v2 Chapter 77： The appearance of the new battleship

The Aurora and Eternity reached a verbal alliance agreement. Cleo promised to do his best to help Ethan get any items he wanted on the island, but this promise is only limited to him, he will not use himself. The crew came to joke.

His statement will make his crew more loyal. The sailors who were rescued by Ethan also immediately stated that he and his captain would do their best to help Ethan, in order to report on Ethan’s rescue from the island. Kindness.

Ethan did not refuse. The other party's willingness to repay the favor is actually a good thing. Moreover, he will not really let the other party be cannon fodder to help him break the right path. He just needs some labor from the Eternal now. .

"Although I don't know what is on this island, I think it is enough to meet the needs of our two ships."

Before returning to his boat, Ethan finally gave a piece of advice: "By the way, the water on this island is a little weird. Until you really figure it out, it's best not to use it...especially for drinking."

Cleo nodded and said that he knew. He was not going to let any crew leave the Eternal. Anyway, the supplies on the ship were still sufficient, and for adventurers of their level, drinking water was the easiest problem to solve—if it’s a little bit. Larger ships will be equipped with water purification devices to directly extract clean water from the sea for use by the crew.

After Ethan reminded Cleo, he flew back to his Aurora. He did not walk back from the coast because he was not sure whether he would be attacked after he set foot on the island.

So far, he has slowly started to be attacked after reaching deep into the island, but the previous temptation has made him realize that the energy of this island will mobilize energy to attack a certain target according to the situation. He is not sure whether he has been attacked. This power is eyeing.

After 　　 fell on the deck of the Aurora, Ethan told Logan and Diana what Cleo had promised.

Diana didn't say anything, Logan thought more.

"Can you believe what this person said?"

"No." Ethan is not a naive person, he will not just trust a stranger: "However, the other party has expressed kindness, and can be treated as an ally before doing anything threatening to us."

means that cooperation is possible, but sufficient vigilance must be maintained. The face is grinning, and the stab at the back is not something that is hard to see. In this world, there is no formal legal regulation. The key factor that determines a person's behavior is the person's moral standard.

In this case, the world has maintained a considerable degree of order, and it has not become a completely chaotic world, which is already very unusual.

"Anyway, let's take a normal night's rest. The other party has just arrived here and encountered a setback. It is estimated that we will have to slow down, and we will officially explore the interior of the island until tomorrow."

Ethan and the others have been prepared for a long time, but now they have some cooperation with the Eternal, and they need to take care of this ally. Besides, Diana also needs some time to learn some ‘basic knowledge’. To explore it tomorrow is also in line with Ethan’s needs.

So this day was spent in various discussions.

Diana has a more detailed understanding of the world, and at the same time has a more knowledge of human nature. Ethan would not tell her about these things before, because Diana at that time would take everything to the good side. Think, tell her something sinister human nature she can hardly hear.

After experiencing a lot of things personally, Diana began to accept this theory. After realizing that the world is not as beautiful as she thought, Diana was a little shocked. Fortunately, with Ethan’s points before, there was not much fluctuation in general, and he slowly accepted a more ‘real’ world.

This is something she has to comprehend. Considering that she will definitely return to her own world in the future, she will see more and worse things when she lives alone, and no one will enlighten her at that time.

In the original plot, after living in human society for decades, Diana almost lost confidence in humans for a long time, and began to turn to the neutral camp to watch everything quietly. If it were not for the appearance of the destroyer, perhaps she would have been quietly. Of lurking among humans.

In the final analysis, the worldview has been impacted, and now she can accept all this better, maybe Wonder Woman will be active for a long time.

In that case, some more interesting changes might happen, but Ethan's energy is not on this matter, or even on the island he is about to explore.

He took out the stealth suit he had obtained from the assassin and spread it out on his test bench, and introduced the general capabilities of the equipment to Logan and Diana in detail.

"It looks like it is made of some special polymer material..."

