After Silo's death, it took Lear a lot of effort to clean up the remaining Fish-Man warriors.

For no other reason, his magic power was almost exhausted in the battle with the Holy Dragon, Silo and the Sea Serpent, and after the fight, he could only watch Ivo and Hag and others slowly grind those fish people to death.

In particular, those tall crocodile warriors caused a lot of trouble for Lear's men.

After they brandished the fan-shaped toothed scimitar in their hands to join the battle group, they instantly stopped the momentum of Haag and the others.

Haag single-handedly faced a crocodile warrior, but Tariq's side was in danger, and it wasn't until Guina joined that he was able to stabilize his decline.

However, there were as many as six crocodile warriors who fought into the crowd, and under their leadership, the fish-man warriors and krakens also became more and more courageous, and soon a hole was torn in the infantry ranks.

Blood splattered on both sides, howling and roaring one after another, and after entering the melee mode, the support that the shooters could provide became very limited, except for a few shooters with extremely high archery skills, such as Ivo, who were able to shoot accurately, and more shooters could only watch blankly.

Because they can't guarantee that their ranged attacks will hit the enemy.

Chaos arises from chaotic strife, while death and order are in the hands of the mage.

After Adela began casting spells, the chaotic battlefield quickly became orderly.

Yes, orderly slaughter.

She uses spells such as Slowness, Curse, Weakness, and Spirit Blessing to limit enemies and strengthen her own warriors, and although the crocodile warriors are very brave in the melee siege, each delay will leave a few terrifying blood wounds on the opponent's body.

The six-headed crocodile warriors were like six full blood troughs, splattering their blood through the crowd, and as the blood was lost faster and more quickly, their movements became slower and slower, and their roars were no longer heroic.

The infantry besieging the crocodile warriors are also very tacit, once the crocodile warriors enter a state of madness, they will immediately disperse, and then a thunderbolt or thunderbolt ice will fall on it, while the infantry who have not been taken care of will continue to keep the siege.

This was repeated several times, and the sudden battle finally came to an end when the crocodile in front of Tariq and Guina was scorched by the lightning bolt and his head was crushed by Tariq's subsequent mace.

There is nothing to describe in the rest of the endgame, and Lear's side, which has absolute numerical suppression, is completely engaged in a one-sided slaughter.

And these fish-people and sea monsters may not have figured out until they died, and this disaster that fell from the sky was only because Silo took an extra look in the crowd.

"Take them all back, and bring them to me when he wakes up. ”

Lear used his last mana to heal Kirk Sr. before heading back, his consumption was too great to make up for the loss of magic through meditation, and Kirk Sr. was obviously unconscious now and couldn't ask anything.

The tide rushed onto the beach, and corpses were swallowed into the darkness by the rolling waves.

............

Three days later, Lear took Jeremy and Landrig to meet Kirk Sr. in the side room of the council hall, where he saluted him with a pale face, and he did not refuse.

So far, he has lost dozens of brave warriors and has not received any valuable rewards, although he has completely destroyed the invading fishmen, he has lost the most important holy dragon to rely on, so of course he will not be in a good mood in the face of old Kirklier, but he still ordered the guards to bring the old man a seat.

"Say what you're worth. ”

Lear didn't beat around the bush to get straight to the point, and although the strange three-masted caught his eye, the rudiments of the Kerrick sailing ships that were ubiquitous in the Middle Ages of Discovery were not enough to make up for his loss.

Vague memories of the Kritch had come to Lear's mind from the first time he saw the three-masted ship, and he had always had the idea of building a larger warship to replace the current converted merchant ship, and he could toss it out himself if he was given time.

If Old Kirk's skills stop there, then he will really be very disappointed.

"My lord, my people and I used to be boatmen attached to the fish-man lord Schel. ”

Old Kirk also seemed to understand his current situation, and immediately replied 1510.

Lear was noncommittal, motioning for him to continue, a boatman was not worth enough to be hunted down by sea serpents and crocodile warriors.

"Over the years, I have gradually accumulated a lot of experience in building for Schanel, and I have increasingly discovered the shortcomings of the current ships in navigation, but the fishmen have never cared about the development of shipbuilding technology due to their own talent, and no matter how good the ships are, they are only used as a means of transporting supplies.

