Chapter 171: Iron Bones

???? The job of changing the "head image" is very simple.
???? "The bow image" can be changed at will, and the bow position 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.
???? Does not require any redundant processes.
???? Soon, with a sea breeze blowing, no sound and light effects appeared in the mortal's vision. But in Aiwen's spiritual vision, a vague wave of witchcraft has spread from the "Head Statue·Monsoon Goddess" to the entire ship.
???? "It's done!"
???? Seeing the "Head of the Ship" started smoothly, Irvine couldn't help but show a smile.
???? A few months ago, when the combined fleet fought against the "ghost ship", Ivan was very enthusiastic about its three-head twisted bow, which was terrifying despite its weirdness. 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, in the end, the real legendary battleship "Steam Fortress" and the entire "ghost ship" directly exploded, and there was not even a little scum left.
???? I was planning to build a ship's bow image tailored for myself as my wizard abilities improved. 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 called priceless!
???? Very good, very good, and it will be named Galliot in the future.
???? Soon, the crew of the "Conch" all returned to the ship. 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's might.
???? "Report to the Captain, all the staff are already in place, please instruct!" First Mate Borg walked to Aiwen and bowed to ask for instructions.
???? Irving did not refuse, and went straight to the stern to give mobilization instructions to the sailors who lined up on the deck.
???? "Brave naval soldiers!
???? I just received a complaint from the local consul Viscount Andrea. A group of vicious pirates just hijacked a Leopold merchant ship, and it was on our patrolling route.
???? As the Royal Navy, we have always had only one attitude towards pirates, that is, we will never let go of one.
???? 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’, performing under our noses...
Add brutality.
???? Soldiers, do you agree to this kind of thing? ! "
???? "No! No!" The soldiers agreed in unison.
???? "Also, Your Excellency is a benevolent consul. After the mission is over, he is willing to give out two additional golden lions for each soldier to reward the navy's bravery!"
???? "Hurray! Hurray!" This time the harmony echoed, and the sky was shaken neatly!
????"set off!"
???? Aiwen waved his hand and issued an order, and the energetic soldiers moved quickly, raising the anchor and sailing 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.
After going to sea, in order to ensure the kingdom's control over each warship, the lieutenants of the auxiliary captains on the ship need to record the logbook independently, and the large and small things that happen on the ship must be based on the independent logbook. in accordance with.
???? And although the captain has huge powers, he cannot appoint or remove any actual captain officer. To a certain extent, this series of regulations are also checks and balances on the captain's rights.
???? It's like the appointment of Captain Gary, 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 follow the rules.
???? Therefore, this operation cannot hide the Third Fleet from doing private work.
???? Ivan simply told the navy officers and soldiers the deleted "real" information, and followed the normal process to exercise his cruise duties. Even if there were problems, he couldn't fault him as the captain!
????The crew worked together in their respective duties, and could not wait for the "Conch" to give birth to wings and immediately catch up with the group of pirates to retake the merchant ship for the Viscount.
???? Just went to sea soon.
???? "Vade, do you think our'Conch' is running very fast today?"
???? "Tracy, do you feel that way too?"
???? The chief steer Tracy on the ship stopped the leader of the sailing line 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." The sail leader Vader was obviously an actionist, and made it the first time he discovered that the speed of the ship was wrong. reaction.
???? In this era, there is only a blue wave on the sea, there are almost few reference objects, and 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 drawn 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 of sea-going ship speed.
???? Soon, through the accurate timing of the portable pocket watch, they were surprised to find that according to past experience, the speed under normal conditions today should be around 6 knots, but the actual measured speed has reached an astonishing 7 knots. 8 knots.
???? Increased by 20%-30% out of thin air, and the hull is still very stable.
???? "What's the matter?" 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 transcendental world, but they are limited by their long-term service on Tier VI cruisers.
???? Apart from 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.
???? Irving can't allow his ship to maintain the status quo, nor can his wizarding ability be used forever. He has already prepared to open up some extraordinary common sense to 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 my ambitions, it’s definitely not possible without a high-quality team. .
????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.
????......
???? The two sea ships on the sea were moving slowly one after the other, but most of their sails had been lowered, obviously in no hurry.
???? The one in front is hung with black sails, and it clearly shows the fact that he is a pirate ship.
???? "Iron Bones" is a three-masted pirate ship transformed from a merchant ship.
???? The whole ship is forty meters long, UU reading www.uukanshu. There are twenty com artillery pieces, and there is 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 name of the ship.
???? 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 distant sea.
Wearing a white shirt with floral sleeves, trousers and leather boots, which is not exquisite but very clean, his laziness reveals his ability that cannot be concealed. It is the captain of this pirate ship "Iron William".
???? "How about those people on the'Two Tail'?"
???? "Captain, don't worry, I'll explain it to you, you will not abuse it if you eat or drink...
Treat them. "
???? Behind him was a sturdy young man with a naked torso and a 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.
???? "However, Captain, do you say that the fat pig in Westcore City will keep its promise? We will act for him in a play. Will he really release our first mate?"
???? Answered the most respected question of the captain conscientiously, and the sturdy young man also asked his 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.
???? 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!
