CH.8 The Jedi Strikes Back
Donk rekindled his hope and clicked on the [Seafarer] column, trying to find something that would help.
Junior Seafarers: They are a group of sea rookies who are active on small and medium-sized boats and need to sail alongside you, growing together in the process.
Captain, gunner, archer, musketeer, lookout, fisherman, craftsman, boatswain, merchant, doctor, swordsman, gladiator, priest, alchemist......
Donk was dazzled at once, there were quite a few types of seafarers that could be recruited, and there were many more below, some of them were necessary talents for sailing, and the other part was fantasy professions. He was in dire need of fire support, so he clicked into the Musketeers section and three Musketeers popped up for recruitment, all with different stats.
Musketeer: The musket is an epoch-making product that changed the world's mode of warfare and set off the prelude to the era of hot weapons. Despite its slow rate of fire, the musket is capable of destroying all armor, even if enemies are wearing chain mail made by dwarven craftsmen.
This is the system's introduction to the Musketeer, who randomly named a Musketeer.
Name: Bertrand Seymour.
Class: Musketeer (1st Order).
Race: Elves (they are graceful forest walkers, chanting songs in praise of the gods under the moon, and their long lives have made them idyllic and picturesque, but they are unambiguous when they take up arms).
Title: None.
Special surname: gentlemanly demeanor (elegant conversation and demeanor can win the favor of female surnames, female surname favorability +1, when dealing with aristocratic politicians, it also has the same effect, noble favorability +1) Elven race (this is a race full of superior surnames, shooting surname weapon +2, elemental affinity +2, physical condition is permanently healthy, lifespan is three to five times that of humans, defense -2)
Accuracy: ★★ (This means that their eyesight is in harmony with their body, and this value affects their reload speed and chance of hitting enemies)
Reload speed: ★ (As a pioneer of hot weapons, flintlock pistols are still in the backward stage, and it takes more than ten seconds to several minutes to reload)
Equipment: Normal - Flintlock Pistol (rate of fire 1 round/min, range 100 yards, attack power depends on hit area)
Skill: Heart-Eye Shooting (Use your heart to find the enemy's position, and devote yourself to a single hit, and the hit rate can be increased to 90%)
Language: The lingua franca of the Light Alliance. Modern Elf.
Physical condition: Healthy.
Bounty Amount: 0
Loyalty: 90 (Seafarers will be absolutely loyal to you at the beginning of recruitment, please be bold and give them orders)
Required bonus points: 350.
Maintenance fee: 50 silver/month.
Donk guessed that if he did recruit one of these musketeers, he might be able to kill that Kedar with a single shot, but the number of points needed was terrifying, more than he needed to level up.
The other two musketeers didn't have to look at it, they were certainly not far behind. With the exception of the musketeers, the rest of the seafarers generally required a high number of points, and could not quench their thirst.
Although these seafarers are powerful living forces, they can only draw cakes to satisfy their hunger, and Donk can't afford to pay the corresponding reward points.
In desperation, he could only put his last hope on the sailors.
Sailor: On a ship, they are the most basic staff, and their status is only higher than that of slaves. But it also proved that they were the most meritorious people in sailing, whether it was pulling the boat to shore when docking, or engaging in broadside battles with the enemy.
【Grappling Sailor】【White Blade Sailor】【Paddle Sailor】
Donk didn't expect that there were so many kinds of sailors, and he clicked in to see that sailors needed very few points. The grappling hook sailor needs 4 points, the whiteblade sailor needs 3 points, and the paddle sailor needs 2 points.
His spirit was lifted at this time, although his water surname was good, but after holding it for so long, it was almost to the limit, so he had to speed up his work.
He has 44 bonus points, which is really tight, and after a little thought, he ordered two grappling hook sailors, and the rest recruited 12 white-knuckle sailors!
White-Bladed Sailors: They are adept at using a variety of weapons in white-knuckle combat, and they are as cruel and ruthless as wild beasts, and will take people's lives mercilessly.
Combat effectiveness: ★
Skill: None
Number of people: 12
Loyalty: 80 (Whiteblade Sailors are more untamable than other sailors, they will have a slightly lower initial loyalty, but will still obey the captain)
Fatigue Value: 100 (Newly recruited sailors will start with full stamina)
Points required: 4.
Maintenance fee: 10 credits/person/month.
