showdown!I enjoy life on the island

As a result, Meng Yiyi, who heard the noise, jumped over before her thoughts turned around.

The cutie touches the processed bow armor, her eyes shine.

"Ironclad!

"Not only is it strong in defense, it can withstand direct artillery fire at close range, and the lethality of the impact is also impressive!

"When the iron-clad ships first came out, many wooden ships could be crushed just by bumping them, without even needing to fire their cannons!"

When the word "crushing" was mentioned, Meng Yiyi clenched her fists.

It really is a combination of offense and defense...

Lin Xihan suddenly felt that, in fact, she was the most pacifist in the entire courtyard...

Xu Le made a move, and Rua pulled a handful of cute hair.

"How can it be so violent? We use armor to protect ourselves.

"You see, when breaking through the wind and waves, the bow of the ship receives the greatest impact.

"No matter how I design the angle and structure of the bow, the material limit of the wood itself is there, and it is still easily damaged in strong winds and waves.

"So it makes sense to cover it with a layer of iron armor to cushion the impact."

Ding!Ding!Ding!

The sound of hammering iron kept ringing, and Xu Le kept hammering on the curved surface of the iron plate.

Based on his skills in [boat engineering], he processed the curved surface of the iron plate into a gentle saddle shape.

The upper half bulges outwards, and the lower half converges a bit, just cutting directly into the water.

Like a ball nose.

This structure can effectively reduce the wave-making resistance during navigation and increase the speed of the ship.

Well, the most important point is that it hurts enough to hit something.

……

Ancient Ship Academy.

A graduate student frowned.

"Bulbs?

"This structure...wouldn't reduce the maneuverability of the ship? Professor Xu Zhun's ship should focus on maneuverability, right?"

Tokofune took a sip of the mineral water in the flask.

“That being said, the key is design.

"If the angle is properly designed, the clipping effect of the bulbous bow on sea waves is greater than the additional resistance, and the benefits are positive!"

He put the bottle heavily on the table, "Your associate professor, the ability to control the structure of the ship is amazing!"

The graduate student opened his mouth in surprise: "This is outrageous..."

Then I felt a slap on the head.

Chang Chuan sternly shouted: "Then why are you still standing there?

"Hurry up and record the data!"

……

Xu Le continued to beat and beat.

The four iron plates were forged, and the remaining two iron plates were also processed into shapes that fit the sides of the bow.

In this way, the well-designed bow can be seamlessly connected with the wooden hull.

Just need to add some extra nails.

These things were left over when the ship was built before.

"Go, install."

Captain Xu Da called the Giant Spirit and Black Star to help carry it, and the Mayfly transported it in two trips to transport the extensions to the Xuankui.

He tied the soft vine rope around his waist, hugged the iron plate, and hung it down from the bow.

Then nail the iron plates one by one according to the planned position.

There is a distance between the steel bow and the wooden bow, which is used as a buffer layer.

After the completion of the Xuankui, the front end of the wood-colored hull was covered with thick iron armor, and the iron-blue bow looked like a sharp knife, protruding into the water.

A wave came up and smashed the bow of the ship.

There are also waves with more momentum. The front wave is turned up by the bulbous bow, and the back wave is directly beaten to death in the water.

No one can wave.

Except for the Xuankui, which is not at all in the waves.

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"It does work."

"Compared to the previous recording and broadcasting, the height of the waves hitting the bow of the ship is much lower."

"Isn't the function of the bulbous bow to separate the waves and push the water back to reduce the wave resistance?"

"No need to measure, just do the work directly, how many years old shipbuilding craftsman can do this?"

"Xu Shen can do this, isn't it a matter of course!"

"..."

[Boat engineering skills have been upgraded, the current level is Lv4! 】

Modifying the hull is also a part of [Ship Engineering] skills.

When forging the bulbous bow, Xu Le also refined the product through skills.

Iron materials directly soaked in seawater, without any protection, corrode at a speed that is not 01:30.

