Ocean Lords: Start as a Fisherman

Chapter 95 Mutual Helper Warship

At the registration lighthouse, the registration of arriving residents is still ongoing.

Su Wang also checked each registered resident under the age of 50 one by one.

During the testing process, Su Wang observed that every time a resident was tested, a small portion of the purified source water in the cup would evaporate.

With Tia's guidance, he gradually understood the feedback between the boiling state of the source water and the degree of blood purification.

After a while,

All 1 residents have been registered, and Su Wang has also conducted a preliminary screening of the personnel.

Except for the first tester, the others did not provide the captain with the baptismal potion immediately.

After all, there are only 16 bottles of baptismal potions left, which is far from enough to meet the current number of residents.

Among them, some residents have family relationships.

Su Wang decided to temporarily accept only one of these residents as a candidate for ship captain.

Among these 1 residents, a total of 330 people with blood purity of more than 15% were selected.

In addition, 16 candidates with a purity of more than 20% were selected and immediately given the captain's baptism potion.

Even so, there were still four people who were unlucky and failed to successfully awaken the captain's soul.

Fortunately, the Captain's Baptismal Potion does not have to be taken only once.

For residents who failed to awaken and those who have not taken the Captain's Baptism Potion,
Su Wangze promised that he would consider them first when baptism potions became available.

After some operation,
These residents originally looked at the new dock lord with unfamiliarity and fear in their eyes, but now it has turned into respect.

Even the look in Tia's eyes when she looked at Su Wang was filled with strong curiosity.

17 times of awakening the captain failed only 4 times,
Even if the captain awakens among those with 30% blood purity, the awakening ratio is still very high.

Not to mention that none of the baptism targets can meet the basic baptism conditions.

She couldn't help but wonder who this "captain" of hers was and why he could cause such an abnormal situation.

...

Resident registration is completed.

Su Wang led these new residents of the dock to the houses that had been built long ago.

Use the Dock Lord's ability to modify the residential layout, changing each floor to have 8 rooms.

Residents with families are accommodated in a single room, while those without families are accommodated in a room of five.

At the same time, these residents were informed that the houses were only given to them temporarily for residence.

If you really want to own these houses, you have to work and earn 5 fish coins to purchase long-term use rights.

Similarly, Su Wang also promised these residents that he would gradually provide them with certain jobs and a living allowance of 10 fish coins per month.

For example, a captain has a guaranteed salary of 500 fish coins per month, and he or she will also receive additional merit rewards when going out to fight.

The farmer who is responsible for transporting the products of the [Vegetable Field] is paid 50 fish coins per month.

At the same time, 5 households were selected to be granted the right to sell crops, and they could purchase crops at low prices and sell them.

Although there are still few residents at the dock, now that there are people there, a good living system must be established.

These customized rules,
Su Wang formulated the plan based on what he saw and heard at various docks and the advice given by Tia.

Fortunately, these residents also brought a lot of property and luggage when they were sent here.

It already has some assets left, and a small amount of another type of fish crystal currency that is lower than fish coins is still available, so there is no problem in keeping the early system running.

Su Wang also made up his mind to take the time to go to other local docks to exchange some fish crystal currency and place large orders for some daily necessities.

He then called Cao Ge over, handed him the crop seeds, and asked him to lead 10 residents who were willing to be farmers to plant crops.

As for the other residents, Su Wang asked 13 captains and 10 residents with the lowest blood purity to wait at the port on the south side of the pier.

All that remains is to wait until the terminal gradually gets on track, when more work demands will naturally arise.

...

Su Wang was on his way to the shipyard, planning to use the resources at hand to build some ships.

When we arrived at the shipyard,
他先批量制造了10艘[捕鱼船]，累积消耗了3项基础资源各5万，4项普通鱼材同样5万。

These ships were to be given to the 10 residents with the lowest blood purity to pilot.

Used for daily fishing in pure sea areas, it can provide fish food and accelerate the accumulation of the [Fish Breeding Lake]'s foundation.

After a while, basketball-sized multi-faceted ship cores came into view.

After checking the item information, we know that just throwing these complete cores into open water will expand and evolve into a fishing boat.

"This is quite magical." Su Wang couldn't help but mutter.

Collect the cores of 10 fishing boats,
Su Wang then took out a permanent scroll from the fish hold and used it.

After a while, a silver-based production table suddenly appeared in the factory.

[Mutual Helper Medium Warship (Silver Grade) Production Station.]

Function: To make a medium-sized special warship with a length of 60 meters and a width of 30 meters.

This warship has special abilities, detailed information can be viewed after construction.

Production costs: wood, steel, blue fish coins*5, silver fish skin, fish scales*3, fish glue, fish tendons*5.

...

Su Wang checked the current inventory of silver fish in the fish hold.

