Chapter 416 Power Cabin

"...Master, I have subdued a whale shark in the far sea, let it escort the master when the time comes!"

"...Hehe, the shark group that expelled me once looked like that now. Under my fast swimming, the shark king was still killed by the bite?"

"Three hundred miles away from the sea area on the south side of the island, the Shui tribe can already be ordered by the master!"

"... Next, it's the east side!"

"It seems that there are humans on the island? After seeing me, I dare not come to the beach... This is the master's deterrent!"

"Master, the east side has been cleared. I didn't expect that there are still sea beasts who would rather die than surrender. This is a close battle, and the subordinates have to work hard!"

"Owner……"

Stop reading, master, stop reading... Xu Le smashed the nails with empty eyes.

Every time Ao Wu utters a sentence, it means that a group of sea fish that are raging in the ocean are subdued or killed by him.

With [The Theory of Evolution] further opening up the speed evolution, Ao Wu's flexibility is increasing day by day.

The idle sharks, whales and other seafood have been difficult to keep up with his speed.

Being targeted by this scourge, the end is nothing more than surrender or becoming fish food, and I am afraid that more people will become fish food.

The "evenly matched" battle he talked about, Xu Le learned later when chatting with the battle pets [disciples] in the group, was fought with a king squid that was more than ten meters long.

The king squid that is routinely observed can reach a maximum size of more than 20 meters, and it is an out-and-out sea monster.

With slender arms and feet and flexible muscles, even whales can be included in their diet.

The ancient people didn't know much about the ocean. Even a giant squid five or six meters long was an invincible sea monster in the eyes of the crew.

The arms and legs that can drag a whale into the deep sea and crush small or even medium-sized ships like twisting a towel don't take much effort.

Going forward for more than a hundred years, every year, sailors will be buried under the tentacles of the king squid.

There are countless legends derived from this, and the king squid even has the name "Kraken" and its mythological form is widely circulated.

With Ao Wu's size, it is almost impossible to hunt down a 15-meter-long king squid, but he did it.

It can only be said that the skill blessing is terrifying...

But I can too!

If it's a sea encounter on a boat, and after a fierce battle, hunting down a king squid... Isn't this a proper surge in popularity!

Ao Wu, Ao Wu...

Dun, Dun, Dun, Xu Le wheeled the hammer, expressionless.

This is my [disciple]...

not angry not angry...

At any rate, it is the heart of a war pet...

But still so angry!

Don't you know what a master of high skill is called... Well, Ao Wu probably really doesn't understand.

Ao Wu continued to mutter: "Master, my subordinates already have [-] big fish. Next, I will clean up the sea area on the north side for my master!"

As expected of you, you look like a war lunatic... Xu Le asked in the group: "It's been hard work, why don't you take a break? Work and rest."

"Being loyal to the master, there is no reason to be lazy and greedy!" Ao Wu was full of anger, and his voice was deep and dark.

It makes sense, I was speechless for a while...

If it was in ancient times, this would be a loyal and important minister who could be used for the brachial thigh.

That's right...

Forget it, kill it as you like, at worst, I will sail farther away.

When Ao Wu reported to Xu Le about his next hunt, the giant spirit was lying on his back in the sun in the small courtyard, drying his belly hair.

Bajie took the small dried fish that Meng Yiyi fed him and tasted it.

Xiao Hei crawled on the glutinous rice's back for the coolness, felt his tail being scooped by something, and suddenly tensed his hind legs and kicked.

Heixiu, who came to join in the fun, formed a ball and was kicked aside, turned to ask Infinity for help, but Infinity ignored it, and fell asleep by himself.

The rest of the war pets have jobs and work, and those who don't have jobs are on vacation.

You learn from other battle pets!Introversion is not an option... Xu Le sighed, and the sea breeze blew.

Hurry up, if you don't build a big boat, when you go to sea, I'm afraid you won't be able to find any fun other than floating.

The construction of the cabin has already started, and the bottom layer is separated to form a section of the bottom cabin. The bottom cabin is attached to the keel, and the height is about one meter.

Each section of the bilge is built with wooden walls to isolate each other. Xu Le filled the gaps with fiber and ash to make them waterproof and airtight.

In this way, even if a certain part of the hull is damaged during navigation, it will only affect a local area in a short period of time, and the water leakage will not spread, and the loss can be easily controlled.

The bilge can also be filled with sand and ballast to lower the center of gravity and keep the hull stable.

Above the bilge is the cabin on the second floor. The thick beams rise from the ground to support the independent space, and at the same time, they are intertwined with each other to form a stable network.

This netted wood lap can also increase the strength of the hull.

The pressure of flowing water in all directions acts on the hull, and after being absorbed by the transverse reinforcement of the ribs, it can be further buffered by the internal structure.

Even in the face of strong winds and waves, the complex internal beam and wood structure can perfectly unload the force. This boat is like an extension of Xu Le's body.

The cabin is simply divided into the rear cabin for cargo and weapons, and the front cabin for people to rest.

The front cabin is also equipped with a lookout hole. When riding the wind and waves, the waves will hit your face, and the scenery will never be bad.

