Starting from Zero

Following Chuang Wang to the port, a golden light gleaming battleship was slowly moving outward from the dock in the morning light. The huge hull is really a bit exaggerated, and the Eternity is obviously shorter next to it.

"This is the new ship?"

"Yes."

"I don't remember there was a plan for this ship?"

Chuang Wangdao: "This was decided a few days ago. I didn't tell you because I couldn't contact you. Ying and Hong Yue agreed."

I nodded and said: "It’s not who agrees. You are all guild leaders. You don’t need to ask me about this. I’m just wondering how to build such a big battleship? Do you have data parameters?"

"Yes." King Chuang touched his body for a long time, turned out a book of materials and handed it to me. "The total length is 737.9 meters, the width is 139.1 meters, the draft is 23.7 meters, the ship’s side discharge is 16.1 meters, and the full load displacement is 237,000 tons. It is equipped with 24 powerful underwater propellers in 6 groups. Most of the ship is constructed of black steel with gilding on the outside. The layer is used for magic resistance and rust prevention. The armor thickness of the ordinary hull is 739 mm, and the armor thickness of the important positions such as the ammunition depot, the turret, the engine room and the command tower is 819 mm. The main armament is 5 5-gun turrets, using three fronts and two rears. Layout. The turret uses a 520mm Shenwu cannon with a range of 130 kilometers. In addition to the main gun, it is equipped with a 1sect master magic light cannon and 270 miniature near magic light cannons. There are also nearly a thousand guns of various sizes on the ship. , The magic crystal cannon is also equipped with 32. All cabins are equipped with a 1 cm porous asbestos layer, with exquisite hardwood pressed to seal, and leather and sponge are covered for sound insulation. In addition, you bought it from seabed We have used all the technology, especially the crystal resonance system, which is better than radio. We have tested it, and it can be used normally within 2000 kilometers, and there is no noise at all. In the future, we can also maintain contact at sea. That’s right. , Because the current propulsion technology is perfect, and we have the observation mirror imported from Germany and the crystal communication technology you bought, so we removed the mast and only kept a flagpole, which looks more concise."

"Well, good. The performance is great, but why do you think of building such a big battleship?"

"In fact, this is not our idea, but the proposal of General Wu ."

"What the military general said?"

"Yes, that is what military general means. He said that in the past, the strength of marine martial power depends entirely on the battleship Size. The larger the battleship, the stronger the firepower, the more useful. Later, with the development of aircraft technology and missiles, large-scale battleships are gradually no longer suitable for modern battlefields. However, there is no missile in the actual sense of the game, like the suicide of the little Japan. Missiles actually have no practical value. As for airplanes, although flying beasts can be used instead, they lack sufficient destructive power. What's worse is that the formidable power of current anti-aircraft weapons is too effective for those flying beasts, so the effect of air strikes is not obvious. Under this premise, maritime hegemony still needs to be maintained by huge ships and super cannons. Therefore, we accepted the general’s suggestion and did our best to get a big guy."

"What is this big guy called? Did you name it?"

"Two names are prepared, one is called Tyrant and the other is called Hurricane. Can you choose one?"

"Isn’t there a Hurricane? Is it a ship?"

"The last time I was sunk by a small Japan, don’t you remember?"

"I have no impression! I think this is better called the Tyrant , The sunken Hurricane made another The same boat, so as not to mess around. "

"This is no problem. Both names are readily available anyway, so I can find someone to weld it to the hull. If there is no problem, I will call the fleet. "

I'm nodded. "You go, I'll go around here. "

After King Chuang left, the port gradually began to lively. On the one hand everyone began to go online, on the other hand, King Chuang gathered people. The siren of the battleship in the harbor rang. The battleship in the dock was also opened one after another. I saw a lot of new ships in the fleet. During this period, there were quite a few new battleships launched. Among them was an Eternal Level ship named Thor, which was sunk in place of it. The Victory.

Hundreds of battleships sailed out of the port one by one, and the sea outside Isingard was full of battleships. The naval NPCs in the alliance have also been pedaling ships, some people are still The anchored battleship is loaded with materials. Such a huge fleet is not raised by ordinary people. Every time we go out, the supply cost is scary. Fortunately, we have been fighting to support the battle, and we can barely afford it.

