Chapter 350: The Four Alliances Pull Together
The sun had just risen on the sea, and finally saw the shadow of the land on the seemingly boundless sea level, Fang Chuanxin couldn't help but laugh, when he passed the Ninghai division patrolling in the outer harbor, Fang Chuanxin saluted them, and entered the inner harbor, the port of the entire Ninghai County has become very noisy and lively, at a glance, I saw countless ships, masts like forests, fishing boats, cargo ships and passenger ships moving slowly in the inner harbor, thousands of NPCs unloading goods at the wharf, merchants and passengers coming and going.
Fang Chuanxin slowed down the speed of the warship, found a vacant seat and parked the warship on the edge of the dock, there are too many ships in the port, such as Fang Chuanxin, this warship is more huge, and there are not a few giant ships with a more majestic appearance, so it is not eye-catching, maybe some players will not feel a little surprised when they see an NPC sailor fight on this warship, but they will not imagine too much.
Fang Chuanxin just got off the boat, and the dock officials in Ninghai County immediately came to the door, charged him a berthing fee, and asked if he wanted to buy a berth.
Fang Chuanxin had to say that it was really expensive, and asked if there was any business of repairing ships, but the charges made him staggered again, these NPCs are the reincarnation of black merchants, and if a 78% intact warship is to be repaired to the best condition, it will cost 98 gold.
"The important areas of your ship are in good condition, and all you need to do is repair the deck, masts, fences and some infrastructure in the cabin, and you only need to need a little maintenance, so it doesn't have to be expensive......"
The dock official said, Fang Chuanxin was about to cry, there is a way that it is easy to buy a car and difficult to maintain a car, this warship is really not something that ordinary people can afford to play, if you play a few more times in the stormy and rough area, the ship will be repaired until it goes bankrupt.
Wave your hands, don't repair it, but the helmsman needs to be hired, and the sailors need to be hired, the former can free his own hands, as a distinguished captain, you can't keep standing in the wheelhouse for a day, and the latter can increase some speed, and at the same time, if you encounter an enemy, you can protect the ship, these are all necessary.
With careful calculations and the most basic staffing, Fang Chuanxin first left the warship at the dock, and the South Key Islands were temporarily gone, the five islands there had all been captured by the Japanese Invaders, and his title of island owner had disappeared, and now he had an achievement: "Exiled Island Master", and thus got a task: recovering the island and annexing.
There are a total of four emails, which are from Imperial State, Water Dragon Yin, Hanjiang City, and Wanli Kill.
The content of the email message is similar, alleging that the Alliance is willing to help him expel the Japanese in the South Keys, provided that Fang Chuanxin can return to the Alliance after recovering the South Reef Islands, and use the South Reef Islands as a branch of the Alliance, and work together to dominate the industry.
Players who participated in the battle of the four alliances in the world, Fang Chuanxin was not the first in the game.
As early as when he was in Luoyang, Fang Chuanxin had heard NPCs say one thing at the banquet of the God of Wealth Chamber of Commerce, that is, about the competition for Bailuzhou, and Bailuzhou was divided into rudders as an alliance and caused a scuffle among the major forces.
At that time, there were countless sects participating in the competition for Bailuzhou, of course, there were players from their respective sects, among which the most powerful ones belonged to the Imperial Sword Villa and the Peacock Villa, which were very lively, and under the lively appearance, the root of it was actually the four alliances of the world wrestling behind the scenes, and the four leagues of the world were the Imperial State, the Water Dragon Yin, the Hanjiang City and the Ten Thousand Miles of Killing.
For example, Fang Chuanxin is located in Shenwei Fort, the beggar gang where the dream flower falls and knows a few things, Bo Shicheng's Shaolin, as well as Zhenwu, Tangmen and other eight major sects, the pursuit of martial arts progress and inheritance, unwilling to set foot in the world of the world, does not belong to the four alliances of the world, but in addition to the eight major sects there are some neutral sects, countless large and small gangs in the rivers and lakes, each attached to one of the four alliances, the relationship between the four alliances is more complicated, there is cooperation and confrontation, different ways of playing, the position is also different, in daily activities, the players of the four alliances can be close brothers, And in the battle of the alliance, it may be an enemy who does not share the sky.
