Chapter 583

After su Lun crossed the world, he tried to make gunpowder, but to his disappointment, gunpowder could not explode at all. Artillery weapons can only stay on the drawing.

Suellen has heard that the hill dwarves have something similar to gunpowder, which is used to cut mountains and stones and dig minerals, but this material is very expensive. This kind of thing similar to gunpowder is called fire crystal powder. The main material is a kind of fire crystal.

After grinding pyrolite and mixing with several other materials, it will produce an effect similar to gunpowder. However, the cost of this kind of thing is much more expensive than gunpowder. Even in the southern sea area, there are few ships equipped with this kind of pyrolite powder weapon. Su Lun plans to build some pyrolite guns and install them on warships.

The first batch of navies trained by Barbosa returned to deepwater city. Although this batch of navies only trained for just three months, their strength has met the requirements. After all, Barbosa directly pulled these people to sail the sea in order to train a qualified Navy as soon as possible.

If Suellen hadn't prepared a lot of underwater breathing medicine for him, half of the navy would have died. After these three months of intensive training, these people have experienced the baptism of several storms on the ocean. Under such cruel conditions, their level has naturally improved rapidly.

This training method is basically to directly let the recruits come to the battlefield with weapons and let the battlefield educate him. This practice is very cruel, but as long as they survive, they can quickly become elite. But this usually happens among pirates.

Pirates don't give you time to train and adapt, fight and sail again and again. Only by cultivating pirates in this way can they compete with the Navy on the sea.

Although various protective measures such as underwater breathing agents have been prepared, there are still several deaths in this batch of Navy, which is also a matter of no way.

With the first batch of navies, the first warship in deepwater city can be used. The next Navy will train from the navy camp. The training cycle of the navy camp is nine months. Although it seems to take a long time, it is several times faster than that of other countries.

It takes a Navy at least two years from recruit to skilled operation of warships. Compared with them, it only takes nine months here in sulun, which is more than twice as fast.

After checking these navies, Su Lun was quite satisfied with them, and then announced to increase their salary. Those who unfortunately died in training were subsidized according to the standards of martyrs, and Zhenbei city would distribute them all kinds of materials.

After hearing that they passed the test, all the soldiers cheered excitedly. These soldiers directly obtained the citizenship of the North Town, and their families also obtained a share of land and houses. Sulun was very generous to the army.

After completing the training, Suellen gave these navies a few days off, and then formally formed the Navy after the construction of new warships. Barbosa also served as navy commander of deepwater city.

Deep water city now has two seagoing ships, one is a training warship and the other is an armed merchant ship. These two ships will not join the Navy sequence. After all, these two ships are the hands-on works of deep water city shipyard, and there are many problems in them. Of course, these problems are not serious. It is still no problem to use them as merchant ships, but not as warships.

The Deepwater City Navy established by sulun has a size of about 2500 people, with 15 to 20 main warships, as well as several reconnaissance ships and supply ships. Such a fleet is naturally incomparable with the navies of the southern countries with a size of tens of thousands of people, but the combat effectiveness of the Deepwater City Navy will not be weak.

Although the navies of the southern countries are strong, few ships are built of iron oak. Iron oak has a very good arson effect. The hull is hard. After installing the collision angle, it can easily crash a ship using teak under full speed impact.

Even in previous lives, it was not until the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century that they completely withdrew from the stage of battle. The reason is that the collision angle is powerful. Many times there are naval battles at sea, and the two sides shelled and fired hundreds of shells. As a result, although the two ships were scarred, they still showed no signs of sinking. However, this weapon can kill the enemy with one hit.

Such a powerful weapon is the killer mace of naval pirates. As long as it hits, it can easily knock a huge hole in the side chord of the ship, and the sea water will gush in immediately, and the ship will sink soon.

In contrast, the power of the fire crystal gun is very limited. After all, the hit rate of the fire crystal gun is not high, but on the sea, the hit rate is even more touching. The artillery battle in the era of great navigation in the previous life is to bombard two warships when they are close side by side. It takes a lot of money to solve the problem of hit rate by relying on quantity.