When I got on the bridge of the Tyrant, the surrounding battleships had basically left the inner harbor. The Tyrant was too big and was still busy making a U-turn. It was hard to get this big guy out of the harbor. The surrounding battleships were already waiting. It’s been a long time. It seems that the ship cannot be bigger in the future, otherwise it will be a problem to leave the port.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the grandiose fleet, headed by the Tyrant, left Isinger to inform the intelligence. Navigate to the superscripted location. Unexpectedly, Hong Yue happened to be online at the port, and the as it should be by rights set off with us. In addition, several Dragon Clan players such as Lin Yue and Sun Yan also followed, saying yes We need to see the naval strength of the descending meeting.

The information sent by Atlantis is in the Pacific Ocean. The probability of our large fleet passing through the Sea of ​​Japan without encountering a Japanese battleship is basically zero.

, But we are not afraid of encountering the Japanese battleship, anyway, we are now when the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, whoever meets is unlucky.

In order to cross the storm zone, we specially got a piece of Biling’s bones and placed it on the Tyrant. As a result, when crossing the isolation zone, it was really calm and tranquil. The sea surface was as calm as a lake. There was no strong typhoon weather like the last time. After leaving the storm zone, you should start to be careful. The range of activities of the Japanese fleet Expanding to the periphery of the storm zone, we may encounter the small Japanese fleet at any time from now on.

After a period of quiet sailing, the communication crystal suddenly rang. "The Conch is calling the Tyrant, please Reply. "The Conch is a fast detection boat with a length of only twelve meters. It is equipped with a super large observatory and several propellers. It is specifically responsible for the lead reconnaissance of the fleet. Anyway, this kind of boat is fast, and it turns around when there is a problem. Run, no one wants to catch up.

The player in charge of the communication crystal presses the crystal and starts to respond: "This is the Tyrant. What's the situation? "

"A strange mist zone was found ahead. "

"What's so strange about the fog?" "

"We are now in the upper hand, but the fog is coming towards us. I don't think normal fog can go against the wind. "

"How big is the fog area?" "

"I don't know. The observation range is full of fog, and a thick layer on the entire sea surface, about 200 meters high, is pressing over like a wall. "

"Don't go in yet, you guys will come back soon. "I took Crystal's order.

"Understood, evacuate immediately. The communication ends. "

We sailed for a few more minutes, and the reconnaissance boat rushed back from up ahead fast as lightning. Even if it circled in front of the enemy at this speed, no one could hit it. That boat. The speedboat entered the hull from the large entrance behind the Tyrant and berthed in the ship. After a while, the observer on the ship reached our bridge.

"President. "

"Where is the fog you see?" "

The MM walked to the top of the chart and said: "Here. "

A large group of us gathered around to look at the chart. In fact, only Hong Yue, Hong Yue and Chuang Wang can understand it. Those Dragon Clan players are purely joining in the fun. Hong Yue said: "The distance to us It’s not far here! "

I shouted into the observation room overhead: "Did you see anything?" "

A voice from above said: "It seems to be a little shadow, probably the thick fog. "

The King of Chuang looked at me and asked, "Are we going to get around?" "

I haven't spoken yet, Hong Yue first said: "We don't know how big this fog is, it may be too late to get around!" "

I finally said: "Send orders to the ships, gather the formations, and try to get as close as possible. All the small ships can only recover are recovered. In addition, reduce the ship's speed to three-quarters of the standard speed. "

_____________________________

The huge fleet gradually began to move closer together, and the boats were gradually put away. When we finished preparations, the fog could already be seen with naked eye. It was really like the report of the observation ship, like a wall, it was big and scary. The continuous fog was thick and thick, and there was nothing in it at all. This feeling was not good at all.

Wang looked at the foggy wall and said, "This is definitely not a weather phenomenon. "

"Nonsense. There will be no fog that can move forward against the wind, not to mention the fog that Biling can't dispel, how can it be a pure weather phenomenon? "I raised my head and called up again: "How far are we from the fog?" "

"Three kilometers. "

"Send the ships to slow down again by 1/4/2021. "

"Yes, the ships decelerate by 1/4/2021. "

Seeing the fog pressing down like a wall, many players ran to the window to watch the situation outside. The fog quickly swallowed the battleship ships like a rare beast. The strange atmosphere makes people breathless.

"The ships report the situation. "

"Everything is normal on the Eternal. "

"The flashing number is all normal. "

"Everything is normal on the Thor. "

"The Phoenix Shark is all normal. "

"..."

It seems that there is nothing wrong with the fog itself. The battleships have entered the fog normally. As long as the course is maintained, there should be no problem. This fog Impossible Covers the entire Pacific Ocean, we can always go out.

