Starting from Zero

After entering the water, I realized how stupid this decision was. The canal is no better than the sea. There are so many battleships moving around here to roll over the mud and sand from the bottom of the water. You can't see anything at all! There was really no way to climb back to the shore, and in the surprised gaze of the local players watching around, I opened the space door leading to the place of the Mother Earth God. "Grandma, follow me into the water! Ling! Look at the gate, don't let anyone in!" I don't want anyone to get into the Temple of Earth Mother out of curiosity!

After taking Amina into the water again, let Amina use sonar to navigate, and directly let her present the sonar image in my brain, so that I can also know the surrounding situation! Silt also interferes with the sonar, but the distance is so close, and the accuracy of the biological sonar is so high, I can barely see the 3D scan of the bottom of the water!

The shipwreck is not far in front of us. It doesn't look too small, about half the length of the Biling. We fumbled to the side of the wreck, Anana touched the hull with her hand, and then knocked. "Master, this is a metal boat!"

I also touched it. "It is indeed, and it is still a solid steel plate!" This is a real iron-clad ship, which is different from the battleship with wood inside and metal bread outside the Biling!

After the Biling was towed away, the sediment was quickly washed away. This is the channel connecting the two seas. The water flow is very fast. Without the battleship, the water is immediately clear. ! I finally saw the whole picture. It is indeed an iron-clad ship, and its shape is quite modern. It is simply an advanced modern battleship! It seems that this is not a local ship, I thought I saw a branded national flag on the ship! This is a French ship!

"Shall we go in and have a look?" Adina suggested.

"Okay!"

Anna hugged me behind my back, took me from the big hole on the boat and swam into the boat, as a mermaid in the water. The download speed is much faster than me! The ship sank last night, there is no such things as water weeds at all, and the cabin is quite clean. After going around a few cabins, we finally reached the bottom of the ship. What surprised us was that this ship uses propellers! It's no wonder the shape of the hull resembles a modern battleship. Just now, I wondered why I didn't see the sails. Now I understand!

Anna is an expert in underwater propellers, and she understands it at first glance. After a simple check, he said to me: "It's quite a low-level propeller. The power is not high because it shouldn't be fast! Moreover, this thing doesn't seem to have a waterproof function. If the cabin enters water, it will stop working!"

< p>"Fortunately, it's just junk!" I don't want others to have the same level thrusters as ours! "Let's look elsewhere!"

After checking all the cabins that can be entered, we found an ammunition depot. There are a lot of shells, but they are all relatively backward! I found the fort on the deck, picked a relatively complete cannon and checked it, the artillery seems to be more advanced than ours!

After studying the entire ship, the conclusion is that the structure and material technology of European battleships is ahead of Asia, and they can build all-metal battleships that we cannot build. Europeans also have an advantage in cannon manufacturing. The guns on this ship are more advanced than mine. But Europeans are not advanced in everything. The fire yaoformidable power in Europe is not big enough, but the artillery is very advanced, and the artillery technology in Asia is backward, but the artillery shells are powerful! A balance between the two aspects, it is estimated that the formidable power of the artillery is similar to that of the Europeans! Propeller technology should be ours so far! If the propellers in this wreck represent the level of propellers in Europe, then I think the speed of the European battleship should not be much faster! With the above conclusions, I can understand why Ashford asked me to buy fire yao technology, the original problem is here!

After the research, I began to think about how to clear the obstacles. This ship is very large and has a metal hull. Although the shell is not as thick as that of the Biling, it may be more robust than the Biling. ! It is unrealistic to blow up such a ship, the only way is to tow it away! Fortunately, there is buoyancy in the water, and the battleship is not very heavy as long as it does not leave the surface of the water. The three giant dragon and small dragon girls were called down, and the wreck was lifted up without much effort. Move the battleship to the Red Sea, find a deep water area, and put it down. It's easy to get it done!

The repair of the Biling is just a simple treatment, as long as it does not affect the navigation, anyway, the hole is underwater and does not affect the battle. Just sun the moon tonight!

The fleet finally passed the Suez Canal in mighty files, and after entering the Mediterranean, I dispersed the pirate fleet. This is the Place of Origin of my little pirate brothers. They have many old departments here. To disperse them is to find all the old ones. These pirates can greatly increase the amount of sea battle strength!

