Chapter 65: Ballista

Wang Lin didn't feel the strong salty smell of ordinary fishing boats. After thinking about it www.biquge.info I understood that this ship was for the monks to catch sea beasts, and sea beasts were not easy to catch, not to mention powerful, just in their home sea, even if the other party couldn't beat the hunting monks, it was still no problem to escape.

Back on deck, Yu Ying's veterans of the voyage quickly sailed out of the dock and headed down the tide towards the sea.

Looking at the reckless mountains behind him, in fact, it was Dongpingfang City, but the entire Fang City was covered by the phantom array, and he could only drive to the illusory mountains outside. Only when you reach a certain range of the Fang City can you see, this phantom array is actually mainly to prevent mortals and birds and beasts from entering by mistake, and ordinary monks know that this is the largest Fang Market in the entire Chaohe Peninsula, but if you don't know, just ask around.

The current of the tide river is relatively smooth during this season, and even if you are on the boat, you don't feel much turbulence.

Wang Lin watched the scenery on both sides of the strait fly away, and thought with emotion: I, Wang Lin, will be high in the sky from today onwards.

"Young master, we expect that in ten days we will be able to reach a small island far from the main channel that I found when I ran to the sea, the location is very secluded, and there is a freshwater spring on the island, which can be used as a foothold for us at sea. ”

"Okay, by the way, Uncle Yu, since some of the casual cultivators make a living by catching sea beasts, how do they catch sea beasts on this vast sea?" Wang Lin asked the question he had as soon as he got on the boat.

"Well, young master, you're coming to me. With that, he led Wang Lin to the bow of the ship, which was covered with a raincloth. Yu Nian took away the cloth on the bow of the ship, and Wang Lin saw a huge crossbow machine.

"Young Master, this is the main tool for hunting sea beasts, the [Cannon Crossbow]. The base of this crossbow machine is made of stainless steel, the bow body and bowstring are made of the horns and tendons of a second-order demon beast called the meerkat ox, and the ballista is made of steel with a crossbow with the thickness of the arm, which is very powerful when combined with each other. The effective range is 1000 meters, and the power is the greatest within 800 meters.

It can be said that the most valuable thing on this ship, besides the ship itself, is this ballista. The entire ship cost a total of 1,100 spirit stones, and this ballista was worth more than 300 spirit stones.

Ballistae are generally a necessary offensive and defensive tool for hunting ships and merchant ships going to sea, but the biggest threat on the sea besides the weather is from sea beasts. Even some of the larger armed merchant ships had more and larger ballistas. Some large mist-grade ballistas can even destroy a ship with just one shot.

We're just a normal ballista. But it's enough to protect us offshore.

Wang Lin looked at this huge ballista, and also sighed at the wisdom of the people of this world, such a complex ballista has never been seen on the earth. Speaking of power alone, it should be almost the same as the small-caliber artillery on the earth. And in terms of penetration alone, I am afraid that it is far superior to artillery of the same caliber.

This thing is really a weapon for hunting demon beasts.

Wang Lin saw that there was also a baffle made of dark iron on the base of the crossbow arrow, and this baffle made of dark iron even wrapped the entire capital of the ship.

Yu Nian explained that it was precisely because of this ring of baffles that the bow of the ship became the strongest place on the whole ship, intended to protect the ballista from being damaged, you must know that the sea beast is a monster, and it will have some powerful talent spells, once the ballista located in the bow of the ship is destroyed, then the people on the ship will be helpless against the sea beast in the sea.

When Wang Lin asked if the sea beast would destroy the hull of the ship on the bottom of the sea, Yu Nian explained that there are generally no huge sea beasts in the offshore sea, and any sea ship that goes to sea will strengthen the bottom of the ship, and ordinary spells and impacts will not affect the hull, but this is the general situation, if you encounter a huge size, or a sea monster that has been cultivated to a high level, there is no way, and it is normal for the ship to be destroyed and people die. This is one of the reasons why the sea is extremely dangerous. The large ships are fine, but it is difficult to survive the small boats like Wang Lin and them.

However, there are no absolutes, after hundreds of years of exploration, people have also found some rules, generally huge and strong sea beasts are entrenched in the deep sea, rarely appear in the near sea, so small boats are generally dispatched in the near sea, and some large and medium-sized ships will go to the farther sea to explore.

Wang Lin returned to the cabin from the deck, since he would have spent a long time on the ship, he couldn't waste his cultivation. In the best room of the whole ship prepared for Wang Lin alone, he began to try to enter the cultivation.

But the idea was good, but because of the shaking of the ship, Wang Lin always failed to reach an ethereal state of concentration.

Just when he felt irritable, he decisively gave up and continued to work hard, and cultivation was a very rigorous process. Now I can't adapt to the bumpy environment of the sea, and if I forcibly cultivate, it will be light.

But being idle is not a thing, and besides, there is no place to exercise on this small boat, and Wang Lin, who is not used to being idle suddenly, suddenly wants to see the space, and he hasn't paid much attention to it in the past few days.

Projecting psychic power into space. I found that the space had unconsciously expanded to the size of a football ball. The space was still darker than ever before. Wang Lin suddenly thought of the space last time, because he had absorbed a century-old ginseng. That is, then, there is something that can promote the evolution of space.

Since a century-old ginseng can, what about other spiritual things?

As soon as he thought of it, Wang Lin opened the storage bag he was carrying, and there were all kinds of messy things inside. This is the item he collected at the stall, everyone has a heart to pick up leaks, and Wang Lin is no exception, especially in the extremely rare light attribute demon core that made the pocket watch [Time Brilliance], even if it was a big leak, it was pitted alive by the unscrupulous Zhao Yaer. But this time the leak aroused Wang Lin's great interest, and when he wandered around the market every day, he paid attention to the things on the vendors' stalls, and he bought a lot of strange things with a heart of leak detection, of course, he finally found that these were dog shit, even if they were thrown on the street, no one picked them up. Wang Lin had no choice but to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, and he couldn't help it. But you can't return it, this is the rule, "buy and leave, no return." ”

But the things I bought didn't throw away.,Pick up the leak.,No one knows to detect the leak.,Everyone thinks it's worthless garbage to be able to pick up the leak.,If everyone knows it, it's also a fart leak.。

When others ridiculed Wang Lin, he had no choice but to use this excuse to defend himself. Of course, the most important thing is that he really can't afford to lose that person, Wang Lin holds: Even if he is deceived, it is also Lao Tzu's own willingness", things naturally can't be lost, in case that Wang Ba calf sees it and publicizes it, don't you slap yourself in the face. So he had no choice but to keep this pile of rags that cost him a lot of spirit stones until today.
