Chapter 419: Genius Swordsman (I)
"Out to sea? No. β
"I'll help you erase the marker from your body, and then banish the marker, and you'll be safe on this voyage."
The middle-aged warrior monk smiled slightly, and slowly put a calloused palm on Xia Er's forehead. Charr didn't resist, but kept his eyes on the monk's palm, only to see the dazzling rays of the sun released from his palm.
It's as if the fish bones that are stuck in the throat and can only be felt by swallowing hard saliva suddenly disappear. Charles suddenly felt a little lighter, as if he had been fully rested.
"Wait!" Seeing that the warrior monk pulled away his palm and wanted to leave, Charles stopped him, "Can the master do me another favor?" β
"You say." Warrior Monk Feiqi nodded.
"Could you please ask the Master to visit Black Rod and his mage's wife and tell them what happened to me? To be honest, I'm angry about what the Deepwater City Hall is doing, but I'm being hunted by the Shadow Thieves Guild, so it's inconvenient to visit the two of them. Charles said lightly.
If it were another aboriginal NPC, they might have laughed when they heard Charles's words, and one player said it as if it was easy to be summoned by the lord and the lord's wife.
But the middle-aged warrior monk's face was always calm, and after a little muttering when he heard the words, he agreed: "Visit Kelburn. Black Rod and Lyra. Silver Hands? That's fine, as a god of Ogmar, you deserve to be treated with dignity in Waterdeep, not in such a hurry. Besides, you've got the favor of Ms. Erastro...... In public and private, the mage couple should be courteous to you. β
As he spoke, the warrior monk stepped forward, and a powerful sun circle suddenly appeared on the soles of his feet. This is the supernatural movement ability of the Sun Soul Warrior Monk. [Escape].
The warrior monk disappeared in front of his eyes in an instant. Charles returned to the cabin with peace of mind. Continue to study the Divine Scroll.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the 'Dragon Roar Fleet' lifted anchor on time, and a total of 21 ships all raised their sails, leaving the port of Waterdeep City and completing the formation in the deep-sea area far from the city.
Charles stood by the rudder of the main ship and watched as the female captain operated the brass-colored rudder wheel.
With the main ship as the center, the other twenty ships spread out in a circle, and the outermost six were spread out. The "destroyer" was relatively small in size and had only double-deck cabins. These nimble double-decker gunboats essentially acted as scouts, responsible for reconnaissance and patrolling the outermost perimeter.
Then there were six other three-tiered gunboats interspersed in a circular formation. Charles stared at a three-story battleship passing by the main ship, and looked at the black barrels protruding from the gun windows on the upper and lower floors, densely packed, at least twenty at first glance, and couldn't help but tingle his scalp.
In addition to the twelve gunboats that could fight on the sea, the remaining eight with a deep draft were undoubtedly cargo ships. In fact, the battleship can also carry goods on it, so you can know how big the deal of the 'Dragon Roar Fleet' is, no wonder the female captain Delori. Ipugil has come forward.
"How. These three-masted battle gunboats were the maritime weapons of the Ipugir family, with a total of 48 broadside guns on the left and right sides of the hull. There were 16 mortars on the upper deck, 3 each for the bow and stern guns. β
"The whole ship has 70 guns, and a salvo can destroy those tattered pirate ships."
Captain DeLori, who handed over the helm to a crew member as soon as the fleet was smooth, stood beside Charles and followed his gaze, a confident smile on her lips.
"What about the brigs?" Charles wondered.
"Each ship has 40 guns." Without thinking, DeLori replied, "Also, the Dragon's Roar under our feet has a total of 104 guns, which seems to be a few more than the three-masted battleship, but the data specifications of each gun are very particular. β
Charles nodded in understanding. He also wanted to get a fleet, so he naturally inquired about the information of the ships in the world of "Dawn".
Overall, the scientific progress of the ships in the game is actually similar to the Renaissance era of the earth, and the most powerful cannon is around 2.5 tons. Such a heavy gun loaded with 32-pound solid bullets and fired, the range and destructive power were quite terrifying.
"There are five such fleets in our Ipugir family, three of which are distributed along the Sea of Swords, from north to south, Waterdeep, Am's capital city of Ascatla, and southern port of Carlin."
"The other two, in the Inland Sea, in the Sea of Falling Stars, anchored in Procamp and Aragon."
DeLori's words made Charles' heart beat faster.
With five fleets, such a maritime armed force is completely comparable to that of any independent country, it is no wonder that the Ipugil family firmly sits on the throne of commercial giants in Waterdeep, and I don't know how many generations it has been inherited.
After a brief conversation, Delorie made her rounds on the upper deck, and her captain's job was not easy. Charles stood for about ten minutes, and then went back to the cabin to study the magic.
The voyage went on for two days, and Charles remained in the cabin, carrying plenty of water and food in his backpack, so he did not have to go out to eat with the sailors. Outside the porthole, the sun and the moon rose, and in the blink of an eye, it was the night of the third day.
"Boom"
Sitting on the bed with a scroll in hand, Charles was suddenly surprised by the sound of cannons across the night sky, jumped out of bed barefoot, and looked out of the porthole, where only the lights of the fleet flickered.
After thinking about it, Charles put on his shoes and went to the captain's room, but as soon as he opened the door, he ran into the silver-haired swordsman Alamir.
Entering the room with Alamil, she heard the silver-haired swordsman report to her sister: "There is a small group of pirates harassing you, but you have been repelled by the brigs. β
"Hmm."
Delori looked up and smiled, "It's more than a third of the way through, and there will be more and more pirates coming to Nlanthel, so you need to patrol more Alamil." β
"What are you doing here?" Deloree immediately looked at Charles.
"Ahem...... I came to see what was going on, it turned out to be a small group of pirate harassment, so I went back. Charles hurriedly took his leave, and followed Alamil out of the captain's room.
Bang.
The doorway was closed behind him, but the silver-haired swordsman was still standing in the aisle, turning his back to Charles and saying coldly, "You are a god?" β
"I guess so." Charles wasn't surprised that Alamil knew his identity, and the Sun Soul Warrior Monk had said a lot in front of the Ipugil siblings two days ago.
"Come hereβ"
Alamil glanced at him and walked up the wooden ladder to the deck.
The upper deck of the main ship was illuminated by a magic lamp, and Alamil found a relatively empty area, pulled out his silver long sword, and said, "Fight me." β
His words were cold and hard, but Charles, who had heard of his character, didn't care.
"Contest?" Although the opponent was a hero-rank swordsman, Charles was not afraid, on the contrary, his eyes were full of eagerness.
Taking out his shield and summoning the Stormer sword, Charles stared at the silver-haired swordsman opposite him and whispered, "Fight!" β
"Your sword ......" Aramil raised his eyebrows slightly, and strange flames seemed to burst out from under his eyes, "Let's see if you're qualified to use this weapon!" (To be continued.) )
