The correct way to open the elf

Chapter 342 Want it all

"The steel ingots for making armor plates and weapons are heated to high temperatures and then put into forging machines to be made into armor plates and weapons.

Then it goes through the quenching process here to ensure its strength and enhance its anti-corrosion ability.

The last step is to sharpen the weapons, which is the one over there. We can do it directly with machines here, so they don’t have to go through the trouble of taking it back.”

Feng Yu pointed at the assembly line below and explained it to the mermaids.

The mermaids looked at the pieces of armor and weapons coming off the assembly line and being stored into special boxes by the workers. They didn't know what words to use to describe their feelings.

"I've observed your weapons, and they're not that difficult. As long as the molds are adjusted, mass production will be no problem.

Considering the number of your warriors, we can produce all the steel weapons you need in just two months."

It took the mermaid princess a long time to react: "This... This is simply a miracle! It's unbelievable."

Feng Yu smiled but said nothing.

"But why don't I see the kind of weapons you use in Cattail City?"

Feng Yu was stunned, thinking that this girl with a fishtail has a very picky taste and even wants our weapons.

"That weapon isn't suitable for fighting in water. But we have an underwater long-range weapon that we developed for fishing, which I think should be suitable for you."

Feng Yu brought the mermaids back to the camp and asked a soldier to demonstrate the spear gun to the mermaids.

A speargun is not a firearm, but a fishing tool.

It is a device that uses a spring or rubber band as a power source to launch a spiral metal rod. It is very simple overall and is particularly suitable for shooting fish underwater. After increasing the elasticity and power, it can also be used as a long-range weapon underwater.

The biggest problem the mermaid is facing now is not high-level enemies, but harassment from scattered ordinary enemies like the elves in the Elf Forest.

Moreover, except for those super monsters that cannot be provoked, the rest of the marine creatures generally have no defense capabilities. Moreover, whether it is mermaids or mermen, large creatures are not very agile in moving in the water.

Then this kind of diving spear gun is a good choice for mermaids.

When you encounter the enemy, attack them first, or form a formation similar to a volley of guns, organize the soldiers to use spear guns in batches to ensure the continuity of the attack, and you can form a continuous attack in the water.

Although mermaids have water magicians, spellcasters are not the majority in any race except dragons, and the battle ultimately depends on ordinary warriors.

Although the attack range of this weapon is only 20 to 30 meters at most, and its accuracy is very low beyond 10 meters, it is still a rare long-range weapon for creatures that live in the water.

Feng Yu asked the soldiers to demonstrate to them what a volley of guns was, to open the eyes of the mermaids.

The mermaid princess called a warrior over and asked him to enter the pool to try it out. Only then did she realize that this weapon did have its uses.

"Did you invent this weapon just to catch fish?"

"Yes, what else can we do besides fishing?" Feng Yu asked back.

"Mr. Darren, your kind of... battleship...

I think it is very useful for us mermaids, because most of the aquatic creatures in the Abyss Plane, except for the murlocs, will not go ashore, and even the murlocs cannot climb onto your warships.

So whether it is for resting or as a place to store weapons, I think those movable steel battleships are very convenient.

With them, we mermaids have a safe and mobile home. "

Feng Yu looked at the mermaid princess with interest and said, "Your Highness, the plane war is imminent. Actually, you mermaids are lucky. The ocean is so big, and there is only one ocean plane, the Abyss Plane, where a large number of aquatic creatures live.

But we are different. We need to face many enemies in different dimensions and more dangers.

It is impossible for us in Cattail City to provide large-scale support to all the Grion creatures while fighting against the Planar War. I think you should understand this."

Feng Yu was just about to rub three fingers together to tell the mermaid princess that it was time to negotiate the price.

There's no problem selling the ship. You don't need power anyway, so it's fine to sell the empty shell. But this is not a relief center, so let's negotiate the price.

The mermaid princess was confused at first, but later she understood what Feng Yu meant and said, "Mr. Darren, what does Cattail City need? Your receptionist told us that you don't seem to need gold or silver."

This is also the main reason why the mermaid princess wants everything she sees. If Cattail City was like the goblins, only interested in money, the mermaid would not have it.

"Large, round pearls, precious corals, and artworks carved by mermaid craftsmen..."

Feng Yu quickly interrupted the mermaid princess and said, "We don't want any of those things. The Plane War has already begun. What's the point of having those things? Even if we take them to humans now, we probably won't be able to sell them."

"That……"

"A large amount of edible marine food, fish, shellfish, seaweed and the like. Also, marine minerals, any metals, special mineral sands, and associated gemstones will do.

You can provide us with some samples of these things, and we will give you a price list according to your needs. Then we can exchange them at equal value according to the prices in the list and each get what we need.

As for the transportation problem, we can solve it ourselves. We will also provide you with various tools for mining, cages for temporary storage of fish and seaweed, etc. ”

"Is that so? But it's difficult for us to provide these things on a large scale."

"It's okay, we can cooperate. You can help us drive the fish in the sea or help us catch fish.

You can also help us find places where seaweed grows. As long as you cut the roots of the seaweed in the water, we can collect it ourselves when the seaweed floats up. "

What's the big deal about having no food? If we can catch fish on a large scale in the ocean, then food won't even be a problem for Cattail City. How could Feng Yu not see this good opportunity?

"Can your ship enter the ocean?"

"Of course, what you saw yesterday were all boats we made specifically for defense and patrol on the Lengshui River."

Although Cattail City might not be able to build an ocean-going giant ship, a 300-500-ton offshore fishing boat would not be a problem. With mermaids helping with navigation, finding fish schools, and even setting nets, Feng Yu did not believe that he would not be able to catch any fish.

With a few more experiments, you should be able to improve fishing gear such as fishing boats and nets, and develop an effective fishing method.