I'm thinking about good things, and the bad news is here. "President, something has happened, come and take a look. "

The one who called me was the navigator. All of us gathered in the past and found that the compass, the sea direction indicator, was spinning crazily. King Chuang first shouted: "Damn! What's going on? "

The player next to it said: "Don't panic, the player map has a compass function. "

As a result, another player called out: "No! The compass on my personal map is jumping around! "

"This is a big problem! "Hong Yue looked at the misty mist all around and said, "We are lost!" The observation hand above? Can you see anything? "

"It's all fog, the line of sight is completely obscured, and you can't see anything! "

"Can't you turn around now?" "A Dragon Clan player asked.

Chuang Wang explained: "Without a compass, we can't determine the steering angle. If we don't turn around, we might be able to get out. You're really lost if you turn around!" "

Um...! The Eternal on our left suddenly sounded the whistle, and the melodious and loud whistle immediately attracted everyone's attention. All of us turned our eyes there. , I want to see what Eternal is doing. However, we can only see an outline of Eternal, which is vaguely unclear.

"What is that? "A player suddenly pointed to the front left of the battleship. Everyone looked along, only a faint outline could be seen, as if something was leaning up.

"Fuck, it's a ship! "The king of Chuang jumped to the helmsman's position with a stride and squeezed the helmsman aside. "The rudder on the right is full, and the propeller is at full speed. Whistle. The battleship behind the transmission ordered an emergency stop. "

Almost as soon as the king shouted, there was a huge impact on our left side. The Eternal shook fiercely, and the one in front of the shadow that had been hit suddenly flew out sideways. Obviously Not Eternal’s opponent. But Eternal was suddenly stopped, but the battleship behind could not stop. With another bang, a battleship hit the side and rear of Eternal. The Eternal was hit and suddenly moved forward. It’s another look at the ship in front.

The ship that appeared suddenly could no longer withstand the second impact, and was interrupted in two by a loud metal distortion. The Eternal is fighting. The sharp corners of the design cut this poor ship into two sections. We haven’t had time to care about the Eternity. The siren sounded on the left front. The ship that popped up just now was not alone. The ship, it’s part of a fleet. Hearing the whistle and the impact here, the other party also sounded the whistle. Unfortunately, it seems to be a little late. The dark shadow has appeared in front of us. At this speed, we will definitely take that guy. It's all in half.

Chuang Wang fiercely pressed the steering wheel and slammed to the left. "The whole machine reversed in an emergency, pushed the engine sideways, and the rudder left full. "

The Tyrant suddenly changed from full rudder right to full left rudder, twisting a huge wave on the sea, and the other side wisely accelerated forward and hoped to cooperate with us to avoid the impact. There was a loud noise. The Tyrant shook slightly. In the unpleasant sound of metal friction, Tyrant wiped the stern of the other side and let it go, but the worst thing was that the other side had more than one ship. We dodged the first one but failed to avoid the one behind. There was a bang. , An unknown ship was hit by us and flew. The huge force forcibly slammed the bow of the ship into the hull. The Tyrant also shook violently, but it didn't seem to have much reaction. After all, we are too big.

In the next few minutes, there will be the sound of one after another crash and the sound of a sirens. It sounds like at least a few hundred ships have collided together. Crystal Communications There is no way to give instructions at all, the communication channel is chaotic, and I can't hear who is talking.

I yelled to the communication crystal: "Everyone is quiet. "The frequency of communication quieted down. I continued: "Each ship reports the situation according to the ranking. "

"The middle part of the port side of the Eternal was sunken, and three people were injured by a fall. There was no other loss. The report is complete. "

"The bow of Flasher was deformed and the rudder was damaged. One crew member fell and suffered no other injuries. The report is complete. "

"The loading crane on the left rear side of the Thor deformed. One crew member was seriously injured and one was caught in the water. The report is complete. "

"..."

After reporting all the reports, King Chuang also reported: "Three people on this ship were injured, and one person was injured by a falling wrench on his head. The hull is not damaged. "

I sighed. "Fortunately, our battleship is hard enough!" "I glanced at the battleship crowded outside and said: "Who did we bump into?" "

Hong Yue points to the logo on a metal fragment hanging on the railing outside the bridge. "I think it's the Korean fleet!" That seems to be their mark. "

"The Korean fleet? What are they doing to the South Pacific? King Chuang stayed in command, Hong Yue followed me to take a look outside. "

I took Hong Yue and a large group of Dragon Clan players down to the deck. There is a ship with half of the bow rushing onto our deck. Many people are running around on it. Go, it looks panic. They don't have a communication system, and it is inconvenient to contact when an accident occurs. They don't have a unified command, so they are in a mess. I walked over and asked Mirage to do the translation for me. "Are you Korean players? "

The other party saw us very nervously, with a guarded look. "Who are you?" "

"We are the Chinese fleet. "

"Huh! "The guy exhaled. "It scared me to death. I thought it was Japanese!" "

"Which guild do I say you belong to?" "

"The Celestial Alliance. "

"What? Are you from the guild of Park Eun? "This world is so small, you can meet here!

