The guns were the most powerful weapons Raine had ever seen. Looking at those accessories, Raine felt his heart beat faster.
But he wasn't the only one excited. Avril and the others came running over.
"Captain! Let me see too!"
"Wow, that's a great sail, "
"We have a sail now!"
The crew climbed onto Raine's body from all directions.
Raine's face turned dark. (if he has) I haven't finished the retrofit yet!
Forget it. Anyway, the big project is completed, and the rest work wouldn't have a major transformation of the hull. Just let these hicks see the elephant!
Besides, Raine wouldn't use this thing.
"Hey, there are three guns that need to be assembled." Raine said, "Terry, check if this thing still works?"
Terry immediately went to a gun and touched the barrel excitedly, "Captain, you asked the right person! I usually like to study this equipment. Although I can not afford it, it is also a hobby."
Raine can completely understand men are interested in weapons and such.
"Captain, this is relatively simple and common artillery. After loading the shell into the chamber and igniting the fire door with the fuse, the explosion‘s force will fire the shell. But the shells could not explode."
"However, these gun barrels are short and muzzles are thick, which is for ensuring the shell's volume is enough to cause greater damage, but this requires filling a large amount of powder, and the trajectory needs a parabola angle. It is unlike the cannon, which has a long and thin barrel. The cannon can be fired in a low trajectory, or even a flat trajectory, and with hefty firepower."
Raine understands seemingly. Anyway, Terry's meaning is that this gun is not good, and the gun is not in the same class as the cannon...
"Captain, this kind of artillery is poor in accuracy and small in power. Generally, two ships can be more powerful when they travel close to parallel."
Raine immediately thought of the naval battles on television - two warships standing in line and then a burst of indiscriminate bombardment.
Well, that would be a huge loss for both sides.
"No, no, no! I don't want to trade lives with another ship like that!" Raine immediately said.
"Terry, the price of gunpowder..."
"Captain, I know, super expensive!" Armin raised her hand and answered, "Not something we can afford anyway."
"Captain, not only the gunpowder is very expensive, but also we only have three guns. Just these three guns to decide a battle... A bit difficult." Terry added.
Raine was suddenly deflated.
You know he was looking forward to the artillery for a long time, even more than the upgrade! Now he was excited for half a day, but the three guns no much use.
Not only it is useless, but also it takes up a lot of weight, so heavy!
Raine sighed and thought carefully. Terry and the others were right. Putting a few useless guns on the ship is not make sense.
Since then, Raine simply melted all three cannons into steel and copper ingots and opened the crafting menu.
Raine no longer needs the artillery, but he intends to use these metal ingots.
Copper is more malleable than iron, then Raine strengthened his ramming horn, bow, and side plates. The stern naturally needed to be reinforced to keep the boat balanced. After these, 500 kg metal ingots were already used up.
Now Raine's hull, bow, and stern are all covered with metal. The length of the ramming horn was lengthened by about a meter.
Raine also used 200 kg metal ingots to reinforce the mast base and the planking joints to further strengthen the ship.
There were already a lot of metal parts on the ship, and the planked ship's appearance gradually became different.
There were still some metal ingots left. Raine thought about it.
During the battle with Chike, when they sank Captain Baldy's ship, several pirates came to his bottom to overturn Raine. This incident has always haunted Raine.
If Arsan did not arrive in time, then it is likely that they turned the boat over.
If the boat is overturned, all the equipment is useless!
"Let me see what I can do for a simple defense." Raine searched through the craftable items.
It seems that no weapons can be made... So much metal, why don't you give me a cannon? Raine guesses it may be because his current level is too low.
"Trash system!" Raine can not help but complain, "can I only equip a wooden spike? Can't I replace the wooden spike with a steel spike?"
Perhaps because his ship wasn't wide enough to build more wooden spikes, so the system didn't provide a manufacturing list.
At this moment, Raine suddenly saw an interesting thing.
| [Bottom Harpoon: 8/40 units of steel ingots, 50/577 meters of rope, loaded with a large steel harpoon on the side of the bottom, can stab and kill small and medium-sized creatures (under 200 kg), can be equipped with fishing nets to catch. Note: Steel fork needs to recover through the rope. The shooting range is 5m-50m.] |
"Ohhhhhh!" Raine's eyes widened. A weapon is hidden here!
Although it is called the "harpoon," the panel wrote 200 kg or less! The weight of an adult is not even 100 kg. That is to say, these steel forks for fishing can be used as a defensive weapon!
No doubt, this is what Raine wants!
"Such a powerful weapon, and can also catch fish! Give me six!"
The system immediately got busy, the steel ingots on the ship were rapidly decreasing, and the ropes bought last time for treasure hunting were quickly disappearing.
Raine now is 12 meters long, excluding the bow and stern. Every three meters install a harpoon on each side. A total of 6 bottom harpoons were installed in less than a minute.
Avril asked with a confused face, "Captain, What did you do with these ingots?"
"Yeah, and the ropes, I don't see anything extra on the boat." Armin also said strangely.
Raine said proudly, "Who told you guys that I must put it on the boat?!"
"From now on, I'm a fully armed boat! Whoever tries to overturn me again, I will fuck him!"
After saying that, Raine fired six steel forks at the same time.
Avril and the others only felt a slight shuddering. In not much time, not far from the boat, six large fish floated up.
"Wow! Captain... how did you do that?" Terry looked at those fish in shock.
AnnouncementI made some changes to make it easier to read. But I don't know if I'm doing it right. I'd appreciate it if you could give me some feedback after reading it. Are these sentences becoming easier to read than before?