And in the Egret Continent, the game was turned upside down, at that time the player was only a supporting role, the real protagonist was the NPC master of each major sect, and the characters of the heavenly list appeared, and finally it was Hanjiang City that occupied Egret Continent, in the sect of the Hanjiang City Alliance, there were some players who took the lead in enjoying the benefits of the victory of the alliance battle, and came into contact with this part of the gameplay before others:
For example, the battle for the alliance, as the name suggests, is to participate in the competition and protection of the alliance's territory and expand the alliance's territory.
For example, there is also the construction of the alliance, the construction of a dart game can increase the income of the league's players, the construction of a tavern can listen to the news of the assassination of the backbone of the enemy alliance, the construction of a ruyi workshop can make higher-level equipment, and the construction of a lumber mill can increase the output of the alliance's resources...... There are more than 20 kinds of functional buildings in the alliance, and more than 100 kinds of personalized solutions can be built with reasonable collocation.
Of course, these contents, before the player really becomes the owner of the alliance territory, can not participate in decision-making, can only passively participate in the design of the NPC and enjoy some benefits, just this, has made the first batch of Egret Continent rudder competition alliance players shout that the trip is worthwhile, and often send out some "show-off" posts on the forum, causing the envy of others.
At present, players who are one step ahead in the alliance gameplay have formed a new gang called the Anti-Heaven Alliance, which is very popular.
Interestingly, most of these players were born in some small sects, because the sects are directly attached to the four alliances in the world, which is considered to be the first month near the water, and can directly participate in the alliance battle.
Fang Chuanxin didn't expect that he didn't go to the Four Great Alliances, the Four Great Alliances found him first, and also made a gesture of wooing, it seems that the island owner of the South Reef Islands was not in vain.
Of course, the alliance does not have to join, neutral has a neutral way to play, joining will have a franchise to play, there are pros and cons, it is not good or bad, and then the alliance will also have to consider the factor of friends, saying that the alliance battle does not affect the friendship of friends, but if you are in two alliances, often make friends cry, this friendship is only afraid that it will be greatly discounted.
Moreover, I heard that after the player's contribution and prestige increase, he can be the leader of the alliance, which shows that merit is an important measure, and the alliance needs to send troops to "recover" the territory, and after recovering the territory with himself, joining the alliance must be a different concept. If you rely on others, eighty percent of them are not in their own hands.
This matter has to be decided and then moved, not in a hurry, besides, he is still very interested in getting a few more warships, if it is not for one person to drive two boats, why would he occupy one boat and return to Ninghai County? I'm going to have to stay a little longer in the South Key to see if there's a chance of getting a second boat.
Fang Chuanxin knew that he had grabbed a ship that could sail far away, and at present, it should be the only one, and it was a big step ahead of other players, which was a good opportunity, Brother Peng always told him that if he seized the opportunity, he should make good use of it, actively create better opportunities, make full use of small advantages, small advantages into big advantages, and big advantages into victories.
He calculated the time, the South Reef Islands were occupied by the Japanese Bandits, and there should also be four hours of protection time, just as Meishan Island was about to meet the counterattack of the Japanese Invaders, taking advantage of the past to fight a wave now, complete the original promise, and then go to the South Reef Islands to make another wave, the time is just right, and there is no delay at all.
Since he decided to make a fortune in silence, Fang Chuanxin kept a low profile, and did not drive his own warship, but went to wait for the cargo ship of the Giant Whale Gang to transport supplies.
Now the fleet of the Giant Whale Gang has successfully captured Meishan Island, the materials brought over in the early stage have been consumed, and the follow-up construction materials are being transported in batches, in order to deal with possible pirates or hostile forces on the way, sailors and bodyguards are being recruited, Fang Chuanxin is not a VIP of the Giant Whale Gang, there is no face of Bo Shicheng present, and other people's ships are not on the same as they want to.
The recruitment place is very conspicuous, with a long and huge banner hanging, and there are a lot of players gathered here, but because of the large number of people, NPCs also choose the best.
