Chapter 371: Member selection and first island

Eat dinner and log in. Do some production work before everyone gets together. First, I do my usual production work. Preparation before the event is important. Then gradually we started to gather.

This time, I had my friends gather, so we had a meeting in the garden. The room is too small to accommodate all of them. Then, Ion is in the room.

"Takuto-san, everyone has gathered"

"Ah, thank you. Ion"

I go downstairs and discuss the event with everyone. First of all, we have to choose the members. Ruin-san speaks about this.

"We've got a lot of applications coming in. There are guilds, legions, parties and solos. The first question is how to organize them. I'd like to hear what everyone has to say"

First of all, there's a difference of opinion about the general structure of the group. It's pretty much what we talked about beforehand. For now, we agreed that 200 combat positions were essential, so we decided to start by recruiting these and inspecting the island.

Next was the framework for the combat positions. Before that, Yug-san gave us some important information. It is about the type of ship.

"I'm told that there are five types of ships: magic ships, gun ships, high-speed ships, craft ships and supply ships!"

The performance is summarized in detail as follows

Magic ship

The best ship in terms of both offense and defense. They are equipped with magic engines and do not require fuel. It also has various other special abilities depending on the ship. However, they are the most expensive.

Gun ship

A ship that can carry a large number of cannons. The second most expensive. Cannon shells need to be made by the owner.

High-speed ship

A ship that focuses on speed. The best in speed. Reasonably priced. However, it can only carry one cannon.

Craft ship

A ship that has an air blocking system. Lowest durability value. Cheapest price.

Supply ship

A ship with an inventory function. The second lowest endurance value after the craft. The price is higher than that of a fast ship. If a ship is sunk, it loses all items.

According to Yug-san, in this game, ordinary ships are wooden ships. She also says that you can choose between large, medium and small ships.

The bigger the ship is, the more money it costs. This is only natural. The rest of the game can be customized in various ways. The number of cannons and the magic engine can be customized to increase the speed. I heard this from the carpenter brother before.

The moment I heard this explanation, the importance of archers and alchemists skyrocketed. If a cannon is the means of attack, an archer is a must, and if you have no choice but to make your own cannonballs, an alchemist is a must.

However, it was agreed that it is dangerous to be only concerned about cannons and to be hardened by archers. Then, Yoichi-san made a suggestion.

"Have you received a request from Reich's Musketeers Guild Shooting Stars? They are supposed to be the largest guild of musketeers as far as I know. They did an excellent job of shooting and working together against the Chimaira"

"Wait a minute...ah~! There are so many, it's a hassle. They should add a search function"

"Sister Ruin...it's coming out of your mouth"

"Oh? Excuse me...Ah, it came"

If it's Yoichi-san's view, there's no doubt about it. As we make further decisions, an important opinion comes from Mangetsu-san.

"I think we should have members who can work in the morning and at noon. We're not on vacation this time, are we?"

I had completely forgotten about this. It is true that the event will be held on a weekday, so we may be in trouble if we don't gather people who can act in the morning and afternoon. Then there is the problem of the summoners.

"Takuto-kun, I didn't expect you to deny that you are a summoner"Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

"I am not denying it. I just thought that the main thing would be to escort the ship. When there is a carrier, the escort is indispensable"

"Emm...we don't have any underwater type summoners, do we?"

"We'll have to attack on the island and in Rook's case, the goblins can use the cannons"

Then Tyrol says.

"Ah. I'll gather the stonemasons. Have you decided on the members?"

I haven't decided that part yet...while everyone is discussing it, I ask permission, look around and then take out my fishing rod and fish. Now, will we get a hit?

As I predicted, I got a mackerel. So we can get food from the sea.

"Did you catch it?"

"Yes, I did. Let me recommend Shallow-san and Nick-san, the alchemists who fought with us on the Chimaira"

"They? They have more than just cannonballs...what are they up to?"

I'll tell Will-san.

"If you are going to build a levee, can't you build it in two stages, away from the shore?"

"It's possible...but away from the shore?"

"Yes. If we build it near the coast, we will have to attack the enemy in the water. That would put us at a disadvantage"

"I see. If we want to defend ourselves, it would be ideal if we build it on land...Then why the two-stage setup?"

Everyone answered before I could.

It's a trap, isn't it?

It is a common tactic to attack from above with a big wall between them. The fire meter is also effective, so I thought we needed the alchemist's help. Besides, they are specialists in mass production of weapons. I think it would be advantageous for them to be able to throw and move weapons at will.

"I see...you immediately think of defensive measures in this situation"

"No wonder you have a high clearance rate for events"

"As usual...that Takuto. No, has he become more awesome than before?"

It's something that's appreciated. I'm worried because it's a pretty ghastly measure. Then we had a discussion and the members were decided. Our composition is as follows.

60 heavy infantry, 20 spearmen, 45 knights, 40 swordsmen, 5 fighters, 40 mages, 40 musketeers, 50 archers, 20 summoners, 10 beastmasters, 40 ninjas, 5 clergymen, 30 alchemists, 15 blacksmiths, 20 masons, 25 woodworkers, 5 leather workers, 10 cooks, 10 fishermen and 10 others

The challenge was to have 375 combat jobs and 125 production jobs. The reason for the large number of heavy infantrymen and knights was that they were considered necessary in the defense of the base. The reason for the small number of fighters and clerics is that they are already fighting each other.

We decided to recruit strong solo players and parties who can act at noon in this situation. It seems that there are many such players in Reich, and people from Shooting Stars and Iron and Steel Division were willing to move.

The reason for the decrease in production was, not surprisingly, that it turned out that many people were taking production skills. Cooking skills were especially popular. Others became mainly in the role of gathering information and giving operational instructions. Ruin-san, Saba Can-san, Nao-san and others are in this group. Saba Can-san immediately gives us some information.

"A special shipbuilding event has been confirmed at Wizard Orb. It appears to be an event to create a large magic ship. The verification team believes that this quest is the key to clearing the event"

"What kind of quest is it?"

"The difficulty level is A and the NPC who is giving the quest is named Noah"

I see...that makes sense when you say it's a key. Noah is a famous person known for Noah's Ark. If a magic ship is made by such a being, it must be amazing.

Then everyone turns their attention to me...this can not be...

"Takuto-san, can you go to the Wizard Orb?"

"Yes, I can go..."

I can't help but whisper...

"Yes, you can go there! Then will you take this quest? I'll buy your quest information"

No, no. Wait a minute...it's difficulty level A, okay? I can't do it.

"There aren't many people who can go to Wizard Orb...can you do me a favor?"

Apparently, only mages can go to the Wizard Orb. Then I thought it would be good if Rekka went, but it's a story that difficulty level A is impossible at a mage party.

"Haa~...I'll give it a try, but please don't get your hopes up"

"I know. I'll leave it to you to make a base and get food"

So it was decided that I was going to Wizard Orb. Not knowing how long it would take, I hurried to Aquas, made arrangements to go to the magic country of Wizard Orb and logged out.
