Chapter 77 The Appearance of the New Battleship

The Goddess of Dawn and Eternal reached a verbal alliance agreement, and Cleo promised to do his best to help Ethan get whatever he wanted on the island, but the promise was limited to him personally, and he would not use his crew to make jokes.

His statement would make his crew more loyal. Several sailors rescued by Ethan immediately expressed their opinion that they would do their best to help Ethan with his captain to report on Ethan's kindness to rescue them from the island.

Ethan did not refuse. It was actually a good thing for the other party to be willing to repay favors with this. Moreover, he would not really let the other party be cannon fodder to help him break the right path. He just needs the Eternal to provide some labor.

"I don't know what exactly is on this island, but I think it's enough to meet the needs of both of our ships."

Ethan finally gave a piece of advice before returning to his ship: "By the way, the water on this island is a bit weird, and it's better not to use it before it's really figured out...especially for drinking."

Cleo nodded and said he knew that he was not going to let any crew members leave the Eternal again. Anyway, the ship was still in sufficient supplies, and for adventurers of their level, drinking water was the easiest problem to solve - any slightly larger ship would be equipped with water purification devices, and they would extract and create clean water directly from the sea for crew members to use.

After reminding Cleo, Ethan flew back to his Goddess of Dawn. He did not walk back from the coast because he was not sure if he would be attacked after stepping onto the island.

So far, he has been deeply involved in the island and has slowly begun to be attacked. However, the previous temptations have made him realize that the energy of this island will mobilize energy to attack a target according to the situation. He is not sure whether he has been targeted by this force.

After landing on the deck of the Dawn Goddess, Ethan said Cleo's promise to Logan and Diana.

Diana didn't say anything, Logan thought more.

"Can you believe what this person said?"

"No." Ethan is not a naive person. He would not believe a stranger in vain: "But the other party expressed goodwill and could be treated as an ally before doing anything that threatens us."

It means that cooperation is OK, but you must maintain enough vigilance. A smile on the surface and stabbing the knife in the back is not something that is difficult to see. There is no formal legal provision in this world. The key factor that determines a person's behavior is the person's moral standard.

Under this situation, it is already unusual that the world has maintained a considerable degree of order and has not become a completely chaotic world.

"No matter what, I will take a normal night off first. The other party just arrived here and encountered setbacks again. I guess it will take a slowdown. We will wait until tomorrow to explore the interior of the island."

Ethan and the others have been prepared for a long time, but now they want to cooperate with Eternal and need to take care of this ally. Moreover, Diana also needs some time to learn some "basic knowledge", and exploring tomorrow is also in line with Ethan's needs.

So this day was spent in various discussions.

Diana has a more detailed understanding of the world and also has more knowledge of human nature. Ethan would not tell her these things before, because at that time Diana would think about everything in a good way and tell her that human nature is sinister and she would listen to it.

After experiencing many things personally, Diana began to accept this theory and realized that the world was not as beautiful as she thought. Diana was a little impacted. Fortunately, with Ethan's previous tips, there was not much fluctuation overall, and she gradually accepted a more "realistic" world.

This is something she had to understand. Considering that she would definitely return to her own world in the future, she would see more and worse things when she lived alone, and no one would enlighten her at that time.

In the original plot, Diana had lived in human society for decades, and had almost lost confidence in humans for a long time and began to turn to the neutral camp to watch everything quietly. If it weren't for the appearance of the Destroyer, she might have been quietly lurking among humans.

In the final analysis, the worldview has been impacted. Now she can better accept all this. Perhaps Wonder Woman will be very active for a long time.

In that case, some interesting changes may occur, but Ethan's current energy is not on this matter, or even on the island that is about to be explored.

He took out the sneak suit he got from the assassin, spread it on his laboratory bench, and introduced the approximate abilities of this equipment to Logan and Diana in detail.

“It looks like it was made of some special polymer material…”

This is like a tight suit with breastplate, arm guards, shin armor and other protective parts. It doesn't look big, and only thin people can wear it. Logan tried it and found that even his figure could easily put this set of equipment on.

"Are you sure this wasn't something you brought back from some world with high tech?"

Diana couldn't see anything, but Logan felt that the appearance of this thing was full of a future aura. Although there were magical things like magic stones in this world, the equipment in front of him seemed not just a matter of magic.

"That assassin came back from the next sea."

Ethan hadn't known much about this sea area, especially this suicide route, so he didn't find anything wrong. But now thinking about it, although the ship driven by the assassin could dive underwater, except for this, the ship had no strange places, and it was nothing big compared to his own ship.

At that time, he did not realize something was wrong, and at this time he realized that something was wrong.

This route is far more dangerous than imagined. Even if he drives from another direction towards the Central Island, the more he walks, the less dangerous it becomes.

"That guy's ship is so ordinary... It's usually like this kind of ship everywhere when you go to this sea. That ship should be just used to disguise your identity."

Ethan, who figured this out, understood that the suit in front of him represented the strength of the next sea area. He began to infer the general situation of the next area based on this thing.

"Although I'm not sure if this thing is a mass equipment that everyone has, even if it's considered high-end equipment that some people can have, it means that most adventurers have similar low-end alternatives."

Cleo's equipment can prove this. He does not think that what Cleo has is a rare rare thing in the next sea.

“So…what will the next sea look like?”

"Maybe the sailing boat will be completely eliminated."

Ethan believed that pure wooden sailing ships could not reach the end of this route, and even if they could barely reach the back, they would fall into great danger.

On the Central Island, he had seen some ships with metal skins added to the propeller made by magic stone technology. Although he did not see a real all-metal structure ship, this tendency was already very obvious.

"You have to determine what kind of ship the new ship should be as soon as possible."

Logan's words make a lot of sense. Ethan wanted to design his new ship based on the situation on this route, but now it seems that his previous plan is still too conservative. He cannot always passively adjust his ship according to the environment. In that case, he doesn't know how many times he will change the ship.

"Although there are many problems, I have to change to an excellent ship this time."

The all-metal structure is already without any suspense, and he can wait even if he has to waste one or two years to build it.

The displacement is not yet determined, and the specific structure of the ship has not been decided. What is certain is that he needs to integrate all his technology into this new ship.

"What is certain is that the new ship will definitely be a warship."

In such a world, it is impossible to build a yacht? Considering the possible maritime conflict, warships are almost an inevitable choice.

"Although the inside is a completely different story, we can discuss what appearance should we choose?"

The few people present were energetic, and even if they didn't sleep, it would not affect their actions the next day. After a while of discussion, the topic went off the wrong way.

From worrying about what kind of warship should be built in the next sea area, to what kind of appearance should be chosen to suit the aesthetics of several people.

"A warship?"

Diana's impression of warships is still in the sailing era, so she has no suggestions. Instead, Logan has a lot of feelings for some weapons from World War I and World War II.

“Is the tonnage too large?”

"At present, a larger tonnage may not be a bad thing." He thought before, he thought it would be enough to build a 10,000-ton steel warship, but looking at the suit on the table, it might be safe to build a bigger and stronger one.

"How about Iowa?"

Considering the survivability at sea and the combat effectiveness of a single ship, battleships are the first choice, and the Iowa-class should be the last battleship, and it is also the battleship that Logan is most familiar with.

Ethan touched his chin and recalled the Iowa-class style in his impression, which was generally in line with his aesthetic, although he personally prefers the Hood battlecruiser and the Bismarck-class battleship.

Of course, no matter which one you choose, it is actually only the same appearance or even just the same core, and the core is not the same. Not to mention Tony Stark's black technology, there must be more powerful magic stone technology and a magic array that Ethan will definitely arrange.
