v3 Chapter 32: Sudden naval battle

When I saw Brent again, it was on the turbulent sea. Compared with his own Aurora, Brent’s new ship was very stable on the sea. Standing on it, I only felt a little wobbly. This kind of shaking makes no difference peacefully to people who have lived on the sea for many years.

"Great new boat."

From the time he boarded the Hope on Brent, Ethan was looking around, wanting to see what the ship on which Brent had invested a lot of property and energy.

Wooden structure, metal skin, four masts full of sails, this is still a sail-driven vessel. However, Ethan noticed that the ship’s rear waterline position had obvious bulges, and magic stone propellers should be installed there. With Brent’s financial resources, even if the ship has no wind, there is no need to worry about it. Stop in place and can't move.

Ethan wondered why Brent didn’t give up sails altogether. Perhaps it was his inherent thinking that caused him not to think about it, or he was worried that the magic stone propeller would lose energy at a critical moment and could still rely on sails-on earth. Many designers had this idea when the ship changed from sailing power to steam power. Especially at that time, it was not convenient to replenish coal, so the sails were kept for a long time.

In addition, the steering wheel of the Hope is installed indoors. Although it is still on the stern, it is not an open-air design. It is estimated that the harsh sea conditions in this area will test the physique of the crew on the ship. It is best. The method is to hide in a constant temperature room-from this, it can be inferred that the ship must be equipped with a temperature adjustment device to ensure that there is a relatively normal temperature inside the ship.

"Thank you for your compliment, I can show you around later if you want to, and you can make a reference when you change to a new ship."

Brent is very enthusiastic. He is not worried about the information he has collected so painstakingly and leaked out because of the design of the ship, nor is he worried about the information of his ship leaking from Ethan to the outside, giving his enemies a chance to learn more about him.

"If it is convenient, I would be happy to visit your new ship."

"There is nothing inconvenient."

Brent led Ethan into the cabin. The internal space of Brent’s new ship was huge enough to reserve a large enough conference room. After he took Ethan into the conference room, there were already a few seats in it. personal.

Among these people are Bruno that Ethan has met, and there are several others that Ethan does not know. It seems that they are all the captains of this expedition.

"Everyone, this is Captain Ethan, who is the last member of our temporary fleet." Brent seems to have found a reason for Ethan a long time ago, explaining why he only reunited with others at this time: "Captain Ethan left and came here in advance to conduct preliminary investigations. What we know so far is that the situation has not changed much from what we knew before."

The captains looked at each other, and then looked at Ethan carefully. They did not despise Ethan because of his relatively young appearance.

Actually, at such a young age, they could drive the boat to this place, and even had the courage to participate in this operation. They paid more attention to Ethan than to ordinary captains.

This young man is either a genius with an adventure or a madman. Regardless of which, you must be careful, otherwise you will easily pit yourself and your crew to death if you are not careful.

Several people greeted Ethan one after another, but none of them, including Bruno, meant to introduce themselves.

After thinking about it, Ethan realized that their action was completely initiated by Brent, as long as Brent knew them, it was enough. As for them, there was no need to be too enthusiastic with each other. After the ghost knew this action, they would Will you become an enemy when you encounter it?

Brent also knew what these people thought, but he still called all the captains together to meet with each other. For nothing else, he just let them know each other, at least when there is a conflict, when solving the problem. Who should I call.

Of course, if possible, he hopes that there will be no conflicts, and the troubles ahead will be solved smoothly, and then everyone will go back together happily and peacefully.

It's a pity that his wish is destined to be difficult to come true. Just when everyone had just met and there was no chance to say a few words, one of Brent's men rushed in and didn't knock on the door in a hurry.

"Captain, something has happened."

His meaning is very clear, Brent had better go out and see in person, and then make the appropriate decision.

Seeing this situation, no one could sit still, and they all followed Brent out of the meeting room, and then went straight to the top of the poop.

Because Brent’s ship has a special order for the poop, the steering wheel and other driving equipment are all indoors, which also causes this ship to have a higher **** than ordinary open-air control ships, and there is one more **** on the top. The layer is fully utilized for observing the surrounding conditions.

