Chapter 733: Visit

After the cannon shells were fired, some blackened golden shells fell out of the mechanical port under the cannon with a clang. The shells still emitting a little gunpowder did not wake the mermaid Hailing from the shock. About two minutes later, Hailing breathed a sigh of relief. In her opinion, such a powerful weapon without any spiritual fluctuations should be very troublesome to manufacture in large quantities, just like a magic weapon, how could everyone in the world have one.

The patrol boat still broke through the waves, and the mermaid Hailing stood at the bow with a lot of thoughts in mind.

Seeing that Hailing didn't say anything, the magic cube simply stood on the side of the ship and looked at the sea. In this world, whether it is land or ocean, it is difficult for intelligent creatures to care about technological details. For example, this patrol boat, whether it is the workmanship of the hull or the metal welding or the processing technology, has far exceeded the scope of the Shenwu Continent, but this mermaid standing on the boat did not pay attention to those very small details. The brain thinking of the intelligent creatures in this world has long been fixed. It is difficult for them to recognize the technological strength of the Mechanical Empire through the characteristics of screws or even steel plate technology. Perhaps, in their opinion, as long as they practice, they can do anything.

After sailing for a long time, the mermaid Hailing felt the direction of advance through a special method. There is a life forbidden zone there.

"The gate of hell is ahead! Why are you going there?" Hailing asked with an unnatural look.

The gate of hell? Mofang was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he realized that Hailing was talking about the active volcano. Yes, the active volcano is no different from the gate of hell in the eyes of people who don't know its true situation. Life cannot survive there. The terrible ground fire that can destroy everything, as well as those toxic substances, the erupting volcano is a life forbidden zone. The reason why Mofang chose the volcano is its horror. Due to the horror of the ground fire, few people dare to approach it.

"My factory is there. Enter the cabin to avoid the toxic volcanic ash for the time being. You can come out after entering the factory."

Hailing looked at Mofang.

"You won't kill me at the gate of hell?"

"I won't do such a boring thing. I just invite you to visit. There is no way. There is only this place nearby where there are no creatures and no one cares. In my opinion, this is a fairyland." Mofang opened the cabin door and made an invitation gesture to the mermaid.

The mermaid Hai Ling frowned, swung her tail and walked into the bridge. The unique layout of the bridge attracted Hai Ling's attention. The automatically working steering gear, various displays constantly changing screens to show strange images, and the transparent glass in front of her had a very wide field of vision. The mermaid was not particularly interested in such strange things. After looking around, she focused her eyes on the front.

The patrol boat sailed at high speed into the volcanic ash-covered area. Hai Ling found that although she could not see how far in front of her, a display clearly showed the scenery in front, including the volcanic island hidden in the volcanic ash.

The weather was not very good today. There was no wind. Volcanic ash and thick smoke covered the entire volcanic island.

The patrol boat began to slow down after approaching the volcanic island and approached the dock by inertia. The Magic Cube built an airlock at the factory location. When the patrol boat entered the large airlock, the gate closed and began to clean up the toxic air and volcanic ash. Soon, Hai Ling saw through the glass that she was in a strange building, and the volcanic ash was absorbed and cleaned.

"Devil?" Hai Ling was tense and stared at an intelligent robot passing by in front of her with all white eyes. The intelligent robot looked at Hai Ling with red mechanical eyes and walked away without looking back.

"They are not devils, but my subordinates. Red eyes do not mean evil. Please, the factory I mentioned is in front."

The Cube got off the boat first, followed by Hai Ling. After passing through several gates, the Cube brought Hai Ling to the huge dock building where battleships were built. Suddenly, the detection equipment detected Hai Ling's violent mental power and heartbeat. She was nervous and scared. The mermaid Hai Ling actually wanted to turn around and run away. Everything in front of her was beyond her cognition. There were densely packed red-eyed monsters that looked like people but not people, busy up and down, all kinds of pipelines, and a huge ship in the factory. Sparks kept flashing and falling from it. The huge factory building made the mermaid dare to swear that she had never seen such a big one. That big ship was even bigger than all the ships recorded in the documents of the Imperial Palace...

"What is that..." Hai Ling asked tremblingly, pointing to the battleship whose hull had been completed.

"Battleship, although it has withdrawn from the stage of history, it is still invincible in Shenwu Continent. It is simple and fast to build and is suitable for the current situation. I didn't expect that this kind of big ship would regain its glory."

Mofang was right. The huge battleship had already been withdrawn from the stage of history. The withdrawal of the battleship from the stage was the inevitable result of scientific and technological progress. The emergence of powerful and long-range anti-ship missiles, precision-guided weapons, and carrier-based fighters forced the battleship to leave the battlefield. The fact that it is no longer needed on Earth does not mean that it is no longer needed on Shenwu Continent. In this world, it is the era of invincible heavy artillery. The craftsmanship is not complicated and suitable for construction. The older battleships are not easy for Mofang to use, and the more advanced ones feel like a cannon hitting a mosquito. Only the battleships of the World War II period on Earth are suitable.

"Incredible..."

This battleship brought a huge shock to Hai Ling. For a moment, she didn't know whether cooperating with Mofang was mutual benefit or inviting a wolf into the house.

The engineering robots have been working, and it will take some time for the battleship to be completed. Mofang thinks that when this battleship enters the water, it will completely change the Shenwu Continent. The battleship is modeled after the Earth's "Missouri" battleship, with a displacement of 50,000 tons, a length of 270.4 meters, a width of 33 meters, a draft of 11.6 meters, and three 406mm caliber triple-mounted main guns, arranged in front and back. In addition, there are ten twin-mounted secondary guns distributed throughout the hull, and there are also fifty anti-aircraft guns and six close defense systems. It is definitely a large hedgehog on the sea.

"How is it? We should discuss the content of the cooperation." Mofang said with a smile, and he didn't believe that this big ship couldn't scare this little girl.

"Your target is not just this sea area, right? I'm afraid the entire sea is your target."

"No, no, no~ I've said many times that I'm not interested in the sea. All I need is to sail. When I'm strong enough, I'll leave the sea and land. I won't attack your imperial palace, but I can guarantee that we are allies. For example, if an army attacks you, I can help and ensure that your interests are not violated. How about that?"

"Are you sure you will protect me when a sea tribe army attacks me?" The mermaid stared at the magic cube with her all-white eyes.

"Of course."

The magic cube is not afraid of any sea tribe army. At most, it can throw some strong poison into the ocean. It will treat it in an extraordinary time.
