If one had never been to the shipyard and dock of the City of Dawn.
It would be hard to imagine how tall and big the super shipyard, which occupied an area of more than 10 football fields, was. It was even more unbelievable. Why would the City of Dawn build such a huge shipyard?
There were 2000 soldiers stationed here. They did not belong to any legion. Their duty was to protect the shipyard. Of course, these 2000 soldiers also had to take care of the dock three kilometers away. If anything happened, the Taurens and the garrison at Rainbow Lake could immediately come to help.
There were no golden beaches in the south of the City of Dawn. There were only hard reefs that were much higher than the sea level.
Due to the geographical location, the sea was usually calm. Storms were rare.
However, it was subtropical and at the edge of the coastline. Rain was inevitable.
After William passed through the city gate and entered the wall, the sky above his head had already darkened.
He saw that the rain was about to fall. He patted Big Bear's butt and let it follow the guards to shelter from the rain. Then, he walked into the largest shipyard in the shipyard.
Once he walked in, William could not help but raise his head to look at his super warship, the Dawn Vessel.
That was right.
The three-masted battleship in front of him had three decks. It was black and glowed with silver light. It was his super warship.
It was 121 meters long and 32 meters wide. It could carry a legion for short trips and could accommodate 1200 people for long trips.
The deck and hull were mostly made of gold-quality black iron wood mixed with mithril. The entire hull was almost entirely black and glowed with silver light.
Other than sailing without sails, the second power source was 99 magical crystals. The estimated speed was between 180 to 260 nautical miles per hour.
There were 108 cannons on both sides of the hull.
After all, this world had gunpowder and the profession of cannon gunner …
Magic cannons were too high-end. Other than the powerful human empires and a few Elven kingdoms, no one else had them.
But because the Gnomes and Dwarves had developed cannons, they supplemented the offensive and defensive capabilities of the grand duchies and kingdoms. They were considered strategic weapons in the middle stages of the game.
The saltpeter mine was also listed as a national resource. Basically, there was no possibility of it being circulated.
"Fortunately, it is only version 1.0. Fortunately, it is only a beginner's village. If the Iron Nation and the Black Lava Nation had cannons, the City of Dawn would have no chance to develop." William sighed.
The City of Dawn was not defenseless against cannons.
But that required a stronger city wall. How could William have the mages to enchant the entire city wall?
Was he going to befriend Moses?
How could that be? This big shot definitely wouldn't do anything, and he didn't want to sell his body either …
Fortunately, the area south of the City of Dawn was a super ore vein on the legendary continent. The saltpeter ore vein was not a problem. It was a pity that the Dwarves that Odom had brought along did not have the inheritance of manufacturing cannons and gunpowder. Even if they had, they had long been lost.
Therefore, these 108 muzzles could only be used as arrow holes.
But he had no choice. Until now, William had not found a Cannon Gunner. After all, it was a hidden occupation. It was rare, but it was really powerful.
At this moment.
It was a middle-aged Elf wearing a silver-gray magic robe. William raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Andrew, it looks like the Dawn Vessel is about to be completed?"
"Greetings, Lord." Andrew was the royal shipbuilder of the Moonlight Elves. He was a grandmaster who could build epic battleships.
Strategic items like battleships were different from equipment. They were not divided into levels. Epic battleships were epic battleships. Even in the human empires, they were treasures.
Otherwise, William would not have spent so much money. All the resources added together would be hundreds of thousands of gold coins. He could even build half a set of middle-level legendary equipment …
It could even be said that it was not easy for the human empires to build such battleships.
This was because shipbuilders and materials were a problem. Most importantly, the human countries in the Legendary continent did not invest much in the maritime industry.
Andrew was a Level-56 Wood Magician. His secondary profession was far more important than his main profession, and his main profession was mostly used to support his secondary profession. Otherwise, Andrew, who was already over a hundred years old, wouldn't be so low in level.