___________________________________________________

"Do you know our president? She is also in the fleet, just don't know where she is now. The fleet is in chaos! "

"It doesn't matter, I can find her. "

Run back to the bridge and use the communication crystal to ask the ships to find nearby battleships. Whoever finds Park Eun will report. Soon there will be a return and found it. It turns out that Park Eun is behind us with one of us. The destroyers collided together. I asked about the approximate location, spread my wings and flew over. This is a real look, the battleship below is all squeezed together to form a small steel island, the scene is in chaos. The Korean fleet is from us Suddenly plugged in on the left, the first hit was the Eternal, and then the two sides all squeezed into each other to bump into each other. Although I have ordered an emergency stop, the battleship does not mean stop and stop. It weighs 10,000 tons. The inertia of the battleship is so powerful that it easily cut the thin iron armored battleship of the Koreans into pieces. At that time, the Korean battleship was relatively forward, and our battleship basically hit the other side's side by the bow of the ship, so the damage was not large.

Finally found the ship that reported. The entire bow of this destroyer was inserted into the front of the Korean battleship. It seemed that the collision was not light. I fell down at the point of impact, as expected. I found Park Eun. The little girl's head was wrapped with a bandage, and it seemed that the injury was serious.

"Park Eun? "

"Purple Moon? It is you! "Park Yin looked at me in surprise. "Don't tell me this is your fleet. "

"Unfortunately this is the case! "

"Gosh! "Park Yin sat down on the ground. "Half of my fleet has been reimbursed by you. How can you compensate me?" "

"Isn't it? Do you rely on me too? How can I see things in such a heavy fog, you suddenly appeared on our route, what should I do? If it hadn’t been for me to slow down a long time ago, you would have all been knocked apart! "

"Now it's almost gone! "

I looked at the impact incision and said: "Fortunately, it is not irretrievable. Use pontoons to prop up the boat, and as long as it can be returned to the port, it can still be repaired. "

"How do you calculate the repair cost?" "

"Didn't I tell you? This is an accident, and I didn't hit you on purpose. Besides, your battleship also hit me! All of your battleships in front have climbed onto the front deck of my flagship. Who am I looking for? "

"5555~My fleet! Originally, I was going to have a long and short time with Xiao Japan, and this Xiao Japan will make you reimbursement! "

"I'm here to fight devils too, or do you think I'm boring to take more than two hundred battleships to the Pacific Ocean for sightseeing?" "

The underworld-like middle age person behind Park Eun came up and said, "Miss, the top priority now is to fix the battleship first, and then separate the battleships from both sides." It's dangerous to be connected like this! "

"Yes, this must be dealt with first. "

I immediately said enthusiastically: "I can support you if the anti-sinking floats are not enough. "

"Of course you have to support it, you are the one who caused it! "Park Yin glanced at his flagship, "Take me to your flagship, right?" It's too messy here, I'm afraid it will be inseparable for a while! "

"Well then! "

Park Eun confessed the matter to the middle age person, and then followed me back to the Tyrant. After seeing my new ship, she couldn’t help but make a fuss about nothing again, but soon Recovery. "Sister Hong Yue is there too? "

"Isn't this Park Eun? Isn't this your fleet? "

"It's my fleet, but now you have turned into wounded soldiers!" "

"That's unfortunate! "

I interrupted their conversation and said, "Pu Yin, how did you get here?" "

"Don't mention it! We got into this fog with unfathomable mystery at noon yesterday and kept walking around in circles. I don't know if the area is too big or what's going on. We just can't get out anyway. Everything that can indicate the direction is jumping around. The fog even covers the sun and the stars. It is impossible to see the stars in the direction! what about you? "

"We just came in for more than ten minutes, but you suddenly appeared and had a close contact with us! "

"Can you blame me for this?" You don't turn on the lights or sound the horns, how do I know there is something! "

"Aren't you running around in the dark?" "

"We have been in for a long time. It is normal to relax our vigilance. You relax after only ten minutes. This should not be the case. "

"Forget it, it won't make a noise like this, let's talk about what to do? "

Park Eundo: "We have tried everything we can think of, and none of them will work! "