This is like a tights with protective parts such as breastplate, arm guard, and shin. It doesn't look very big, it seems that only very thin people can wear it. Logan tried it and found that even his body can easily put on this set of equipment.

"Are you sure this is not something you brought back from a world with high technology?"

Diana can't see anything yet, but Logan feels that the appearance of this thing is full of futuristic aura. Although there are magical things such as magic stones in this world, the equipment in front of him seems to be more than a magical problem.

"The assassin came back here from the next sea."

Ethan didn't know much about this sea area, especially this suicide route, so he didn't find anything wrong. But now think about it, although the ship driven by the assassin can dive underwater, apart from this, there is nothing special about that ship, and it's no big deal compared to his own ship.

At that time, he didn't realize that something was wrong, and only then did he realize it was abnormal when he remembered it.

This route is far more dangerous than imagined. Even if he is driving from another direction to the central island, the more dangerous he goes, there is something wrong.

"That guy’s boat is too ordinary...Usually, there are such boats everywhere in this sea area. That boat should only be used to disguise his identity."

I want to understand this, and understand that the suit in front of him represents the strength of the next sea area, and he began to guess the general situation of the next area based on this thing.

"Although I am not sure if this item is a piece of popular equipment, even if it is regarded as a high-end equipment that some people can have, it also means that most adventurers have similar low-end alternatives."

Cleo's equipment can prove this. He doesn't think that what Cleo has is a rare and rare thing in the next sea area.

"So... what does the next sea area look like?"

"Maybe the sailboat will be completely eliminated."

Ethan believes that it is impossible for a pure wooden sailboat to reach the end of this route. Even if it barely reaches the back section, it will fall into great danger.

In the central island, he has seen some ships with added metal skins and propellers made by magic stone technology. Although they have not seen real all-metal ships, this tendency is already obvious.

"You must determine what kind of ship the new ship should be as soon as possible."

Logan’s words are very reasonable. Before, Ethan wanted to design his own new ship based on the conditions on this route, but now it seems that the previous plan is still too conservative. He can't always passively follow the environment like this. Adjust his boat, in that case he doesn't know how many times he has to change boats.

"Although there are many problems, but this time I must change to a good boat."

The all-metal structure is already a matter of no suspense, even if it takes a year or two to build it, he will wait.

The displacement is not yet determined for the time being, and the specific structure of the ship has not yet been determined. What is certain is that he needs to integrate all his technologies into this new ship.

"It is certain that the new ship will definitely be a battleship."

In such a world, it is impossible to build a yacht, right? Considering the possible maritime conflicts warships are almost inevitable.

"Although the inside is completely another matter, but we can discuss, what kind of appearance should we choose?"

The few people present are all energetic people. Even if they don't sleep, it will not affect their actions the next day. After discussing together for a while, the topic strayed unknowingly.

From worrying about what kind of battleship should be built in the next sea area, to what kind of appearance should be chosen is more in line with the aesthetics of several people.

"Battleship?"

Diana's impression of warships is still in the sailing age, so she has no suggestions, but Logan has a lot of affection for some weapons of World War I and World War II.

"Is the tonnage too big?"

"For now, a larger tonnage may not be a bad thing." Before he thought it would be enough to build a 10,000-ton steel battleship, but looking at the suit on the table, it might be bigger and stronger. Some are insured.

"How about Iowa?"

Considering the survivability at sea and the combat effectiveness of a single ship, battleship is the first choice. The Iowa class should be the last battleship, and it is also the battleship that Logan is most familiar with.

Ethan touched his chin, recalling the appearance of the Iowa-class in his impression, which was generally in line with his aesthetics, although he personally preferred the battlecruisers Hood and Bismarck-class battleships.

Of course, no matter which one you choose, it has only the same appearance or even similarity, and the kernel is completely different. Tony Stark's black technology will not be discussed, there must be a more powerful magic stone technology and a magic circle that Ethan will definitely arrange.

"A battleship that emits energy beams and has an energy shield... I feel like I have seen it before..."