"My Lord, it's not as simple as you say!" Andrew sighed. "You asked us to build the hull frame with all our might. We used whatever was best.
"Therefore, we chose the most suitable black iron tree in the Blackleaf Forest …
"After we bought the precious black iron tree, we continuously enchanted it with magic, processed it, and exploded it. Finally, we fused so much mithril, enchanted it again, and assembled it …
"But the frame of this ship is too strong. It has far exceeded my control. Now, ordinary dragon bones cannot withstand it."
"Dragon bones?" William smiled mysteriously. It seemed that Andrew and the rest did not know that he had killed a dragon.
Therefore, he asked the shipyard workers to step aside. Andrew and the other shipbuilders retreated to the sides.
Then, he waved his hand …
The ten-meter-long corpse of a Fire Dragon filled everyone's eyes!
"Dragon!!!"
"Oh my god, Giant Dragon. Is this a Giant Dragon?"
"Where did the dragon come from? Is it dead?"
Andrew ignored the shouts of the others. He walked to the side of the Fire Dragon's corpse in disbelief. He touched the broken dragon scales, fiddled with the Fire Dragon's eyelids, and even its mouth and teeth …
Then,
Andrew swallowed his saliva. His two pointy ears were a little soft. He was dumbfounded. "My Lord, you killed a dragon?"
"Fortunately, I accidentally killed the Fire Dragon in the Snow Mountain of the East Sea." William shrugged nonchalantly.
Once he said this.
The entire shipyard was in a mess.
All the shipbuilders knelt on one knee and congratulated their Lord for becoming a Dragon Slayer with admiration in their eyes!
Andrew was in a daze for a while. He wanted to kneel on one knee, but William helped him up. "Captain, it's 121 meters long. This Fire Dragon is still too small. Do you have a way to fuse all the dragon bones together and add some rare materials to make it the warship's keel?"
"Yes, definitely, but I need more mythril." Andrew's eyes were red. He wanted to swallow the Fire Dragon in one breath.
His eyes were dazed, as if he was thinking about something. But he continued to say, "If my Lord does not want this pair of wings, I can still make it the sails of the ship. Do you want the dragon scales, the dragon blood, the dragon crystal …"
"Ahem, other than the keel, I want everything …" William hurriedly stopped him from daydreaming.
Andrew came back to his senses and understood. William must have kept the dragon blood and the dragon crystal. He was indeed a little too greedy.
William expressed his respect for Andrew's research spirit. The Dawn Vessel was very important, but the other things of this dragon were also very important. He could only shrug his shoulders. "I can only give you the keel. What you need to do is to take out all the keel. But the dragon wings are too thick. How are you going to make the sails? "
"It's too thick. There's also a thick layer of scales. It must be very heavy. But my Lord, have you ever thought that the dragon wings are still the wings of a Giant Dragon? They are magic materials.
"When a Giant Dragon flaps its wings, it doesn't just rely on the power of the dragon wings.
"Instead, the dragon wings themselves make use of the wind, allowing the Giant Dragon to fly easily. So when the dragon wings come into contact with the wind elements, they will become extremely light.
So, as long as I stretch the dragon wings from thin to long, and then enchant them and so on, I can turn them into super-high quality sails. Their defensive power will also be extremely strong, far from what other sails can compare to. " Andrew looked at the Giant Dragon's corpse and couldn't help but touch it. It was just like a child who had found a new toy. He couldn't let go of it.
William suddenly smiled. "Then what are you waiting for? The bones and wings of this dragon are all yours. Just leave the rest to me."
"Really?"
"Andrew, I believe in you." William patted his shoulder very solemnly.
For a moment.
Andrew's eyes flashed. It was as if he had seen a new life. It was as if he had discovered his mission.
So he threw the magic robe to the side, held his dagger, and shouted, "Let's get to work. Everyone, help me. I will personally dismember this Fire Dragon's corpse. Whoever dares to steal a piece of the Fire Dragon's flesh, I promise to sink him to the bottom of the sea!"