Today, there is nothing to do during the day. I can only go offline to the base and continue to be familiar with the features of B13. By 3 o'clock in the afternoon, calculating the time, the fleet should be approaching Gibraltar, so hurry up and go online! I appeared in the cabin and casually looked outside through the porthole, but I was taken aback by the situation outside. There were many more ships around the Biling.

"You are here!" Su Mi ran in suddenly.

"How did this happen?" I pointed to the mess of various ships outside. There are all types of boats around us, and there are even many fishing boats!

"Those pirates of yours brought it back!"

"Boss!" Just as Rona walked in.

"This is what you brought back?"

"Not all! Some are brought back by polar bears!" (Polar bears are the new leader of the Russian pirates)

< p>"What are these?"

"Last time we went to Asia to negotiate, we took all the elites out. The rest are old women and children. It would be nice to find these ships!"

Rona said so! The last time they came out, they took away all the elites, and then they stayed in Asia to make trouble with the Japanese. Of course, they won't find any good fleets when they come back!

"But!" Rona suddenly continued: "We brought back something you like!"

"What?"

Rona took me Leaving the cabin, I went to the cabin on the side of the ship on the opposite side, and then pointed out: "That!"

I followed her fingers and saw a wall! Outside the porthole of the Biling is a silver white wall! I couldn't see clearly through the small porthole, so I hurried up to the deck. See it clearly now! Next to us is a giant floating object. It is said that it is a floating object mainly because it seems to have no power. In front of this silver white thing is all our modified battleships pulling it forward! 500 battleships tow one thing, you can imagine it is huge! From my perspective, this thing is simply a small island floating on the sea!

"This...this...this...!" Stuttered with excitement! "What the hell is this?"

"Our spoils of war!" Lorna proudly said: "This morning let us run into our own enemy, the Gale Pirates! I joined forces with the polar bears. Get up and wipe out this regiment completely! Speaking of which is really enjoyable. We used to be rivals with the Gale Pirate regiment, but the strength of the two parties was equal, and there was always no way to take advantage of it. Instead, we lost a lot of manpower in vain! This time we just joined forces with the polar bear, and the boss, you helped us replace the new cannons and thrusters, and easily settled the scumbags of Gale!"

"Then how did this thing come from? "

"This is what we found at the base of the Gale Pirates. I heard the prisoners say that the kingdom on the shore often sent troops to clear the pirate camps, and they were uneasy. It happened that we went to Asia, and the Gale Pirates dominated. The Mediterranean has made a lot of benefits. For long-term consideration, they decided to build a floating city to bring all their families to the sea. So they spent all their savings to create this thing!"

"Sea city ?" I looked at this thing again! "Sure enough, not just in name only, but also in reality!" The Biling, which is close to three hundred and forty meters in length, is already the Hegemon in the battleship. Although it has not reached the size of an aircraft carrier, it is already quite large as a battleship. ! But Biling next to this giant floating object is like a torpedo boat parked next to an aircraft carrier! "How big is this thing?"

"I don't know exactly how long it is. I'll get the captive designer to ask!"

"Okay, hurry up! "

The designer was arrested soon. This is an NPC and a European. "Are you the designer of this thing?"

"Yes!" Although this man looks very gentle, but he is very brave. He actually broke away from the sailor behind him and stood up. "Also, don't call my baby'this thing'! You can call her Noah!"

I am dizzy! Doesn't the legendary Noah's Ark refer to this ship, right? "This...how long is Noah?"

"You mean structured data?"

"En!"

_____________________________________________________________

< p>"The total length is 23108.6 meters, the width is 2607.9 meters, the draft at full load is 297.7 meters, the side of the ship is 207.1 meters, the main control tower is 208 meters high, and the mast is 278 meters high!"

Oh my God! Is this a boat? It feels like an island! It's no wonder it's called a sea city, it's really not so big!

After digesting it for a while, I came back to his senses from the excitement. "What kind of power does this thing use? Is it a sail or a paddle? Or do you have a propeller?"

"The design uses a combination of three powers for propulsion, but for the time being, nothing is installed! This is just a void Shell!"

"Empty shell?"

"The internal cabins, propellers, boat paddles, sails, weapons, and living areas that were originally to be installed are all missing! This thing except for the shell Only the inner support frame is made, and there is nothing else!"

