Chapter 252: Shenzhou

In Poseidon Dock, you can strengthen the mast and sail for the small boat, increase the ship ramming angle, bow chain gun, swing gun, side heavy gun, stern gun, mortar, stern powder keg, ship armor and other equipment, all these renovation projects require a lot of money, and the Poseidon Dock can only be modified with ordinary class.

Warriors want to be more powerful, they can hunt and fight in the sea, and after obtaining various soul crystals and raw materials, let the Poseidon Dockyard help transform various more powerful armed parts of the ship, but for the captains who only have pool-level small weapons now, the changing sea is a very dangerous place, and if you want to get more powerful equipment than others, you must take more risks than others, and even destroy the ship if you are not careful.

After communicating with the machine spirit, Lin Zhou already had some ideas and plans for the future development of his small vessel ship, so he overdrafted to the Poseidon dock to carry out a targeted transformation of the small vessel ship.

The machine spirit's suggestion was to follow the speed route like the previous captain, which coincided with Lin Zhou's idea. After increasing the speed, not only can you save a lot of time on sea navigation, but once a naval battle occurs, you can also use its speed advantage to quickly bully the opponent's hull, and use his good collision angle to smash the opponent's ship armor to win the naval battle.

Lin Zhou overdrew a certain amount of money to increase the speed of the Shenzhou by one level, and after looking at the remaining amount, he increased the speed of the small vessel by one level again. With each level, the speed of the ship increases by about five percent from the base speed, and the Poseidon Dockyard can only help the ship increase twice at most. That is, about 10% of the speed, if you want to continue to increase the speed of the ship, you must let the sea god bless when you upgrade.

After going to sea, the fish caught by Lin Zhou and the equipment that were not used can be directly sold to the god of the sea god using the exchange function, but the purchase price of the god of the sea is only half of the price on the nearby island.

So far, Lin Zhou has overdrawn a total of 1,000 Poseidon coins. It's also the maximum amount he can overdraft right now.

After getting the harpoon and ramming horn, and changing the speed of the Shenzhou. The next target given to Lin Zhou by the machine spirit was an uninhabited island thirty nautical miles away: Crab Claw Island.

According to the information provided by the machine spirits, there is a large group of tiger sharks living there, and there may even be elite tiger sharks.

Hunting tiger sharks can obtain a lot of tiger shark meat and tiger shark bones. You can earn a lot of Poseidon coins by selling them. According to the machine spirit. It is enough for Shenzhou to pay the salaries of all sailors this month, as well as to pay off the overdraft line owed by Lin Zhou.

The soul crystals obtained from hunting tiger sharks, combined with materials such as fine iron, can be used to upgrade ordinary ship cannons to elite level. Only one of the two normal-level tiger sharks can probably hunt one soul crystal, while the elite-level tiger shark must have one soul crystal.

Tank-class vessels could initially be equipped with 16 broadside guns, each with eight guns. The side guns in the sea area of the Poseidon Enchantment are divided into long guns and short guns, the long guns are used for long-distance attacks, and the turrets can rotate to find targets, and the short guns are used for close-range bombardment, the short guns have strong attack power, and the corresponding recoil is also very strong, and the turret is fixed and cannot be rotated and adjusted.

The armor, cannons, ramming angles and other combat equipment of the vessel ship are divided into ordinary level, elite level, master level, grandmaster level, epic level, legendary level and god level, Lin Zhou's previous ramming angle is the elite level of the weapon ship ramming angle equipment, and now he is going to Crab Claw Island to obtain the soul crystal of the elite tiger shark, and condense and upgrade the elite-level side gun for his weapon ship.

The power of the elite-level broadside guns is basically twice the power of the ordinary broadside guns, and the Poseidon Dockyard can only equip the ship with ordinary-level gunwales, and the elite-level and above equipment needs to hunt specific fish and sea beasts in the sea to obtain soul crystals, and then cooperate with other materials to upgrade in the Poseidon. If Lin Zhou can have a few elite-level weapon weapons, it will greatly improve the Shenzhou's naval combat capabilities.

When it was already dark after all this, Lin Zhou and his sailors rested on Huludao for the night, and after eating the next morning, they came to the dock together, ready to set anchor and sail away.

When he came to the dock to board the ship and set off, Lin Zhou was once again harassed by the Quint Boat Club, who asked him to sign a contract to join the club. Lin Zhou refused again, and of course, his indifferent attitude was once again threatened by several recruiters of the Quint Ship Club, saying that his Shenzhou was already wanted by the Quint Ship Club, and as long as he went to sea, he would not be able to come back.

Lin Zhou was a little annoyed, sometimes he just didn't recruit anyone to provoke anyone, and some enemy troubles would appear out of thin air, but he was never a person who was afraid of trouble, even if the Quint ship would repeatedly threaten, he still carried out the preparations for going to sea in an orderly manner.