The accumulated knowledge and experience tormented me more and more, and I could not find a way to vent it, so I could only secretly pass on this knowledge to my grandson, but as I grew older, such teaching was far from satisfying me. ”

Saying this, Old Kirk glanced up at Lear's expression, he didn't know what kind of person he was facing, whether he would see him as a huge threat like Schelle, but just from the fact that the other party easily wiped out the hundreds of fishmen who were chasing them, the young man in front of him must be a decisive character.

Lear seemed to see the old Kirk's concern, and he nodded lightly in reassurance, and the latter continued.

"I secretly made some drawings, and secretly made a simple modification of an old sailing ship to confirm the idea in my mind, originally it was all done in secret, but I wanted to leave no regrets before I died, but I didn't want the news to leak out, and finally brought us a catastrophe.

Schell decided that we were a rebellion, and he sent troops to kill our family and arrest us, but I also knew that whether I did it or not, I would eventually die, just to give them an excuse to purge the half-bloods, which they would do every once in a while. ”

There was endless resentment and desolation in the eyes of Old Kirk, the half-breeds were the most dishonorable slaves on the sea, and in the eyes of the fish-men they were inferior to livestock.

Once upon a time, he also wanted to change his fate, but the bloody coercion of the Fish-People made the tribesmen lose the courage to resist, and as he grew older, Old Kirk also became disheartened.

"You're talking about the three-masted ship?"

Lear didn't care about what happened to the half-bloods, he didn't deserve any sympathy in his opinion that there must be something hateful about the depraved people, and he only cared about what old Kirk could bring him, whether it was enough to make up for his loss.

"Yes, sir. ”

Old Kirk could also hear that the young man in the seat did not want to hear him tell about the miserable situation of the half-blood, so he could only reply helplessly.

"This ship can only be regarded as a semi-finished product, oh no, it is not even a semi-finished product, because of the constraints of conditions and resources, I can only carry out practical modifications on this old ship abandoned in the depths of the dock, and it is still carried out secretly.

All of the materials I disassembled and assembled from the old ship bit by bit, and it should be considered a good scrap product, as it carried us on the seas for five days before we finally escaped the fish-people and came to your territory. ”

"What do you mean, given enough materials and manpower to build a ship that is far superior to this three-masted ship?"

It wasn't until this moment that Lear's eyes really lit up with some interest.

"Yes. ”

Hearing the anticipation in Lear's tone, Old Kirk puffed out his chest, the glint in his eyes was very familiar to Lear, it was the same intense confidence Jeremy had when he talked about artillery.

This is a look that only a veteran in a certain field can have.

"Tell me about it. ”

Lear sat up straight for the first time.

"Now the ships used by pirates or fishmen are basically sloops or two-masted oared sailboats, which are too poor in seaworthiness in the ocean, and extremely labor-intensive, and if they are simply equipped with masts or sails, they have to raise the bow and stern, which will lead to the easy to attract the wind when sailing, and it will also greatly increase the difficulty of maneuvering when the wind is against the wind. ”

When talking about the construction of the ship, Old Kirk was as strong as a decisive word, and he no longer had the restraint and fear he had just now, which also made Lear more confident in his words.

"I only have two requests, and you just have to tell me if I can do it. ”

Lear stood up and walked in front of Old Kirk, the constant fluctuations of magic emanating from his body formed a hidden coercion, causing the latter to stand up from his seat in awe.

"I'm going to build large warships that far surpass the existing ships in terms of seaworthiness and tonnage, and have guns with superior firepower, and there must be a balance between the two, and they must not affect each other, and they must not lower their standards because of other restrictions, and now you tell me that I can or cannot. ”

"My lord, what range do you want to have a displacement? And what is the weight performance of the gun? Without this data, I can't give you the answer you want. ”

At this point, the elder Kirk held on to the insistence of an old boatman, and he did not choose to blindly agree out of fear, which also made Lear look at him.

"Five hundred tons, the performance of the artillery will be later, and I will let Jeremy take you to see it. ”

"If there were no problems with the artillery, there would be no problems with the ships I built. ”

This time, Old Kirk gave an affirmative answer.

"Good. ”

Lear finally smiled.

"From now on, you will be the chief craftsman of my shipyard. ”
