Now the ship is in a mess with many materials, so Raine simply used them to enhance his weapon.
| The new weapon system came out soon. [Bow Bottom Wooden Spikes: Attack Power (10), Quantity (1)] [Ramming horn (Enhanced +1): Attack power (35+15), Quantity (1)] [Bottom Harpoon: Attack Power (6), Quantity (6)] [Large Crossbow: Attack Power (10), Quantity (4)] [Reinforced Hull (Reinforcement +1), Defence (15+10)] |
Now Raine's weapon system combat power was 161!
With the crew providing 15.1, the total combat power was 176.1!
Moreover, the system counted the combat power of the large crossbow as 10, but if he treated the combat power of continuous fire as 50, he can add 160 combat points to that, which is 336.1!
The combat power has exceeded 300!
Looking at the extra 0.1, Raine couldn't help but glance at the little Booty perched high up on the mast, staring into the distance with a deep look.
The sky is where I belong...
Well, it doesn't matter. What the important was Raine felt great now!
Although the load capacity was not increased as big as expected, and the hull was only one size bigger with this evolution, it was very satisfying.
The ship's speed increased, new weapons were added, and he could paddle himself, which was important. Raine gets better and better, but he only has six crew now... if it excludes White and Little Booty, that's four, and Avril too lazy to propel the ship, so actually, only three people provided the power.
This was absolutely a revolutionary evolution that freed up all the crew.
"If I meet Chike again, I wouldn't let them run away!" Raine was full of confidence.
Their cannons were not as powerful as his repeating crossbows judging from the metal arrows three or four meters long.
And Raine noticed that system added the concept of "reinforcement" to the two stats after this evolution, the ramming horn and the reinforced hull.
"Does that mean I can unlimitedly strengthen if I have enough materials?" Raine pondered for a while But on second thought he forgot it, as he wouldn't be able to get a lot of materials for a while anyway.
He'd try to buy some metal in the market next year.
Avril and the others looked around the "spacious" aboard.
"Wow, is this our new cabin? It's so much more spacious than before. And it's a double-decker with three rooms!"
"Have a look down," Terry opened the hidden door on the deck went to the storage cabin, and said to other people, "It's so spacious, we can put stuff and live here, and there's something good!"
The others ran down in excitement.
The storage cabin had been so low that they had to bend to get in, but now they could stand up.
There were several windows to the side with a view of the sea. And four small rooms separated by wood planks, one of the doors was open, and they saw a large crossbow-like weapon set up inside.
This crossbow wagon had no wheels and was fixed with five thick wooden sticks. That sharp metal arrows glowing with cold light were at the ready on the crossbow wagon.
In front of the crossbow was a rectangular closed window that was closed by wooden panels at this point.
"Wooooow! This large crossbow cart is so coooool!" Armin exclaimed.
Raine suddenly said, "This is our new weapon and the secret one. Don't let anyone know."
In a battle at sea, one more weapon would give them a better chance of survival. Everyone understood this.
"Don't worry, Captain. We won't let anyone in here." Avril said.
"Well, only you guys can come down here. The hidden door on the deck will be locked for now. You guys stay in the stern cabin, three rooms is enough." Raine said, "Let me show you guys the power cabin first. You must need it later."
........................
Raine went through the ship in more detail with the crew, now the ship was more complex than before, and it was important for everyone to get familiar with the new ship.
After that, the group then gathered and sat in a huddle in the stern cabin.
"Terry, I can make an extra mast. Where do you think it would be best to put it?" Raine asked.
"Captain, I was thinking about it just now, could you replace the sail with a Latin sail? The triangular kind."
"What's the difference?"
Terry, an old fisherman, started to give Raine a lesson, "The large force area of the transom sail can increase the speed of the boat, but it is less flexible, and it is basically useless when upwind."
"But the Latin sail makes up for this by allowing the direction of the reefing force to be changed by the furling pole, which can take advantage of the different wind directions."
Raine thought about this long but couldn't understand the principle. No matter, he didn't want to dwell on it. He did see quite a few boats using triangular sails, or combination sails with transoms and triangular, suggesting that there must be a benefit to that sail type.
"Captain, stand the mast at the stern, so we'd have a three-masted sailing ship. Power, flexibility all guaranteed."
Raine nodded, "Yeah, okay, I'll try it."
In a matter of minutes, the third mast was erected at the stern, and Raine changed the sail to a triangular sail.
The new boat was finally complete after the improvement.
The hull was still exquisite, with metal covered bow and stern, reinforced ramming horns, and more bottom harpoons...
All that remained was to decorate the crew's new rooms.
........................
The winds blowing in the winter sea are icy cold.
With the blue waters gently floating, the azure sky cloudless. The sea and sky meet in the distance, and there is a different kind of tranquility to the Azure Era in winter.
Armin casts her fishing nets skilfully on the sea before mooring the boat next to the island.
Avril has built a simple perch on the beach with branches and stones.
During the day, some go fishing while others gather around the fire, wash clothes, handle food or do some crafts, and return to the boat to rest at night.
Raine also made small objects when he had nothing else to do.
He has some materials left over. So he replaced all the seawater purification devices with metal. In addition, he made a few buckets to stock up on fresh water.
Occasionally they'd take the boat around, there were still large areas that Raine's charts hadn't explored, and now that no man's land was almost deserted, it was a good time to wander around.
It's a relaxed and leisurely time.
But there is one person who is always busy.
Arsan was always up early before dawn, studying her Biological Mutant Fighting Techniques VOL.1.
And Raine noticed that Arsan's appetite had increased again...
"Open the crew information list." Raine idly began to check the status of his only six crew members.
Now the ship is in a mess with many materials, so Raine simply used them to enhance his weapon.