......

The title of the captain is related to the level of the boat owned: the ship is divided into pool class, river class, river class, sea class and ocean class, and the corresponding captain's titles are the trainee captain, the captain, the big captain, the king of the ship and the god of the ship.

Although the ship can be driven by wind and soul power, and other operations such as raising the sails, lowering the sails, stopping the ship, and lifting anchor can also be carried out through the captain's mind and the machine spirit, the crew and sailors can also do these things, but they need to be slower, and treasure hunting, fishing, loading and unloading goods, and fortress warfare, land warfare, etc., also need the help of manpower. In non-emergency naval battles, these sailors can be allowed to control the ship, and the captain will take back control at critical moments, making the control more convenient.

After completing the supply in the port and purchasing some of the materials needed to upgrade the ship's cannons, Lin Zhou took fifty sailors to the seaside, boarded the ship with them, lifted anchor and hoisted the sails, and officially began his journey of sea domination in the Poseidon Barrier.

The three big characters of 'Shenzhou' were engraved on the hull of Lin Zhou, and at the same time, a flag painted with the image of Shenzhou was also hung high on the mast, fully displayed under the blowing of the sea breeze.

The vicinity of Huludao is a controlled area, supervised by the sea god, and there are official warship patrols, so there can be no naval battles, and some indigenous ships and small boats that dare not go to sea are fishing in this area, wanting to accumulate enough initial funds to arm themselves and then explore farther away from the island.

The Shenzhou had its own goal, leaving Huludao and heading directly to Crab Claw Island.

Along the way, you can see that there are already many boats sailing on the sea, because Huludao belongs to the fully developed sea area, there is no unknown place nearby to explore, and the sea god has also protected the pool-level small vessel ships in this area, and does not allow the river level or above to attack the pool-level vessel ships in this vicinity, so Lin Zhou looked at it on the deck, and the sea was full of pool-level small vessels, but some of them had been cultivated to the level of the second and third orders.

The cultivation of the vessel is divided into pool level, river level, river level, sea level and ocean level, and each level is divided into ten levels. Sailing and fighting on the sea was the only way for the cultivator ship to advance to the advanced level. The captain can choose to use the blessing of the god of the sea for the thickness of the ship's armor, or to increase the movement speed of the ship, or the attack power bonus of the cannon fire, or even the capacity, tonnage, and ability to resist storms and waves. Different directions can create different directions for the development of the ship.

The cultivation and promotion of the weapon ship is the same as the cultivation of human warriors, the further back it is, the more difficult it is, and the initial stage is still very easy, and the most important and fastest way to upgrade the weapon ship is to fight, the battle between sea beasts, the battle between pirates, and the battle between other weapons and ships...... You can accumulate rich experience in naval warfare, cultivate and improve your soul energy, so that the ship can be recognized by the sea god, advance faster, and become stronger faster.

After the advancement is successful, the god will send blessings to the ship, and at the same time mark the hull of the ship, and other ships will get close to a certain extent, or take a telescope to see these marks in the distance, you can know how many levels this ship is.

The hull of the Chi-class ship is just large enough to sail on the sea surface of the sea god, but if the wind and waves are too high, the captain will probably capsize if he is not careful.

Today, the wind on the sea is not too big, the waves are not high, and the highest waves are only three or four meters, plus the assistance of the legendary ship Shenzhou, so he is confident that there will be no problem in successfully sailing to Crab Claw Island. Once there, according to the machine spirit, he only needs to use the harpoon to kill the tiger sharks, and he can get a lot of tiger shark meat, bones, and soul crystals.

Lin Zhou still had one more thing to do before rushing to Crab Claw Island, that is, to take local materials from the offshore sea and get sixteen ordinary gunwales for his Shenzhou for free, and after getting the Tiger Shark Soul Crystal, he could use other materials to upgrade these ordinary gunwales to the elite level in the Poseidon Dockyard.

How do I get it for free?

Look for the Quint Boat Club! The Boat Club that will trouble him as soon as he comes.

There's a very old boat song that says that......

There is no food, no clothing, the enemy has sent it to us, there are no guns, there are no cannons, the enemy has made us!

Well, that's pretty much what it means.

If two ships encounter and fight at sea, and one ship actively attacks the other, it will be marked as a pirate by the god of the sea and increased to the wanted level of the sea. Once a ship is marked as a pirate, it can no longer return to the main island like Huludao.

If the attacked ship destroys the opponent's ship in turn, it will not increase the wanted level of the sea, and the ship marked as a pirate wanted ship can only reduce its wanted level if it has been at sea for enough time or has hunted a Kraken or other pirate ship. (To be continued......)
