Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Just one day after the establishment of the Blue Cross Society, a special guest came to the Dawn City controlled by the Red Rose.

The visitor was wearing a gown with a huge Blue Cross logo and arrived at the Dawn City under the protection of more than a dozen strong soldiers.

Then he showed the soldiers guarding the city a letter of introduction with the seal of the Maro City Council.

This letter of introduction was reported layer by layer and finally delivered to George Saint Rose, the patriarch of the Red Rose family.

After George read the letter of introduction, he personally met the visitor and the two had a secret exchange for the whole night.

As for what the two talked about specifically, it is estimated that not many people know.

But many people know that on the third day after the exchange that night, ten medium-sized cargo ships flying the Blue Cross flag and fully loaded with cargo quietly set off from the Port of Villen.

Then they sailed upstream along the Seine River towards the Dawn City.

Yes, the sea ship entered the river and went upstream.

Generally speaking, it is almost impossible for ordinary sea ships to enter the river.

But for the city of Maro, it is not too difficult.

The reason why this can be done is that the Seine River is wide and deep enough, and the water flow is slow, which meets the basic conditions for navigation.

Second, these ten cargo ships are all equipped with the [Windbreaker] system.

Since the [Windbreaker] can generate a conical negative pressure zone in front of the bow, the air behind the ship will rush forward continuously, thereby pushing the sails and providing a continuous source of power for the ship.

And it is also pollution-free power.

As long as the water flow is not very turbulent, these ships can sail against the current, and the speed can reach 3-5 knots.

At the same time, in order to cope with the changeable weather environment on land, these ten cargo ships use the latest improved [Windbreaker] 3.0 system.

This generation of system mainly changes the energy storage part. Since obtaining the space energy storage inscription, Ethan has applied it to the [Windbreaker] system.

Today's 3.0 system, due to the significant increase in energy storage, can travel continuously when the weather is good.

Even if the weather is bad and there is no sunshine, magic stones can be used as a source of energy, which greatly increases the ability to sail continuously.

Of course, due to the high price of magic stones, if magic stones are used as a power source, the cost of navigation will definitely increase greatly.

Therefore, if you can avoid it, try not to use it.

Generally, in the marine environment, this energy supply system is basically useless.

But when sailing in an inland river, or against the current, if the ship suddenly loses power, it is likely to turn sideways and then hit the shore uncontrollably.

Therefore, for the sake of navigation safety, it is necessary to prepare anyway, after all, it is better to be prepared.

When these ten new cargo ships entered the waters near Xingguang Town, local residents and senior officials were stunned.

It was the first time they saw such a strange-shaped ship, with a lighthouse-like pillar on the bow, and it could go upstream without rowing oars, and the key speed was so fast.

For a moment, their three views were shattered.

So they speculated where these ships came from and which force they belonged to.

Some people said that this was the Royal Navy.

Some people said that this was the arrival of the gods.

…

In short, there are all kinds of things, and they are getting more and more outrageous.

When Paul, the garrison officer of Starlight Town, saw these ships, he immediately frowned.

He is not one of those ignorant civilians who only talk nonsense.

He had stayed in Maro City for a long time. At that time, he was entrusted by his family to study at the shipyard in Port Vilen at his own expense.

The so-called self-funded study means that when you go to work in the shipyard, you not only don’t get paid, but you also have to pay them.

There is no need to say what the purpose is.

After returning from the study, he has been in charge of the affairs of the shipyard in Starlight Town.

Although he was promoted all the way and was no longer responsible for the specific affairs of the shipyard, he has always been concerned about the development of the shipbuilding industry.

Especially the shipbuilding industry in Port Vilen.

Therefore, when he saw these strange-shaped ships, he immediately recognized that they were the [Windbreaker] transport ships of the Lawson family, the shipping overlord.

This type of ship can sail in a straight line and has an extremely fast speed. It can easily reach a speed of more than 10 knots on the sea. It is rumored that the highest speed has reached 18 knots.

In this era when the average speed is only 4-6 knots, they are simply invincible, and no fleet can compare with them.

Paul is extremely yearning for these ships. He had personally tried the route from Port Vilen to the imperial capital opened by the Lawson family with this kind of ship.

The route that originally took about 6 days was completed in less than a day.

At that time, the fierce sea breeze whistled across his face, and Paul was shocked beyond words.

People who don’t understand ships will never understand his mood at that time.

After returning, he compiled what he saw and heard into a report, reported to his superiors, and strongly suggested that the family purchase this [Windbreaker] system from the Lawson family.

However, this report was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response at all.

He didn’t know why this happened, but he didn’t give up, so he wrote reports to his superiors many times, but there was no response every time.

Finally, he couldn’t stand it anymore, and took the opportunity of a banquet to ask the patriarch in person for the reason.

The patriarch’s response was to tell him not to joke, that joke was not funny at all.

At that time, he was completely confused.

It turned out that he had written so many reports, but the clan leader regarded them all as jokes.

However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt relieved.

People always fail to understand and do not believe in things beyond their own knowledge.

This is similar to when the group of slaves discussed what the emperor ate every day, someone would say that the emperor must have at least two steamed buns every day, and maybe even a portion of broth.

If he had not seen the [Windbreaker] himself, he would not believe that there was such a fast sailing ship in the world that could run in a straight line.

After understanding this, Paul tried to explain to the patriarch that it was not a joke.

But the patriarch did not seem to be interested in this. He was more interested in a noble lady who had just lost her husband.

Although the patriarch pretended to listen carefully, his eyes kept wandering on the noble lady's slender legs and towering breasts.

Paul was helpless and a little discouraged.

He had realized that it was impossible to persuade the patriarch, so he wanted to rely on his own ability.

He was the kind of person who did what he said, and he found out the price of the [Windbreaker] with the connections he had accumulated when he worked at the Vilen Port Shipyard.

When he learned that a set of [Windbreaker] cost about 20,000 gold, although he was shocked that it was more expensive than the ship, he still felt that it was worth the money, and even felt that it was too fair.

So he contacted other important members of the clan to borrow money and prepared to buy one himself.

When he raised enough money and approached the Lawson family, he learned that they would not sell it at all.

No one could know Paul's mood at that time.

Now, this kind of ship appeared in front of him again, and his eyes were red.

In any case, he wanted to own this kind of ship.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed that at the front of the cargo ship was a much smaller but extremely streamlined ship.

The ship was flying the double-headed black snake 15-star flag, and there was a giant protrusion covered with a thick blanket on the deck.

Seeing this, Paul frowned again and whispered to himself: "Maro City Council? What are they doing here?"

Then, he turned to look at his men and ordered: "Send flags and ask them what they are doing here?"
