Watching the Dawn
Vol 7 Chapter 155: Stronger ship
Outside the port of Nassau, a slender cruiser with black and white stripes painted on it was slowly driving. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test
She patrolled the open sea and bombarded the merchant ships from time to time. Seeing the cannonballs falling down up, down, left, and right like ships with long eyes, the merchant ship was terrified and immediately turned around, and ran back into the port of Nassau.
It seems that as long as these ships return, the cruiser outside will not pursue.
In this way, there was no widespread panic in the port of Nassau. A tax official secretly hid, and nobody noticed him.
After two hours, the local people in the port of Nassau, driving the "Jackdaw" (see Chapter 87 for details) and two other battleships, rushed out of the air and went straight to the location of the "Elona" .
Sure enough, this time "Elona" did not make any shelling moves, so that the three ships approached smoothly.
Before waiting to board the port, Edward Kenway, the captain of the Jackdaw wearing an assassin outfit, grabbed the rope and hung it outside the ship, looking out to this side.
"It really is you!" Edward Kenway saw Lu Yuan standing on the side of the ship with a grin at a glance, so angry that he was going crazy. He gritted his teeth and said, "Fak Squid! Fak Squid! Fak Squid! What the **** do you want?"
"Looking for you ..." Lu Yuan replied lightly.
Edward Kenway was silent for a few seconds, and then roared angrily, "Then you dare to seal the port! Can't you enter Hong Kong like a normal person ?!"
"I want to go in, but was rejected ..." Lu Yuan spread his hand. The two people were still separated by more than a dozen meters, and their first officers controlled the wheel rudder, allowing the two ships to travel side by side, so that the two captains could chat across the sea ... If anyone pushed the cannon out at this time, it was estimated that it would be a terrible match. War! Lu Yuan has checked the properties of the Jackdaw. Has been strengthened to almost the same as "Elona".
However, others have their own systems, and they ca n’t compare them, and they ca n’t learn.
Edward Kenway was speechless ... he remembered it now, as if he had indeed given the order. No one who hangs the "Siren Banner" is allowed to approach the port of Nassau ... he presses the blood vessels of his forehead. Can only change the subject. "Speak, what are you looking for?"
"Look at this ..." Lu Yuan raised his hand. A thin piece of white paper was spinning, actually against the sea breeze, amazingly flying over ten meters of sea, and steadily flew towards Edward Kenway. Let him copy it in his hand. Edward Kenway was apparently stunned by this hand, and he stared at the distance.
"See if it still works! I'm in a hurry ..." Lu Yuan reminded that this was what he turned over from the bottom of the box, but he still got it when he killed the first enemy Napoli.
Edward Kenway turned his eyes to the paper in his hand.
--------
Napoli's wanted order:
Napoli is a captain of a Samsung ship of a British East India company engaged in the Far East trade.
With this wanted order, you can get 500 pounds of remuneration from any Spanish city official! Or hand this over to the Brotherhood of Assassins, and you can get a special ship upgrade from the mysterious Jackdaw.
--------
Wait until he finishes reading. Lu Yuan shouted across the boat, "Hey, Mr. Mysterious Captain Jack, can this thing still work?"
"Can ... use it!" Edward Kenway gritted his teeth and replied. "Come and pick yourself, see what is good ... just take it!" He said angrily. This wanted order involves the Brotherhood of Assassins. He has now joined the organization and cannot directly refuse it. But the real good things are in the residence of the Port of Nassau, there is nothing here.
Lu Yuan unknowingly pulled the cable and swayed over. When he landed, he shot the book "Sea Monster" and cast a "detect magic item"! In Lu Yuan's arcane vision, magical items show different auras according to their strength level ...
"Hahaha! This is it! This is it!" Lu Yuan rushed to the "Snow Crow" ... wheel rudder! Hold it and don't let go!
