Chapter 280 Cruising
"Report sir, we are about to arrive at Red Harbor!"
On the warship of the Zanye Detachment, Skyler was sorting out the senbei from the Warring States Period when he suddenly heard a report from the detachment members.
Skyler hurriedly put down the senbei and ran outside. Finally, she was able to experience the bubble lift in Hong Kong.
When I came to the deck, the warship had already put away its sails, and even the engine had stopped running. With the little power left, the warship sailed towards the Red Harbor.
It's not that the driver is careful, but he has never tried the Bubble Lift in Hong Kong, and he doesn't know what kind of equipment it is, and he doesn't know whether it is strong or not. If someone accidentally scratches it, What should I do if the bubble lift cannot be used?
It is a trivial matter to be held accountable by the world government. If Skyler is unhappy, then the trouble will be big. Therefore, it is better to slow down and the driver is not willing to make mistakes.
At this time, there are many ships on both sides of the Red Harbor, most of which belong to the world government, and some of them belong to the major alliance countries.
After all, envoys or kings from allied countries can't be alone or have only one ship when they come to the World Conference. They all come together with a whole fleet.
The king, envoys, and some servants and guards can go up to Mary Gioia, but those ordinary guards or ministers with insufficient levels are not allowed to go up.
Therefore, they waited near the Red Harbor, waiting for their king or envoys to return to their respective countries together.
At this time, the fleets of most of the participating countries participating in the World Conference have returned, but there are still a small number of participating countries that have other affairs with the world government or the Tianlong people, so not all of them left.
When Skyler saw these ships, he was a little upset to think that some of them had experienced the Red Harbor and the bubble elevator more than himself.
But after all, it was the first time to experience the elevator, so Skyler didn't express this emotion.
At this time, the staff of Honggang had also begun to assist in the command. The cooperation between the warship and Honggang was very accurate.
As far as the scale of a single ship is concerned, the warships of the Zhanye Detachment are undoubtedly huge.
After all, this is a huge warship that can accommodate thousands of navies, and at its limit, it can accommodate two thousand more prisoners.
If we only look at the configuration, the warships of the Zhanye Detachment can even be said to be the most luxurious warships in the navy.
Although Kong, Sengoku, Zefa and others have higher military ranks, they should be equipped with better, larger, and more luxurious warships, but due to the important reason of time, their warships are not as good as Skyler's warships.
After all, the engines and weapons of warships, at the speed of research and development by the navy and the world government, can basically complete a major update in five years, and it can even be said to be a replacement in ten years.
In the Mesozoic Era, the most brand-new warship is Karp's dog-head warship. After all, he has the most missions, and it is not too much to ask for a new warship every few years.
But Garp's latest dog-headed warship is also a year earlier than Skyler, and it is stuck at the time when new engines and new weapons are introduced.
Therefore, speaking of which, Garp still uses the engines and weapons of the previous generation.
The warships of the Zhanye Detachment just happened to catch up. Four years ago, after returning from the righteous expedition, Kong and others specially approved Skyler's Zhanye Detachment to be equipped with lieutenant general-level warships, and the materials used are also the best and latest. of.
Unless next year, when a new phase of technology is implemented, no one will have a more luxurious warship than Skyler.
At this time, the warship was docked at the designated lifting area of Hong Kong, and several mechanical arms were stretched out from the huge device on the ground. The mechanical arms had suction cups that were raised to the diameter of a normal person.
"hole~"
The suction cup was attached to the hull, making a loud noise, and the deck shook slightly, but Skyler didn't pay attention, but concentrated on watching the operation of the mechanical arm.
After all, who can refuse the beauty of industry?
After the suction cup was absorbed and stabilized, the mechanical arm rose slowly, and finally even broke away from the huge device. With only four slings, the warship tongs stopped in the air.
Although it stopped, Skyler felt that the warship might fall at any time, but this feeling disappeared quickly.
Because many small mechanical arms protruded from the huge device, spit out bubbles one by one on the bottom of the ship, the hull, and the large mechanical arms, and glued them to them.
When the small mechanical arm was retracted, the warship was ready to go up and down. It seemed to be a long time, but Skyler, who was watching, knew that the whole process took less than a minute.
If it was the previous crawler machine, one minute would not even be enough time to adjust the shape of the warship on the transport platform, but on this bubble machine, the preparations have already been completed.
One end of the huge mechanical arm was attached to the hull, and the other end was clamped to the sling. After the preparations were completed, several gear-like wheels protruded from this end.
The wheels seemed to be able to provide enough friction and bite force. As the wheels turned, the huge warship began to lift off slowly.
Watching this scene, Skyler turned to Nurkic and said, "Nurkic, what will happen if these bubbles burst?"
Nurkic said with a speechless face, "Sir, there are about a thousand people on our warship, so don't make trouble!"
"I'm just thinking about it, why are you so nervous?"
Skyler was very dissatisfied with Nurkic's "stress response", and then said: "Think about it, although these bubbles seem to be stable, what if the enemy's attack is accompanied by the launch process?" ?
Or if there is extreme weather and the boat has to use a lift, isn't that a risk? "
Hearing Skyler's "sophistry", Nurkic fell silent. After all, it is rare that his chief actually found the right excuse!
"Does that require me to write a proposal to the World Government?"
Nurkic asked, but Skyler shook his head and said: "Tell them, they will only feel that they should, people, they just have to pay for their mistakes, and they will realize it."
Hearing Skyler's words, Nurkic's speechless look reappeared on his face. Sure enough, this is his chief. It's normal to be inconspicuous. Occasional flashes of inspiration? It was really just a flash of inspiration.
After a flash, there is nothing left.
Using only 1/3 of the time required by the crawler, the warship has already crossed the red earth continent and fell into the sea of the new world again.
Leaving the port, the engine of the warship roared again, and Skyler also went back to sort out his senbei.
After sorting out the senbei, Skyler returned to the deck and asked, "Nurkic, where are we now?"
"Report sir! There are still thirty nautical miles to reach the G-5 branch."
Hearing Nurkic's answer, Skyler nodded and continued to ask, "Have you found any pirates?"
"not yet."
Skyler frowned and said, "Then inspect the sea area, and return to the G-5 base if there are no pirates."
"Yes, sir!"
Nurkic replied quickly, and the warship began to turn around, no longer going straight to the G-5 branch, but spiraling in circles, and began to patrol the surrounding waters.
Finally, when the sky was getting dark and Skyler had finished his dinner, there was a report from the lookout.
"Report! A pirate ship with a population of about 200 people was found ahead. Do you want to pursue it?!"
"Two hundred people? It's a little less, but let's treat it as a post-meal digestion exercise!"
catch up! "