Xu Le specially partitioned the back cabin and built a hollow frame with wood, surrounded by layers of closed storage rooms.

The lower side of the frame can directly lead to the bilge, and this bilge is directly connected to the stern, where several circular holes are sawn out.

"The hole we use for the rudder goes all the way to the deck."

Xu Le squatted down and patted the edge of the round hole. This place has been surrounded by healed boards to form a barrel-shaped pipe.

Guaiac boards are hooped extremely tightly with iron hoops, making them airtight.

"Guaiac wood is rich in oil and has the characteristics of wear resistance and foam resistance. It can be used to make bearings and pipes, which can ensure the sealing and don't need to pay too much attention to lubrication.

"The wood is durable enough to wear and tear, so bearings and sets don't need to be replaced as often.

"We will process the bearings later, and continue to build the power cabin first."

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"Did I hear correctly? The power cabin?"

"It's the driving force! Yes, yes, yes!"

"Hahaha, sure enough, how could the steam engine made by Xu Shen be absent at this time?"

"Steam powered steamer, fire up!"

"So the surrounding storage room is used to store coal?"

"The shelf in the middle is used to fix the steam engine? Well, the one above the shelf should be the flue, leading directly to the deck!"

"It's awesome, hand the steamboat!"

"This is called professional!"

"The whole of Bermuda, open its arms to Xu Shen at this moment!"

"..."

Chapter 417 Cutting the Rope

The frame of the power cabin is just a prototype, and the main event is the steam engine installed inside.

Xu Le was not ambiguous on this point.

During this period of time, Awei's family brought back a batch of iron ore, and Xu Le opened the furnace to cast all the iron ore into high-quality steel.

The structure of the steam engine hasn't changed much, it's just enlarged several times.

The volume of the boiler and the fuel tank is enlarged proportionally, and more water vapor can be produced per unit time.

The steam engine installed on the section uses a power connecting rod to drive the workpiece to move, but the steam engine power components on the ship are different.

Xu Le made a sealed pipe with iron material. When the high-temperature steam gushes out from the boiler, it enters another cavity through the pipe.

If a strict structure is used to correspond, this cavity corresponds to the steam turbine of a steam ship.

In the hollow cavity, a bearing runs through it longitudinally, and several circles of forged iron tiles are connected to the surface of the bearing.

When steam is poured into the "steam turbine", these tiles will start to rotate under the drive of high-pressure gas to do work.

Rotating bearings transmit power to the stern paddles, which easily push through the water and propel the boat forward.

From the strictest point of view, each of these structures can be expanded and refined, but Xu Le doesn't want to pursue perfection in this.

The conditions on the island are limited, and the master craftsman Xu is already very satisfied with such a basic power unit that can be cast and forged with molten iron.

This is not a computer, add [-] plus [-], budget [-] into the card, and take everything home.

As long as it is enough, don't fix those fake ones.

Just when Xu Le created a combination of steam engine and steam turbine, Ao Wu had already pulled out a nest of predators in the sea.

It was a group led by great white sharks, the leader of which was two or three times the size of Ao Wu.

If encountered at sea, it is almost impossible for ordinary ships to escape their sharp teeth.

No, not even the need to use sharp teeth, just a slap of the shark's tail or a rampage with its body, and the smaller boats may capsize.

Ao Wu Shengsheng circled the great white shark to the point where it was out of strength, and then rushed forward directly, finishing it in one bite, simply and neatly.

The underlings of the giant great white shark have naturally become Ao Wu's thugs.

I feel like my pet disciple is better at developing power than me...

……

In addition to the set of power components of the steam engine, Xu Le also erected two sets of masts on the deck.

Although the output of coal is stable, the overall quantity is limited after all, while the wind energy at sea is endless.

When you usually go to sea, you can use the sea breeze that does not disperse all year round as power. When you need to go fast or encounter calm weather, you can use the steam engine.

Well, this is a hybrid boat, which can be licensed for new energy...

"Thigh, stitched!"

In the courtyard, Meng Yiyi straddled the courtyard wall, put her hands around her mouth as a horn, and shouted at Xu Le below.

She struggled to pull up a piece of leather beside her. This was the anaconda skin that was taken from the giant anaconda when she hunted it back then.

The anaconda skin that was cut during transportation was re-sewed into a steep triangle, and a solid wooden strip runs through one side horizontally as a skeleton.

Xu Le gave a thumbs up in Meng Yiyi's direction, the little cutie grinned happily, her teeth sharp.

"Black Star, you and the giant spirit can bring the sails here." He ordered in the group.

The leather sails were rolled into rolls, Xu Le installed them on the mast, pulled the rope, and the leather sails rose easily.

"We use streamlined hard sails for daily power. The hard sails have a high fault tolerance rate. Even if they are partially damaged, they will be stopped by the skeleton and will not be cracked."

The leather sails bulged in the wind, and the ship shook slightly.

That's a lot of strength...Xu Le let go of the rope, and the sail fell again.

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"The black leather sail has first-class visual effects."

"Xu Shen actually only said part of what he said. The schooner is good and can take advantage of the wind from all directions."