On the surface, this old wheel rudder is not astonishing. Except for the beautiful patterns on it, it seems to be made of ordinary walnut. But since the advent of the wheel rudder, let's not say that precious wood such as black wood, mahogany wood, red sandalwood, etc. have been used in gold and jade, and there are countless gems inlaid. Walnut? That's what the poor use! But even the poorest captain is willing to spend a few small dollars on the rudder he has been holding in his hand all day, using walnut ... what a shame! But the walnut rudder was inlaid with a large emerald in the middle of the fist, which looked quite extraordinary.
But in Lu Yuan's eyes, the strong light of the wheel rudder must make him get red eyes! Be sure to get it!
"Hey! That's my spoils!" Edward Kenken shouted angrily, "What do you mean ?! Wouldn't you like to take the opportunity to go to war! What do you use when you take the rudder away ?!"
"Ha!" Lu Yuan made a sneering voice, but took off a few pins on the wheel rudder without stopping, aha! There are 120 scales? ! It is simply the machining accuracy of the sky! He speeded up his hand and continued to play fart with Edward Kenway in his mouth, "Poor baby, you won't sail without a rudder ... Would dady teach you !?"
Angrily Edward Kenway made a few strokes, speechless, and could only hold the wanted order sternly, stunned and landed far away.
Lu Yuan stopped suddenly and said thoughtfully, "I heard that you have a great mortar?"
"I fak!" Edward Kenway jumped up suddenly. "Who made you already choose this, hurry and carry the rudder! I'm absolutely impossible to give you the mortar gun, dead this heart Right! "
"The gear is mine too!" Lu Yuanle not only dismantled the wheel rudder, but also removed several gears connected below, these are all one set. Not to mention that the wheel rudder shows "unidentified", and the attributes are not yet visible, that is, 120 scales is worth Lu Yuan's shot. The wheel rudder he is using now has only twenty-four scales. It stands to reason that this is already good. But on the way out of the shipwreck island, he could not exercise fine control over the warship. Most of the time he had to rely on luck, and he almost finished it several times!
He had previously installed a double-layer wheel rudder on the Kraken, which doubled the control precision. Only forty-eight scales! Now holding this, without mentioning the magic attribute, the light scale is 120, far exceeding the processing level of this era!
Edward Kenway's rough goods. I definitely still think it's inconvenient to use this thing ... Kenima is definitely something for the master of navigation!
Carrying the wheel rudder. Lu Yuan returned to the "Elona" with satisfaction, and straightened Yang Fan toward the northeast.
Edward Kenway, who feels no face. Also return directly to Nasao ...
Just say this wheel rudder, Lu Yuan's "appraisal technique" shot down! The material of the walnut changed, and the color of ivory began to appear, and the large emerald inlaid in the center of the wheel rudder became ample.

Legendary rudder: "Rock"
This wheel rudder once belonged to Connor Kenway's "Eagle" and Edward Kenway's "Jackdaw". But no one can discover the magical properties of this rudder ...
However, the rudder is carefully manufactured by top shipbuilders. With 120 control scales, the ship can be controlled very finely.
(The ship's handling flexibility is increased by 20%.)
Magic attribute: "deflection barrier". Before the magic power is exhausted, the protective barrier of the wheel rudder will deflect any attacks against the wheel rudder and the rudder.
(Current magic storage: 22/1000)

Your sister! Lu Yuan couldn't help but scolded, this thing is bulletproof! So unscientific! But I like ...
The helmsman is always standing on the highest stern building without obstruction, and the goal is more distinct than the fireflies in the night! Moreover, during naval battles, it is particularly easy to accidentally injure-a cannonball flew past. The man on the deck was completely unharmed, and the helmsman was killed by the jumping wood chips ...... Don't have too much tragedy.
Lu Yuan looked at the middle-aged man standing in front of him, Humphrey Douglas.
The former British Musketeer officer offended his boss. Swept out by the army. Seeing that he was still wearing the uniform of an old musket officer, he was obviously incapable of buying other dresses, and it was said that he even sold his own musket and owed a debt in Port of Spain.
