Chapter 16: Out to Sea
After confirming Ryuji's 'identity', the old captain was much more relieved, he had been there all the time worried that he had obtained a privateer's license, but the empress would not arrange for someone to supervise him.
The old captain understood very well that the empress was in the means of domestic control.
If there is no one to supervise them, then there is a good chance that they will appear on the queen's target.
The old captain didn't want to play halfway through the game, and he didn't get anything, and when he came back, he was killed as a pirate.
Now that the identity of Liu Zhi has been confirmed, then the situation is fine, and now it seems that Liu Zhi is a means to look more and more like the empress.
He should be a member of MI6, and only a person from MI6 can get comprehensive and unpaid help when completing the task.
The shipbuilder who came over to help Ryuji deal with the Death Star must have been like that too.
What got the blueprints from a friend, this should be some intelligence that MI6 got it.
And to deal with the ship in a short period of time, it was completely to give Liu Zhi a reasonable identity, a shipbuilder.
The most important point is that the pocket watch that Ryuji hid was seen by the old captain, and it was the standard configuration of MI6.
The old captain glanced at the pocket watch in Ryuji's arms, and then glanced at the staff officer.
The staff officer nodded affirmatively.
The movements between the old captain and the staff officer, Liu Zhi saw it, but Liu Zhi didn't understand the old captain's thoughts, and thought that the staff officer and the old captain were judging whether the ship could be used.
After visiting the entire Death Star ship, the old captain nodded in satisfaction.
"Yes, this boat has done its best, and it is also very convenient for us to operate, and there is no problem with this boat."
After that, the old captain took over all the work of the Death Star ship, and arranged for his men to take their places.
It's just that his calculations are still a little wrong, the subordinates he recruited are recruited according to the dreadnought, and the wheel captain in charge of the power source has only hired three, but the Death Star ship needs a total of four wheel captains here, and now he needs to find another one.
In addition, there are different supplies to be prepared here, and at first the old captain and their plans were ready, but now it seems that they still need to make some adjustments.
In addition, the main power compartment that was occupied by one more place will naturally have fewer formal cabins, and the old captain has to give up some cabins, so he will arrange all the people.
It took another two days for the old captain and his men to deal with the Death Star ship.
They didn't choose any auspicious time, and after loading everything on the ship, they went straight to sea.
After all, the old captain had spent too much time on the Death Star ship, and if they didn't go to sea, they didn't expect much time.
After leaving for sea, Ryuji did not attend the meeting of the old captain, but was curious to see how the ship was run.
Although this ship was transformed step by step by Yanagi, it is only now that Yanagi understands that this kind of ship is actually the product of a compromise between the technology tree and the rules of this world.
This tech tree has been clicked on the spaceship, but the rules of this game world are still the Age of Discovery.
So this kind of boat, which looks like a spaceship, can only fly close to the surface of the sea and cannot go more than a meter above the ground.
At the same time, the air flow emitted from the anti-gravity jet hole will cause great damage to the ground, so the major countries are not allowed to walk on land, but there is no such thing as land sailing on the ground.
As the ship flew to the surface, Ryuji saw that the anti-gravity blowholes on both sides of the Death Star ship spewed air downwards, stirring up a large amount of seawater, which even splashed onto the ship.
From this point, Yanagi also understood why this type of ship would be fully enclosed.
While Ryuji was there to observe how the ship was running, the crew of the ship was not surprised.
In their opinion, Ryuji was the shipbuilder of the ship, and now that the ship had just gone to sea, Ryuji was observing the operation of the ship.
He didn't bother Ryuji with these crew members, but just went about his business seriously there.
Liu Zhi was very serious about checking the operation of the Death Star ship, and he found that it was a spaceship because of the rules of the game world, although the whole thing seemed to have nothing to do with the ship, but because of the rules, his shipbuilder strength still had a certain impact on the ship.
Ryuji suspects that if he builds a ship from scratch from the beginning, instead of directly renovating the empty Death Star ship, maybe this Death Star ship will become a transcendent-class warship.
It won't be like this, Liu Zhi stood here and watched for a long time, but he didn't understand anything.
Just as Ryuji shook his head, a sailor appeared behind him.
"Mr. Sandru, the captain is calling you."
Ryuji turned his head to look at the sailors, "Aren't they in a meeting?" How could you call me over. ”
"It seems that the staff officer said that you should join us in the meeting."
The sailor replied with some uncertainty.
Liu Zhi frowned, he had actually felt it in the past two days, the old captain and the staff officers had rejected Liu Zhi.
Although it wasn't obvious to him, Ryuji could feel it as if they were always keeping themselves from knowing something important.
For example, this time, the old captain, where they are going and what is the goal.
Ryuji vaguely heard that the old captain had inquired about a hidden route, which was a golden route belonging to the Sida Empire.
In the previous naval battles, the Eagle Kingdom has been looking for this route, but because the Sida Empire has been operating this route for many years, it has not been exposed, and only the fleet of the Sida Empire knows about it.
Liu Zhi guessed that the reason why the Empress of the Eagle Kingdom would issue a privateer permit to go out was for this golden route.
Even if you can't get it, it's good to destroy this golden route.
But the old captain has always hidden his intentions, and it has been a while since he went to sea, and Liu Zhi did not tell Liu Zhi where the ship was going.
He could only tell where he was by the angle of the sun rising in the east and setting in the west.
Now the old captain has called Ryuji over, what is this for?
With such doubts, Ryuji followed the sailor to the large conference room behind the bridge.
This is the staff officer's workshop, and it is also the place where meetings and documents are processed during normal times.
As soon as he entered the house, Ryuji saw the old captain, staff officer, and another crew member sitting there.
In front of them was an iron sand table with a map of the nearby coastline and ocean currents.
After seeing Liu Zhi come in, the old captain looked up at Liu Zhi and said, "Sandru, where do you say we are going next?" ”
Yanagi O(∩_∩)O Ha!