There is nothing so good. I am a little angry, and my voice is inevitably a little bit aggressive: "Why don't you pretend?" "

As a result, the designer yelled back with a louder voice than me: "It's not all because of you! If it wasn't for your fleet's sudden attack, we are still building it now!" His voice suddenly Eased a little. "May I ask how you plan to install Noah?"

"Of course I hope it can be done! But...!"

"That's good!" Designer Suddenly plan my words. "As long as you are willing to pay, I am willing to continue to serve you to complete her!"

"What?" The designer's response was beyond my expectations. "I attacked you, you don't hate me but you want to help me build a ship?"

"Please figure out one thing! I am not a pirate! I am Luzzo, the first Teutonic ship designer! Help pirates I designed the ship because my design was not accepted by the country. During a voyage, the pirates attacked the ship I was on. After seeing my design drawings, they actually wanted to build Noah. I had a way to fulfill my dreams. Of course I won’t give up, so I helped design and build Noah. As long as you are willing to pay for me to complete my work, I don’t care who you are!"

It turns out that this designer is German! It's not so enthusiastic about technology! Real scientists are like this. They only care about whether their work is perfect. As for what others do with this thing, they are not what they have to consider, otherwise the atomic bomb will not come out!

"How much does it cost to complete this thing?"

"I don't know this, nor did the pirates ask! I can only list the materials, prices and labor costs you need Do it yourself!"

"Okay!" I shook hands with him, and then said to the chief mate at the back: "Take Luzzo designer to the VIP room to rest!"

Luzzo After we left, Lorna and I came to Noah. After we came up, we discovered that the shape of this steel rare beast was designed according to the battleship! In the middle of the entire hull is the ship’s superstructure, which is basically the base of the weapon platform. It seems that the degree of completion is quite high, as long as the artillery is installed, it can be completed! I don't know how many guns a ship of this size needs! It is estimated that if it is full, he can pick one fleet per ship!

Standing on the deck, I suddenly realized that maybe Noah could be more than a super gun emplacement! Although the hull was designed in accordance with the architectural style of the battleship, Noah is so huge that there are four hundred-meter-wide flat decks on each side of the central superstructure area! What can the horizontal deck of 400 meters wide and tens of thousands of meters long be used for? I don’t need to explain, right?

Although I was very satisfied with the superstructure, I was completely desperate after entering the cabin! Inside the command tower are several beams, standing on it, you can see from above. The inside of the hull, as Luzzo said, was completely empty! There are some supporting structures across the huge hull, but the partitions between the cabins are not installed. The stern can be seen from the bow, and the whole is empty!

"Boss! Are you here too?" The big pot of rice jumped from the side. Everyone is here for a long time!

Rose came over and said: "What do you plan to do with this thing?"

"Finish it!"

"I will tell you in advance, this The cost of building things will not be cheaper than Isinger!"

"I know! But considering the future battle strength, I still decided to complete it!"

"In fact, it is true It doesn't cost much to build it!" Su Mei suddenly walked in from behind. "It was really expensive for you to build the Biling at the time. It was because you were completely reliant on purchases, so you spent a lot of money, but now it’s different! Luzo is free labor, and the material Isinger can be produced. Anyway, it’s his own. Just calculate the cost! Besides, the shell part of the most wasteful material of this thing has been completed, and the rest of the project will not require too much! As for labor! Is there enough skeletons in the misty Legion?"

"This calculation is the material cost I will use!"

"Of course it is not only the material cost!" Su Mei continued: "The most expensive thing is probably the artillery! Such a big battleship is complete. It's a waste to install artillery, and the magic crystal cannon is too expensive. You can calculate how many cannons can be installed on this ship?"

God! It was already a sky-high price to install cannons on the Bi Ling. This time, not only were there more cannons, but they were all magic crystal cannons. What should I do!

"In fact, there are ways to save money!" Rose is worthy of studying economics, and she is the best at doing business. "We can buy the technology directly! Don't let Dark God Palace know that we have a big ship that needs a lot of cannons, so that we can buy the design drawings of the magic crystal cannon at a relatively cheap price, and then we can build it ourselves. I think The magic crystal cannon is similar to the electronic products sold out now. The material cost is very low, but the technology is expensive!"

"Let’s talk about it first! The rest will be discussed later!"

" Purple Moon! Come out soon, we are in Gibraltar!" King Chuang suddenly shouted outside.

