Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

Chapter 875: Chapter 566, Revolver Test Fire

[Wild Hare Small Aerial Ship (Orange)]

[Category: Magic Technology]

[Machinery Strength: Level 5]

[Abilities: Magic Structure, Drifts With The Wind]

[Magic Structure]: Magic technology that will not collapse or rout, immune to all negative states such as panic and silence, powered by magic energy.

[Drifts With The Wind]: This aerial ship can maintain its course with the wind.

(Description: Since ancient times, terrestrial races have always longed to soar into the skies. Although this dream was realized through large flying beasts and magic technology, on the other hand, the restless ‘scholars’ also attempted to develop a means to more conveniently transport larger numbers of people and goods to distant places—hence the birth of the aerial ship.)

Looking up at the aerial ship, information appeared before his eyes.

Based on the information displayed, the flight ship was more akin to a construct, given that their energy sources were the same.

The ship’s defense level had reached Level 5, which was considered quite high.

And he remembered, when he first made the “Stone Monster Construct,” its defense level was only Level 4.

But the Level 5 here probably refers to an iron-plated hull; for something like a hot air balloon, it would still be relatively weak.

For combat, it would require some strategic thinking; it was not possible to just brute force head-on.

The aerial ship had two abilities, namely [Magic Structure]and [Drifts With The Wind].

The introductions were very clear and pertained to the flight ship’s own capabilities.

The aerial ship hovered in the air, two meters above the ground, with a rope ladder dangling from the hull.

Quite unimpressive.

But it was understandable. According to the introduction, this was the earliest goblin transport vessel for cargo, so it being simple was to be expected.

If needed, it could also be redecorated.

He stopped the maids who were trying to follow him up.

Fang Hao, accompanied by Demitrija, boarded the aerial ship.

The spacious wooden deck, almost at the stern tower, was indeed not much different from a sea ship.

The hull was about ten meters long and nearly five meters wide, considerably larger than the small fishing boats he had seen at Fu Lei’s place.

Stepping forward to roughly measure it, without considering the space of the stern tower, one side of the deck could accommodate three or four cannons.

Eight cannons on both sides combined, but placing them on both sides wouldn’t be very effective. If there were to attack the Great Cemetery of Odys, cannons on one side would be sufficient.

The other side would be for shooting one’s own people.

Calculating in his mind, Meatfist arrived with the blacksmith Kulyn, climbing up the rope ladder.

“My lord, the cannons have been brought down below,” Meatfist spoke.

Fang Hao, leaning on the railing, glanced downwards.

Skeleton Warriors were tying the cannons tightly with hemp rope, the other end bound to the skeletal frame of a Bone Dragon.

They planned to use the Bone Dragon to transport the cannons onto the aerial ship.

“Mhm,” Fang Hao nodded.

He didn’t bother with the skeletons hoisting the cannons, but continued into the stern tower with the others.

Located at the very rear of the ship, the stern tower seemed more like a steering area.

Inside was a circular helm, to the left was a row of mechanical buttons, and on the right were three slender levers.

This mix of retro vibe and technology really gave it a goblin magic feel.

Fang Hao looked at the buttons, which were not labeled with text but with symbols instead.

They presumably represented different functions.

It looked quite complicated.

At the same time, another idea occurred to him: the aerial ship had a control room, signifying that it required someone to operate it.

It was different than a construct that could move on its own.

Shit…

Given the current staffing situation of the territory, nobody knew how to operate such a vessel.

Fang Hao didn’t dare to touch anything recklessly, worried that the wrong button might make the aerial ship take off.

If it crashed directly into the city, the damage would be severe.

After checking the stern tower, he went out and descended the stairs into the cabin.

The interior of the ship was dimly lit, surrounded by sealed wooden and steel plates.

He brought out a Nightstone for lighting, only then could he see the interior structure clearly.

At the forward part was a wide empty hold, accounting for 60% of the interior space, likely intended for carrying cargo.

The rooms behind consisted of individual chambers, with the foremost one, situated below the stern tower, containing various precise machinery.

These machines connected to the Energy Core, the heart of the ship’s operation.@@novelbin@@

The rest of the rooms were empty.

Whether they were to become resting rooms, a kitchen, or bathrooms could be arranged later.

As he exited the cabin,

a dull thud echoed as the cannons were hoisted onto the deck by the Bone Dragon.

The entire aerial ship swayed for a moment.

Fang Hao looked at the cannons and said to the blacksmith Kulyn beside him,

“Find a way to secure the cannons firmly onto the ship.”

Kulyn nodded, “Understood, my lord.”

Earlier, Fang Hao wanted to test fire the cannons, but apparently, no one knew how to operate the flight ship.

The plan to test fire would have to wait until later.

After the inspection, Fang Hao climbed down the rope ladder.

Seeing Anjia and the maids below, full of anticipation, Fang Hao instructed, “Anjia, take them up to have a look. Just look around, but please don’t touch any equipment.”

“Sure thing.” After speaking, Anjia led a group of maids and Earth Spirit girls up the rope ladder.

Soon, exclamations of surprise came from the deck above.

Fang Hao showed a smile, then returned with Demitrija and a few other heroes.

On the way back, he consulted with Nelson about operating the aerial ship.

The answer he received was, a technician.
