, and it is difficult to aim at a boat. And these launched iron bolt are useless. I fired ten and shot two. One stuck in the cabin and nothing happened. , The other opened a hole in the sail and did not know where to fly, "Els complained.
In Lorist's shame, I took it too seriously and moved Chariot Ballista to the ship to know that this is not a long-range weapon suitable for maritime engagements. It is not as threatening as the fireballs fired by the Chickadee Chamber of Commerce fleet.
"Lord(s), the best range for long-range attacks at sea is 30 meters to 50 meters. After this distance, most of the ships that want to hit each other rely on luck. After all, everyone is on the sea, the ships are not The range of the movement is not long, so the range is far from having any advantage. The main thing in naval battles now is to engage in side battles. If the opponent ’s strength is dominant, ordinary long-range attacks will not cause much damage to the enemy. Say.
Lorist nodded: "Thank you for your guidance, Captain Wilson. When we return, we will discuss what kind of weapons are most suitable for the ship."
Before the words fall, listen to the watcher shouting again: "Front, there is a fleet ahead"
To be continued.