We ran out quickly, and after returning to the Biling, I took the telescope from the first officer and looked towards the sea ahead. I can clearly see a large shining battleship appearing in the strait ahead. It seems that this is the Imperial fleet! "First officer! Let the fleet stop and stand by, and the Biling will pass by alone!"

The fleet soon stopped, and our Biling passed by alone. The imperial fleet in the front lined up neatly with two long snake formations docked on the shore, stretching for tens of kilometers! As the distance approaches, I can already see the whole picture of Gibraltar. According to the sea icon, this place is called Gibraltar in the game. The name has not been changed, but the terrain seems to have changed. The coasts on both sides of the Mediterranean gradually converged here, and finally a strait with a width of only four or five kilometers was formed at the mouth of the sea. The coasts on both sides of the strait are not sandy beaches but vertical cliffs. These cliffs have a height of 20 to 30 meters, and the top is completely flat. This terrain is simply the best place to set up the fort. The vertical cliffs can protect the fort from being invaded by personnel, and the height of more than 20 meters creates a drop for the fort on the same level to increase the shooting range.

Now at this distance, I can see the silver light cannons flashing on the cliffs on both sides without using anything. It seems that many of them are magic crystal cannons! With such a terrifying terrain and the thought of fort, let alone our few ships, even if it doubles, it will definitely not be able to rush through!

But the reason I dare to go here is to bet how much the British think of us! With the news of the attack on Indonesia that I released in advance, the British should know our battle strength. In more than a day, they have almost understood the whole thing. They should know that if they attack us, we will definitely fail, but the imperial fleet will also change from the world's first fleet to a small fleet that can be bullied by most fleets at will! It's not a problem if our firepower can't beat some backing!

In the fleet ahead, a battleship not much smaller than the Biling was also opened, and the flag bearer wrote that the other party was an envoy ship! This advanced battleship slowly approached, and an authentic British Knight appeared on the bow. When the two boats leaned together, he stood on the side of the boat and extended the hand to me!

The two battleships are about the same height, and now they are close together, we can shake hands across the ship’s side by standing on our respective ships.

"Hello, I am Purple Moon from China! This is my fleet!"

"Hello, I am Baja, British. This is my empire Fleet, the guild belongs to the Empire Alliance!"

"Hello! Hello!"

We two boring start polite, and then Baha said let us pass and stop by Review his fleet! Although I was a little worried, I ordered the fleet to move forward. Anyway, I always have to pass, and I can’t help it if it's a trap! But I believe the British, It shouldn't be, want to fight either the fish dies or the net splits with me. Even if they beat us, they won't get any benefit! And we are now more sure than at first, that is, the British do not know that Noah is empty. When Baja and I were polite just now, he tried to confuse me many times. He was also very careful about this big guy who had never seen him before! I played Tai Chi with him anyway, I just didn't tell him what Noah was, but kept hinting that he was our secret weapon! I believe that the British will not dare to open fire if they don't understand the situation!

After my fleet began to move forward, Baja’s battleship left the Biling and went to the front as a guide ship for us. I will hurry up and make small moves! First of all, let Granda go into the water to see if the estuary of Gibraltar is deep enough! The Biling is nothing, but Noah's draft is almost 300 meters, so you can't be careful! In addition, hurry up and inform that everything will proceed as originally planned!

Dear readers from the public Attention, let me tell you something now, please help. The book has signed a physical version contract with the publisher, and the physical book will soon be published. But you don’t have to worry about the update progress of the public part. The release of the physical version will not affect your reading.

The purpose of the physical version is mainly for everyone's collection, so the printing will be more exquisite, it belongs to the hardcover version of that kind of collection. At present, the publisher wants to know the opinions and suggestions of readers on the physical version, and for this purpose, a QQ group has been built. The group number is: 24539404. I hope that everyone can join the group to help provide some opinions, which can be regarded as support for me.

In order to distinguish the physical version from the electronic version, the content of the physical version and the electronic version will be slightly different, the article will be more concise, and typos and some bugs will be corrected. The publisher has also hired a dedicated illustrator to draw illustrations for the physical version, and is currently intensively preparing. The physical version may also add my photo as an anti-counterfeiting mark and put it in the button page. In short, the physical version will be fully packaged and will be more complete than the electronic version. I hope everyone will pay more attention. (The main thing you want in that group is opinions on the design of the physical book, not the comments on the revision of the article, please help.)
