Chapter 100： End of 1 stage

After returning to State Island, Ethan first went to the guild to conduct some value evaluations, including the death magic stone he brought back this time.

As he expected, the value of this death magic stone is very high, and the guild attaches great importance to it and is willing to directly purchase this magic stone of Ethan.

"The magic stone can be sold to you. I want a brand new ship that fully meets my requirements."

This request did not surprise the guild. Such a requirement also meets their needs for training excellent adventurers. Therefore, the guild agreed very happily and made an excellent offer-as long as the request made by Ethan, the shipyard can The premise will be satisfied.

Then, based on the final finalized price of the last ship, how much other supplies do I need to compensate Ethan? Yes, this death magic stone is so valuable, in exchange for a completely customized new ship, it can also be exchanged for a lot of materials.

With the guild responsible for guaranteeing and providing all the materials needed for shipbuilding, the shipyard sent a special reception staff to be responsible for contacting Ethan.

"Hello, my name is Pete. I will be responsible for contacting you for a while, and after customizing the new ship, you can ask me any additional requirements, and then I will respond to the shipyard."

"Hello, my name is Ethan."

They have signed an agreement of intent before. Next, Ethan needs to determine the basic ship type of his new ship, and then add or delete facilities on this framework.

Looking at a bunch of models in a dedicated exhibition room, Ethan noticed that there were a lot of ship types that he had never seen before. Some of them were marked with ‘in stock’ and some were marked with ‘out of stock’.

"These logos are in stock, which are some of the more common ship types. The shipyard will prepare several ships for customers who need them for a long time."

There is no need to explain if there is no stock. It proves that these ship types do not have too many people to choose. In order to avoid piled up in the warehouse and become scraps, they will not be manufactured in advance. They will only be specially manufactured when someone puts forward a demand.

"Choose this for the basic ship type."

Ethan chose a more general ship type, similar to the Galen-type sailboat he knew in his previous life, and basically the same size, belonging to a large sailing warship.

Three decks and a large displacement, so that this kind of ship has a huge internal space, Ethan can carry out a variety of special transformations according to his own needs at will.

The only trouble is that this large sailing warship has three masts, the main sail and the auxiliary sails on it, making this kind of ship very cumbersome to control, and it is not a ship that can be driven by one or two people.

"By the way, I have a question, can I use any technology to reduce the number of drivers to a minimum."

Pete glanced at Ethan, this kind of request is not surprising, especially buyers buying large ships will have similar questions. After all, the population of Calm Sea is not particularly large, and the number of adventurers is also limited. Even a large team can barely make up the number of people to control a large sailing ship.

If you make a detailed division, including what combatants, gunners, etc., few adventure teams in the entire Sea of ​​Calm can make up so many people.

This is also an important reason why large sailing warships are rare in calm seas.

"In fact, we have made some optimizations on these large sailing boats and have reduced the number of operators as much as possible... By the way, how many crew members do you have?"

"This..." Ethan touched his nose awkwardly: "Only myself."

Pete was taken aback. Looking at Ethan's appearance, he didn't seem to be ready to recruit more people to board his ship, so is this a determined adventurer who takes his own route?

This kind of adventurer is not very difficult to see, but it is very rare to have such a good mix and even buy a large ship. Pete has only seen the one in front of him after working in the shipyard for so many years.

"If this is the case...please allow me to introduce you to the exclusive technology of this shipyard." Pete led Ethan to another blank table, where there was nothing, just like an ordinary table: "Yi Mo A large sailboat with stone technology as an auxiliary means."

Pete flicked lightly on the platform, after which a brilliance rose from the ordinary platform, and a white three-dimensional image was formed.

Ethan's eyes widened. Didn't expect that such technology is still hidden in the shipyard? This holographic image reminded him of Tony's laboratory.

Then, Pete introduced to him what a sailing boat was like with the aid of magic stone technology.

Generally, it is still a Galen-type sailing warship, but this ship is equipped with special devices with magic stone technology as the core in many inconspicuous places.

