Anyway, this dodo's appetite is really not covered, since these guys came to the ship, our food consumption has begun to increase exponentially!

Hua Mei couldn't be too happy to see these guys, she was tired of being with these stupid guys all day long, and she had a lot of fun.

In fact, I can understand that she doesn't have much to do at sea on weekdays, it's all cats reading books in the cabin, or staying on the back deck fishing, or practicing martial arts or something, and only when I'm done can I accompany her.

Now that she has so many "friends", she has the final say, she eats for whomever she wants, beats whomever she wants, and naturally has a lot of fun.

When I finished discussing things with the nine ghosts and the others and went to see her, she was teaching these dodos to line up!

I hid outside the door and watched her babble and shout to command these stupid birds, and I laughed back and forth, and I laughed aloud!

She heard the laughter and looked back at me: "Qilan, come in!" These guys are laughing at me! ”

I immediately pushed the door in, and a flock of dodos, especially the first one I saw, immediately surrounded me, and in their simple brain circuits, I represented food, I represented a happy life.

It's a pity that when I came here today, I didn't come to feed them, but to see Huamei, and I really didn't bring anything. These stupid guys didn't know that one pressed one and squeezed one another, and as a result, they squeezed the dodo in front to the ground!

After a long sleep, he was in a mess for a while, and when all the dodos got up and began to look for a new source of food, they found that the calf of the first dodo had been squeezed into a ninety-degree angle!

"Ahh Hua Mei exclaimed: "These gluttonous things, after feeding them for a day, are still so greedy!" What do you see the Dulu squeezing into? ”

As he spoke, he touched the poor calling dodo on the ground, and he was sad and didn't want it.

Dulu...... The name, well, is apt. Looking at Hua Mei's sad face, I couldn't help but smile awkwardly: "Let me see." ”

Hua Mei immediately stepped out of the way, and I stepped forward and gently picked up Dulu's broken right calf.

As far as I could see, I only felt a slight warmth on the stone pendant on my chest, and my hands immediately lit up with a bright green light!

I have only one thought in my heart: Damn! Green Lantern!

Then the green light gently lingered on Dulu's calf, faintly like a scab, gently surrounding its wound!

Dulu suddenly stopped screaming, and looked at his calves with a dull face. This stupid guy probably knew that I was treating it, and he was honestly motionless, like a well-behaved child.

The green light flashed, and after about five minutes, the green light that lingered on Dulu's calf disappeared, and this guy didn't do anything, kicked his leg a few times, and immediately fluttered to his feet!

I saw it shaking its big head, and shaking its big buttocks, feeling that its body was fine, so it happily ran towards the culprits who had stepped on it just now!

I can't help but be ashamed, this guy's IQ is really ...... Good harmony! If everyone can have this mind, the world will be at peace forever!

Hua Mei saw that Dulu had recovered her health so quickly, and took my hand in surprise: "Qilan! Where did such an amazing ability come from? Then I remembered the fruit that the bear had given me: "Is that the fruit the effect?" ”

I smiled helplessly: "I don't know, since I absorbed—well, it's kind of absorbed, after absorbing that fruit, I seem to have this ability!" ”

Hua Mei cheered: "Won't it be invincible in the future!" As long as you don't die, run over and shout, Qilan, heal me! Instantly recovered? ”

I couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Just this moment after treating Dulu, I felt weak, I think this skill is at the cost of vitality, I'm afraid I can't use it so often!" ”

Hua Mei immediately jumped: "Vitality? That's it! Let's do less of the things that sacrifice ourselves for others! ”

After thinking about it, he suddenly cheered again: "Kite! I don't know if the injury of the kite has any effect? ”

I saw her face flushed with excitement, and I couldn't help but feel warm: "It should be effective!" When I find the kite, I will try to lose her vitality and let her recover as before! ”

Hua Mei pursed her lips and smiled happily: "I will definitely find it!" Back to the Ming Dynasty, you're busy with yours, I'll go to Dongying to find this guy! ”

I was so excited that I didn't know what to say for a while, so I could only gently stretch out my arms and gently hug Hua Mei in my arms.

"Thank you! Huamei. ”

She smiled and didn't say anything, just drilled her head hard into the depths of my arms......

The return journey went very smoothly, but in seven or eight days we saw the land of Madagascar, and it took us two more days to get around it, and soon we arrived at the port of Sofala.

When I sent to the port, I was taken aback by the "pomp" in the port!