All the captains came here, and there was a wide enough perspective to see what was going on. Then they saw several white lines on the sea ahead rushing towards everyone.

"What it is?"

"It won't be a good thing anyway!"

All the captains present are experienced captains. Various strange creatures will appear in the middle and later sections of this sea area, and even powerful creatures will treat adventurers as prey.

"We are going to have a naval battle, captains, you need to return to your ship as soon as possible to command this battle."

No need for Brent’s reminder, the captains have already stepped down the stern one after another. Everyone’s boats are parked together around Brent’s boat. Even if the distance is a little bit further, they can still be swayed by a rope. go back.

These captains returned to their boats one after another. Before leaving, Ethan looked at everyone's boats.

Most of them are similar to Brent’s Nozomi. Basically, they have propellers and skins installed. Only two ships still retain the open-air operating platform, and the other ships have chosen to drive indoors.

With the return of these captains, all the warships gradually raised their sails. What surprised Ethan was that no one thought of using propellers to speed up.

"Is your thinking rigid?"

Ethan’s Aurora was parked beside him. He didn’t need to perform acrobatics, he only needed to walk back from the springboard. Just before going back, Brent exhorted again: "You can direct your ship to follow behind my Hope, and use the magic stone cannon to maintain long-range firepower. Don't rush to the front."

"I know."

From the current point of view, his Aurora is undoubtedly the weakest of these ships. Brent is not sure if Ethan has installed magic stone shields on his ship, and now he can only treat it as if he hadn't come.

"Does your ship have enough firepower?"

"There are still cannons on the first floor."

I would also like to thank the looting, otherwise Ethan’s Aurora had only ten guns on one side. Now he can fill up the guns. Although it is still not as powerful as firepower, it will not be too ugly.

"That's enough." Brent emphasized again: "Remember, don't drive too far."

Ethan returned to the Aurora. Logan had done all the preparatory work. As soon as Ethan returned to the Aurora, he began to slowly regain his mobility.

As all ships gradually regained their mobility, the captains tacitly maintained the appropriate distance and the same speed. Brent’s Hope has become the flagship at this time, coordinating all the ships to prepare for battle.

"I found that none of them used the propeller to speed up for the first time, so I didn't do that."

Ethan stood in front of the console and didn't think there was anything wrong with Logan's choice. Although he didn't know why the captains did this, he didn't want to be too offbeat. He had no experience in this type of fleet battle. It is better to let others do it.

"Just follow the instructions and do not need to rush into the limelight."

The newly installed communication device is right next to the console, and it can also be directly operated with mental power. With Ethan’s current mental strength, he can easily stand here to'remote' the console to control the cannon on the ship, and It does not affect him holding the telescope to observe the distant situation.

As the fleet gradually increased its speed, Brent commanded all the ships to seize the upper hand, and then lined up to prepare for shelling.

The location of Ethan’s Aurora is behind Hope. Even if there is no communication device, it will not prevent him from fulfilling Brent’s request. He only needs to sail behind Hope. When he needs to shoot, he must have all the cannons on his side. Just roar.

Boom boom boom boom!

It was shocking when only a dozen cannons fired Now hundreds of cannons on several ships fire at the same time. Although the sound of magic stone cannons is not as scary as artillery, the momentum of hundreds of cannons is really amazing, even It was Loki, who was not interested in this matter, all ran out of his room and stood next to Ethan to watch this rare naval battle.

"The original way of fighting." As usual, Rocky said a few words: "But it's fun to experience it occasionally."

Perhaps men like this tune. When all the cannons fired together, Ethan only felt a burst of electricity from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and a strange feeling of numbness rose from the bottom of my heart.

"Excited?"

"Yes." Logan didn't know when he took another cigar: "I know this feeling, it made me addicted to it for a long time."

Looking at the veteran who had participated in many wars next to him, Ethan stood on the side of the ship and continued to look into the distance. The energy shells fired by the magic cannon had fallen on the white lines in the distance, causing splashes of water from the explosion. There seems to be something mixed in.

"Is that that?"

Ethan knew that it was something that rushed towards everyone. With a telescope Ethan could barely see the appearance of these things: it looked a bit like a shark?