For example, the magic stone stabilization device that makes the ship more stable; the water supply system that uses the water purification magic stone technology as the main body by extracting seawater; the kitchen facility with the fire attribute and ice attribute magic stone as the core technology; special reinforcement can even adjust the temperature to facilitate storage The storage room; completely personalized design bedroom, dining room and bathroom. At the same time, some cabins can be modified according to needs to become special rooms that meet his requirements.

In addition, the most important thing is that the entire ship can be maneuvered through a special magic stone console, which means that Ethan can completely pilot the ship with one person.

"What does the console look like?"

"In general, it is not much different from this platform. It is installed next to the steering wheel. You can adjust the specific settings of all the sails on the ship and all the magic stone cannons on the ship through the console."

In order to facilitate Ethan's understanding, Pete also used this table to simulate the operation of the console, and Ethan has a more intuitive understanding of what a sailboat is assisted by magic stone technology.

To put it simply, it's a bit like playing a video game. The operation is still foolish. As long as you have no brains, you can easily control this galen ship with a displacement of thousands of tons.

"Very good, just make it according to this standard."

In addition to his extra proposal to transform a casting workshop, this Galen ship using magic stone technology is exactly the ship he needs. Originally, he also considered using magic technology to transform a similar ship by himself. He didn't expect this world to be the same. Possess a more complete technology.

"I still don't know enough about magic stone technology, there are many secrets in this world."

The previous magic stone armor, and now this sailing boat that uses magic stone technology, he found that he has not really understood the world, and now he is even more looking forward to what kind of world the other side of the storm sea is like.

"If you buy this kind of ship, there are still many problems to be solved."

"For example?"

"What level of magic stone does the above equipment need to be equipped with?"

Ethan understands that these devices are all the same, with basically the same function, but equipped with different magic stones, the price is very different.

The best thing is of course that it can be used until the day the ship is scrapped, but it must be assembled with core-level magic stones. Ethan must not be able to afford it, so I can only choose a lower one. In this case It is necessary to consider the consumption and replacement of magic stones, there will be some small differences in those equipment.

"It feels like high, medium, and low."

Ethan also noticed that Pete did not show all the magic stone technology to himself, guessing that he had fully considered the amount of funds he had in his hand, and they would not display the technology that he absolutely could not afford. .

Among other things, magic stones can create shields. He already knows this. He also used the magic stones' ability to reverse the protection magic and apply them to his own equipment, but Pete didn’t even mention shields. In the final analysis, there is this kind of technology, and it is not what he consumes now.

The shield generator that can protect an entire ship, at least you have to get another magic stone of the same grade as the death magic stone.

"How long will it take to get this ship?"

"One month is enough. All these equipments are in stock. It only takes some time to install them on the ship This also includes the debugging time. If you simply install it, it will take less than ten days. "

Galen-type sailing shipyards also have stocks, and many of them have just been built. All the needs of Ethan can be met by only some modifications to the internal structure and facilities.

"Very good."

It's only a month. He can wait on the island until everything is done, and drive the new ship away. During this time, he can adjust his state and head straight to the stormy sea after going out to sea.

"How many magic stone cannons do you need?"

"How many doors can I install now?"

Pete calculated the remaining funds of Lower Ethan in his mind, and gave a very accurate figure: "There are probably ten doors on each side, and two doors on the bow."

This is the biggest limit, and after being equipped, Ethan did not have the money to buy enough magic stones to serve as ammunition, but Ethan still asked for the largest number, and required them to be deployed on the second deck, usually hidden In the cabin.

"The magic stone can be obtained later, and it can even be added on-site on the island. Cannons are not available anywhere."

In this way, it only took less than half a day. Ethan squandered all the wealth he had accumulated in the past two years, leaving only a small part of his life for the next period of time, and buying supplies when he went out to sea.

Coming out of the shipyard, Ethan looked at the setting sun that had fallen to sea level, and felt that this meant that his new life had come to an end. When the sun rises tomorrow, his life will enter a new chapter. .

"Maybe it's an illusion?"

In any case, his life will indeed turn a new page. Brand-new ships and brand-new adventures are waiting for him, and he is also beginning to look forward to such a brand-new future.
