Back on Stater Island, Ethan first went to the guild to conduct some value assessments, including the Death Stone he brought back this time.

As he expected, the value of this death stone was very high, and the guild attached great importance to it, and was willing to buy Ethan's magic stone directly.

"The magic stone can be sold to you, and I want a brand new ship that meets my requirements exactly. ”

This request did not come as a surprise to the guild, and it also met their needs for training good adventurers, so the guild happily agreed, and made an excellent offer - as long as Ethan's request was made, the shipyard would be satisfied if it could do it.

And then based on the final price of the final ship, how much more supplies would need to be compensated to Ethan? Yes, this Death Stone is worth so much money, and it can be exchanged for a lot of supplies in addition to a completely new ship.

With the guild in charge of guaranteeing and providing all the materials needed for shipbuilding, the shipyard specially sent a special reception staff to be responsible for contacting Ethan.

"Hello, my name is Pete. In the next period of time, I will be responsible for contacting you, and at the same time, after customizing the new ship, any additional requirements can also be put forward with me, and then I will reflect to the shipyard. ”

"Hello, my name is Ethan. ”

They had previously signed an agreement of intent, and Ethan would need to determine the basic type of his new ship, and then add or remove facilities from that framework.

Looking at a pile of models in a dedicated display room, Ethan noticed that there were many ship types he had never seen before, some of which were labeled 'in stock' and others as 'not in stock'.

"Among them, these signs are in stock, that is, some of the more common ship types today, and the shipyard will prepare a few ships for a long time to facilitate the purchase of customers who are in urgent need. ”

There is no need to explain if there is no inventory, it proves that there are not many people who usually choose these ship types, and in order to avoid piling up in the warehouse and becoming scrap, they will not be manufactured in advance, and they will only be specially manufactured when someone asks for it.

"That's the basic type of boat. ”

Ethan chose a more versatile ship type, similar to the structure of the Galen-type sailing ship he knew in his previous life, and the size was basically the same, belonging to a large sail warship.

With three decks and a large displacement, this type of boat has a huge interior space, and Ethan can make various special modifications according to his needs.

The only trouble is that this large sail warship has three masts, a mainsail and a variety of auxiliary sails, making it very cumbersome to handle, and it is not a ship that can be piloted by one or two people.

"By the way, I have a question about whether there is any technology that can be used to minimize the number of drivers. ”

Pete glanced at Ethan, this kind of request is not surprising, especially buyers of large ships will have similar doubts. After all, the population of the Sea of Calm is not particularly large, and the number of adventurers is limited, and even large teams can barely manage the number of people who can control a large sailing ship.

If you divide it carefully, including what combatants, gunners, etc., there are not many adventure teams in the entire Sea of Calm that can make up so many people.

This is also a big reason why large sail warships are rare in calm seas.

"In fact, we've made some optimizations to these large sailboats to keep the number of operators as low as possible...... By the way, how many crew members do you have?"

"This ......" Ethan touched his nose in embarrassment: "It's just me." ”

Pete was taken aback, and it didn't seem like Ethan was ready to recruit more people to board his ship, so was this an adventurer who was determined to take his own route?

This kind of adventurer is not very rare to see, but it is rare to mix so well that he even has to buy a large ship, and Pete has only seen this one in front of him after working in the shipyard for so many years.

"If that's the case...... Allow me to introduce our unique technology. Pete led Ethan to another blank table, where there was nothing, like an ordinary table: "A large sailing ship with magic stone technology as an aid." ”

Pete brushed lightly on the platform, and then a light rose from the ordinary platform, and a white three-dimensional image was formed.

Ethan's eyes widened, he didn't think there was such a technology hidden in the shipyard, this hologram reminded him of Tony's laboratory.

Later, Pete introduced him to what a sailboat with the help of magic stone technology would look like.

In general, it is still a Galen-type sail battleship, but this ship is equipped with special devices with magic stone technology as the core in many inconspicuous places.