After last night's red tide, the silver-grade fish materials already have 198.7 million pieces of fish skin, 19.6 pieces of fish maw, 15.3 pieces of fish tendons, and 282.2 million pieces of fish scales.

"Building 13 is enough!"

When it really came to be needed, Su Wang still couldn't help but sigh at the profound heritage of the local port.

After all, just building thirteen warships cost him 39 each of fish skin and fish scales, and 6.5 each of fish glue and fish tendons. One could imagine how much material resources those local dock lords would have to spend to build a fleet of thousands of ships.

As soon as the first special warship core was manufactured, Su Wang checked it immediately.

[Mutual Helper Medium Warship Core (Silver Grade).]

Function: Placed in open waters, it will expand and transform into a silver-class medium-sized warship.

Warship attributes——

Strength: 50 (affects facility power).

Durability: 5000/5000.

Speed: 20 knots.

Available facilities: 10 fish souls, 2 types of fish treasures, 6 attack facilities, and an unlimited number of external facilities.

Warship's special ability - Mutual Helper: When there is another Mutual Helper warship within 200 meters, a hidden mutual help effect can be generated, increasing the warship's strength by +1, durability by +50 points, and speed by +0.1 knots.

Each warship has a scalable cooperation range, which can be extended to up to 100 ships.

...

"Hiss..." Su Wang took a breath.

Looking at the basic attributes of the warship, it is mediocre and has no highlights.

But this special ability is so powerful that it is a bit scary.

When two mutual aid warships are within a certain range of each other, their basic attributes can be improved, and the upper limit is as high as 100 ships.

That is,

When 100 cooperative warships are within 200 meters of each other,

The basic attributes of each cooperative warship will reach 150 points of strength, 1 durability, and a speed of 30 knots.

I'm afraid that even ordinary large warships don't have such high basic attributes.

The power that can be generated by ship-borne attack facilities is mostly increased according to the strength of the ship.

Restrain your excitement.
Su Wang followed closely to the facility manufacturing plant on one side of the shipyard.

制造了78门船载子母巨炮、14件声呐雷达、13件船体装甲、10门渔网炮以及13件增速涡轮。

In an instant, a large amount of fish disappeared like flowing water.

If the two waves of red tides had not accumulated a large amount of resources, it would probably take half a lifetime to obtain them by fishing alone.

Complete all the manufacturing.
After leaving the factory, Su Wang immediately went to the south side of the dock to enter the port.

The 23 residents who had been waiting here immediately saluted when they saw Su Wang arriving.

After Su Wang returned the gift, he asked them to wait on the side while he went to drive the Wangxin to deploy the core of the ship.

After sailing 50 meters away from the port, Su Wang controlled the Wangxin to drop a ship core every few distances.

After the core of the ship fell into the water, it expanded and unfolded rapidly, just like building blocks, and within just a few minutes it turned into ships.

This was also the first time that Su Wang witnessed such a scene, and he couldn't help but marvel at it.

After personally equipping 10 fishing boats that were not operated by the captain with fish net cannons, he used the automatic mooring function of the dock to dock these boats nearby.

Su Wanger later came to the port and prepared to arrange personnel for these ships.

At this moment, the eyes of the 13 captains and the other 10 ordinary residents were shining with anticipation.

They had already vaguely guessed in their hearts that the ship that had just appeared seemed to be specially prepared for them by the lord.

Su Wang came in front of these people and after thinking for a moment, he pointed out 10 ordinary residents individually.

"Those smaller boats are fishing boats. Ordinary people can manage them. You can also find some helpers."

"I will rent it to you at a price of 200 fish coins per month.

For every live fish you capture and hand in, I will give you a certain amount of Fish Coins based on the fish's grade."

As soon as Su Wang finished speaking, the 10 ordinary residents responded respectfully.

"Thank you, my gracious Lord."

As they had lived at the Fire Shrimp Wharf for a long time, they naturally knew about the existence of the fishing fleet.

But at the Fire Shrimp Wharf, this was a good job that was not theirs.

Then Su Wang looked at the 13 awakened residents of the fleet.

"You can combine the souls of these 13 warships. I will regularly assign you tasks to earn merit."

"These warships still belong to Fool's Wharf. If you want to leave Fool's Wharf, you must return them."

However, after hearing this, the 13 new captains

They couldn't help but look at each other, and the leader Scott stepped forward and bowed.

"Merciful Lord, I am able to become a shipmaster thanks to your grace."

"I, Scott, hereby swear to be loyal to you for the rest of my life."

As soon as Scott finished speaking, the other 12 captains followed suit.

"My Lord, I, Fukza, will always be loyal to you."

"Merciful Lord, I..."

"... "

Seeing this, Su Wang couldn't help but nodded with relief.

The fact that the 13 captains before him could directly express their loyalty made it worthwhile for him to use the precious concentrated captain baptism potion.
