In the end, Fred and George could only agree to Darren's suggestion, and at the same time, they agreed that the matter should be kept secret from Ron and Ginny for the time being, only that he would go to the sea to search again to avoid unnecessary trouble, after all, Ron and Ginny are also wizards, and their mobility is not bad at all. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

According to the fisherman's instructions, Darren came to an island called the Coral Temple, because there is a natural freshwater bay, which can provide enough fresh water for seafaring ships, so it has become a necessary route for fishermen and all kinds of private boats to go to sea, because of the large number of people, the result is a black market here, as long as there is money, can buy almost anything, he should be able to find the boats and sailors he needs.

Moreover, after hearing that he planned to go deep into the coral spiral to find his friend who was shipwrecked, the fishermen felt that he was righteous enough and a man, so they all tried their best to help him, especially telling him that if he wanted to ensure safety, it was most suitable to have a boat in the coral temple, because it had been specially modified for the coral spiral.

Because of the time constraints, after a short rest, Darren followed the fishermen to the bottom of the cliff, and saw that there was a water hole there, and there were many boats docked, all kinds of things, all ages, fishing boats, small cargo ships, sail turbines, all kinds of things, but they never stopped, and walked straight to the depths of the water hole.

Turning a corner, the cliff above him cracked open, revealing a glimmer of skylight, and in the shadows that could not be illuminated, Darren saw a strangely shaped wooden boat, "This is it," said the fisherman, pointing to the boat.

Darren walked over, looked around, and carefully inspected this ship that claimed to be the most suitable for entering the coral spiral, its shape is very ancient, not large, estimated to be dozens of tons, probably able to carry a dozen people, the hull is mainly a wooden structure, dark and shiny, all the rivets are embedded in the wood, and then sealed with wooden wedges.

"Wooden boats?" Darren asked the fisherman, frowning, if he was joking with him, or if he was trying to lie to him, who would build a boat out of wood in this day and age?

"Sea willow," said the fisherman, patting the hull of the boat, "this ship is made of sea willow, which is a tree that grows on the bottom of the sea, which will not be deformed when exposed to moisture and heat, and it is resistant to corrosion, and it is as strong as new, and it is very strong than any steel, especially this one, which is almost a hundred years old, but you see, as if it had just been built, there is no sign of damage at all." ”

"Seawillow?" said Darren, confused.

"Yes, you are a foreigner, you don't know that sea willow is normal, this material is very rare, although it is shaped like a willow tree, but in fact it is like a coral, it is a sea creature, it grows very slowly, it is said that it takes tens of thousands of years to take shape, every inch is a treasure, the older generation said that if you use sea willow in the important components of the hull, you will be blessed by the god of water, and nothing will happen. ”

"And the boat has been modified to get into a coral spiral," the fisherman said, turning to a local, "tell the boss about it, you know the boat best." ”

It turned out that the other party was the current owner of the ship, and he had helped with the refit of the ship back then, so he knew the situation of the ship and the equipment on it.

"This boat was a fast boat used by the bandits, and then the bandits were exterminated, but the boat was hidden in this water hole, so it stayed, and the fishermen found out and changed it into a fishing boat, with fishing nets, fishing cannons, A few years ago, there was a British salvage company, like you, who wanted to enter the coral spiral, and fell in love with this sea willow ship, and spent more than half a year to refit it, adding copper plate armor under the waterline, and modifying two kinds of power for steam boilers and motors for insurance, as well as two Indian water god Jinpilu cannons, which can fire four kinds of shells for different purposes. ”

"What Indian water cannon?" Don't look at the fact that he has an arms company under his hands, but Darren has never even heard of that name.

"The Indian water god Kim Pilu cannon," the owner of the ship knew that Darren had never seen it, so he explained, "This cannon is designed with the old old artillery in the past, and the gun body is close to the ancient 'mortar cannon', but its caliber is small, and the gun body is lengthened, so it can be fired flat, and the shot is accurate, but the reason why it is called this name is because it is not a naval combat weapon based on lethality, but plays a variety of roles in navigation, and the old-fashioned cannonball is more convenient to modify, and can be manufactured and used according to specific needs. In addition, because this kind of artillery is old and not very lethal, it is easy to get through the inspection at sea. ”

As he spoke, the owner of the ship led Darren to the deck, pointed out the cannon to him, and after seeing the real thing, he realized that it was an old-fashioned gun that had been slimmed down with modern metal materials, and was equipped with a gun carriage that could absorb recoil, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the direction of the fire, and even the ignition method also used a lead.

In addition to the artillery, the two large oval copper balls hanging behind the ship attracted Darren's attention again, "This thing is called a 'diving bell'", the owner of the ship immediately said, "It is an airtight enclosed diving tool, which can load people into it and hang them on a chain and fall to the bottom of the sea to reconnoiter the underwater situation, those British originally planned to fish for things in the coral spiral, so there is this." ”

"How long will it take to get rid of this?" Darren asked with a frown, he went to the Coral Spiral just to find a living person on the surface of the sea, and did not need diving operations, even if he was a wizard, it was impossible to survive underwater for too long, especially since Harry had lost his wand, so he didn't need diving equipment at all, and looking at these two big guys, not to mention the space and tonnage, it would definitely affect the center of gravity and stability of the ship, and he didn't want to capsize.

"Remove this?" the owner of the ship was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "Boss, don't you have to go into the water to go into the coral spiral?"

"The boss went into the Coral Spiral to find his friend," said the fisherman with admiration, "Do you remember the storm the other day, a boat was washed up in with his friend on it. ”

"Oh!" listened to the fishermen's words, and the face of the owner of the boat also showed admiration, for those of them at sea, such a fearless life and death for their friends would definitely arouse their respect.
