Chapter 115: Dragonbone (7, add more to SX Ashes)
If you haven't been to the shipyards and docks of the City of Dawn.
It is impossible to imagine how tall and big a super shipyard covering an area of more than 10 football fields is, and it is impossible to believe that a mere city of light should build such a large shipyard.
There are 2,000 troops stationed here, and they don't belong to any legion, their duty is to guard the shipyard, of course, these 2,000 people also have to take care of the dock three kilometers away, if something happens, the minotaur and garrison of Rainbow Lake can also come to support immediately.
Directly south of the City of Dawn, there are no golden sandy beaches, only hard reefs, much higher than sea level.
Due to the geographical location, the sea is usually calm, and storms are rarely seen.
However, it is in the subtropics, and it is on the edge of the coastline, so it must rain.
As soon as William entered the wall through the gates, the sky above him had already darkened.
When he saw that the rain was about to fall, he patted the bear on the ass and told him to follow the guards to shelter from the rain, and he made his way to the largest shipbuilding room in the shipyard.
As soon as he walked in, William couldn't help but look up at his super battleship, the Dawn.
That's right.
The three-deck, three-masted galleon battleship in front of him, the whole thing is black and silver, it is his super battleship.
With a length of 121 meters and a width of 32 meters, the ship can directly carry a regiment on short distances and 1,200 people on long distances.
The deck and hull were mostly made of golden-quality black ironwood blended with Mithril, and the entire hull of the ship was almost pitch black with a hint of silver.
In addition to the wind navigation without sails, the second sailing power source is 99 magic energy crystals, and the estimated speed is within 180 nautical miles ~ 260 nautical miles per hour.
There are 108 gun embrasures on each side of the hull.
After all, there is gunpowder in this world, and there is also the profession of gunsmith......
In particular, the magic energy cannon is too high-end, except for a few forces such as the powerful Human Empire and the Elven Kingdom, others do not have it at all.
However, because the goblins and dwarves have developed artillery, it can also be regarded as supplementing some of the offensive and defensive combat power of the Grand Duchy and the kingdom, and it can be regarded as a strategic weapon in the middle of the game of the gods.
And saltpeter veins are also classified as national resources, and there is basically no possibility of circulation.
"Fortunately, it's only version 1.0, and fortunately, it's only a novice village, otherwise if the Principality of Steel and the Principality of Black Rock have artillery, then Dawning City will not have any chance of development at all." William sighed.
Dawning City is not defenseless in the face of artillery.
But that would require a stronger wall, and how could William have a magician enchanting the city wall as a whole now?
Going to PY Mexis?
How could it be, this big guy would definitely not do it, and he didn't want to sell his body yet......
Fortunately, the area south of the city of dawn belongs to the super ore veins on the legendary continent, and the saltpeter veins are naturally not a problem, but it is a pity that the dwarves brought by Odom have no inheritance of making artillery and gunpowder at all, and even if they existed before, they have long been lost now.
Therefore, these 108 cannon ports can only be used as arrows.
But this is also a helpless move, William has not found a gunsmith so far, after all, this is a hidden profession, rare, but really fierce.
Then.
A middle-aged elf in a silver-gray magic robe, William raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Andrew, looking at the appearance of the Dawn, it seems that it is about to be completed?" ”
"I've seen my lord." Andrew is the court shipbuilder of the Moonlight Elf, a treasure of the grandmaster level, and a bull fork character who can build epic warships.
And the strategic thing such as a battleship, unlike equipment, is not classified, an epic battleship is an epic battleship, even in the human empire, this thing is a treasure.
Otherwise, how could he spend such a big price on William, all the resources added together, it would be hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and he could build half a set of medium-level legendary equipment, okay......
It can even be said that it is not so easy for the human empire to build such warships.
Because shipbuilders are a problem, materials are a problem, and more importantly, the human countries of the legendary continent generally do not invest much in the navigation industry.