For example, the magic stone stabilization device that makes the ship more stable, the water supply system that uses the water purification magic stone technology as the main body by pumping seawater, the kitchen facilities with fire and ice magic stones as the core technology, the storage warehouse that is specially reinforced and can even adjust the temperature for easy preservation, the bedroom, dining room and bathroom are completely personalized, and some cabins can be modified according to needs to become special function rooms that meet his requirements.

On top of that, the most important thing is that the entire ship can be controlled through a special magic stone console, which means that Ethan can completely drive the ship by himself.

"What does the console look like?"

"It's basically not much different from this one, it's mounted right next to the steering wheel, and you can adjust the specific settings of all the sails on the ship through the console, as well as all the magic stone cannons on the ship. ”

In order to make it easier for Ethan to understand, Pete also used this table to simulate the operation of the console, and Ethan had a more intuitive understanding of what a sailboat with magic stone technology to assist was like.

To put it simply, it's a bit like playing a video game, and the operation is still foolish, as long as you don't have a hole in your brain, you can easily control this Galen ship with a displacement of thousands of tons.

"Very good, just make it to this standard. ”

In addition to his proposal to transform an additional foundry workshop, this Galen ship using magic stone technology is exactly the ship he needs, and he originally considered using magic technology to transform a similar ship himself, but he didn't expect this world to have more perfect technology.

"I still don't know enough about magic stone technology, and there are still many secrets in this world. ”

From the magic stone armor before to the current sailboat using magic stone technology, he found that he didn't really understand the world, and now he was looking forward to what kind of world was on the other side of the stormy sea.

"If you buy such a boat, there are still a lot of problems that need to be solved. ”

"For example?"

"What level of magic stones do you need for the equipment above?"

Ethan understands that these devices are all about the same, and their functions are basically the same, but they are equipped with different magic stones, and the price is very different.

The best is of course to be able to use it until the day the ship is scrapped, but it has to be equipped with core-level magic stones, Ethan definitely can't afford it, so he can only settle for the second best thing and choose some worse ones, in this case, it will take into account the consumption and replacement of magic stones, and there will be some small differences in those equipment.

"It feels like it's high, medium, and low. ”

Ethan also noticed that Pete did not show all the magic stone techniques to himself, guessing that he had fully considered the amount of funds he had in his hands, and that they would not randomly display the skills that he could never afford to buy.

Not to mention anything else, the magic stone can make a shield, which he already knows, and he also used the ability of the magic stone to launch protective magic and use it on his own equipment, but Pete didn't mention the shield at all, in the final analysis, there is this kind of technology, and it is not what he consumes now.

The shield generator that can protect an entire ship can only be exchanged for at least another magic stone of the same grade as the Death Magic Stone.

"How long will it take to get this ship?"

"A month is enough, all of this equipment is in stock, and it only takes some time to install it on the ship. This also includes commissioning time, which will not be used for ten days if you install it alone. ”

The galleon sailing shipyard also has a stock of new boats that have just been built, and only a few modifications to the internal structure and facilities are needed to meet all of Ethan's needs.

"Good. ”

It's only a month, and he can wait until everything is done on the island, and leave directly in the new ship, during which time he can adjust his state well, and go straight to the stormy sea after going to sea.

"How many magic stone cannons do you need to equip?"

"How many more can I fit now?"

Pete mentally calculated the remaining funds of Ethan, and gave a very accurate number: "There are about ten doors on the left and right, and two doors on the bow." ”

This is the biggest limit, and after equipping it, Ethan doesn't have the money to buy enough magic stones to use as ammunition, but Ethan still wants the maximum number, and requires them to be configured on the second deck, usually hidden in the cabin.

"Magic stones can be re-obtained in the future, and they can even be replenished on the island, and cannons are not something that can be obtained anywhere. ”

In this way, in less than half a day, Ethan squandered all the money he had accumulated in the past two years, leaving only a small part to maintain his life for the next period of time, as well as to buy supplies when he went to sea.

Coming out of the shipyard, Ethan looked at the sunset that had sunset over the sea level, and felt as if it was a sign that his new life had come to an end, and when the sun rose tomorrow, his life would move towards a new chapter.

"Maybe it's a delusion?"

In any case, a new page will indeed be turned in his life. New ships and new adventures awaited him, and he began to look forward to such a new future.
