Zhang Heng stood outside the door, quietly watching the black carriage disappear into the night again.
Then the door behind him was secretly opened a crack.
"Didn't I tell you to go to sleep?" Zhang Heng knew who it was without looking back.
The red-haired girl was very straightforward, "When I think of you going out mysteriously in the middle of the night without telling us, I'm so curious that I can't sleep."
"If you have the time to pry into my privacy, it's better to think about how to recruit enough people. We will go to sea in two months. I will find a way to get a sloop, but at least ten people are needed to steer it, especially It's the gunner, do you have any candidates for this?"
"No."
"..."
"When I make friends, I only care about loyalty, whether they fight hard or not, and never ask about their background!" Annie puffed up her chest and said proudly, but she lost her composure when she saw Zhang Heng's eyes, and added, "I'll go tomorrow Ask, just ask."
Pausing for a moment, the red-haired girl took out a small dagger from behind her again, showing a hint of coquettishness for the first time. It was the first time Zhang Heng saw a similar expression on Annie's face. She was usually more heroic than a man. Zhang Heng Heng has seen her walking around the house in underwear more than once, sometimes carrying a wine bottle, squinting at people who come in, very social, but she is rarely seen in this state.
"Well... thank you for letting me on board and helping me find a job. I see that the dagger on your body has a gap. I won it from a fight two days ago. I happen to be useless, so I will give it to you for self-defense. It's gone." The red-haired girl stumbled.
Zhang Heng was a little surprised, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just took the dagger and stroked the girl's disheveled red hair with his other hand.
...
Although Orff and others wanted to go to sea as soon as possible, the hull of the Sea Lion was severely damaged after several battles and had to be fully repaired. Even if the best carpenters on the island were assembled, the work would continue. For half a month, Zhang Heng was very quiet during this half month.
He basically stayed in the residence and didn't leave much. He even plowed a small field behind the door and planted vegetables. He had done this kind of thing on the desert island before, so he was very skilled at it.
Of course, Zhang Heng did not believe all of Fraser's words. Although the old pirate was very sincere that night, Zhang Heng knew that this just meant that he could not hold back. This was the first time that the latter took the initiative to visit him after being on the island for so long. , if it's just to express goodwill, there is no need for him to make a trip by himself.
Old foxes like Fraser and Orff, they are born leaders, have an innate charm, good at using the general trend to achieve their goals unconsciously, even when manipulating people's hearts, they can make You believe that he is doing it for your own good, but if you really believe in their words, you will only end up being deceived.
If Kidd's Treasure is really a game designed by Orff, the addition of Fraser will undoubtedly make the game more dangerous.
The best way now is to keep it unchanged, so after getting the warning, Zhang Heng didn't go to the carpenter named Kent, but he did make some preparations in private.
A man wearing a wig and a lace scarf around his neck came in from the door.
His name is Barr, and he is a well-known arms dealer on Nassau Island. He put two things wrapped in oilcloth, one long and one short, on the table, then he took the tea leaves from Malvin and raised his legs, "You If you want something, check the goods."
Zhang Heng opened the long oilcloth, and inside was a musket. Today's Europe is dominated by smooth-bore guns, but in fact, rifled guns were born in the 15th century, but they are far less popular than smooth-bore guns. The reason It is because the bullet loading is too troublesome. Basically, a smoothbore gun can fire three shots before a rifled gun can fire one shot, and people with small arms may not even be able to stuff the bullets into the muzzle.
However, rifled guns also have the advantages of rifled guns. Its effective range and shooting accuracy far exceed that of smoothbore guns.
Zhang Heng has always wanted to buy one as a spare, and it might be able to play an unexpected role when combined with his lv2 shooting skills at critical times.
In addition, Barr also brought three short muskets this time, plus the one in Zhang Heng's original hand, so that he has four short muskets on his body, which means that he can carry out four consecutive rounds. shot.
No way, in this era when a gun can only fire one bullet, Zhang Heng can only use this method to increase his firepower.
He wore a black coat, and carried two short muskets at his waist, and the other two in chest holsters.
Annie curled her lips aside, but in the end she had to admit, "Hmph, she looks pretty good, but I don't know how to fight."
Zhang Heng ignored the red-haired girl who was eager to try, and paid the weapon merchant 140 silver coins according to the agreed price.
Barr weighed the purse and said with satisfaction, "You can continue to come to me if you need it."
What Zhang Heng didn't expect was that he would hear a system prompt after completing the transaction.
[With more than three firearms, game points +3, you can go to the character panel to view related information...]
Zhang Heng still has a consistent game attitude, and he didn't deliberately brush away achievements. After entering this world, he has obtained a total of 17 points so far. In addition to the three points just obtained, eight of them are related to looting, and six points are related to nautical mileage.
Calculating at this speed, when this round of dungeons is over, he can easily get more than 200 points. This number is a bit scary, but Zhang Heng knows that this calculation is actually not accurate. Achievements are generally easier to get in the early stage than in the later stage. , but what is certain is that because the time has been stretched too much, he should have a lot more points than ordinary players this time. Of course, the price is that he has to stay in this world for a long time.
This small town called Nassau may also become a part of his body.
On the third day after Zhang Heng got the weapon, the Sea Lion finally completed its overhaul, and raised its sails again amidst cheers.
Orff stood at the bow of the ship and began his routine speech before each departure, "There should be no one on this ship who doesn't know the end of our trip, so I don't think I need to repeat this matter."
The pirates burst into laughter when they heard the words, but then they heard the helmsman change the subject, "This time we have recruited a lot of newcomers, some things are better explained clearly, we don't care about your past, we don't care what you have done Wrong, but since you have already boarded this ship, you are a member of this ship, and you must abide by our rules, especially at such a special moment, we need everyone to unite and concentrate their strength together, only Only in this way can we overcome the immediate difficulties, and in the process, if someone wants to play tricks or do tricks behind other people's backs, then he is the enemy of this ship, and we will treat the enemy mercilessly."
Orf paused, then continued, "Not long ago, I just got news that a traitor appeared among us. In view of the honor we once fought side by side, I would like to give him a chance to stand up on his own. Confess everything and accept everyone's trial, otherwise, I can't guarantee that something bad will happen to him."
