Pirate System

"Because it is beyond the range of 1,000 yards from the sea, most of the functions of the game system will fail, but the character skills are still available. When it is close to 1,000 yards of the sea, the game system will naturally recover."

After reading the prompt, Tangke's expression returned to normal. He hired a carriage, paid the fare generously, and asked the coachman to drag him to the seaside. Sitting in the bumpy carriage, he kept observing the game system in his mind. When he got close to the sea, the system was activated again.

After this verification, it is proved that this game system can only be used at sea, and it will fail when it reaches the shore.

He returned to the Black Pearl and took the sailors to an inn, but only the troublemaker remained in the cell. However, Tang Ke left plenty of food for the troublemaker, and did not intend to starve it to death.

The seaside is full of various business opportunities. There is a group of people who are specially responsible for soliciting customers. As soon as they see the sailors disembarking, they will surround them and drag them to their own hotels.

Tangke opened more than a dozen double rooms and arranged for the sailors to live here. After eating and drinking, he called the people together.

"During the stay in Port Carlin, you can indulge as much as you like, but you must ensure that two people are on standby at the hotel every day, because this time I have to plan to go to sea again, and I need someone to help me run errands." Sailors said.

The sailors agreed, and Tangke also distributed some gold coins to them, enough for them to spend a month.

"Captain, do you know where there are prostitutes in this place?" said a sailor with a wink.

"Inquire for yourself." Tangke scolded with a smile.

Most of the pirates live a life of drunkenness. When they have no money, they go to sea on a pirate ship. When they have money, they go to the shore to enjoy themselves.

The sailors were free, but Tonk had several priorities, the first of which was to repair the ship and buy enough artillery.

There are three shipyards built right on the shore, of different sizes, but a medium-sized ship like the Black Pearl can be repaired no matter where it goes. Tangke chose a nearby shipyard, and after swaggering in, someone immediately greeted him with a smile.

Tangke talked about the situation of the Black Pearl and its docking location. After these ships docked, they would be numbered by the port authority, and all ships were in order. In order to better express his intentions, he pulled the businessman in front of the Black Pearl, and said his thoughts while gesturing.

"All the damaged areas have to be repaired and cleaned, and now the boat smells like mold. Besides, I'm going to make a good change to the boat, and give me a black base color for the hull, Paint some patterns on it in red, and I want something simple, but pretty." He did this to make the boat look like it was Black Toad's.

"Add gun doors to me on the hull, ten on each side, and give me a carving of a faucet on the bow. Remember, you need to be fierce! You don't need to install the cannon first, I have to choose which gun to install. You can give the spare sail I have to prepare more, whether it is a square sail or a jib, I have to choose different sails according to the situation. I also have to change my flag, do you have painters here?"

The businessman recorded Tangke's words in a notebook, raised his head and raised his glasses, and said, "Of course, the flags made by our shipyard will never fade. This is famous in the Greenland Empire, and the painters are also famous. A painting is worth dozens of gold coins. But since you are here to repair ships and buy guns, I will give you this flag for nothing."

Tang Ke did not listen to this statement,

Besides, he didn't understand art either, as long as the pirate flags made were in line with his aesthetics.

His aesthetic is very simple and fierce!

Under the leadership of the businessman, he found the painter, who was an old man with a hexagonal hat.

The flag of the Evil Dragon Pirates, which is naturally an Evil Dragon. There is a dragon tattoo on Tangke's right shoulder. He likes this tattoo, so he simply took off his clothes, let the artist draw according to the tattoo on his right shoulder, and then made it into a flag.

As soon as he showed his tattoo, the two of them couldn't help but look at each other and gave a wry smile.

Tattoos are a major symbol of pirates. If a person wants to drive a ship into a pirate city, he must reveal his tattoos. The pirate flag is a symbol of a ship, and a tattoo is a symbol of a pirate.

Many years later, the iconic dragon tattoo has become famous, and when the big dragon pirate flag is unveiled, even the navies of the five empires have to fire their cannons, and then take a detour to pay their respects.

The shipyard opened the door to do business, no matter if you were a merchant ship, a military ship or a pirate ship, as long as you paid, these people did not ask whether Tangke was a pirate or not. Given enough money, they can even build a first-class battleship with 100 guns.

After Tangk finished dealing with the flag, it was still early in the sky, and he went straight to the fort built by the shipyard facing the sea. The waves beat against the metal frame. It shone with the cold light unique to metal.

These guns are front-bore guns, a solid shell is plugged in, and the gunpowder is filled to blow it out. The basic theory is this, but the types of guns have developed into diversification according to demand.

First of all, the weight varies. Small artillery weighs about one ton, and large artillery even has four or five tons. The displacement of the Black Pearl is 150 tons. When installing the artillery, you have to refer to this value. The weight of the installed artillery, plus the recoil when the gun is fired, must be calculated.

Second, the range, rate of fire, and reload time are all different. With a long range, long-range tactics can be used to weaken the enemy ship with a little detour, but the long-distance plus the turbulence of the sea makes the artillery's hit rate pitifully low. Those with a fast rate of fire can choose melee combat. The two ships slammed after a distance of more than 100 meters. With a horizontal shooting angle at this distance, the artillery can still hit with low accuracy.

Tang Ke chatted with the artillery merchant for a long time, and probably figured out the advantages of these cannons. At the suggestion of the merchant, he chose a medium-sized cannon with a high rate of fire. The cannon is 2.7 meters long and weighs two tons.

He had an idea and performed the investigation technique on the selected artillery, which was actually effective, and the basic information of the artillery was reflected in his mind.

Name: Medium Cannon

Durability: 90 (every time the gun is fired, the gun is attrition, and when the durability is 0, the gun will be scrapped)

Types of ammunition: solid bullets, chain bullets, shotguns.

Destructive power: ★★☆

Bullet speed: ★☆

Range: 200 yards.

Filling speed: 2 minutes.

Equipment location: the side of the boat.

Due to the short range and fast reloading speed, with this type of artillery, the Black Pearl can only choose close combat. Tonke requested that the mounts be built to be detachable, so that they could be used in place of the artillery in the future when the spit frogs were recruited.

With a range of 350 yards and a rate of fire of more than ten seconds, the spit frog is far better than this type of artillery.

This time, the Black Pearl will have a new look, but the cost is also huge. All Tangke's gold coins have been put on it, and now there are only more than 20 gold coins left in his free money.

When Tangke left the shipyard, the sky was already full of stars, and the streets in the night lighted up one after another. There were fewer pedestrians on the streets, and those who were eager to go home were in a hurry, but some drunks were still okay. Not slow.

His stomach was empty for a long time, but he didn't plan to go back to the hotel. Those sailors didn't have to worry at all. Maybe they were all holding the woman Hu Tianhu in their arms. As he walked, he was looking for where to settle the dinner.

The dinner party was not found, but he first saw a notice board with various bounties posted on it, and there was an image of the head of the Black Toad Pirates.

Name: Harold Hayson.

Reward amount: 45000 gold coins.

"Ding! Activate the bounty system, and you can view the bounty rankings of pirates."

Although many functions of the system have failed, some recruitment and exchange functions have been disabled, and the interface can still be viewed. He clicked on the main interface and saw that there was an extra [Reward] system, which was filled with the pirate information he had seen on the bulletin board.

His game system is of the absorption type. When you encounter a port, you can get port information, and when you see artillery, you can get artillery information. In addition, all the artillery pieces he saw in the shipyard appeared in the [Exchange] system, which could be exchanged for reward points.

Red Rose Tavern.

Donk chose to fill his stomach here.
