Watching the Dawn

Vol 7 Chapter 139: Elona

The owner of the small dock in Trinidad, Spain's retired shipbuilding master Oren, once gave him two gold drawings. One of them requires a carpentry skill level of 40, after which he came up with the manufacturing method of "blue sky boat canvas". The other one requires carpentry skill level 60, but his carpentry skill level is now fixed at 43 ... The interpretation of this drawing is far away.

Because the Lord God cannot affect the Shipwreck Island, even if Lu Yuan tries harder here, the level of the carpenter will not rise a bit.

Putting away the drawings, Lu Yuan could only continue to conduct a full inspection of the ship. Looking forward to this drawing, it might be more meaningful to expect the golden treasure chest of the big octopus ... Lu Yuan simply put these behind his head.

Just like Oren, every true shipbuilder has his own secret.

Although Henrik Van Dyck is vulgar and greedy, his professionalism is unquestionable. Twenty years of confinement on the shipwreck island have allowed him to create a way to "strengthen" ordinary ships into magic ships. Because the materials used to make the magic ship are all extremely cherished, it is impossible to find even the treasures such as Shipwreck Island. If only ordinary materials are used, no matter how high the technology and the best drawings are, the effect of strengthening will be limited, and it can only reach the lowest level of "bronze".

Is it worth it to spend 1.4 million pesos, a lot of magic materials, and a few days of critical moments for a few unremarkable attributes?

Certainly worth it, even necessary! Because Lu Yuan and Henrik Van Dyck are not focusing on the enhanced attributes, but on strengthening the auxiliary effect in the process of magic ship-ship renovation.

The materials that strengthened the "St. Gabriel" have all been boarded. Just wait for them to upgrade the ship after completing the improvement work. Because the basic attributes are closely related to the upgraded attributes. So Lu Yuan and the old shipbuilder try their best to do their best! In this regard, Henrik Van Dyck did not cut corners.

The rest of the materials needed to go to sea. It was temporarily stacked on the deck of the "St. Augustine".

"Who prepared the water ?!" Lu Yuan shouted, frowning as he looked at the stacks of large wooden barrels.

The store owner Eric Jost ran over, "I prepared it, is there any problem with the water quality? I will let them replace it immediately!" In fact, it is not necessary, there is a heavy rain in the sky, as long as the water is dumped, it will be full of effort Too. Then cover the lid to settle for a few days, this water can be drunk.

of course. Not at sea. Because once the tornado blows, the rainwater on the sea will become salty water, and any act of collecting rainwater will be in vain.

"No, there is no problem with water, but is there any item on my list?" Lu Yuan stretched the list to him.

"What are you talking about? There really aren't any on the list, but I thought you missed it ... How can you go to sea without fresh water? Are you crazy?". When he understood Lu Yuan's meaning, Eric Jost couldn't help but question loudly. This is simply too difficult to understand.

Many people around stopped and looked here, after all, the problem of fresh water. Related to the lives of everyone on board.

Lu Yuan was much lazy to explain, he kicked a bucket of fresh water without saying a word, and poured the water on the deck. After emptying, he ordered two sailors to load a bucket full of sea water.

When the clear water is in front of Lu Yuan. He took out a transparent glass bottle and dripped a drop of liquid into it. In an instant, at the bottom of the barrel. A layer of crystal particles was separated. Products from all over the world can be found on the shipwreck island, and Lu Yuan finally collected all the raw materials. The medicament for purifying seawater has been prepared, and the effect is even better than that provided by Muxing.

"It's salt!" Someone shouted excitedly.

When the time passed five minutes. Lu Yuan used a wooden bowl to scoop up a bowl of "sea water" directly in the bucket, and drank it without frowning! Then handed it to Eric Jost.

He surprisingly scooped up a bowl of "sea water". When he drank his teeth and drank it, he couldn't help saying, "It's fresh water!"

The sailors were in chaos, and then everyone rushed to pick up the wooden bowl to drink the "sea water" in the bucket. "It's fresh water! It's fresh water!" More and more spreads, everyone looked at Lu Yuan's eyes, could not help but become awe. In the age of great navigation, with the ability to turn sea water into fresh water, the crew will never die from lack of water, which is a feat comparable to a miracle.

"We don't need to carry fresh water, throw this away and replace it with something more valuable!" Lu Yuan ordered loudly, and the sailors agreed excitedly. He then said to Eric Jost, "I don't need a self-proclaimed person, you will be a logistics assistant in the future."

Disobedient people, of course, cannot hold the position of "Logistics Officer" as the captain's money bag.

The fifth day.

The torn winds are more violent, and the heavy rain clouds are almost pressed to the top of the head. Everything indicates that a huge shipwreck is coming!

"The water is rising too fast!" John Walkman came to Lu Yuan and reported. He was the first adjutant to form a tacit understanding with Lu Yuan. Of course, it is surprising that the second one to form a tacit understanding was actually Padre Angel.

When John reported, the surface of the water was close to the deck of the "St. Augustine", but there were still hill-like materials piled up there. The suspension bridge connecting the shipwreck city has also been submerged for half. Now most of the residents are standing on the "St. Augustine", trembling in the heavy rain, and only Father Padley Angel is comforting them one by one.

"So start!" Lu Yuan said to the shipbuilder Henrik Van Dyke.

Although the current St. Gabriel ’s body is full of various “patches”, she has been completely remodeled—whether it is the wheel rudder, the pulley block, the new pumping tool, or Lu Yuan ’s persevering bottom triangle The scaffolding has been completed. Not only that, the tilt of the hull has also been corrected with a crowbar with the efforts of all the residents. It is now basically level, like the falcon on the top of the island.