This is still the reason why there have been three batches of before.,It's exactly an hour a batch.,What stays here are the previous three batches of eliminated.γAnd the new players.,One trip to five ships.,Three cargo ships and two escort ships.,The warship recruits a little more players.,50 players.,And there are a lot of NPCs on the cargo ship.,Mainly it's cargo.,So the cargo ship recruits 20 players.,Add up to 160 players who can go on a trip.,The competition is still fierce.γ
When Fang Chuanxin passed, according to the usual practice, after a round of assessment, that is, a few tricks with the NPCs who recruited people, of course, in a parallel space, he easily passed the assessment and got excellent results, and was able to get on the 160 bodyguard list, and waited for about ten minutes, as soon as the time came, the fleet was about to start, and the NPCs shouted loudly for the bodyguards to board the ship, and after a few minutes of noisy, the fleet set off.
Fang Chuanxin boarded the warship, there are more players, from Ninghai County to Meishan Island, the whole journey time is close to more than 40 minutes, it can be said that it is relatively long, there is nothing to do, he began to sell the things dropped by the previous few bosses, Zheng Damu of the iron bone boat, and Matsuura Kazuki, the first mate of the warship, dropped two purple suits, a sailor knife, longer than a dagger, shorter than an ordinary sword, it is a special weapon, and the other is a katana, both weapons are mid-range purple weapons, such a grade of things is now the time to sell, it is easy to get rid of, A total of 34 gold was sold, because the weapon was more expensive than the armor.
And Matsuura Masao and the head of the fishing village of the other four islands are more stingy, in addition to bursting out a lot of sea fish, they dropped some shabby sailor suits, fish knives and other blue items, and now the blue quality equipment is slowly disliked by players, Fang Chuanxin sold it for a long time, and finally sold it at a reduced price.
There is only a boarding axe left in the hand, the blue quality, the attack power and attributes are not worth a sigh, only a little more than 50, the shape is also relatively rough, and the iron plate is only equipped with a wooden handle, but there is a special note: it is effective to cut the rigging and grid when boarding. In other words, it is considered an item with a special function.
Fang Chuanxin finished selling the bits and pieces in the bag, found a place to sit down and play with the boarding axe, and while talking to the nearby players, someone saw the boarding axe in his hand and asked curiously: "Immortal Xin, it turns out that you are still an expert in broadside battles." β
"Haha, I can't be called an expert, I have some experience." Anyway, it's Kan Dashan, and Fang Chuanxin doesn't mind bragging with others.
"It's amazing, it's really extraordinary." Others boasted, but they could hear that this must be polite, and Fang Chuanxin didn't care.
Everyone chats more casually, most people are like this, they will be a little surprised when they first see a little famous character, these players are like this when they first see Fang Chuanxin, and then it doesn't matter if they get in touch, but there are many friends and many ways, and a few polite words without losing anything are better than offending others.
Even the players who were fishing nearby turned back and interjected, and someone said, "In ship battles at sea, broadside battles are the last option, and if it is about power, the gunner is more powerful." β
"Gunner? How? And cannons? β
"There is definitely no artillery, but there are ballistas, there are trebuchets, especially trebuchets, which can smash people and ships, and they are terrible to death, and they are necessary for naval warfare."
"Don't think about it, trebuchets are all controlled by NPCs, and it's not our players' turn to intervene, so we can only be honest cannon fodder now, rushing to the side of the battle."
"Yes, but the broadside battle is too dangerous, and I still want to get a pair of water supporters, and if I fall into the water, I have a better chance of surviving."
Others agreed: "That's true, those NPCs that go into the water are like fish, if we face them underwater, we don't have the ability to fight back, it would be nice to have water." β
"This thing is not violent, but I heard that there is a special one on Qianglong Island, so I hope that this mission can get a pair."
"Who isn't, in the seaside activities, it is not necessary to have good weapons, water is the first need."
"Why, is there very little water?" Fang Chuanxin asked, when he was in Luoyang, there were four or five deputies in the One Piece Guild, and a team of people came to attack him through the water.
"I don't really have much, among the friends I know, there is only one, and I still do tasks."
"Well, everyone lacks this thing."
"Is that so?" Fang Chuan thought confidently, this time it was clearly a confrontation mission, and the players on the Wakou side estimated that there were more sources of water than here, and if they went into the water to do something with them, it seemed that they had to pay attention.