"Have you called someone to help?" "

"It's called, but it's useless! Yesterday we encountered the fog in the Tsushima Strait, but you said that this is the South Pacific. It can be seen that this foggy area can take us to move. It is not clear where we move, so we are told where to find us. ? "

"Have you considered leaving alone?" "

"Experimented, useless! Seven of the separated battleships were missing, and the others rammed together again! The people on the missing ship were all unfathomable mystery's death back to the city and resurrected. Asking them is also asking three questions. "

"I won't explain all of my battleships here, right? "

"If there is no way to leave, you can only commit suicide and go back! Of course the ship is one and can't be taken away! "

"That won't work! My battleship is very expensive, it can be rebuilt! Besides, there is no time left, I am going to complete a task soon! "

A Dragon Clan player suddenly said: "Should we try to anchor?" "

"Huh? "

"Yes, drop the anchor. Anyway, the fog is moving, we don't move, it moves by itself and we come out. "

Crush the kingly way: "It's useless. This is the deep sea area of ​​the South Pacific, our anchor chain cannot reach the seabed. "

"Wait, I have a solution. "I plan on them. "You don't need to anchor, I just go down. "

"Huh? You go down? "

"My demon Aanna is a mermaid. Although she has no sense of direction on the water, she knows the terrain of the seabed, and she can find the direction along the seabed. "

"Then how do you take us away?" "

I said: "I took a rope down, tied a float at one end, and tied my waist at the other end. I move underwater, you just need to follow the float. If you leave the fogging area, I'll know by pulling the rope a few times. "

"This is a good way. They all agreed with King Chuang.

A report came from the observation room above: "Guild Master, a dark shadow was found in front of him. It is suspected to be a battleship!" "

"Hurry up and whistle! "

The ship got messed up, and I rushed to the loudspeaker and shouted through the external broadcast: "Don't come here, here is another fleet!" "

The sirens on both sides sounded almost at the same time, but everyone knows that they can’t escape. Our battleships are crowded into a ball and no one can move them. The battleships over there are very fast, not at all. Ways to dodge. As the shadows became clearer and clearer, we all saw clearly that it was some battleship, obviously another fleet.

Inevitably, there was a bang again, and the Tyrant was fierce. There was a tremor, and there was a metal twisting sound outside, and the scene became more and more chaotic. A large battleship hit the sinking Korean battleship and suddenly jumped up. A guy rushed to the front deck of the Tyrant and ran across it. The battleships collided one after another, and none of them were spared. The South Korean fleet was unlucky in this collision. Our battleship was not directly hit by the collision but was shaken by the transmission, and the damage was almost zero.

Park Eun couldn't help but started swearing, and he grabbed my intercom and shouted to the outside world: "Who the fuck is it? Doesn't have eyes? "

I grabbed the intercom and replaced it with the internal channel: "Let's see who's the fleet?" "

After a while, there was a response: "President. The opponent claimed to be the offshore fleet of the Lakers’ Guild of the United States. "

"Tell them where we are and let their president meet us. "

" Got it. "

A few minutes later, we saw the other party’s president on the deck. He was also surprised when he saw us. Park Eun doesn’t speak English, so I had to translate it. Anyway, Phantom can speak any language.< /p>

"Are you Chinese? "The other person asked.

I replied: "I am Chinese and she is Korean. Our fleet just ran into each other ten minutes ago, and we were discussing the aftermath and you ran into it again! "

The other party smiled awkwardly: "We can't see, we have already started to slow down when we hear your whistle, but the distance is too close, we can't get out of it at all!" "

"Don't discuss the reason, anyway, they have collided together. The problem now is to separate as soon as possible. The ghost knows if a certain fleet is approaching us. "

Crush the kingly road: "I have ordered the outer battleship to sound the whistle once at a short interval. Judging by the volume of the whistle, no one will bump into it again. It is definitely time to slow down after hearing the sound, unless the opponent is moving forward at full speed. "

"So...I'm sorry, what's your name?" "Suddenly I found out that I haven't asked the other party's name.

"John. "He extends the hand.

"My name is Purple Moon, this is King Chuang, this is Hong Yue, and her name is Park Yin. "

"Hello. "

"I think the battleship should be opened soon, those who are not stuck should leave first, so as to save the boats that are stuck with each other. "

The King Chuang pointed to the ship on our deck: "What about this?" "

I said to the Dragon Clan player behind: "Thank you, we can't move these big guys." "

Sun Yan came up and said: "Leave it to us." Can't sail, strength is still there. Come, everyone move this thing away. "