Henrik Van Dyck took out a silver-enhanced blueprint and boarded the cruiser St. Gabriel alone. Now all the supplies are piled in the captain's room, and the money needed is in the bottom warehouse. The preparation for the upgrade is complete.

Lu Yuan, John Wockman and nearly a hundred people stood at the bottom of the hill and looked at the already great ship together.

after awhile. The crowd began to exclaim, and then turned into a joyous cry! Even Lu Yuan shook his fist fiercely. Waved hard. I saw that the cruiser like Impressionism began to radiate a silvery white light throughout the body, even if the storm that covered the sky could not cover it!

Immediately afterwards that ship experienced a miraculous transformation!

The rusty cannons became shiny and new; the old wood seemed to have just been taken out of the workshop, and it was also smeared with clear oil; just in the strong wind, it was like a mast that was about to break, and now it is like a pillar of iron Even the paint on the hull of the ship shone with a moist feeling that had not yet dried out-a side effect of magic strengthening, "renovation of the ship", and this moment triggered a miraculous effect.

In less than six hours, the entire ship became as if it had just left the shipyard. Like a new ship about to launch!

"Mr. Captain, please name the new ship!" The tired Henrik Van Dyke appeared in front of everyone again. He respectfully said to Lu Yuan.

"Elona!" Lu Yuan looked at the new ship without blinking and said directly.

"Elona? Is that your lover's name? This is a super-samsung, extremely powerful battleship! What do you think of the name" War Dog "?" Henrik Van Dyck couldn't accept it. 'S battleship actually took the name of a woman, not the famous woman's name like the Queen!

"Trust me, it's called Elona, ​​and she will bring us good luck! I love the name!"

Yes, from the first sight. He felt like he was in love with this boat. It felt like the first time I saw Nana! (Slapping the bullshit, nothing happened when you first saw Nana?)

This is a super cruiser with three-layer sails and three masts. It has the characteristics of high speed and strong firepower of Samsung cruiser. In all aspects, the performance is comparable to the two-star ship, so it will be judged as a super Samsung ship.

The hull of "Elona" is 37 meters long and 8 meters wide. The narrow and long hull shaped like a shuttle. The exterior of the hull is marked with black and white lines, indicating the deck markings and water line. The ship has four decks (some of them do not include the bottom silo when calculating the number of decks. This article is simplified, and the bottom silo is also included). From top to bottom are the open deck, artillery deck, lower deck and bottom bin.

The entire ship can be equipped with forty 32-pound artillery! Among them, the weather deck is arranged according to two front and rear doors, four left and right doors, and a total of twelve cannons. On the second artillery deck, there are artillery, adjutant's room and captain's room, 14 left and right, a total of 28 artillery!

Important cabins on the third deck include canteens, sailor cabins, carpentry rooms, churches / hospitals, etc.

The bottom silo is completely filled with cargo and ballast.

The hull completely canceled the bow and stern, and the open deck was designed with a slightly warped flat deck, the traditional way of the British.

Cruiser (): "Elona"

Cruisers are used to describe small, fast, and suitable warships for various roles. Cruisers generally do not fight ships such as battleships and frigates, nor participate in fleet decisive battles. They are mainly used for **** and pirate hunting by commercial fleets.

This super cruiser designed by Henrik van Dyck and Lu Yuan is a slightly magically strengthened ship. The hull structure and wind and wave resistance have been improved to a certain extent, and Henrik van Dyck is The design of the diving boat is also reflected in it.

Super Samsung cruiser, bronze-class magic ship.

Captain: Lu Yuan

Hull durability: 5400/5400, sail durability: 200/200, sailing speed: 21.93 knots (minimum speed +1 knots), steering maneuver: 70.91, wind efficiency: 6.50, load capacity: 175/197 tons, crew: 214 / 464 people, firepower configuration: forty 32-pound cannons

Attributes:

The hull is strong, and its anti-shock and anti-wind and wave properties are increased by 20%.

The seal is good, and even if the vessel is submerged briefly in the water, it will not cause backflushing.

——————

The hull is sturdy and the firepower is fierce. This is an excellent battleship that can win even if it is stopped against the frigate!

Even more valuable is that she has the speed and high mobility that Lu Yuan has always favored. The highest speed of the "Elona" can be comparable to the "Blue Bird", and its strongest is the flexibility of up to 70+. Under the control of Lu Yuan, it can become a dolphin!

The only flaw is the 32-pound artillery on both sides of the weather deck. The center of gravity is too high. Shooting on both sides will cause the ship to swing horizontally. However, these artillery will be unloaded on the way through the storm, and loaded into the bottom silo as ballast, they will not be used along the way.

In the future, this position will be replaced with a lighter weight 24-pound gun, six on each side.

In fact ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ In order to load more money and cargo, except for the one that has been loaded in the cannon, he didn't even carry a shell and a barrel of gunpowder ... an extremely wealthy slave! God knows what should Lu Yuan do if the shot filled in the cannon fails, and they meet pirates again ...

When night came, all people and supplies boarded the "Elona".

Listening to the thunder and lightning that sounds from time to time, those who cannot sleep can only pray in silence ...

At this time, all that remains is to wait.

In the dark ship stern, Lu Yuan gently pressed his hands against the new wheel rudder, and a feeling of being integrated with the ship flooded his heart.

The Caribbean, my enemy, my friend ... are you ready?

At this moment, Cole Busso was no longer on his mind.