Well, but it only takes a year to survive at sea, and it can be maintained very frequently, but it can actually be very durable...

then--

[Metal proficiency skills have been upgraded, the current level is Lv5! 】

[Smelting skills have been upgraded, the current level is Lv5! 】

()showdown!I enjoy life on the island

Chapter 437 The keen sense of smell and mentality collapsed

[Metal Proficiency] The skill comes from the Earthwalker template, and after upgrading, it will be derived——

[The skills derived from the Navigator's template have been awakened - the earth's veins have been discovered! 】

Hmm... Earth veins are so mysterious, it's enough to talk about mineral veins.

This is a skill that can be used to explore mineral veins. The popularity value is used as firewood, and every [-] popularity points can be exchanged for one second of duration.

Except for high-consumption skills such as [Wave Taming], the exchange rate of other skills is not worth mentioning... Xu Le murmured in his heart.

【Earth Leys Exploration】Exploration can be carried out efficiently, and my mother no longer has to worry that I can't find metal ore!

With a series of skills related to smelting, Xu Le's material warehouse can be expanded by another wave.

[Smelting Technique] comes from the old hunter template, and a new derivative has appeared at this time——

[The skills derived from the Navigator's template have been awakened - self-smelting! 】

Ah... isn't this just human body refining?

There is no level limit, and there is no popularity exchange.

[Self-refinement] skill consumes the vitality that Xu Le absorbed into the body through the skill of [Replenishing Energy].

As long as the exogenous vitality is still in stock, the [Self-Smelting] skill can be activated without interruption.

Of course, you can also close it at will, which is convenient for Xu Le to spread his vitality through.

A faucet that can only be turned on but not turned off is not a good faucet...

In addition, the faucet can also be opened wide and small.

When actively burning vitality, it is equivalent to burning with a high fire, the vitality is consumed rapidly, and the improvement of skills to the body is also a raging fire.

When placed passively, the water flows slowly.

The consumption of vitality has eased a lot, and the improvement of the body has also become softer.

Hmm, so in fact this skill is not human body refining, but body refining?

Why do you want to use such a messy name, do you think my Chinese scores are not bad enough...

Without looking at the skill description, the vitality in Xu Le's body naturally began to burn.

[Self-smelting] Using his body as a furnace, he began to refine his cells.

Okay, it's itchy... crispy, numb... I'm going to be blocked from the live broadcast room!

Then this messy feeling was suppressed by [Unyielding Will].

Xu Le's heart is clear, and that worldly desire will disappear for a while.

[Unyielding will skill has been upgraded, the current level is Lv5! 】

Clam?That's okay too?

It's so outrageous...

[The skills derived from the Navigator's template have been awakened - group calm! 】

Fine……

This is probably the most confusing skill I have upgraded.

[Group calm] Skills and popularity are exchanged [-] to [-], which is also a ratio that is not painful to the current Xu Le.

The effect is the same as the name, to appease all members of one's own camp and keep them calm.

This is very valuable in the face of extreme conditions such as storms.

Lin Xihan and Meng Yiyi don't need this skill very much, their psychological quality is very good...

This skill is mainly used to suppress the beast's natural fear of the storm.

A group of pets and even legions who are absolutely calm and absolutely obey orders...

Xu Le's eyes twitched.

I don't fight for hegemony!

I go out to sea just to fish, so what's going on with all these messy skills?

Tucao return to Tucao, the effect of [self-smelting] is still continuing.

Xu Le could feel that his various qualities were slowly improving, far exceeding the natural gains from vitality.

So that's the difference between organized and unorganized...

Not right either.

[Self-refinement] is equivalent to having detailed theoretical guidance, and before this skill, the natural enhancement of vitality tends to be passive.

The efficiency is not high, and the degree of waste is not low.

Xu Le clenched his fists, his joints turned white, and he could feel the surging power in his body was still increasing little by little.

This feeling of... bulging all over... I want, I want...

【Unyielding will】.

【Unyielding will】.

【Unyielding will】.

want?What do you want!
