The Final Evolutionary Quest! The Origin of the Black Pearl! Chapter 12 Figurehead
Chapter 12 Figurehead
After hearing Fang Senyan's order, the pirates were a little surprised. They probably thought that the new captain liked to pick up soap, so they quickly went to do it. Jiao Shi breathed a sigh of relief. He obviously didn't want to see the slaughter of prisoners of war, so Fang Senyan also took his feelings into consideration in time.
Under Fang Senyan's exquisite dispatch and arrangement, this three-masted "Gallen" galley began to quickly regain vitality. The thick sails on the three masts were full of wind. These experienced pirates were slightly unfamiliar with the control of the three-masted sailing ship on the deck, and quickly became familiar with the work in their hands. Fang Senyan kicked them on the buttocks from time to time, making them work faster as if they were wound up.
As the three-masted galley slowly started moving, Fang Senyan also received a reminder of the nightmare mark:
"You have control over the 3,100-ton ship "Sam."
"There are now 117 plot pirates under your command."
"Milestone: Pirate Captain achieved!"
"You have obtained the title: Pirate Captain, your deterrence to ordinary pirates is increased by 100%, and your underwater breathing time is extended by 10 minutes.
"When you are on the sea, you can effectively increase the attack power/defense power/movement speed of friendly forces within one kilometer by 15%! (Including ships, this effect does not stack with other pirate captain effects).
In addition, when you successfully capture/kill other ships and enemies at sea, you also gain the special ability to view the precious special parts/precious special materials/precious special equipment related to naval battles on them. "
"Milestone: Pirate Captain appears. "
"Pirate Captain: Your reputation among all pirates has reached worship. You own a ship with a displacement of more than 7,000 tons, and the number of plot pirates on it cannot be less than 300. "
"Tip: After completing this milestone, you will be awarded the title of Black Iron level."
Looking at this series of prompts, Fang Senyan immediately equipped the new title of the pirate captain. Then he looked around on his own ship, but found nothing new. Then he went to the dilapidated pirate ship of the one-eyed dragon Hogg.
At this time, he suddenly found that for some reason, a strange light was emitting from the bow. The light was different from that emitted by equipment/props. Fang Senyan immediately jumped on it. After searching around, he found that the light was emitted by the figurehead. When he looked carefully, a series of data appeared in front of him:
Porpoise Statue (Figure)
Equipment Location: Bow
Equipment Nature: Special plot equipment. This type of equipment cannot be taken out of this world and can only be used by the natives of the world, but it can also be sold to the nightmare space. Only with relevant Only the contractor with the ability has the ability to detect and collect special plot equipment.
Origin: Madrid
Equipment rarity: light blue
Material: oak
Attachable device: Gem Eye.
Effect: Increase the ship's speed at sea by 3% and the durability of the hull by 3%
Installation location: bow (only)
Description: Only the captain can use a wise eye to find the excellent special parts and special materials on the enemy ship, and place these parts on your ship to make your beloved ship more powerful! Of course, the premise is that you must occupy the ship to do this.
Description: Or if you think these materials are not strong enough, you can also sell them to the space in exchange for a large number of general points or potential points, and only one of the two can be selected.
Now that he has found this thing, Fang Senyan will not hesitate to buy it. He hesitantly called someone over, lifted up the figurehead, and installed it on the three-masted "Gallen" galley that was occupied at this time. The replaced figurehead was a common blank board, so it naturally could not be sold, and was thrown into the sea like a waste.
After raising the sail, Fang Senyan issued an order to sail to the edge of the battlefield, trying to avoid the enemy, and at the same time ordered all the gun positions on the ship to be removed. The reason for doing this is very simple:
The temporary small group that Fang Senyan currently has was established for less than half a day, and now more than half of the pirates have suddenly joined. It is almost impossible to expect them to be "well-trained, disciplined, and efficient in cooperation."
But fighting on the sea is inseparable from these twelve words! The sailors on each ship must be completely integrated with the ship. As a group, the fighting power will be stronger. On the contrary, the strength of an individual in a battle at sea is much closer to the back.