Donk adjusted the number of people, clicked OK, and waited quietly for the group of sailors to appear, at first there was no movement, only a few seconds later, there were a few muffled sounds in the sea. When he looked down, he saw a dozen people swimming up from the bottom of the sea, all murderous, as if someone owed them money.
More than a dozen fierce men suddenly appeared in the sea, and the scene was spectacular, but seeing them, Tang Ke felt cordial in his heart.
The new sailors fluttered skillfully, holding their breath and surrounding the captain in their minds, and there were only two messages in their memory, one, they were sailors, two, and Donk was the captain!
Donk pointed to the surface of the sea and said only one word.
"Kill!"
The sea drowned out his voice and filled his mouth with salty taste.
The new sailors flashed like moths to the flames, and they surfaced one after another. Donk then peeked out of the sea and took two sharp breaths of air, the pressure in his lungs was relieved at once, and he poured a cool breath into his stomach.
"On this boat, except for the one with a strip of cloth tied on his head, the rest are all enemies, and there is no one left." Donk pointed to the black toad's pirate ship, and then ordered, "The two with grappling hooks tied to their waists will go up first, and the rest will go up next." ”
The new sailors are the best cannon fodder in the world, they have no objections, and they love to rob ships and kill people.
The two hook-throwing sailors surfaced, rounded the rope in their hands, and threw it upward, grabbing the side of the ship with unmistakable accuracy, and the rope was stretched straight.
Because the combat effectiveness of the grappling hook sailors was inferior to that of the white-knuckled sailors, it was the white-edged sailors who went up first, and their actions were discovered by the pirates, and the white-bladed sailors were not afraid of death, and while crawling, they fought the enemies above with their one-handed clutches.
It took one of the people on Donk's side to reach the top, and after one person on it protected the position of the grappling hook, the rest climbed up like monkeys. Donk finally finalized, and when he went up, his own people had already formed a defensive circle, and it was relatively safe.
He glanced and saw that most of the previous sailors had died heroically, and only five wounded were still standing up against the siege of the black toad pirates.
"Let's kill and save those brothers!" Donk pointed at the survivors and yelled, his scimitar was long gone, so he had to pick up a pirate's axe on the ground and use it. This weapon can be slashed and stabbed, and it is more ferocious than a sword, but it suffers more heavily.
Kedar was organizing the pirates to storm the remnants of the few people, and when he heard the report of the little pirate next to him, he looked at Donk's side, and sighed, and couldn't help frowning. Their side had blasted Donk's boat into sawdust, and it had been proven to be empty.
Where did this wave of people come from?
Suspicious, Kedar viciously ordered his men to attack Donk and them, and let the Spitter Frog take the lead with shotshots.
Knowing that his side was outnumbered, Donk secretly decided that only if he kept earning bonus points, and then could he recruit sailors in a steady stream, and once he could tie with the black toad's men, he would be able to attract the Mandela people to counterattack.
The spitting frog's scatterbomb attack was terrible, and the first person who bore the brunt was immediately bombarded and wounded, and as soon as they gritted their teeth, they rushed forward and scuffled with the black toad's people, so that the spit frog was afraid of hurting his accomplices, so he was afraid of hurting his accomplices, so he was afraid of getting scared.
Tang Ke was red-eyed, and the axe in his hand opened and closed, injuring five people in a row, killing three people, and dying a bloody man.
By the time they got up with the old sailors, there were eight of them left.
"Cover me!" With a loud shout, Donk pulled one of his sailors in front of him, and quickly sank into the system, using his consciousness to quickly recruit a new white-bladed sailor. He exited the system and went back into battle.
The pirate system has strict rules, and only Donk can get reward points for achieving piracy, and sailors don't count killing at all. During this period, he hacked a spit frog to death and got 10 bonus points, which is quite generous.
"You will pay for your stupidity!" As he shouted, Kedar shelled with his left arm, and the whistling shells knocked a sailor out of the boat, his life and death unknown.
"Victory belongs to Lao Tzu, and this ship is also Lao Tzu!" Tang Ke rose to the occasion, faintly having the strength of the heroes of Liangshan back then.
As he spoke, Tang Ke's newly recruited white-bladed sailors had already climbed up along the grappling hooks left on the side of the ship, and there were as many as fifteen of them!