Andrew is a level 56 wood magician, his sub-profession is far more important than the main profession, and his main profession is mostly cultivated to assist the sub-profession, otherwise Andrew, who is already hundreds of years old, cannot only have such a low level.
"My lord, how can it be as simple as you say!" Andrew let out a long sigh: "You said let's go all out to build the hull frame, and use whatever is best."
So we chose the most suitable black iron tree for shipbuilding in the Black Leaf Forest......
After we bought the precious Black Iron Tree, we continued to enchant, process, and blast it with magic, and finally incorporated so much Mithril into it, and then enchanted it again and assembled it......
But the frame worn by this ship is too strong, it is far beyond my control, and now it is not something that ordinary keels can withstand. ”
"Keel?" William smiled mysteriously, it seemed that Andrew and the others didn't know about his dragon slaying.
So he told the shipyard workers to get out of the way, and Andrew and the other shipbuilders stepped back to the sides.
Then, he waved his hand......
A fire dragon corpse more than ten meters long filled everyone's eyeballs out of thin air!
"Dragon !!"
"Oh my God, dragon, is this a dragon?"
"Where did the dragon come from, he died?"
Andrew ignored the shouts of the others, he walked over to the dragon's corpse in disbelief, and stroked the broken dragon scales with his hands, fiddling with the dragon's eyelids, and even the mouth and teeth......
Subsequently.
Andrew swallowed, his two pointed ears were a little soft, and he said in confusion: "My lord, did you slay the dragon?" ”
"Fortunately, I accidentally killed the fire dragon in the East China Sea Snow Mountain." William shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
As soon as this statement came out.
The whole shipyard is going to be in a mess.
All the shipbuilders got down on one knee and congratulated the lord with adoration on becoming a dragon slayer!
Andrew was in a trance for a while, he just wanted to kneel on one knee, but was helped up by William: "121-meter captain, this fire dragon is still too small, do you have a way to fuse all the keels together, plus some rare materials, and make it the keel of a battleship." ”
"Yes, surely, but more Mithril is needed." Andrew's eyes were red at this time, and he wanted to swallow the fire dragon in one go.
His eyes were confused, as if he was thinking about something, but he kept saying: "If the adults don't want this pair of wings, I can still make it into a sail, do you want dragon scales, dragon blood, dragon crystal ......"
"Ahem, I want to ...... everything but the keel," William hurriedly stopped him from daydreaming.
Andrew came back to his senses and already understood that the dragon blood dragon crystal or something, must have let William put it away, he was indeed a little too greedy.
William expressed respect for Andrew's scientific spirit, the Dawn is important, but other things about this dragon are also important, he can only shrug his shoulders: "I can only give you the keel, all you need to do is take out all the keel."
However, the dragon wings are too thick, how to make sails? ”
"It's too thick, and there's a thick layer of scales, which must be heavy, but you didn't think about it, my lord, dragon wings are dragon wings after all, and they are magical materials.
When the dragon stirs its wings, it does not rely lightly on the power of the dragon's wings.
Instead, the dragon wings themselves use the power of the wind to make the dragon fly easily, so when the dragon wings touch the wind element, they will become extremely light.
So I just need to lengthen the dragon wings from thin and lengthened, and after some enchantment, etc., I can turn them into super high-quality sails, and the defense will be extremely strong, far from being comparable to other sails. Andrew looked at the dragon's corpse and couldn't help but fumble for it, like a child touching a newly bought toy.
William suddenly smiled: "Then what are you waiting for, the bones and wings of this dragon are all yours, and everything else is left to me intact." ”
"Really?"
"Anduru, I believe in you." William patted him on the shoulder very solemnly.
All of a sudden.
Andrew's eyes sparkled, as if he had seen a new life, more like he had discovered his calling.
So, he threw the magic robe aside, carried the dagger and shouted: "It's time to start, everyone will give me a hand, I will personally divide the body of this fire dragon, which guy dares to steal a trace of flesh from the fire dragon, I promise to sink him to the bottom of the sea!" ”