Fang Senyan is a man, not a god. No matter how strong he is, he can't turn these pirates who are already scattered into an iron army all of a sudden! So he made up his mind from the beginning, that is, to engage in a chaotic battle with the enemy! There is no artillery battle with the enemy at all.
Therefore, the ship he controls now only pursues absolute speed and survivability, and specifically attacks those ships with relatively slow speeds, and engages in melee combat with them as much as possible!
Of course, for those warships with powerful long-range firepower, they have definitely faced such scenes many times. Their ships must also carry equally powerful sailors, and they are not afraid of engaging in boarding battles with the enemy! Under normal circumstances, the hundreds of pirates under Fang Senyan's command are almost not enough.
But now that Fang Senyan had obtained the title of Pirate Captain, he could already strengthen these pirates very well, and his potion also had a very powerful buff effect. Moreover, there was Reef, a powerful MT who was good at disrupting the enemy's formation.
This was equivalent to three tigers leading a group of sheep to charge, and the tigers to tear open the enemy's defense line. The pirates, who were good at bullying the weak and fearing the strong, had to do very simple things: just follow and rush forward, then shout and take out the axe to chop at the enemy's head!
Of course, someone would be injured or even die in this process! Fang Senyan expressed great regret for this, but he really didn't have time to train these pirates. The battlefield was also the best training ground. Those who could survive must be strong!
Fang Senyan ordered to cruise around the periphery of the battlefield and not enter the battle. After they sailed on the sea for half an hour, all the pirates finally had some basic running-in, and some other old pirates were organized to transform the hull.
The sea at this time was still quite vast for humans, and sailing was often calculated in "years". In such a time, if the ship was broken and sailed back to the dock for repair, it would have sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Therefore, many older sailors would do carpentry and part-time maintenance and repair of the hull. Fang Senyan did not ask them to go to the battlefield, but proposed to make the ship faster and thicker, and it was acceptable to pay the price of having no long-range attack capability. These relatively older pirates were also happy to do this work.
Then Fang Senyan turned around and said to Cambi who had just come out of the cabin:
"How many British sailors are left on the ship?"
Cambi thought about it, scratched his head with some difficulty, and then pulled a thin pirate next to him over:
"Hey, how many British guys are left?"
The pirate shrugged:
"Well, I remember they were all imprisoned in the bottom cabin, I'll go count them."
He ran downstairs, but less than two minutes later, there was a piercing gunshot from below, and then there was the pirate's shrill scream:
"Oh no, they plan to blow up the ship and rob the lifeboat to escape!"
It turned out that although the British surrendered on the surface, they later found that the pirates on the ship were relatively weak except for Fang Senyan and the other three, and many pirates couldn't even call out the names of their companions, so they immediately became disloyal.
The Sam originally belonged to these British people, and they were very familiar with the environment. Although they were locked in the bottom cabin, they still found weapons under the leadership of a major. They were about to escape successfully, but they were discovered unexpectedly.
After hearing the screams, Fang Senyan's face suddenly changed. He suddenly raised his foot and stepped heavily on the deck! Fang Senyan used all his strength in this kick. With a very crisp "click", he stomped several long cracks on the extremely solid deck.
Amid the flying sawdust and dust, Fang Senyan bent his knees and half-knelt on the ground, and then hit the hole hard with his elbow. The poor deck could no longer withstand the huge impact force. It exploded with a click, forming a huge hole, and Fang Senyan fell to the lower cabin.
He ran hard, and after turning a corner, he saw a British lieutenant with a look of fearless death on his face, holding a torch and approaching the gunpowder depot. Fang Senyan unhesitatingly used the power of the Barbarian Demon Eyes, and charged forward with great ferocity. Then, with one punch, he sent the lieutenant flying seven or eight meters in the air, and the torch was extinguished by Fang Senyan!
Fang Senyan exhaled forcefully, shook his head and walked in front of him, saying with a sullen face:
"People have no intention of hurting tigers, but tigers have the intention of hurting people's hearts! I was going to let you go, and I didn't want to treat you in an extreme way, but you were going to take my life!"
Indeed, if the rebellious sailors' riot plan succeeded, and the gunpowder magazine on such a ship exploded, Fang Senyan and the other two would be dead or skinned, and Fang Senyan's previous painstaking layout and planning would inevitably turn into a bubble!