From the first berth at the port dock to the innermost spare berthing point, it was full of North Sea sailboats!

Rodriguez's achievements this month are remarkable, and if you look at the numbers alone, my current fleet is exactly three times as large as when I came!

Of course, this is only the quantity, if you talk about the actual combat effectiveness of the increase is only afraid that it is not so significant, but the battle is indeed terrifying enough!

I disembarked and did not return to his chamber headquarters, and immediately boarded a three-masted galleon in the North Sea.

Coincidentally, Rodriguez was directing the sailors above to carry supplies and adjust the position of the artillery.

"Captain, you're back!" Rodriguez was delighted to see me: "This is the Santa Cruz, the flagship of the reserve fleet - forgive me for giving this name, which is also in honor of my grandfather." ”

I smiled and said, "The name is good, how is the overall performance of this boat?" ”

Rodriguez said: "This captain is built to the exact specifications of a typical North Sea three-masted sailing ship, but the whole keel is made of the finest Madagascar ironwood, which is quite strong and durable, and the hull is made of fine beech wood, which is light and strong." ”

As he spoke, he guided me into the cabin again: "I have renovated the internal facilities, reduced the functional cabins such as the staff room, the adjutant's room, the accounting room, etc., increased the material room and cargo compartment, and increased the gun emplacement by one-third!" ”

I nodded approvingly, "Very well, so what is the purpose of this transformation?" ”

Rodriguez glanced at Cristina next to him and smiled warmly: "According to Tina and my calculations, this transformation can increase the capacity of artillery warfare by half, and the cargo volume by forty percent." The only flaw is the close-quarters hand-to-hand combat, but fortunately, this is not our specialty and appeal! ”

I laughed and said, "That's true, the century of relying on dancing knives and guns to fight the world has passed, and the future belongs to firearms!" As I spoke, I suddenly remembered, "What about Charlie and Halleha?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Charlie's cynical voice sounded behind him: "Boss! I am here! ”

When I looked back, he walked up to me with a few people pushing a cannon: "Fortunately, Haleha and I have transformed a new type of artillery!" ”

As he spoke, the two of them took off the red silk from the cannon together, and what appeared in front of me was a brand new artillery!

It's almost a complete reproduction of my drawings! Slender barrels, angular turrets, metal blasters, all become reality!

"This is the first finished product of your genius idea!" Charlie bowed deeply to me: "According to your great idea, we have finally built the world's first cannon that does not require an ignition rope!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at Halleha, obviously not wanting to be preoccupied. Halleha smiled toothlessly: "Sir, the power of this cannon is much greater than that of the most powerful mortar cannon, the firing range is also more than 30 percent, and the most important thing is that the design speed can reach four rounds a minute!" This is simply a miracle of the times! ”

I waved my hand and said, "Stop bragging there!" Show me the performance in action! ”

"Okay!" The two confidently sent people to drive the two small boats to a position one nautical mile away, parked them, and at the same time issued a warning of live ammunition to warn the surrounding ships not to approach.

The guys around are obviously not surprised, it seems that they do this a lot!

Charlie first commanded the old British artillery to fire, and a minute passed before a little more than one round was fired, and the second round had not yet burned out. It took a full three minutes to turn the target ship on its side.

And then there's the show in Halleha! One minute! In just one minute, another target ship was bombarded and didn't even know where the keel went! That's the power of the Weapon Generation Gap!

When I saw such a result, I was naturally very happy! Surprised, he asked: "Can this cannon be mass-produced?" How much energy is produced in a short period of time? ”

Charlie and Halleha smiled with dazzling eyes: "Captain, we have brought the production line to the ship, and specially found two ships as production workshops!" At the rate of producing four guns per day, by the time we reach the Ming Dynasty, nearly one-third of the ships will be able to be equipped with this new type of artillery! ”

Third? That is, my previous main fleet can all be reloaded! I couldn't help but get excited. With this one-third of the elite forces, even in the face of enemy forces that are several times larger than us, I am just as confident that I will completely send them to the bottom of the sea!

"It's just ......" Charlie said in a low voice: "Captain, the cost of such a large-scale refitting is not low, what channel do we use to make money back?" ”

I pouted, "Yo! Are the tech departments starting to think about smiles? Good! That's a good thing. But I want to say two things, first, not everything can be measured by money, and second, there must be input and output! So from now on, all you need to do is produce new gear at full speed, and I'll figure out the rest! ”