Suellen plans to equip some fire crystal guns and study the alchemy cannon. The alchemy cannon has been produced for a long time, but there is also a problem, that is, the operator is a wizard. Suellen wants Hathaway to improve it and see if it can be transformed into an ordinary person. If the transformation is successful, the army of deepwater city can sweep across the sea.

The alchemy cannon uses magic. After directly inputting magic, it forms a spell attack similar to fireball, but it was thrown into the corner shortly after the alchemy cannon was developed. The main reason is that wizards can use fireball originally. Why should they use this kind of alchemy cannon to attack. As a result, this alchemy cannon directly became a joke between wizards.

For the idea of alchemy cannon, Su Lun shook his head helplessly. This thing deviated from the direction from the beginning. He should make alchemy cannon that ordinary people can use, not wizards.

The drawings of this alchemy cannon were collected into some wizard books as negative teaching materials. Naturally, Hathaway knew it well, but it was not easy to transform it into a magic prop that ordinary people can use. The magic props made by wizards are basically used by wizards, and ordinary people are rarely considered to use them.

But this is not without any way. After all, some triggered magic props can also be used by ordinary people.

If the alchemy cannon can be made successfully, Suellen plans to replace the crossbow on the Nu long magic ship with an alchemy cannon. The range of the crossbow on the magic ship is 500 meters, and the shooting accuracy is very accurate. After the transformation, the crossbow is added with fire oil, and the combustion effect is very good. A salvo can ignite a ship.

However, compared with the power of the alchemy cannon, the power of fireball is still much smaller. Su Lun knows very well that it is a great threat to the current wooden ship. A few fireballs can easily send a ship to the bottom of the sea.

Su Lun summoned the Nu long magic ship. During this time, nu long has been sleeping at the bottom of the sea to accumulate energy. Now the energy on the ship is full. Su Lun plans to take this magic ship to the eastern continent.

Sulun prepared a lot of materials for this trip to the eastern continent. At the same time, he will take two merchant ships to form a fleet and set out together.

Nu long has been tested and sailed several times. There is no problem with its speed or defense at sea. In the curious eyes of the Navy on shore, nu long slowly enters the port. Nu long is larger than warships and armed merchant ships.

And the Nu long also cast space magic. The space on the ship is very large. It can carry large quantities of goods. Nu long added a lot of alchemical structures in the process of making. According to Hathaway's estimation, its maximum speed can reach 80 nautical miles per hour.

However, due to the immaturity of the energy supply device, the energy currently used by Nu long depends on the Dharma array. It usually needs to collect energy. Of course, it can also allow wizards to inject mana and place magic stones to extract energy. The cost must be much higher.

After collecting the slow energy, it can sail at full speed for about a day. If the cruise speed is adopted, the Nu long can sail for a month. Of course, if it only depends on the sail power, it will be OK to sail at sea for a year without a war.

Su Lun boarded the Nu long, accompanied by some businessmen and scholars familiar with the eastern continent. Su Lun mainly went to do business this time and did not intend to do anything. He intends to open up a new channel to make money.

The western continent is located in the north of the planet, not a short distance from the eastern continent. In the southeast of the western continent, there is another continent near the equator.

On the magic ship.

Those scholars who are familiar with the east continent are introducing the environment of the east continent to businessmen. There are a large number of poisons on this continent, so they must not eat wild things casually after arriving there. At the same time, they also tell some local customs of the east continent.

The proportion of poisons in the whole east continent accounts for nearly one tenth, that is, one of the ten organisms is toxic. Therefore, the intelligent race in the whole east continent has obtained additional toxin resistance in the long biological evolution.

Then, because the east continent is closer to the south, the environment here is relatively hot and the climate changes more violently than here. It may be sunny in the morning and Thunderstorm in the afternoon, which is similar to the environment of tropical rain forest.

In addition to these, the east continent is also rich in products, and many specialties are completely absent in the west continent. In addition to these, the east continent is also the birthplace of martial monks. There have been serious accidents here in the era of the arcane empire. There are many ancient evil things sealed on this continent, and these evil things are basically suppressed by the martial monks' monasteries.

Su Lun is also very interested in these evil things, but in this long time, many evil things have been killed by the town. Maybe he can kill a few heads to earn some experience.