You know, when John Walkman went to recruit him, he brought a full six thousand pesos in cash-it was a big bag of money. But in addition to sending some money to his family immediately, the rest of the money is only enough to pay the interest of his debts ... Otherwise, he has been restricted by the creditors, and he cannot leave the port of Spain.
Lu Yuan was very curious about how he owed so much money. As for Lu Yuan ’s five-pound note, would n’t you really take it seriously? That was just a joke ...
"Welcome to you! Mr. Douglas!" Lu Yuan asked him and John to sit down. He had heard John's report about the details of Humphrey Douglas. "I hope you will serve as John's assistant to help him manage the gunners and musketeers. The specific division of labor will follow John's arrangement. What do you think?"
Lu Yuan does not plan to separate the two. Humphrey Douglas and John Walkman are both officers of the British Navy. Those soldiers trained under the same system, perhaps Humphrey Douglas is stronger on the gun. But the chances of using more on the ship are still artillery, of course, mainly John.
When fighting in general, Lu Yuan will definitely pilot the ship himself, which is their strongest point. In this case, he needs his first officer, John Walker, to stand by at all times around the stern so that he can receive his orders directly. Then on the artillery deck on the next floor, a unified command adjutant needs to be arranged. Lu Yuan feels that Humphrey Douglas is just right.
In many cases, you only need to be a good microphone to do the job, and the possibility of command is very small.
But beyond his expectations, Humphrey showed a very embarrassed expression after hearing his arrangement. He finally said, "I really hope to be able to live under your command, but you know, I owe a lot of money ... I hope to be a reputable person, repay these arrears, and also be able to send some money back Home ... God knows that I have n’t sent anything back in half a year, and I dare not even think about them ... "He paused for a moment, looked at Lu Yuan's complexion, and finally said. "So I have to ask you 600 pesos a month's salary ... Please believe me! Captain, I swear I will rush to the front in every battle! I can contribute everything to win!"
He looked at the landing far away sincerely, and almost swore according to the Bible.
Hearing what he said, John Walkman, who was sitting on the left hand side of Lu Yuan, shook his face in shame and bowed his head. Li Huamei, who was sitting on the right side of Lu Yuan, smiled gently with his mouth covered.
Looking at them, Humphrey Douglas flushed with shame, but he still insisted on waiting for the answer.
Lu Yuan looked around helplessly, or tried to persuade, "Can I call you Humphrey? Humphrey, you are both a musketeer and my commander, I will never allow you to rush in At the front. And you do n’t need to worry about debt. What I need to let you know is that on my boat, the treatment of the lieutenant is good ... "Lu Yuan explained.
"I insist, Captain. Only at this point, I have to insist ..." Humphrey smiled bitterly, insisting with his teeth clenched. Compared with the average salary of 30 to 50 pesos per month for a sailor, the employment price of 600 pesos is definitely a top salary, but he really has no other way ...
"Well, I agree!" Seeing Humphrey Douglas stubbornly like a stone, Lu Yuan could only shake his head helplessly, and took out a contract and a purse ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ After writing the number of six hundred, hand it to him, "Take back the contract and take a closer look. In addition, here is five thousand pesos, which is your salary in advance. Go to put your wife and children in a good place, it is best to receive the Caribbean Hailai. Next, I want to see the effect of the Musketeers ’training! Otherwise I ca n’t guarantee ... you can still get a 600 pesos salary."
"Captain Obey! I will not let you down!" Humphrey saluted a military salute and walked backwards.
"Ha! Ha! Ha!" After he left, Lu Yuan and John Walkman laughed together for a long time, and even Li Huamei couldn't help laughing.
"Now you should understand how high your salary is?" Lu Yuan yelled, staring at his eyes.
"Yeah, I'm so moved." John said with a smile, wiping his tears pretendingly.
"So all of you guys have added loyalty to me! Otherwise, all of you will get a 600 pesos high salary!"
